Asteroids don’t just collide in our Solar System 💥 Using @hubbleesa, astronomers spotted the expanding debris cloud from a powerful asteroid collision around the nearby star Fomalhaut — just 95 light-years away. It’s a rare chance to watch how planetary systems evolve in real time, and a reminder that planet formation is anything but calm. 📹 @europeanspaceagency 🎞️ @NASA, ESA, @space_telescopes R.
