"Just over 300 light-years away is a star that's a lot like a very young
version of our Sun, with multiple exoplanets orbiting it. That's an
interesting find in itself. But what makes the system truly dazzling is
that it just became the first of its kind to be directly imaged, planets
and all.
On the night of 16 February 2020, astronomers using the Very Large
Telescope in Chile were able to obtain direct observations of two
enormous exoplanets on extremely large orbits around the star named TYC
8998-760-1."
