- Astronomers have seen a huge ribbon of dust in the young Beta Pictoris star system, just 63 light-years from Earth, in visible light for the first time.
- Nicknamed the 'Cat's Tail', the structure stretches about 1,000 astronomical units, or roughly 93 billion miles.
- New Hubble images suggest it may lie sideways across our view rather than stretching away behind the star.

New Hubble images suggest it may lie sideways across our view rather than stretching away behind the star. Scientists think it is the debris left when two Pluto-sized bodies collided, and the findings were published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.
