By means of this device scientists conducted the study found the stars, resulting in around a celestial body, astronomers have found a low level of carbon monoxide.

It is noted that the mass of the star HD 181327 is equal to 30% of the mass of the Sun, the celestial body is 160 light years from Earth in the constellation pictor. According to the researcher, the age similar to the Sun star is 23 million years, based on their findings, astronomers have the opportunity to find answers to most scholars interested in the question of how formed our Solar system is over 4.6 billion years.
