“There may be hundreds of small seed planets - or planetesimals - which grow in the disk of matter around a star.”

“The universe has told us the most common types of planets are small planets, and our study shows these are exactly the ones that are most likely to be orbiting Alpha Centauri A and B.”

“Our field is very focused on finding Earth 2.0, and anything we can do to narrow the search is helpful.”

“I've got an L3 bulging disk and degenerating disk. It's bulging in two places. Yeah, it's not good.”

“I played with a herniated disk that I didn't find out was herniated until I tore my meniscus.”

“Every type of ring behavior we have seen around Jupiter, Uranus, or Neptune can be found in orbit around Saturn. And Saturn's ring system offers the greatest promise of understanding processes in operation within all disk systems, not just those found around planets.”
