A new study from the University of St Andrews reveals that giant, free-floating planets could form their own miniature planetary systems. Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers observed isolated objects—5 to 10 times Jupiter’s mass—not orbiting any star. The findings suggest these planet-like bodies might host their own tiny systems, formed
