Is the above really true? All signs point to 'Yes." Mini planets resembling our solar systems Jupiter and Saturn were recently discovered. They were discovered using a magnification technique known as gravitational microlensing.
Columbus, Ohio -- An international team of astronomers has discovered two planets that resemble smaller versions of Jupiter and Saturn in a solar system nearly 5,000 light years away.
“Theorists have wondered whether gas giants in other solar systems would form in the same way as ours did. This system seems to answer in the affirmative.” The fact that astronomers found the planets during the first event that allowed such a detection suggests that these scaled-down versions of our solar system are very common, he added.
