Summary edit
| Description |
English: This artist's concept depicts "heartbeat stars," which have been detected by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope and others.
The illustration shows two heartbeat stars swerving close to one another in their closest approach along their highly elongated orbits around one another. The mutual gravitation of the two stars would cause the stars themselves to become slightly ellipsoidal in shape. |
