‘Evidence’ of two planets possibly sharing same orbit around their star found

Astronomers have discovered what could be two planets sharing the same orbit around their star, according to a study published in Astronomy and Astrophysics. Using a telescope in Chile, the Spanish-led team observed a cloud of debris in the same orbit as a confirmed planet circling a star in the constellation Centaurus. The scientists suspect that the debris is either a planet in formation or remnants of a planet that once existed. Planets sharing the same orbit have been theorized but have never been detected until now.
