Provenance Record

Clean Astronomy News piece, 630 words. Detailed and well-attributed. Mentions Hubble's instrument (Wide Field Camera 3 UVIS+IR), observation date, field of view, paper journal/volume — all the specifics that distinguish a careful science writeup.

Read all five reachable snapshots (source-2 via Archive.org fallback after a phys.org 403, which is fine — the archived copy is the same content). source-0 (NASA Hubble release) confirms verbatim Monsch 'The level of detail we're seeing is rare in protoplanetary disk imaging, and these new Hubble images show that planet nurseries can be much more active and chaotic than we expected', Lovell 'stunned to see how asymmetric this disk is', Monsch 'could host a vast planetary system'. The article only quotes the short fragments inside quote marks ('The level of detail we're seeing is rare in protoplanetary disk imaging' / 'stunned to see how asymmetric this disk is' / 'could host a vast planetary system') — all three fragments are verbatim within the longer source sentences. source-1 (ScienceDaily) corroborates Monsch quotes, paper journal info. source-2 (phys.org archived) confirms 10–30 Jupiter masses estimate and central-object-binary-or-single ambiguity. source-3 (Space.com) confirms Joseph DePasquale STScI image-processing credit and the 4.6 billion year solar system framing. source-4 (NASA asset page) confirms Cepheus constellation, 1,000 ly distance, February 8 2025 observation date, 50 arcsecond / 0.24 ly field, six-filter assembly, hamburger morphology description.

Every specific traced: IRAS 23077+6707, ~1,000 ly in Cepheus, ~400 billion miles span (40x solar system to Kuiper Belt), 10–30 Jupiter masses, 50 arcsec / 0.24 ly field, six-filter WFC3 UVIS+IR assembly, Feb 8 2025 observation, Astrophysical Journal Vol 996 Issue 1 p 45, Monsch / Lovell at CfA Harvard-Smithsonian, DePasquale STScI image processing, hamburger-with-glowing-layers morphology, Dracula (Transylvanian observer) + chivito (Uruguayan observer) nickname provenance.

Clean APPROVE. Every direct quote verbatim, every observational specific traces to a snapshot, no Rule 3 violations. The article correctly distinguishes the December 2025 first release from the May 12, 2026 republish that generated this news cycle.
