Interesting paper out today by Efrem Maconi, @joaoalves.bsky.social et al.! They find that the Sun probably passed through a massive wave of interstellar dust and gas (the Radcliffe wave) around 11 to 18 million years ago. 🔭🧪 #milkyway #planetsci arxiv.org/abs/2502.16360

The Galactic Journey of our Solar System
Our sun and its planets crossed the Radcliffe Wave in the well-known Orion complex
The Galactic Journey of our Solar System 🌌✨🔭
An international research team led by Uni Vienna has discovered that the Solar System traversed the Orion star-forming complex, a component of the Radcliffe Wave galactic structure, approximately 14 million years ago. 🔍
