Researchers using data from the Hubble Space Telescope have made a strange discovery: a “ghostly light” surrounding our solar system. When light from stars, planets, and even the glow of starlight scattered by dust is accounted for, there’s still some “extra” light observed and astronomers are trying to work out where it’s coming from.
There’s support for this idea from the NASA New Horizon mission, which flew past Pluto in 2015 and is now heading out into interstellar space. As it traveled past the planets of the solar system and beyond, the mission did detect a faint glow of background light, though this glow wasn’t as strong as the recently found glow.
