First photo of developing Exo-Planet

First image of a forming Exo-Planet less than 1000 times the age of the Earth and around a star 370 light years away. Given the catchy name of PDS70. The photo is taken by ESO's SPHERE Telescope which, using complex algorithms, filters sunlight leaving weak light from planets visible.
