... The Galactic low-mass X-ray binary GS 2023+338 was discovered during the burst on May 22, 1989 with the Japanise satellite Ginga (aka Galaxy). The flux reached 17 crabs (this unit of flux measurement is an bright X-ray source, Crab Nebula) at 10-35 keV. ... No other radio telescope worldwide carried out multi-frequency measurements. ... Upon 14 days the radio flux fell below the detection level at the RATAN-600 in relation to the decrease of the X-ray flux. ...

Armagh Observatory, 30 July 2015: The sky above a nearby "failed star" or brown dwarf lying in the summer constellation Lyra shimmers with a beautiful green and yellow aurora ten thousand times brighter than the northern lights. ... Even a few years ago, brown dwarfs were thought by most astronomers to be incapable of emitting any significant radio emission, so its first detection came as a great surprise. ...

... Classical nova V2362 Cyg (N Cyg 2006, 21:11:32.34, +44:48:03.9, 2000 [position in ATel 928 is incorrect!] ) undergoes gradual increase of its brightness since middle of August, 2006 from the level of V = 11.9. ... Full width of Halpha line is 5900 km/s, and that one of Hbeta is 5300 km/s. We identified the strongest emission features as CIII+NIII blend centered on 4652A, [OIII]+NII blend on 5010A, NII+[NII] blend on 5708A, NaI+OI blend on 5920A. Absence of HeI lines at 6678 and 7065A is surprising. ...
