... Armagh Observatory, 24th March 2009: The International Space Station ( ISS ) has recently become the second brightest object in the night sky тАФ even brighter than the planet Venus, and second only to the Moon. Evenings will provide the chance of a spectacular view, if the sky is clear, as for the next few days the orbit of the ISS around the Earth repeatedly takes it over Ireland. ... At its best, it is now the second brightest object in the night sky. ...

... The remote planet Pluto and its moon Charon orbit the Sun at a mean distance of almost 6,000 million kilometres, or nearly fourty times farther out than the Earth. During a recent investigation by an international group of astronomers [1], the best picture ever of Pluto and Charon [2] was secured with the European Space Agency's Faint Object Camera at the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). ... The new HST image was taken when Charon was near its maximum elongation from Pluto (0.9 arcseconds). ...
