... 2000 July 13 . LP 944-20: A Failed Star Flares . ... Explanation: The tiny spot circled on the right actually represents a big astronomical discovery -- the first detected flare from a failed star. Failed stars, termed brown dwarfs in astronomers' parlance , are too low in mass to ignite nuclear hydrogen burning in their cores, yet still shine feebly as the energy from their gravitational collapse is converted to heat and light. ... How did a failed star produced such a high-energy flare ? ...

Armagh Observatory, 11th August 2015: Astronomers at the 29th International Astronomical Union General Assembly in Honolulu, Hawaii, have announced the discovery of the tenth transiting тАЬcircumbinaryтАЭ planet, a result that brings the number of such known planets into double digits. A circumbinary planet orbits two stars, and like the fictional planet тАЬTatooineтАЭ from Star Wars, the planet has two suns in its sky. ...

... Did you know that everything on Earth is made of stuff from stars? ... When atoms stick together, the group of atoms is called a molecule. ... Now, using a telescope called APEX, astronomers have found for the first time a molecule in space called hydrogen peroxide . ... But hydrogen peroxide is made of the same types of atoms as those in water (oxygen and hydrogen atoms), so the discovery of this molecule could be the key to unlocking the mystery of water in space! ...

Seven months ago, on Mar 19, 2008, at 09:12 Moscow time, a new star appeared on the sky. The Sun had already risen over the Russia, but people of the Western hemisphere might be able to see by their eyes a faint starlet near one of Bootes constellation stars. This starlet appeared and faded by an order of magnitude in a minute. Astronomers named it GRB080319B or, informally, the Naked-Eye Burst, as it was twice as bright as human eye can see a star. ...

An Ancient Universe: How Astronomers Know the Vast Scale of Cosmic Time . THE CHANGING UNIVERSE: EVOLUTION HAPPENS! . b) Changes in Stars . One of the great discoveries of modern science is that stars (like people) live only a measurable life-time and then die. Although the lives of the stars are enormously longer than the span of a human life, we can learn about the life story of the stars by studying them at many different stages in their life cycle, from birth to death. ...

Next: New Capabilities in the Astrophysics Multispectral Archive Search Engine . ... The Space Telescope European Coordinating Facility and the Canadian Astronomy Data Centre have started a project aimed at augmenting the way an astronomer can query the Hubble Space Telescope science archive. Today the HST archive contains more than 70,000 WFPC2 exposures. ... This approach is valid if the archive was to serve only the primary targets; it is certainly not prone to be a discovery tool. ...

... Moon . ... What can astronomers tell us about the different colors on the surface of Jupiter's moon Europa? ... We can use the colors of Europa s surface to tell us about the chemical compounds that make up the surface and subsurface of the jovian moon. Even before the first spacecraft made a close visit to Europa, astronomers on Earth used telescopes to study the moon and were able to use a technique called spectroscopy to determine that Europa s surface is composed mostly of water ice. ...
