The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope will begin regular survey operations by 2022 and, over the nominal 10 years of observations, will produce 32 trillion observations of 20 billion galaxies and a similar number of stars.

A radial-velocity study is conducted for three systems (Kepler-25, -65, and -68) with similar architectures: a giant-planet companion exterior to a compact, multiply transiting system of sub-Neptune planets.

Models indicate that black-hole binaries that are ejected and later merge ex situ form in star clusters of a characteristic mass M ~ 105.3 M☉, whereas binaries that merge in situ form in more massive clusters, M ~ 105.7 M☉.
