A study of two stealth coronal mass ejections (CMEs) — eruptions from the Sun that have no obvious low coronal signature — suggests they are likely to be sympathetic CMEs triggered by a nearby eruption in the active region.

More than 600 high-velocity stars are identified in the Gaia DR2 data, including 28 nearby (less than 6 kpc) late-type hypervelocity stars with over a 99% possibility of being unbound.

Keck Telescope observations show that Sgr A* reached much brighter flux levels in 2019 than ever seen at near-infrared wavelengths, possibly indicating a period of heightened activity or a change in Sgr A*’s accretion state.

Hubble and Gemini scattered-light images of the HD 191089 debris disk reveal two components: a ring resembling the Kuiper Belt in radial extent (~25 AU in width, centered at 46 AU) and a halo extending to ~640 AU.

ALMA observations probing below the ammonia cloud deck of Jupiter show that the erupting plumes in the South Equatorial Belt bring up ammonia gas from the deep atmosphere.

Models based on the 10 binary black hole mergers detected by LIGO/Virgo in its first two observing runs indicate a black hole binary merger rate density of R = 53.2 (-28.2 +55.8) per cubic Gpc per year.
