Analysis of the light curves of 1740 flare stars indicates that flare frequency and the total power of flares correlates with increasing relative magnetic feature coverage and contrast in F–M-type stars.

Investigation of 20 faint M31 satellites indicates they all quenched 3–9 billion years ago, in contrast to Milky Way satellites that are either faint with ancient quenching times, or luminous with recent quenching times.

An extremely slow fireball was recently observed travelling at just 11 km/s. This object was a “minimoon”, or a temporarily captured orbiter — an object gravitationally captured by the Earth-Moon system.

From photometry and proper motions from the Gaia Data Release 2, a 50° long stream of about 70 stars have been detected extending westward from the halo globular cluster M5.

SOHO observations of the hydrogen coma of comet C/2017 S3 (PanSTARRS) allow for an estimate of the size of the nucleus of the comet just before its final outburst and apparent disintegration.

Examination of 320 disk galaxies from the Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey suggests that, on average, bulge prominence decreases from early- to late-type disk galaxies, with similar prominence in barred and unbarred spirals.
