Data from GALEX observations of the enigmatic variable star KIC 8462852 show no coherent near-UV variability in the system on 10–100 s or month timescales, but a 3% decrease in brightness the following year.

Revised host-star radii measured in the K2-HERMES project cast severe doubt on three candidate planets, all of which now have inferred radii well in excess of the largest known inflated Jovian planets.

Analysis of a new sample of 15 Type Ia supernovae at redshift z > 1 have led to a factor of ~3 improvement in the determination of the expansion rate at z = 1.5, reducing its uncertainty to ~20%.

New analysis of data from the Pierre Auger Observatory provides evidence for anisotropy in the arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays — indicative of excess arrivals from strong, nearby sources.

The HR 4796A ringlike debris disk is revealed by Hubble to be embedded within a much larger, morphologically complex, and biaxially asymmetric exo-ring scattering structure.
