Simulations of the evolution of the proposed ring system around the Centaur 2060 Chiron suggest that it has remained intact since Chiron’s injection into the Centaur region, likely within the past ~8.5 Myr.

Four high-latitude tethered prominences were observed in white light during the total solar eclipses of 2012 and 2013, each forming the core of a different type of coronal mass ejection as they evolved.

The unusually high 26Al/27Al abundance ratio of the solar system at formation can be explained if if the solar system was formed by a triggered star formation at the edge of a Wolf–Rayet bubble.

The first data release from SDSS-IV, DR13, makes publicly available the first 1390 spatially resolved integral field unit observations of nearby galaxies from MaNGA, as well as presenting data from eBOSS and APOGEE.

Deep, wide-field Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam photometry of two recently discovered satellites of the Milky Way, Columba I and Triangulum II, suggest both have exclusively old and metal-poor stellar populations.

JWST should be able to detect ~10–20 occultations per year of TRAPPIST-1 b and c, which occur as one planet blocks the thermal- and reflected-light signals of the other as it passes in front.
