Submillimeter-Array observations of giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in NGC 300 indicate that these star-forming regions are similar to GMCs in the disks of the Milky Way and other nearby spiral galaxies.

A series of improvements in the calibration of the photometry for 213 high-redshift Type Ia supernovae will improve estimates of the equation of state parameter for dark energy models.

8 new long-period gas giants are found in a search of 123 exoplanetary systems for companions, bringing the occurrence rate for the sample to 52% for 1-20 Jupiter-mass companions at 5-20 AU.

A large number of deeply embedded low-mass young stellar objects were mapped out in eight southern bright-rimmed clouds. Their detection implies recent star formation in these clouds.

Analysis of the Cosmic Void Catalog shows that the size distribution of simulated cosmic voids in the universe is very similar to the galaxy log-normal mass distribution also obtained from numerical studies.

The Large Early Galaxy Census (LEGA-C), a spectroscopic survey of ~3200 galaxies with redshifts z = 0.6 − 1.0 and stellar masses >1010 solar masses, will let us map stellar content at large lookback time.
