The globular NGC 6362 contains spatially mixed first- and second-generation stars. The Na distribution for the stars is bimodal, with the Na-poor (Na-rich) stars populating the bluest (reddest) RGBs.

Analysis of fluxes and spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 2214 blazars is used to verify systematic SED trends, like the anticorrelation between radio luminosity and synchrotron peak frequency.

Submillimeter-Array molecular observations indicate that the variable protostar in the NGC 1333 star-forming region exhibits a high-velocity jet composed of a series of molecular “bullets”.
