    Exciting New Images | Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera
    http://lroc.sese.asu.edu/posts/937
    Using a subset of the LRO data products, a new tool was developed that enables detailed design of future surface traverses. The tool integrates topography models
    from the Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) and Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) and surface temperature data derived from the Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment
    (Diviner). Using the local topography from NAC and LOLA digital terrain models and surface properties derived from results obtained during the Apollo and Luna
    missions, we can now estimate the energy required to traverse between different science and exploration targets using a terramechanics model. In addition, by
    integrating various LRO data products, we can examine the illumination conditions along the traverse at any point in time, which is important when simulating
    a rover’s energy use and storage.

    Super-Massive And Supersonic: The First Black Hole Studied With The Sardinia Radio Telescope — English
    http://www.inaf.it/...-and-supersonic-the-first-black-hole-studied-with-the-sardinia-radio-telescope
    Using the brand-new Sardinia Radio Telescope (SRT), a giant parabolic dish of 64 meters diameter, a team of astronomers from
    the Italian National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) and the University of Cagliari have produced a detailed image of a super-
    massive black hole proceeding at high speed towards the core of the distant cluster of galaxies designed as 3C 129

    The outer edge of a star's habitable zone a hard place for life
    http://phys.org/news/2016-07-outer-edge-star-habitable-zone.html
    New research is showing a dramatically different scenario for planets at the outer edge of a star's habitable zone.
    That boundary is a dangerous place for life, exhibiting long ice ages with only short bursts of a temperate climate,
    a scenario that would be unfavorable to the development of complex animal-like life (Simpler forms of marine life
    may be possible though).

    Stellar Outburst Brings Water Snow Line Into View | ESO United Kingdom
    https://www.eso.org/public/unitedkingdom/news/eso1626/
    The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has made the first ever resolved observation of a water snow line within a protoplanetary disc.
    This line marks where the temperature in the disc surrounding a young star drops sufficiently low for snow to form. A dramatic increase in the brightness
    of the young star V883 Orionis flash heated the inner portion of the disc, pushing the water snow line out to a far greater distance than is normal for
    a protostar, and making it possible to observe it for the first time. The results are published in the journal Nature on 14 July 2016.

    A Preferred Home for Disrupted Stars
    http://aasnova.org/2016/07/13/a-preferred-home-for-disrupted-stars/
    Observed “burps” from the shredding of stars by supermassive black holes suggest that this behavior is more common in an unusual type
    of galaxy. A new study has examined NGC 3156, an example from this galaxy type, to better understand what causes this preference.

    Enhancing astronomers’ ability to peer ever more deeply into the cosmos may hinge on developing larger space-based telescopes.
    A new concept in space telescope design makes use of a modular structure and an assembly robot to build an extremely large telescope
    in space, performing tasks in which astronaut fatigue would be a problem.

    The robotically assembled modular space telescope (RAMST) design is described by Nicolas Lee and his colleagues at the California
    Institute of Technology and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in an article published this week by SPIE, the international society for
    optics and photonics, in the Journal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems (JATIS).

    Astronomers discover a highly inflated sub-Saturn extrasolar planet
    http://phys.org/news/2016-07-astronomers-highly-inflated-sub-saturn-extrasolar.html
    An international team of astronomers led by Joshua Pepper of the Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania,
    has detected an extremely inflated sub-Saturn exoplanet orbiting a bright subgiant star. The newly discovered
    alien world is one of the most inflated, least dense planets known to date. The findings were presented in
    a paper published July 6 on arXiv.org.

    The team used the Kilodegree Extremely Little Telescope (KELT) to observe a bright subgiant star named HD 93396
    (KELT-11), which is located some 320 light years away. They were looking for transit signals indicating the presence
    of a planet circling this distant star. KELT was chosen for this job as it can observe stars generally brighter than
    those observed by other ground-based surveys.
