During a scheduled contact with NASA's Kepler space telescope on Thursday, July 28, the team found the photometer—the camera onboard the spacecraft—powered off.
The photometer was turned on again and the flight system returned to autonomous science operations on Monday, Aug. 1. We will confirm that science operations have
been resumed within a week. The team is currently investigating the cause; the spacecraft is otherwise operating normally.

The Kepler spacecraft is currently in the tenth observing campaign of its second mission, called K2. Kepler’s primary mission ended in 2013 but more exoplanet and
astrophysics observations continue with the K2 mission, which began in 2014. To-date, the K2 mission has identified more than 450 new planet candidates, of which
128 have been verified as bona fide planets.

In June, NASA Headquarters announced that the K2 mission is to continue science operations through the end of the FY19, by which time the on-board fuel is expected
to be fully depleted.

Animation visualising Rosetta’s two-year journey around Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko.

The animation begins on 31 July 2014, during Rosetta’s final approach to the comet after its ten-year journey through space,
and finishes at 9 August 2016, before the details of the end of mission orbits were known. A visualisation of the trajectories
leading to the final descent to the surface of the comet on 30 September will be provided once available.

Astronomers have just released a list of the 20 best candidates we have for a 'second Earth', saying
that if we want to find life beyond the Solar System, these are our absolute best shots (that we know of).
