Team discovers major supercluster of galaxies hidden by Milky Way
http://phys.org/news/2016-11-team-major-supercluster-galaxies-hidden.html

An international team of astronomers has discovered a previously unknown major concentration of galaxies in the constellation Vela,
which they have dubbed the Vela supercluster. The gravitational attraction from this large mass concentration in our cosmic neighbourhood
may have an important effect on the motion of our Local Group of galaxies including the Milky Way. It may also help to explain the direction
and amplitude of the Local Group's peculiar velocity with respect to the Cosmic Microwave Background.

The discovery was based on multi-object spectroscopic observations of thousands of partly obscured galaxies. Observations in 2012 with
the refurbished spectrograph of the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) confirmed that eight new clusters reside within the Vela area.
Subsequent spectroscopic observations with the Anglo-Australian Telescope in Australia provided thousands of galaxy redshifts and revealed
the vast extent of this new structure.

NASA’s Flying Observatory Expanding New Frontiers in the Solar System and Beyond

NASA’s Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, SOFIA, will soon be studying Neptune’s giant moon, Triton, and following-up on Hubble’s recent sighting
of water plumes on Jupiter’s moon Europa. According to recently completed plans for the 2017 observing campaign, about half of the research time for SOFIA will
run the gamut from studies of planets to observations of comets and asteroids orbiting other stars and supermassive black holes in the centers of galaxies beyond
our own. The other half will focus on star formation and the interstellar medium, the areas of dust and gas in the universe, including a vast turbulent region
encircling the center of our Milky Way galaxy.

Very bright fireball over the South of Spain on 15 Nov. at 2:55 UT (3: 55 local time). It belongs to the Southern Taurids meteor shower.
The event took place during the Super Moon and was produced by a fragment from Comet 2P/Encke that hit the atmosphere at about 110.000 km/h.
The bolide began at a height of about 108 km over the province of Granada and ended at an altitude of 60 km over the province of Jaen.

Kepler Mission Manager Update: K2 Marching On With Campaign 11
http://www.nasa.gov/...ure/ames/kepler/kepler-mission-manager-update-k2-marching-on-with-campaign-11

Kepler’s K2 mission is now in the midst of its eleventh campaign, observing a patch of sky in the direction of the constellation Sagittarius.
During this campaign, it will observe 14,250 new targets, including the Galactic Center and Saturn's moons Titan and Enceladus.

Campaign 11 began on Sept. 24, but was interrupted for three days (Oct. 18-20) to make a small pointing correction to accommodate the imbalance
that was created by broadcasting data from a different antenna on the other side of the spacecraft. Although the spacecraft is as big and heavy
as an SUV, it actually turns slightly when we change the broadcasting antenna. This is like having your car begin to turn from the force of the
blinking of your turn signal. Yes, the spacecraft is that delicately balanced! Data collection for Campaign 11 will continue until Dec. 7.

Nothing gets a geologist more excited than layered bedrock, except perhaps finding a fossil or holding a meteorite in your hand. All of these things
create a profound feeling of history, the sense of a story that took place ages ago, long before we came appeared. Layered bedrock in particular
tells a story that was set out chapter by chapter as each new layer was deposited on top of older, previously deposited layers.

TMT Segment-Handling Robot Receives National Award - Maunakea & TMT
http://www.maunakeaandtmt.org/tmt-segment-handling-robot-receives-national-award/

A segment-handling robot developed in Japan for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) has received the 2016 Good Design Award.
The robot is a key technology in the world’s first Segment Handling System (SHS), designed to safely and efficiently replace numerous
segment mirrors for the next generation’s extremely large telescope to maintain perfectly reflective mirrors during TMT’s operation.

In recognition of its originality, creativity and advanced technological capability, the Segment-Handling Robot was selected as one
of 100 Good Design Best Award winners out of 4,085 entries screened in 2016. TMT’s segment-handling robot also received the Good Design
Special (“Design for the Future”) Award, given to particularly outstanding designs that are anticipated to become a foundation for
the coming future and society.
