A Circumbinary Debris Disk in a Polluted White Dwarf System

NASA's SDO Adds Leap Second to Master Clock
https://www.nasa.gov/...re/goddard/2016/space-timekeeping-nasas-sdo-adds-leap-second-to-master-clock
On Dec. 31, 2016, official clocks around the world will add a leap second just before midnight Coordinated Universal Time — which corresponds to
6:59:59 p.m. EST. NASA missions will also have to make the switch, including the Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, which watches the sun 24/7.

"SDO moves about 1.9 miles every second," said Dean Pesnell, the project scientist for SDO at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt,
Maryland. "So does every other object in orbit near SDO. We all have to use the same time to make sure our collision avoidance programs are accurate.
So we all add a leap second to the end of 2016, delaying 2017 by one second."

Space Shredder: Sun May Be Tearing Asteroids Apart
http://www.space.com/35180-sun-shredding-asteroids-to-pieces.html

With a cloud of trailing debris, a rocky object known as 3200 Phaethon straddles the line between asteroid and comet.
But the space rock's days, it seems, might be numbered. New research suggests that the sun may be slowly shredding
Phaethon to pieces due to its close orbit. The same may be happening to another close-orbiting object.

Pulsations detected in a hot, helium-atmosphere white dwarf
http://phys.org/news/2016-12-pulsations-hot-helium-atmosphere-white-dwarf.html

Astronomers have recently discovered non-radial oscillations in a hot, helium-atmosphere white dwarf designated PG 0112+104.
The newly detected 11 independent pulsation modes in this white dwarf could be essential for researchers testing the radial
differential rotation and internal compositional stratification of highly evolved stellar remnants. The findings were
presented in a paper published Dec. 22 on the arXiv pre-print server.

Last 5 Sept. 2016, asteroid (17473) Freddiemercury has been officially named by the International Astronomical Union after Freddie Mercury,
the lead vocalist and co-principal songwriter of the epic rock band Queen. It was announced on the occasion of the 70th birthday of Freddie.
