    Mysterious faint object detected in the vicinity of a quadruply lensed quasar
    https://phys.org/news/2017-01-mysterious-faint-vicinity-quadruply-lensed.html

    Astronomers have spotted a mysterious faint object in the vicinity of a quadruply lensed quasar designated MG 0414+0534.
    The object, which was discovered using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), appears to be a dusty,
    dark dwarf galaxy or an ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG). The findings were presented January 19 in a paper published on arXiv.org.

    MG 0414+0534 is a quadruply lensed, radio-loud quasar that showcases a strong sign of anomaly in the flux ratio and reddening
    in the optical and near-infrared band. This anomaly baffles scientists as its origin is not fully understood yet.

    Detecting gravitational waves just got easier | Astronomy.com
    http://www.astronomy.com/news/2017/01/detecting-gravitaional-waves
    The Albert Einstein Institute in Potsdam has increased its computing power more than sixfold with the Minerva supercomputer.

    Gravitational waves are generated any time mass accelerates, spreading out like ripples on a pond. Because the size of the waves generated is proportional
    to the amount of mass accelerated, it’s easiest to see the waves resulting from some of the most intriguing astronomical events imaginable — the merger between
    two compact massive objects, such as neutron stars or black holes. The Albert Einstein Institute (AEI) at the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics
    in Potsdam, Germany, has recently gained a powerful tool in the ongoing effort to detect and understand gravitational waves: the Minerva supercomputer.

    A Four Planet System in Orbit, Directly Imaged and Remarkable – Many Worlds
    http://www.manyworlds.space/...7/01/24/a-four-planet-system-in-orbit-directly-imaged-and-remarkable/

    The era of directly imaging exoplanets has only just begun, but the science and viewing pleasures to come are appealingly apparent.

    This evocative movie of four planets more massive than Jupiter orbiting the young star HR 8799 is a composite of sorts, including
    images taken over seven years at the W.M. Keck observatory in Hawaii. The movie clearly doesn’t show full orbits, which will take
    many more years to collect. The closest-in planet circles the star in around 40 years; the furthest takes more than 400 years.

    The large dark feature is a classic Martian sand dune. Most sand on Earth is made from the mineral quartz, which is white and bright.
    On Mars, most sand is composed of dark basalt, a volcanic rock. For this reason, dunes on Mars are darker than those on Earth.

    Bursts of methane may have warmed early Mars | Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences
    https://www.seas.harvard.edu/news/2017/01/bursts-of-methane-may-have-warmed-early-mars

    Researchers from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) suggest that early Mars may have been warmed intermittently
    by a powerful greenhouse effect. In a paper published in Geophysical Research Letters, researchers found that interactions between methane, carbon dioxide
    and hydrogen in the early Martian atmosphere may have created warm periods when the planet could support liquid water on the surface.

    NuSTAR Finds New Clues to 'Chameleon Supernova'
    https://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/nustar-finds-new-clues-to-chameleon-supernova

    One supernova in particular is challenging astronomers' models of how exploding stars distribute their elements. The supernova SN 2014C dramatically changed
    in appearance over the course of a year, apparently because it had thrown off a lot of material late in its life. This doesn't fit into any recognized category of
    how a stellar explosion should happen. To explain it, scientists must reconsider established ideas about how massive stars live out their lives before exploding.

    "This 'chameleon supernova' may represent a new mechanism of how massive stars deliver elements created in their cores to the rest of the universe," said Raffaella
    Margutti, assistant professor of physics and astronomy at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. Margutti led a study about supernova SN 2014C published
    this week in The Astrophysical Journal.
