This perspective view of Marcia Crater on the giant asteroid Vesta shows the most spectacularly preserved example of "pitted terrain," an unexpected discovery in data returned by NASA's Dawn mission. ... Scientists think low-speed collisions with carbon-rich meteorites left hydrated minerals on Vesta's surface. Heat generated during later, high-speed collisions with asteroid belt rocks released water that was previously bound within the hydrated minerals. ...

... We propose that the bimodal nature of the kick velocity distribu­ tion of radio pulsars is connected to the dichotomy between hadronic stars (i.e. neutron stars with no quark matter content) and quark stars. ... Here we propose a scenario in which the low­velocity part of the distribution is connected with normal (hadronic) compact stars, and high­velocity part is formed by objects with some amount of quark matter inside (hybrid or strange stars). ...

ESO PR 06/96; 16 February 1996 . ... In the early morning of January 31, 1996, Japanese amateur astronomer Yuji Hyakutake made his second comet discovery within five weeks. ... Information about some earlier comet encounters may be found in the Appendix at the end of this Press Release. ... By a straightforward extrapolation of the current brightness, it would appear that Comet Hyakutake will reach magnitude 1 on March 25, 1996, at the time of the closest approach to the Earth. ...

A team of U.S. and German astrophysicists have made the first ever detection of X-rays coming from a comet. ... Following the initial detection, the team reported repeated X-ray emissions from the comet over the next 24 hours. ... One preliminary theory is that X-ray emission from the Sun was absorbed by a cloud of gaseous water molecules surrounding the nucleus of the comet, and then were re-emitted by the molecules in a process physicists call "fluorescence." ...
