... 2011 May 23 . An Unexpected Flare from the Crab Nebula . ... As recently as one month ago, gamma-ray observations of the Crab Nebula by the Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope showed an unexpected increase in gamma-ray brightness, becoming about five times the nebula's usual gamma-ray brightness, and fading again in only a few days. ... The above image shows how the Crab Nebula normally appears in gamma rays, as compared to the Geminga pulsar, and how it then appeared during the recent brightening. ...

This sequence of three images, obtained by NASA's Cassini spacecraft over the course of about 10 minutes, shows the path of a newly found moonlet in a bright arc of Saturn's faint G ring. In each image, a small streak of light within the ring is visible. ... Scientists interpret the moving streak to be reflected light from a tiny moon that is likely a major source of material in the arc and the rest of the G ring. ... That arc, in turn, leaks material to form the entire ring. ...
