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." ...

The preliminary ALFA pulsar surveys started on August 1st, 2004. In the first day of observations, a new 67.8-ms pulsar, PSR J1928+1746, was discovered: this was the first new pulsar found with ALFA. ... Strangely, the pulsar could not be detected in a 430-MHz observation. This pulsar's apparently unusual spectrum might not be so unusual: 1400-MHz surveys are biased towards finding this kind of object, but the pulsars found in these surveys were not consistently observed at higher frequencies. ...
