... Credit: Rob van Gent , Tiemen Cocquyt , and Carl Koppeschaar Explanation: In 1655, three hundred fifty years ago on this date, Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens discovered Luna Saturni - now known as Saturn's moon Titan. To celebrate, consider this intriguing picture of his telescope lens, all that remains of the instrument he used , designed and constructed in collaboration with his brother, Constantijn Huygens. ... Huygens used the verse as part of an anagram announcing his discovery. ...

... The CLASS survey is a collaboration between Jodrell Bank, Caltech (USA) and Leiden/Dwingeloo (Netherlands) which aims to find new cases of gravitational lensing. ... Variability is a prerequisite for determining time delays between the components of the lens system and thus estimating the Hubble constant. Good progress towards measurement of the Hubble constant is being made with observations of one JVAS object, 0218+357; a time delay of about 12 days has been determined. ...

The black hole mass was refined to be about ~10 9 M (the mass close to the limiting in radio galaxies). ... High radio luminosity of the components, given a small linear size of this radio galaxy requires the presence of non-standard methods of their formation, accounting for various merger scenarios, including the variants with dual black holes. ...

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 Planck satellite has discovered a bridge of hot gas that connects galaxy clusters Abell 399 (lower center) and Abell 401 (top left). The galaxy pair is located about a billion light-years from Earth, and the gas bridge extends approximately 10 million light-years between them. The image shows the two galaxy clusters as seen at optical wavelengths with ground-based telescopes and through the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (in orange) with Planck. ...
