Three new Exoplanets directly imaged
(Well... If you really dig into the details of the
first and
second Arxiv.org PDF maybe one of them is likely to accrete enough material to become a brown dwarf candidate)... still awesome though.
After the downer of Comet ISON's death... No pining for the fjords... No maybe death
, it's nice to see something cool to cheer me up. Not that I won't try and have a last futile look for Comet ISON... if the sky is clear
... and I can still search for Comet Lovejoy
For those who prefer to look down, Phil Plait's Bad Astronomy Blog urges one and all to
check out this spectacular video made from time lapse pics from ISS
Bonus Comet appearance in the video, too.
