Astronomers just discovered WASP-193b, an extremely low-density giant planet orbiting a sun-like star 1200 light-years from Earth. WASP-193b is 50% larger than Jupiter, but 7 times less massive, giving it a density comparable to cotton candy

Little is known about dark energy, except that it's repulsive. This strange force causes matter to scatter rather than attract. Dark energy makes up 68% of the universe's mass-energy density.

Enaiposha is 3 times bigger and 8 times as massive as Earth. The planet's density means a chunk of it must be lighter than rock but heavier than gas. It is likely that Enaiposha is a water world.

A star system located 3,000 light-years away called T Coronae Borealis is predicted to go nova between now & Sept. These Outbursts happen approx every 80 years, and can be seen with the naked eye

3C 273 is the brightest quasar in the sky and the second to be discovered. In 1963, Cyril Hazard used an occultation by the moon to establish its position.
