This asteroid became the first of its kind object identified on the cold outer edge of the solar system. Probably, this mysterious object formed in the Main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter,

The first time that an "exploding pulsar" was a slow-pulsating transient pulsar

The University of Southampton, Great Britain, discovered that a unique "exploding pulsar" - a neutron star that "pulls" matter from a companion star - may also be the slowest transient pulsar known to science. Transient pulsars are a rare class of neutron stars that perform transitions from x-ray to radio pulsations and back for several years.

In fact, what this view of the Cassini international ship shows are the rings that pass in front of the planet, on which they project their shadow. And because the rings like those of the A ring and the Cassini division,
