Signs of a planet from "Star Wars"

Amateur astronomers have discovered a new planet that rotates not only around two suns, but at the same time is the orbit of the other two suns. The new system, which has four of the sun in its composition, the first of its kind, which was discovered in the project for planet hunters led by a team at Yale University. Enthusiastic fans are working with professional scientists to analyze the data collected by NASA's Kepler Space Telescope, and the search for new worlds.

Discovered ultracompact system of five exoplanets

Found record for density planets system:

The star system KOI-500 identified five planets, all of which revolve around the star at a distance much smaller than the distance from Mercury to the Sun.

Discovered ultracompact system of five exoplanets. Astronomers have discovered the most compact system of the five exoplanets. 

When galaxies eat galaxy

Using gravitational lensing, Astronomers University of Utah (USA) found that the center of massive galaxies will ultimately become denser than normal galaxies.

"We found that over the past 6 billion years matter making massive elliptical galaxies, gaining a greater concentration in their centers. This is evidence that large galaxies collide with each other in order to create an even greater - says astronomer Adam Bolton, Lead author of the work.

An exclusive world with four suns

PH1 - a planet with four suns:

Participants’ astronomical project Planet Hunters together with astronomers from Yale was first discovered a planet that is in the system of 4 stars.

Amateur astronomers and researchers from several institutions in the U.S. and the UK for the first time discovered exoplanet, which glow in the sky as four different suns.

The solar wind has brought water to the moon

Equipment "Apollo" provided for researchers to analyze new samples of lunar soil.

Examining the samples of lunar soil by the University of Michigan found that the cause of the water on Earth's satellite has solar wind.

It turned out that the increased content of lunar rock hydroxyl ion OH-, which is formed when a material is a proton (H +) - hydrogen ion brought by the solar wind. Proton captures oxygen from the lunar soil, resulting in a more stable particle - hydroxyl ion. In the interaction with other protons recombine it in water H20, 

Jupiter has discovered two new Trojan

Asteroids are dark or glowing stone with a matt, non-reflective surface. And those that are ahead of Jupiter is much larger that behind.

"Jupiter and Saturn now in peace, in stable orbits. But just have a very rough. And we think that these meteorites are orbiting Jupiter millions and even billions of years - at a time when the solar system was formed only "- said Tommy Graves, a scientist from the Planetary Science Institute in Tucson, in Arizona.

Black sun on a star field reversed

Does it is known this strange black ball? If it is, is because it is the Sun

The image shown above is the result of a very detailed view of Sol registered in very specific color of red, then black and white processed and finally displayed in inverted colors. Once completed, the black sun was superimposed on a stellar field whose colors were also reversed.

The highlight allows treatment performed several long filaments , active regions dark bulges of the solar disk and a kind of mobile folder hot gas.
