Sulfur, Sulfur Dioxide and Graphitized Carbon on Ceres
The sulfur species are likely associated with regions of recent activity. The presence of graphitized carbon is consistent with weathering of carbonaceous material on the asteroid's surface, caused by processes such as charged particle bombardment.

The Cassini spacecraft has logged impressive numbers in the 12 years since it arrived at Saturn on July 1, 2004. This infographic offers a snapshot of just a few of the mission's big numbers on Sept. 15, 2016, as it heads into a final year of science at Saturn.

Which idiot declared it illegal to dispose of a body in space?
I couldn't think of a more efficient method than shoving one out of the airlock, and letting it drift off, hopefully it would re-enter the atmosphere and burn off, or just drift off never to be seen again.

Scientists from Carnegie and Caltech have taken a closer look at the mysterious star called KIC 8462852 and found it's even weirder than first believed
