The newly discovered object -- designated C/2019 Q4 Borisov – was discovered on by Gennady Borisov at the MARGO observatory in the Crimea on August 30th. *Astronomers shed light on galactic evolution Astronomers are able to classify galaxies according to their physical properties rather than just human interpretation of a galaxy’s appearance thanks to a technique called Integral Field Spectroscopy. *Scientists measure the exact size of the proton Physicists have carried out the most precise measurement of the size of the proton ever undertaken – finding it to be smaller than expected. *Atlas V launches new generation military communications satellite The world’s most advanced military telecommunications satellite has successfully been placed into geostationary orbit.

538: Asteroids: Rubble piles of the Solar System Astronomy Cast 538: Asteroids: Rubble piles of the Solar System by Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Thanks to all the work from Hayabusa 2 and OSIRIS-REx, astronomers are getting a much better look at the smaller asteroids in the Solar System. It turns out, they're piles of rubble... but fascinating piles of rubble. Let's talk about what we've learned so far.Thanks to all the work from Hayabusa 2 and OSIRIS-REx, astronomers are getting a much better look at the smaller asteroids in the Solar System.
