4/29/15 Planetologists observe a transpolar arc in Saturn’s auroral footprints for the first time. A rare phenomenon, considering the planet’s characteristics, and one whose existence no-one had suspected. 2/4/15 An alignment of the rotation axes of a group of quasars catches the attention of astrophysicists. This gigantic structure in the very distant Universe could challenge the standard cosmological model. 7/10/14 For the first time, astrophysicists have observed X-ray pulsations from a massive star. A new and surprising discovery which raises new questions. 5/23/14 TRAPPIST, a ULg telescope based in Chile, played a part in the discovery of rings around the asteroid Chariklo. Up to now, such structures were only seen around giant planets. 5/13/14 The study of telluric exoplanets is still in its infancy, but rapid progress is being made thanks to two ambitious programmes in which researchers from ULg are participating.
