Another dimmer 'bright spot' on dwarf planet Ceres

Washington, Feb 26 : There's not one, but two bright spots on dwarf planet Ceres, scientists have found.

NASA 's Dawn spacecraft got closer to being captured into orbit around the object, and the latest images, taken nearly 29,000 miles (46,000 kilometers) from Ceres, reveal that a bright spot that stands out in previous images lies close to yet another bright area.

Chris Russell, principal investigator for the Dawn mission said that the Ceres' bright spot can now be seen to have a companion of lesser brightness, but apparently in the same basin. This may be pointing to a volcano-like origin of the spots, but they would have to wait for better resolution before making such geologic interpretations.

Black hole family tree's intriguing member discovered

Washington, Feb 26 : An intriguing member of the Black hole family tree has been discovered, which may help provide answers to some long-standing questions about how black holes evolve and influence their surroundings.

Mar Mezcua of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics said that in paleontology, the discovery of certain fossils can help scientists fill in the evolutionary gaps between different dinosaurs and they do the same thing in astronomy, but they often have to "dig" up our discoveries in galaxies that are millions of light years away.

The intriguing object, called NGC-2276-3c, is located in an arm of the spiral galaxy NGC 2276, which is about 100 million light years from Earth. NGC-2276-3c appears to be what astronomers call an "intermediate-mass black hole"
