A quite rare kind of exoplanet system has recently been confirmed, consisting of six "sub-Neptune" planets with "mathematically perfect" orbits close to their host star:

Yeah. This appears to have been a configuration left over from the beginning of the system, which is surprising.

They did it again.

Considering just how quiet this site has gotten in recent months, this is perhaps as much as I can really expect to hear from this community this year.

While I once again had already gotten myself most of the Lego sets from this year that I was interested in, one gift I did receive was a book that had just released only weeks ago called "Lego Space: 1978 - 1992", which is essentially a large encyclopedia about all of the Lego sets from the classic space theme from those early years, so that should be quite a fascinating book to read (once I can eventually set aside enough time to actually read it, of course).
