 The Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC), installed at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos (La Palma) has obtained deep images of an “unprecedented” in a neutron star, magnetar type, of which six are known, according to Monday the Institut d’Astrophysique de Canarias (IAC).
The IAC said in a statement that the star is observed as the official name SGR 0418 +5729, explaining that comments from the Gran Telescopio Canarias are unprecedented in the optical range for these objects and help to define the physical properties this celestial body with extremely intense magnetic fields.

 The Hubble Space Telescope of the NASA / ESA has discovered a lost bright elliptical galaxy in the universe and located 500 million light years from Earth, ESO 306-17, belonging to the kind of ‘fossil groups’, which they think was was isolated by devouring their neighboring galaxies.
“In general, we may assume that the galaxies are social and are often grouped together and interact, but the last image taken by the Space Telescope shows how some galaxies appear to be hungry lonely,” the European Space Agency (ESA).

 The CoRoT space satellite discovered the first Jupiter-like exoplanet allowing studies in detail when passing in front of its star. The discovery, led by a researcher at the IAC, it will be published in the journal Nature.
The CoRoT space satellite has discovered a Jupiter-sized planet orbiting a star like the Sun in the constellation of the Serpent, about 1,500 light years from Earth.

 The oldest ancestor of monkeys, apes and humans lived in North Africa 29 million years ago, had a smaller brain than previously thought and the difference in the size of both sexes was very large, as it relates to a type of social structure in which lived in the same group several males and females. This has been ascertained by the study of a skull of the species Aegyptopithecus zeuxis, conducted by researchers at Duke University.
