Brightest star in the galaxy found named Pistol Star
Astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope identify a celestial giant near the Milky Way center, about 25 000 light years from Earth. The Pistol Star emits energy equivalent to the sun’s output in a year in six seconds and would swallow Earth with its edge.

Pathfinder signals back Mars Pathfinder regains voice from main transmitter
NASA officials report Mars Pathfinder back on Earth link after a week. Project manager Brian Muirhead cites nine days in limbo while signals from the main transmitter resumed. Engineers plan a full data run to verify instruments and timing, with continued data and images expected in days. The tech issue centered on aging batteries and solar power during peak Martian hours, causing a brownout and a clock reset. Pathfinder and rover Sojourner have surpassed their primary mission timelines since landing.
