Gliese 581g
Gliese 581g is the first world discovered beyond Earth that’s the right size and location for life. The new world orbits right in the middle of that system’s habitable region, where temperatures would be suitable for liquid water to pool on the planet’s surface.

Mysterious Monoceros

If you love unusual star birth, than this is the nebula you’re looking for.
Called Monoceros R2, the interstellar cloud of gas and dust glows deep red in this recently released image due to its abundant ionized hydrogen. The picture was made using data from the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile.
Although this cloud lies close to the Orion nebula, another region of star birth, Monoceros R2 isn’t forming stars at the same rate or of the same heft as its neighbor, and astronomers aren’t sure why.
