Astronomers are speculating over a mysterious burst of light detected by the Hubble Space Telescope. The event, which bears only the name SCP 06F6, appeared in the telescope's field of view on 21 February 2006, brightened for around 100 days and then dimmed away to nothingness. There is no record of anything similar appearing before or since, and no clue as to what the source was; its spectrum appears unlike anything previously observed. (source: nature.com)
