Star Light, Star Bright, Its Explanation Is Out Of Sight (SpaceDaily)
by Staff Writers Baltimore MD (SPX) Jan 09, 2009 A mysterious flash of light from somewhere near or far in the universe is still keeping astronomers in the dark long after it was first detected by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope in 2006. It might represent an entirely new class of stellar phenomena that has previously gone undetected in the universe, say researchers.

Could Mystery Outburst be a New Stellar Phenomenon? (Universe Today)
The Hubble Space Telescope serendipitously captured a mysterious burst of light on February 21, 2006. Over the next 100 days, the object, cataloged as SCP 06F6, brightened and then slowly faded. Astronomers do not know the object's distance, so it can either be in our Milky Way galaxy or at a great [...]

Star Light, Star Bright, Its Explanation is Out of Sight (Newswise)
This pair of NASA Hubble Space Telescope pictures shows the appearance of a mysterious burst of light that was detected on February 21, 2006, brightened over 100 days, and then faded into oblivion after another 100 days. The source of the outburst remains unidentified. The event was detected serendipitously in a Hubble search for supernovae in a distant cluster of galaxies. The light-signature ...
