* "Astronomers spot four mysterious, UNIDENTIFIED circular objects in outer space" (2020-07-09, rt.com/news/494255-astronomers-spot-four-mysterious-discs/) [archive.is/aHZVa] [begin excerpt]: The brightly-edged, ring-shaped objects, dubbed odd radio circles, or ORCs for short, were discovered by astrophysicist Professor Ray Norris using the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope.
He happened upon the unexplained phenomena while mapping the night sky as part of the Evolutionary Map of the Universe (EMU) project.
“The ORCs represent a new type of object found in radioastronomy images,” Norris says in a yet to be peer-reviewed paper.
The professor theorized that they represent a “spherical shock wave” from an “transient event” in another galaxy. Another possible answer is that they are a new category of a known phenomenon seen from a fresh angle. “Such as the jets of a radio galaxy or blazar when seen end-on, down the ‘barrel’ of the jet,” Norris explained.

Can you imagine a turtle with a mouth similar to an eagle beak and a crocodile tail? It's not any of the J.K. Rowling's "Fantastic Beasts" but a turtle species called big-headed turtle from Southeast Asia and southern China.
Recently, a villager in Dongshan Town in Xuanwei City, southwest China's Yunnan Province, found a big-headed turtle alongside a stream. Shocked by its appearance, the villager called the police.
Forest police arrived at the site, where they saw a fearless little turtle.
- full size image [archive.is/7Jnhc]
The big-headed turtle normally lives in mountainous areas with streams and pebbles, since it feeds on small aquatic animals such as shrimp, fish and frogs. The species is rarely seen in the wild nowadays.
The turtle found by the villager was sent to the local wildlife rescue station, and it will soon be released back to the wild.The big-headed turtle normally lives in mountainous areas with streams and pebbles, since it feeds on small aquatic animals such as shrimp, fish and frogs.
