Astropy: A community Python package for astronomy

TL;DR: Astropy as discussed by the authors is a Python package for astronomy-related functionality, including support for domain-specific file formats such as flexible image transport system (FITS) files, Virtual Observatory (VO) tables, common ASCII table formats, unit and physical quantity conversions, physical constants specific to astronomy, celestial coordinate and time transformations, world coordinate system (WCS) support, generalized containers for representing gridded as well as tabular data, and a framework for cosmological transformations and conversions.

Detection of intergalactic ionized helium absorption in a high-redshift quasar

TL;DR: In this article, the recently refurbished Hubble Space Telescope revealed strong absorption arising from singly ionized helium along the line of sight to a high-redshift quasar, suggesting that it may arise in a diffuse ionized intergalactic medium.
