Firefly is back!!!!

Not the TV show, unfortunately. But NASA is planning on launching a new satellite called Firefly to study flashed of gamma-rays - from the Earth! Where they are coming from (no, they are not from underground nuclear tests. Those would be absorbed by the ground and atmosphere and never make it out to space), no one really knows. Read more about it here.
