mysanantonio.comTriple-star system's strange antics entrance scientists digging through 125 years of data
Scientists have combined modern spacecraft data with vintage observations to piece together a 125-year-long story of the antics of a nearby triple-star system dubbed HS Hydra — and predict its future. When the first of those observations were made, in 1893, HS Hydra was just another star twinkling in the heavens. "This was like your grandfather's astrophysics or whatever; binary stars were really hot 60 or 70 years ago because that was the really dynamic thing they could study." And when the stars overlap in the spacecraft's view, the light dips: ta-da, a binary star system in an exoplanet mission's data. So Davenport read up on binary stars, tracking down an old article for amateur astronomers that profiled intriguing binary stars.

feeds.reuters.comTrump administration eases risks for banks on false lending claims
The government is now trying to encourage more banks to offer loans to borrowers eligible for insurance from the Federal Housing Administration (FHA). The FHA provides mortgage insurance on loans created by approved lenders, helping borrowers with less money for down payments or lower credit scores qualify for home loans. After the subprime mortgage crisis, former President Barack Obamas Justice Department frequently won multibillion-dollar settlements from big banks using the False Claims Act to build cases. The government argued that banks improperly certified home mortgages as eligible for FHA insurance, leaving the government to pay out insurance when they defaulted. The housing regulator would still be able to refer cases to the Justice Department for prosecution where there is a material violation of HUD requirements.
