NASA to anounce discovery of "exceptional object" in our cosmic neighborhood (UPDATED)

Update at bottom
The discovery  is from Chandra X-ray, not the discovery of Fermi's Gamma Ray bubbles (Fermi is a gamma ray telescope). So I wonder what it could be? Now, I've hung in with NASA on several of these announcements. They always turn out to be discovery of an ice ball circling Pluto, or something. But I always get sucked in anyway, and especially now with the worl turning upside down and knowing what the LORD is planning for the heavens, soon, I thought I'd post again and then keep you updated when it turns out to be a discovery of the cosmos's smallest asteroid or something, lol.

NASA Announces Televised Chandra News Conference
"WASHINGTON -- NASA will hold a news conference at 12:30 p.m. EST on Monday, Nov. 15, to discuss the Chandra X-ray Observatory's discovery of an exceptional object in our cosmic neighborhood. The news conference will originate from NASA Headquarters' television studio, 300 E St. SW in Washington and carried live on NASA TV.  Media representatives may attend the conference, join by phone or ask questions from participating NASA locations. To RSVP or obtain dial-in information, journalists must send their name, affiliation and telephone number to Trent Perrotto at: trent.j.perrotto@nasa.gov by 10 a.m. EST on Nov. 15. Reporters wishing to attend the conference in-person must have a valid press credential for access. Non-U.S. media also must bring passports."

UPDATE: well, it turned out NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory has picked up what appears to be the youngest black hole we've discovered near our planet. This object could however instead be the youngest documented neutron star. Either way, it's an exciting find.
