NASA will reveal new discoveries about black holes and other extreme objects in deep space next week during a briefing that will be streamed live on the Internet.

The NASA update is set for Wednesday (Aug. 29) at 1 p.m. EDT (1700 GMT) and will discuss the latest science findings from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer mission. The prolific WISE space telescope mission actually ended in 2011, but astronomers continue to mine the observatory's data for new discoveries.

The Aug. 29 briefing will be a teleconference for media that the public can listen in online, NASA officials said.

"The discoveries are related to the distant universe, including supermassive black holes and rare galaxies," space agency officials said in an announcement.

@Duck, NASA conferences are always a let down, but I'm a sucker for anything about the Universe.

I'm with Duck on this one. They'll probably say

'They're more common than we thought'
'Stuff not only goes in, it comes out'

You can guarantee it will as exciting as a wet fart.
