Exciting... I'm going with a black hole. What else could it be?

It'll be something boring only people with an interest in astronomy will have ever heard of.

Eh, it's very likely some background radiation or something of that nature. I'd highly doubt it's anything even as interesting as a planet.

if it was anything of importance it would have been released immediately and not wait for tuesday and have to practically beg people to watch.

it would be cool if it was something like spotting non natural structures not made by man on another planet or confirming that one of jupiter's moons (Titan?) is indeed capable of supporting life.
