The "big" announcement from ESO in Brazil concerning what turns out to be an asteroid with rings has to be the most boring one ever. Especially when the "news" was leaked many hours before. Right? [link to www.eso.org]

A photometric study in 2001 was unable to find a definite period of rotation.[4] Infrared observations of Chariklo indicate water ice[5] on the surface. Mike Brown's website lists it as a possible dwarf planet with a measured diameter of 258 km.[6] On 26 March 2014 astronomers announced the discovery of planetary rings around Chariklo by observing a stellar occultation.[7][8]
