Spoilers for Green Lantern #40!
In Green Lantern #40, Hal Jordan ditched his ring and stole the prototype Green Lantern gauntlet and power pack from the armory and went rogue, all in a ruse to clear the name of the Green Lantern Corps and take all the blame for their wrongdoings himself. The new hooded jacket and long hair certainly gives him the "renegade" look they're going for.

ESA Searching For Signs of (Robotic) Life on Comet
The European Space Agency thinks there may still be life to its Philae lander, now currently hurtling through the vastness of space on the back of a comet.
Its lander came to rest in a shady area of Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko on November 12 of last year. This proved problematic for a probe whose primary source of energy is the sun.
However, as the cosmic ballet goes on and the comet continues its journey around the sun, the angle of sunlight hitting Philae has changed.
"Philae currently receives about twice as much solar energy as it did in November last year," lander project manager Stephan Ulamec said on the ESA blog. Ulamec thinks it may still be too cold for the lander to wake up, but figures "it's worth trying."
