Gizmodo has a pretty cool article on some un-explained phenomena from space.

The WOW! Signal. Or, Holy Crap, Alien Avon Calling!
Called the WOW! signal, this 72-second beacon was detected by Dr. Jerry R. Ehman on August 15, 1977. Because the unknown signal fit the parameters of what an artificial space signal might sound like so exactly, the awestruck Ehman jotted down "Wow!" when he first heard it. I'd also like to think he cartoonishly fell back in his chair and spit coffee out all over the terminal when it happened too, but that's just me.

Hubble Spies UFO. Or... Yeah, This One Really Was a Legitimate UFO
On February 21, 2006 (the paper was only published recently), the venerable space telescope spied a UFO in an area of space where there should have been nothing at all.
Excerpts from a few of the stories on the page.

Definitely things that make you go "Huh?".
