    EPIC 210466471 seems to have 2 transits. But what it is? They seems to be too small for binary system. Maybe planet with ring or moon?

    I also notice that these objects are brighter in Q1-1 for 4 days.

    I tried to pinpoint the source of contamination based on several contaminated objects. I could find only two objects bright enough to cause this contamination. Either Pleiades cluster, or star Aldebaran (α Tau).

    I suspect these glitches are caused by Kepler realigning itself. The processing procedure didn't seem to work very well in these cases. The raw flux "Sap" can be viewed here. The abrupt jumps in the light curve observed above, seem to match jumps in the raw flux.
