Organization: Awesome Astronomy

Link : www.awesomeastronomy.com

Description: In this podcast extra, we discuss the changing value of the Hubble Constant since 2000 – or put more simply, our narrowing down of how quickly the universe is expanding. This discussion takes in:

  • The history of the Hubble Constant
  • Edwin Hubble’s dreadful scatter plot
  • Further attempts to narrow down the universe’s expansion rate
  • Why research papers are awesome and accessible to everyone

Bio: A podcast beamed direct from an underground bunker on Mars to promote science, space and astronomy (and enslave Earth if all goes well).
