Title: Cheap Astronomy – Dear CA #77: It’s A Weird Place, But We’re Getting To Know It!

Organization: Cheap Astronomy

Links: http://cheapastro.com

Description: An episode about time and timing.

What is time made of? 

So firstly, time is not something you can deal with in isolation. It is just one aspect of spacetime, where the other aspect is space. 

Is Betelguese about to blow? 

Firstly, we know it’s not really pronounced Betelguese and we don’t care. Douglas Adams said Betelguese and that’s good enough for us. Anyway, recently several media outlets got all het up about a prolonged phase of dimming in Betelguese’s radiance.
