How did String Theory get started? What has made the idea so popular over the decades? Can we ever truly have a theory of quantum gravity? What is supersymmetry, the landscape, and the AdS/CFT Correspondence? What do holograms have to do with this? How many dimensions do we live in? Why does String Theory have such a hard time making predictions? How are we supposed to judge a theory that isn’t done yet?
Update from beyond the solar system! Is the universe closed?What’s the different between an asteroid and a dwarf planet?

How to make a Magnetar? What is the quantum measurement problem?
Some people actually deserved the Nobel Prize. Will black holes suck up the universe? What mysteries will be solved in our lifetimes?
How did chemists save astronomy? What’s so important about the spectrum, and how are they made? How can we tell what things in space are made out of?
Why is infrared astronomy so hard? How do we fit giant telescopes into tiny rockets? What will the James Webb uncover?
This week we have moist exoplanet atmospheres, possibility of life arise on a massive planet, the shape of a black hole singularity, and many more. #spaceradio with @PaulMattSutter #365DaysOfAstro
Where does the quantum world begin? Why do we have a hard time fundamentally understanding quantum systems? What connects quantum and classical physics?
An asteroid that changes color!
Why does a black hole end in a singularity? How can we measure distances to stuff in space?
