Jul 5th: JWST Reveals Star Formation Details
Let’s take a fast-paced journey thru all that’s new in space and astronomy and look at how JWST reveal star formation in never-before-seen details.
Jun 28th: Planning To Go Back To The Moon
This week… there was a far too much news problem, the last flight of Virgin Galactic’s Unity suborbital spacecraft, the first crewed flight of Boeing’s Starliner capsule to the ISS, a more successful launch test of SpaceX’s massive starship, the successful landing, loading, and liftoff of Chang’e 6 at the Moon, and… the beginning of the end for the HST as it shifted into single gyro operations.
Jun 21st: Climate in Crisis & Stars in Formation
In this episode, we bring you stories on how JWST – Not LIGO and Virgo – spotted the most distant Black Hole merger to date, why the search for life on other worlds gets more challenging the more we look, and we take a deep dive into the things we’re doing that cause and relieve climate change.
Jun 14th: Chinese Lander Detects Water on the Moon
China’s Chang’e-5 lunar lander has made the first in situ detection of water on the Moon, using reflectance spectroscopy from the surface of our natural satellite.
Jun 7th: Dark Matter Delays Supernova Signal
A supernova first observed in 2016 will be replayed in a few years because of the light’s journey through a galaxy cluster and how dark matter gravitationally warps space-time.
May 31st: Carrington 2024
In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at Sunspot complex 3664 and the beautiful chaos that it’s been creating.
May 24th: Massive Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica at Risk of Collapse
A team of scientists collected cores and modeled ice cliff failure and found that Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is melting more quickly than ever and could be at risk of collapse, threatening global coastlines with almost a meter of sea level rise.
May 17th: Io & Juno Begin to Part Ways
In February, on the closest approach, NASA’s Juno spacecraft was within 930 miles of the closest moon Io’s surface. Since then, Io and Juno have parted ways, and Juno is now snuggling down into tighter orbits around her Jupiter.
May 10th: Supervolcanoes Remain Active Post-Eruption Longer Than Thought
Research into the Toba caldera and its super-eruption 75,000 years ago shows that magma continued to flow out of the volcano for thousands of years. Plus, magma and volcanoes throughout our solar system
