It’s official! June and July were the warmest we’ve seen since records began over a century ago. Today we’re going to look at 20 years of climate science, how well does reality match up with the predictions.
Sep 11th: Questions Show: Matter Balance, Jumping Light Speed and Black Hole Star Formation
Why was there a difference between the amount of matter and antimatter at the beginning of the Universe? Mathematics lets us travel faster than light speed, so why can’t we? And are there stars forming around black holes?
Sep 4th: Questions: An Unlocked Moon, Energy Into Black Holes, & the Space Station’s Orbit
This week we find out what would happen if the Moon was rotating fast and not tidally locked to the Earth also where the light and matter go into a black hole.
Aug 28th: Stellar Roche Limits, Seeing Black Holes & Water on Mars
This week we find out when stars get torn apart from gravity, how we can see supermassive black holes, how liquid water could have existed on Mars in the past, and much more.
Aug 21st: The Source of Atmospheres, the Vanishing Moon, and a Glow After Sunset
How do planets get their atmospheres? What would happen to the Earth if the Moon just disappeared? And what’s that strange glow we see after sunset? Do we live in an unbalanced Universe?
Aug 14th: Dangerous Solar Flares, Higgs Boson Insights, and Light Speed Flashlights
Can our Sun generate a solar flare that would wipe out life on Earth? Has the Large Hadron Collider answered any questions about the Higgs boson? And what would happen if you shined your flashlight out the front window of a spaceship going almost the speed of light?
Aug 7th: Student Questions Show: Leelanau School
What’s the closest exoplanet to our solar system? What planet in our solar system should we colonize? Can microscopic black holes be created on Earth? Find the answer with @AstronomyCast
Jul 31st: Student Questions: Collinsville High School
Can a gamma ray destroy a galaxy? Do black holes really absorb matter or do they have another purpose? Does the Universe ever come to an end? Lets explore the universe from the students questions.
Jul 24th: Student Questions: Curtis High School
Besides dark matter and dark energy, is there any possibility there’s anything else in outer space? What are the possibilities that white holes are really out there? More with @AstronomyCast
Jul 17th: Student Questions: Farmersburg School
What do radio waves given off by stars sound like? What happens to the energy that goes into a black hole? More Q&A with @AstronomyCast at #365daysOfAstro
