To battle climate change, we’ll need to rapidly move to carbon-free sources of energy. But this technology isn’t a free lunch. They require metals, generate waste and deplete the environment. What’s the best way to balance this shift?
Climate change is on our minds these days, with increasing wildfires, droughts and floods. What are the variables that play into a planet’s changing climate, and what can this teach us about the search for habitable planets across the Milky Way?
Travelers in the Night discuss about the negative effect of climate change on astronomical research. And also the discovery of 2020 RX8
Today’s Travelers in the Night discuss about 2015 HY116 which is on a collision course with planet Earth, 2015 JJ, 2015 JD1 and 2015 JV.
From the Great Oxidation Event to how Earth is dimming, we look at a selection of stories about how climate changes have affected the Earth in the distant past, the recent past, and the current time.
New research shows that our galaxy was already in place prior to a major collision with a dwarf galaxy ten billions years ago. Plus a science review of Godzilla vs. Kong. No. Really! #365DaysOfAstro
Climate change is a leading problem in today’s society, and today we have a quartet of stories on its affect on the world around us. Plus, more coverage from the AAS meeting with three stories on black holes, as well as dating supernovae, breaking a star, and magnetic chaos in a galaxy.
Dr Gavin Schmidt discusses rising global temperatures, what are the probable causes, how the data is collected by scientists, & what industrialized nations are doing to help reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
Rounding up the space and what do you think the general (or astronomy/space) science community’s approach to the problem of climate change should be? more at #365DaysOfAstro with @awesomeastropod
Dr. Grauer himself discovered 2017 AG5!
