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.
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.
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.
In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at Sunspot complex 3664 and the beautiful chaos that it’s been creating.
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.
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.
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
Today EVSN discuss about planet WASP-76b which appears to be a giant iron glory in the atmosphere of another world: a circular rainbow, and it’s not caused by refracted starlight!
The Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha’apai volcano in the Kingdom of Tonga erupted and despite communications being cut off scientists have gathered a wealth of information about the event and its outcome. More about it at #365DaysOfAstro
While experiencing hail and thunder IRL, we also saw press release after press release and article after article discussing climate change. This one-two punch of new science and the need for a new roof means we will touch on climate change in our closer look this week.
