When a Sun-like star nears the end of its life and eventually engulfing the system’s inner planets. Today podcast will discuss about how astronomers caught one in the act.
Today @AwesomeAstroPod look at what makes the moon shine, why the moon looks different every night and how objects from dust and asteroids to stars and galaxies either reflect or emit their own light.
Why Does the Sun Continue to Shine? Today @AwesomeAstroPod take a look at what stars are (and our Sun is just a star), how they are born, their chaotic lives and violent deaths.
Quick guide to the astronomy events to observe over the next few months. Farewell Frank Drake, Artemis 1 delays, and monthly round up with @AwesomeAstroPod
How big is the Sun? How do we know? How does it compare to the planets in our solar system and other stars in the galaxy? What’s the fate of the Sun?
