Titan moving away from Saturn; Infrared photos of Phobos; Hints of new volcanism in Europe

Join us today as we analyze news that Titan is moving away from Saturn more quickly than previously thought. Also, we look at recent photos of Mars’ moon Phobos taken by NASA’s Mars Odyssey. Finally, we note that there is possibly new volcanic activity underneath Germany. After those stories, we interview Dr. Jamie Molaro from PSI about her recent paper on asteroid Bennu.

New gravitational lens candidates; Mud flows on Mars; TRAPPIST-1 planets aligned with star’s rotation

Join us today as we talk about gravitational lensing, new candidates for lenses, and how the search for Dark Energy could progress. We also look at a mud monster that is actually a lab experiment showing how mud could flow like lava on Mars. Next, we enjoy that the TRAPPIST-1 planets are orbiting as expected. And finally, we give a quick shoutout to researchers everywhere using their equipment to help in the fight against COVID-19.
