Join us today as we look at four exoplanets being “cooked” by their star. We discuss a study that reveals that organic molecules existed in the Universe before stars even formed. And we examine a new story on the possibility for intelligent life in our galaxy.
Join us today as we look at six different astronomy stories. We start with a new clock of solar activity, then talk about three articles on updates to fundamental theories. We follow up with interstellar parallax observations and an exoplanet discovered through backyard astronomy.
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.
Join us today for a story on another repeating fast radio burst. We talk about hot corinos and how one that went missing is now found. And we discuss research that shows evidence for prebiotic molecules in tiny dust grains covered in ice.
Join us today while we talk about the early formation of stars and galaxies in the universe. We find some joy in an astronomer using 25-year old data to prove that Proxima c exists. And we learn about the Kepler-160 system which is very reminiscent of our own Sun-Earth system.
Join us today while we take a look at Fermi bubbles and their relationship to the Magellanic Stream. We examine new research on the origin galaxies of some Fast Radio Bursts. And we learn about how Mars’ moon Deimos provided evidence that Mars once had a ring.
