Join us today as we take a look at a possible new classification of high energy outbursts. Next, we examine the latest evidence that an exoplanet at our nearest stellar neighbor, Proxima Centauri, really exists. And finally, we go over a bunch of recent stories on asteroids and comets, including our own dinosaur-killer, Bennu, Ryugu, and Comet ATLAS.

Join us today when we learn about new research on how gamma ray bursts and hypernovae are related. Then we look at new adaptive optics that have proven images of protoplanets are real images of real planets. Finally, we are joined by Dr. Jian-Yang Li from the Planetary Science Institute to talk about interstellar comet 2I/Borisov.
