Join us for this week’s Rocket Roundup with host Annie Wilson. We look at the rocket launches that did and did not happen since our last update, including, of course, the SpaceX Crew Dragon launch. We also cover a couple of Chinese launches, one Russian launch, one Japanese launch, the Virgin Orbit test launch, and the explosion of SN4.
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 live from the Virtual Balticon! We look at the new discovery of a ring galaxy 11 billion years back in time. We talk about today’s scheduled Virgin Orbit cubesat launch. And we go behind the scenes at how the Daily Space is made.
Join us today as we talk about radio transmitters found in the twinkling heart of the Milky Way. Then we’ll look at an asteroid that has a comet-like tail. And finally, Bennu is about to be sampled by OSIRIS-Rex, and we helped make that happen!

Additionally, we talk about ULA launching the USAF’s Orbital Test Vehicle, aka the X-37B spaceplane.
