Cheap Astronomy - Dear CA # 113: The Planets
The 365 Days of Astronomy
We’ve plundered Earth, what’s next? Dear Cheap Astronomy – If we did colonize the Solar System, what would we do with the different planets? It remains to be seen if we will spread out across the solar system. While we starting to feel more confident about avoiding a mass extinction asteroid strike, a super-volcano eruption could just as easily end civilization as we know it. There’s also the more mundane scenario of where our population keeps growing, we run low on resources and then fight a bunch of wars over what’s left, pretty-much trashing what’s left of the ecosystem in the...

NOIR Lab - DESI Tests Gravity at Cosmic Scales
The 365 Days of Astronomy
Gravity has shaped our cosmos. Its attractive influence turned tiny variations in the amount of matter present in the early Universe into the sprawling strands of galaxies we see today. A new study using the first year of data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has traced how this cosmic structure grew over the past 11 billion years, providing the most precise test to date of how gravity behaves at very large scales. In this podcast, Dr. Pauline Zarrout discusses these results and the future of DESI research. Bios: Rob Sparks is in the Communications, Education and...
