The 365 Days of Astronomy

Hosted by Steve Nerlich. Episode 1a: The Relativity Vault We’re all going to die. But let’s say you’re going to die from some incurable disease – or even just from ageing – and you’ve got some time to plan ahead. One option is to assume that future science could save you. A common strategy to access this option is to get yourself frozen – or even just get your head frozen –until medical science can find a cure for whatever ails you.   Episode 1b: The welcome note One solution to Fermi’s paradox – about why there’s a universe of potentially habitable worlds out there,...

The 365 Days of Astronomy

Hosted by Tony Darnell. From Aug 25, 2023. The next big milestone in our study of exoplanets is  a telescope that can see beyond the limits of our eyes, beyond the boundaries of our solar system, beyond the frontiers of our knowledge. A telescope that can reveal the secrets of the stars and the mysteries of the planets. A telescope that can take us closer to finding another home in the cosmos. That telescope is the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, a NASA observatory that is scheduled to launch in May 2027 and explore a wide range of astronomical phenomena, including exoplanets. Get all...

Trillions of neutrinos are produced in our Sun through its nuclear reactions. These particles stream out at nearly the speed of light, and pass right through any matter they encounter. In fact, there are billions of them passing through your body right now. Learn how this elusive particle was first theorized and finally discovered.

I don’t want to alarm the listeners but there is a flurry of particles from the Sun passing through each and every one of you right now. A lot of particles. In fact, there are 50 billion solar neutrinos passing through every one of us every second. Don’t worry, you can’t feel them; they barely interact with matter, but that’s what makes them interesting.
