EVSN - End-Permian Extinction Lasted 10X Longer on Land Than in Water

Exoplanet Radio - Life in Terminator Zones
The 365 Days of Astronomy
From September 12, 2023. Hosted by Tony Darnell. Based on our experience here on Earth, we know life here to be tenacious and ubiquitous. Even in the harshest climates, if we look hard enough, we can usually find some sort of life there. We are hoping the same is true on worlds around other stars, and recent research has begun looking into the question of whether life on other worlds could exist in the most inhospitable environs: the terminator zone of tidally locked planets.

Making use of the Gemini North telescope, one half of the International Gemini Observatory, astronomers have characterized the largest-ever early-Universe radio jet. Historically, such large radio jets have remained elusive in the distant Universe. In this podcast, Dr. Anniek Gloudemans discusses how this object was discovered, the follow up observations and what we have learned about radio jets in the early Universe. Bios: - Rob Sparks is in the Communications, Education and Engagement group at NSF’s NOIRLab in Tucson, Arizona. - Anniek Gloudemans is a postdoctoral fellow at...

info_outlineFrom April 27, 2021.
The biggest mass extinction event on Earth occurred at the end of the Permian period, resulting in the extinction of 95% of marine life and 80% of terrestrial life. Now, scientists have found that the terrestrial portion of the event lasted nearly ten times as long as the ocean version. Plus, a spaghettified star, the search for Moon Trees, all about Mars, and new works on dark matter and dark energy.
