EVSN - Happy Space News!
The 365 Days of Astronomy
From May 21, 2025. This week, we take a closer look at the weirdly twisty search for a possible planet in our outer solar system. We'll also take in the happy science of aurorae here, at Jupiter, and over Neptune, as well as a bunch of weird discoveries that has some people screaming "It's Aliens!" (it's not aliens). We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs. Just visit: and donate as much as you can!

Awesome Astronomy - We've Discovered At Least 5,000 Planets!
The 365 Days of Astronomy
Ralph Wilkins and Dr. Jenifer “Dr. Dust” Millard host. Damien Phillips, John Wildridge and Dustin Ruoff produce. From Jan 28, 2022. Taking a look at how over the last 40 years we went from only knowing of the handful of planets in our solar system to knowing of around 5,000 planets littering the galaxy. How have we discovered new planets? How many are there? How many stars have planets around them? Are there star systems with multiple planets like our solar system? Do we see the diversity of large gassy, small rocky and ringed planets around other...

Astronomy Cast Ep. 758: Non-Roving Rovers
The 365 Days of Astronomy
Streamed live on May 26, 2025. Hosted by: Fraser Cain and Dr. Pamela L. Gay Some of our favorite robots are rovers currently roving around the surface of the Moon & Mars. But there’s some pretty tricky terrain out there and engineers are scheming up clever ways to explore other worlds inspired by life that crawls, slithers, hops and flies. As we explore more surfaces and more complex surfaces throughout the solar system, mission teams are designing robot explorers that don't sit still and also don't rove. In this episode, we're going to take a look at the new technologies that are...

Travelers in the Night Eps. 315 & 316: See Comets & Weird Centaur
The 365 Days of Astronomy
Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. From January 2017 & August 2024. Today's 2 topics: - 2017 will be (was) a good year to view comets with your unaided eye or a pair of binoculars. - My Catalina Sky Survey teammate Richard Kowalski was surprised to find a moving point of light on some his images which was more than 50 times brighter than a typical Earth approaching object he observes. He was even more amazed when it was not cataloged as a known object and...

UNAWE Space Scoop - Could This Be One of the Strangest Planets Ever Found?
The 365 Days of Astronomy
Recently, a team of astronomers found a new exoplanet, called 2M1510 (AB) b, that really surprised them. This new exoplanet is special — its orbit looks more like a Ferris wheel! It goes up and over the top rather than around the side, traveling at a right angle to the carousel-like path we normally find. But having an unusual orbit is only part of the puzzle, and to see just how odd our new exoplanet is we also need to look at its stars.

EVSN - A Failing Look at Earth, a First Look at Other Worlds, & More
The 365 Days of Astronomy
From May 19, 2025. In this week’s closer look we are going to look at the earth-facing missions that are getting dragged down by our atmosphere and will be forcibly retired by physics in the next few years, again with no replacements in the works. These missions allow us to do long term monitoring of our planet, its atmosphere, and the variables that help us understand everything from weather to climate change. We also look at cool new exoplanet discoveries, the beautiful death of a star, and tales from the launch pad. We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to...

Cheap Astronomy - Dear CA Ep. 118: Reflections
The 365 Days of Astronomy
Self-consciousness. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Selfies in space. Buzz Aldrin claims to have taken the first selfie in space in 1966, where he fixed a Hasselblad camera on the hull on Gemini 12 and then leant back before triggering the camera. Later on, in 1969, Neil Armstrong took an accidental selfie – the only still photo of him on the Moon where he and his camera are reflected in Buzz Aldrin’s visor. Dear Cheap Astronomy – Is Hawking Radiation real? Long-term listeners are probably familiar with Cheap Astronomy’s tendency to go a bit ranty in the face of any unreasonable...
