Veteran UFO researcher Rich Hoffman joins Martin Willis to discuss his remarkable six-decade journey, from investigating sightings near Project Blue Book as a teenager to helping lead the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies. Rich examines the Tic Tac encounter, reported radar jamming, government transparency, private defense contractors and the limitations of UAP videos without adequate data. They also explore the New Jersey drone wave, AI-generated UFO footage, common misidentifications,

SpaceTime Series 29 Episode 105 More evidence Mars once had liquid water More than 20 years after NASA's Mars Spirit rover landed on the red planet scientists have uncovered new evidence that suggests liquid water – essential for life as we know it -- may once have covered large parts of the Martian surface. Are mysterious little red dots hiding something big A new study claims mysterious Little Red Dots seen near the dawn of the universe are likely to reside in small, dense compact star forming

Can you believe Dr. Linda Spilker's first professional job was working for the Jet Propulsion Laboratory?! My first job was working at a vet office cleaning cages. I digress..... Join me as we speak to the world famous Dr. Linda Spilker. As the Lead Planetary Scientist on the CURRENT Voyager Mission (49 year strong!),  she will update us on the twin Voyager's health and status then speak to us about the Cassini Mission and all it's  relevant and important scientific findings. Dr. Spilker is

Astronomers have discovered three supermassive black holes inside a single ancient galaxy, J0148-4214, seen as it existed more than 12.5 billion years ago. Two lie near the galactic center and may eventually merge, while a third sits farther out.The discovery provides new clues about how galaxies and black holes grew rapidly in the early universe and could help scientists predict future gravitational-wave events.Thank you for listening to Bedtime Astronomy — your guide to the cosmos.

A cheap, pharmacy telescope changed the course of John Read's life. After years spent building a successful career in corporate finance, John pointed that telescope toward what he thought was a yellow star—and saw Saturn. The experience reignited a fascination with the night sky and eventually gave him the courage to leave behind a stable career, return to university, and build an entirely new life around astronomy.In this episode, Dr. Eiman Jahangir is joined by bestselling astronomy author and

On this episode of Kalam Astro, we're covering a dramatic telescope rescue mission, a haunting glimpse into our solar system's distant future, a growing threat to the science of astronomy itself, and an exciting milestone that hits very close to home right here in the UAE.We open with a story of high-stakes space engineering — NASA has successfully launched a rescue mission to save the Swift Space Telescope, a veteran observatory that has spent decades studying gamma-ray bursts and

On this episode of Kalam Astro, we celebrate a remarkable chapter in Mars exploration, dig into the origins of life itself, marvel at a scorched world discovered by humanity's most powerful telescope, and dare to reimagine our own planet with one of the solar system's most iconic features.We begin with a tribute to one of NASA's most accomplished missions — the MAVEN orbiter, which has now been officially retired after years of invaluable service studying the Martian atmosphere. Scientists

On this episode of Kalam Astro, we're covering one of the most historic moments in recent space exploration, a stunning planetary discovery, a robot straight out of science fiction, and a major comeback story from Japan's space program.We open with a story that feels almost magical — how laser technology kept NASA's Artemis 2 astronauts connected to the world during their epic journey around the Moon. We explore the cutting-edge optical communications system that made it possible to beam

On this episode of Kalam Astro, we're stretching the imagination, bending the rules of physics, and asking some of the biggest questions in modern space science — from planetary what-ifs to the future of the space around our own planet.We kick things off with one of the most mind-bending thought experiments in astronomy — what would actually happen if Planet Earth were the same size as Jupiter? How would gravity change? What would happen to life, to our oceans, to our atmosphere? We explore

On this episode of Kalam Astro, we're covering a dramatic mix of breaking space news, groundbreaking scientific discoveries, and a special guide to what's lighting up the UAE night sky this June.We open with a tense situation aboard the International Space Station, where astronauts were put on standby for a possible emergency evacuation while crews worked to repair an air leak on board. We look at what that process involves, what it means for the safety of the crew, and just how prepared

On this episode of Kalam Astro, we're diving into the cosmos with four fascinating topics that span the extremes of space — from violent stellar behaviour to very human emotions in zero gravity.We kick things off with a chilling discovery about red dwarf stars — the most common stars in our galaxy — and how they may actually be cosmic killers, stripping away and consuming the very planets that orbit them. What does this mean for the search for life beyond Earth?Then we bring you up to speed

What does it mean to look at the the entire sky all at once in radio waves?Charting the Course This episode dives into the world of radio astronomy with Dr. Jayce Dowell, research Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of New Mexico (UNM) and a leading scientist for the Long Wavelength Array (LWA). Unlike the VLA the LWA explores the entire visible sky all at once, and electronics and software give it unique abilities and views of the universe. I met him at

A new Life 2.0 mission concept could transform the search for extraterrestrial life. Instead of relying on one enormous telescope, the design uses 900 small spacecraft flying in formation to create the light-gathering power of a 30-meter telescope.By analyzing planetary atmospheres for oxygen, water vapor, and other biosignatures, this distributed observatory could offer a scalable new way to search for potentially habitable worlds.Thank you for listening to Bedtime Astronomy — your guide to the

In Frank Waters’s 1963 Book of the Hopi, a world faces destruction by fire, and selected survivors descend beneath the earth. There, in the Waters/Fredericks publication lineage, they encounter the Ant People: underground hosts said to possess rooms, stored provisions, and the ability to shelter humanity until the surface can sustain life again.The account became one of the most striking stories in ancient-mystery culture. Modern writers have suggested that the Ant People may have been advanced

In this week's episode, Michelle and Payel ask whether early dark energy leaves a detectable imprint on large-scale structure, and whether Venus once had a moon — and what might have happened to it. They also each pick a paper using forbidden line emission to probe galaxy evolution, including one testing whether some extremely metal-poor galaxies are impostors.
