Did life on Earth originate on another planet? Either Mars, or in a distant solar system? Could Earth life have spread to have seeded life elsewhere? Let’s see what modern science has to say about the plausibility of panspermia. You can further support us on

Welcome to another episode of Kalam Astro — your go-to show for the latest in space exploration and astronomy!We open today's episode with one of the universe's greatest unsolved puzzles — how do supermassive black holes actually grow? Thanks to the power of Artificial Intelligence, scientists have now identified 7 extraordinary quasars — cosmic giants so massive and powerful that they warp the very fabric of spacetime around them. These remarkable discoveries could hold the key to finally

Welcome to another episode of Kalam Astro — your go-to show for the latest in space exploration and astronomy!We kick off today's episode with a major milestone in space history — NASA has successfully fuelled its next-generation Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, bringing it one giant step closer to its highly anticipated August launch. The Roman Space Telescope is set to revolutionise our view of the universe with a field of view 100 times wider than the Hubble Space Telescope, and the

Space Nuts: Dark matter clues, Saturn’s new decagon, Mars and Titan missions. Andrew Dunkley and Professor Fred Watson cover a packed astronomy episode that moves from a tentative dark matter signal to a newly spotted ten sided storm pattern on Saturn. They also dig into two upcoming sample return style missions, one to Mars and one to Titan, before finishing with listener questions about Jupiter’s Great Red Spot, solar missions, gravitational waves, and AI in astronomy. Key topics In this

Welcome to another episode of Kalam Astro — your go-to show for the latest in space exploration and astronomy!We start today's episode with a moment of real concern from the surface of the Red Planet — NASA's Curiosity Mars rover has been spotted carefully inspecting one of its cracked wheels. After years of traversing the rugged, unforgiving terrain of Mars, the wear and tear on Curiosity's wheels has been a challenge engineers have been monitoring closely. We take a look at what this

Improving the detection and treatment of dementia is at the forefront of 21st-century neuroscience. As with many gnarly problems, experts are not united on how best to approach this. Some research garners lots of attention from press and public alike; some, much less so.Host Laura Simmons speaks to three scientists looking at dementia from three quite different perspectives. Fernando Gonzalez Ortiz, MD, PhD is a doctor and neuroscientist at the University of Gothenburg who specializes in

Using data from Solar Orbiter, researchers have taken a closer look than ever before at the heliospheric current sheet, a vast magnetic boundary surrounding the Sun.They discovered that changes in ion composition closely follow shifts in magnetic polarity, revealing a more complex interaction between the solar corona and solar wind. The findings could improve space weather models and our understanding of how the Sun accelerates charged particles into space.Thank you for listening to Bedtime

Astronomers using James Webb and Hubble may have finally solved the mystery of GRB 061201, a gamma-ray burst that has puzzled scientists since 2006.A faint, distant galaxy called G2 now appears to be its long-missing host, potentially resolving years of contradictions about the burst’s origin and properties.Final confirmation awaits spectroscopic observations—but the discovery shows how modern telescopes can reveal cosmic sources that remained invisible for decades.Thank you for listening to Bedtime

Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.Today we will uncover the secrets of the Tarotski needs table and the old Maslo needs table. Journey along with jean through the magical world of the brain.

Merkur ist eine Welt, die in vielerlei Hinsicht nicht ins Bild zu passen scheint. Kaum größer als unser Mond, besitzt der innerste Planet unseres Sonnensystems jedoch eine ungewöhnlich hohe Dichte. Sein riesiger Eisenkern macht zweiundachtzig Prozent des Planetenradius aus, umhüllt von einer vergleichsweise dünnen Silikatkruste. Diese Episode untersucht die konkurrierenden wissenschaftlichen Theorien über diese extreme Struktur: Wurde Merkurs äußere Schicht durch einen katastrophalen Rieseneinschlag

Au début de chaque épisode de Astronomie : Fragments d'Univers, tu remarqueras que les annonces sont toujours placées au tout début. Ce choix dans Astronomie : Fragments d'Univers n’est pas un hasard, parce que quand on écoute Astronomie : Fragments d'Univers, on veut rester plongé dans l’astronomie, sentir l’espace s’ouvrir, laisser le cosmos respirer sans interruption, voyager entre les planètes et les étoiles sans que rien ne casse ce moment. Dans Astronomie : Fragments d'Univers, l’astronomie

Ein Jahrhundert lang sahen die klügsten Beobachter der Erde gerade Linien auf dem Mars und schlossen daraus, durchaus vernünftig, dass jemand sie gebaut haben müsse. Diese Episode untersucht, wie aus dunklen Flecken und unzureichender optischer Auflösung die Idee einer bewohnten, sterbenden Welt mit gigantischen Bewässerungskanälen entstand. Wir betrachten die Beobachtungen von Giovanni Schiaparelli und Percival Lowell, die physikalischen Grenzen ihrer Teleskope und die Mechanismen der menschlichen

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers identified four pairs of mysterious Little Red Dots that may be rapidly growing black holes in the early universe.Dating back nearly 12.8 billion years, these objects could provide new clues about how galactic collisions helped create supermassive black holes so quickly.Thank you for listening to Bedtime Astronomy — your guide to the cosmos.

Everything beyond Neptune is a leftover. The icy bodies of the Kuiper Belt never got assembled into a planet, and out there — dark, cold and empty enough that things mostly leave each other alone — they are the closest thing we have to the original building blocks of the solar system, still sitting roughly where they were made. The trouble is that everything we know about them, we learned from the big ones. Ground-based telescopes stop at around twenty-five kilometres. In two papers published on 8

Scientists are taking a closer look at Kallichore, one of Jupiter’s smallest and least understood moons, ahead of potential exploration by ESA’s JUICE spacecraft.By refining its orbit and physical characteristics, researchers reduced positioning errors by 80%, helping enable a possible future flyby. This tiny, dark world could offer rare clues about the early solar system.Thank you for listening to Bedtime Astronomy — your guide to the cosmos. New episodes on space exploration, NASA missions &
