🌌 How many can you find?October 10 brings us a New Moon and one of the darkest evenings of the month. That makes it the perfect night to step outside and explore the sky. This month's Backyard Astronomer is a challenge: start with the Summer Triangle, Great Square of Pegasus and the Teapot, then follow the Milky Way, find the Big Dipper and Andromeda Galaxy, and work your way to Saturn, Titan, Neptune and the Pleiades. No expensive equipment required. Just your eyes, a dark sky, and a little

Join me as we speak with Jet Propulsion Engineer Eric Rice. Eric is the Mission Operations Manager (MOM) on NASA's SPHEREx Mission. SPHEREx stands for:Spectro-Photometer for  the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer That's a mouth-full!SPHEREx is an infrared space telescope that will collect data on more than 450 million galaxies along with more than 100 million stars in the Milky Way in order to explore the origins of the Universe.Eric explains how this unique

On our 300th epiosde, a startup company is preparing to launch the first ever fully autonomous space mission to mine an asteroid. Forecasting weather on alien worlds outside out solar system is now a thing. An asteroid has now officially been named after Weird Al. Astronomers may have discovered the first moon outside our solar system. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/made-of-stars--4746260/support.

Shockwaves are a familiar phenomenon here on Earth. In astrophysics, they play a role in some of the most powerful events in the universe, from exploding stars to gamma ray bursts. Shockwaves can transform enormous amounts of energy and carry information about events that are otherwise impossible to observe directly. Dr. Chris Irwin studies how these shocks form and evolve, and how we can use them to learn about cosmic explosions.
