The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
Today's 'guest' is HAD's This Month in Astronomical History. I'll be reading more essays from the archives: Emily McMahon's November 2020 essay titled, "Sedna: In the Depths of the Solar System", and Dr. Ken Rumstay's November 2022 essay titled, "Lunokhod 1 - The First Extraterrestrial Rover". Please note that Emily was a high school student when she wrote her essay, so you don't have to be an astronomer or astrophysicist to write for TMIAH. H'ad astra historia is the official podcast for the Historical Astronomy Division of the American Astronomical Society. We're here to share stories from and about the people who study the stars, planets, and the cosmos. We'll be hearing from individuals who not only study the history of astronomy, but also those who lived it, who were "in the room" during pivotal events within the last 50 years or so.

Video games didn't just become bigger than film, music and TV. They became places people went, watched, gathered, spent money, and built memories inside.In this episode of Geekstorians, Dave from Geektown looks at how gaming quietly became the largest entertainment industry on Earth, and why nobody really announced it.The story begins in April 2020, when millions of people attended Travis Scott's Astronomical concert inside Fortnite. To some, it looked like a clever pandemic workaround. But for players, this was not a sudden novelty. Fortnite had already become a venue, a stage, a social space, and a place where culture could happen.From there, we trace the rise of the pixel economy: the fragmented numbers that made gaming's scale strangely hard to see, the smartphone turning play into an everyday habit, the rise of streaming and esports, and the transformation of games from products into persistent worlds.Because somewhere along the way, games stopped being things you played and became places you went.This week's episode explores how gaming became bigger than film, music and television without a single cultural handover moment, why mobile gaming changed everything, how streaming turned games into something people watched as well as played, why esports made gaming visible at arena scale, and how Minecraft, Fortnite and Roblox changed the idea of what a game could be.For more from Geektown, including TV, film and gaming news, reviews, interviews, and Geektown Radio, head to Geektown.co.uk.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/geektown.

Story Transcript:Hu: A Budapest Tudományos Múzeum zsongott a nyári turistáktól.En: The Budapest Tudományos Múzeum buzzed with summer tourists.Hu: A hűvös, klímával ellátott termek hosszú sora kínálta magát.En: A long line of cool, air-conditioned rooms presented themselves.Hu: Az interaktív kiállítások között volt a csillagászat részlege is, ami sejtelmes, tompított fénnyel fogadta a látogatókat, hogy a galaxisok és csillagképek élénk kijelzői érvényesülhessenek.En: Among the interactive exhibitions was the astronomy section, which welcomed visitors with mysterious, dimmed lights so that the vivid displays of galaxies and constellations could shine through.Hu: Ez a rész népszerű menedékhely volt a kinti hőség elől, de leginkább a kíváncsiságot ébresztette.En: This section was a popular refuge from the outdoor heat, but most importantly, it sparked curiosity.Hu: Ákos, egy csillagászat iránt rajongó, kíváncsi, de introvertált fiatalember, csendben sétált a tárlók között.En: Ákos, a curious but introverted young man passionate about astronomy, quietly walked among the displays.Hu: Mindig is érezte a kapcsolat hiányát az emberekkel, de a csillagok világa mindig is közelebb hozta hozzá az univerzumot.En: He had always felt a lack of connection with people, but the world of stars always brought the universe closer to him.Hu: Ma is csak egy dolog járt a fejében – találni valakit, aki osztozik az ő szenvedélyében.En: Today, he had only one thing on his mind – to find someone who shares his passion.Hu: Egy színes galaxis képernyője előtt ácsorogva megpillantott egy lányt.En: Standing in front of a colorful galaxy screen, he noticed a girl.Hu: Emese ott állt, és bámulta az Androméda-galaxist.En: Emese stood there, staring at the Andromeda Galaxy.Hu: Lenyűgözte, hogyan jelenítheti meg a csillagok fényét a saját műveiben.En: She was fascinated by how she could depict the light of stars in her own works.Hu: Emese, akinek színes egyénisége és szenvedélyes természete sokfelé elkalandozott, most úgy érezte, hogy a kozmosz mégis valami különös inspirációt kínál neki.En: With a colorful personality and a passionate nature that wandered in many directions, Emese now felt that the cosmos offered her a strange inspiration.Hu: Ákos megállt, nem tudta, megszólítsa-e.En: Ákos stopped, unsure if he should speak to her.Hu: A belső bizonytalanság sokszor megakadályozta abban, hogy kezdeményezzen.En: His inner uncertainty often prevented him from making the first move.Hu: Viszont valami azt súgta neki, hogy érdemes megpróbálni.En: Yet something whispered to him that it was worth a try.Hu: Hosszan vett egy mély levegőt, és odalépett Emeséhez.En: He took a deep breath and approached Emese.Hu: "Szerinted mi a legszebb csillagkép?En: "What do you think is the most beautiful constellation?"Hu: " – kérdezte halkan, mégis reménykedve.En: he asked softly, yet hopefully.Hu: Emese kíváncsian tekintett rá: "Talán a Hattyú.En: Emese looked at him curiously: "Perhaps Hattyú.Hu: Gyönyörű és különleges.En: It's beautiful and special.Hu: És neked?En: And for you?"Hu: "Ákos szeme felcsillant: "A Fiastyúk.En: Ákos's eyes lit up: "Fiastyúk.Hu: Mindig is szerettem, hogyan ragyog az égen.En: I've always loved how it shines in the sky."Hu: "Beszélgetésük egyre mélyült, mint a csillagokkal teli galaxis.En: Their conversation deepened like a galaxy filled with stars.Hu: Észrevétlenül rátértek az Androméda-galaxisra, ráébredve, hogy mindketten mennyire vonzódnak hozzá.En: They seamlessly transitioned to the Andromeda Galaxy, realizing how both were drawn to it.Hu: Ahogy szavak mögött egy közös világ kezdett kibontakozni, egyértelművé vált, hogy valami különleges dolog alakul közöttük.En: As a shared world began to unfold behind their words, it became clear that something special was developing between them.Hu: A múzeumból kifele menet Ákos és Emese megbeszélték, hogy legközelebb a csillagok alatt folytatják találkozójukat.En: As they left the museum, Ákos and Emese agreed to continue their meeting under the stars next time.Hu: Egy budapesti obszervatóriumban akarták folytatni a beszélgetést a csillagok és a művészetek világáról.En: They wanted to carry on their conversation about the worlds of stars and arts at a Budapest observatory.Hu: Ákos úgy érezte, megtalálta azt a személyt, aki osztozik az álmaiban, Emese pedig inspirációra lelt a csillagokkal kapcsolatos megértés mélységében.En: Ákos felt he had found the person who shared his dreams, while Emese found inspiration in the depth of understanding related to stars.Hu: Most mindketten tudták, hogy az ő univerzumuk tágasabb lett.En: Now both knew that their universe had expanded.Hu: Ákos többé nem érzett távolságot másoktól, Emese pedig barátot és múzsát talált a csillagok között.En: Ákos no longer felt distant from others, and Emese had found a friend and muse among the stars.Hu: A csillagok tehát nem csak elérhetetlen pontok voltak az égen, hanem hidak is, amelyek összehozzák az embereket.En: Thus, the stars were not just unreachable points in the sky, but bridges that bring people together.

Astronomical data presents unique challenges for artificial intelligence, often requiring specialized AI models tailored to the needs of astrophysicists and large-scale scientific research. Scientists at the Center for Astrophysics — a collaboration between the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory and Harvard College Observatory — developed the AstroAI Institute to help researchers analyze massive datasets and accelerate scientific discovery through AI-driven analysis. At the 2026 SCSP AI+Expo, the institute's Founder and Director Cecilia Garraffo told GovCIO Media & Research the center is using AI to search for unexpected patterns in large data sets and cluster data based on similarity without prior coding, enabling scientists to detect new phenomena and uncover previously unseen relationships. Garraffo also discussed the growing need for AI education and workforce development across the scientific community. She explained how AstroAI is helping train researchers at all levels — from students to senior scientists — to use AI effectively in astrophysics research and discovery.
Veronique de Rugy critiques the feasibility of single-payer healthcare in America. Citing Vermont's failed experiment, she highlights the astronomical tax increases required to fund such systems.

Sponsor Link:To check out our special NordVPN savings: Click HereEpisode Summary In this episode of Astronomy Daily, Anna and Avery explore six major stories from the world of space and astronomy. Leading the show is a landmark result from the ALMA telescope: the first-ever measurement of semi-heavy water inside an interstellar object. The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS contains up to 40 times more deuterium-rich water than Earth's oceans, revealing it formed in an ultracold environment very unlike our own solar system. The hosts then unpack the solution to a decades-long mystery: a massive binary star system near the galactic centre is responsible for the gas clouds feeding the Milky Way's supermassive black hole. Japan's MMX spacecraft — currently on the launch pad — is introduced, along with the exciting detail that its sample capsule will return Phobos material to Australian soil in 2031. Stellar archaeologists at ISTA have found fossilised magnetism on white dwarf stars, shedding light on the Sun's distant future. A thought-provoking segment examines the idea that any alien civilisation searching for intelligent life may already have detected us. And the episode closes with timely aurora and comet skywatching advice for Southern Hemisphere listeners.

SpaceTime Series 29 Episode 47 *Are black holes from before the Big Bang shaping the Universe A new study suggests that ancient black holes from before the big bang may be shaping the universe. The idea is that the cosmos goes through eternal never ending cycles of expanding out from a big bang and then eventually collapsing in a big crunch which triggers another big band and so on. *The bathtub ring hinting at an ancient Martian ocean Scientists have identified geological features on Mars that appear to point to a vast sea shore or coast line stretching around the red planet's northern hemisphere. *A just award for studying the stars The bi-annual Berenice and Arthur Page Medal winners for excellence in amateur astronomy for 2026 have been presented to Chris Stockdale, Jonathan Bradshaw and Renato Langersek at the Annual National Australian Convention of Amateur Astronomers in Tamworth. *The Science Report Study shows heart risk patterns of obesity differ between men and women.

Artemis II, Comet MAPS, and Mercury: Your Space Week Just Got Very Busy It's Day 3 of the Artemis II mission, a sungrazer comet is emerging from the solar corona, an Atlas V just set a payload record, and Mercury is at its best of the year. Here's everything you need to know from today's episode of Astronomy Daily. Artemis II Flight Day 3: Orion Doesn't Even Need a Course Correction Four humans are on their way to the Moon, and everything is going better than planned. Flight controllers cancelled the first of three scheduled trajectory correction burns today — Orion is already on such a precise path that the burn simply wasn't needed. As Howard Hu, NASA's Orion program manager, noted, this reflects exceptional navigation performance throughout the mission. The crew — Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, Mission Specialist Christina Koch, and CSA astronaut Jeremy Hansen — spent Day 3 on medical readiness drills, practising CPR in weightlessness and checking out the spacecraft's medical equipment. They also successfully tested Orion's optical communications system, transmitting HD video back to Earth from deep space. On Monday, April 6th, Orion will swing around the lunar far side at its closest approach — briefly out of radio contact with Earth — and at the mission's farthest point will travel 252,757 miles from home. That breaks the human spaceflight distance record set by Apollo 13 in 1970. Fifty-six years. We're finally going further. Comet MAPS: The Solar Plunge Is Done — Now Comes the Wait At 14:22 UTC on April 4th, Comet C/2026 A1 (MAPS) reached perihelion — passing just 161,000 kilometres from the surface of the Sun, skimming through the lower solar corona. Whether it survived that encounter is still being determined from spacecraft imagery, as the comet remains in the Sun's glare for ground-based observers. If MAPS emerges intact, the Southern Hemisphere viewing window opens April 6th to 10th. Look west after sunset, low on the horizon, near Venus. Brightness predictions range from magnitude -5 (comparable to Venus) to extraordinary scenarios even brighter. Even a nucleus breakup could leave a spectacular dust tail — what's known as a 'headless wonder.' Either way, this story is not over. Atlas V Sets a Record: 29 Amazon Leo Satellites, Heaviest Payload Ever At 1:45 a.m. Eastern Time on April 4th, a ULA Atlas V 551 lifted off from Cape Canaveral carrying 29 Amazon Leo satellites — the heaviest payload in the rocket's 102-mission history. Mission LA-05 continues Amazon's build-out of its 3,200-satellite internet constellation (formerly Project Kuiper), with around 241 satellites now on orbit. Amazon faces an FCC deadline to have half its constellation operational by July 2026. Blue Ghost Challenges a Fundamental View of the Moon New data from Firefly Aerospace's Blue Ghost lander — which operated on the lunar surface for two weeks in March 2025 — is shaking up decades of lunar science. Scientists expected Blue Ghost's landing site at Mare Crisium, well outside the Moon's 'hot zone,' to show significantly cooler interior temperatures than Apollo landing sites. It didn't. The near-side/far-side temperature divide may be far less pronounced than previously thought, suggesting heat-producing elements are more widely distributed beneath the surface. 'We may have to abandon that binary,' said principal investigator Seiichi Nagihara. Pulsars Broadcast Further Than Anyone Knew — With Australian Science Behind the Discovery A study led by Professor Michael Kramer (Max Planck Institute) and Dr Simon Johnston (CSIRO) has found that about one third of millisecond pulsars emit radio waves from two completely separate regions — including a distant zone at the very edge of their magnetic reach called the current sheet. This overturns decades of received wisdom and suggests pulsars should be detectable from a wider range of directions than previously thought — with implications for gravitational wave detection using pulsar timing arrays. Mercury Is at Its Best All Year — And Southern Hemisphere Skywatchers Win Mercury reached greatest western elongation on April 3rd — the year's best opportunity to see the innermost planet. From Australia and New Zealand, this is specifically the best morning apparition of Mercury in 2026. Look east about 30-40 minutes before sunrise for a steady point of light at around magnitude 0.4, just above Mars. Through binoculars or a small telescope, Mercury is currently showing a half-illuminated quarter phase. And on April 18th, Mercury, Saturn, Mars, and Neptune will gather in a tight morning-sky cluster — three of them visible to the naked eye.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/astronomy-daily-space-news-updates--5648921/support.Sponsor Details:Ensure your online privacy by using NordVPN.

shrinkflation Shrinkflation Is Robbing You Blind | Episode 590 Good morning. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com. It's 46 degrees. I'm cold. I don't like being cold. But that's not what we're talking about today. Today we're talking about something that affects every single one of us every single week. Shrinkflation. And how companies are quietly screwing you over while pretending nothing changed. Listen now. What Shrinkflation Actually Is Shrinkflation is simple. The bag looks the same.The box looks the same.The price looks the same. But you're getting less. Your “pound” bag of chips? Not a pound anymore.16 ounces becomes 14.5 ounces.Same packaging. Same shelf space. Same mental price anchor. They don't raise the price because people notice price increases. They shrink the product because most people never check the weight. That's the game. Why It Works on Your Brain Everyone has internal price anchors. You know what Coke “should” cost.You know what ground beef “should” cost.You know what eggs “should” cost. When the price jumps too far past that mental number, you hesitate. You buy less. You switch brands. So instead of raising prices aggressively, companies keep the sticker steady and shave ounces off the back end. That's less likely to trigger your brain. And it works. The Worst Offenders Right Now Chips.Soda.Single-serve snacks. The further you get from bulk, the worse the value gets. A 12-pack of Coke creeping toward $9.97? That's insane. Run the unit math. If it's buy 2 get 3 free at Kroger, do the math.Total cost divided by total units. If it comes out to $4 a case? That's closer to reality. Unit price is king. Always. Same with meat. Ground beef has exploded. But sometimes a 50/50 beef-pork blend at Walmart hits that sweet spot. Closer to ingredients = better value.Closer to convenience = you're getting wrecked. Ingredients Beat Snacks Every Time Plain oats? Still solid.Rice? Still dependable.Flour? Still cheap. Bulk ingredients have padding built in. They absorb inflation better. Single-serve cookies? Astronomical. Two cookies can cost almost as much as a full bag. And if you run the math on making them from scratch, the ROI is ridiculous. The closer you move toward bulk, the better your survival position gets. That's not theory. That's math. Group Buys Might Be the Secret Weapon This might be its own episode. But think about this. Shipping kills value. Whether it's supplements, bulk meat, or specialty items. Split that shipping with friends? Now the math changes. Split a primal cut of beef.Split bulk orders.Split shipping costs. Suddenly your unit price drops dramatically. We talk prepping all the time. But cost discipline is prep too. Final Thoughts Shrinkflation is real. They're not just raising prices. They're reducing value. Your defense is simple: Check weight.Check unit price.Buy bulk.Run the math.Split costs when you can. Stop shopping emotionally.Start shopping strategically. That's survival in 2026. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com. DIY to survive.

If there is one word in dentistry that gets people sweating, it's the word ‘sales'.Sometimes the term ‘sales' can have a negative connotation. Sales is helping people achieve better outcomes, whether it's in healthcare or otherwise, it's about understanding your patient or your customer and helping them with a solution. In dentistry, we use other words like ‘case acceptance' or ‘case presentation' in an effort to not use the word ‘sales'.In today's episode, Jesse is joined by Abbie White who specialises in high performance sales and charting the future of sales and AI in the dental industry. Most people agree that Abbie White is a mover and shaker and one of Australia's most dynamic sales experts.Abbie's superpower is being the marriage counsellor for sales AND marketing, in order to deliver an astronomical ROI.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 2In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore the intriguing history of our galaxy and the secrets of Earth's early water retention.Unraveling the Milky Way's Chemical BimodalityA groundbreaking study suggests that the Milky Way's stellar formation and its unique chemical bimodality may stem from intergalactic gas rather than traditional star formation or galactic collisions. Researchers utilized advanced computer simulations to analyze the formation of 30 simulated galaxies, revealing that the Milky Way's distinct groups of stars, defined by their iron and magnesium content, can emerge through various mechanisms. This research not only enhances our understanding of the Milky Way's evolution but also challenges previous assumptions about the role of smaller galaxies in shaping its chemical structure.Earth's Mantle: A Reservoir of Ancient WaterNew findings indicate that Earth's mantle may have locked away vast amounts of water during the planet's formative magma ocean phase. Researchers discovered that bridgmanite, the most abundant mineral in the mantle, could store significant quantities of water, potentially equating to the volume of all today's oceans. This study reshapes our understanding of how water was retained during Earth's extreme early conditions and its role in the transition to a habitable planet. The implications of this research may provide insights into the geological processes that sustain Earth's dynamic environment.The Astronomy of Standing StonesReflecting on archaeological astronomy, we revisit a pivotal study that revealed how ancient standing stones in Britain were constructed with astronomical alignments in mind. This research confirms that the earliest stone monuments, including the Great Circles of Scotland, were intentionally oriented to mark the movements of the sun and moon. By examining the patterns of alignment, researchers established a connection between these ancient structures and the cultural significance of celestial events, illustrating the sophisticated understanding early Britons had of their environment and the cosmos.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical SocietyJournal of ScienceJournal of Archaeological Science ReportsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) This is Space Time Series 29, Episode 2 for broadcast on 5 January 2026(00:00:47) New study on the Milky Way's chemical bimodality(00:12:30) How bridgmanite in Earth's mantle may have stored ancient water(00:20:10) The astronomical significance of ancient standing stones in Britain(00:25:00) Science Robert: Sleep apnea linked to Parkinson's disease and more news in science
* Boulder, Colorado's Planetarium Show on Christ's Birth: For Christmas, we're enjoying this classic Real Science Radio broadcast about the University of Colorado's Fiske Planetarium presentation of a live program, The Astronomical Star of Bethlehem, by amateur astronomer Gil Buller. From the planetarium's website, "This exciting program examines the sky at the time of the birth of Christ to see which astronomical phenomenon may have been the Star of Bethlehem." * Orbital Mechanics Help Identify the Star of Bethlehem: Using computer-generated images of the night sky in ancient Israel, this planetarium program does in great style what Bob Enyart's DVD does using more modest computer simulation software.

s of the Hubble Constant — Bob Zimmerman — Zimmerman outlines a fundamental crisis in cosmological understanding regarding the Hubble constant, the astronomical parameter measuring the rate at which the universe is systematically expanding across time and space. Zimmerman documents that the measurement crisis stems from irreducible conflicting empirical data: when astronomers measure the early universe using distant supernovae and cosmic microwave background radiation, they derive a lower expansion rate number, yet when they measure the near universeusing contemporary observations of local galactic clusters, they derive a significantly higher expansion rate number. Zimmerman emphasizes that this discrepancy does not result from imprecise or unreliable data; rather, both measurement methodologies have become increasingly sophisticated and accurate, yet the fundamental contradiction persists despite technological improvements. Zimmerman argues that the persistent contradiction between two highly accurate but incompatible numerical values indicates that "something is fundamentally wrong with the cosmology and the theories," suggesting that current scientific understanding of the Big Bang, cosmic evolution, and the universe's fundamental physical properties contains critical errors requiring radical theoretical revision. Zimmerman employs an analogy: if measuring a child's growth rate during their first year of life predicted they should be 4 feet tall, but contemporary measurement reveals them to be 5 feet tall, and both measurements are perfectly accurate, then the mathematical formula governing human growth is fundamentally flawed—similarly, the Hubble constant contradiction suggests current cosmological models misunderstand the universe's fundamental physics and evolutionary trajectory.

In this solo episode, Darin explores a radical idea backed by ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience: that awe — a single embodied moment of wonder — may be the fastest biological doorway to expanding consciousness. Drawing on cutting-edge research, timeless spiritual traditions, and personal stories, Darin reveals how awe reduces inflammation, rewires the brain, quiets the ego, boosts vagal tone, expands time perception, and reconnects us to meaning in a world drowning in distraction.
