Podcast appearances and mentions of bruce macintosh

Did you miss out on the recent total eclipse? Don't fear, we've got the solution. We bring you the constant solar eclipse.Chelsea Whyte and Leah Crane have decided not to destroy the Sun this time. Instead, they just want to block it from view at all times. But it's all in the name of good – so everyone gets to experience the same “primal fear” Leah did when she first saw an eclipse.What starts with a modest-sized sunshade in low-Earth orbit creating 5 second eclipses, quickly turns into moving entire planets at the risk of all life on Earth. With the help of astronomer Bruce Macintosh from UC Santa Cruz, they also create the biggest piece of art ever made and call on the help of the world's knitters.Dead Planets Society is a podcast that takes outlandish ideas about how to tinker with the cosmos – from punching a hole in a planet to unifying the asteroid belt to destroying the sun – and subjects them to the laws of physics to see how they fare.Your hosts are Leah Crane and Chelsea Whyte.If you have a cosmic object you'd like to figure out how to destroy, email the team at deadplanets@newscientist.com. It may just feature in a later episode. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

NOTE: We apologize for the audio issues in this week's podcast. We are working to diagnose and resolve the issues, and we appreciate your patience as we do so. Gravitational lensing has been used to discover far-distant galaxies that are obstructed from view thanks to the inconvenient positioning of astronomical interlopers. Recently, researchers have begun asking if this same lensing technique could be adapted to use the gravity of OUR SUN to suss out never-before seen details of the more than 5000 exoplanets discovered to date. It is thought that by aligning the sun in a straight line between a space-based telescope and an exoplanet, exoplanet images could be obtained. But this would require a lot of fuel and time. Tonight's guest is Alexander Madurowicz, PhD candidate at Stanford University. Alex has developed an algorithm that reconstructs an exoplanet's surface using a single, annular image acquired by looking directly at the sun. Light from this ring is then undistorted by reversing its having been bent by the gravitational lens (i.e., our Sun,) which yields the ring of light being turned back into a whole, round planet. This method of imaging exoplanets was presented in a paper published in The Astrophysical Journal on May 2, 2022. Alex Madurowicz is a Physics PhD candidate at Stanford University. His research interests are in astronomical instrumentation, specifically for the direct imaging of extrasolar planets. He works with his advisor Bruce Macintosh and other collaborators from universities around the world on the Gemini Planet Imager project. The Gemini Planet Imager combines adaptive optics and coronagraphy to correct distortions from Earth's atmosphere and obscure noise from host stars to directly observe planets which millions of times fainter than the stars they orbit. He has also worked on speculative instrument designs such as star shades and the solar gravitational lens which could revolutionize the future of exoplanet imaging.

My submission to Bruce Macintosh, for his "Just a Runner's Podcast". Do you have a goal for 2020 you want to share with him? https://www.facebook.com/groups/309116649738245/

Hello everyone!! We bring you the 63rd episode of the podcast straight from the Breckenridge Brewery, Denver Comic Con #IamBrewt beer release party!! This special episode features your normal two hosts, Juan & Jon, as well as a bevy of special guests!! We talk all about the beer that Breckenridge Brewery and Denver Comic Con put on this year, while we drink it!! We also interview Ryan Workman from Breckenridge Brewery, about the process of this years beer. We also talk to Chris Angel, and Bruce Macintosh. They pretty much run the ins and outs of Denver Comic Con!! While we were there, Jon gave away a few different Dorbz and Pop's! Listen to people tell us what they're looking forward to at Denver Comic Con, and why they deserve one of the freebies!! Remember, you can ALWAYS let us know what you think! We can only think of so many things to talk about every other week, and would LOVE to get some feedback and ideas from all of you out there who are listening!! You can send mp3s and email to our email address. Also, join the conversations on our Facebook Page and Twitter Page. Also, if you have good feedback, please leave it for us on iTunes and Stitcher!! That's one way to help us climb the ranks into podcast glory!! You can ALSO leave us voicemail!!! Call the Michael Kuyrk memorial 970-573-6148 and leave us a hilarious message!!!

In two weeks, Jamie, Murd, and Pants will ascend to 'Podcast Peak' at the 2nd Annual Denver Comic Con. But first, our merry mountaineers (and Shane) establish base camp with convention organizers and impresarios Bruce MacIntosh, and 'Charlito' LaGreca, as they map out the mother lode of panels, guests, events, and other goodies they've got in store for those bold enough to make the climb! Even if you're not planning to attend Denver Con, give this episode a listen and learn how altitudinously awesome an ambitiously planned comic convention can be! (1:20:17)

400 years ago, our world-view changed when Galileo proved that the Earth was not the center of the universe but orbits around the Sun. 15 years ago the world shifted again when the first planets were discovered orbiting other stars. Last year, using adaptive optics and the 10 meter W.M. Keck telescope in Hawaii, a Lawrence Livermore National Lab team produced the first ever picture of another solar system. One day, these techniques may even lead to an image with a pale blue dot circling a nearby star - another Earth. Join LLNL astronomer Bruce Macintosh and Lisa Poyneer as they describe the new technologies that made these pictures possible.
