Brian Cox and Robin Ince look back at Planet Earth from the unique perspective of space with the help of astronauts Nicole Stott and Chris Hadfield, Space scientist Carolyn Porco and comedian and author Katy Brand. What can we learn about our own planet by looking back at it from space? The panel talk about the emotional response of looking back on earth, either from the ISS or via amazing photographs like Voyager's Pale Blue Dot, and the importance of realising our own place and significance in the vast cosmos. Executive Producer: Alexandra Feachem

This week: Yuval Noah Harari speaks with Andrew Yang, Jonathan Haidt on why the last ten years have been uniquely stupid, why coastal cities are sinking, how a working-class Aussie miner got invited to NASA, and how to spot the alignment of four planets this month.YUVAL HARARI & ANDREW YANGYuval Noah Harari, the historian and author of the best-selling book “Sapiens”, has talked to US presidential candidate Andrew Yang in a fascinating conversation about AI, public policy and the future of work.Andrew is known for campaigning for universal basic income- a very controversial idea, especially in the United States. He's also very concerned about job automation, and what happens to people who lose their careers due to technological advancements.His insights go hand in hand with Yuval, who has written extensively on what happens when we face massive technological changes, such as the Industrial Revolution, or the now with the AI Revolution.They discuss how job automation and idless can lead to people heading down rabbit holes of political and religious extremism, and how the war in Ukraine may be our biggest motivation to move away from fossil fuels.Yep- they cover some very important topics, and we definitely recommend you give it a watch and let us know your thoughts in the comments section.And if you're interested in the ethical implications of AI and automation- don't miss our Philosophical Ethics course starting next month. Sign up at the link in our bio.JON HAIDTEveryone's talking about Jonathan Haidt's latest essay “Why the Past 10 Years of American Life Have Been Uniquely Stupid”, published last week in The Atlantic.It's been called the best explanation of how social media is making us unfit for democracy. And in it, Jon uses the metaphor of the tower of Babel.If you went to a religious school, maybe you know the story- but if you don't, the cliff notes version is that after the Great Flood, a group of people speaking one shared language built a tower tall enough to reach heaven.This made God angry, and he thinks that these people have gotten too big for their boots, and are going to get more and more cocky. So he confuses their language so they can't understand each other, therefore stopping their ability to work together.According to Jon Haidt, a social psychologist, this is what social media is doing to us.We hoped social media would help us work together, but instead it is fracturing the way we communicate, and it's having terrible effects on our society.And if you haven't yet, grab yourself a SIGNED copy of Jon's must-read book, “The Righteous Mind” from our shop. We only have one copy left! Head to the link in our bio.SINKING CITIESHave you got that sinking feeling?Well if you live in a coastal city, that's literally what's happening to you.Earth scientists recently published a paper showing that coastal cities around the globe are sinking by up to 5 centimetres a year! They studied the satellite imagery of 99 cities on 6 continents to find that the sinkiest cities are mostly in Asia- such as Tianjin, Karachi and Manila.While rising sea levels due to climate change play a major role in the sinking, scientists believe that most of it is caused by humans.When the researchers looked at Google Earth imagery of the sinking regions, the team saw mostly residential or commercial areas, leading them to believe that groundwater pumping is the main culprit.But there's hope! Back in the day, Shanghai and Jakarta were sinking more than 10 centimetres per year, on average. Then their governments better regulated groundwater extraction, and the sinking has slowed right down.AMATEUR ASTRONOMERThis miner from outback Australia went from being a school dropout to a prized astronomer!His name is Trevor Barry, and he's the recent recipient of the Astronomical Society of Australia award. He's known in the space world for his contributions to astronomy, all done from his backyard in the isolated town of Broken Hill.Trevor left high school to take up an apprenticeship at one of the local mines, but he always wondered why the night sky looked the way it did. His obsession with astronomy reached its peak when he designed and built his own observatory and telescopes!In 2008 he found a white spot on his favourite planet, Saturn, which ended up being an electrical storm. NASA and the Cassini team have used Trevor's data, and three years ago Trevor got to travel to NASA's headquarters to meet the leader of the Cassini imaging team, Carolyn Porco.We love Trevor's story- it teaches us that there are so many alternative pathways to achieve success, and that all you need is passion!If you're an amateur astronomer, come study cosmology at Think Inc Academy with Professor Alan Duffy. Sign up at the link in our bio.APRIL SKIESSky gazers- this is your month!April is perhaps the best month for peeping our planets. Yep- April skies are so clear there's even a song written about them.Beginning around Sunday morning, you'll be able to see something pretty rare- Mars, Venus, Jupiter AND Saturn in one straight line.To see this awesome planetary foursome, those of us in the Southern Hemisphere should head out about an hour before sunrise and look to the southeast, where the sun is about to rise.There you'll be able to see with your naked eyes all four planets in a neat line.While this makes sky gazing far easier, the line is just an optical illusion. The planets aren't actually lined up, and from any other vantage point in space you'd be able to see that they're far apart.If you're someone who's always gazing up into space thinking about the meaning of it all- come along to see theoretical physicist Brian Greene LIVE in conversation this June. You'll have the chance to pick Brian's brain about life's biggest questions. Tickets are at the link in our bio.---That's all for this week- we hope you learned something new!

It all comes back to Cassini. Without that groundbreaking mission, and more specifically the 400,000 images it took, there is no Quantum Quest or In Saturn's Rings. I spoke with Dr. Carolyn Porco, who led the imaging team on Cassini and was ultimately responsible for taking those images and distributing them to the public.  Finding Quantum Quest is a production of Du Vide Media. Written and produced by Spencer Wirth-Davis. Co-produced by Ryan Kopperud and Sam McCullough. Story editing by Sierra DeMulder-Eyres and Katie Roth. Special thanks to Eric Mayson.

Dr. Carolyn Porco is a planetary scientist who is renowned for her imaging work on NASA's Voyager mission to Uranus and Neptune in the 1980s, and for her leadership of the Imaging Science team on the 27-year-long Cassini mission to Saturn. In fact, Neil deGrasse Tyson calls her "Madame Saturn". She is the recipient of many prestigious awards, such as the American Astronomical Society's Carl Sagan Medal for Excellence in the Communication of Science to the Public and the Distinguished Alumni Award from her alma mater, The California Institute of Technology.  In 2012, she was named one of TIME magazine's 25 most influential people in space. She is also a life-long and die-hard fan of The Beatles.    Follow Carolyn on Twitter: @CarolynPorco   Carolyn's Captain's Log from John's 60th birthday: http://ciclops.org/index/2078/Captain's_Logs and movie for Paul: http://ciclops.org/view.php?id=24   For more Captain's Logs and epic images of Saturn, you can check out her CICLOPS website here: ciclops.org   For a full transcript with photos attached, check out our website BeatlesEarth.com

Welcome to another episode of The DNA Of Purpose Podcast.For those of you who have been following this podcast for quite some time, you would know that I have been on a mission since day one to unpack purpose from every perspective possible, and 87 episodes in I think it is fair to say that I have done exactly that. Nonetheless, there is one perspective that I have left uncharted until today and one of the reasons for that is because only a handful of human beings have had the privilege of seeing themselves and the world from space or more specifically from Saturn.Today, I am feeling incredibly honoured to interview not only a globally renowned planetary scientist but also an extraordinary human who through both trial and transformation has pathed the way for women all over the world to pursue careers in science and technology. She has worked alongside revolutionary scientists such as Carl Sagan, with whom she collaborated on the world-famous Pale Blue Dot image of Earth taken in 1990, and her name is synonymous with the planet Saturn and the travels thereof the Cassini spacecraft from 2004 to 2017. In 2012 she was named one of the 25 most influential people in space by Time magazine, and this is only one of many accolades.Her name is Carolyn Porco and she is an American planetary scientist who is renowned for exploring the outer Solar System, beginning with her imaging work on the Voyager missions to Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in the 1980s. She also led the imaging science team on NASA’s Cassini mission in orbit around Saturn. This was a monumental moment for women in science and one for women of influence. The kind that ignites human progress.Carolyn was also the founder of The Day the Earth Smiled,a first-of-its-kind event held in 2013, during which the Cassini spacecraft slipped into Saturn's shadow and turned to image the planet, seven of its moons, its main rings -- and, in the background, our home planet, Earth, while people the world over celebrated. This image was not only a personal reprise of the original Pale Blue Dot, which she dedicated to her colleague Sagan [https://youtu.be/fzdkzkfGnko], but one that enabled all of humanity to see ourselves through the vastness of space, feel connected to each other and all of life on Earth, and appreciate the significance of our own existence and the place to which we belong.In today's conversation, Carolyn and I traverse through so many layers of understanding the universe from a scientific perspective but also understanding ourselves at a deeper level through the eyes of space. Carolyn is a scientist first, and thus honours her research as sacred, yet at the same time, her insights and wisdom are full of soul. And while it may seem obvious to think a woman who has spent a lifetime observing the wonder of space would be the first to advocate human inhabitants in space, the exact opposite is true. In her words when it comes to Earth, there is no planet B. We must care for our home.So without further delay, I am beyond privileged to introduce you to today's guests.

Wir fangen mit einem Quiz an der direkt in die Geschichte aus der Astronomie übergeht, die diesmal von Florian erzählt wird. Sie handelt von Saturn. Und der Frage wie man aus der Beobachtung seiner Ringe mehr über das Innere des Planeten herausfinden kann. Was überraschenderweise tatsächlich funktioniert und der Welt das wunderbare Wort “Kronoseismologie” beschert hat! Am Ende beantworten wir dann noch die Frage: “Wo beginnt der Himmel?

It's among the biggest questions our species faces: is there intelligent life in the universe, away from our planet? Data has been powering mankind's search for intelligent life in the universe ever since we first gazed up at the heavens, and began to ponder our place in the cosmos. In this episode, Gregg Fisher speaks with Dr. Carolyn Porco, who for decades has been one of the most accomplished and distinguished members of the US space program. Dr. Porco is a Fellow of the California Academy of Sciences, a visiting scholar at UC Berkeley, and the former leader of the Cassini Imaging team. In this episode, Dr. Porco takes Gregg from her humble beginnings in the Bronx, through her remarkable experience looking for signs of life on Saturn's rings, all the way up to the questions she continues to wrestle with, including the meaning of life, which - believe it or not - Dr. Porco claims to have an answer for.

The outspoken planetary scientist who led the Cassini imaging team finally sits down with Mat Kaplan for a revealing, fun conversation. We also talk with astronomer Jay Pasachoff while he watches tiny Mercury crawl across the face of the Sun. Chief scientist Bruce Betts was in the Planetary Society parking lot enjoying the November 11th transit of Mercury. He joins us from there for What’s Up.

Carolyn Porco :We're not sure the surface is sand-like. It could be more like snow made of tar! But there will be large particles made of organic compounds and it's not clear to me what that might do to mechanical mechanisms.

Have you ever pondered that picture of earth as a pale blue dot seen from space? Then you already know something of the work of the space craft Voyager I. In 2012, that same space craft became the first man-made object to leave our solar system and enter interstellar space. Voyager I and its twin Voyager II have continued to gather data from deep space forty years after their launch in 1977. On August 23rd, 2017, PBS aired a documentary–The Farthest–Voyager in Space–that tells the story of these dogged explorers. Two weeks before, on Wednesday, August 9th, the Museum hosted a special preview screening. After which, Hayden Planetarium director Neil deGrasse Tyson sat down with Carolyn Porco, a planetary scientist and Voyager team member. This podcast brings you their conversation.

Where will unambiguous signs of life most likely be found outside Earth? While telescopes squint at impossibly distant (but numerous) exoplanets, increasing numbers of increasingly brilliant robots are probing the wildly exotic potential environments for life nearby in our own Solar System. Which ones are the most promising candidates, and why, and what are the plans to check them out? Is life in the universe a one-off freak, or the norm? If we find just one more instance, we can infer it’s the norm. Planetary scientist Carolyn Porco became most famous as the dynamic leader of the Imaging Team for the Cassini mission to Saturn, which delivered no end of stunning photos of the planet, its gorgeous rings, and its extravagant moons. (Her team discovered seven new ones.)

Neil deGrasse Tyson talks about exploring space with planetary scientist Carolyn Porco, a.k.a. Madame Saturn, who led the Cassini Imaging Science team. Now including 10 minutes of new Cosmic Queries with Neil, Bill Nye and Chuck Nice!

Brian Cox and Robin Ince are joined by comedian Jo Brand, planetary scientist Professor Monica Grady and NASA scientist Dr Carolyn Porco as they discuss some of the most exciting and technically ambitious explorations of our solar system. They'll be looking at the Rosetta mission that has, for the first time, landed a probe on a comet, and the Cassini-Huygens mission which is bringing us extraordinary information about Saturn and its moons, and what these explorations of the far reaches of our solar system might tell us about our own planet.

AstronomyCast 362: Carolyn Porco by Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay

Rosetta After a nail-biting, bumpy, bouncy landing, European Space Agency's Rosetta probe - 'Philae' -lands on the comet 67P. It's already collecting data and beaming back some very impressive images of this dusty, icy space projectile. BBC Space correspondent Jonathan Amos fills us in on the latest news. Thought-controlled genes Brainwaves from human participants activated a light, which in turn switches on specific genes in mice. In this proof of concept study, Professor Martin Fussenegger hopes that one day this technology could be used to control pain, pre-empt epileptic seizures, or in fact communicate with people who have locked in syndrome. It's another example of two very exciting techniques - brain machine interfacing and optogenetics. Arecibo Message Anniversary 40 years ago, on 16 Nov 1974, a message designed to inform intelligent alien civilisations about human existence was beamed into space. Whilst Frank Drake's binary picture message was primarily put together to show the capabilities of the upgraded Arecibo radio telescope in Puerto Rico, it has inspired interest and enthusiasm around the world. Veteran of subsequent space message projects Dr Carolyn Porco joins Adam to talk about how space science has progressed in the interim decades, and what these ventures mean to humankind. Biophonic Life Sound installation "The Sounds of Others: A Biophonic Line", by artist Marcus Coates is currently delighting visitors to Manchester's Museum of Science and Industry. It explores the sounds of animals, from field crickets to humpback whales. By speeding and slowing each sound, his work reveals unimagined connections between species, and unearths common patterns and forms that would normally be beyond the reach of the human ear. The Sounds of Others looks for commonality between the human and non-human worlds, through sound. Marcus Coates, and collaborator wildlife sound-recordist Geoff Sample talk Adam through some of the surprising sounds of nature. Can you tell a pack of children from red deer? Or Marcus from a Lion? And is there a reason for these connections? Producer: Fiona Roberts.

In this lecture, Cassini Imaging Team Leader Carolyn Porco discusses the insights the spacecraft gave us into the nature of our planetary system, and Saturn itself. This lecture took place at the Hayden Planetarium on October 20, 2014, and was hosted by Neil DeGrasse Tyson, the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium.

Airport security has been tightened recently. Passengers must be able to switch on their electronic devices to prove they don't contain explosives. Inside Science asks about the science behind spotting a potential terrorist. Adam asks whether behavioural profiling works. Can trained security staff tell the difference between a nervous traveller and a potential terrorist? Light and colour in art Pigments and paint evolved over time, and these changes are one focus of the 'Making Colour' exhibition at the National Gallery. Different paints fade and degrade in different ways; often the patina of age is what appeals when looking at art, so how do you decide which hue to use when restoring paintings? Another intriguing issue is how you light a painting. The National Gallery is moving away from tungsten lighting, to more modern, tuneable LED lights. How does this affect the way visitors view the art? An interactive experiment is helping them to unpick light perception. Hadrian's Wall A listener asks how did the Romans knew where to build the great defensive wall. We get the answer from Professor Ian Haynes, an archaeologist at Newcastle University, who reveals that the Romans were obsessed with measuring. Cassini mission to Saturn Cassini-Huygens is an unmanned spacecraft sent to the planet Saturn. The NASA-ESA-ASI robotic spacecraft has been orbiting and studying the planet and its many natural satellites for 10 years. Adam talks to the mission's leader of the imaging science team, Carolyn Porco, about how successful it's been. And he offers her a blank cheque to choose her next mission. Producer: Fiona Roberts.

We’ve saved the best for last as Carolyn tells Neil about photographing Earth in the Pale Blue Dot and The Day the Earth Smiled and her involvement in Star Trek and Contact.

Neil deGrasse Tyson talks about exploring space with planetary scientist Carolyn Porco, aka Madame Saturn, leader of the Cassini Imaging Science team.

Dr. Carolyn C. Porco is an American planetary scientist known for her work on the Voyager missions to Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune in the 1980s.  She leads the imaging scientist team on the Cassini mission currently in orbit around Saturn.  She’s also involved with the New Horizons mission launched to Pluto.  She has authored more than 100 scientific papers.  She has given two popular Ted Talks lectures.  She has won numerous awards, including the Carl Sagan Medal presented by the American Astronomical Society for Excellence in the Communication of Science to the Public, she was named one of the 25 most influential people in space by Time magazine in 2012, and she was recently elected to be a laureate of the International Academy of Humanism.On this podcast, we talk with Dr. Porco about her work, about the exploration of our solar system and beyond, about science versus anti-science, and about this new age of discovery that has opened windows into the vast reaches of space.CAROLYN PORCO WEBSITE:  http://carolynporco.comTwitter: @carolynporcoFacebook: carolynporco CICLOPS WEBSITE:  http://www.ciclops.orgTHE DAY THE EARTH SMILED:  http://www.thedaytheearthsmiled.com 

On Valentine's Day 1990, from more than four billion miles away, the Voyager 1 spacecraft snapped our photo. From that distance, there wasn't much to see; the resulting shot simply showed several light beams with a tiny speck in one of them. Earth.But that didn't stop the late celebrity astronomer Carl Sagan from writing rapturously about the meaning of this image, which he famously dubbed the "Pale Blue Dot." "To me," Sagan wrote of the picture, "it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known."Sagan infused the "Pale Blue Dot" with significance, but the truth is that, thanks in part to the difficulty of the shot, it was never a very good image. Enter planetary scientist Carolyn Porco, one of Sagan's scientific disciples and head of imaging science for the Cassini spacecraft, which is currently in orbit around Saturn and sending us back stunning images on a regular basis. "From day one," explains Porco, in this week’s episode, "I had it in my mind that I wanted to do that picture, only better. I wanted to make it beautiful."In our interview with Porco, she talks about the new Pale Blue Dot image she unveiled last month—appropriately enough, at a celebration for Sagan, dedicating his papers to the Library of Congress; and more broadly, why seeing Earth from space matters.This episode also features a discussion of the psychology of New Years' Eve: When do New Years' resolutions to lose weight actually work, and when do they fail? And what does marking time through significant dates (birthdays, anniversaries, and years' ends) do to the identities that we create for ourselves? Chris and Indre discuss the latest research on both topics.Subscribe:itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/inquiring-minds/id711675943feeds.feedburner.com/inquiring-minds

On this special two-part episode of Talking Space, we begin by discussing last week's Soyuz launch before devling into the weekend-long event in Tucson, AZ. The event involved vendors and artists who specialize in space, as well as an impressive panel of astronauts which spanned every single American manned space flight program from Mercury to shuttle. On top of the astronauts were many panels and discussions. You'll hear bits from the talks by Dr. Carolyn Porco famous for working on Cassini and Prof. Brian Cox. We then jump to the Apollo astroanuts panel and hear their views on where we are and where we should be going in space. Tune in next week for two of the best panels of the show: the panel on Mars and on asteroids, which includes thoughts from members of the private sector. NOTE: This show was recorded on the week of May 27th, however due to technical difficulties, it was released this week, so some news is out of date.
