Susan, Paul, and Charon spend the night following the three bombers along a power line cut that runs north to the city of Claremont, NH. Charon has kept pace with them but does not want to overtake them. His plan is to let them bed down for the day and set up an ambush a bit farther ahead — catch them as they resume their travels in the evening. Susan still has misgivings about what they will do with the bombers when they catch them. Show Mic you are enjoying this story.

A Talk by Dr. Oliver White (SETI Institute)May 28, 2025Ten years ago, the New Horizons spacecraft flew by the Pluto system and revealed an unexpectedly diverse range of landscapes on that dwarf planet and its largest moon Charon -- implying much more complex geological histories for these distant worlds than anyone expected. Dr. White leads a vivid tour of their often bizarre terrains, some of which are still evolving, and explains what processes scientists think molded them into their present appearances. After a brief stop at Pluto's four small moons, Dr. White extends the tour 2 billion km farther out into space, to show us Arrokoth, the tiny "planetesimal" that New Horizons flew past three and a half years after visiting Pluto.  It is the most primitive object in the Solar System ever visited by a spacecraft.

Susan, Charon, and Paul arrive at Basin Farms, near Bellows Falls. The fill in the farmer who is a Coalition operative of their plans to ambush the bombers. Sneaking through Bellows Falls by night, they get ready to cross the river but are stopped by the arrival of the bombers and their boss. Susan sees them receive the explosives and their instructions. The younger bombers worry about venturing into "cannibal country." Enjoying this Novelette? Help keep the stories coming by keeping Mic awake and at the keyboard.

Charon figures to dispatch the three would-be thieves but Susan talks him out of it. She thinks they're not hardened criminals but desperately starving. The men tell of being shut out by the state for having offended some low-level officials. Susan hatches a plan to get the men's identity papers restored. Her plan involves some melodramatics, but it seems to work. Show Mic you are enjoying this story. Right after you read this, go to  Buy Me A Coffee and buy him a cup of virtual coffee.

In an effort to stop the men who plan to hike into New Hampshire and blow up a railroad bridge, Susan, Paul, and Charon visit Doug. This, so Charon can send a coded message back to his handlers in the Coalition. They reply told of an operative at a farm near Bellows Falls. Now, the three have to concoct a plausible reason for them to be traveling all the way up there (10 hours by horse and wagon). There will be several checkpoints.

Susan sneaks out of Boyd's Farm in the dark of night. She meets Charon in the woods outside of the little Deerfield airport. They make their way to the plane without being detected. Charon plants his explosive under the wing, but people start coming from the house. He has to cut the fuse very short and run for cover. The plane explodes just as the people arrive. They put out the subsequent fires quickly. There was no detonation of the Feds' explosive cargo. It was not aboard the plane yet. The airport boss tells the pilot and two helpers that they will have to carry the explosive package in on foot and blow up a bridge themselves. BE the person people ask, "And then what happens?"

Sis, this episode was a whole masterclass in confidence—no more shrinking, no more playing small! We tackled the real, raw truth about what it takes to own your space, amplify your voice, and walk into any room like you were born to be there—because you WERE.Our guest, Charon Richardson, CEO & Creative Visionary of G'wan by Charon, brought the fire! She dropped gems on how fashion is more than just clothes—it's a statement, a declaration, a reminder that you deserve to take up space. Charon shared her journey of embracing boldness, overcoming doubt, and turning her passion into a thriving movement that empowers women to live unapologetically.We talked about confidence killers, how to unlearn the lies that keep us small, and the daily mindset shifts that help you show up as the most powerful version of yourself. This episode was for every woman who's ever second-guessed her worth—spoiler alert: you are THAT woman. Period.

Tout un Art ! est une série inédite à l'occasion de la Journée mondiale de la Baleine, le 19 février.À l'instar des Maoris (épisode 8/12) et des Inuits (épisode 9/12), d'autres peuples ont des relations privilégiées avec les baleines.Au Vietnam, vous pouvez devenir le fils d'une baleine ! En effet, celui qui trouve une baleine échouée sur le rivage, surnommé “l'inventeur” de cette baleine, est considéré comme son fils et porte le deuil de l'animal lors de cérémonies destinées à honorer son esprit.Si les Vietnamiens vouent un culte  à la baleine, c'est qu'ils la considèrent comme un animal protecteur : elle s'appuie sur les bateaux dans la tempête pour les empêcher de chavirer. On est loin de la lutte acharnée entre l'homme et le cétacé comme dans Moby Dick  (cf épisode 6/12) !Les baleines sont aussi pour les Vietnamiens des animaux … psychopompes. En grec, psycho,  c'est “l'âme” et pompe, c'est “le guide”. La baleine, c'est donc le Charon de l'océan, un passeur qui guide les hommes jusqu'au monde des morts. L'eau, dans l'Antiquité avec le Styx, mais aussi dans l'imaginaire du Moyen-Âge, est souvent considérée comme la frontière entre le royaume des vivants et celui des morts.Il existe d'autres animaux psychopompes sur Terre, comme le vautour dans l'Himalaya … Certains peuples leur confient leurs morts sur des rochers plats.Ce lien privilégié entre l'homme et la créature marine, dans notre culture occidentale, existe plutôt avec le dauphin qu'avec la baleine. Certains dauphins “ambassadeurs” quittent ainsi leur groupe pour communiquer et jouer avec les hommes.______  La série "Tout un Art !" 12x10') raconte le Vivant dans la (pop) culture, l'Art et l'Histoire, au-delà des aspects biologiques et comportementaux. Et aussi de connecter deux mondes qui se nourrissent l'un l'autre. Oscar Wilde ne disait-il pas que "la nature imite l'art" ?Il est temps que chacun.e se cultive, soigne et réenchante son lien avec nos colocataires non-humains et ressente le besoin de faire ce qu'il peut, ce qu'il doit.Après tout, chaque espèce n'est-elle pas aussi précieuse qu'une cathédrale Notre Dame, qu'une Joconde ? _______Cette émission a été conçue et préparée par deux grands curieux. Sylvia Roustant est professeure, agrégée de lettres et créatrice du site Le secret derrière le tableau.Marc Mortelmans est créateur de podcasts, conférencier et auteur d'En finir avec les idées fausses sur le monde Vivant (Éditions de l'atelier 2024) et de Nomen, l'origine des noms des espèces (Ulmer 2024). contact@baleinesousgravillon.com.Hébergé par Ausha.

Susan and Paul prepare a night landing spot for the Coalition operative. He arrives in a not-quite-dignified landing. It's Charon. They gather up his paraglider gear and return to Paul's house. While Charon urges them to destroy the glider gear so it can't be discovered, Susan feels the gear is too valuable as a resource. She and Paul must figure out ways to hide the gear.   Enjoying Susan's Raid? Show your support by buying a virtual coffee on Buy Me A Coffee.

New types of snake-bite anti-venoms are designed by AI. Also, how much meat did human ancestors eat? How the Baltic Nord Stream gas pipeline rupture of 2022 was the biggest single release of methane ever caused by humans, and that Pluto met Charon, not with a bang, but more of a kiss.Using a high precision technique for spotting different isotopes of Nitrogen, Tina Lüdecke of the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry has concluded that a group of early hominin Australopithecus living in South Africa were predominantly vegetarian, putting the date that human ancestors started eating meat (and thence growing bigger brains) to more recently. The technique, she thinks, can enlighten prehistoric food webs and ecologies from millions of years ago.Last year's Nobel prizes showed the potential new techniques of AI to design synthetic proteins. Timothy P Jenkins and colleagues decided to try designing treatments for snakebite venoms, with remarkable apparent success. It could save many thousands of lives a year.Since the September 2022 explosions at the Nord Stream gas pipeline in the Baltic sea, many different analyses of how much methane was released have provided a variety of estimates. This week, scientists at the UNEP International Methane emissions observatory – including Stephen Harris - published a study estimating it to be a little under half a million tonnes, making it by far the single biggest human caused release of this most dangerous greenhouse gas. Yet, they say, even that is a tiny fraction of what is released overall around the world every year. And Finally, a new analysis of the original formation of the Pluto-Charon binary Dwarf Planetary system suggests they – and possibly many other Kuiper belt pairing – were born of a gentle astronomical dance and a peck on the cheek, rather than the catastrophic collision we associate with the earth-moon's fiery first date. And it may have lasted just a matter of days, according to author Adeene Denton of the University of Arizona.Presenter: Roland Pease Producer: Alex Mansfield Production Coordinator: Jana Bennett-Holesworth(Photo: Gorilla feeding.

Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, orbit each other with gazes lovingly fixed on each other, held in place by a romantic tidal attraction. But Charon's large size has always been difficult to explain. New simulations show that their love affair may have started at the beginning with a "Kiss and Capture" collision, much gentler than the devasting impact that formed our own Moon. Hear all about that, Centaurs, space news, space trivia, and a new way to explain away Dark Energy with your friendly neighborhood astroquarks.

SpaceTime Series 28 Episode 06Formation of Pluto-Charon Binary SystemA new study reveals that the formation of the Pluto-Charon dwarf planet binary system may mirror that of the Earth-Moon system. The research, published in Nature Geoscience, suggests that both systems feature a secondary body significantly large in comparison to the primary, unlike other moons in our solar system. The findings could explain Pluto's active geology and potential subsurface ocean, highlighting the significance of giant impacts in shaping planetary bodies.BepiColombo's Final Mercury FlybyThe BepiColombo spacecraft has completed its final close flyby of Mercury, passing just 295 kilometres above the planet's surface. This manoeuvre marks the last gravity assist required for the joint ESA and JAXA mission before it enters Mercury's orbit in late 2026. The mission aims to study Mercury's magnetic field, surface composition, and interaction with the solar wind, enhancing our understanding of planets close to their host stars.Astronomy Highlights for 20252025 promises exciting astronomical events, with the Sun's solar cycle nearing its peak.

Billions of years ago, in the frigid outer reaches of our solar system, two icy worlds collided. Rather than destroying each other in a cosmic catastrophe, they spun together like a celestial snowman, finally separating while remaining forever linked in orbit. This is how Pluto and its largest moon, Charon, originated, according to a new University of Arizona study that challenges decades of scientific assumptions. The formation of Pluto and its largest moon A study led by Adeene Denton, a NASA postdoctoral fellow who conducted the research at the U of A Lunar and Planetary Laboratory, has revealed this unexpected "kiss and capture" mechanism, which could help scientists better understand how planetary bodies form and evolve. By considering something planetary scientists had overlooked over decades - the structural strength of cold, icy worlds - researchers have discovered an entirely new type of cosmic collision. The findings were published in the journal Nature Geoscience. For decades, scientists have theorized that Pluto's unusually large moon Charon formed through a process similar to Earth's moon - a massive collision followed by the stretching and deformation of fluid-like bodies, Denton said. This model worked well for the Earth-moon system, where the intense heat and larger masses involved meant the colliding bodies behaved more like fluids. However, when applied to the smaller, colder Pluto-Charon system, this approach overlooked a crucial factor: the structural integrity of rock and ice. "Pluto and Charon are different - they're smaller, colder and made primarily of rock and ice. When we accounted for the actual strength of these materials, we discovered something completely unexpected," Denton said. Using advanced impact simulations on the U of A's high-performance computing cluster, the research team found that instead of stretching like silly putty during the collision, Pluto and the proto-Charon actually became temporarily stuck together, rotating as a single snowman-shaped object before separating into the binary system we observe today. A binary system occurs when two celestial bodies orbit around a common center of mass, much like two figure skaters spinning while holding hands. "Most planetary collision scenarios are classified as 'hit and run' or 'graze and merge.' What we've discovered is something entirely different - a 'kiss and capture' scenario where the bodies collide, stick together briefly and then separate while remaining gravitationally bound," said Denton. "The compelling thing about this study, is that the model parameters that work to capture Charon, end up putting it in the right orbit. You get two things right for the price of one," said senior study author Erik Asphaug, a professor in the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory. The study also suggests that both Pluto and Charon remained largely intact during their collision, with much of their original composition preserved. This challenges previous models that suggested extensive deformation and mixing during the impact, Denton said. Additionally, the collision process, including tidal friction as the bodies separated, deposited considerable internal heat into both bodies, which may provide a mechanism for Pluto to develop a subsurface ocean without requiring formation in the more radioactive very early solar system - a timing constraint that has troubled planetary scientists. The research team is already planning follow-up studies to explore several key areas. The team wants to investigate how tidal forces influenced Pluto and Charon's early evolution when they were much closer together, analyze how this formation scenario aligns with Pluto's current geological features, and examine whether similar processes could explain the formation of other binary systems. "We're particularly interested in understanding how this initial configuration affects Pluto's geological evolution," Denton said. "The heat from the impact and subsequent tidal forces cou...

If you were in elementary school before 2006, there's a good chance you had to memorize the order of the 9 planets in our solar system; Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, URinus—also pronounced UrANUS, and finally Neptune, and Pluto. Now, if you're currently in elementary school, you might be saying, "Wait, there were nine planets?” So, what happened to Pluto? It's not like it's gone anywhere. It's still out there on the edge of the solar system, as cold and far away as ever, so what changed?

We know way more about space than we did one hundred years ago. -From the age of Galileo to the nineteenth century, planet referred to any object orbiting the Sun. So astronomers kept finding countless planets. -We know that Pluto is only one 459th the size of planet Earth, making it smaller than the moon and only about twice the size of the former planet Ceres. Charon may be smaller than Pluto, but not that much smaller. One half the diameter might seem like a big difference, but not compared to the differences in size between the other planets and their moons. -While Eris is slightly smaller than Pluto, initial measurements placed it as somewhat more massive. This added one more strike against Pluto's status as a planet. -First, a planet must orbit the Sun. Number two is that the object must be a sphere, or at least nearly so. Pluto checks the first two boxes but runs into trouble with number three, which says a planet must have "cleared the neighborhood" around it. -Scientists who disagree with the IAU's ruling and want to call Pluto a planet once more propose that any object with enough mass to maintain a spherical, or nearly spherical, shape would qualify as a planet.

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 123*Discovery of a New Region within the Earth's CoreScientists have uncovered a doughnut-shaped region within Earth's molten liquid outer core, located at low latitudes parallel to the equator. This torus-like zone was detected due to seismic waves travelling slower through this area compared to the rest of the liquid outer core. The discovery, published in Science Advances, suggests that this region could be several hundred kilometres thick and contains a high concentration of light chemical elements, which may be affecting the seismic wave speeds. The findings provide new insights into the Earth's magnetic field and its potential future changes.*Fresh Questions about the True Origins of the Earth's MoonA new hypothesis challenges the widely accepted giant impact theory of the Moon's formation. The study proposes that the Moon was captured during a close encounter between the young Earth and a separate terrestrial binary planetary system. This theory could explain the Moon's current orbital plane, more aligned with the sun's ecliptic than Earth's equator. The study opens the door to further exploration of the Moon's origins, especially considering its chemical similarities to Earth.*New Study Reveals More Secrets about Pluto's Binary Partner, CharonNASA's Webb Space Telescope has revealed that Charon, Pluto's binary partner, has significant reserves of carbon dioxide and hydrogen peroxide on its surface. The carbon dioxide ice forms a thin veneer over a water ice-rich subsurface. The study, published in Nature Communications, suggests that the carbon dioxide was likely stored beneath the surface until exposed by impacts, while hydrogen peroxide results from radiation breaking apart water ice. These findings add to the understanding of Charon's chemical composition and its geological history.00:00:00 - This is spacetime series 27, episode 123 for broadcast on 11 October 202400:00:46 - Scientists have detected a new doughnut shaped region within the Earth's molten liquid core00:12:31 - A new study has come up with a different hypothesis to explain the origin of the moon00:17:46 - NASA's Webb Space Telescope reveals vast reserves of carbon dioxide on Pluto's surface00:21:19 - People with type two diabetes who sleep short may develop microvascular disease00:24:23 - Movie producers claim they've accidentally captured footage of a lake monster00:27:23 - Spacetime is available every Monday, Wednesday and Friday through various podcasting platformswww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com

We covered the big commercial hit album "Brothers In Arms" back in episode 154, but many afficianados of Dire Straits consider their finest work to be the album that preceeded this one.  Love Over Gold is their fourth studio album, released in late September 1982 and on the charts in June 1983.  For this album, prime mover and lead vocalist Mark Knopfler, bassist John Illsley, and percussionist Pick Withers are joined by new members Hal Lindes on guitars and Alan Clark on keyboards.  The songs on this album are longer than your standard single, particularly the majestic 14-minute "Telegraph Road."  Despite their length, "Private Investigations" was released as a single in the UK and reached number 2on the charts.  The shortest song, "Industrial Disease" (still clocking in at 5:50) was released as a single in the US.  It would reach number 75 on the Billboard Hot 100, but would be a staple of rock radio stations at the time.A number of songs were written and recorded during the "Love Over Gold" sessions, but subsequently discarded from album release.  Amongst these was the song "Private Dancer," which was instead provided to Tina Turner for her comeback album of the same name.   Turner would take this song to number 7 on the US charts, and see her career reinvigorated by the success of her "Private Dancer" album."Love Over Gold" was a number 1 album on a number of charts, including Australia, Austria, and the UK, and reached number 19 on the US Billboard 200 albums chart.Rob brings us this outstanding, deep, and thought-provoking album for this week's podcast.Telegraph RoadThis lengthy masterpiece was inspired while Knopfler was riding in his tour bus down the 70-mile road of the same name.  The song narrarates the development and history along the road as the decades roll past.  It is easy to describe this song as prog rock, but it also contains one of the best guitar solo riffs you will hear. Industrial DiseaseGoodness me, goodness me!  We have to highlight the US single from the album.  The title comes from a term for work-related illness, and the term in this song references both individual work illness and the decline of British industry in general.  The reference to Dr. Parkinson is a British professor and satirist who is famous for the phrase "work expands to fill the time available for its completion." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Overture to the Marriage of Figaro by Mozart (from the motion picture “Trading Places”)Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd star in this comedy about a yuppie and a homeless man who are forced to trade places as the result of a bet by two rich stock brokers.   STAFF PICKS:Murder By Numbers by The PoliceBruce initiates the staff picks with a dark song about becoming a serial killer.  This Police song appears on the cassette and CD version of the album "Synchronicity," but was left off the vinyl due to lack of space.  It was written by Sting and Andy Summers, the only collaborative song on the album, and was recorded in a single take.  Rock of Ages by Def LeppardLynch brings us a huge song from Def Leppard's "Pyromania" album.  Producer Mutt Lange counts off the nonsensical "Gunter Glieben Glauten Globen," to open the song, and the lyrics form an anthem suitable for arena show openers.  Joan Jett's "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" was an inspiration to the creation of this anthem.Don't Pay the Ferryman by Chris deBurghWayne's staff pick takes a fantasy approach to the story of Charon and the crossing of the river Styx, advising not to pay until the trip is done.  Irish artist Chris deBurgh broke into the US top 40 with this song, peaking at number 34.  Lines from Shakespeare's play "The Tempest" can be heard in the bridge to the song.The Walls came Down by The Call Rob finishes the staff picks with a song that is inspired by the Biblical tale of the fall of Jericho.  Lead singer Michael Been would pull biblical references into his lyrics, including this song.  The Call formed in 1980 in California, and blended rock, New Wave, and post-Punk.  U2 and Simple Minds both consider The Call an influence in their music. COMEDY TRACK:My Bologna by "Weird Al" YankovicWe close out with Weird Al's meaty take on "My Sharona by" the Knack.
