NASA: DAMAGED CYGNUS. BOB ZIMMERMAN BEHINDTHEBLACK.COM 1953

If you've ever wondered what the view from the International Space Station might look like in real-time, this is your episode. Or if you just want to know more about who's up there and what's going on at the ISS on a particular day, this is it. Liam Kennedy, the one and only Space TV Director, is with us. Liam has been working to bring content and video from the ISS down to earth for over a decade, and it's all come together just this year! Liam invented ISS Above, a Raspberry Pi-driven system that highlights key information about the space station in real-time. Join us for this special look at the view from on high! Headlines: NASA is cutting $420 million in contracts, as confirmed by NASA press secretary Bethany Stevens. Boeing Starliner's next crewed launch was delayed to late 2025 / early 2026 due to ongoing helium leaks and thruster issues. Northrop Grumman's Cygnus cargo mission (CRS-22) was canceled after the spacecraft was damaged during shipping; it will be rescheduled to CRS-23 in the fall. Historic FRAM 2 mission launching March 31 - first human spaceflight over Earth's poles, financed by Maltese cryptocurrency entrepreneur Chun Wang. The Blue Origin launch date with Katy Perry, the first all-female mission since Valentina Tereshkova's solo flight, is set for April 14. A partial solar eclipse will be visible over northern US and Canada on March 29. Main Topic - Interview with Liam Kennedy Liam Kennedy's space journey began at age 6, watching the Apollo 11 moon landing, leading to becoming president of Orange County Astronomers and developing ways for the public to experience the Overview Effect. ISS Above is a Raspberry Pi device created in 2013 that tracks the ISS and lights up when it passes overhead, and is now in 5,000 locations worldwide. Kennedy partnered with SEN, founded by Charles Black, to create high-quality 4K cameras for the ISS after NASA's HDEV camera system stopped transmitting in 2019. SEN provides free live streaming of Earth from space via YouTube and SEN.com, generating revenue through advertising and clip licensing. The Space TV camera system includes six cameras on the Columbus module of the ISS, showcasing docking ports, Earth views, and the horizon. Space TV offers dramatically higher quality than NASA's existing cameras and captured stunning 4K footage of Boeing Starliner's undocking and Crew Dragon flights. SEN plans to expand with more cameras and locations, including potential deployment on future commercial space stations and lunar missions. Kennedy discusses the "Overview Effect" - how seeing Earth from space creates a transformative perspective that inspires action on Earth. The ISS Above Experience will be featured at the Space Symposium to celebrate the 25th anniversary of continuous human presence on the ISS.

Star clusters line up in the evening sky at this time of year like pearls on a necklace. As the sky gets nice and dark, they climb straight up the northeastern sky. They stretch from the bright star Capella, which is quite low; up through the “W” of Cassiopeia; then to Cygnus, the tail of the swan, high overhead. There’s a good line of clusters because that path outlines the Milky Way – the subtle glow of the disk of our home galaxy. Most of the clusters are classified as “open.” All of the stars in such a cluster were born together, from a giant cloud of gas and dust. But as the clusters orbit the center of the Milky Way, they’re slowly pulled apart. So over time, all the stars in such a cluster go their own way. Perhaps the highlight of this path is the Double Cluster – two clusters in Perseus, just below Cassiopeia. Under dark skies, they’re visible to the unaided eye as a faint cloud of light. Individually, the clusters are known as NGC 869 and 884. They’re about 7500 light-years away. Combined, their stars and gas add up to about 20 thousand times the mass of the Sun. And they’re quite young as stars go – about 14 million years. At that tender age, the clusters haven’t had time to fall apart. And with their great mass, they’re likely to hold together longer than most clusters – perhaps several hundred million years. Tomorrow: the crescent Moon and the “evening star.” Script by Damond Benningfield

If you have sharp eyes or good binoculars, you can sometimes see double in the night sky – two stars that are quite close together. In some cases, the stars really are close – they can be bound to each other by gravity, forming a binary. In other cases, though, it’s just a coincidence. The stars are unrelated, but they just happen to line up in the same direction. These stars are known as optical doubles. And some of them are beautiful sights – especially when viewed through a telescope. The two members can show different colors, providing a nice contrast. One of the best-known examples is Albireo. It marks the head of Cygnus, the swan, and it’s high overhead at nightfall. A small telescope reveals one blue star and one gold star. The best measurements to date indicate that the stars are about 30 light-years apart. An example that’s visible to the eye alone is Algedi, in Capricornus. It’s due south at nightfall. The eye can just make it out as two separate points of light. The stars are hundreds of light-years apart. Sometimes, it’s hard to tell if a double star is a binary or not. The best example is Mizar and Alcor, in the handle of the Big Dipper. It’s fairly easy to see the stars as two points of light. They actually move through space together, so they probably were born together. But astronomers aren’t sure if they’re a true binary – or just two related stars moving through space on their own.

In this Adventure in Etymology we’re looking into the origins of the word swan. A swan [swɒn/swɑn] is: Any of various species of large, long-necked waterfowl, of genus Cygnus (bird family: Anatidae), most of which have white plumage. One whose grace etc. suggests a swan. It comes from Middle English swan [swan] (swan, swan meat), […]

My special guest is Andrew Collins where to discuss his book The Cygnus Key: The Denisovan Legacy, Göbekli Tepe, and the Birth of Egypt.New evidence showing that the earliest origins of human culture, religion, and technology derive from the lost world of the Denisovans • Explains how Göbekli Tepe and the Giza pyramids are aligned with the constellation of Cygnus and show evidence of enhanced sound-acoustic technology • Traces the origins of Göbekli Tepe and the Giza pyramids to the Denisovans, a previously unknown human population remembered in myth as a race of giants • Shows how the ancient belief in Cygnus as the origin point for the human soul is as much as 45,000 years old and originally came from southern Siberia Built at the end of the last ice age around 9600 BCE, Göbekli Tepe in southeast Turkey was designed to align with the constellation of the celestial swan, Cygnus--a fact confirmed by the discovery at the site of a tiny bone plaque carved with the three key stars of Cygnus. Remarkably, the three main pyramids at Giza in Egypt, including the Great Pyramid, align with the same three stars. But where did this ancient veneration of Cygnus come from? Showing that Cygnus was once seen as a portal to the sky-world, Andrew Collins reveals how, at both sites, the attention toward this star group is linked with sound acoustics and the use of musical intervals “discovered” thousands of years later by the Greek mathematician Pythagoras. Collins traces these ideas as well as early advances in human technology and cosmology back to the Altai-Baikal region of Russian Siberia, where the cult of the swan flourished as much as 20,000 years ago. He shows how these concepts, including a complex numeric system based on long-term eclipse cycles, are derived from an extinct human population known as the Denisovans. Not only were they of exceptional size--the ancient giants of myth--but archaeological discoveries show that this previously unrecognized human population achieved an advanced level of culture, including the use of high-speed drilling techniques and the creation of musical instruments. The author explains how the stars of Cygnus coincided with the turning point of the heavens at the moment the Denisovan legacy was handed to the first human societies in southern Siberia 45,000 years ago, catalyzing beliefs in swan ancestry and an understanding of Cygnus as the source of cosmic creation. It also led to powerful ideas involving the Milky Way's Dark Rift, viewed as the Path of Souls and the sky-road shamans travel to reach the sky-world. He explores how their sound technology and ancient cosmologies were carried into the West, flowering first at Göbekli Tepe and then later in Egypt's Nile Valley. Collins shows how the ancient belief in Cygnus as the source of creation can also be found in many other cultures around the world, further confirming the role played by the Denisovan legacy in the genesis of human civilization.Follow Our Other ShowsFollow UFO WitnessesFollow Crime Watch WeeklyFollow Paranormal FearsFollow Seven: Disturbing Chronicle StoriesJoin our Patreon for ad-free listening and more bonus content.Follow us on Instagram @mysteriousradioFollow us on TikTok mysteriousradioTikTok Follow us on Twitter @mysteriousradio Follow us on Pinterest pinterest.com/mysteriousradio Like us on Facebook Facebook.com/mysteriousradio

A giant stellar nursery lies just 4500 light-years away. But the complex of brilliant stars and star-making materials is hidden – veiled by clouds of dust. Cygnus X spans more than 600 light-years. It contains enough material to give birth to millions of stars as massive as the Sun. And it’s already spawned several thousand stars that are many times as massive as the Sun, and thousands of times brighter. Astronomers study the region at wavelengths that shine through the dust. They reveal a complex web of ribbons, bubbles, rings, and pillars. They form several interlinked regions of starbirth. A cluster of massive newborn stars is near the middle of the complex. They produce radiation and powerful “winds” that push and erode the surrounding gas and dust. That can stop the process of star formation. But it can also trigger the birth of new stars as it squeezes the gas and dust. Especially heavy stars blow big bubbles in the gas. They also shape dense regions into pillars that can span dozens of light-years. Cygnus X probably has been forming stars for the past 10 million years or so. But it’s just getting started – it’s likely to form tens of thousands more stars. Cygnus X is in Cygnus, the swan, which is high in the east at nightfall. The complex is hidden behind dark clouds that run from the bright star Deneb, the swan’s tail, to Sadr, at the intersection of its long body and graceful wings. Script by Damond Benningfield

Under a dark sky, the Milky Way is impressive – a milky band of light that outlines the disk of our home galaxy. But the band isn’t smooth. It’s lumpy, with some parts much wider and brighter than others. And a dark lane runs down its middle, bisecting the Milky Way into two bands. It, too, is lumpy. That dark lane is known as the Great Rift, and it looks almost empty – as though a cosmic dragon has swallowed most of the stars. Instead, the darkness has simply swallowed the light of the stars behind it. That’s because the dark lane is made of giant clouds of dust. They block the visible light of the stars inside and behind them, just as a dark cloud here on Earth can block the Sun from view. Perhaps the most famous cloud is the Coalsack, an especially big “hole” in the Milky Way. It’s in the Southern Cross, which is too far south to see from the continental United States. The Coalsack is about 600 light-years from Earth, and spans about 60 or 70 light-years. There’s also the Northern Coalsack. It’s just about as big as the southern version, although it’s not quite as dark or well-defined. Still, there’s a definite gap in the stars there. It’s in Cygnus. As night falls now, it’s to the right of Deneb, the bright star that marks the swan’s tail. The Northern Coalsack veils an especially bright region behind it – one of the biggest stellar nurseries in our part of the galaxy. More about that tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

Winners of the annual Reach for the Stars astrophotography competition announced A massive star nearing the end of its life, a moonrise above Bray Head, the Milky Way from a cave and the Northern Lights, are among the 2024 winning images in the 'Reach for the Stars' astrophotography competition, run by the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies. Taking the winning prize in the 'Back on Earth - Landscape' category was an image of May's spectacular aurora borealis over Fanad Head Lighthouse in Donegal. The image, 'Fanad Head - Aurora 2024', was taken by Patryk Sadowski from Derry City. Tom O'Donoghue, from Malahide in Dublin, was the winner of the 'Back on Earth - Landmark' category. The winning image 'Sentinel' captures the Baltimore Beacon standing watch as the Milky Way rises over the ocean. Commenting on the winning images in the 'Back on Earth' categories, Professor Peter Gallagher, Head of Astrophysics at DIAS and a member of the judging panel for 'Reach for the Stars', said: "The photographer took advantage of the opportunity to shoot Fanad Head Lighthouse from a different perspective, and it paid off. Having seen lots of aurora shots this year, this one really stood out to us for the creativity and imagination. Tom O'Donoghue's 'Sentinel' shows how even the most familiar landmarks can still be captured in new ways. The judging panel loved how the Milky Way provided a stunning backdrop for the lone sentinel." Martin McCormack, from Glasnevin, Dublin claimed first prize in the 'Out of this World - Deep Sky' category. The winning image 'The Jewels of the Swan' captures the Crescent Nebula, a 25 light-year-wide emission nebula in the constellation Cygnus. Featured in the image is a star at the centre of the nebula shedding its outer layers into space resulting in a dense shell of scorching hot material giving the nebula its shape. The winner in the 'Out of this World - Planetary' category with his image of the moon rising over Bray Head was Anthony Lynch from Stoneybatter, Dublin. Capturing this image involved a last-minute 200-yard dash down the beach for Anthony to ensure he had the shot lined up perfectly. Anthony also scooped the top prize in the Public Choice category. His image 'Cave Man' which captured the Milky Way from a cave at Goat Island, Ardmore, received the most votes in the online public vote. This year over 5,000 people cast their votes online for their favourite image. Prof. Gallagher continued, "Although the Crescent Nebula is a bright one, it can be notoriously difficult to capture. This photographer really put in the hours and studied their craft to create a beautiful image that is truly captivating. The moon rising over Bray Head is another example of a familiar landmark being captured in a new and creative way. We loved the simplicity of this image showcasing the journey the moon takes through our sky." The inaugural 'Night Sky in Your Hand' category was won by Seanie Morris, from Blueball, Co.Offaly, with his image 'Sam and Lucy's first BIG aurora', which shows the silhouettes of his children against the backdrop of May's spectacular aurora display. The images in this category had to be taken on a smartphone and without telescopes, of an astronomical scene. Judges' Feedback The winners were selected by a judging panel following a meticulous review process of over 200 entries. In addition to Prof. Peter Gallagher, the judging panel included Brenda Fitzsimons, former Picture Editor, The Irish Times; Michael McCreary, President, Irish Astronomical Society; and Niamh Breathnach, Director, Alice Public Relations. Commenting on the competition, Michael McCreary, President of the Irish Astronomical Society and member of the judging panel, said: "This is my second year to be involved in the judging process, and I continue to be amazed by what people are capturing in our night sky. The perseverance and attention to detail of all the entrants is evident in the images submitted to the competition this year - w...

About 10,000 years ago, a massive star in Cygnus, the swan, blew itself to bits. For a few days or weeks, it blazed as the brightest object in the night sky other than the Moon – bright enough to see even during the day. Today, its glowing remains are still visible – a colorful bubble that’s more than a hundred light-years across and growing. The bubble is known as the Cygnus Loop. It’s a supernova remnant – the debris from a star that was about 20 times the mass of the Sun. After a short but brilliant life, the star could no longer produce nuclear energy in its core. The core collapsed, and the star’s outer layers exploded at a few percent of the speed of light. As the bubble expands, it rams into surrounding clouds of gas and dust. That causes parts of the bubble to glow, forming the Veil Nebula and some other structures. Images reveal ribbons of gas and dust that intertwine like the strands of a rope. They shine in shades of red, blue, green, and other colors – the result of the elements they contain. Other parts of the Loop shine in wavelengths that are invisible to the human eye. The Cygnus Loop is in the east-northeast at nightfall, to the lower right of Deneb, the bright star at the swan’s tail. The loop spans about six times the width of the full Moon. Small telescopes equipped with the right filters reveal some of the glowing filaments – the fading remnants of a stellar spectacle. Script by Damond Benningfield

Eight-year-old Eli makes a wish on a twilight star and is whisked away on an outer space adventure. Guided by Cygnus, a star boy from the Swan Constellation, they meet the captivating Princess of Glitterland, who tells him to direct all his questions to the Star Maker. But the sinister Glizzards capture them enroute, leaving Eli to wonder if he will ever learn the secret of the stars and find his way back to his home on Earth.

El podcast de este mes es un retrato de un humedal en mayo. Tal vez conozcas al humedal: el Lago Helena de Montana, EU, un lugar donde los playeros hacen escala rumbo al Ártico y donde los pantanos albergan una gran diversidad de aves y otros animales. Pero sin importar si conoces a este lago o no, espero que esta historia te transportará ahí con los sonidos de las polluelas sora, los rascones cara gris, los saltaparedes pantaneros y los chorlos grises migratorios. Y espero que te inspirará a profundizar en tu propia conexión con los humedales, por cualquier parte del mundo que estés.  Estoy especialmente emocionado sobre este podcast porque se trata de una práctica que amo: encontrar un lugar especial en la naturaleza y volver a visitarlo una y otra vez a través de las temporadas, aprender de él, desarrollar una relación con él. Este verano voy a crear una pequeña serie de podcast sobre el Lago Helena, haciendo exactamente eso—visitarlo una y otra vez conforme avance el verano, conocer sus ritmos. Este podcast es el primero de la serie. Espero que lo disfrutes, y como siempre, gracias por ser parte de este proyecto de compartir historias!  Esta historia incluye varias grabaciones que hice de los sonidos del Lago Helena. Del 16 de mayo de 2023 escuchamos una grabación de cisnes trompeteros (Cygnus buccinator). Del 15 de mayo de 2024 escuchamos muchas aves, incluso: playero diminuto (Calidris minutilla), chorlo gris (Pluvialis squatarola), polluela sora (Porzana carolina), saltapared pantanero (Cistothorus palustris), tordo sargento (Agelaius phoeniceus), avoceta americana (Recurvirostra americana), gaviota pico anillado (Larus delawarensis), chorlo semipalmeado (Charadrius semipalmatus) y rascón cara gris (Rallus limicola).

This month's podcast is a portrait of a wetland in May. Some of you know the wetland: Montana's Lake Helena, a site where Arctic shorebirds stop over and where the marshes support a great diversity of birds and other animals. But whether you know this place or not, I hope this story will transport you there with the sounds of soras, Virginia rails, marsh wrens, and migrating black-bellied plovers. And I hope it will inspire you to deepen your own connection with wetlands wherever you are. I'm especially excited about this podcast because it's about a practice that I love: finding a special place in nature and visiting it again and again over the seasons, learning from it, developing a relationship with it. This summer I'm going to be a podcast mini-series on Lake Helena, doing exactly that—revisiting it as the summer progresses, learning its rhythms. This is the first of that series. I hope you enjoy this podcast, and as always, thanks for being part of this storytelling project! This story features many recordings I made of natural sounds at Lake Helena. From May 16, 2023, we hear a recording of trumpeter swans (Cygnus buccinator). From May 15, 2024, we hear many birds, including least sandpiper (Calidris minutilla), black-bellied plover (Pluvialis squatarola), sora (Porzana carolina), marsh wren (Cistothorus palustris), red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus), American avocet (Recurvirostra americana), ring-billed gull (Larus delawarensis), semipalmated plover (Charadrius semipalmatus), and Virginia rail (Rallus limicola).

At heart, just about every star is a potential cannibal. Stars that travel through space alone don't get the chance to act on that instinct. But those with close companions sometimes do act on it. They can pull gas from the companion, eventually leaving the companion with no more than its hot core. A recent study found a handful of such systems. Three of them are in Cygnus, the swan. One example is called 60 Cygni. Its two stars are about as far apart as Mars and the Sun. The main star appears to be more than 10 times as massive as the Sun. It's also much hotter and brighter than the Sun. The companion appears to be a stripped-down core — its outer layers have been cannibalized by the heavy star. When the system was born, the stripped star probably was the more-massive member. As it reached the end of the prime phase of life, it puffed up. That allowed the companion to start pulling away some of the dying star's outer layers of gas. Eventually, all of the material in the outer layers might have been transferred to the other star, making it the bigger member of the duo. In time, that star will begin to expand as well. So the stripped-down companion may begin to pull away its outer layers — cannibalizing the cannibal. Cygnus is low in the northeast not long after the sky gets good and dark. But you need binoculars or a telescope to find its possible cannibals. Script by Damond Benningfield

Prepare for a cosmic revelation in SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 49, as we journey through the Milky Way to uncover a celestial heavyweight—the most massive stellar black hole ever discovered in our galaxy. Detected by the vigilant eyes of the European Space Agency's Gaia mission, this black hole, known as Gaia BH3, imposes a peculiar wobble on its companion star, betraying its presence. Weighing in at a colossal 33 solar masses and residing a mere 2,000 light-years away in the constellation Aquila, BH3 redefines our understanding of stellar remnants and the mysterious dance of gravity and mass that shapes them.Then, we take a detour through the evolutionary tracks of white dwarf stars, which have long been the cooling embers of the cosmic campfire. Recent observations from Gaia have spotted a group of these stellar corpses defying the natural order, mysteriously ceasing to cool. This perplexing behavior is challenging astronomers to rethink the very nature of these ancient stars, which may not be the reliable cosmic clocks once thought.We'll also explore the technological advancements propelling humanity's reach into the cosmos with the development of a new, more capacious Cygnus cargo ship. Set to enhance supply missions to the International Space Station, this vessel promises to double the payload space and carry up to five tonnes of cargo, marking a significant leap forward in our orbital endeavors.And in our Science Report, we celebrate the end of the 2023-24 El Niño weather pattern, but with a watchful eye on the horizon for a potential return to La Niña conditions. Plus, we delve into the health risks of sugary and artificially sweetened drinks, the discovery of a jaw-droppingly large marine reptile, and the curious case of an extensive paranormal archive that sparks more questions than answers.For the full cosmic journey, visit our website at https://spacetimewithstuartgary.com and support the show at https://www.spreaker.com/show/spacetime.

Astronomers have discovered dozens of planets that orbit both stars in a binary system. Like Tatooine of “Star Wars” fame, that gives the planets double sunrises and sunsets. But only a handful of those planets lie in their system's “habitable zone” — the region around the stars that are most comfortable for life. That means we haven't yet seen a real Tatooine just yet. One of the circumbinary systems is close to the Northern Cross — the body and wings of Cygnus, the swan — which is nosediving into the northwestern horizon at sunset. The system is just off the end of the right arm of the cross. But it's so faint that you need a telescope to see it. The system is known as Kepler-47. It's more than 3,000 light-years away. And it's perhaps the most Tatooine-like system yet seen. Its main star is about as big and as bright as the Sun. The second star is a bit smaller and a good bit fainter. The planet orbits them once every 10 months, at an average distance that's about the same as Earth to the Sun. The planet itself is a bit more than three times the mass of Earth, and about five times Earth's diameter. That means it's probably half gas and half rock and ice. That composition isn't especially good for hosting life. But the planet could have good-sized moons, where conditions could be more comfortable. So while Kepler-47c might not be Tatooine, one of its moons could be. Script by Damond Benningfield
