The first list of the 2025 Chanticleer' Int'l Book Awards is here with the Cygnus Awards! A huge thank you to all of these authors for starting us off strong in the sci-fi genre!

The northernmost star in the Summer Triangle is Deneb, which marks the tail of Cygnus the Swan.

425 years ago, a “new” star flared to life near the neck of Cygnus, the swan. The star slowly faded, then flared twice more during the 17th century. It’s remained visible ever since. And someday soon, it’ll flare up again – for the last time: It’ll explode as a supernova. P Cygni is more than 5,000 light-years away, so it must be extremely bright for us to see it at all. And in fact, it’s one of the brightest stars in the entire galaxy – 600 thousand times brighter than the Sun. P Cygni is so brilliant because it’s 35 to 40 times the mass of the Sun. Such a monster burns through the nuclear fuel in its core in a hurry. So even though P Cygni is only a few million years old – compared to four and a half billion years for the Sun – it’s nearing its end. The earlier outbursts might have erupted because the star’s interior is unstable. It gets so hot that the star blasts some of the gas at its surface into space. There’s evidence that similar outbursts took place thousands of years earlier. P Cygni is likely to explode within a couple of million years. Its core might collapse to form a super-dense neutron star – or even a black hole. Under dark skies, P Cygni is visible to the eye alone. At nightfall, it’s in the east-northeast, close to the right of Sadr, the bright star that connects the swan’s body to its wings. More about the swan tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield

When the Greek army arrives at Troy they encounter Cygnus, the indestructible man, and wrestle with the prophecy of Calchas which says that the first man to step ashore will be the first to die.    www.JayLeeming.com

Cygnus, the swan, soars gracefully through summer nights. Its brightest star, Deneb, is in the northeast at nightfall. It marks the swan’s tail. The swan’s body stretches to the right, parallel to the horizon. The wings extend above and below, connected to the body by the star Sadr. Cygnus contains many star clusters. The list includes several that stretch from Sadr to the south, roughly along the swan’s neck. The clusters contain a few dozen to a few hundred stars. All of them are young – no more than about 10 million years old. And many of them are especially hot, bright, and massive. The clusters are indirectly related. They belong to much larger collections of young stars, plus the raw materials for making more stars. A “wave” passed through that region of the galaxy, squeezing gigantic clouds of gas and dust. Clumps of material within the clouds collapsed, forming stars. Over the next few million years, the most massive stars will explode as supernovas. Shockwaves from the blasts may compress more pockets of gas and dust, creating more stars. But the clusters themselves won’t survive much longer – at least on the galactic timescale. They’ll be pulled apart by the gravity of the surrounding stars and clouds, so their stars will go their separate ways. The clusters are easy targets for good binoculars. One is just a whisker from Sadr. Several others trail off to the right – sparkly decorations for the swan. Script by Damond Benningfield

The story of a black hole in Cygnus, the swan, is like the tale of an angler – there’s the star it caught, and the one that got away. V404 Cygni is about 7800 light-years away. It appears fairly close to the star that marks the intersection of the swan’s body and wings, which is high in the sky at dawn. The system was first noticed in 1938, when it flared up – a performance it’s repeated several times. Later, it was discovered that V404 Cygni is a tight binary: a black hole about nine times the mass of the Sun, plus a “normal” star a little less massive than the Sun. The black hole is pulling gas from the companion. The gas forms a disk around the black hole. Every couple of decades, so much gas piles up that it sets off an explosion. That makes the system shine thousands of times brighter. Recently, astronomers found that what looked like a background star probably is bound to the other two. It’s more than 300 billion miles from them. It’s bigger and heavier than the Sun, and is puffing up to become a giant. This third star is about four billion years old – suggesting that the black hole is also that old. The black hole is the corpse of a massive star. Most such stars explode, hurling away any companions. This star must have collapsed completely, without exploding. Since then, it’s consumed at least half of its close companion – but the distant one got away. Script by Damond Benningfield

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.

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.

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

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

PREVIEW: #SPACE STATIONS: Collegue Bob Zimmerman introduces a French private statup to launch cargo craft to resupply ISS and several unbuilt privately owned space stations -- and asking why all the business with an untested company and not also with proven Dragon or Cygnus capsules?  More on commercial space later. undated French balloonists

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
