Sponsor Link:To grab our special money saving NordVPN deal - Click HereIn today's episode, Anna and Avery cover a blue whale-sized asteroid making a close pass of Earth today, the imminent debut of SpaceX's most powerful rocket yet, NASA's Psyche spacecraft successfully completing its Mars gravity assist, fresh science arriving at the ISS, a new physics paper challenging the simulation hypothesis at its foundations, and Congress pushing back hard against proposed cuts to NASA's science budget.   Story 1 — Asteroid 2026 JH2 Newly discovered asteroid 2026 JH2 (first spotted 10 May 2026) makes a close Earth flyby today at ~90,000 km — within the orbital radius of many satellites. Estimated size: up to ~35 metres (blue whale-sized). Zero impact risk confirmed. Observable with binoculars at peak magnitude ~11.5. Live stream available via the Virtual Telescope Project. Orbital period: 3.7 years between Earth and Jupiter.   Story 2 — Starship V3 / Flight 12 SpaceX targets May 19, 2026 for the debut of Starship Version 3 (Flight 12) from Pad 2 at Starbase, Texas. Launch window opens 6:30 PM EDT. Key upgrades: Raptor 3 engines (250 tf SL thrust, up from 230 tf), three larger grid fins, new integrated hot-stage design, updated propellant systems. No tower catch on this flight; booster splashes in Gulf of Mexico. Upper stage (Ship 39) targets Indian Ocean after 65 minutes. Payload: 22 Starlink simulator satellites. Critical step toward Artemis lunar landings.   Story 3 — NASA Psyche Mars Flyby On 15 May 2026 at 3:28 PM EDT, Psyche completed its Mars gravity assist at 4,500 km altitude travelling at 12,333 mph. Passed inside the orbits of both Martian moons. Confirmed by Doppler shift monitoring. Mission: en route to metal-rich asteroid 16 Psyche (arrival July 2029). Thousands of Mars observations gathered for science calibration.   Story 4 — SpaceX CRS-34 SpaceX's 34th Dragon cargo mission docked at ISS at 6:37 AM EDT on 17 May 2026, delivering ~6,500 lb of cargo for Expedition 74. Science payloads include: microgravity simulator validation study, wood-based bone scaffold (osteoporosis research), red blood cell/spleen spaceflight study. Dragon will return to Earth mid-June splashing down off California coast.   Story 5 — Simulation Hypothesis Paper Paper: ‘Non-algorithmic physics and the limits of the simulation hypothesis', published in the Journal of Holography Applications in Physics. Authors: Mir Faizal (UBC Okanagan), Lawrence Krauss, Arshid Shabir, Francesco Marino. Core argument: using Gödel's incompleteness theorems, the team argues any theory of quantum gravity would be non-algorithmic — containing truths no computation can capture. Since any simulation requires algorithms, reality cannot be fully simulated. Note: this is a theoretical paper, not an experimental result. The authors acknowledge no complete quantum gravity theory currently exists.   Story 6 — NASA FY2027 Budget House Appropriations Committee approved $24.438 billion for NASA in FY2027 — matching FY2026 and rejecting the White House's proposed $18.8 billion (a 23% cut). The proposal would have cut the Science Mission Directorate by 46%, terminating 50+ missions. Committee protects science, Habitable Worlds Observatory, and STEM education funding. Bill still needs Senate passage and reconciliation.   Skywatching TONIGHT — Moon-Venus conjunction: look west after sunset for the crescent Moon close to brilliant Venus.

FLYBY 4/22/26

NASA's Artemis II crew has safely returned to Earth after a historic lunar flyby, travelling farther than any humans before. The mission tested deep-space return systems and observed the moon's south pole, advancing future lunar plans. Officials hailed its success, with goals to land astronauts by 2028. Amid global tensions, seasoned astronauts and experts say the achievement offers a rare moment of optimism and renewed focus on space exploration.

Artemis II crew return safely after historic lunar flyby and 10 days in space; Australia and Singapore guarantee fuel and LNG supply continuity; And in sport, a record and an upset at the Australian Athletics Championship in Sydney.

South Africa's Hartebeesthoek ground station has once again proven its strategic value in deep space exploration, delivering critical tracking support for NASA's historic Artemis II mission, the first crewed lunar flyby in over 50 years. SANSA Space Operations Executive Director Raoul Hodges told BizNews in an interview, how the station's veteran 12-metre antenna provided essential one-way data to help pinpoint the Orion spacecraft, the excitement in the control room during passes behind the Moon's far side, and why South Africa's Southern Hemisphere location remains vital for global lunar missions. Looking ahead, Hodges outlines plans for the new Matjiesfontein ground station and efforts to train the next generation of South African space professionals as the country positions itself for Artemis III, IV and the intensifying international space race. – Linda van Tilburg

Trump, Iran agree to two-week ceasefire, plan to open Strait of Hormuz. Artemis II swings back around after completing record-setting moon flyby. Zach Abraham, Bulwark Capital, talks about the effect of the cease fire on oil prices. One-Hit Wonder Wednesday. 

In this eye-opening episode of TGI Now Podcast, we dive deep into the explosive controversy surrounding NASA's Artemis II mission. Just as the four-person crew completed their record-breaking lunar flyby — venturing farther from Earth than any humans since Apollo and circling the mysterious dark side of the Moon with stunning views of Earth, solar eclipses, and never-before-seen lunar terrain — viral clips have ignited fresh claims that the whole thing is staged. A live interview featuring astronauts and a floating plush toy (meant to demonstrate zero gravity) was recorded off a TV screen, revealing what many call obvious green screen artifacts reviving old questions about NASA footage and accusing the agency of Hollywood-level fakery. #moon #fake #greenscreen #artemisII

The Artemis II crew — Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and Jeremy Hansen — are on final approach to Earth after nine historic days in deep space. Splashdown is scheduled for Friday off San Diego. We have the full countdown, plus the story behind what NASA scientists called 'audible screams of delight' when the crew spotted micrometeorite impact flashes on the Moon during their lunar flyby. Also in today's episode: astronomers at ISTA in Austria have identified a brand new class of stellar remnant — two ultra-massive, X-ray emitting white dwarfs named Gandalf and Moon-Sized. Mars continues to disappoint on the habitability front. Four planets are lining up in April skies. And we close with the story of four astronauts, their iPhones, and the greatest selfies in human history.   Sources & links: •       Artemis II splashdown coverage: nasa.gov/artemis •       Micrometeorite impacts & lunar science: space.com | sciencenews.org | spaceq.ca •       Gandalf & Moon-Sized white dwarfs: ista.ac.at | universetoday.com •       Mars surface habitability: universetoday.com •       April planet alignment: starwalk.space •       Artemis II iPhone photography: space.com | engadget.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/astronomy-daily-space-news-updates--5648921/support.Sponsor Details:Ensure your online privacy by using NordVPN.

Niamh Shaw, Science Communicator specialising in Space, on Artemis II astronauts reaching the far side of the moon.

The United States is continuing to strike Iran following a stunning rescue of a U.S. airman. President Donald Trump will address the nation on Monday on Operation Epic Fury. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt says the president's press conference on Iran will take place in the White House Briefing Room due to popular demand from the press.NASA's Artemis II mission is now entering a critical phase, with astronauts preparing for a historic flyby of the moon. NASA said lunar gravity will soon take over. The mission marks the first crewed journey around the Moon in more than five decades. NASA said the Moon's surface offers a record of the solar system's history through its impact craters. NASA said the mission will help pave the way for future efforts to return humans to the lunar surface later this decade.The White House is hosting its annual Easter Egg Roll today on the South Lawn, with a patriotic theme tied to America's 250th anniversary.
