PODCAST 137 WHEN THE MOON MEETS CULTURE A WAY OF LIFE COPYRIGHT2021ISBN 979-8-88525-624-7.mp3Theoretically speaking my mental processes were activated because I wanted  to gain knowledge and comprehension regarding the pertinent question whether we need the moon? Given the specifics and relevance of this topic I will juxtapose the same  against Henry Little's statement “for almost the entirety of man's recorded 50,000- year history the moon has been unattainable provides scope for the reason why I am investigating the same so as ascertain how global citizens think and the processes involved. Now that I have established context at this juncture let me categorically state from the outset that I am not an astronomer but an Author, Cinematographer, Media Arts Specialist, License Cultural Practitioner, Podcaster and Publisher who has a keen interest in protecting and preserving the natural environment in nature and the world. In pursuance of research I unearthed the fact that  Guido Masé had captured and framed in detail the fact that  Life on earth would be quite different without our natural satellite. Most would agree that the daily rising and falling of the moon, along with the monthly waxing and waning cycles, have effects on our oceans and seas. The tides are crucial to life: tidal pools, sheltered and renewed in rhythm with these cycles, catalyzed some of the first stable ecologies and still represent unique niches. On the other hand in all plausibility all things being considered we might owe our very existence to it because its pull of gravity might have set our plate tectonics in motion. To further elucidate this point as I continue navigating this space I have discovered that the stark reality is that without plate tectonics, our planet might be more like Venus, toasty and dead. It raises the level of the world's oceans towards the equator.  in spite of this through the chronicle lens I have also gleaned that that historically speaking in this ambience the usual English proper name for Earth's natural satellite is simply the Moon, with a capital M. The noun moon is derived from Old English mōna, which (like all its Germanic cognates) stems from Proto-Germanic *mēnōn,which in turn comes from Proto-Indo-European *mēnsis "month" (from earlier *mēnōt, genitive *mēneses) which may be related to the verb "measure" (of time). Occasionally, the name Luna /ˈluːnə/ is used in scientific writingand especially in science fiction to distinguish the Earth's moon from others, while in poetry "Luna" has been used to denote personification of the Moon.WORKS CITEDBarnhart, Robert K.

USQ's Professor Jonti Horner loves a radio studio! Today, he spontaneously dropped in on Phoenix Radio's Bright Morning Boys Nick and Alisdair and ended up joining in their weekly discussion about 'Recent Developments’!

In Part 3 of an extended three part interview, our featured guest is again Professor Jonti Horner, the Professor of Astrophysics at the University of Southern Queensland in Australia. With thousands of citations, he is an esteemed Astronomer and Astrobiologist who researches Exoplanets, Exoplanet Habitability and the evolution of our Solar system. Jonti has lead the construction of the newly commissioned MINERVA-Australis exoplanet search and follow-up facility at the USQ Mt. Kent Observatory. In todays episode we hear about how the media needs to stop speculating about Earth II until we actually find one, and how often we can expect meteor impacts on earth cities. Jonti explains the origins and causes of meteor showers Our regular host Dr Ian Musgrave tells us what to look for in the night skies for the next two weeks, and in ‘Ian’s Tangent’ we find out about XXXXXXXX Now our news is truncated today, because I’m pretty determined to keep our podcasts under 60 minutes, so I’ll just give you the summary and provide the weblink for you. .1. Ironically, given Jonti’s presentation today about rogue asteroids, we hear that we had a ‘near-miss’ asteroid transit between the earth and the moon’s orbit, which was not detected till *after* the fly-by. Ooops! No need for Bruce Willis and the nuclear option. Lol That article is at tinyurl-DOT-com/hahamissed .2. The MINERVA-Australis exoplanet search and follow-up facility led by Professor Horner at the USQ Mt. Kent Observatory has seen first light and been commissioned. That story is at tinyurl-DOT-com/minervaDASHaustralis .3. Congratulations to the people in the Australian outback who thought they witnessed an alien spacecraft, and to Jonti again, who explained in the media how they had actually seen the Indian Moon mission launch. That rather amusing story is at tinyurl-DOT-com/sorrynotaliens .4. Bigger congratulations to the Indian space agency ISRO for their fabulously successful launch for their mission to put their rover and lander on the south pole of the moon. There's a great story about the trajectory they are taking at tinyurl-DOT-com/indianmoonlaunch
