THE AUDACITY OF THE MARS COLONIZATION VISION Colleague Eric Berger. In September 2016, Elon Musk presented a vision in Guadalajara that sounded like science fiction: a plan to colonize Mars to prevent a potential extinction event. Despite a recent rocket explosion, Musk proposed a "grandiose architecture" involving massive reusable rockets designed to transport a million tons of supplies and thousands of people to build a self-sustaining civilization. While skeptics viewed the timeline as unrealistic, the plan relied on established physics and the production of methane fuel on Mars. Musk's ultimate goal for SpaceX remains clearly focused on making humanity multi-planetary. NUMBER 1 AUGUST 1953

RISKING IT ALL TO DOCK DRAGON WITH THE ISS Colleague Eric Berger. To fund its Mars ambitions, SpaceX needed NASA contracts to deliver cargo to the International Space Station (ISS) using the Dragon spacecraft. Unlike traditional capsules, Dragon integrated propulsion directly into the vehicle to support future reusability. Behind schedule, SpaceX combined two test missions (C2 and C3) into one high-stakes attempt. During the approach, the spacecraft's LIDAR navigation system faltered, forcing NASA flight director Holly Ridings to make a "brave call": she allowed SpaceX to rewrite software on the fly, defying standard mission rules to achieve a successful docking. NUMBER 3 MAY 1953

STARLINK: THE ECONOMIC ENGINE FOR MARS Colleague Eric Berger. To finance the massive costs of the Mars program, SpaceX developed Starlink, a constellation of thousands of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites designed to provide global internet. While previous attempts at LEO constellations were deemed impractical due to manufacturing challenges, SpaceX is now operating thousands of satellites, outpacing sovereign nations and competitors like Amazon's Kuiper. This aggressive expansion relies on the reusable Block 5 Falcon 9 boosters to launch dozens of satellites at once, generating the revenue necessary to build the Starship architecture. NUMBER 6 SEPTEMBER 1955

STARSHIP: THE FULLY REUSABLE ARCHITECTURE FOR MARS Colleague Eric Berger. At Boca Chica, Texas, SpaceX transformed a swamp into "Starbase," a modern rocket factory for the Starship and Super Heavy launch system. Starship represents the endgame of Musk's vision: a fully reusable rocket larger than the Saturn V, designed to be caught by "chopstick" arms on the launch tower to eliminate landing legs and speed up reuse. The plan involves orbital refueling and launching fleets of ships every two years to transport massive amounts of cargo, serving as a "Grand Central Station" for deep space colonization.

In this episode of Future Tech, filmmaker Jason Sherman speaks with Al Holland, NASA's longtime senior operational psychologist, about the human systems behind spaceflight. Holland helped shape how astronauts are selected, trained, and supported for long-duration missions, including the International Space Station and future missions to Mars. Drawing from decades of experience at NASA, Holland discusses how astronauts were selected and trained for long-duration missions, why teamwork and self-regulation matter as much as technical skill, and how isolation, sleep disruption, and separation from family quietly shape performance in space. He also reflects on early astronaut training at places like the Johnsville Centrifuge and how lessons from Cold War research continue to influence modern missions to the International Space Station and future journeys to Mars. This conversation is part of the ongoing research and storytelling behind the documentary “Before the Moon”, which explores the hidden places, people, and systems that made human spaceflight possible.

Cosmic Q&A: Light in Space, Astronaut Shielding, and Ice GiantsIn this engaging Q&A edition of Space Nuts, hosts Andrew Dunkley and Professor Fred Watson tackle intriguing listener questions that delve into the mysteries of space. From the visibility of Voyager 1 in the depths of the solar system to the challenges of shielding astronauts from cosmic radiation, this episode is a treasure trove of cosmic knowledge.Episode Highlights:- Light in Space: Lee from New York City poses a thought-provoking question about how much light exists in space. Andrew and Fred explore the visibility of Voyager 1 and the implications of being far from the Sun, shedding light on human eye sensitivity and the ambient light from stars.- Shielding Astronauts: Fenton from St. Paul, Minnesota, raises an important question about protecting astronauts from radiation beyond the Van Allen Belt. The hosts discuss potential technologies, including superconducting electromagnets and the surprising effectiveness of hydrogen-rich materials like water as radiation shields.- Moon Comparisons: Robert from Vienna, Austria, wonders how our understanding of the solar system would differ if Earth had a moon like Europa or Titan, rather than our heavily cratered moon. The discussion highlights the significance of craters in understanding planetary history and the feasibility of landing on such moons.- Ice Giants Explained: Duncan from Weymouth, UK, questions why Uranus and Neptune are termed "ice giants" instead of "rock giants." Andrew and Fred clarify the definitions and characteristics that distinguish these planets from their gas giant counterparts, emphasizing the unique atmospheric compositions.For more Space Nuts, including our continuously updating newsfeed and to listen to all our episodes, visit our website. Follow us on social media at SpaceNutsPod on Facebook, X, YouTube Music Music, Tumblr, Instagram, and TikTok.

Plan your year in sync with astrology at MindfulNewYear.comIn this episode of the Quietmind Astrology Podcast, we explore the unique energy of the final week of December 2025 - that awkward in-between time where one year ends and the next begins. With a powerful Stellium in Sagittarius (Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars), the cosmos is inviting us to explore, learn, and expand our horizons before the practical energy of Capricorn sets in mid-January.We also dive into the upcoming Full Moon in Ardra Nakshatra on January 3rd, a time ripe for emotional catharsis, "stormy" transformative energy, and intellectual breakthroughs. Learn why New Year's resolutions often fail, how to use the "GPS Method" for spiritual manifestation, and how to navigate information overload in the modern age.Key Takeaways & Timestamps00:00 – The "In-Between" Week & The 2026 FrequencyWe start by acknowledging the awkward limbo between Christmas and New Year's, a time often marked by confusion on where to focus. However, energetically, we are already shifting from the 2025 frequency of endings and completion into the 2026 frequency of possibility, expansion, and new creation (a 1 year in vedic numerology). 01:08 – Sagittarius Stellium: A Time for ExplorationA major Stellium is occurring in Sagittarius involving Mercury, Venus, the Sun, and Mars. This alignment emphasizes exploration, learning, and growth, making it an excellent week for working with mentors, studying philosophy, or traveling to new places, even if just exploring a new part of your local town. 02:04 – Reviewing the Year with MercuryWith Mercury (the intellect) in Sagittarius, now is the ideal time to review the past year: what went well, what didn't, and what lessons were learned. Depending on your rising sign, this energy highlights different areas of life, such as relationships (7th House) or creativity and children (5th House). 04:34 – Why New Year's Resolutions FailResolutions often fade by February because we set them during the fun, expansive energy of Sagittarius, but fail to maintain them when the sun moves into the practical, work-oriented energy of Capricorn in mid-January. To make goals stick, we must be prepared to transition from "dreaming big" to "doing the work." 06:54 – The GPS Method for ManifestationRather than viewing goals as a linear struggle, think of them like a GPS: identify Point A (current reality) and Point B (desired outcome). Spiritually, the shortest distance isn't a line but a single point; by embodying the frequency of your goal now (happiness, excitement), you attract that reality faster and with less resistance. 13:51 – Full Moon in Ardra (January 3rd)We transition into the New Year with a Full Moon in Ardra Nakshatra (Gemini). Ruled by Rudra, the storm god, this energy brings emotional storms and tears that cleanse and purify, much like rain after a drought. Expect opportunities for deep emotional catharsis, truth-telling, and intellectual breakthroughs. 16:12 – Managing Nervous Energy & Information OverloadThe combination of Gemini and Mercury can lead to nervous system agitation and information overload - a common challenge in the AI age. If you feel triggered or overwhelmed, prioritize nervous system regulation (yoga, meditation) and focus only on information relevant to your current life stage or Dasha (e.g., service during a Saturn period).

One of our favorite interviews of 2025 was with Dr. Robert Zubrin, founder of the Mars Society and the mind behind Mars Direct, a streamlined approach to reaching the Red Planet with human beings that was later largely adopted by NASA in their mission designs. It's a fascinating story about a man who continually swam upstream against strong currents of the aerospace establishment. His seminal book, "The Case for Mars," has enjoyed multiple reprints and influenced millions. Join us for this encore of an informative and forward-looking episode!

January 2026 opens with an extraordinary astrological landscape — one that invites reflection, choice, and conscious participation.In this episode, we explore a rare continuation of out-of-bounds planetary activity, with the Moon, Mercury, Venus, and Mars all operating beyond their usual limits in the opening days of the year. When planets go out of bounds, they behave with fewer internal restraints, offering powerful opportunities to act, create, decide, and respond in new ways — if we're paying attention.You'll hear about: What out-of-bounds planets mean in astrology, and how to work with them intentionally How Mercury, Venus, and Mars out of bounds in Capricorn may challenge habits, plans, and self-control Why Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) are especially activated this month Emotional intelligence as a resource while the Moon repeatedly goes out of bounds in Cancer How different Cardinal signs may experience these energies internally and relationally January also carries the final phase of the Saturn–Neptune conjunction in Pisces, a long transit associated with disillusionment, endings, grief, realism, and the reshaping of dreams. As Neptune prepares to leave Pisces for the last time in our lifetime, this episode reflects on what it means to allow something to dissolve — and how acceptance can quietly prepare the ground for a new foundation.Along the way, we draw inspiration from music and myth, including reflections on Roy Orbison, whose Saturn–Neptune signature speaks poignantly to the tension between dreams and reality.This forecast also covers: A powerful run of stelliums from Capricorn into Aquarius A rare six-planet, double-sign stellium around January 19 How to work with intense concentrations of planetary energy through focus and leadership A brief but meaningful opposition to Jupiter, highlighting themes of polarization, excess, and negotiation The shift from Capricorn's managerial intelligence to Aquarius' visionary design This episode is best enjoyed as a contemplative listen — whether you're reflecting on your own chart, navigating change in your life, or simply tuning into the larger collective moment as we cross fully into 2026.To explore these themes further, you're invited to join upcoming conversations and webinars featured on the Astrology University events calendar.Take care of yourself, stay connected to what matters, and remember: astrology doesn't tell us what will happen — it helps us understand how to meet what's happening with greater awareness, choice, and compassion.

This week, we cover seven transits—including Mercury entering Capricorn on January 1st, Chiron stationing direct in Aries, and a Full Moon in Cancer—as 2026 begins with rare alignment: Mars, the Sun, and Venus in Capricorn all forming sextiles to the North Node in Pisces.But first, a reflection on the Sean Combs documentary The Reckoning—not to pile on, but to sit with what it stirred up in me as an astrologer who shares key placements with him. What separates transformation from destruction? What happens when Scorpio's intensity finds the shadow instead of the light? And as Pluto enters Aquarius for the next 20 years, is the era of the untouchable star finally ending?Plus: the nine-year numerology cycle begins, and I share where I was in 2017 versus now—and invite you to do the same.(2:18) Astrological reflections on the Sean Combs: The Reckoning(24:11) Mars in Capricorn Sextile the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 11° – December 26 – 31 (Friday – Wednesday) – Monday, December 29.(26:53) Mercury in Sagittarius Square Saturn in Pisces 26° – December 25 – 28 (Thursday – Sunday) – December 28 – 31 (Sunday – Wednesday) – Monday, December 29.(34:56) Mercury in Capricorn – January 1 – 20, 2026Dates that Mercury transited through Capricorn previously:January 8 – 27, 2025January 13 – February 4, 2024December 6, 2022 – February 11, 2023December 13, 2021 – January 2, 2022(40:50) The Sun in Capricorn Sextile the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 10° – December 29 – January 2 (Monday – Friday) – Thursday, January 1.Venus in Capricorn Sextile the North Node Retrograde in Pisces 10° – December 31 – January 2 (Wednesday – Friday) – Thursday, January 1.(48:40) Chiron Direct in Aries 22°35' April 5, 2025 – Chiron Enters its Retrograde Shadow in Aries 22°35' (Same day that Saturn entered its Retrograde Shadow in Pisces 25°02')July 30, 2025 – Chiron Retrograde in Aries 27°09'January 2, 2026 – Chiron Direct in Aries 22°35'April 25, 2026 – Chiron Exits its Retrograde Shadow in Aries 27°09'(56:11) The Full Moon in Cancer 13° at 2:02 AM PST on Saturday, January 3, 2026.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get the 2026 Astrology Guide⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join ⁠my Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theweeklytransit.com/

This final week of the year carries a sober, luminous tone. Mind, faith, and healing are tested against reality, mystery, and emotional truth. What remains after illusion falls away is not certainty—but something more trustworthy.Mon, Dec 29 — Mercury in Sagittarius square Saturn in PiscesBeliefs meet consequence. Words meet responsibility. This is a moment to discern which truths can be lived—and which were aspirational but ungrounded. Sobriety sharpens wisdom.Reflection Question: Which beliefs am I being asked to mature, simplify, or release as this year closes?Thur, Jan 1 — Mercury in Sagittarius square Neptune in PiscesVision blurs, certainty dissolves. This is not confusion for its own sake, but an invitation to loosen the grip on meaning-making and listen for subtler guidance. Not all truth arrives in words.Reflection Question: Where can I loosen my grip on meaning and allow deeper truth to emerge without forcing clarity?Fri, Jan 2 — Chiron turns direct in AriesAfter months of inner review, the work of healing identity turns outward again. This marks the final full retrograde chapter of Chiron in Aries—an initiation nearly complete.Reflection Question: What kind of courage now feels rooted rather than reactive?Sat, Jan 3 — Full Moon at 13° Cancer (Sun conjunct Venus & Mars in Capricorn | Moon conjunct Jupiter in Cancer)Emotional truth swells against structures of duty and ambition. What nourishes you seeks recognition—not as indulgence, but as essential fuel for the road ahead.Reflection Question: What does emotional nourishment ask me to protect and prioritize as I step into the year ahead?Podcast Poem: How the Light Comes by Jan RichardsonSupport the showGo to Sheila's website for information for transformational resources: https://www.ontheedgesofchange.com/home-page This episode was co-created with generative AI, engaged as a soul-aligned ally in service of transformation.

In this episode of So Divine!, Stephanie and Megan explore the celestial landscape for January. They begin with a peek into what's ahead in 2026, including the dramatic Saturn/Neptune Conjunction in Aries, which offers a cosmic sense of a new beginning. Looking at this month's astrological inspirations, they begin by discussing Chiron stationing direct and how this may trigger our "ouch spots” as well as offer us an opportunity for healing. They talk about Venus and Mars dancing together in Capricorn, each forming potent cazimis as they oppose Jupiter in Cancer; with this, we're invited to find growth and possibility through weaving together the the feminine and masculine, love and desire. They discuss the shift of planets into Aquarius that occurs later in the month and how with their making a union with Pluto, we're brought into a sphere of intensity, encouraged to excavate what resides below the surface in service of deep transformation. Additionally, they explore this month's lunations: the Cancer Full Moon and Capricorn New Moon. Stephanie picks a Tarot card at random--the Chariot--and Megan explains how this archetype inspires us to get moving on actualizing our dreams and going after our goals using our intuition to guide us.  

December 29, 2025 – January 4, 2026Full Moon in Cancer • New Year Timeline ShiftWe're closing out 2025 in true Taurus-to-Gemini style — steady one minute, buzzing with ideas the next. The energy this week starts grounded, gets chatty, and then turns deeply emotional as we build toward a powerful Full Moon in Cancer on January 3rd.This isn't just any full moon — it hits at 13° Cancer, the exact degree Jupiter retrogrades back to. That means whatever rises now is tied to expansion, healing, and something that will matter long after this week is over. Pay attention to where 13° Cancer lands in your chart. That house is calling you forward.We're also working with Mars, Mercury, Venus, and the Sun all making moves that feel like:“You can't take the old mindset into the new year.”And it's true — this week sorts what's staying, what's gone, and what your soul is actually aligned with now.New Year's Eve feels social but not chaotic. New Year's Day feels intuitive, sensitive, and full of subtle turning points. The real emotional wave hits as the Full Moon arrives — and it's less “New Year, New Me” and more “This is who I really am now.”GET YOUR PERSONALIZED RECORDED READING @SCHEDULINGFATE.COM✅ Book a recorded or Zoom reading here: https://www.schedulingfate.com/book-online❤️ Get your personalized reports here: https://www.schedulingfate.com/category/all-products

The Space Show Presents Special End of Year Messaging From Space Show Supporters To All, Friday, 12-16-25Quick Summary:Our program began with discussions exploring technical and political challenges related to NASA's Artemis program and the 2028 moon landing timeline, including concerns about safety, funding, and competing lunar missions. The conversation ended with discussions about autonomous systems in space, regulatory requirements for pilots, and the current state of the Space Show's funding and operations. Space Show participants included myself, Marshall Martin, John Jossy, John Hunt and later we were joined by Phil Swan.David began by promoting a recent segment highlighting past programs and encouraging donations to support the show during the final days of our 2025 campaign. Marshall shared his long-standing interest in space and support for the Space Show, recalling a childhood fascination with space and his daughter's involvement in a Loral tour. He talked about his compelling need to continue financially donating to The Space Show and urged other listeners to do the same given the importance of the program and its unique format. Marshall and David then discussed the political aspects of space exploration and the importance of understanding political issues to predict future developments. They talked about Jared Isaacman's presence at NASA headquarters and the need for quick decisions regarding the 2028 moon landing timeline. John Hunt expressed concerns about the readiness of the Starship lander for the 2028 mission and suggested that an alternative, human-rated lander would be needed. The Wisdom Team also discussed the potential impact of China's space program on U.S. efforts and the historical context of space race reactions.Team members discussed concerns about the Artemis program's timeline and safety, particularly focusing on Mike Griffin's warning about a 6.5-day wait period before a crew could return from the moon and the potential for crew strandings in crisis situations. They noted that while the 2028 deadline might be unrealistic, Elon Musk's company could potentially develop a competing lunar mission, though Marshall acknowledged this was currently only a 10% possibility. The discussion concluded with John Jossy suggesting that Artemis III might be delayed until a reliable and safe human landing system is developed, while Marshall emphasized that the lunar mission race includes both Artemis and China's space program, with funding and technical challenges remaining significant obstacles for both.The Wisdom Team discussed the challenges of a 2028 moon mission without the Gateway, with David highlighting that Starship would need orbital refueling, a lunar landing system, spacesuits, and an elevator like lander to reach the surface, none of which are currently ready. John Jossy added that Artemis 3 does not plan for a landing pad, and John Hunt suggested that Jared might need to inform the Chief of Staff about the timeline concerns, as President Trump probably wants the mission to happen during his presidency. The discussion concluded with Hunt noting that careerists might be hesitant to speak up due to job security concerns, while Trump might be more willing to take risks.Together we talked about the challenges and potential timelines for returning to the moon, considering both technical and policy aspects. Marshall suggested that Congress might continue to fund a lunar program even if it faces delays, while David proposed a hypothetical 2029 deadline to potentially allow more time for engineering and safety improvements. The discussion highlighted concerns about technological breakthroughs, funding, and the availability of top talent, with John Hunt emphasizing the need for better program management and funding levels to meet goals.The Wisdom Team discussed the challenges and timelines for NASA's Artemis program, particularly focusing on the 2028 deadline for returning to the moon and what it might mean to the administration if that goal is not met. Phil Swan explained his support for the Space Show, emphasizing its focus on scientific depth and honesty in space industry coverage. The panelists then debated whether NASA could meet the 2028 target, with Marshall expressing skepticism about the timeline, while Phil suggested it might be achievable with a more conservative approach using the SLS rocket. The discussion concluded with a hypothetical bet on whether the program would meet the 2028 deadline, with most panelists expressing doubt.Marshall then presented his paper (see it on our blog at www.thespaceshow.com for this program on this date) on defending Earth and space stations from interstellar objects using large mirrors to either melt or redirect the objects. Phil suggested using a solar power satellite with laser beaming instead, as it could provide better range and dual purpose functionality. Marshall agreed to allow John Jossy to post his paper on the blog for further critique and feedback, as he is still working on it and seeking input from informed individuals. Phil also introduced the Evidence Ledger, an open-source peer review process where concepts and claims are reviewed by experts in the field.We then talked about both flight and human spaceflight training and regulations, with Marshall sharing his experience of obtaining a pilot's license in 1973 and David recounting his university flight training back in 67-68. They explored changes to FAA medical certification requirements for pilots, noting that private pilots no longer need a Class 3 medical certificate if their aircraft has a stall speed below 65 knots. The conversation concluded with a discussion about regulatory requirements for human spaceflight crew members, particularly whether they would need pilot licenses for atmospheric portions of their missions. This was answered in emails after the show but the short answer is no but covered in other regulations.Our Wisdom Team discussed the challenges and readiness of autonomous systems in space versus automotive technology, with David comparing the current state of self-driving cars to potential space systems. Phil and Marshall shared insights about space shuttle launches and Apollo missions, emphasizing the role of human pilots and the importance of thorough testing and quality engineering. The conversation highlighted the balance between perfect systems and acceptable risk levels, with Marshall noting that humans can often handle unexpected situations better than computers. The discussion concluded with Marshall's observation about the shift in focus from Mars to the moon, suggesting that solving the moon mission might be a more immediate challenge.Nearing the end of the program, we discussed the challenges and similarities between missions to the Moon and Mars, with Phil arguing that the engineering difficulties are more similar than the distances suggest. David shared updates on the Space Show's funding status, noting they are currently at 35% of their annual target. David took the opportunity to again ask listeners to support The Space Show with donations prior to the end of the year. Previous donation instructions have been provided so they are not repeated here but if one requests assistance or has questions, they can reach out to David at drspace@thespaceshow.com.David and the team discussed betting on the likelihood of Artemis III with the Program of Record making it to the Moon and back within the 2028 timeline. We talked about betting on the Polymarket, the legality facing Americans as its against the law with David wondering how people get around and do it given he hears about it all the time on various podcasts. It was suggested that Polymarket users might be using a VPN to hide their location. David said he would do some research on it for the Tuesday, Dec. 30 program, mainly out of his curiosity. John Jossy inquired about posting Marshall's papers on space mirrors and space settlements on David's blog. (Note: There is now a regulated US version of the Polymarket but you have to apply to use it and their may be a waiting list. You can find out more with a Google or AI Search for legal ways for US citizens to engage in the Polymarket).The Team wished all a Happy New Year and encouraged listeners to support The Space Show during this year's campaign.Special thanks to our sponsors:Northrup Grumman, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

We kick off 2026 by getting our feet on the ground with a powerhouse Capricorn lineup, then rocket into an Aquarian surge that rewards bold ideas, smart networks, and future-first thinking. From late January into mid-February, Venus, the Sun, Mercury, and Mars flood Aquarius while Uranus turns direct, opening a corridor for collaboration, tech leaps, and community-driven experiments. Then comes the twist: an Aquarius new moon colliding with a solar eclipse on February 17, plus Mercury retrograde in Pisces starting February 26. Translation: release and recalibrate rather than launch; guard your bandwidth and refine the message behind the mission.We dig into the macro shifts shaping the tone of the year: Neptune leaves Pisces for Aries, Saturn follows into Aries on February 13, and Jupiter stations direct on March 11. Expect a cultural mood swing from foggy to fiery, from passive to proactive. We map the safest windows to move, invest, travel, or pause, and we explain why the back half of January and the Spring Equinox window are your cleanest green lights. March adds depth and stakes with Mars entering Pisces and a Virgo full moon lunar eclipse on March 3 that spotlights health, systems, and the practical side of healing. By March 20, Mercury turns direct and the Sun charges into Aries, cueing an all-planets-direct runway into early May.You'll also get clear, concise guidance for every zodiac sign, from Aries breakthroughs and Aquarius lift-offs to Virgo resets and Pisces spiritual upgrades. If you've been waiting for permission to try something different, the cosmos offers both courage and caution: build the framework, gather the right people, then move with heart and precision when the lights go green. Press play to plan Q1 2026 with confidence, avoid the eclipse traps, and time your next big move with cosmic precision.Summary of January-March 2026 Astrology• Capricorn cluster front-loads planning and money mindset• Aquarian wave mid-late January fuels collaboration and launches• Solar eclipse on 17 February signals release, not initiation• Mercury retrograde in Pisces from 26 February to 20 March• Virgo lunar eclipse on 3 March highlights health and systems• Jupiter direct on 11 March restores optimism and growth• Spring Equinox and Mercury direct mark go-time• Sign-by-sign forecasts for Q1 2026 If this was helpful, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review—it helps more seekers find their timing.Support the show

It is possible the object creating the Tunguska event in Russia 1908 which knocked down 80 million trees over an area about twice the size of New York City was a fragment of a comet or asteroid. The International Asteroid Warning Network 2025 campaign to track Comet 3L/Atlas prepares the worlds observatories for the eventual time when a comet fragment has our number on it.

Veteran astrologer and Mystical Messages podcast host Hilary Harley outlines what to expect for the first month of 2026.  January finds us shifting from a deep clearing and cleansing passage into wild, fast-paced energy.  The end of 2025 and first two weeks of January bring a close to dominant water and earth energies.  Just after mid-month, fully 5 out of 10 planets will be cycling through Aquarius:  The Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and Pluto!  Aquarius is the sign of connectivity, ideas, and frequency.  It moves faster than lightning.  The sign of innovation and humanitarian good will draws our focus toward what is possible and best for everyone.  Old restraints and power dynamics are over and done now.  Break the mold and be open to the unusual, non-mainstream and avant garde. Hold on to your hat when spiritual Neptune moves into fiery Aries on January 26th.  Cycling through the first sign of the zodiac until 2039, Neptune acts, moves and engages based on intuitive, soulful impulse.  It is not shy or reticent.  In Aries, Neptune follows divine downloads and directives then asks questions later!  We are in for one wild and exciting ride!

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, it was erroneously believed that there were "canals" on the planet Mars. These were a network of long straight lines in the equatorial regions from 60° north to 60° south latitude on Mars, observed by astronomers using early telescopes without photography. They were first described by the Italian astronomer Giovanni Schiaparelli during the opposition of 1877, and attested to by later observers. Schiaparelli called these canali ("channels"), which was mistranslated into English as "canals". The Irish astronomer Charles E. Burton made some of the earliest drawings of straight-line features on Mars, although his drawings did not match Schiaparelli's.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore significant advancements in space exploration and innovative scientific projects.Perseverance Rover's New JourneyAfter nearly five years on Mars, NASA's Perseverance Rover is on the move again, heading to a new site on the rim of Jezero Crater named Lac du Charm. Having traversed over 40 kilometres and collected vital rock core samples, the rover is undergoing extensive evaluations to ensure its longevity, with engineers confident it can operate until at least 2031. We discuss the rover's advanced autonomous driving capabilities and its mission to uncover signs of past microbial life.Fashion Meets Science: Microbial FabricsA groundbreaking project is set to merge fashion and science by sending specially designed fabrics made from bacteria into space. These innovative materials will change colour in response to radiation exposure, potentially protecting astronauts from harmful levels of UV radiation and offering new applications for skin cancer prevention on Earth. Lead researcher Giles Ballet shares insights into how this technology could revolutionise both space exploration and everyday fashion.Expedition 73 Crew ReturnsThe Expedition 73 astronauts have safely returned to Earth after an eight-month mission aboard the International Space Station. Their journey has contributed to over 250 experiments, including advancements in bioprinting and remote robotic operations. We also discuss the implications of recent challenges faced by Russia's manned space program.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesJournal of ScienceNASA ReportsNature CommunicationsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 151 for broadcast on 24 December 2025(00:00:47) NASA's Perseverance Rover begins a new journey on Mars(00:12:30) Innovative microbial fabrics set to be tested in space(00:19:15) Expedition 73 crew returns safely to Earth after eight months in orbit(00:24:05) New study suggests humans have been using fire for 400,000 years(00:27:30) Technology tips for buying the right printer for your needs
