Podcasts about Meteorite

'The Conversation' To celebrate the first year of the podcast series 'Are We Nearly There Yet?' we have a special conversation between one of the nuclear industry's newest recruits and one of it's earliest pioneers. Dr Tim Gregory is a geologist who did a PhD in cosmochemistry. He became a meteorite scientist at the University of Bristol and the British Geological Survey until 2020 when he joined the National Nuclear Laboratory at Sellafield Ltd as a nuclear analytical chemist.  He published his popular science book, ‘Meteorite' in 2020.  Tim is a scientist, an author and a speaker having appeared on television and radio.  His own episode of 'Are We Nearly There Yet?' can be found here: https://www.podbean.com/ew/pb-gkez5-105b3cf Professor Juan Matthews joined the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority at Harwell in 1962 as a Scientific Assistant in the Metallurgy Division. He pioneered uranium fuel for the UK's prototype Advanced Gas-cooled Reactor at Windscale before doing a physics degree at Surrey. He has worked on plutonium fuels for the UK's Fast Reactor programme.  He became Programme Manager for General Nuclear Safety and Fast Reactors.  He was Regional Director for Asia Pacific for AEA Technology plc, based in Japan with operations also in South Korea, Hong Kong, China, Singapore. This is a fascinating conversation. For more information about Dr Tim Gregory and his book, ‘Meteorite', see: https://www.tim-gregory.co.uk/ For more information about Prof. Juan Matthews see: https://www.linkedin.com/in/juan-matthews-518313/

A team of astronomers find that as many as 14 comets which came to less than 4 times the Moon's distance from us as long as 4,000 years ago are detectable as meteor showers in the present era. These results make us aware of potentially hazardous comets from the past which could come into our space again in the future.

Dr Tim Gregory is an analytical nuclear chemist working at the National Nuclear Laboratory, based on the Sellafield site. He has experience as a meteorite scientist and is active in outreach, talking in schools and on the BBC sharing his passion about space and science. Tim lives in Cumbria and in his free time likes to go running, hiking, canoeing, and practises photography in the country.   Tim grew up in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire with his mum and sister. In his younger years he developed a passion for science and nature. In high school, a lot of his interests in science were stamped out as he felt unable to share his passion with anyone. Tim then went on to 6th form to do his A-levels where his passion for science returned meeting people who had a shared interest.   Tim then went on to study an integrated masters at Manchester in Geology with Planetory Science. During his studies, he completed a two and a half-month internship in Houston, Texas, at the NASA Johnson's space centre studying meteorites. During his time in Manchester, Tim volunteered at the Manchester Museum where he discovered he had a knack on how to explain things in layman's terms to the visitors about rocks.   Tim on to study for a PhD in Cosmochemistry at the University of Bristol. Whilst here, Tim went into schools to teach geology days and went to local organisation to present too and he soon realised he had a natural ability to present. He was also successful in securing one of twelve places on a BBC 2 programme called Astronauts where he made it to the final which included him being put in a centrifuge and spun at 4.5G for ten minutes! The TV programme gave him the opportunity to present twice on the ‘Sky at Night'. Tim's also presented on BBC 4 and BBC Radio Bristol.   Tim took a sideways step into nuclear and is continued to be blown away by science.   Tim has also published a book called ‘Meteorite'.   For more information visit: https://www.tim-gregory.co.uk

Recently people from all over the world met in Italy to discuss ways that humans can prepare for the unlikely, but not impossible, situation that an object is on an impact trajectory with planet Earth. They were were presented with a hypothetical asteroid threat. A month after its discovery the hypothetical asteroid comes about 18 million miles from us . It continues to be observed for another month with every new observation making it appear to have a greater chance of colliding with mother Earth about 7 years hence. This is where the participants are left. At this point they don't know its exact size, chemical composition, if it will collide with us or not, and if it does the spot of impact on Earth. They are then charged with the task of obtaining needed observations and to develop a strategy to deal with the potential impact.

Asteroid hunters have discovered a curious object. It appears likely to be either a rock ejected from the Moon or a piece of space junk from a human designed mission to the Moon. Observations which reveal how this tiny object is effected by Sun light could tells us if it is a natural or man made object.

An unexpected visitor dropped in on a Japanese city on January 7th of 1996: a space rock. It blazed across eastern Japan, forming a bright streak in the late-afternoon sky. It also created a sonic boom loud enough to rattle doors and dishes and send residents outside to see what was going on. At an altitude of about 15 miles, the rock exploded. Some of the debris formed a white cloud in the sky. But small rocky fragments splashed across hundreds of square miles. One of them even punched a hole in the roof of a car-repair business in the city of Tsukuba. Meteorite hunters fanned out across the countryside to look for those fragments. They found less than two pounds of them. The largest weighed just a few ounces. Together, they were called the Tsukuba meteorite. Some pieces were found quickly, so scientists began taking a look at them just hours after they fell to Earth. The scientists concluded that the original rock was a member of the most common class of meteorites. It consisted of small blobs of rock that melted, then cooled and solidified, when the solar system was quite young. Those blobs were cemented together by bits of rock and metal, with a high amount of iron. The original rock was blasted off the surface of a larger space rock. The chip orbited the Sun for millions of years before it ran into Earth — creating an amazing lightshow over Japan 25 years ago today. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

In western Australia, rock samples and maps of the local geology obtained while exploring for gold show evidence of a 3 mile diameter meteor crater which features a small central pucker like protrusion.

Meteorites are like history books that fall from the sky and deliver chemical information about the early solar system.

David J. West and filmmaker Chris Ernst, as they discuss news articles which truly are food for thought. Could human be a combination of physical matter and an electromagnetic field? What of the recent discovery of a metallic mass the size of the island of Hawaii beneath the moon’s largest crater? Why is it not resting in the moon’s mantle but embedded 300 kilometers beneath the surface? What if schizophrenia can be transmitted by the microorganisms in the human gut?The source of the Orgueil meteorite found in France in 1864 has been a controversy since its discovery. What of the recent claim by Russian scientists that they have indisputable proof that the fossilized bacteria within the meteorite came from a planet perhaps older than earth?And more...

In this episode of Cool Science Radio Tim Gregory who has written Meteorite: How Stones from Outer Space Made Our World is the guest. Gregory explores the world of meteorites to uncover new insights into what our solar system was like before our sun became a star, into the forging of our planet, and into the emergence of life on it. Humans have long looked to the skies for answers to big questions. Meteorite reveals how science is finally arriving at those answers.

With just one foot out the door of the Cinnabar Gym, a manic Bill whisks Joshua & Mr. Mime away to visit his friend Celio out in the Sevii Islands. Once there, they embark on the "railroadiest of railroads," a series of chained fetch quests that must be done before the islands open up and they can return to the mainland to take on the final Gym Leader. First, the trainers must deliver a Meteorite to the islands' Game Corner, then take on a biker gang, rescue a lost child (aptly named "Lostelle"), climb a mountain, and get the islands' wifi booted up. Will all of their Pokémon survive the tropical trip, or will there be a sad sea shanty to sing? And will Giovanni finally put up a real fight?

Recently, my wife and I saw a beautiful, bright, green, meteor fireball streaking across the western New Mexico night sky. Such sightings by some UFO enthusiasts , have been advanced as the best observations of alien spacecraft. Other observers have explained this phenomena as being sightings of secret American or Russian spy devices.

If there's one thing that everyone knows about dinosaurs it is that they are extinct. And of course this is to a degree quite wrong since birds are dinosaurs and are very much alive. Still, that Tyrannosaurus, Diplodocus, Stegosaurus and the rest are long gone is well known but the scientific (and often very unscientific) arguments about exactly what killed them off have been a source of discussion for over a century. Here we have a quick stroll through some of those ideas and deal with the prime suspect of the last 30 years an impact from outer space. Happily, we have the Bad Astronomer himself, Phil Plait, as our guest so the questions go both ways on dinosaurs and asteroids. We hope you enjoy the cold open.

In 1908, in the middle of the Siberian wilderness, near the Tunguska River, an explosion took place which was equivalent in size to the detonation of a 5 megaton nuclear bomb.  But it wasn’t a nuclear bomb. Such things didn’t even exist then. It was a mystery that scientists are still trying to figure out today.  Learn more about the Tunguska Event on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. http://yourbrainonfacts.com/ -------------------------------- Executive Producer James Makkyla Become a supporter on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/everythingeverywhere Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/everythingeverywhere/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/everywheretrip Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/EEDailyPodcast/ Website: https://everything-everywhere.com/everything-everywhere-daily-podcast/

Approximately 100 million metric tons of mostly sand grained sized space dust enters the Earth's atmosphere every day. Occasionally, larger pieces become fireball meteors which can even be seen in the daytime as they streak across the sky. Sometimes one explodes and showers the ground with meteorites. Finding one of them can be fun and rarely a meteorite can be worth more than its weight in gold.

In the course of doing research for shows, I often come across interesting facts that wouldn’t really make for an entire episode. They are really interesting, but I’m not sure how I could turn it into even a short daily podcast like this one.  So, the solution was to create an episode where I could just randomly put all these loose ends together.  With that, I bring to you my first potpourri show, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily. https://Everything-Everywhere.com/CuriosityStream -------------------------------- Executive Producer James Makkyla Become a supporter on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/everythingeverywhere Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/everythingeverywhere/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/everywheretrip Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/EEDailyPodcast/ Website: https://everything-everywhere.com/everything-everywhere-daily-podcast/

Asteroid 2008 TC3 is the only asteroid which was observed to be hurtling between planets, flying through our atmosphere, and pieces of it found to be lying on the Earth's Surface. NASA funded, Catalina Sky Survey team member, Richard Kowalski discovered it 20 hours before it hit. Airline pilots spotted it flying through the sky. Eventually, searchers were rewarded with pieces of it on the sands of the Sudanese desert.

Recently, Dr. Stephanie C. Werner of the University of Oslo in Norway and her colleagues have discovered the source of some of the Martian meteorites found on Earth. It is the 34 mile diameter Mojave Crater on Mars. The debris ejected from this impact event about 5 million years ago, orbited the Sun until one of the pieces fell to Earth and was discovered by humans in Antarctica.

In the cold deserts of Antarctica nature collects meteorites as ice sheets carrying space rocks are pushed up against mountains. High speed winds remove the ice leaving dozens to hundreds of meteorites stranded in an area often as small as a football field.

The history of our part of the Universe is written with a fine point in the space rocks which orbit our Sun. Some of them carry small grains of material from the cloud of gas and dust from which our solar system formed. They also carry clocks. Naturally occurring radio active potassium in space rocks decays into argon gas atoms which are trapped until the rock becomes molten. By measuring the potassium to argon ratio, Dr. Tim Swindle of the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Laboratory is able to determine the length of time since meteorites have solidified after an impact event.
