Each year, NASA’s Innovative Advanced Concepts program (NIAC) funds visionary ideas that could shape the future of space exploration. In this first of two episodes from the 2025 NIAC Symposium in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, Planetary Radio host Sarah Al-Ahmed introduces some of the concepts presented at this year’s event. You’ll hear from Martin Bermudez and Josh Simpson from Skyeports LLC. Bermudez is the company’s CEO and principal investigator for the LUNGS Project, and Simpson is a glass artist and co-investigator. Together, their team is exploring how to build glass-blown lunar habitats from melted Moon dust. You’ll also meet Christine Gregg, research engineer at NASA’s Ames Research Center, who’s developing architected metamaterials to stabilize giant space structures. And finally, John Mather, Nobel laureate and senior astrophysicist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, shares his team’s work on an inflatable starshade that could help us see Earth-like worlds around distant stars. Then stick around for What’s Up with Dr. Bruce Betts, chief scientist of The Planetary Society.

It's part 2 of our dive into the Insect Apocalypse, with our good friend Dr. Jason Dombroskie from the Cornell University Insect Collection!In this part, Jason fills us in on the drivers of the Insect Apocalypse and - most importantly - what we can do about it.This episode was recorded on August 21, 2025 at Rattlesnake Hill Wildlife Management Area in Dalton, NY.. Episode NotesDuring the episode, we made the claim that 40 million acres of the US is lawn, and that that area is equal to all of the country's National Parks put together. True? Well, sort of. The claim that the U.S. has about 40 million acres of lawn—roughly equal to all our national parks combined—is only partly true. A NASA-funded study led by Cristina Milesi estimated that turfgrass covers about 128,000 km² (≈31 million acres) of the continental U.S., making it the largest irrigated “crop” in the country (Milesi et al., Environmental Management, 2005; NASA Earth Observatory). Later analyses and popular summaries often round that up to ≈40 million acres (e.g., Scienceline, 2011; LawnStarter, 2023). By comparison, the total land area of all officially designated U.S. National Parks is about 52.4 million acres, while the entire National Park System—which also includes monuments, preserves, and historic sites—covers about 85 million acres (National Park Service, 2024). So while lawns and parks occupy areas of similar magnitude, lawns do not actually equal or exceed the combined area of the national parks. Is it better to mulch leaves on your lawn or leave them be? Here's what we found: It's generally best to mulch your leaves with a mower rather than rake or remove them. Research from Michigan State University found that mowing leaves into small pieces allows them to decompose quickly, returning nutrients to the soil and reducing weeds like dandelions and crabgrass (MSU Extension, “Don't rake leaves — mulch them into your lawn”, 2012). Cornell University studies similarly show that mulched leaves improve soil structure, moisture retention, and microbial activity (Cornell Cooperative Extension, “Leaf Mulching: A Sustainable Alternative”, 2019). However, in garden beds, wooded edges, or under shrubs, it's often better to leave leaves whole, since they provide winter habitat for butterflies, bees, and other invertebrates that overwinter in leaf litter (National Wildlife Federation, “Leave the Leaves for Wildlife”, 2020). The ideal approach is a mix: mow-mulch leaves on grassy areas for turf health and leave them intact where they naturally fall to support biodiversity and soil ecology.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore groundbreaking discoveries that reshape our understanding of Mars, the Moon, and the Milky Way Galaxy.Ancient Oceans on Mars: Geological Evidence RevealedA new study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters presents compelling geological evidence that Mars' Northern Hemisphere was once home to a vast ocean. Lead author Chris from the University of Arkansas discusses how comparisons between river rocks on Earth and Martian sediment reveal ancient river deltas and backwater zones, suggesting that liquid water flowed on the Red Planet, increasing the possibility of past life. This episode delves into the processes of sedimentation and erosion that shaped Mars' landscape, providing insights into its watery past.The Moon's South Pole-Aitken Basin: Unveiling Impact MysteriesA fresh analysis of the Moon's largest impact crater, the South Pole-Aitken Basin, sheds light on its formation and the Moon's geological history. Researchers have discovered that this massive crater's shape indicates an impact from the north, challenging previous assumptions. As the Artemis missions prepare to land near this basin, they will have the opportunity to study material excavated from the lunar interior, potentially unlocking secrets about the Moon's evolution and the asymmetries in its crust.Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope: Mapping the Milky WayNASA's upcoming Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope is set to revolutionise our understanding of the Milky Way's interstellar medium. This mission will map around 20 billion stars, using infrared light to penetrate the dust clouds obscuring our view. Chief investigator Catherine Zucker explains how this data will refine our models of star formation and the galaxy's structure, while also addressing the ongoing mysteries of galactic spiral patterns and their role in star birth.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesGeophysical Research Lettershttps://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/19448007Naturehttps://www.nature.com/natureNASA Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescopehttps://roman.gsfc.nasa.gov/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Ancient Oceans on Mars: Geological Evidence RevealedThe Moon's South Pole-Aitken Basin: Unveiling Impact MysteriesNancy Chris Roman Space Telescope: Mapping the Milky Way(00:00) Evidence of ancient oceans on Mars(10:15) New insights into the Moon's largest impact crater(19:30) The upcoming Nancy Chris Roman Space Telescope mission(27:00) Science Robert: Heatwaves and their impact on global mortality
In an odd turn of events, officials have revealed unusual new details about an aircraft crash that occurred near Area 51 in late September. The crash, initially described as minor and non-fatal, has since taken a strange turn after investigators reportedly discovered “tampering” at the site, which includes the discovery of objects that included an “inert training bomb body” and aircraft material of "unknown origin." This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at the latest news about the ongoing investigation, as well as the strange history involving several of the key players involved in the investigation into the mysterious crash near America's most controversial high-security facility.

Bart Sibrel is an American conspiracy theorist and filmmaker known for his belief that the Apollo Moon landings were faked. He is a prominent figure in the moon-landing denial movement and has produced several films promoting this idea. Sibrel's major claims and activitiesFilms: Sibrel's most notable works are the films A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Moon (2001) and Astronauts Gone Wild: An Investigation Into the Authenticity of the Moon Landings (2004). In these pseudo-documentaries, he uses what he claims is "leaked" NASA footage and other supposed inconsistencies to argue the landings were staged.Confronting astronauts: As part of his investigations, Sibrel has repeatedly accosted and confronted Apollo astronauts, including Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, and Eugene Cernan. He would ask them to swear on a Bible that they walked on the Moon.The Buzz Aldrin incident: In 2002, outside a hotel in Beverly Hills, Sibrel confronted Buzz Aldrin and called him "a coward and a liar and a thief" for not swearing on the Bible. Aldrin responded by punching Sibrel in the face, an incident that gained significant media attention. No criminal charges were filed against Aldrin.Underlying claims: Sibrel points to various discredited claims to support his theory, including:Inconsistencies in shadows: He has claimed that shadows in Apollo photographs are not parallel, which he says indicates multiple light sources in a studio setting. This ignores the scattering and reflection of light from the lunar surface.Radiation from the Van Allen belt: Sibrel argues that astronauts could not have survived the trip through the intense radiation of the Van Allen belt. In reality, the Apollo crew passed through the belts in a relatively short period, and their exposure was well within safe limits.Technological limitations: He alleges that 1960s technology was not advanced enough to land on the Moon. This claim is a key point in his films and a common argument among deniers. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
President Trump returned to the United States after and monumental trip to the Middle East. After speaking to the Knesset in Israel as hostages were returned to their loved ones, the president flew to Egypt to meet with Arab leaders to sign the peace deal and end the war in Gaza. President Trump came home just in time to honor Charlie Kirk posthumously with the Presidential Medal of Freedom award. Jim McLaughlin is here to discuss President Trump's approval and where we stand in the upcoming Governor's races. In New Jersey, Jack Ciattarelli is booming with tons of momentum, having been endorsed by President Trump he is out there everyday doing events and meeting people. Mikie Sherrill on the other hand is hiding much like Kamala Harris. With a scandal at the Navy and her shady stock trading practices, Sherril is getting bombarded with bad press. In Virginia, Republicans are set to sweep the race as Abigail Spanberger is sticking by jay Jones and his homicidal fantasies. In New York, radical Socialist Zohran Mamdani is set to be the new Mayor of New York as Republicans have failed to put a good candidate forward. Interesting how all the Democrats in these races are riddled with scandal and radicalism. All the while, Chuck Schumer makes average Americans suffer so he can play politics in Congress.

Buckle up, because today's episode launch is a special one. My conversation with Ansel Brown is so unique, and I couldn't be more excited to release it into the world. During our chat, Ansel talked about his comeback to music and his incredible experiences with NASA as a songwriter and artist. I truly loved all the stories Ansel shared, so I hope you have a blast listening. My biggest takeaway is that you never know how one song could change your life forever.Are you enjoying Write on Track? Do you have a topic suggestion for an episode? Would you like to be a guest?

Send us a textGrief has a way of focusing the lens on what actually matters: how someone lived, how they treated those who couldn't fight back, and what they stood for even when it was unpopular. My dad never reffed, but he taught me everything about making life's hardest decisions—kindness first, integrity always, and the courage to do the hard right thing when it counts.We trace a life well lived: European trips, science missions to Alaska and Hawaii, a deep love of national parks, and a New Yorker's unlikely passion for country line dancing that led to a 30–year romance. We revisit tossing a baseball on city streets, marathon training before dawn, and the quiet discipline that turns effort into outcome. We share how encyclopedias on the floor, a giant Webster's dictionary, and early computers turned learning disabilities into a path forward—fueling concise communication, clear thinking, and the confidence to advocate. You'll hear about a 37–year career at Queensborough Community College, summers at NASA, an 1,100–page dissertation on wave theory, and a refusal to soften standards just to keep the peace. The throughline is leadership: empathy without condescension, accountability without cruelty, and match control rooted in respect and the spirit of the game.There's family history and service, too: caregiving after Holocaust loss, showing up for elders, single fatherhood with PTA meetings and homemade lasagna, and even building one of the first elementary school computer labs—so kids could have opportunities he never had. The takeaway is simple: love unconditionally, stay curious, work past comfort, and anchor your choices in honor. That's the playbook we use on the field and at home, and it's the legacy we hope to live up to—one “good man” moment at a time.If this story resonates, share it with someone who taught you a hard lesson with a gentle hand.

Michel identifies a "deficit hawk coalition" split between deficit hawks (agnostic on revenues/spending) and budget hawks (concerned with government size), advocating for spending cuts to solve the crisis. Entitlement programs like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid are the root of fiscal problems. 1045-1100 The US Fiscal Crisis: Spending Cuts Are the Only Way Out GUEST NAME: Adam Michel Adam Michel, director of tax policy at the Cato Institute, discusses the US fiscal crisis stemming from large deficits and overwhelming debt.

印度人也是按照先绕后落的顺序计划的。那么好了,下一步就是派探测器可控着陆,而不是撞上去。于是有了月船2号,这家伙就携带着一个着陆器,还带了一个小的月球车。当然,这个月球车很小,只有27公斤重,电源功率只有50瓦。相比之下玉兔号就大了不少,足有136公斤。这东西依然是国际合作的产物。本来印度和俄国人合作,月球车和着陆器是俄国人去做,拉沃契金设计局曾经干过这种事,按理说是不难。不过后来俄国人退出了,没办法,这个探测器还得印度人自己来。另外,着陆到月球表面,离不开深空测控网络,印度人虽然也建造了几个大天线,无奈没有全天候的监控能力,月亮要是落山了,无线电信号就不通了,于是他们求美国人帮忙,靠NASA的深空网络来进行测控,欧美的朋友不帮忙,很多事儿还真不好办。另外,探测器变大了,就得换更大的火箭。这次印度人用的是“地球同步运载火箭3型”。这个火箭长得比较像欧美的风格。装了两根胖胖的固体助推器,中间芯级火箭用的是偏二甲肼+联胺,上面级用的是氢氧火箭。近地轨道运载能力达到8吨,同步转移轨道运载能力是4吨。月船二号着陆器和轨道器的总重量是3.8吨。火箭的发射能力实在是有点勉强。
Billy Carson takes us deep into the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern science, revealing how manifestation actually works at the cellular level. From his near-death experience in Turkey to building multiple million-dollar companies, Carson shares the precise formula he's used to transform his life: conscious thought × action = manifestation. He explains how trauma stored in your body blocks abundance, why forgiveness is the first step to clearing energetic space, and how NASA-level science proves we're living in a fractal holographic universe where your words and emotions literally reshape reality. This isn't metaphysical theory—it's quantum physics meeting ancient Sumerian tablets, with practical steps you can implement today.Forbidden Knowledge TVWoke Doesn't Mean BrokeFractal Holographic Universe: The Matrix Code Revealed4biddenknowledge Conscious AwardsIn this episode you will:Discover the scientific formula for manifestation that ancient civilizations knew and modern quantum physics confirms—complete with the exact affirmations that rewrite your DNA in 21 days.Break free from ancestral trauma encoded in your epigenetics by understanding how negative patterns pass through generations and the meditation practice that stops the cycle.Transform your relationship with money by getting on its frequency instead of chasing it—the same strategy Carson used to go from homeless on a Miami beach to building multimillion-dollar tech companies.Unlock the power of forgiveness to clear trauma stored in your cells that's blocking your manifestation abilities and keeping you stuck in survival mode.Master the energy exchange that determines your success in every room you enter, from business meetings to intimate relationships, by shifting your emotional frequency in under 60 seconds.For more information go to https://lewishowes.com/1835For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Lewis Howes (Solo) – greatness.lnk.to/1822SCPrice Pritchett – greatness.lnk.to/1821SCDr. Joe Dispenza – greatness.lnk.to/1809SC Get more from Lewis!

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover the latest revelations in astrophysics, including the intriguing prospect of supermassive dark stars, Australia's ambitious lunar rover mission, and fresh insights into the formation of our solar system.Supermassive Dark Stars: A New Cosmic DiscoveryAstronomers have identified potential candidates for a new type of star in the early universe, known as supermassive dark stars. Recent observations from the Webb Space Telescope suggest that these stars, primarily composed of hydrogen and helium, are supported against gravitational collapse by dark matter. This episode delves into how these dark stars could help explain the existence of supermassive black holes and the unexpectedly bright distant galaxies observed by Webb. With the possibility of a smoking gun signature in their spectra, the implications of this discovery could reshape our understanding of dark matter and stellar evolution.Australia's Lunar Rover Mission: A Step Towards the MoonWork is underway on Australia's first lunar rover, set to launch as part of NASA's Artemis programme. This 20-kilogram robotic vehicle, developed by the Queensland University of Technology, will explore lunar geology and contribute to establishing a sustainable human presence on the Moon. The episode covers the rover's design, mission objectives, and the collaborative efforts between Australian institutions and NASA to advance lunar exploration.Piecing Together the Early Solar SystemNew research published in Science Advances reveals that the early solar system was more chaotic than previously thought, with planets forming from recycled fragments of shattered bodies rather than pristine materials. This episode discusses the violent origins of our solar system and how high-energy collisions influenced the development of planetary cores, ultimately shaping the celestial bodies we know today.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesJournal of Physical Review Lettershttps://journals.aps.org/prl/Science Advanceshttps://www.science.org/journal/sciadvBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Supermassive Dark Stars: A New Cosmic DiscoveryAustralia's Lunar Rover Mission: A Step Towards the MoonPiecing Together the Early Solar System(00:00) The potential discovery of supermassive dark stars(10:15) Australia's new lunar rover mission details(18:45) New findings on the chaotic origins of the solar system(25:30) Skywatch for October: Meteor showers and celestial highlights

50 years ago scientists found that Chlorofluorocarbons or CFC chemicals in widespread use in refrigeration, air conditioning , and hair spray were beginning to damage the ozone layer in the Earth's stratosphere which blocks harmful Solar UVB radiation from reaching the surface. The world wide response was the Montreal Protocol banning these chemicals from being released into the atmosphere. It saved millions of humans from dying of skin cancer. Satellite ashes are a new threat to the protective ozone layer.
Federal agencies' latest status updates on how they're using artificial intelligence reveal persistent barriers and variability on where agencies stand with ”high-impact” use cases. The release of the 2025 AI compliance plans offers one of the first in-depth glimpses at how federal agencies are addressing issues of AI risk management, technical capacity and workforce readiness under the second Trump administration. Those documents, which were required under the Trump administration's AI governance memo to agencies, were supposed to be released publicly by Sept. 30. As of publication time, FedScoop located roughly 20 plans and 14 strategies across 22 agencies. For nine of the roughly two dozen Chief Financial Officers Act agencies, FedScoop was unable to find either a plan or a strategy. The U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, meanwhile, produced only strategies. FedScoop and DefenseScoop attempted to contact the CFO Act agencies that didn't produce both documents, but the agencies either didn't respond or didn't provide the documents. Two of those agencies, NASA and the Justice Department, noted the government shutdown in their responses, and both the DOJ and Department of Defense indicated they were working to post at a later date. Agencies were also required to submit AI strategies for the first time this year. Those documents contain some of the same information as the compliance documents, including plans to train the workforce, examples of use cases, and systems for governance. The compliance plans, meanwhile, which are in their second year, have changed only slightly from their previous iterations, with some agencies showing progress on their implementation of the technology and risk management practices. A top Senate Democrat introduced legislation Thursday to extend and rename an expired information-sharing law, and make it retroactive to cover the lapse that began Oct. 1. Michigan Sen. Gary Peters, the ranking member of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, introduced the Protecting America from Cyber Threats (PACT) Act, to replace the expired Cybersecurity and Information Sharing Act of 2015 (CISA 2015) that has provided liability protections for organizations that share cyber threat data with each other and the federal government. Industry groups and cyber professionals have called those protections vital, sometimes describing the 2015 law as the most successful cyber legislation ever passed. The 2015 law shares an acronym with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, which some Republicans — including the chairman of Peters' panel, Rand Paul of Kentucky — have accused of engaging in social media censorship. As CISA 2015 has lapsed and Peters has tried to renew it, “some people think that's a reauthorization of the agency,” Peters told reporters Thursday in explaining the new bill name.

We live in a loud world that's getting louder. We encounter noise all around us—from the chatter of polite conversations, to street noise in a big city, to the constant intrusion of the dings of notifications. But what is all of this noise doing to us, and what does it mean to find quiet in the midst of it? In fact, what is silence, anyway? How can it affect our minds, our bodies, and our relationships?

News broke this week that rocks picked up by NASA's Perseverance rover on Mars may have found chemical signatures left by living organisms. With the search for life on the red planet capturing our imaginations for decades, Victoria Gill is joined by science journalist Jonathan Amos to look at what we know about the history of life on Mars, and what could be different about this discovery.As commemorations take place this week for the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, we hear about the project helping to protect birds in New York from the effects of a giant annual light display in memory of the victims of the tragedy.Dr Andrew Farnsworth, from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, tells us how they're working with the organisers of the Tribute in Light memorial to help save the lives of a wide range of birds.Victoria is joined by managing editor of the New Scientist, Penny Sarchet, to look through this week's most exciting scientific discoveries.And in our series profiling the six books shortlisted for this year's Royal Society Trivedi Book Prize, we speak to neuroscientist and clinical neurologist Professor Masud Husain about his book Our Brains, Our Selves, and what his encounters with patients reveal about how our brains make up who we are.Presenter: Victoria Gill Producers: Clare Salisbury, Dan Welsh, Jonathan Blackwell, Tim Dodd Editor: Martin Smith

President Trump is receiving international praise for the absolutely historic peace deal he accomplished in Gaza. While maintaining his support for Israel and showing his respect and appreciation for the surrounding Arab nations, president Trump brought a coalition of nations together to finally bring peace to Gaza. With both sides celebrating this accomplishment, many are calling for him to win the Nobel peace prize, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The government shutdown continues as Democrats continue to play politics. This is the opportunity for Republicans to go on offense with appropriations and hold Democrats feet to fire. Chuck Schumer seems gleeful at the idea of federal workers not getting paid as he said "everyday gets better and better for us." California continues to produce unhinged Democrats, as the leading Gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter, once poured scalding hot mashed potatoes on her ex-husband's head. She also berates her staff and can't answer media questions. No Democrat has asked Jay Jones to step down in Virginia after his homicidal fantasy has come to light. So much going on and this week had some big winners and some big losers. Our panel unpacks it all.

On October 6, 2025, hundreds of space advocates from across the United States joined The Planetary Society and 20 partner organizations on Capitol Hill to deliver one clear message: protect NASA’s science budget. We begin with Ari Koeppel, AAAS Science & Technology Policy Fellow and Space Policy Intern at The Planetary Society, who shares why this moment matters for scientists facing uncertainty about their future. Then Britney Schmidt, planetary scientist at Cornell University and member of The Planetary Society’s Board of Directors, calls in from Washington, D.C., to share what it’s like on the ground as hundreds of advocates come together to defend the future of space science. Next, we take you to the press conference on the steps of the U.S. Capitol, featuring Bill Nye, CEO of The Planetary Society, Representative Glenn Ivey of Maryland’s 4th District, Marcel Agüeros, president-elect of the American Astronomical Society, and Brandon Jones, President of the American Geophysical Union. Together, they urge Congress to restore NASA’s science funding and maintain the United States' leadership in discovery. We close with Casey Dreier, chief of space policy at The Planetary Society, reflecting on the power of grassroots advocacy and what comes next for the Save NASA Science campaign. Finally, in What’s Up, Bruce Betts, The Planetary Society’s chief scientist, joins host Sarah Al-Ahmed to look ahead, exploring the great mysteries we could solve in the coming years if we continue to invest in space science.

There's something circling us.Something that doesn't belong. Long before the first satellite was ever launched, stories began to surface of a dark shape drifting silently above the world—a cold and patient witness in orbit. Some said Tesla heard its whisper in his Colorado lab. Others claimed it echoed our own voices back from the void, like a ghost trying to mimic the living. Over the decades, every strange signal, every shadow on a radar, and every photo of tumbling debris became a new chapter in its myth. They called it The Black Knight Satellite—a relic of forgotten gods, or maybe something older still. In this episode, the Sofa King Podcast turns its telescopes toward the unknown. We sift through the static and half-truths—Tesla's phantom signals, Duncan Lunan's alien star maps, the 1998 NASA photos that refused to stay silent—to see if there's anything real beneath the layers of obsession and noise. Maybe it's just a blanket of metal and myth, caught in orbit and fueled by human imagination.Or maybe it's been watching all along,waiting for us to finally notice. Listen. Learn. Laugh. Question everything.
