Podcasts about Solar System

A solar-system-level disaster wipes out four planetary systems, humanity clings to life in space colonies, and Zion stands as the last planet that can still sustain people. Then come the “Victims” and the only real answer is a handful of towering mechanized weapons called Ingrids, built with eerie female humanoid forms and powered through nerve-link technology that can wreck the human body.We walk through Candidate for Goddess (also known as Pilot Candidate) with a clear focus on how its world works: the Goddess Operation Academy, the strict pilot requirements (age, health, EL blood type), and EX, the superhuman capability that makes a pilot compatible with an Ingrid's interface. We also dig into the series' most charged dynamic: each young male pilot paired with a female repairer who maintains the machine and manually blocks painful feedback during missions, turning teamwork into something that can feel like dependency and control at the same time.Then we get personal about the rewatch factor. Some of the character design and dialogue screams “product of its time,” and the CGI mechs, especially the doll-like faces, can be a mixed bag in 2026. But there's still a compelling spine here, from Zero's mysterious “call” to the hangar to the moment he links with a goddess during an attack when it should have meant death. If you care about mecha anime, sci-fi worldbuilding, and the uneasy ethics of turning teenagers into weapons, this conversation is for you.

Episode 240 Welcome to another episode of The Observers Notebook, the official podcast of the Association of Lunar & Planetary Observers — where we explore the Solar System and beyond, from stargazing to science. I'm your host, Tim Robertson, and today we're diving into one of the most fascinating questions humanity has ever asked: Are we alone in the universe? For centuries, humans have looked up at the night sky and wondered if somewhere out there, another civilization is doing the exact same thing — looking back toward us. Today's guest is helping lead that search. Joining us is Franck Marchis — astronomer, planetary scientist, entrepreneur, and one of the leading voices in modern SETI research. Franck is known for his groundbreaking work in adaptive optics, asteroid systems, exoplanets, and the search for technosignatures — possible evidence of advanced civilizations elsewhere in the cosmos. He's also deeply involved in the future of astronomy through innovative telescope networks, citizen science, and the development of new observational technologies that could dramatically expand our ability to detect life beyond Earth. You can contact Franck at: franck@skymapper.io SETI https://www.seti.org/ Skymapper https://skymapper.io/ For more information you can visit the ALPO web site at: www.alpo-astronomy.org/ You can also support this podcast at Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ObserversNotebook Listen to the podcast on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/observersnotebook Subscribe on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/AssociationofLunarandPlanetaryObservers Subscribe on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/observers-notebook-the-alpo-podcast/id1199301885?mt=2 I want to thank the Producers of this podcast, Steve Siedentop and Michael Moyer for their generous support of the Observers Notebook.

For years we have been told that UFOs were only interesting to people who are disconnected from reality, don't understand science, or live in trailers drinking beer. We were instructed on what to believe when any evidence was presented; that anything potentially credible, i.e. unexplained and not a hoax, was fake. Then, suddenly, the narrative changed. We were given documents, photographs, and videos that appears for a moment to be groundbreaking but upon closer examination were details we already knew. A few documents presented interesting reports that are questionable as per their legitimacy. Overall we were told to suddenly make our own conclusions, and believe whatever we choose. Meanwhile, "amateur" astronomers have obtained footage far more credible that there is unexplainable, sometimes explainable, evidence of something.https://www.crrow777radio.comhttps://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/071026/release_04/documents/DOE-UAP-D004_Los-Alamos-Conference-on-Aerial-Phenomena_1949.pdfhttps://dn760109.eu.archive.org/0/items/chronologicalcat00midd/chronologicalcat00midd.pdf*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Establishing permanent lunar bases requires major engineering feats, including nuclear power plants and rovers. China views the moon as a stepping stone for Mars. (8)

A well-meaning astronomy enthusiast joins an absent-minded professor on a mission that soon carries them beyond every known galaxy. Their only hope is to stop a furious scientist who would rather smash the Solar System than admit Ptolemy was wrong. Battle of the Solar System by Ray Cummings. That's next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast. Born in New York City in 1887 Raymond King Cummings, was an influential and very prolific author from 1920 until his passing in 1957. As a pioneer of pulp science fiction, he published over 600 stories under his own name and various pen names, with roughly 350 of them published during his most prolific period between 1935 and 1942. Today's story was published in Thrilling Wonder Stories in the Spring 1944 issue on page 94, Battle of the Solar System by Ray Cummings… Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Arthur Giles helped build a civilization that believed death had been defeated, but one terrible diagnosis forces him to measure the future in years instead of centuries. When a dangerous experimental starship suddenly becomes his only chance to reclaim what time has taken away, the risk no longer seems impossible. The Dwindling Years by Lester del Rey.

He was blinded as a child, preached and sang on Texas street corners for coins, and died penniless in the ashes of his own burned house. They buried him in a grave with no name. Thirty-two years later, NASA bolted his wordless, three-minute song of grief to the side of the Voyager spacecraft and launched it past the planets.

https://spacescoop.org/en/scoops/2609/why-does-jupiter-have-bigger-moons-than-saturn/ Hosted by our editor, Richard Drumm. Jupiter and Saturn are the gas giants in our Solar System. Ummm… Uranus & Neptune are now called ice giants. But back to Jupiter & Saturn. They are the largest planets, have the most moons compared to the other planets, and if that isn't cool enough, they're home to some of the largest moons in the Solar System. Saturn has 280 or more moons in total, a total that seems to be changing daily. Jupiter has over 100 known moons so far.  As for me, I don't even try to keep count any more.   Here's where things get really interesting: Jupiter has four big moons, including Ganymede, the biggest one in the whole Solar System. Jupiter's Galilean moons from closest to farthest are Io, Europa, Ganymede & Callisto.    The first 3 are in a 1:2:4 orbital resonance with Io making 4 orbits, Europa 2 and Ganymede 1. It's been calculated that Ganymede & Callisto were in a 7:3 resonance a couple million years ago but are slipping toward a 6:3 which is a nice, stable 2:1 resonance. Callisto will likely fall into that resonance in a billion and a half years making the system 1:2:4:8. Nice & stable.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Today's 'guest' is HAD's This Month in Astronomical History.  I'll be reading more essays from the archives: Emily McMahon's November 2020 essay titled, "Sedna: In the Depths of the Solar System", and Dr. Ken Rumstay's November 2022 essay titled, "Lunokhod 1 - The First Extraterrestrial Rover". Please note that Emily was a high school student when she wrote her essay, so you don't have to be an astronomer or astrophysicist to write for TMIAH.   H'ad astra historia is the official podcast for the Historical Astronomy Division of the American Astronomical Society. We're here to share stories from and about the people who study the stars, planets, and the cosmos. We'll be hearing from individuals who not only study the history of astronomy, but also those who lived it, who were "in the room" during pivotal events within the last 50 years or so.     Podcast theme music: "Frost Waltz" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), licensed under creative commons: by attribution 4.0 license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)    Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes outer space and the people who study it.

Episode 238 Welcome to The Observers Notebook, the official podcast of the Association of Lunar & Planetary Observers — where we explore the Solar System and beyond, from Stargazing to Science. I'm your host, Tim Robertson, and today we're diving into one of the best times of year for meteor observing — summertime meteor showers. Joining me is longtime meteor observer and expert Bob Lunsford. Bob has spent decades monitoring meteor activity and helping observers understand what's happening in our skies each month.

Four women, three missions, one artist and a comet parked in space. Inside the Asteroid Day Festival episode of The Lisa Burke Show. For the Asteroid Day Festival in Luxembourg, four remarkable women came into the RTL City studio, three scientists and one artist, each travelling through heat, early flights and long journeys because they care deeply about how we explore, understand and protect ourselves from objects in space. My guests were Dr Stefania Soldini, Associate Professor in Space Engineering at the University of Liverpool and Director of the new Zero-G AstroLab; Sabina Raducan, planetary scientist at Vrije Universiteit Brussel and the Royal Observatory of Belgium; Professor Kathrin Altwegg, Professor Emeritus in Space Research and Planetology at the University of Bern; and Aura Satz, a London based artist working with film, sound, performance and sculpture. What asteroids are, and why we chase something so small and so far away An asteroid, as Stefania Soldini explained, is a small rocky object that never became a planet. That is exactly why it matters. These bodies preserve information from the birth of the Solar System more than 4.5 billion years ago. They may carry clues about planets, water and perhaps even how the building blocks of life came to Earth. “We scientists are interested because they retain some clues of maybe how life has been brought to Earth.” Stefania worked at Japan's Aerospace Exploration Agency, JAXA, on the famous Hayabusa2 mission to asteroid Ryugu. Hayabusa2 is still working and will fly past a new asteroid on 5 July 2026. Sending a spacecraft to a body around one kilometre across, about 100 million kilometres away, with a communication delay of around 40 minutes, is engineering on a scale that is hard to hold in the human mind. Hayabusa2 collected material twice: once from the surface and once from below it after creating a crater. Those samples were then returned to Earth, giving scientists access to material from a world we could never touch with human hands. “When you see the object for the first time, you think, oh wow, it's nothing like we thought it was.” That sentence captures the drama of asteroid exploration. The maths can take you there, the engineering can keep you alive, but the asteroid itself still has the power to surprise you. Hayabusa2 and DART: touching an asteroid, then deliberately hitting one From Hayabusa2, we moved to Sabina Raducan and NASA's DART mission, the Double Asteroid Redirection Test. This was the world's first real attempt to deflect an asteroid by deliberately crashing a spacecraft into it. The target was Dimorphos, a tiny moon around 160 metres across, orbiting the larger asteroid Didymos. The spacecraft was moving at more than six kilometres per second and had to find its target autonomously. The main asteroid became visible only about an hour before impact. The actual target appeared only minutes before the spacecraft hit it. “It was a complete success. So we can all feel safe. So far.” It is an extraordinary thing to hear. Humanity has tested a way to move an asteroid. It was real planetary defence, built on decades of maths, modelling, engineering and international collaboration. “The actual target became visible only a few minutes before the impact.” Hera: the European mission going to inspect the aftermath Because DART was destroyed on impact, we still do not know exactly what happened to Dimorphos. Did it leave a crater? Did it reshape the asteroid? How much material was thrown out? How did that ejecta change the momentum of the system? That is the job of Hera, the European Space Agency mission now on its way to the Didymos system. Both Sabina and Stefania work on Hera, which will inspect the result of DART and help turn a successful test into knowledge we can use if Earth ever needs protecting. “We know the asteroid was not completely destroyed. But we don't know what the crater looks like. If there even is a crater.” Whatever happens in geopolitics, science continues to show what collaboration can look like at its best. Rosetta and the comets: an archaeologist in space Professor Kathrin Altwegg then took us from asteroids to comets. A comet, she said with characteristic humour, is cooler than an asteroid in every sense. It is much colder, around minus 240 degrees, and it contains ices preserved from the early Solar System and beyond. As Principal Investigator for the ROSINA instrument on ESA's Rosetta mission to comet 67P, Kathrin helped analyse some of the most pristine material we have ever encountered. Rosetta found water, gases, organic molecules and amino acids, the building blocks of life. She was very clear: this is prebiotic material, not life itself. But the implication is enormous. “It's archaeology, but with a lot of zeros in the years.” For Kathrin, cometary science reaches into the great questions: where do we come from, where are we going, and are we alone? She explained that some of the material found in comets is older than our Solar System. If it is universal, then what happened here on Earth could have happened elsewhere. Her answer on life beyond Earth was characteristically direct: almost certainly yes, but probably microbes rather than life as we are. “A comet is just a more cool asteroid.” Rosetta was also a lesson in human commitment. This was a mission measured in decades: 10 years of planning, 10 years of building, 10 years of cruise through space, two years of measurements, then many more years of data analysis. When I asked how anyone stays committed for that long, her answer was unforgettable. “You get high on comets.” Apophis in 2029, and an honest answer about the risk In 2029, an asteroid called Apophis, around 300 metres across, will pass extremely close to Earth, at roughly the distance of geostationary satellites. Once considered a possible risk, it has now been ruled out as an impact threat. It will not hit Earth. Still, the conversation gave us an honest and useful way to think about risk. Dinosaur scale impacts are extraordinarily rare. Smaller objects, around 30 metres and under, are usually dealt with by Earth's atmosphere. The objects that deserve real attention are around 100 metres across: big enough to cause serious local damage, but small enough that we may be able to act. “These are the ones that we can do something about.” Kathrin would not offer false comfort for the truly enormous asteroid scenario. Planetary defence is therefore not about panic. It is about seeing early, understanding properly and acting in time, if we can. The artist in the room: how we listen to warnings Aura Satz came into the conversation from a different direction. She is not an asteroid scientist, but her work on sirens, sound and emergency listening felt unexpectedly central to Asteroid Day. Her film Preemptive Listening explores how we hear warnings, how we respond to alarm and whether emergency signals can do more than frighten us. Her work asks a question that belongs in planetary defence too: how do we listen to danger before it is too late? “Does an alarm have to be alarming?” Aura described a siren as a call to attention, something that gives an instruction and points to a possible future. In that sense, an asteroid warning system is also a kind of siren, one aimed not at panic, but at survival. “It points to the possibility of survival.” Her film installation is currently on display as part of the exhibition état bruit at Konschthal Esch in Luxembourg. This is exactly the kind of outreach the scientists said they need. The science is extraordinary, but it has to be heard, understood and felt by the public. Advice for anyone who loves space but fears the maths One of the most encouraging parts of the conversation came when I asked whether there is room in space science for people who are not brilliant mathematicians or engineers. The answer was yes. There is room for communicators, artists, outreach specialists, technicians, geologists, chemists, programmers, observers and people who can help translate difficult science into public understanding. “You don't have to be very good at mathematics. There are ways around it.” From Stefania and Sabina came advice that applies far beyond space: follow your passion, take opportunities when they come and keep going. In missions that last years or decades, perseverance matters as much as brilliance. One last image: a spacecraft parked in space, waiting My favourite image came from Kathrin. The next comet mission, Comet Interceptor, is planned for launch in 2028 or 2029. But it will not fly to a known target. It will park in space and wait, sometimes for years, for a brand new comet entering the inner Solar System for the first time. A spacecraft, waiting patiently in space for a comet that has not yet arrived. A target that does not yet have a name. “It depends on the patience you have. I told you it's a fun mission.” So we will keep watching that little parked spacecraft. We will think of these four women, and of everything they have given to science, space engineering, art and public understanding. Asteroid Day is about rocks in space, yes. But it is also about us: how we listen, how we collaborate, how we imagine the future, and how we learn to defend the only planet we currently call home.

I disappeared for a few months, went a bit underground, and even partially relocated my life to Greece so I could be a little closer to the gods I keep talking about. Now I'm ready to return with something simple, specific, and surprisingly alive: a new astrology podcast series on the planets, approached as characters of the psyche rather than abstract symbols on a page.If the houses are the places where the saga of a life unfolds, the planets are the ones living it. I've been thinking of them less like an internal family system and more like an internal solar system, each planet representing a different part of the self with its own aims, needs, and ways of moving. We'll take an imaginal voyage through the horoscope, stopping at one planet or luminary at a time, experimenting with what it feels like to become the Moon with its craters and shadow, the Sun with its heat and power, and Mercury with its fast, message-carrying urgency.Myth will be one of our main guides. Because the planets share names with Greco-Roman figures, their stories give us a rich way to watch archetypes behave: who allies with whom, what gets opposed, and how a planet's gifts can become traps when they run the inner world unchecked. The order of the series follows the Sun's movement through the zodiac, exploring the ruler of the sign we're in, beginning next week with the Moon as ruler of Cancer, then the Sun for Leo, then Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, plus a bonus planet and a special guest.As usual, I'll be joined by guests to explore each planetary archetype. We start with my dear friend, colleague, and mentor Melanie Reinhart for the lunar conversation. If you'd like to go deeper, paid Patreon members can join a monthly reflective Zoom call to ask questions about personal placements and continue the threads we leave open.

China’s Tianwen-2 spacecraft has successfully arrived at Kamoʻoalewa—a tiny, enigmatic "quasi-satellite" that dances along with Earth on its trek around the Sun. A fascinating scientific debate is heating up over this object's true identity: is it a standard, heavily space-weathered asteroid, or is it a long-lost chunk of our own Moon, violently blasted into space by an ancient impact? Tianwen-2 is on a mission to solve this cosmic identity crisis, and it is happening right now. This week, we sit down with Andrew Jones, a contributing editor for The Planetary Society and a freelance space journalist covering China's rapidly accelerating lunar and planetary exploration programs. He takes us inside the mission to reveal how Tianwen-2 will attempt to hover and snatch samples from this mysterious world, what those pieces could teach us about our Solar System's history, and where China’s planetary ambitions are targeting next. Then, Chief Scientist Bruce Betts joins us for What’s Up to look ahead at asteroid missions and moments on the horizon through the end of this decade, from a Hayabusa2 flyby of asteroid Torifune next month to the 2029 close approach of asteroid Apophis.

Saturn's moon Titan is one of the most Earth-like worlds in our Solar System, with a dense nitrogen atmosphere, weather cycles, methane rivers, and vast organic dune fields. It also happens to be the perfect place to fly a drone. NASA's Dragonfly mission is doing exactly that, sending a car-sized, nuclear-powered rotorcraft to explore Titan's surface starting in 2034. With just two years until launch, the team is deep in the work of making it happen. This week, we're joined by two members of the Dragonfly team from the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory. Felipe Ruiz is the mission's lead rotor engineer and mechanical implementation lead, responsible for designing the eight-rotor system that will carry Dragonfly across Titan's skies. Zibi Turtle is the mission's principal investigator, a planetary scientist whose career has spanned missions from Galileo to Cassini to Europa Clipper. Together, they walk us through the engineering challenges of flying a thousand-kilogram rotorcraft in an alien atmosphere, how the team is testing and validating the design here on Earth, and what the spacecraft's instruments will look for on Titan's surface. Then Bruce Betts, our chief scientist, joins us for What's Up, where we pay tribute to the Ingenuity Mars helicopter and the legacy of the first powered, controlled flight on another world.

Rick Fisher discusses China's 100-year plan to dominate the solar system, specifically the Lunar South Pole's resources. He describes potential "de-confliction" issues as China uses crashing propulsion modules for landings. Fisher concludes that space is becoming an active war-fighting domain involving orbital, electronic, and cyber warfare.1940

Exquisitely detailed measurements of the ripples in spacetime from the mergers of black holes now show that some of these merging black holes were, themselves, created by an earlier black hole merging event. While this had been suspected to take place, we now have clear evidence of it. On a less dramatic scale but much closer to home, new simulations of the early solar system suggest the large population of moons of Uranus needed help from a now long lost fifth giant planet to survive. Join us for all this, space news, trivia, and a generally good time.

A group of researchers and private investors are planning a series of privately funded missions to Venus, hoping to find signs of life. That may seem like a startling possibility. Although Venus is a close neighbor to Earth, it has a smothering atmosphere of carbon dioxide that has allowed the planet's surface to heat to temperatures that would melt lead. There's crushing pressure. And to top it off, there are clouds of sulfuric acid. Astrophysicist and planetary scientist Sara Seager joins Host Ira Flatow to explain why she thinks life on Venus might be possible, high up in the clouds. Seager has conducted lab experiments that indicate various biomolecules could survive there, despite the toxic conditions. She's leading a series of proposed private missions to the planet, to study the atmosphere, conduct habitability studies, and even bring back a sample of Venusian cloud material. Guest: Dr. Sara Seager is an astrophysicist and a professor of physics, planetary science, and aeronautics and astronautics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Professor Dante Lauretta discusses the origins of his journey to explore the dawn of the solar system. The mission began in 2004 when his mentor, Mike Drake, invited him to meet with Lockheed Martin to propose an asteroid sample return mission. Lauretta shares his personal background as a once "directionless" student who found inspiration through a NASA job advertisement. The team's initial proposals suffered demoralizing rejections from NASA, which served as a "gut punch" but ultimately strengthened their resolve. These early challenges led to the identification of the target asteroid, 1999 RQ36. (1/4)FEBRUARY 1930

This is a rebroadcast of one of our favorite episodes from the past! It's a scientific controversy of planetary proportions! Is Pluto a planet, or not? You decide, after we present two sides of an epic astronomy argument. Back in 2006, the International Astronomer's Union voted on a definition of the word “planet” that excluded Pluto and other newly dubbed “dwarf planets” from planethood status. Astronomers - and everybody else - quickly chose sides. We dive deep into the debate and learn that Pluto's not the only Space Object Formerly Known As A Planet. Then we'll ask you to weigh in with your opinion, and see if you can find “consensus” on what should be called a planet. Featuring planetary astronomer Kirby Runyon.

Author, poet, and science communicator Diane Ackerman is our guest. Her wonderful collection of poems, with one devoted to each of the worlds in our Solar System, was first published in 1976. Carl Sagan said she had produced, “...a stunning book of poetry in The Planets. The work is scientifically accurate and even a convenient introduction to modern ideas on the planets, but much more important, it is spectacularly good poetry, clear, lyrical, and soaring. . . One of the triumphs of Ackerman’s pastoral is the demonstration of how closely compatible planetary exploration and poetry, science and art really are.” “The Planets” is now available in a brand new edition, and is as sublime, entertaining, and enlightening as it was half a century ago.

Ken Croswell details the discovery of the "Hercules stream," stars resonating with the galaxy's central bar. He notes that as the bar's rotation slows, there is a 20% chance Earth's solar system will join this "exclusive club" of Trojan stars in two billion years, changing our galactic position.
