Black holes could unlock the mysteries of creation and live at the heart of nearly every galaxy. But these invisible balls of extremely dense matter have never been fully understood, especially when they were only a theory. We travel through a cosmic wormhole back to the 1930s to learn how the first astrophysicist to successfully theorize a black hole, Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, was ridiculed and rejected by his scientific community.This is the first episode of a two-part journey celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory's operation of the space telescope. Join us this summer for a cosmic journey full of events and virtual resources from around the Smithsonian that will transport you from our closest star, the sun, to the far reaches of the universe.

In this Better Satellite World podcast series, SSPI's Lou Zacharilla speaks with people whose lives and work inspire us because they walk “the road less travelled,” the one leading us to a wider view of space, satellites and our quest for the dwelling of light we call “The Truth.” This series features people you may have heard about but may not have yet had a chance to actually hear speak. In the fourth episode of The Road Less Travelled, Lou speaks with Dr. Kimberly Arcand. Dr. Arcand is the Visualization Scientist & Emerging Tech Lead for NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory, which has its headquarters at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Dr. Arcand is an award-winning producer and director. She is a leading expert in studying the perception and comprehension of high-energy data visualization across the novice-expert spectrum. As a science data storyteller, she combines her background in molecular biology and computer science with her current work in the fields of astronomy and physics. Dr. Arcand has been a pioneer in astronomy data visualization, 3D printing and virtual reality. She presented her TEDx talk entitled “How to Hold a Dead Star in Your Hands” in 2016 on 3D printing, the same year she was selected as a “Changemaker” for the White House State of the Women Summit. In 2019, she was featured in the Smithsonian's “How to be a Scientist” video series both for her work in 3D visualizations of astronomical objects and her work with under-represented groups in STEM. She led a team of researchers to launch the first-ever data-driven virtual reality application of a supernova remnant using NASA observational data.  She was selected as a speaker for the U.S. Department of State Speaker Program in 2019, and has appeared on TV shows such as episodes of BBC's “Universe” on BBC & PBS in 2021,  “A World Without NASA” on the Curiosity channel in 2020, and Roadtrip Nation on PBS in 2020.  Her recent work with SYSTEM Sounds on data sonifications for multiwavelength data and featured on NASA's SoundCloud, went viral, and has been covered in the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Atlantic, BBC, CNBC, NPR, and the Today Show among others. She is currently working on holograms and applications incorporating haptic technology for astrophysics.

Welcome to another episode and another season of Celestial Citizen Podcast!Today, we will be discussing all things asteroids – especially fitting given the recent successful NASA DART (or Double Asteroid Redirection Test) mission toward the end of 2022.  We'll be speaking with astronomer Dr. Martin Elvis and diving into his book – Asteroids: How Love, Fear, and Greed Will Determine Our Future in Space – it's a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in learning more about how asteroids could influence the future of space exploration.On today's show we are joined by Dr. Martin Elvis.Dr. Elvis is an astronomer at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory which is a collaborative research effort alongside Harvard University and it is now known as the Center for Astrophysics.  Dr. Elvis has obsessed for years over how supermassive black holes come to be seen as quasars, sources so bright that we see them out to the greatest distances and earliest times in the universe.  For his PhD, Dr. Elvis discovered that quasars emit X-rays.  And at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, using a fleet of space and ground based telescopes he mapped out the spectrum of quasars from X-rays to ultraviolet and infrared wavelengths, and was able to suggest their inner structures.  Concerned about the growing expense of space telescopes, Dr. Elvis has turned to researching how astronomy is needed to enable asteroid mining.  He has since published widely on issues related to asteroid mining and the space economy, law and ethics, and even has Asteroid 9283 Martinelvis named after him.We also want to extend a big thank you to our sponsors this year for supporting our show!

On Curious Minds, Christine Malec dives into sensing the dynamic universe, a website compiled with accessible astronomy, created by staff at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.

Michael Feir highlights the latest audio drama offering from Qcode Media, called Listening In. Summer can bring us very hot and dry weather. Susan Kerney tells us how we can prep our gardens for these conditions. We chat with Abbas Wahab, a Sudanese Canadian comedian who's set to release, his debut standup comedy album and special, Safe Black. It's the Thursday Buzz with Bill Shackleton. On Curious Minds, Christine Malec dives into sensing the dynamic universe, a website compiled with accessible astronomy, created by staff at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory. AMI Editor Mark Phoenix joins us for this week's Roundtable conversation.

Charles Greeley Abbot was ahead of his time. He was interested in the Sun — not so much as a star, but for more practical reasons. He wanted to use it to improve weather forecasts, and to power everyday devices. He received more than 15 patents related to solar energy — the last when he was 100 years old. Abbot was born 150 years ago today, on a farm in New Hampshire. He quickly showed that he was clever and inventive; at age 13, he designed and built a forge to help repair tools. Abbot studied physics at MIT. There, he met Samuel Pierpoint Langley, director of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory. He soon joined Langley, then took over the director's job after Langley died. And in 1928, he became secretary of the entire Smithsonian. Abbot was especially interested in how much energy the Sun produced, and how that changed over time. He thought such knowledge could help provide better weather forecasts. So Abbot established three observatories to study the question, then spent decades analyzing the results. He concluded that the Sun's energy output varied by several percent. He turned out to be wrong, though — the variation is only a fraction of one percent. Abbot created many solar-powered devices, and wrote about solar power plants. He patented a solar cooker, a boiler, and a system to remove salt from seawater. Abbot received his final patent less than two years before he died, at age 101.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Avi Loeb is author of the book “Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth”.  It's a story you can hardly believe, once you hear it.  But here it is -- the story of the day in 2017 when telescopes around the world started tracking an object in our solar system.  It was moving in such a way that scientists around the world came to the same, startling conclusion:  It was an extraterrestrial spaceship.  Avi Loeb is a professor of the Harvard Astronomy Department.  He is also a member of the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian (which is a collaboration of Harvard College Observatory and Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory.  Professor Loeb received a PhD in plasma physics at age 24 from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (1986) and was subsequently a long-term member at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton (1988-1993), where he started to work in theoretical astrophysics. In 1993 he moved to Harvard University where he was tenured three years later.  He is now the Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science and former chair of the department. He also holds a visiting professorship at the Weizmann Institute of Science and a Sackler Senior Professorship by special appointment in the School of Physics and Astronomy at Tel Aviv University. Loeb has authored nearly 700 research articles and 4 books. Avi Loeb:  https://astronomy.fas.harvard.edu/people/avi-loeb Something Ventured:  https://somethingventured.us/

Many scientists believe that black holes make sense in the realm of theoretical physics, but couldn't really exist in real life. Capturing an image of a black hole would change all that. The latest in science, culture, and history from Smithsonian Channel.

After years of planning by over 200 international scientists, the data purported to show the first ever image of a black hole is ready. The team gathers for the big reveal - it's a seismic moment in... The latest in science, culture, and history from Smithsonian Channel.

Rodney Marks was an Australian astrophysicist, who worked with the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory at the South Pole. After a day’s work, he became violently ill. 24 hours later he would be dead. But due to the harsh weather conditions, it would be six months before his body could be transported to New Zealand for a post-mortem examination. After an excruciating wait, results showed that Rodney had died from methanol poisoning. On the base were 49 other people, trapped in the winter cold. Was Rodney killed by one of his co-workers, or was his death a tragic accident?

Transforming things we take for granted: An astronomer who has turned the night sky into a symphony; an architecture firm that has radically rethought police stations; and an audiophile who built a successful record company on underappreciated sounds.

In 2014, astronomer David Wilmer aimed the ALMA Array at a young star 450 light years away. What he found proved that planets formed billions of years earlier than what scientists originally... The latest in science, culture, and history from Smithsonian Channel.

Phil Sadler of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory shows how to bring the cosmos down to size by using the processes of any scientific investigation: selecting a specific problem, collecting data, and building a model that both explains our observations and accurately predicts future findings.
