Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in Vancouver this week, and he's promising a ‘renters' bill of rights.' We dig into the housing measures and how they will help people in B.C. with guest Rebecca Love, volunteer of Vancouver Tenants Union, and your calls. Canadian astronaut Jeremy Hansen joins us ahead of his 2025 trip to the moon to talk about life as an astronaut and to answer your questions about space.

Are you ready to uncover the mind-bending secrets of our universe? Join us as we reveal the unexpected truth about the formation of habitable planets and the potential for multiple habitable worlds within a single solar system. You won't believe how many habitable planets could exist in the perfect cosmic sweet spot. And as we delve deeper into this cosmic mystery, prepare to be amazed by the surprising possibility of habitable moons orbiting gas giants. The answer lies in the unexplored realms of our vast universe, waiting to be unraveled. Stay tuned for an eye-opening journey through the cosmos that will challenge everything you thought you knew about planetary systems and cosmological potential. Get ready to expand your understanding of the universe in ways you never imagined. In this episode, you will be able to: · Explore the mysteries of fast blue transient explosions and their impact on our understanding of the universe. · Discover the fascinating Glass Z 12 high-redshift galaxy, offering insights into the early universe and cosmic evolution. · Grasp the uncertainties in astronomy research and how they drive innovation and breakthrough discoveries. · Uncover the complexity of the early universe and gain a deeper appreciation for its profound impact on cosmic evolution. The bottom line is Dave's right to question this, because we can't guarantee what the universe is going to do. We don't have any sort of control over that. All we can do is observe what it's doing now, and through the magic of the fact that we can look back in time, we get a good idea of what it's done in the past. - Fred Watson Glass Z 12 High-Redshift Galaxy Glass Z 12 is a high-redshift galaxy, noted for its advanced state of maturity shortly after the Big Bang. Its study, largely facilitated by the GrISM lens Amplified Survey from Space (GLASS) using the James Webb Space Telescope, sheds light on the early universe's formation and evolution. Despite the advanced observational technology, the nature of such galaxies holds persisting enigmas, stimulating ongoing research and debates in the astronomical community.

Your Heard Tell Show for Friday, July 28th, 2023 is turning down the noise of the news cycle and getting to the information we need to discern our times by discussing the passing of Sinead O'Connor and how one of the original "viral moments" of over 30 years ago looks in retrospect and can teach us about media narratives, fame, viral videos, historical context, and how every story is always a people story to properly understand it. Our guest is Heard Tell's resident science expert, Dr. Michael Siegel who continues his streak of having the most appearances of any guest in program history.

Discover the unexpected twist that ignited our curiosity, the twist that pushed the boundaries of our understanding of the cosmos. Rusty from Donnybrook and Russ from Stylebridge brought forth questions that transformed our podcast into an intergalactic journey, delving into the mysteries of the Milky Way's metallicity profile and the mind-bending concept of our universe residing within a black hole. As we explored these audacious ideas, we found ourselves diving deeper into the enigma of space, forging a bond with our listeners who share our passion for astrobiology. But little did we know, these questions were just the beginning - a beginning that would unravel even more captivating mysteries. Stay tuned to uncover the next twist in this cosmic tale. In this episode, you will be able to: · Get the lowdown on how Metallicity is intertwined with the presence of complex life across our galaxy. · Journey through the awe-inspiring, enigmatic universe of black holes, detailing their size and properties. · Walk through the cosmic annals as you perceive past events due to the speed of light. · Examine the Big Bang, divulging the key contribution of population three stars during this pivotal cosmic event. · Get to grips with the perplexing concepts of Redshift, time dilation, and the paths of space objects. Time Travel in Astronomy: How the Universe Reveals Its Past I think he's actually right...I think he's on the right track, because whilst the formal definition of a black hole...is a point in space with infinite density...that suggests that if its density is infinite, that its dimensions are zero...But I'm thinking that physicists know that 'physics'...never works that way. You can't have something with no volume and no dimensions and yet still exert a gravitational force The resources mentioned in this episode are: · Check out the integrated metallicity profile of the Milky Way published in Nature Astronomy. · Learn more about the metallicity of stars and its importance in the search for life on other planets. · Explore the concept of living inside a giant black hole and the theories surrounding it. · Find out if the entire universe could be a quantum object and what that means for our understanding of reality. · Discover the different sizes of black holes, including supermassive and intermediate black holes. · Learn about the formal definition of a black hole and its dimensions. · Watch the video on YouTube for a visual explanation of black holes. · Consider the implications of black holes on our understanding of physics and the laws of the universe. · Dive deeper into the topic of black holes by reading scientific articles and books on the subject. · Stay tuned for future episodes of the show for more fascinating discussions and questions. The Size of Black Holes Alright, time for a real brain-boggler: Do black holes have a size? Now, this might sound like a straightforward question, but in reality, it's anything but. The nature and properties of black holes are one of the greatest mysteries of our universe. In technical terms, black holes are described as a "singularity," which implies zero dimensions. But could there be more to it than that? Black holes became an engaging topic when Andrew and Fred touched upon how their "size" led to several theories and ideas. Both agreed that the definition and understanding of black holes are fluid, leaving a lot of room for scientific debate. Fred even hinted at the possibility of revisiting the no hair theorem, which describes the limited number of detectable attributes of a black hole. So, despite the name, black holes are anything but an empty subject! Apogee and Earth's Climate Now, let's talk about something a touch closer to home - the Earth's climate. You might have heard the term "apeelian," which refers to when our blue planet is furthest from the Sun. It's a regular, annual occurrence, but does it have a significant effect on our climate? From a layman's perspective, it might seem like it should. But hold onto your hats - the reality is quite different! In engaging conversation with Andrew, Fred clarified a common misconception about the apogee and its impact on our climate. As it turns out, the difference in distance doesn't have much effect at all! The tilt of Earth's axis and seasonal changes have a lot more to do with our climate than our planet's solar proximity. It's one of those delightful bits of information that make you appreciate just how complex and finely balanced our planet's systems are. The Size of Black Holes Alright, time for a real brain-boggler: Do black holes have a size? Now, this might sound like a straightforward question, but in reality, it's anything but. The nature and properties of black holes are one of the greatest mysteries of our universe. In technical terms, black holes are described as a "singularity," which implies zero dimensions.

Fred even hinted at the possibility of revisiting the no hair theorem, which describes the limited number of detectable attributes of a black hole. So, despite the name, black holes are anything but an empty subject! The key moments in this episode are:00:00:00 - Introduction, 00:03:14 - Metallicity and Complex Life, 00:07:59 - Looking for Life in Other Galaxies, 00:10:13 - Apogee and Earth's Climate, 00:11:23 - Conclusion, 00:17:23 - The Size of Black Holes, 00:22:54 - Looking Back in Time, 00:26:06 - Light Travel Time, 00:27:18 - Paradigm Shift, 00:28:43 - Uncertainty in Early Universe Models, 00:34:12 - "Redshift and Energy Conservation", 00:37:11 - "Time Dilation and Atomic Frequencies", 00:41:40 - "Origin of Interstellar Objects", 00:44:30 - "Collaboration vs. Competition in Space Exploration", 00:45:18 - "The Changing Landscape of the Space Race", 00:52:27 - Introduction, 00:52:30 - Appreciation for Hugh, 00:52:44 - Conclusion, 00:52:50 - Farewell, 00:53:02 - Podcast Information,

This time it's different. As always, it's your space questions, but not my answers. I invited my fellow space YouTubers to give their answers to help me with the Q&A. Enjoy!

Today, astronomers announced the discovery of 12 new moons around Jupiter. Inverse writer Matthew Phelan sat down with the Carnegie Institute’s Scott S. Sheppard who led the team that located the Jovian moons to tell us what this means for our solar systems and why one of the moons is especially odd. Two of the new dozen were uncovered in the spring of 2017 by Sheppard’s team bringing Jupiter’s moon count to 69 (nice), which means we now know there are 79 moons orbiting Jupiter. Questions Include: How did we find these new Jovian moons and why was it a serendipitous finding? What is the criteria that determines whether or not an object is a moon? How many new moons around Jupiter did we find? How do we detect new moons? What are Trojan asteroids? What are prograde and retrograde moons? What is this new “oddball” moon Valetudo and why is it different? Will there be more moons discovered around Jupiter? Is there a minimum size for a moon?
