Today we will be discussing central retinal artery occlusions, or CRAOs, and the recent trials that have come out and even those further on the horizon. The 2026 American Heart Association and American Stroke Association guidelines for the early management of patients with acute ischemic stroke were recently published and in them highlight the uncertainty around the treatment of acute CRAOs with intravenous thrombolysis, even when the patient presents within four and a half hours and is otherwise eligible. These guidelines come after two recent trials, which we will further discuss. The thrombolysis in patients with acute central retinal artery occlusion, or the THEIA trial, was published in the November issue of Lancet Neurology. This multicenter trial out of France randomized 70 patients with acute CRAOs presented within four and a half hours of time from last known well to either receive IV alteplase and oral placebo or IV placebo and oral aspirin. While safety measures showed no symptomatic hemorrhage event, although they did have one asymptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage occur, the primary outcomes, which included visual acuity improvement at one month, showed some evidence for a trend of improved acuity in the IV thrombolytic group at 66% compared to 48 in the aspirin group, it did not reach significant. And now more recently, the Tenecteplase in central retinal artery occlusion study, or TenCRAOs, was published in the January 2026 issue of The New England Journal of Medicine. TenCRAOs was a six European country multicenter trial that randomized 78 patients with CRAOs all presenting within four and a half hours of time from last known well to either receive IV Tenecteplase or aspirin, both with placebo-matching as in THEIA. The primary outcomes of TenCRAOs also included visual acuity at one month, but unfortunately this trial also did not show [inaudible 00:02:07]. They showed 20% in the IV TNK group compared to 24% in aspirin. And additionally, there was one fatal intracerebral hemorrhage in the TNK group that should be considered. Overall, the AHA and ASA guidelines state the usefulness of treatment with intravenous thrombolysis is uncertain. And this is based largely on these studies as neither trial showed improved visual recovery. Although both of these trials are underpowered, leading many to believe that the jury is still out on the use of IV thrombolytics in CRAOs. But importantly, stay on the lookout for one last trial. The early reperfusion therapy with intravenous alteplase for recovery of vision and acute central retinal artery occlusion, or the Revision trial, is actively recruiting. Revision is similar in design as THEIA, but with a goal of up to 422 total patients for a goal of a well-powered study to guide decision making.

Thank you for listening to Astronomy Daily! Here's everything from today's episode:   Story 1: Artemis II — T-Minus Days to Launch NASA is targeting April 1, 2026 for the launch of Artemis II — the first crewed lunar flyby since Apollo 17 in 1972. The crew of Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch, and Jeremy Hansen will fly a 10-day free-return trajectory around the Moon aboard the Orion spacecraft on the SLS rocket from Kennedy Space Center. The six-day launch window runs April 1–6. Meanwhile, a new analysis suggests the mission could face elevated solar superflare risk, though NASA is proceeding after a successful Flight Readiness Review. Source: NASA — https://www.nasa.gov/mission/artemis-ii/ Solar risk analysis: https://www.space.com/space-exploration/artemis/artemis-2-moon-mission-shouldnt-launch-until-late-2026-new-analysis-of-solar-superflares-suggests   Story 2: G3 Geomagnetic Storm & Aurora Australis Multiple coronal mass ejections from the Sun triggered a G3 (strong) geomagnetic storm, producing vivid auroral displays from New York to Scotland to — remarkably — Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, and Adelaide. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology issued a severe storm warning for March 23. Conditions are easing on March 24 (Kp 3–4) but some aurora activity may continue. March is historically the best month for auroras due to the equinox effect, and with Solar Cycle 25 at its peak, scientists say this could be the best aurora viewing period until the mid-2030s. Aurora forecast: https://earthsky.org/sun/sun-news-activity-solar-flare-cme-aurora-updates/ Aurora Australis guide: https://www.elle.com.au/culture/news/aurora-australis-southern-lights-march-2026-tonight-alert/   Story 3: JWST Finds 'Impossible' Atmosphere on Lava World TOI-561 b A Carnegie Institution-led team used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to detect the strongest evidence yet for an atmosphere around a rocky exoplanet. TOI-561 b — an ultra-hot super-Earth about twice Earth's mass, orbiting its star every 10.56 hours — was expected to be a bare rock. Instead, JWST measured a dayside temperature far cooler than a bare rock would produce, indicating a thick atmosphere redistributing heat above a global magma ocean. The findings were published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters.

A Brown University-led team found volcanic material from the Taurus-Littrow region is strongly depleted in sulfur-33 — unlike anything found on Earth. Possible explanations include ancient lunar atmospheric chemistry or a legacy of the Theia impact that formed the Moon. Published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets.

When women in midlife experience afternoon energy crashes, wake up at 3am for no reason, or watch belly fat accumulate despite nothing changing, the first thing we blame is hormones. But what if your hormones are not the root cause, and everything you have been chasing has been one step removed from what is actually driving it all?In this episode of The Well Drop, I sat down with Boris Berjan, co-founder of Theia Health, to talk about the real root cause behind the most frustrating midlife symptoms. It starts with your blood sugar, and once you understand how quietly it shifts without you ever feeling it, the way you think about every symptom you have been trying to fix will never be the same.Boris Berjan is the co-founder of Theia Health and has spent years studying glucose patterns across thousands of users, giving him a rare front-row seat to how blood sugar dysregulation actually shows up in real women's bodies before it ever appears on a lab result. His work sits at the intersection of metabolic science, wearable technology, and behavior change, making him one of the most practical voices in the space for women who want answers, not just data.What's discusses:(00:44) Why stubborn belly fat, brain fog, afternoon crashes, and 3am wake-ups are not just hormonal(04:59) Why you cannot feel when blood sugar dysregulation begins and why that is the problem(06:31) The scientific studies showing women age most at 44 and again at 60(09:15) Boris's personal health journey and what led him to build Theia(23:04) How Theia's scoring system makes metabolic data immediately understandable(33:51) Why fasting the same way every day works against your cycle and your blood sugar(35:09) Why your glucose spikes even when you eat zero carbs(37:01) How sleep, stress, and a difficult conversation before a meal affect your blood sugar(39:08) Where CGM technology is heading and what it will mean for women in midlife(42:30) Boris's one drop of wellness wisdom for every woman listeningIf your labs are normal but your body still feels off, this episode is for you.Sign up for The Well Drop NewsletterFind out more about Amber Berger: Website: http://thewelldrop.comInstagram: @thewelldropFind out more about Boris Berjan, the co-founder of Theia Health: Website: https://theiahealth.ai/c/thewelldrop?el=thewelldrop Instagram (personal): https://www.instagram.com/borisberjan/ Instagram (brand): https://www.instagram.com/theiahealth.ai/ THE WELL DROP

From the fate of the former planet Theia to the dynamics of galaxy mergers and the origins of hydrogen, this episode is packed with insights that will expand your understanding of the universe.Episode Highlights:- The Fate of Theia: Rusty from Donnybrook poses a thought-provoking question about Theia, the planet that collided with Earth. Andrew and Fred discuss the most accepted theories regarding Theia's remnants and how they may have been absorbed into Earth's mantle, leaving behind intriguing geological evidence.- Galaxy Mergers Explained: New listener Melina asks about the merging of spiral galaxies in an expanding universe. The hosts explain how gravity can overcome the universe's expansion on galactic scales, leading to fascinating interactions and eventual mergers between galaxies.- Olympus Mons and Mars' Atmosphere: Kevin wonders if the colossal eruptions of Olympus Mons could have contributed to Mars' atmospheric loss. Andrew and Fred explore the volcanic activity on Mars and clarify that while Olympus Mons is impressive, the planet's lack of a magnetic field is a more significant factor in its atmospheric decline.- Hydrogen's Cosmic Origins: Five-year-old Yuki asks why hydrogen is the only element not formed in stars. The hosts explain that hydrogen was created shortly after the Big Bang, making it the most abundant element in the universe, while other elements formed later through stellar processes.For more Space Nuts, including our continuously updating newsfeed and to listen to all our episodes, visit our website. Follow us on social media at SpaceNutsPod on Facebook, Instagram, and more.

He introduces us to Theia, the proto-planet that came crashing into the surface of our infant planet four and a half billion years ago, tilting the Earth on Her axis and birthing the Moon. This meeting ultimately shaped the passing of time, the movement of tides, and the cycle of the seasons as we have known them.

Hoy os hablamos de un asunto a medio camino entre la astronomía y la geología: la hipótesis del Gran Impacto para explicar la formación de la Luna. Seguramente hayáis leído que la teoría más aceptada para entender la formación de nuestro satélite es que la Tierra chocó con un planetoide del tamaño de Marte muy al principio de su vida. A ese planetoide que nadie ha visto, pero cuya existencia inferimos, le hemos puesto nombre: Theia, en honor a la titanesa madre de Selene en la mitología griega. Hoy os contamos todo lo que necesitáis saber sobre esta teoría: ¿por qué creemos que la Luna es el resultado de esa catástrofe? ¿Pasa lo mismo con el resto de los planetas? ¿Existe a día de hoy algún resto de Theia que podamos examinar? ¿Debemos considerar la existencia de Theia un hecho, o una mera hipótesis? Si os interesa este asunto podéis escuchar más sobre él en nuestro pódcast hermano, La Brújula de la Ciencia. En el episodio s13e05 os hablamos en más detalle de la posibilidad de que los restos de Theia se encuentren todavía enterrados en el manto de la Tierra. También, yéndonos un poco por la tangente, podéis aprender más sobre la rotación de los planetas en el episodio s02e31 de este mismo pódcast, Aparici en Órbita.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into remarkable discoveries that illuminate the origins of our planet and the cosmos beyond.Ancient Australian Rocks Shed Light on Earth's OriginsScientists have made significant strides in understanding the formation of Earth and the Moon through the analysis of 3.7 billion-year-old feldspar crystals from the Murchison region in Western Australia. This research reveals that continental growth began relatively late in Earth's history, around three and a half billion years ago, suggesting a shared composition between Earth and the Moon following a colossal impact event. The findings challenge existing theories about the timing of crustal development and provide new insights into the early geological processes that shaped our planet.Hints of a Possible Fifth Force in NatureA groundbreaking report has emerged, suggesting the potential existence of a fifth fundamental force of nature. Researchers have observed unexpected deviations in electron transitions among calcium isotopes, hinting at a new particle, the Yukawa boson. This discovery could reshape the standard model of particle physics and deepen our understanding of the universe's fundamental forces, as scientists continue to explore the mysteries of atomic interactions.Record-Breaking Ocean Waves Observed from SpaceIn an astonishing revelation, satellites have recorded ocean waves reaching heights of nearly 20 metres, the largest ever measured from space. This episode explores how these massive waves, driven by storms, can carry destructive energy across vast distances, impacting coastlines far from the storm's origin. The findings not only validate existing wave models but also reveal new insights into the energy dynamics of ocean swells.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature CommunicationsPhysical Review LettersProceedings of the National Academy of SciencesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

In Episode 280 of The Business Development Podcast, Kelly Kennedy sits down with Jason Michaud, founder and CEO of Stardust Technologies, to explore the coming Space Boom of 2036—a defining moment that could reshape global economies, industries, and human potential. Jason shares his mission to make space accessible for everyone while warning that Canada and much of the world are not prepared for what's coming. From helping pioneer the world's first Indigenous space agency to collaborating on THEIA, a lunar analog habitat designed to simulate life beyond Earth, Jason and his team at Stardust are leading a bold vision for humanity's next frontier.Together, Kelly and Jason unpack why the world isn't ready—from outdated education systems and short-sighted policy to the urgent need for infrastructure and leadership in the new space economy. This conversation is a wake-up call for innovators and entrepreneurs everywhere: the next great race has already begun, and the decisions we make in the next decade will determine who thrives in the new age of space.Key Takeaways: 1. The next great economic shift is already on the horizon — the Space Boom of 2036 will redefine how nations and industries operate.2. Most of the world, including Canada, is not prepared for the coming wave of innovation, infrastructure, and opportunity that space will demand.3. Space exploration is no longer limited to governments; it's becoming a commercial and entrepreneurial frontier that rewards vision and action.4. Education systems need to evolve now to prepare the next generation for space-focused science, engineering, and business leadership.5. Canada has the talent and potential to be a leader in space, but only if it invests early and builds the ecosystem to support it.6. Collaboration between Indigenous communities, governments, and private companies can create a more inclusive and ethical space future.7. The development of analog habitats like THEIA is critical for preparing humans to live and thrive beyond Earth.8. The companies and countries that move first in the next decade will define the standards, technology, and culture of the new space economy.9. Making space accessible for everyone isn't just a dream — it's an urgent necessity for long-term human progress and survival.10. The countdown has already begun; those who wait for the future to arrive will be left behind when the new space race takes off.If you're ready to grow alongside other driven entrepreneurs and business leaders, join The Catalyst Club—a private community built on support, growth, and connection for people serious about building something that lasts.If you've been looking for a place to connect with like-minded entrepreneurs who truly get it, I think you'll love it.

This week we talk about DART, extinction events, and asteroid 2024 YR4.We also discuss Bruce Willis, Theia, and the Moon.Recommended Book: Exadelic by Jon EvansTranscriptIn the 1998 action flick Armageddon, an asteroid the size of Texas is nudged into a collision course with earth by a comet, and NASA only notices it 18 days before impact.The agency recruits a veteran oil driller, played by Bruce Willis, to fly out to the asteroid and drill a hole in it, and to detonate a nuke in that hole, which should destroy it before it hits earth, which undetonated, that rock not broken up ahead of time, would wipe out everything on the planet. It's a fun late-90s flick loaded with some of the biggest names of the era, so I won't ruin it for you if you haven't seen it, but the crux of the plot is that there's a lot going on in space, and at some point there's a chance one of these big rocks hurling around in the void will line up just right with earth's orbit, and that rock—because of how fast things move in space—would hit with enough force to wipe out a whole lot of living things; perhaps all living things.This film's concept was predicated on historical events. Not the oilmen placing a nuke on a rogue asteroid, but the idea of an asteroid hitting earth and killing off pretty much everything.One theory as to how we got our Moon is that an object the size of Mars, called Theia, collided with Earth around 4.5 billion years ago. That collision, according to some versions of the so-called “giant impact hypothesis,” anyway, could have brought earth much of its water, as the constituent materials required for both water and carbon based life were seemingly most prevalent in the outer solar system back in those days, so this object would have slammed into early earth, created a disk of debris that combined that early earth's materials with outer solar system materials, and that disk would have then reformed into a larger body, earth, and a smaller body, the moon.In far more recent history, though still unthinkably ancient by the measure of a human lifespan, an asteroid thought to be somewhere between 6 and 9 miles, which is about 10 to 15 km in diameter hit off the coast of what is today Mexico, along the Yucatan Peninsula, killing about 70% of all species on earth.This is called the Chicxulub Event, and it's believed to be what killed the dinosaurs and all their peer species during that period, making way for, among other things, early mammals, and thus, eventually, humans.So that was an asteroid that, on the low end, was about as wide as Los Angeles. You can see why those in charge back in the 90s tapped Bruce Willis to help them handle an asteroid the size of Texas.Thankfully, most asteroid impacts aren't as substantial, though they can still cause a lot of damage.What's important to remember is that because these things are moving so fast, even though part of their material will be burnt up in the atmosphere, and even though they might not all be Texas-sized, they generate an absolutely boggling amount of energy upon impact.The exact amount of energy will vary based on all sorts of things, including the composition of the asteroid , the angle at which it hits, and where it hits; an oceanic impact will result in a whole lot of that energy just vaporizing water, for instance, while a land impact, which is less common because a little more than 70% of the planet is water, will result in more seismic consequences.That said, an asteroid that's about 100 meters in diameter, so about 328 feet, which is a lot smaller than the aforementioned 6 to 9 mile asteroid—a 100 meter, 328 foot object hitting earth can result in a force equivalent to tens of megatons of TNT, each megaton equaling a million tons, and for comparison, the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of WWII ranged from 15,000 to 21,000 tons of TNT, mere kilotons. So a 100 meter, 328 foot asteroid hitting earth could generate somewhere between a few hundred thousand and a few million atomic bombs' worth of energy.None of which would be particularly devastating on a planetary scale, in the sense that the ground beneath out feet would barely register such an impact. But the thin layer of habitable surface where most or all of the world's life exists, certainly does. And that's the other issue here, is that on top of even a relatively small asteroid being a city-killer, wiping out everyone and everything in a large area around where it strikes, it can also cause longer-term devastation by hurling a bunch of water and soil and detritus and dust and ash into the atmosphere, acting as a cloak around the planet, messing with agriculture, messing with growth patterns and other cycles for plants and animals; the water and heat cycles completely thrown off. All of which can cause other knock-on effects, like more severe storms in unusual places, periods of famine, and even conflict over scarcer resources.What I'd like to talk about today is a recently discovered asteroid that is being called a potential city-killer, and which is raising alarms in the planetary defense world because of its relatively high likelihood of hitting earth in 2032.—Asteroid 2024 YR4 is thought to be around 130-300 feet, which is about 40-90m in diameter, and it has what's called an Earth-crossing, or Apollo-type orbit. Asteroids with this type of orbit won't necessarily ever intersect with earth, and some are incredibly unlikely to ever do so. But some relatively few of them, that we're aware of, anyway, have orbits that periodically get really close to earth's, to the point that even a small tweak to their orbit, caused by gravitational perturbances or maybe being nudged by something else in space, could put them on course to cause a lot of damage.Global astronomical bodies keep tabs on these sorts of asteroids, and they keep an especially close eye on what are called PHAs, or potentially hazardous asteroids, because they are objects that are close-ish to Earth, are in orbits that could bring them even closer, perhaps even on an intersection path with earth at some point, and they have an absolute magnitude of 22 or brighter, which means they're big enough to be fairly visible to our instruments, and that generally means they'll be 500 feet or around 140m in diameter or larger, which puts them in the “will cause severe damage if it hits earth” category.That latter component of the definition is important, as while the Chelyabinsk meteor that blew up in what's called an air burst over southwestern Russia in 2013 caused a lot of damage—generating about 400-500 kilotonnes of TNT worth of energy, about 30-times the energy released by the atomic bomb that blew up Hiroshima, resulting in a shock wave that injured nearly 1,500 people sufficiently that they had to seek medical attention, alongside all the broken glass and thousands of damaged buildings caused by that shockwave (which in turn caused those injuries)—that meteor is considered to be pretty tame compared to what we would expect from a larger impact. It was only about 60 feet, around 18m in diameter.That's part of why asteroid 2024 YR4 is getting so much attention; it's more than twice, maybe as much as five times that large, and current orbital models suggest that on December 22, 2032, it has a small chance of hitting earth.Small is a relative term here, though, both in the sense that the exact likelihood figure keeps changing, and will continue to do so as we're able to capture more data leading up to that near-future deadline, and in the sense that even very small possibilities that a city-killer asteroid will hit earth is something that we should arguably be worried about, out of proportion to the smallness of the statistical likelihood.If you are told there's a 1% chance you'll die today, that means there's a 99% chance you won't, but that 1% chance is still really substantial in the context of living or not living.Similarly, a 1% chance of a large asteroid impacting earth is considered to be substantial because that means a 1% chance that a city could be completely wiped out, along with all the maybe millions of people living in it, all the plants an animals in the region, too, and we could see all those aforementioned weather effects, atmospheric issues, and so on, for a long time into the future.At the moment, as of the day I'm recording this, there's a 2.2% chance this asteroid will hit earth on that day, December 22, 2032. Its likely impact zone, if it were to hit, stretches roughly along the equator, from just south of Mexico, across upper south america and the middle of africa, over to eastern India. If it's on the larger side of current estimates, it's possible that its blast could stretch for 31 miles in all directions from where it hits, because it's a hard object the size of a large building traveling at around 38,000 miles per hour.So just shy of 7 years, 11 months from now, which is around 2,870 days, that thing could plow into a span of earth that contains quite a few major cities—but it could also hit a stretch of ocean, causing a separate set of problems, ranging from tsunamis to borked weather patterns and loads of sun-concealing, globe-spanning cloud cover.Again, though, the numbers here are weird because of the things they're describing. Nearly 8 years is a long time in many ways, but if you're staring down the barrel of a potentially city-killing asteroid, that begins to feel like not long at all; Bruce Willis only had 18 days, but he also lived in the world of Hollywood fantasy. In real life, spinning up that kind of mission takes a lot longer, and that's after you settle on who's going to pay for some kind of asteroid killing or deflecting program, how it's going to work, and so on.Fortunately for everyone involved, back in late-2022, NASA launched a project called the Double Asteroid Redirection Test, or DART, which entailed launching a spacecraft that rendezvoused with pair of asteroids with a known trajectory. That spacecraft shot an impacter, basically a little space bullet, at one of the asteroids, which allowed the craft, along with a supplementary satellite, to collect all sorts of data about what happened to the asteroid after it was hit.The hope was that using this method, launching a craft that shoots space bullets at asteroids, we would be able to reduce the target asteroid's orbit by 73 seconds, which is an orbital measurement. Instead, it shortened it by 32 minutes, which is way, way more, and generally considered to be a huge success beyond what the mission planners could have hoped for.Not all of what was learned from the DART mission will be transferable to other possible missions, because asteroids have different compositions, have different spins and speeds, and some will be easier to hit than others, and to hit in a way that would move them beneficially: we want to move them away from a path that lines up with earth's orbit, not in such a way that a strike becomes more likely.But this success suggests that it may be possible to basically nudge asteroids away from a collision trajectory with our planet, rather than having to blow the things up with nukes, which would be a far more involved and dangerous undertaking.We've also seen the costs associated with space launches drop dramatically over the past ten years, to the point where launching this sort of mission will cost a fraction of what it would have cost back in the 90s, which is fortunate, as historically governments have shown less enthusiasm for firing space bullets than for firing bullets planet-side, so if worse comes to worse, there's a chance even a beneficent billionaire, maybe even a millionaire, could fund such a project in a pinch.At the moment, it's still overwhelmingly likely that asteroid 2024 YR4 will miss earth in 2032. A 2.2% chance of an impact is worrying, and we'll hopefully start building the infrastructure we need to deflect such objects sooner rather than later, as even if we don't end up using said craft this time around, it seems prudent to have those sorts of missions ready to go at a moment's notice, should we someday find ourselves in an Armageddon situation, with only a few weeks before something really, really bad happens.That said, even with today's quite high likelihood, that still means there's a 97.8% chance it won't be anything to worry about. We should know a fair bit more by April of this year, after which point this asteroid will be really far away and thus trickier to see until 2028, when it loops back in our direction.There would still be time to do something about it then, if warranted, but more time is typically better with this sort of thing—again, because we want to be sure any deflection attempt is successfully launched, but also that it deflects it away from us, not toward us. And our best bet to deflect would be during that 2028 close flyby, so it's likely by April, or just after that, we'll have some kind of decision by the folks in charge about whether to launch a deflection mission in 2028 or thereabouts.All of which would be historic, but would also probably be a good idea and a worthwhile investment, wherever this specific asteroid's path ends up taking it. As our space neighborhood is rich with these sorts of rocks and other astronomical bodies, and because, as our in-space sensory assets have become more numerous and sophisticated, we've been able to see just how lucky we are, that we haven't had more horrible impacts, so far; there's a lot of stuff flying around out there, and the moon probably helps by taking some of those bullets for us, but even with that extra layer of natural protection, we might want to play a more active role in managing our orbital neighborhood, soon, as it would be really embarrassing to have all this knowledge and these capacities, but to not be able to use them when we need them because we failed to plan ahead.Show Noteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Earth-crossing_asteroidshttps://cneos.jpl.nasa.gov/about/neo_groups.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelyabinsk_meteorhttps://x.com/Astro_Jonny/status/1886742128199336362https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_YR4https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/science/asteroid-yr4-2024-impact-odds.htmlhttps://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/02/08/asteroid-hitting-earth-2032-nasa/78322607007/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/99942_Apophishttps://science.nasa.gov/solar-system/asteroids/2024-yr4/https://www.cbsnews.com/news/asteroid-2024-yr4-chance-hit-earth-what-to-know/https://blogs.nasa.gov/planetarydefense/2025/02/07/nasa-continues-to-monitor-orbit-of-near-earth-asteroid-2024-yr4/https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-confirms-dart-mission-impact-changed-asteroids-motion-in-space/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Asteroid_Redirection_Testhttps://science.nasa.gov/mission/dart/https://www.space.com/nasa-dart-mission-dimorphos-didymos-asteroid-impact-reshapinghttps://www.cnn.com/2024/02/27/world/nasa-dart-dimorphos-impact-scn/index.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIDA_(international_space_cooperation)https://www.planetary.org/notable-asteroid-impacts-in-earths-historyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_water_on_Earthhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theia_(planet)https://science.nasa.gov/earth/deep-impact-and-the-mass-extinction-of-species-65-million-years-ago/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicxulub_craterhttps://www.lpi.usra.edu/publications/books/barringer_crater_guidebook/chapter_11.pdfhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armageddon_(1998_film)https://www.history.com/news/7-major-asteroids-strikes-in-earths-historyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_eventhttps://world-nuclear.org/information-library/safety-and-security/non-proliferation/hiroshima-nagasaki-and-subsequent-weapons-testinhttps://www.astronomy.com/science/earths-greatest-hits-a-history-of-asteroid-impacts/ This is a public episode.

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 154*The Moon's Age: A New PerspectiveNew research suggests the Moon may be much older than previously believed. Evidence indicates the Moon's crust underwent extensive remelting around 4.35 billion years ago, obscuring its true age. This study proposes the Moon could be as old as 4.53 billion years, challenging past estimates and offering a new understanding of its formation.*Perseverance Rover's New HorizonsNASA's Perseverance rover has reached the top of Jezero Crater's rim, marking a significant milestone in its mission. With the climb complete, the rover is set to explore new geological terrains, potentially uncovering some of the oldest rocks in the solar system. This new phase promises to deepen our understanding of Mars' ancient history.*Unveiling South Australia's Pink Sands MysteryThe discovery of deep pink sands on South Australian beaches has provided insights into the tectonic history of the region. These findings, published in Communications Earth and Environment, suggest the existence of an ancient Antarctic mountain range, offering clues about the geological past of the supercontinent Gondwana.00:00 This is space Time Series 27, Episode 154 for broadcast on 23 December 202400:47 New research suggests Earth's moon may be an awful lot older than previously thought07:05 NASA's Mars Perseverance Rover has completed its long climb to summit10:51 Deep pink sands washing up on South Australian beaches reveal previously unknown mountain range19:05 Garnets are a metamorphic mineral which grows when deep in crust20:51 Ambulance and taxi drivers have lowest death rate from Alzheimer's22:57 New study finds men are quicker to buy drinks when women are scarcewww.spacetimewithstuartgary.comwww.bitesz.com
