In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into the latest astronomical discoveries and the implications for future space exploration.New Interstellar Visitor: Comet 3I AtlasAstronomers have identified a new interstellar object, designated 3I Atlas, which is currently traversing our solar system. Discovered by NASA's ATLAS telescope in Chile, this comet is approximately 670 million kilometers away and poses no threat to Earth, as it will pass at a safe distance of 240 million kilometers. With a velocity exceeding 51 kilometers per second, 3I Atlas is only the third confirmed interstellar visitor, following the enigmatic Oumuamua and the more familiar comet 2I/Borisov. As observations continue, scientists are eager to learn more about its origins and characteristics.China's Ambitious Mars Sample Return MissionSpeculation is mounting that China may outpace the U.S. and Europe in the race to return the first samples from Mars. The recently announced Tianwen 3 mission aims to collect Martian samples and bring them back to Earth for detailed analysis, potentially revealing whether life ever existed on the Red Planet. This mission follows China's successful deployment of the Zhurong rover and highlights the ongoing competition in space exploration. Scientists will need to target specific locations on Mars to collect samples that could provide insights into the planet's past habitability.Vera C Rubin Observatory's Stunning First ImagesAstronomers are thrilled by the first images released by the Vera C Rubin Observatory, which features an 8.4-meter telescope and a 3,200-megapixel camera. This observatory is set to conduct the world's largest sky survey over the next decade, generating an astonishing 20 terabytes of data each night. The Legacy Survey of Space and Time will provide unprecedented insights into cosmic phenomena, including asteroids, supernovae, and the mysteries of dark matter and dark energy. Australian astronomers are collaborating in this global effort, processing and analyzing the vast amounts of data generated.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNASA ATLAShttps://www.nasa.gov/China's Tianwen 3 Missionhttps://www.space.com/china-mars-sample-return-tianwen-3Vera C Rubin Observatoryhttps://www.lsst.org/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

China's Tianwen 2 asteroid sampling spacecraft has been on its interplanetary itinerary for more than 33 days, orbiting at a distance of over 12 million kilometers from Earth, and it is in good working condition, the China National Space Administration said on Tuesday. 中国国家航天局周二表示,中国 “天问二号” 小行星采样探测器已在星际旅程中飞行超过 33 天,目前距离地球超过 1200 万公里,工作状态良好。 The robotic probe is currently traveling on a transfer trajectory toward its destination, a near-Earth asteroid called 2016 HO3, the space administration said in a news release. 国家航天局在新闻发布会上称,这台机器人探测器目前正沿着转移轨道飞向其目标 —— 一颗名为 2016 HO3 的近地小行星。 The CNSA also released two images, showing Earth and the moon, captured by the spacecraft's narrow-field-of-view navigation sensor when it was about 590,000 km away from Earth. 中国国家航天局还发布了两张地球和月球的图像,这些图像是探测器在距离地球约 59 万公里时,由其窄视场导航传感器拍摄的。 The Tianwen 2 mission, which is China's first attempt to bring pristine asteroid samples back to Earth, was launched on May 29, when a Long March 3B rocket carrying the robotic probe blasted off from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan province. “天问二号” 任务是中国首次尝试将原始小行星样本带回地球,该探测器于 5 月 29 日由长征三号乙运载火箭搭载,从四川西昌卫星发射中心发射升空。 The probe's primary objective is to reach 2016 HO3, a small asteroid that is 40 to 100 meters wide, in the summer of 2026. It will study the celestial body up close using a suite of 11 instruments including cameras, spectrometers and radars, before deploying special devices to collect surface substances. 该探测器的主要目标是在 2026 年夏季抵达 2016 HO3 小行星。这颗小行星宽度为 40 至 100 米,探测器将使用包括相机、光谱仪和雷达在内的 11 种仪器对其进行近距离研究,随后部署特殊设备采集表面物质。 The asteroid, which is also known as 469219 Kamo'oalewa, orbits the sun and, therefore, is a constant companion of Earth. It is too distant to be considered a true satellite of Earth, but is the best and most stable example to date of a quasi-satellite.这颗小行星又名 469219 Kamo'oalewa,它围绕太阳运行,因此始终是地球的 “同伴”。由于距离过远,它不能被视为地球真正的卫星,但却是迄今为止最理想、最稳定的准卫星例子。 After the asteroid samples are collected, the Tianwen 2 probe will fly back to Earth's orbit and send a capsule containing the precious materials to the ground. 采集小行星样本后,“天问二号” 探测器将飞回地球轨道,并将装有这些珍贵物质的返回舱送回地面。 The samples will be distributed among scientists, who will examine their physical properties, chemical and mineralogical content and isotopic composition, contributing to studies on the formation and evolution of asteroids and the early solar system. 这些样本将分发给科学家,他们将对样本的物理性质、化学和矿物成分以及同位素组成进行研究,为小行星和早期太阳系的形成与演化研究提供助力。 Delivering the samples to Earth will not be the end of the mission. The Tianwen 2 spacecraft will then enter the second phase of its journey, flying toward a main-belt comet called 311P to conduct a remote-sensing survey and transmit the data back to Earth for scientific research, according to the CNSA. 将样本送回地球并非任务的终点。中国国家航天局表示,“天问二号” 探测器随后将进入任务的第二阶段,飞向一颗名为 311P 的主带彗星,进行遥感探测,并将数据传回地球供科研使用。 The whole mission is expected to yield groundbreaking discoveries and expand the understanding of Earth and small celestial bodies inside the solar system, scientists said.科学家表示,整个任务有望取得突破性发现,加深人类对地球以及太阳系内小天体的认识。 asteroid /ˈæstərɔɪd/ 小行星 probe /prəʊb/ 探测器 trajectory /trəˈdʒektəri/ 轨道;轨迹 isotopic /ˌaɪsəˈtɒpɪk/ 同位素的

В този епизод Никола и Петко ни транспортират в дълбокия вакуум на най-новите събития от света на космическите технологии и амбиции: • iSpace с втори опит за кацане на Луната - японската компания iSpace не се отказва лесно. След неуспешния си първи опит миналата година, този път апаратът Resilience е на път да влезе в историята. Ще стане ли Япония третата държава, постигнала меко кацане на Луната чрез частен играч? • Starship – Полет №9 - най-мощната ракета, създавана някога, излетя и... отново се разпадна. Въпреки че мисията не завърши безпроблемно, полетът даде ценни данни за бъдещите амбиции на SpaceX. Какво работи, какво не, и защо този „неуспех“ всъщност е крачка напред? • Китай стартира мисия до древен астероид - Tianwen-2 вече е на път към астероид, за който се смята, че е „жив фосил“ от началото на Слънчевата система. Какво цели да научи мисията и защо тя е значима не само за Китай, но и за цялата планетарна наука? • EnduroSat с нова инжекция от €43 млн - българската компания EnduroSat привлече сериозно финансиране с амбицията да масово произвежда по-големи и по-умни сателити. Какво означава това за родната космическа индустрия и можем ли да очакваме още по-смели проекти?

The China National Space Administration says the Tianwen-2 probe has been operating smoothly in orbit for over eight days, reaching a distance of over three million kilometers from Earth.
As of Friday morning, the Tianwen-2 probe had been operating smoothly in orbit for over eight days, reaching a distance of more than 3 million kilometers from Earth, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA) Friday.中国国家航天局在周五早上表示,截至当天上午,天问二号探测器已在轨平稳运行逾8天,距地球超过300万公里。The CNSA also released an image captured by the probe, showing one unfolded solar panel.该局同时公布了探测器拍摄的太阳翼展开实拍图像。China launched its first asteroid sample-return mission, Tianwen-2, on May 29, an endeavour to shed light on the formation and evolution of asteroids and the early solar system.我国于5月29日发射首个行星采样返回任务“天问二号”,旨在揭示小行星及太阳系早期的形成演化机制。The Tianwen-2 mission aims to achieve multiple goals over a decade-long expedition: collecting samples from the near-Earth asteroid 2016HO3 and exploring the main-belt comet 311P, which is more distant than Mars.本次任务计划通过为期十年的深空探测实现多个目标:采集近地小行星2016HO3的样本,并探索比火星更遥远的主带彗星311P。To meet the power demands during the deep-space voyage, the Tianwen-2 probe is equipped with circular, flexible solar panels. 为满足深空航行中的能源需求,天问二号探测器配备了圆形柔性太阳翼。the Tianwen-2 probe天问二号探测器the China National Space Administration中国国家航天局asteroidn.小行星expeditionn.探险(队);远征;短途旅行sample/ˈsɑːmpl/n.样品;样本
The White House has released its Fiscal Year 2026 congressional budget justification for NASA, and the implications are staggering. If enacted, this proposal would slash NASA’s science program funding by nearly half, cancel dozens of active and upcoming missions, and reduce the agency’s workforce by one-third. Sarah Al-Ahmed is joined by Jack Kiraly, The Planetary Society’s director of government relations, to examine what’s in the nearly 500-page document, what it means for the future of space science and exploration, and how advocates can still act to save NASA science. Then, in What’s Up, Planetary Society Chief Scientist Bruce Betts shares insights on China’s newly launched asteroid sample return mission, Tianwen-2. The spacecraft will rendezvous with near-Earth asteroid 469219 Kamoʻoalewa, offering new scientific opportunities amidst a moment of global uncertainty in space exploration.

A finales de este mes, China se apuntará un nuevo éxito espacial con el lanzamiento de la misión Tianwen-2, una ambiciosa expedición que tiene como objetivo un pequeño asteroide llamado 469219 Kamo‘oalewa. Un asteroide, por cierto, que no es como los demas. Se trata, en efecto, de uno de los siete cuasi-satélites conocidos de la Tierra y, lo que es aún más fascinante, podría ser el primer asteroide que vemos hecho exclusivamente de material lunar. Esta hipótesis, que pondría en jaque mucho de lo que sabemos sobre los impactos cósmicos, podría ser confirmada por los estudios de laboratorio de los fragmentos que Tianwen-2 recolectará y traerá de vuelta a la Tierra en aproximadamente dos años y medio.
I denne uge skal vi blandt andet høre om magnetisme på Månen, exomåner i kredsløb om fjerne planeter, og et rumskrot-skjold på den kinesiske Tiangong-rumstation. Og i vores hovedhistorie sætter vi fokus på en helt aktuel politisk begivenhed, nemlig den høring om den danske rumstrategi, der fandt sted på Christiansborg her onsdag den 28. maj. Den var Erhvervsudvalget som sammen med Uddannelses- og Forskningsudvalget havde inviteret til det de kaldte "en åben høring om Danmarks rumstrategi med fokus på rumforskning, rumteknologi og de kommercielle muligheder, der ligger heri."

China lanzó Tianwen-2 para traer rocas de un cuasi-satélite y estudiar un cometa que lanza polvo sin hieloPor Félix Riaño @LocutorCo La misión Tianwen-2 buscará entender el origen del agua en la Tierra y revelar secretos del sistema solar. China lanzó una sonda espacial que va a recorrer millones de kilómetros para estudiar dos cuerpos celestes que nunca antes habían sido visitados: un asteroide cercano a la Tierra que podría ser un trozo de la Luna, y un cometa con múltiples colas de polvo que gira en medio del cinturón de asteroides. La misión Tianwen-2 tiene dos metas científicas y una duración estimada de diez años. El asteroide se llama Kamoʻoalewa, un cuasi-satélite terrestre, y el cometa se llama 311P/PANSTARRS, una rareza con apariencia de cometa pero comportamiento de asteroide. ¿Qué pistas sobre el origen del agua en la Tierra podría darnos esta misión china? Una roca vecina con pasado lunar Kamoʻoalewa fue descubierto en 2016 por el telescopio Pan-STARRS en Hawái. Su nombre significa “fragmento que viaja solo” en hawaiano, y eso encaja perfectamente con lo que es: un pequeño objeto de entre 40 y 100 metros de diámetro que orbita el Sol, pero lo hace casi sincronizado con la Tierra, como si fuera una luna temporal. Algunos estudios apuntan a que este cuasi-satélite podría haber sido un pedazo de la Luna expulsado por un impacto hace millones de años. Por eso, si la misión logra traer muestras de él, podríamos compararlas con otras rocas lunares y confirmar su origen. Esa comparación podría reescribir parte de la historia del sistema Tierra-Luna.Pero hay un gran reto técnico A diferencia de la Luna, este asteroide tiene una gravedad extremadamente baja, lo que complica cualquier intento de aterrizaje. La sonda Tianwen-2 va a usar dos métodos para recolectar unos 100 gramos de polvo: uno de contacto rápido y otro que usa un anclaje con taladro. Esta segunda técnica nunca se ha intentado antes. El 29 de mayo de 2025, desde la provincia china de Sichuan, despegó el cohete Long March 3B con la nave Tianwen-2 a bordo. El plan es que en julio de 2026 llegue a Kamoʻoalewa, lo estudie durante un año y seleccione un sitio para recolectar muestras. En abril de 2027 la nave dejará el asteroide y enviará una cápsula con las muestras rumbo a la Tierra, que aterrizará en noviembre del mismo año. Ese será solo el primer capítulo. Después, la nave usará la gravedad de la Tierra como catapulta para continuar su viaje hacia otro destino completamente diferente: el cometa 311P/PANSTARRS, que orbita entre Marte y Júpiter. El cometa 311P/PANSTARRS, también llamado P/2013 P5, es especial. Aunque se le llama cometa, en realidad es un “asteroide activo”: un objeto rocoso que, por alguna razón, expulsa polvo como si tuviera una cola. Este en particular tiene seis colas visibles, y los científicos creen que eso puede deberse a que gira tan rápido que lanza fragmentos de su superficie al espacio. O tal vez, dicen algunos, hay presión interna o pequeños impactos que activan ese comportamiento. Como nunca antes se ha visitado un objeto así, Tianwen-2 va a ser la primera sonda que nos muestre con detalle qué está pasando allí. La nave no va a aterrizar en él, pero sí va a orbitarlo y analizar su composición desde 2035. Lo que hace única a Tianwen-2 no es solo su duración o los objetos que va a visitar, sino el tipo de datos que puede traer. Muestras directas de un cuasi-satélite son algo que ningún país ha obtenido antes. Y al comparar esas muestras con las de la Luna y con lo que sabemos del sistema solar temprano, podríamos confirmar si fragmentos lunares pueden quedar atrapados en órbitas cercanas. Por otro lado, el estudio de 311P nos va a ayudar a entender cómo se forman las colas de polvo sin necesidad de hielo, lo que cambia lo que creíamos saber sobre cometas y asteroides. China ya ha traído muestras de la Luna, incluso de su cara oculta. También tiene su propia estación espacial, y ahora va en camino a convertirse en el tercer país que logra traer muestras de un asteroide. Tianwen-2 es parte de una serie de misiones más amplias. En 2020, Tianwen-1 fue la primera misión china a Marte y logró posar un rover en su superficie. La futura Tianwen-3 buscará traer rocas marcianas en 2028. Y Tianwen-4 irá más lejos aún: rumbo a Júpiter y Urano. China también ha ofrecido a otros países incluir experimentos científicos en futuras misiones. Las muestras de Kamoʻoalewa, si se confirman como fragmentos lunares, podrían revelar si hay más objetos así en el espacio cercano, lo que abriría una nueva rama de estudio sobre los materiales expulsados por impactos y sus trayectorias. Tianwen-2 es una misión ambiciosa que busca traer muestras de un cuasi-satélite cercano y estudiar un cometa con múltiples colas.

China is aiming to join the small club of nations who have successfully returned scientific samples of asteroids for analysis on earth, teaching us more about how our and potentially other solar systems formed. Tianwen-2 launched successfully this week, bound for an asteroid known as Kamo‘oalewa, which sits in a very strange orbit of both the earth and the sun, making it a “quasi-satellite”. Last year, scientists including Patrick Michel of the Côte d'Azur Observatory in France, published an intriguing suggestion that Kamo‘oalewa might in fact not be a conventional asteroid, but instead be a small piece of our moon that was ejected when the Giordano Bruno crater formed. In a little over a year from now, we might find out if that is right.Do you have to hold text at arm's length to read properly? Qiang Zhang, professor of physics at the University of Science and Technology of China, whose team recently published their demonstration of using a technique from radio astronomy but using optical light. Active Optical Interferometry involves using laser beams to achieve resolutions at distances far in excess of conventional imaging with lenses. As his team showed, and as Miles Paggett of Glasgow University admires, they managed to read newsprint sized letters at a distance of over 1.3km.Finally, how did the Inca Empire write things down, and who did the writing? It has been thought that ornate threads of strings and baubles known as khipu are how records were made for business and administration, probably by a decimal code of knots in strings. But the exact purpose, nature and any meaning encoded therein, has eluded scholars for decades. Sabine Hyland, an anthropologist at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, has been studying them for years, and recently was granted access to the records of a village, only the fourth known, to have continued a form of the khipu tradition after the Spanish conquest to this day. She believes that they could even provide us in the modern world with valuable climate data.

China's Phased Asteroid Mission Strategy Bottom Line Up Front: China has developed an ambitious multi-phase approach to asteroid exploration and planetary defense, positioning itself as a major space power with systematic missions targeting asteroids, Mars, Jupiter, and potentially the outer solar system through 2050. Current Asteroid Missions (2025-2030) Tianwen-2 (2025): China will launch the Tianwen-2 mission to sample a near-Earth asteroid next year. The mission will first focus on sampling near-Earth asteroid Kamoʻoalewa (2016 HO3). After delivering samples to Earth, the spacecraft will use our planet for a gravitational slingshot maneuver and set it on a course for main-belt comet 311P/PANSTARRS. SpaceNewsSpace Planetary Defense Test (2025-2030): China is planning its first mission to impact an asteroid in the name of planetary defense. The mission will serve a dual purpose: One craft will impact the asteroid while its partner observes the space rock to learn more about the solar system and its formation. SpaceSpace China wants to test changing the orbit of a potentially hazardous asteroid with an impactor spacecraft and also accurately measure how much its orbit is altered. China will launch 2-in-1 asteroid deflection mission in 2025 | Space Expanding Solar System Dominance Strategy Deep Space Exploration Roadmap: China's plans for exploring the outer Solar System are taking shape, with Jupiter's moon Callisto and one of the ice giants the main targets. PlanetarySpaceNews China has unveiled a long-term planetary exploration roadmap for planetary habitability and the search for extraterrestrial life. China to seek out life in the solar system as NASA faces cuts, commercial players expand ambitions - SpaceNews Tianwen-4 Jupiter Mission (2029): Zhu's outline of the mission sees a Tianwen-4 launch in September 2029. The spacecraft will use a flyby of Venus in 2030 plus further gravity assists from Earth in 2031 and 2033, to arrive at Jupiter in December 2035. China's plans for outer Solar System exploration Ice Giant Missions (2035-2050): Zhu provides a potential launch date of 2035 for a Uranus mission, arriving in orbit in 2050. If a Neptune mission is chosen instead, it would launch in 2040 and arrive in 2058. China's plans for outer Solar System exploration Infrastructure and Capabilities Development Planetary Defense Force: China is recruiting for a planetary defense force to combat the threat of asteroids colliding with Earth. The successful candidates will be required to research tasks related to near-Earth asteroid monitoring and early warning systems. Wanted: 3 asteroid watchers for China's 'planetary defense force' Advanced Detection Systems: The "compound eye," a 25-antennae network of radars, is under construction to bounce signals off deep space objects to determine their potential threat to Earth. The project is set to be completed in 2025. China targets its first planetary defense test mission Strategic Implications Rick Fisher, a senior fellow at the International Assessment and Strategy Center, has been analyzing China's space ambitions extensively. Rick Fisher talks about China's growing space ambitions—from the Moon, to Mars, to asteroids. Throughout the program, Rick talked about Chinese space policy, goals, objectives, hardware, all of it, as tools of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and as an implement of the PLA (People's Liberation Army). NTDThespaceshow China's systematic approach includes not just exploration but potential dual-use capabilities, advanced manufacturing in space (including plans for a lunar base by the 2030s Space-Based Solar Power and 21st-Century Geopolitical Competition | RealClearDefense and space-based solar power), and the development of comprehensive planetary defense systems that could have both protective and offensive applications. This represents a coordinated strategy to establish Chinese leadership across the solar system through the combination of scientific exploration, resource utilization, and strategic positioning—what some analysts view as China's bid to become the dominant space power of the 21st century.

A Chinese spacecraft that’s scheduled for launch as early as next month has a double destination: a “quasi-moon” of Earth and an asteroid that acts like a comet. The first destination for Tianwen-2 is an asteroid, Kamo’oalewa. It’s a chunk of rock no more than the length of two or three football fields. What makes it intriguing is that it weaves around the Sun in a pattern that makes it look like a satellite of Earth. The asteroid spends half of its time farther from the Sun than Earth is, the other half closer to the Sun. Seen from Earth, it appears to loop around our planet – like a moon. Some research suggests it was a chunk of the Moon that was blasted into space by a big impact. Tianwen-2 is scheduled to arrive at Kamo’oalewa next year. It’ll spend a year traveling along with the asteroid. It’ll drop off a small lander and rover, and collect a few ounces of rocks and dirt. The craft will swing by Earth to drop off the samples, then journey to 311P Panstarrs. The object is a third of a mile wide, and orbits the Sun at about twice Earth’s distance. Observations reveal that Panstarrs is rocky, like an asteroid. But soon after it was discovered it sprouted several long tails, so it was classified as a comet. It may be a loosely bound pile of rocks and dust. If so, it may sometimes lose some of the dust, and sunlight then pushes it away – giving this asteroid the tails of a comet.

Happy Halloween! In this special episode of The LIUniverse, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome back archaeology expert Hannah Liu, MEd to bring a scientific eye to the holiday and some of its most familiar denizens: witches, werewolves, zombies, black cats and even the Great Galactic Ghoul! As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing: Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS). You'll learn all about this visitor from the Oort Cloud, including how we know where it came from. Hannah talks about how ancient people responded to the arrival of a comet, including how leaders have used them for their own political purposes, and Charles brings up the inclusion of Halley's Comet on the Bayeux tapestry. Then it's time for Chuck to introduce our theme for this special episode: how the superstitions of the past interact with the mysteries of science. You'll hear from Hannah about the history of Halloween and its beginning as the Druidic celebration of Sawen (or Samhain) marking the end of the harvest season. Jumping ahead in history, we look at the Salem Witch Trials of the 17th Century, and the “science” that was used to condemn innocent young women to death for behaviors the powers that be disapproved of. You'll also get serious answers to spooky questions like “Do full moons affect behavior?” (We're talking the behavior of moths, sea turtles and humans, rather than werewolves, although we do actually get into the possible origins of the wolfman myth as embodied in the Greek myth of Zeus and Lycaon with a minor digression into D&D and legendary DJ Wolfman Jack.) After witches and werewolves, what else could we talk about next than zombies? In this case, natural zombie spiders created by the sting of a parasitic Tarantula Hawk wasp, or zombie ants that have been infected by the fungus Ophiocordyceps unilateralis. And yes, somehow The Walking Dead and The Last of Us shamble into the discussion, although regarding the latter, Allen explains why cordyceps probably couldn't survive in a human host. Next up, we look at the connection between black cats and the holiday. Hannah brings up the traditions of cats as “Witch's Familiars” and shapeshifters, and Chuck reminds us of the moment when we saw a cat transform into Professor McGonagall in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. You'll hear about how STS-13, which was slated to be the thirteenth mission of the Space Shuttle, was renamed STS-41-C, in an attempt to avoid any superstition or reminder of the ill-fated Apollo 13. There was an alternate mission patch that featured an illustration of the shuttle landing under a giant black cat, referencing the mission's original designation, STS-13; and that the day the mission returned was April 13, 1984, which was a Friday the 13th. Speaking of space, Hannah asks Chuck about the concept of “The Great Galactic Ghoul,” the fictitious space monster blamed for the failure of nearly every probe sent to Mars by the Soviet Union, Japan, and even NASA between 1988 and 1999. Out of 10 missions, only 2 US probes landed successfully on the Red Planet. Since then, while the Ghoul did claim a few more victims including two missions by the UK, it seems to have gone into hiding, since the US has had multiple successful missions, as has China with their Tianwen lander and Zhurong rover, India, Russia, the European Space Agency, and the UAE. Finally, to end our special HaLIUween episode, Chuck brings up Albert Einstein's term, “Spooky Action at a Distance,” which he coined derisively to describe the physics concept known as quantum entanglement that he dismissed but has since been proven to exist.

Astronomy Daily - The Podcast: 2nd September 2024Welcome to another episode of Astronomy Daily from Downunder. It's Steve here, bringing you the latest space and astronomy news on this second day of spring and September 2024. We've got a mixed bag of stories for you this week, from China's high-resolution map of Mars to SpaceX's Falcon 9 mishap, and much more. Let's dive right in!Highlights:- SpaceX Falcon 9 Mishap: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has cleared SpaceX to restart its Falcon 9 launches following an investigation into a rare mishap during a first stage booster landing. The booster tipped over and exploded while attempting to land on a droneship off the Florida coast. Despite the mishap, the mission successfully delivered 21 Starlink Internet satellites into orbit. This incident ended a streak of over three years of successful booster landings.- NASA's Solar Sail Deployment: NASA's advanced composite solar sail system has successfully deployed in space. Launched on Rocket Lab's Electron vehicle, the solar sail reached full deployment on August 29. This innovative technology uses sunlight to guide its path through space and will be tested for maneuverability in the coming weeks. The data gathered will help design future solar sail missions for space weather monitoring, asteroid reconnaissance, and more.- Europa Clipper's Solar Arrays: NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft has been fitted with gigantic solar arrays at the Kennedy Space Center. These arrays, each measuring 14.2 meters in length, are the largest ever developed by NASA for a planetary mission. They will help power the spacecraft as it investigates Jupiter's icy moon Europa, aiming to determine if its subsurface ocean could support life. The spacecraft is scheduled to launch on October 10 and will arrive at Jupiter in 2030.- China's High-Resolution Mars Map: China's Tianwen-1 mission has created the first high-resolution global color map of Mars. Developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, this map has a spatial resolution greater than 1 km and could support future crewed missions to Mars. The map was created using countless remote sensing images acquired by the Tianwen-1 orbiter.- Boeing's Starliner Return: NASA has announced that Boeing's Starliner capsule will depart the International Space Station no earlier than September 6. The capsule, which has faced multiple delays and technical issues, will return to Earth uncrewed. Astronauts Sonny Williams and Butch Wilmore, who were originally scheduled to return on Starliner, will now come back aboard a SpaceX Dragon capsule in February next year.- DART Mission Debris: Debris from NASA's DART mission, which tested a kinetic impact to nudge an asteroid, could potentially reach Earth and Mars. While it's unlikely we'll see a meteor shower on Earth, the debris could result in meteors on Mars. The DART mission successfully shortened the orbit of the asteroid Dimorphos around its parent asteroid Didymos.For more space news, be sure to visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

The 365 Days of Astronomy, the daily podcast of the International Year of Astronomy 2009
From Jun 22, 2023. In general, the kind of year we'll experience gets its label at the end of the year. 2005 was the year of the never-ending hurricane season. 2017 was the year we experienced an eclipse and lost Cassini. 2020 was the year satellite constellations went from a handful to hundreds of spacecraft. 2022 was the year of Mars exploration with Curiosity, Percy, Ginny, Insight, and Tianwen-1. Each year gets to define itself, and it is up to us to fight or embrace what that year brings us. This year, 2023, is still young, but I'm going to guess that come January 2024, this will be the year of Io.

With all the excitement of this month in full swing - Hope Probe, Tianwen-1, and next up, Perseverance - it seemed only fitting to dedicate an episode to all things Mars! Enjoy this special, early-release episode with "professional martian" and Director of Science Strategy at Planet, Dr. Tanya Harrison. We discuss the significance of the upcoming Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover Landing on February 18th, how to bring positive change to toxic work cultures in the space industry, and Dr. Harrison's new book, For All Humankind: The Untold Stories of How the Moon Landing Inspired the World. My guest on the show, Dr. Tanya Harrison, calls herself a “professional martian.” Over the past 13 years she has worked as a scientist and in mission operations on multiple NASA Mars missions, including the Perseverance, Curiosity, and Opportunity rovers. Her specialty lies in geomorphology: the study of a planet's evolution based on its surface features. She holds a Ph.D. in Geology from the University of Western Ontario, a Masters in Earth and Environmental Sciences from Wesleyan University, and a B.Sc. in Astronomy and Physics from the University of Washington. Currently she is the Director of Science Strategy for the federal arm of the Earth observing satellite company Planet Labs. Tanya is also an advocate for advancing the status of women in science and for accessibility in the geosciences. You can find her prolifically tweeting about the Red Planet—and her experiences with both #WomenInSTEM and #DisabledInSTEM—as @tanyaofmars.Support the show (https://donorbox.org/celestial-citizen)
