Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From July 2025. Today's 2 topics: - When Asteroid hunters discover a new object it is given a score ranging from 0 which means it is likely to be a distant main belt asteroid up to 100 which means that it is likely to come near to us. Each newly discovered asteroid which receives a score of 65 or greater is posted on the Minor Planet Center's Near Earth Object Confirmation Page so that telescopes around the world can track it to estimate it's size as well as to refine our knowledge of it's orbit around the Sun.   - The energy required to lift water, food, and construction materials from the Earth's surface is very expensive. Asteroids come relatively close to Earth and could provide space colonists with metals, carbon, water, and the other important ingredients of modern life. Most space rocks like most terrestrial rocks may be pretty and interesting but they are not a practical source of the materials humans use and need.   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!

What started as a nine-day motorcycle trip through Bosnia, Croatia and Slovenia took a sudden and serious turn. Riding the TET, Philipp Amann and his friends were well into their journey when one of the riders fell ill but insisted on continuing. When he made the decision to turn back, his friends chose to ride with him, unaware of how quickly his condition was deteriorating. It's a story about good intentions, missed signs, and the importance of recognizing when it's time to stop.

Ready to order coffee without pointing, find the station without panic, and ask for help without freezing? We sat down with language coach David Durham to build a traveler's toolkit of Spanish you'll actually use in real life—from warm greetings to confident check requests, from essential directions to emergency phrases that keep you safe.We start with the why: Spanish connects you across Mexico, Central and South America, Spain, and large parts of the United States. David explains the smartest starting point for most listeners—Latin American Spanish—then unpacks the charming differences you'll hear in Spain, like gracias vs grathias, so you understand what's going on without getting lost in rules. You'll learn how gender shapes adjectives and articles, when to use tú vs usted, and how a single switch from yo quiero to quisiera transforms an order into a kind request that earns better service and more smiles.From there, we move fast through practical scripts. Introduce yourself with me llamo, keep conversations smooth with lo siento and no entiendo, and navigate confidently with ¿Dónde está…? for the station, market, bank, pharmacy, airport, and, yes, the all-important baño. We cover everyday ordering—un café con leche, agua con gas, helado, pan—plus numbers and time so you can read prices, bargain fairly, and show up on time. Safety gets space too: ayuda and llame a la policía give you clear words when you need them most. Along the way, David shares cultural tips that turn phrases into bridges, reminding us that respect and a simple por favor go a long way.If you want to go deeper, David's World to the Wise platform offers video-based French and Spanish courses and curated cultural tours. Come learn the Spanish that opens doors, wins goodwill, and makes travel feel less like guessing and more like belonging.

In this episode, we're talking about the real-life logistics of being a working mom who travels — and how communication and help make it all possible.   My former manager, who showed me the ropes when it comes to work travel, shares how her career has taken her on the road for years, and what she's learned about staying connected with her family while she's away. From managing calendars to planning ahead (and letting go of perfection), we dive into what it really takes to leave your family.   We also talk about how asking for help isn't a weakness — it's a strategy. Whether it's coordinating with your partner, leaning on friends, or being upfront with your employer, clear communication and support are what keep things running smoothly.   If you've ever packed a suitcase while double-checking the school lunch menu, this episode will remind you that you're not alone — and that there's no one right way to make it all work.   ==========================

Xochitl Rodriguez, Chicago Department of Aviation ADA Coordinator joins Lisa Dent on the show to talk about how the city now offers maps, guides to prepare neurodivergent travelers for sensory overload at airports. Learn more at flychicago.com.

I first encountered biometric screening at Abu Dhabi airport a few years ago. The gate scanned my face, flashed green, and opened without a word. No officer, no passport, no human exchange. It felt like the quiet birth of a new border, one that recognized me before I even knew what it was measuring. Since then, I've seen the same shift take shape in Toronto, Dublin, and Abu Dhabi alike. Canada now pilots facial recognition at key airports, linking travel data to border and customs systems. Ireland, too, is modernizing its ports of entry under EU data-sharing rules that quietly weave personal identity into digital infrastructure. The logic is identical across continents: seamless travel, better security, fewer errors. Travelers have always accepted a trade between convenience and control. Once, that meant belts off and passports out. Now, it's a lens capturing a face in seconds. The passport is no longer held it's scanned, stored, and shared. The pitch is progress: shorter queues, safer skies, smarter borders. The question that lingers is simple but unresolved, where does the data go once we're through? The Race for Seamless Borders The European Union's Entry/Exit System is one of the most ambitious identity projects of the decade. Instead of stamping passports, border posts now record fingerprints and facial images from non-EU travelers. In theory, this will speed up crossings and make overstays easier to detect. Early pilots, however, reveal the usual teething pains: slow queues, system resets, and confusion about consent. Across the Atlantic, the United States has been using facial comparison for years at airports and land crossings. Cameras automatically match travelers to their passport photos within seconds. Similar programs are spreading through Canada, the UK, and the Middle East. Singapore's Changi Airport already allows residents to board flights without showing a passport, using only a face and iris scan. To airlines and authorities, this system is irresistible. A single biometric token can replace multiple checks. One face equals one verified identity. The result: shorter waits and fewer human errors. The Promise of Speed When it works well, biometric travel feels frictionless. Passengers move through e-gates without fumbling for papers. Families clear security faster. Airline staff are freed from repetitive verification. Governments can process millions more travelers with fewer officers. Accuracy has also improved. Modern facial recognition algorithms can verify identity in a fraction of a second, and error rates have dropped sharply over the past decade. Combined with fingerprint or iris scans, false matches are now rare. In public messaging, officials cite these figures as proof that technology can safely replace manual checks. This argument resonates in a world that prizes efficiency. After years of pandemic-era bottlenecks, any solution that restores smooth movement feels like progress. But the speed comes at a price few travelers see clearly. The Data We Leave Behind Every face scanned at a border is added to a record. Each record contains personal information, a photo, and sometimes fingerprints. In some regions, that data is stored for years. While authorities frame this as necessary for security and visa management, the sheer scale of collection raises concern. Privacy advocates question how much control travelers truly have. At many airports, saying no to a face scan means a slower, more invasive manual process. Technically, there is consent, but it's hardly an equal choice. For frequent travelers, opting out repeatedly can feel like self-punishment. The issue extends beyond collection to retention and sharing. Some systems keep biometric records for several years. Others allow limited access to law-enforcement databases. And even if policies restrict use, enforcement depends on the weakest link in the data chain: a contractor, a misconfigured server, or a poorly secured archive. Incidents have shown w...

Though the Revolutionary War didn't officially end until September 1783 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris, a key turning point in the war for independence occurred six years earlier in a small corner of today's New York state. The Battle of Saratoga stretched out from September 19 until October 7, 1777, and marked the first time the British Empire had been forced to surrender. British General John Burgoyne had stretched his forces too thin in marching down from Canada with the intent of capturing Albany and wound up with huge losses in his army of nearly 7,000. His defeat at the hands of Major General Horatio Gates and General Benedict Arnold greatly raised American hopes to gain independence and convinced France to come to the colonials' aid. The story of how the British surrender came about is told at Saratoga National Historical Park near today's Stillwater, New York. To help us better understand the battles, we're joined today by Lauren Roberts, the historian at Saratoga County, New York, and Traveler Contributing Editor Kim O'Connell, who recently visited the historical park.

Story by Gail NoblesIntro by Gail NiblesCover Design by Gail NoblesThe Salem Travelers were a gospel group that recorded music for Checker Records, which was part of the famous Chess Records. Chess Records was known for its great music, especially in the 1960s and 1970s, including gospel tunes. The label was set up by the Chess brothers, Leonard and Phil, and they ran it until they sold it to General Record Tape (GRT) in 1969, just before Leonard passed away.During their time with Checker, the Salem Travelers released several singles and albums, including a popular song called "Thank You Lord," from 1968. The song expresses deep gratitude to God, with lyrics that reflect on how good the Lord has been. The lead singer shares his personal struggles, talking about moments when he felt confused and lost, as if Satan was trying to lead him astray. He captures the feeling of being undecided about which way to go in life, making the song relatable for many who face their own challenges.Overall, the music of the Salem Travelers is filled with heartfelt messages and spiritual strength, touching listeners with its honesty and uplifting spirit. I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to the Gospel Greats.About the great gospel singers.

When the life she'd planned took an unexpected turn, Kathleen Perry had to find her footing again. The quiet retirement she and her husband had imagined was gone when he passed away — so she reached back to something she'd set aside long ago: a dream to wander. She set her sights on three places — Prudhoe Bay, Ushuaia, and Nordkapp — three dots on the map. And to connect those dots, she would ride a motorcycle.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From June 2025. Today's 2 topics: - When we find a planet which appears to have the chemical signs of living organisms in its atmosphere, the desire to take a close up look at it will be hard to contain. In a Scientific American article, Lee Billings describes Yuri Milner's 100 million dollar project "Breakthrough Starshot" which has been created to leap frog our current rocket technology's extremely long travel times to nearby planets.    - The mystery of Tabby's star began to unfold when in 2015 Dr. Tabetha S. Boyajian of Louisiana State University and her team published a paper describing the irregular dips in the light output of what otherwise would seem to be a garden variety star over the period 2009 to 2013. Subsequently a list of proposed explanations include swarms of comets, large asteroids, a debris disk, and even a massive alien megastructure.   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!

Near the end of a month-long motorcycle ride through Spain, Mark and Lisa Schubert set out for what should've been an easy final day through the Pyrenees. But as they climbed higher, a mild forecast unravelled into chaos — winds strong enough to stop their motorcycle mid-corner, trees down, and power lines snapping. What follows isn't a story about recklessness or bravado, but about how easily ordinary choices and a little fixation can lead riders into real danger. It's about the thin line between pressing on and pulling back — and the single moment that changed everything.
