Get ready to giggle and make bad jokes. Uranus is back in the news. In 1986, Voyager 2 flew by the distant ice giant and made a strange discovery—the planet's magnetic field was weird. It's not just weird; it's unlike every other planet in the solar system. For nearly 40 years, scientists have tried to understand why. To solve the mystery, researchers delved into the data collected by Voyager 2 and found a "cosmic coincidence". The solar wind was unusually strong just prior to the flyby, causing the strange observations. This is good news for Uranus's moons, which were thought to be inactive as a result of the Voyager 2 findings. Join planetary scientist Beth Johnson and space plasma physicist Jamie Jasinski from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory as they discuss the initial observations, how the data was reevaluated, and what this all means for future missions to Uranus. (Recorded 12 December 2024.)

What would you like to see more of? Let us know!In this episode of Discover Daily we explore a new revelation: scientists have discovered that NASA's historic 1986 Voyager 2 flyby of Uranus occurred during an extremely rare solar wind event, leading to decades of potentially misleading assumptions about the ice giant's magnetic environment. The spacecraft encountered Uranus during a powerful solar wind compression that occurs less than 4% of the time, capturing the planet in an unusual state that may have skewed our entire understanding of its magnetosphere.T he compressed state observed during the flyby likely pushed plasma out of the system while intensifying radiation belts, suggesting that Uranus's magnetic environment might be more similar to other gas giants than previously thought. This discovery challenges long-held beliefs about Uranus's "vacuum" magnetosphere and unexpectedly intense radiation belts, indicating these might be temporary features rather than permanent characteristics.This revelation has major implications for future space exploration, particularly in the search for subsurface oceans on Uranian moons. Scientists now believe that Uranus's largest moons, Titania and Oberon, spend most of their time within the planet's magnetic bubble, making future ocean detection missions more feasible than previously thought. The findings will significantly influence how we plan future missions to Uranus, emphasizing the need for extended observation periods rather than brief encounters.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/we-might-be-wrong-about-uranus-12krxS2oQOq.kkW8sici9QPerplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

It's a question that rivals the meaning of life itself: which is better, Star Trek or Star Wars? Of course, they are very different, and that's really the core of it--one is a sweeping fantasy adventure incorporating the "Hero's Journey," while the other is a science fantasy wrapped around a morality play. In the end, we love them both. But there is a bit of cultural (and perhaps generation) divide here, and someone has to put Tariq in his place. Join us for this civilization-shattering conversation! Headlines: NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft, now 12.8 billion miles from Earth, had to shut down its plasma science instrument due to power constraints. The instrument was the last of its kind still functioning on either Voyager spacecraft. United Launch Alliance (ULA) successfully launched its second Vulcan Centaur rocket, despite an apparent nozzle failure on one of the solid rocket boosters. The rocket carried a mass simulator in place of the delayed Dream Chaser spaceplane. The Sun unleashed an X9.05 solar flare, the strongest directed at Earth since 2017. The resulting coronal mass ejection (CME) could potentially trigger intense auroras visible at lower latitudes this weekend. Main Topic - Star Trek vs. Star Wars: Rod and Tariq share their personal experiences with both franchises, discussing their first encounters with Star Trek and Star Wars and how the franchises have evolved. They compare the intellectual aspects of both universes, with Star Trek often focusing on morality plays and Star Wars being more of a fun, fantasy-driven space opera. The hosts discuss the acting in both franchises, highlighting standout performances and the impact of certain characters and actors. They examine the iconic spaceships from each universe, noting that Star Trek ships like the Enterprise are more recognizable and have had a more significant cultural impact compared to Star Wars ships, with the exception of the Millennium Falcon. Rod and Tariq argue that Star Wars has had a more significant impact on popular culture, while Star Trek has been more influential in inspiring real-life space exploration and scientific careers. They conclude that both franchises have their merits and have played essential roles in getting people excited about space and science fiction.

NASA desactiva el sensor de plasma de Voyager 2 para prolongar su misión en el espacio profundo.  NASA ha decidido apagar el detector de plasma de la Voyager 2, lanzada en 1977, con el fin de conservar energía y extender la vida útil de la sonda, que se encuentra a más de 20.5 mil millones de kilómetros de la Tierra.No olvides seguirnos en Spotify para más noticias y análisis.El instrumento, que ayudó a estudiar el plasma y los campos magnéticos en el espacio interestelar, dejará de funcionar para priorizar otros cuatro dispositivos científicos. La misión de la Voyager 2 continuará al menos hasta la década de 2030, con datos que seguirán siendo valiosos para entender los límites del sistema solar y el espacio interestelar.Apagar el detector de plasma es solo el primero de varios ajustes para prolongar la misión.    El detector de plasma en la Voyager 2 permitió descubrimientos clave sobre los planetas y el espacio profundo. Por ejemplo, detectó el Io torus en Júpiter, un anillo de plasma generado por la actividad volcánica en su luna Io. Además, ayudó a detectar el choque de terminación, donde el viento solar deja de ser supersónico. Con el paso de los años, la energía de la sonda ha disminuido, lo que ha obligado a NASA a desactivar este instrumento, ya que solo recopilaba datos cada tres meses. La Voyager 2 continuará enviando información sobre rayos cósmicos y campos magnéticos.El principal reto de la Voyager 2 es la falta de energía. Alimentada por generadores termoeléctricos, la energía disponible ha disminuido constantemente debido a la desintegración del plutonio. Esta pérdida obliga a NASA a priorizar qué instrumentos seguirán activos para maximizar el tiempo de vida de la sonda. El equipo decidió apagar el detector de plasma, pero la misión sigue adelante, con otros dispositivos aún recolectando información valiosa sobre el espacio interestelar.  Aunque la Voyager 2 ya no utilizará el detector de plasma, seguirá midiendo rayos cósmicos y campos magnéticos hasta al menos el 2030. La misión, que originalmente debía durar solo cuatro años, ha superado todas las expectativas y sigue brindando datos vitales del espacio profundo. La NASA confía en que la decisión permitirá prolongar el funcionamiento de la sonda, que continúa su viaje fuera del sistema solar.  Este apagado no es el fin para la Voyager 2. La sonda continuará su misión y enviará información crucial sobre el entorno más allá del sistema solar. Este ajuste es parte de una estrategia para maximizar el uso de la energía que le queda, lo que permitirá seguir obteniendo datos valiosos en los próximos años.   El detector de plasma de la Voyager 2 se ha apagado para conservar energía y prolongar la misión. Aún así, la sonda seguirá recolectando datos desde los confines del espacio interestelar.

I'm Anna, your host, and today we have a packed episode covering exciting developments from NASA's Voyager mission to solar flares and lunar rovers. Let's dive into some fascinating stories from across the cosmos.Highlights:- Voyager 2's Ongoing Journey: NASA has made the tough decision to power down the plasma science instrument aboard Voyager 2, now over 12.8 billion miles from Earth, due to diminishing power supply. Despite this, Voyager 2 continues its groundbreaking exploration with four other active instruments, extending its mission well into the 2030s.- Solar Flares and Geomagnetic Storms: The sun unleashed two powerful flares, including an X 7.1 class flare, the second strongest of the current solar cycle. This eruption caused disruptions to radio communications and is expected to trigger a geomagnetic storm, offering a spectacle for Aurora watchers.- Annular Solar Eclipse: Sky watchers in select locations witnessed a stunning annular solar eclipse, transforming the sun into a "ring of fire." This rare celestial event was visible across parts of the Pacific Ocean, including Hawaii, southern Chile, and Argentina.- NASA's Lunar All Terrain Vehicle: As part of the Artemis missions, NASA is developing the Lunar Terrain Vehicle (LTV), an unpressurized rover for future lunar exploration. A prototype, the Ground Test Unit (GTU), is being tested at Johnson Space Center to refine the design and ensure safe lunar operations.- Vulcan Centaur Rocket's Second Flight: United Launch Alliance's Vulcan Centaur rocket is set for its second test flight, a crucial step towards certifying it for the US Space Force. This mission, carrying a mass simulator, aims to assess the rocket's performance for future national security missions.- ESA's New Norcia Antenna: The European Space Agency has installed a massive 122-ton reflector dish for its newest deep space communication antenna in New Norcia, Australia. This will enhance ESA's ability to communicate with distant spacecraft and support international missions.For more space news, visit our website at astronomydaily.io.

The Voyager probes have been transiting space since 1977, and they're still at it 46 years later. But late in 2023, Voyager 1, now 15 billion miles distant, started sending what the flight controllers called "gibberish" back to Earth---uncoordinated ones and zeros and a heartbeat tone. They knew it was still alive, but something had gone wrong. The small team of software wizards at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory got to work and came up with a workaround... but due to the age of the program, did not have an old enough computer on the ground to test it! They'd have to eyeball the sequence and send it to overwrite existing programming on the spacecraft. The round-trip radio signal from Earth takes 45 hours... and it was a nail-biter.

The Voyager probes have been transiting space since 1977, and they're still at it 46 years later. But late in 2023, Voyager 1, now 15 billion miles distant, started sending what the flight controllers called "gibberish" back to Earth---uncoordinated ones and zeros and a heartbeat tone. They knew it was still alive, but something had gone wrong. The small team of software wizards at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory got to work and came up with a workaround... but due to the age of the program, did not have an old enough computer on the ground to test it! They'd have to eyeball the sequence and send it to overwrite existing programming on the spacecraft. The round-trip radio signal from Earth takes 45 hours... and it was a nail-biter.

This episode contains: Everyone is here and accounted for, but earlier than usual. We talk about why. Steven played some Fallout Wasteland Warfare and watched the entire Amazon Prime Fallout series, because of course he did. Devon has been watching as well, Ben is still in progress. If you liked the show, you should play Fallout 4 (or maybe Fallout 76). Steven and Ben are watching X-Men '97 and if you're not, you're really missing out (Devon, looking at you). It's a mutant soap opera and we're here for it. Steven comments that it's not a Wolverine show, and that makes it different and makes it feel more X-Men-y. We chat about the Life/Death storyline in the show and in the comics. Ben is super excited to talk about Star Trek Discovery and it's latest time-loop episode.    Sweet Dreams Til Sunbeams Find You: 50 Years Later, This Apollo-Era Antenna Still Talks to Voyager 2. Deep Space Station 43 (DSS-43), an antenna located at the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex, has been instrumental in space exploration for over 50 years. It is responsible for over 40% of all data retrieved by celestial explorers and is the only antenna capable of communicating with Voyager 2. DSS-43 was honored with an IEEE Milestone in March during a ceremony held at the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex.  https://spectrum.ieee.org/apollo-era-antenna-voyager-2    This Week In Space: Astrophysicist explains science behind once-in-a-lifetime nova outburst that will light up the sky this year. The nova will create a "new" star in the night sky, and will light up sometime between now and September. It will be as bright as the North Star. We also talk about what a Type 1a supernova is.  https://phys.org/news/2024-03-astrophysicist-science-lifetime-nova-outburst.html  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_Ia_supernova    Book Club: The Long Game (The Far Reaches Collection) by Ann Leckie.  https://www.amazon.com/Long-Game-Far-Reaches-collection-ebook/dp/B0C4QPCYZ4  Steven and Ben both read the short story, while Devon completely forgot. Boo Devon. Both Ben and Steven enjoyed the story, but had a few little nitpicks. We also talk about where this segment is going in the future.  Next week: Void (The Far Reaches Collection) by Veronia Roth.

WinRAR v6.23 fixes: Steve explains that updating to the latest WinRAR is more important than initially thought, with two critical vulnerabilities being actively exploited by hackers since April to install malware. HTTPS for local networks: Responding to listener email, Steve agrees HTTP is fine for local network devices like routers but notes risks in larger corporate networks. Portable domains for email: Steve endorses a listener suggestion to purchase your own domain and use third-party services, retaining control if a provider shuts down. Google Topics and monopolies: Steve and Leo debate whether Topics favors large advertisers with greater reach to get user targeting data. Voyager 2 antenna analysis: A listener calculates the antenna beam width mathematically, showing 2 degrees off-axis may not be as remarkable as it sounded. Windows time settings: Steve clarifies the STS issue does not impact end users changing Windows clock settings, it's enterprise server-side. Unix time in TLS handshakes: The hosts discuss why Unix time stamps are sent but not required for TLS, tracing back to early nonce generation. Fake flash drives: Steve warns of a slew of fake high-capacity thumb drives flooding the market, explaining how SpinRite tests detected the flaw.
