    We talk about:
    • Passes of the International Space Station and satellites encouraging people to enjoy the night skies
    • How amateur astronomers can contribute to real science through their images of planets, meteor counting and Zooniverse projects
    • Removing the boundaries between professional and amateur astronomers
    • Finding supernovae (violently exploding stars)
    • The next generation of exciting telescopes – JWST & SKA – and what they will discover
    • Chris’ best guess on what the unexplained radio bursts are that we’re finding in the galaxy
     
    Dr. Chris Lintott is Professor of Astrophysics and Citizen Science Lead at the University of Oxford. An astronomer specialising in galaxy formation, machine learning, anomaly detection, and planet hunting as Head of the Zooniverse citizen science platform.

    What is the “cold spot” on the cosmic microwave background? Why shouldn’t it exist? What are some possible explanations for it, and why are they unsatisfying? I discuss these questions and more in today’s Ask a Spaceman!

    Astronomy Cast Ep. 82: Space Junk

    Astronomy Cast Ep. 82: Space Junk

    From March 31, 2008.
    We’re polluting every corner of our own planet, so it only makes sense that we’ll take our trashy habits out into space with us. This week we look at the myriad of ways we’re messing up space, from the trash orbiting the planet to the radiation we’re leaking out into space.

    Travelers in the Night Eps. 275E & 276E: Strange Comet & Screaming Aten

    Travelers in the Night Eps. 275E & 276E: Strange Comet & Screaming Aten

    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
    Today's 2 topics:
    - C/2016 Q4 (Kowalski) is my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Richard Kowalski's 14th comet discovery. It orbits the Sun once every 68 years on a cold path between Saturn and Neptune.
    - I knew from the short regularly space streaks on the four images I had just obtained with the Catalina Sky Survey's 60 inch on Mount Lemmon, Arizona, I was looking at the path of an Earth approaching object. Turns out, this previously unknown object, is an unusual Aten astrtoid in that its orbit is inclined 38 degrees to the path of the Earth around the Sun. It's high relative speed is caused by the fact that our paths intersect at a large angle making it similar to two vehicles coming together on intersecting highways.

    Last Minute Astronomer - June Episode

    Last Minute Astronomer - June Episode

    I’m Rob Webb, your Last Minute Astronomer, bringing astronomy to normies and nerds, with little time to spare.  This month, I’m recording on the go!  I’m traveling and recording on a different laptop than normal, with a microphone from 2012, and less than 6 hours of sleep each night this week. I’ll treat this as a…learning opportunity…
     
    As usual, we’ll start by talking about where the naked eye planets are this month, move on to the lunar phases, and finish up with a calendar of events, so you can plan ahead better than me. June brings us the quote “Parade of Planets”...well, sort of…Listen up as I discuss which planets are visible, which aren’t, and when the Moon will pass by them.
