... Potentially the silliest bonus episode we've ever recorded.  The Supermassive Team takes on your questions; What are Brown Dwarfs? How can photons have different energies? Do frozen stars exist? And they get extremely distracted by the concept of nuclear pasta. Even Producer Richard gets involved.  Here's the paper mentioned by listener Hanna, Thermodynamics of Frozen Stars The Supermassive Podcast is a Boffin Media production. The producers are Izzie Clarke and Richard Hollingham. 

Iceland is preparing to receive solar power from a satellite that is beamed down to Earth. Uranus' moon Miranda may have an ocean beneath its surface.

November’s night skies feature a cluster of prominent constellations led by a celestial queen. Our guided audio tour tells you how to identify them, along with tips for spotting all five bright planets and three meteor showers. The post November Podcast: Cassiopeia & Company appeared first on Sky & Telescope.

When Yuri Gagarin blasted into orbit in 1961 to become the first human in space, he was already 14 years behind the first animals from Earth. The fruit flies that were flew to space in 1947 were just the first of many different animals in the decade and a half before Gagarin’s orbital flight that were used to test equipment and living things’ capacity to survive and work in weightlessness. There were primates, dogs, mice and rabbits that crewed orbital and suborbital test flights. And the animal parade didn’t end when humans launched themselves to space, frogs, fish, spiders, chimpanzees, a cat and of course guinea pigs all played a role in advancing the space program. One very famous space animal has her own statue. Follow Cosmic Coffee Time on X for some special content      X.com/CosmicCoffTimeYou can request a topic for the show!

Sonification is when scientific data is "visualized" or communicated through non-verbal sound. In this episode we discuss the affordances (and some cautions) of sonification in science and science communication as well as in musical compositions. The practice of sonification, especially of astronomical data, brings together aesthetic and objective representations of the universe in a way that can be seen as hearkening back to the tradition of the Quadrivium.    References Alvin Lucier, "Sferics" Chandra sonifications LIGO chirps * Gerard Grisey, "Le Noir de L'Etoile"     * "This research has made use of data or software obtained from the Gravitational Wave Open Science Center (gwosc.org), a service of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration, the Virgo Collaboration, and KAGRA.

We've hit a crossroad. We came back to celebrate KSP2, but it's not quite there yet. Maybe we jumped on the bandwagon too quickly. Maybe we're too long in the tooth to report on another development of a game. Or maybe we need to focus a little less on just KSP. We discuss our feelings about the show as it stands currently and ask for some feedback on where we go from here.   0:07:58 - Critics critiquing... again 0:27:40 - Unannounced hiatus 0:35:53 - The Proposal 0:47:27 - Mator and the outros   Music was created by Popskyy - www.popskyy.bandcamp.com Host Links: www.twitch.tv/matoro www.twitch.tv/thereadpanda www.davidd.photography/ BST Social Links: Twitter (https://twitter.com/bspacetape) Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/bspacetape) Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/boostersandspacetape) Contact: boostersandspacetape@gmail.com

REVISED 9/29/2023 (Audio issue fixed!) Basically, we wanted to discuss meteoroids, meteors, and meteorites. We are not going to deep in this segment, hence the "Part I", because we wanted to save time to discuss meteor shower viewing tips as well. Plus we wanted to discuss some of the planetary shifting going on this summer and how it shapes up for fall!
