  • S03E165: Rocky Exoplanet Discovery, ISS Crew Rotations, and Hubble's Jet Surprise

    S03E165: Rocky Exoplanet Discovery, ISS Crew Rotations, and Hubble's Jet Surprise
    Sep 27 2024
    Astronomy Daily - The Podcast: S03E165
    Welcome to Astronomy Daily, your source for the latest space and Astronomy news. I'm your host, Anna, and in today's episode, we'll be covering several exciting stories from across the cosmos.
    Highlights:
    - First Rocky Planet Orbiting a White Dwarf: Astronomers have discovered the first rocky planet orbiting a white dwarf star, located about 4200 light years away. This frozen world, nearly twice the mass of Earth, survived the death and expansion of its host star, raising intriguing questions about Earth's future as our sun ages.
    - ISS Crew Changes: Two Russian cosmonauts, Oleg Konenenko and Nigel Chubb, returned to Earth after a record-breaking 374 Daily in space, providing valuable data on long-duration spaceflight effects. NASA is gearing up for more crew rotations, with the SpaceX Crew-9 mission set to launch soon.
    - Potential Resumption of Spacewalks: NASA is working to resolve technical issues with spacesuits, aiming to resume spacewalks from the US segment of the ISS. These extravehicular activities are crucial for maintenance and upgrades.
    - SpaceX Crew-9 Mission: Scheduled to launch on Saturday, September 28, at 1:17 PM Eastern from Cape Canaveral, this mission will carry NASA astronaut Nick Haig and Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Gorbunov to the ISS.

    - Hubble's Unexpected Discovery: The Hubble Space Telescope revealed that a supermassive black hole's jet is causing nearby stars to erupt more frequently. This finding challenges our understanding of black hole jets and their interactions with surrounding stars.
    - First Discovery from the NEID Earth Twin Survey: Astronomers announced the discovery of HD 86728 b, a planet nine times the mass of Earth, orbiting a star 49 light years away. This showcases the precision of new instruments and brings us closer to finding Earth-like planets.
    - Dark Matter Interactions: A new study suggests that dark matter may interact with regular matter in ways beyond gravity. Observations of ultra-faint dwarf galaxies hint at a more complex relationship, potentially opening new avenues for detecting dark matter.

  • S03E164: Artemis Radiation Study, Heart Cells in Space, and SETI's Galactic Hunt

    S03E164: Artemis Radiation Study, Heart Cells in Space, and SETI's Galactic Hunt
    Sep 26 2024
    Astronomy Daily - The Podcast: S03E164
    Welcome to Astronomy Daily, your source for the latest space and Astronomy news. I'm your host, Anna, and today we have an exciting lineup of stories that span from Earth's orbit to distant galaxies. Buckle up and get ready for a thrilling journey through the cosmos.
    Highlights:
    - Spaceflight Radiation Exposure: During NASA's Artemis I mission, scientists gathered crucial data on radiation exposure using mannequins and advanced sensors. Findings show that enhanced radiation shielding areas provided up to four times more protection, validating spacecraft design for future missions.
    - Low Gravity Effects on Heart Cells: Researchers sent human bioengineered heart tissue samples to the ISS. The results revealed significant weakening and disruptions in normal rhythmic beating patterns, highlighting potential health risks for astronauts on extended missions.
    - SETI's Search for Alien Technology: In an unprecedented study, scientists used the Murchison Widefield Array to observe 2800 galaxies, searching for technosignatures. While no definitive evidence was found, this research opens new possibilities for future SETI efforts.
    - Milky Way's Unique Characteristics: The SAGA survey studied 101 satellite systems similar to our Milky Way, revealing that the number of satellite galaxies varies widely. Our galaxy's relatively low satellite count, despite having the Large Magellanic Cloud, hints at a unique history.
    - Mars's Missing Atmosphere: New research suggests Mars's atmosphere may have been absorbed by minerals in Martian clays over billions of years. This theory offers a potential explanation for Mars's transformation and raises the possibility of utilizing trapped methane for future missions.

  • S03E163: SpaceX's Mars Ambitions, Galactic Magnetic Halo, and ESA's DRACO Mission

    S03E163: SpaceX's Mars Ambitions, Galactic Magnetic Halo, and ESA's DRACO Mission
    Sep 25 2024
    Astronomy Daily - The Podcast: S03E163
    Welcome to Astronomy Daily, your source for the latest space and Astronomy news. I'm your host, Anna, and today we'll be covering a range of exciting topics, from SpaceX's ambitious Mars plans to new discoveries about our galaxy's magnetic halo. Strap in for a cosmic journey as we explore the frontiers of space exploration and scientific discovery.
    Highlights:
    - SpaceX's Mars Missions: Elon Musk has announced that SpaceX aims to launch approximately five uncrewed starship missions to Mars within the next two years. These missions align with the upcoming Earth-Mars transfer window and will be crucial in determining the timeline for future crewed expeditions. If successful, the first crewed missions could launch in as little as four years.
    - FAA Fine Against SpaceX: The Federal Aviation Administration has proposed a $633,000 fine against SpaceX for violating agency rules. This has sparked a debate about safety practices in the private space industry. FAA administrator Mike Whitaker emphasized the need for rigorous safety management systems, while SpaceX disputes the claims, asserting their commitment to safety.
    - Milky Way's Magnetic Halo: Scientists have discovered a magnetic halo surrounding our Milky Way galaxy, stretching 16,000 light years beyond the galactic plane. This finding, led by the National Institute for Astrophysics, reveals magnetized structures connected to the Eroceta bubbles and provides new insights into galactic growth processes.
    - SpaceX Crew-9 Mission Delay: The Crew-9 mission to the International Space Station has been delayed due to Tropical Storm Helene. Originally planned for Thursday, the launch is now tentatively set for Stuart at 1:17 PM Eastern. Preparations continue, with safety remaining the top priority.
    - ESA's Draco Mission: The European Space Agency is preparing for the Draco mission, aimed at understanding the final moments of a satellite's life during reentry. This mission will collect crucial data on temperature, pressure, and strain, enhancing future satellite designs and space debris mitigation strategies.
    - WASP-107b Atmospheric Discovery: Using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have observed an east-west asymmetry in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WASP-107b. This discovery is crucial for understanding the climate and atmospheric dynamics of worlds beyond our solar system.
