Description

Paul Hill, Ralph Wilkins and Jenifer Millard host. Damien Phillips and John Wildridge produce. The Discussion: Pint of Science targets canines, Ralph makes a schoolboy error while in Florida and we all eagerly await the publication of a research paper by Jen. The News: Rounding up the astronomy news this month we have: - More disturbing news about the climate on Earth-analogue, Venus. - TESS discovers a planetary system around a visual binary star in Fornax. - The Andromeda & Triangulum galaxies are hiding quasars. - New research shows the mechanism by how Pluto could harbour oceans. - A better understanding of past ice ages on Mars. - More ridiculous ways to not find dark matter. - The race to analyse meteorites at Arizona State University. Main news story: Mr Musk’s Splendiferous Starlink. The Sky Guide: Covering the solar system and deep sky objects on offer to amateur astronomers in June: - Jen: Mars and Mercury as the stand-out objects in the lighter summer skies of June and a good opportunity to look out for noctilucent clouds at dawn and dusk. - Ralph: A round up of the other bright planets on offer in June and a certain satellite constellation now observable... Main Object: the Eagle Nebula in the constellation Serpens. http://www.awesomeastronomy.com Bio: Awesome Astronomy is a podcast beamed direct from an underground bunker on Mars to promote science, space and astronomy (and enslave Earth if all goes well).   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.

The 365 Days of Astronomy Podcast is a project that is publishing one podcast per day, 5 to 10 minutes in duration, for all 365 days of the year. The podcast episodes are written, recorded and produced by people around the world. We are looking for individuals, schools, companies and clubs to provide 5 - 10 minutes of audio for the daily podcast. You can do as few as 1 episode or up to 12 episodes (one per month, subject to our editorial discretion). Our goal is to encourage people to sign up for a particular day (or days) of the year.
