As the Parkes Radio Telescope joins the national heritage list, SpaceX’s Starship successfully flies and supernova ‘1987A’ gives away a fascinating secret.
SpaceX has backed up their Crew Dragon success with the first flight of Starship… it flew, and landed, at their testing range in Texas.
Astronomers use a total lunar eclipse to study the ozone, and find exoplanets. The 1987 supernova may have brought the universe a neutron star and Starship finally soars, and lands, in another successful test flight for SpaceX.
The FCC in the US has greenlit Amazon’s ambitious plans to compete with Starlink for global satellite internet dominance. The Jeff Bezos led company has a leg up on Elon Musk’s project though, given Amazon Web Services serve much of the internet backbone already, and there are ground based stations worldwide.
Astronomers long thought the earliest stars had all died out, and the universe was on it’s third generation of pinpoints of light in the night sky. However, the Phoenix cluster has thrown those theories out the window… as it’s jam packed with “first generation” stars.
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has made a remarkable discovery while studying the baby star “AU Mic” – it has an exoplanet about the same distance as Neptune is from our star.
At the beginning of the solar system Pluto may have been bombarded by rocky material in much the same way as the inner planets. That means, according to researchers, there may be an ocean locked away under the surface…
Nick Cook is helping us continue an impromptu dive into our oft-recurring sub-series of our podcast.. Fan Films Done Right.
SpaceX’s Starlink has put the call out for members of the public to test their network but the catch is only folks in the far northern hemisphere have access, but the speeds potentially on offer are astronomical..
New research indicates that there may be up to 36 intelligent civilisations in the Milky Way right now, as Starlink opens its doors for initial trials and some Aussies were part of a world record attempt to measure light pollution.
Last weekend was a monumental one for NASA’s crewed spaceflight program, meanwhile Australian astronomers have paved the way for new understandings…
While the crucial next step in commercial spaceflight for the American space agency was waiting for launch, SpaceX’s Starship prototype exploded at their Boca Chica proving grounds.
What a monumental weekend of crewed spaceflight we’ve just experienced, as America continues to show us the dichotomy it is.
The Very Large Telescope has spotted a dancing star which has proven Einstein right again… Dr Brad Tucker has the details on this Talkin’ Science Story of the Week..
As part of our ongoing mini series of podcasts reviewing Star Trek, Lee Sargent is back with Matt for another installment of Talkin’ Trek. On this show the pair dive into Picard’s first season…
Today, Dr Brad Tucker and Matt discuss a newly discovered star found by astronomers who were pouring over some TESS satellite data…
Curtin University-led research has discovered a rare dust particle trapped in an ancient extra-terrestrial meteorite that was formed by a star other than our sun
the super-fast speeds of a neutron star’s powerful jets have been recorded by CSIRO’s Australia Telescope Compact Array and the European Space Agency’s Integral observatory
At least one in a dozen stars show evidence of planetary ingestion according to a paper published in Nature.
An international research team have made incredibly detailed observations of the earliest merger of galaxies ever witnessed.
NASA has chosen the first science instruments designed for astronauts to deploy on the surface of the Moon during Artemis III.
South Australian satellite, Kanyini, has achieved another key milestone with the successful completion of its Environmental Stress Screening ahead of the satellite’s mid-2024 launch.
