We’re back for the mid-2025 season of Talkin’ Science, lets get the headlines across the past week…
An international team of astrophysicists from China and Australia, led by former Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Gravitational-wave Discovery researcher Professor Xingjiang Zhu who is now a Professor at Beijing Normal University has, for the first time, determined how massive neutron stars are when they are born.
A white dwarf and a red dwarf star have been discovered closely orbiting each other and emitting radio pulses every two hours. Their finding means we know it isn’t just neutron stars that emit such pulses, but these are spaced unusually far apart.
Dr Themiya Nanayakkara at Swinburne University has made a surprising space discovery – a giant spiral disk galaxy in the early cosmos which is three times larger than similar galaxies at the same epoch.
Ten weeks on from the return of the second Varda Space Industries mission, the first to South Australia’s Koonibba Test Range… the third mission has made landfall.
Following a ground support issue that delayed the Eris 1 launch window twenty four hours from Thursday, an electrical fault triggered the payload fairing to deploy just one hour before Friday’s effort. Now Gilmour Space are working the problem having put their launch window on hold for now.
