Supanova Week starts now… While the Strange New Worlds production office handles a Covid case in the guest cast, we’re hearing rumours again of a new Star Trek movie. Plus
We’re flashing back to That Time When We Met David Mack, acclaimed author whose has written in the 24, Farscape and Star Trek universes.
It’s a comet that has the astronomical community. Is it from beyond our solar system? Is it made up of pebbles or something finer? Join Matt as he chats with
As a seven year project to build a space debris hunting laser at Mount Stromlo comes to fruition, we celebrate 60 years since Yuri Gagarin and 40 years since the
We’re flashing back to That Time When we met author Dayton Ward, as we kick off a fortnight of looking at the literature of Star Trek. Catch this interview in
So much awesomeness was packed into Monday’s First Contact Day panels, so we’re taking six minutes to give you what you need to know, including our easter egg breakdown of
We’re thrilled to welcome expedition 64’s flight engineer to Talkin’ Science. Colonel Mark Vande Hei beams in from the Baikonur Cosmodrome to chat to Matt about the mission ahead of
Bill and Dan, The Trek Geeks, are back on Trekzone to help us wrap up all the juicy tidbits we learnt from Paramount+’s First Contact Day panels…
On this Talkin’ Science – Australia will have it’s own space command next year, joining other world powers in orbit. Astronomers have gotten a pretty good view of 2I/Borisov, as
The final panel of First Contact Day introduced us to how Captain Janeway will fit into the motely crew that we were introduced to a few months ago.
We got our first taste of the second season of the second animated series joining the Star Trek stable.
A fan favourite returns to the franchise, with promises of great things to come from the delayed second season of Star Trek Picard.

Dr Graham Walker loves his job and he loves teaching others about science too. It’s all part of his outreach program that’s taken him to Africa, Asia and even right
An accomplished international photographer, Charles Brooks, has captured dazzling new images of one component of the main ring at the Australian Synchrotron and provided an inside view of the electron’s path when it is used. A synchrotron engineer converted radio waves produced in the vacuum chamber into sound files.
The Varda Space Industries W-2 capsule safely returned to Earth at Southern Launch’s Koonibba Test Range completing a dual-purpose mission with payloads from the United States Air Force and NASA at the end of February.
New analysis of marsquakes, which are similar to earthquakes, could offer clues into how Mars has evolved over billions of years, according to new research from The Australian National University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Distant neutron stars typically spin a full 360 degrees within seconds. However, a new type of ‘radio transient object’ – so called as they are detected in radio waves – has emerged that rotate much more slowly. In the time it takes this cosmic lighthouse to rotate you could watch Interstellar twice before it completes a full spin.
An international study led by Australian astronomers has created the most detailed maps of gravitational waves across the universe to date in three new research papers. The study also produced the largest ever galactic-scale gravitational wave detector and found further evidence of a “background” of these invisible yet incredibly fast ripples in space that can help unlock some major mysteries of the universe.
Even though Saturn’s rings appear clean and young, they may be as old as the planet itself according to international researchers. It was previously thought that impacts with small rocky debris travelling through space – called micrometeoroids – would dirty and darken the rings over time, but in 2004 the Cassini spacecraft revealed the rings to be clean and bright suggesting that they are not very old.
