Astronomers have discovered the closest black hole to Earth at just 1, 000 light years away. We’re told not to worry though, given that it’s just a small one – a stellar mass black hole.
Another week in our Coronavirus lockdown life rolls around, and Dr Brad Tucker is here with details of the closest black hole to Earth being discovered by astronomers, Tom Cruise and SpaceX signing up to film a movie on the Space Station and China’s shakedown cruise of it’s new long March 5B rocket.
We’re live across social media this morning for this week’s uncut edition of Talkin’ Science.

As the US continues to present a destablised front to the world, Russia maintains it’s decision to build up it’s space defenses with an anti-satellite weapons test last week.
It’s a special week for NASA, not only is Hubble fast approaching it’s thirtieth anniversary but they’ve set a date to launch astronauts from US soil for the first time in almost nine years. Plus, Dr Brad Tucker has details of a dancing star proving Einstein right (again) and a Russian anti-satellite weapon test.
It’s the end of the third week of March 2025. Here’s the science and space
Astronauts often experience immune dysfunction, skin rashes, and other inflammatory conditions while travelling in space, and international researchers believe these issues are likely due to the overly sterile nature of the International Space Station.
Australia’s first state government funded satellite, Kanyini, has delivered its first images from space, marking
Data from NASA’s InSight mission suggest Mars has a liquid core similar to Earth’s, but European scientists say the core may be solid, at least below a certain temperature.
Scientists have successfully used lasers to identify microbe fossils in rocks from Earth, which are like the rocks found on Mars, opening up the possibility of searching for fossils on the Red Planet.
International scientists, including an Australian, say they’ve found evidence of the highest-energy neutrino detected to date. The result suggests the particle came from beyond our Milky Way, they say, although its precise origin remains mysterious.
