In 60 seconds hear from Dr. Brad Tucker in this 2016 interview about the devastating 2003 bushfires that devastated much of the work at Mt Stromlo. How has the observatory recovered?
Australia’s east coast is suffering from catastrophic fire conditions – worse than the 2018 Californian wildfires as Mercury transits the Sun, a Red Giant mystery baffles astronomers and Voyager 2 continues to travel away.
Today, an awesomely talented actress most noted for her work as Karen Page on the Marvel series of shows on Netflix, sits down for a one on one with Keeley… it’s Deborah Ann Wol!
Lets discuss those awesome science fiction planets, that it turns out are actually quite real!
Dr. Geoff Campbell and his team are researching quantum computing and the ability to send information in a quantum state – to get even faster communications!
Nuclear Physicist Anton Wallner and his team are looking for supernova remnants on Earth, because it could hold the key to understanding heavy elements.
Thanks to some eager astronauts and a bit of Aussie ingenuity, the world got to see the first footprints on the moon.
A trio of interesting headlines for this week’s show, so don’t wait – dive in now!
This week on A Trekzone Conversation, it’s a thrill to welcome two Vice Presidents from rocket company Northrop Grumman to chat about their milestone this weekend and what the future holds.
For almost two decades, Star Trek fan films have been entertaining a niche market of Trekkies around the world. However in the past five years a perceived arms race between the biggest of the players built into an inevitable end game that saw the landscape irrevocably changed.
Don’t wait, jump in now for a jam packed edition of Talkin’ Science!
PhD candidate Eloise Birchall is studying protoplanetary discs and planet formation at the Australian National University.
It’s all about spacewalks and Earth-orbiting satellites on today’s Talkin’ Science.
The Orville’s Tom Costantino is today’s guest… proving we’re more than just Star Trek at A Trekzone Conversation.
Australia’s broadcaster of the Seth MacFarlane created show has confirmed to Trekzone that it will be broadcasting the third season of The Orville in the second half of 2020.
Because it’s kinda like Star Trek, and there’s a tonne of Trek vets on the show – The Orville is coming to Trekzone!
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.
