Get ready folks, you’re in for a treat on Saturday morning…
It’s another Tuesday, of another week, in another year here on Planet Earth… and that means Dr. Brad Tucker is standing by to bring us the week’s top science and space news.
The first two Short Treks have been released in the US, and now they’ve been reviewed by Australia’s first Star Trek fan site!
The Star franchises are near and dear to the hearts of us here at Trekzone, and while we haven’t done much on Star Wars, we have talked Stargate before and today we’re taking it one step further with the Showrunner, Executive Producer and Writer of SG-1, Atlantis and Universe (as well as Dark Matter) … Mr Joseph Mallozzi.
We’ve got another bumper Talkin’ Science for you this week as Dr Tucker brings his usual offering of science and space headlines.
Trekzone members have early access to this week’s podcast! Sign up today!!
And the second panel, the most anticipated some might say, of Star Trek’s Saturday afternoon show was for the new Star Trek series as we check back in with our beloved Captain.
We’ve finally got some Discovery season three. New York Comic Con was the place to be Saturday for your fill of Star Trek news!
Many folks doubted whether he’d make it to this point, some questioned whether he ever actually would, but Alec Peters has wrangled a cast and crew together for the first of three shoots for the Axanar short films permitted under his settlement with CBS and Paramount almost three years ago.
Lee Sargent’s back! We last caught up with him before Vegas or Bust, as we powered through the Berman-era Trek series. Today, we’re tackling Discovery – and Lee’s not afraid to speak his mind on this often polarising series… but, it’s all about engaging in the conversation and challenging one’s preconceptions of the show
New York Comic Con is the place to be this weekend for news on the next Star Trek series, set to premiere in early 2020. Picard, a more character driven
Axanar’s in trouble with Star Trek’s owners, and this time they may have finally come fully unstuck.
Brad’s here with details of Space X’s starship, a mysterious bubble at the center of the galaxy, the first UAE astronaut on the way to the space station and there’s a Loki on Jupiter’s moon Io causing some mischief…
Gary O’Brien and Nick Cook bring news from their Star Trek fan film ventures.
Brad’s here with details of the funding boost for the Aussie space industry, dead satellites almost colliding and the potential for an asteroid collision between Mars & Jupiter wreaking havoc on Earth millions of years ago!
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.
