Direct from Waikiki and a day early, I’m checking in with Brad to catch the latest space and science news.
Larry Nemecek’s with me today to recap all of the exciting news from San Diego Comic Con last weekend, and to preview the Las Vegas convention which is now less than a week away.
It’s been a crazy adventure getting to three days to go and it’s not over yet – by the time our crew is sipping jippers on a beach somewhere on
We’ve got a special Talkin’ Science episode for you today, as the world celebrates 50 years since Neil Armstrong set foot on the lunar surface.
Aaron Vanderkley’s Star Trek fan film swansong, Line of Duty, premieres exclusively on Trekzone in a very special live stream direct from Waikiki.
Lee and I round out our run through July with the eighth installment in the Talkin’ Trek series… this is all about Enterprise, if you have faith… faith of the heart!
Brad and I discuss Japan’s magnificent effort to successfully land on an asteroid – again… India’s delayed effort to put a rover on the moon plus the partial lunar eclipse and we preview our upcoming special episode talking with Glen Nagle from the Canberra Deep Space Communication Complex about Apollo 11.
Episode #173 Things get a little loose in this special extended edition of A Trekzone Conversation. Lee and I begin by discussing the third live action spin off and end
16 years ago, I started a website for a year 10 IT project. 6 years ago, I started podcasting.
Brad’s Talkin’ Science in the twenty eighth week of 2019!
The series that started out as a monthly endeavour to dive into our beloved franchise, has turned into a year-long mission to talk Trek with good friend of Trekzone, Lee
With just four weeks to go until the biggest event on the Star Trek fan calendar, and with Trekzone’s first visit to the US coming up in just 20 days…
Episode #166 Brad’s here with the space and science headlines of the week – including NASA’s #Dragonfly mission to Saturn’s Titan, the European Space Agency’s comet chasing mission and Western
We’re just twenty four days from the beginning of Trekzone’s Vegas or Bust tour – which means it’s an incredibly busy time at Australia’s unofficial home of Star Trek. To
Liz Landau is one of those folks who has a cool job… she’s a story teller at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab, today she’s chatting to Brad and I about her work!
Brad’s talkin’ science today, just like every Tuesday. We dive into some of Cassini’s final images, NASA’s launching of an atomic clock into orbit and a meteorite sighting over the Queensland town of Ipswich.
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.
Australia’s first sovereign orbital rocket designed and built has finally cleared all regulatory hurdles, and
