Starliner’s crewed return to Earth scrapped, Kanyini launches on board Transporter-11 and NEOWISE shuts down for the third, and final time.

Giant whirlpools in warming oceans could run counter to ocean stagnation that some have predicted could impact the Gulf Stream.

Scientists now estimate that half of all sun-like stars have Earth-like planets, now we hope they've had similar evolutionary paths and have complex life on them. Lunar's twin - astronomers now believe an asteroid hiding behind Mars and first found more than 20 years ago, is a long lost relative of our moon. And snagging a magnetar, a super dense neutron star, during a recent fast radio burst... how they did it may surprise you.

NASA preps Osiris-REx to land on an asteroid, super habitable exoplanets postulated and Dr Brad and his team discover the closest star to be gobbled up by a black hole. Those stories - plus the headlines - on this edition of Talkin' Science.

Astronauts on the space station are working hard to identify the source of a leak as astronomers here on Earth have found a supermassive black hole munching on six galaxies and Mars is at it's closest point to Earth for a decade and a half!

It's Tuesday September 29 2020. This is Talkin' Science. Detailed images emerge of M-87's heart, a supermassive black hole, Artemis is on track for a return to the moon according to NASA and analysing archive data pays off for researchers... finding three salt water lakes on Mars.

It's time for another edition of Talkin' Science with Dr Brad Tucker and Matt Miller.

The night time sky is turning on a treat for amateur astronomers with Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn all at opposition - find out exactly what that means, and how you can see it, with today's Talkin' Science Story of the Week..

Today Dr Brad Tucker and Matt chat about the Rosalind Franklin rover's launch delay.

We're Talkin' Science for another week. Today, an exoplanet that rains molten iron, a tear drop shaped star, the impacts of Coronavirus on Mt Stromlo and the ESA/Russian Mars rover is delayed...

If one of the suspected mini moons crashing to Earth, and a blood clot doesn't form in your body... you might just make it to Mars to find a dust tower waiting for you to ruin your summer vacation to the red planet!

Brad's got the details on a new star that's been ejected from the black hole at the center of our galaxy, SpaceX's Starlink project sending it's latest batch into orbit and some remarkable finds about Martian weather...

Space Law is essentially a treaty agreed upon back when the race to the moon was a hot button issue. Since then it’s sat on a shelf and largely been...

NASA scientists have been using ground-based observatories to learn more about the water that flowed all over ancient Mars. The new theory suggests much of the northern hemisphere was covered...
