Astronomy Daily - The Podcast: 12th September 2024
Welcome to Astronomy Daily, your go-to Podcast for the latest and greatest in space and Astronomy. I'm your host, Anna, and today we have some thrilling stories lined up for you. Sit tight as we dive into groundbreaking missions, celestial discoveries, and much more. Buckle up, stargazers. It's going to be an exciting ride through the cosmos.
Highlights:
- SpaceX's First Private Spacewalk: SpaceX is about to make history with the first private spacewalk during the Polaris Dawn mission. The crew, consisting of Jared Isaacman, Scott Petit, Sara Gillis, and Anna Menon, will step outside the safety of their spacecraft to perform an extravehicular activity (EVA). This mission represents a groundbreaking achievement in commercial spaceflight and will be a critical test for new SpaceX-developed spacesuits.
- Russia's Flawless Soyuz Rocket Launch: NASA and Roscosmos have successfully launched three astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) aboard the reliable Soyuz rocket. This mission marks a historic moment with a record 19 astronauts currently orbiting Earth, spread across four different spacecraft.
- New Mega Satellite Constellation Proposal: Researchers have proposed an innovative design for a mega satellite constellation that promises rapid global observation capabilities. This ambitious project involves deploying 891 satellites strategically positioned in low Earth orbit to ensure rapid and comprehensive global coverage.
- NASA's Juno Mission Discovery: NASA's Juno mission has discovered a brand new volcano on Jupiter's moon Io. This newly observed volcano features multiple lava flows and volcanic deposits, adding even more intrigue to our geologically active neighbor.
- Challenge to the Big Bang Theory: A provocative new study by Kansas State University engineer Lior Shamir challenges the foundation of the Big Bang theory. Shamir's findings lend support to the tired light theory, suggesting that light may lose energy over vast distances, rather than galaxies moving rapidly away from us.
