• Travelers in the Night Eps. 889 & 890: Lick Observatory & Comet 467P (Linear-Grauer) 14.06.2026 6分

  Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From March 2026. Today's 2 topics: - In 1892 the world's largest telescope, the Lick Observatory's 36 inch refracting telescope made the news when E.E. Barnard discovered, Amalthea, the 5th moon of Jupiter. In 2025 this historic telescope made the news again when on Christmas morning winds of 114 mph blew off a 3 ton piece of the shutter on its dome. The adaptive optics research pioneered at Lick Observatory helped in the creation of the twin giant 10 meter telescopes that sit atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii.   - Astronomers using the 8.1 m Gemini South Telescope in Chile were excited by the fact that 467P (LINEAR-Grauer)'s Centaur like orbit had been changed as the nucleus emitted rocket like bursts of gases as it was warmed by the Sun. Inert inactive asteroids orbit the Sun following the law of gravity whereas active asteroids can emit little rocket like bursts of gas which can change their path about the Sun in interesting ways. It is important to study objects like 467P (LINEAR-Grauer) to make sure their path about the Sun doesn't change to make them a threat to our home planet.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

• NOIRLab - Strong Hints of Magnetic Fields On Exoplanets 13.06.2026 10分

  Using the Gemini North telescope in Hawai'i and the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope, a team of astronomers measured wind speeds on seven very hot, Jupiter-like exoplanets. The observations revealed that the winds on these planets are most likely governed by magnetic fields, providing the first robust measurement of magnetic activity on planets outside the Solar System. In this podcast, Dr. Hayley Beltz describes how these magnetic fields were discovered from observations using data from the Gemini North telescope in Hawai'i and the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope.   Bios: - Rob Sparks is in the Communications, Education and Engagement group at NSF's NOIRLab in Tucson, Arizona. - Dr. Hayley Beltz currently a Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Kansas and an incoming NHFP Sagan Fellow. Her work focuses looking at hot and ultrahot Jupiter atmospheres with three-dimensional atmospheric models and exploring how magnetic effects might change atmospheric circulation and appear observationally. She is also very passionate about teaching and mentoring students. You can find more about her, including recent papers at hayleybeltz.com   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

• Travelers in the Night Eps. 887 & 888: Apophis Bound & Investigating the Mystery of How Life Formed 07.06.2026 6分

  Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From February 2026. Today's 2 topics: - In April 2029 on one of the luckiest Friday the 13th in human history the 1,500 ft by 500 ft asteroid Apophis will pass within 23,600 miles of the Earth's surface traveling at some 4.6 mi/s. This is extremely fortunate since an Apophis impact would release the energy of scores of nuclear weapons and cause wide spread devastation. NASA's OSIRIS-APEX will become the companion of the potentially hazardous asteroid Apophis on 5 June 2029.   - On Earth living things are everywhere from the deepest ocean depths to the highest mountain tops. On our home planet RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) is a complex essential molecule involved in the process of translating genetic information into the working components of living cells. In a recent paper in the peer reviewed scientific journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Dr. Yuta Hirakawa and his team of two coauthors report on their experiments to produce RNA under conditions similar to those which may have occurred in the early history of Earth and Mars.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

• Guide To Space - Lunar Rovers, From Apollo to Artemis 04.06.2026 11分

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=larzCw9Vn-w From Jul 21, 2020. When the Apollo astronauts first landed on the Moon, they couldn't go far on foot. That's why the three final missions were equipped with Lunar Roving Vehicles, or Moon buggies, which allowed the astronauts to cover much more ground and do more science.   Now that NASA is returning to the Moon by 2024 as part of its Artemis Program, it's considering a fleet of new vehicles that will help astronauts roam far and wide across the surface of the Moon.    60 fps Apollo Videos from Dutchsteammachine: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRGEIYuo_HbUR6GhFLeEkPA   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

• Travelers in the Night Eps. 885 & 886: Dark Sky Network & Aviation and Space Weather 31.05.2026 6分

  Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From February 2026. Today's 2 topics: - Around the world those who value the natural night sky are evaluating the effects of light pollution. In addition to impairing astronomy and star gazing the past 100 years of increasing light pollution is proving to be harmful to human health and the natural world upon which we all depend. The purpose of the Dark Sky Network is monitor and facilitate the mitigation of the harmful effects of light pollution.   - The Earth's atmosphere does a good job of protecting humanity from space weather, however, occasionally a major event does break through our shield and gets our attention. Tree rings and ice cores have recorded past space weather events thousands of time larger than which have occurred in the modern age.

• UNAWE Space Scoop - Story Of the Sun's 'Road Trip' Through the Milky Way With Friends 30.05.2026 7分

  https://spacescoop.org/en/scoops/2605/story-of-suns-road-trip-through-the-milky-way-with-friends/ Did you know that our Sun and its many, uh, childhood friends were all born at a place much closer to the center of our Galaxy? Over the years, our Sun and its friends have been on sort of a speedy galactic tour traveling a distance of almost 10,000 light-years from the center of the Milky Way. But traveling much farther than that on a long curved trajectory! Astronomers call this the 'mass migration' of stars. Kind of like a flock of migrating birds.    How and when did these stellar siblings migrate to where they are now? To find out, a team of astronomers did some galactic archaeology, tracing the history of stars in our Galaxy. Using data from ESA's Gaia telescope, the team found almost 6,600 stars just like our Sun.

• H'ad astra historia - Ep. 303: A Review of This Month in Astronomical History 28.05.2026 22分

  Today's 'guest' is HAD's This Month in Astronomical History. I'll be reading two essays from the archives: Dr. Rebecca Charbonneau's Aug 2018 essay titled, "The Mysterious Wow! Signal" and Dr. Richard Fienberg's May 2022 essay titled, "The First Telescope on the Moon." This Month in Astronomical History is a lead-in to next month's interview with the new Editor, Dr. Mugdha Polimera.   H'ad astra historia is the official podcast for the Historical Astronomy Division of the American Astronomical Society. We're here to share stories from and about the people who study the stars, planets, and the cosmos. We'll be hearing from individuals who not only study the history of astronomy, but also those who lived it, who were "in the room" during pivotal events within the last 50 years or so.     podcast theme music: "Frost Waltz" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com), licensed under creative commons: by attribution 4.0 license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)    Podcaster:  Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes outer space and the people who study it.  She quite enjoys working as HAD's podcaster, sharing astronomy stories to you.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
