The Space, Astronomy & Science Podcast.
SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 20
*The Enigma of Pearl SDG: A Galaxy That Defies Expectations
Astronomers are baffled by the discovery of Pearl SDG, a quiescent dwarf galaxy that exists against the odds, isolated and star-formation-free. Detected by NASA's Webb Space Telescope, this galaxy challenges our understanding of galactic evolution and could redefine scientific theories on how galaxies form.
*Virgin Galactic's Space Tourism Hits Another Snag
Virgin Galactic's space tourism ambitions hit turbulence as an alignment pin issue on its WhiteKnightTwo mothership leads to a temporary grounding of operations. The incident, occurring during the Galactic Six mission, raises questions about the future of commercial space travel.
*Odysseus' Lunar Odyssey: NASA's Next Leap to the Moon
NASA gears up for the launch of the Odysseus lunar lander, part of the intuitive machines IM-1 mission. This historic flight, aboard a Falcon 9 rocket, aims to be the first privately built spacecraft to touch down on the moon, marking a significant milestone in lunar exploration.
*Cygnus' Cosmic Cargo Delivery
A Northrop Grumman Cygnus spacecraft docks with the ISS, delivering over 3.7 metric tons of supplies and scientific gear. Among the cargo is a surgical robot and a 3D printer, both set to revolutionize how astronauts live and work in space.
