Superflare Captured on Nearby Star & ESA Plans Nuclear Rocket for Deep Space Exploration

S26E56 - In this episode of SpaceTime, we cover a range of space and science news. Astronomers have captured a super flare erupting from a nearby star using a combination of space and ground-based observations. The European Space Agency has announced its plans to develop a nuclear-powered rocket for deep space exploration, following in the footsteps of NASA. With air pollution being a serious problem, ESA's air quality missions are taking a deep breath to understand and monitor its impact. In the Science Report, a study shows that following a Mediterranean-style diet may reduce the risk of dementia. New research also suggests that male woolly mammoths underwent Musth, just like modern-day elephants. Plus, Alex on Tech highlights the dangers of AI, and a new study shows that the Chat GPT-4 Open AI can answer medical questions better than most doctors.

S26E53: Astro News: Scary Barbie // Weird Asteroid // Dead Satellite

Welcome to this episode of SpaceTime, where we bring you some fascinating stories from the world of astronomy and space science. First up, astronomers have made an incredible discovery using an Artificial Intelligence program. They have found a supermassive black hole that is ripping apart a giant star in what is being called the brightest, most energetic, and longest-lasting stellar murder ever seen. This discovery has stunned the astronomy community, and we discuss the implications of this discovery. In our next story, we take a look at the weird asteroid Phaethon. A new study has claimed that the cometary tail generated by Phaethon is not dust, as previously thought, but rather sodium gas. We delve into the findings of this study and explore what it could mean for our understanding of this strange asteroid. Finally, we discuss the recent news of a dead NASA spacecraft crashing back to Earth. The spacecraft smashed into the ground in the northern African Sahara Desert, and we take a closer look at what happened and what we can learn from this incident. Plus The Science Report: Polar ice sheet melting records have toppled during the past decade. Scientists discover that a amphibian-killing fungus is more widespread than anyone had realized. A new self-repairing metallic coating for clothing and textiles. Alex on Tech: Apple win their court case Join us as we explore these fascinating stories and more in this episode of SpaceTime.Listen to SpaceTime on your favorite podcast app with our universal listen link: https://spacetimewithstuartgary.com/listen and access show links via https://linktr.ee/biteszHQ Additionally, listeners can support the podcast and gain access to bonus content by becoming a SpaceTime crew member through www.bitesz.supercast.com or through premium versions on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
