This free-to-download production brings the combination of the International Gemini Observatory, funded in part by NSF and operated by NSF NOIRLab, and NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, funded by NSF and the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Science and jointly operated by NOIRLab and DOE’s SLAC, to the forefront of humanity’s quest to understand our ever-changing cosmos. This podcast discusses the production process of this planetarium show and tells listeners where how they can view the show.

From October 7, 2021.
An analysis of the most recent sample taken from the Moon and returned by the Chang’e-5
mission shows that the basaltic rock is about two billions years old. This age implies a previously unknown heat source in the region. Plus, how plants and animals record climate change, and this week’s What’s Up.

From Oct 12, 2010.
The fact that we've found a habitable planet candidate so soon after starting our search has important implications for the number of habitable planets that may exist in our galaxy - which was estimated to be around 10 billion.
Having found Gliese 581g so soon though, may mean one of two things. Either we were very lucky, or there are more planets out there than we thought. Based on this discovery, it's possible that we may have many more habitable planets than originally thought.
Perhaps 20 to 30 billion stars in our galaxy may have conditions suitable for life.

From September 22, 2008.
Look around you. Breathe in some air. Everything you can see and feel was formed in a star. Today we’ll examine that long journey that matter has gone through, forged and re-forged in the hearts of stars. In fact, the device you’re using to listen to this podcast has some elements formed in a supernova explosion.

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 August 2024.
Today's 2 topics:
- The asteroid Psyche may be one of the most expensive pieces of real estate in the solar system. It is a small world about 116 miles in diameter and is composed of almost pure nickel-iron metal. It is located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Scientists find evidence that Psyche may be the exposed core of a planet which was destroyed by collisions as it was trying to form long ago.
- Presently the surface of Mars is very dry and any liquid water that reaches it quickly boils away since the martian atmospheric pressure is what you could experience in your space suit 30 to 50 miles above the Earth's surface. However, since the martian gravity is about 1/3 that of the Earth, it's crust is less dense and more porous than what we find on our home planet.

Hosted by Tony Darnell.
From July 6, 2017.
If we send humans to Mars, will they be able to survive? How hostile is the solar system for human exploration? The Mars environment presents many challenges to human survival and long-term residence. In addition to radiation, unbreathable atmosphere, and dust storms, surviving alien microorganisms can present a health risk.
The US Congress has directed NASA to plan for a human mission to Mars. A critical element of the planning is to ensure the health and safety of astronauts travelling to, working on, and returning from the Red Planet.
Join Tony Darnell, Dr. Harley Thronson and Dr. Alberto Conti as they explore with Dr. Arnauld Nicogossian (George Mason University), Dr. Catharine A. Conley (NASA Planetary Protection Officer) and Professor Charles Doarn (University of Cincinnati) the challenges of living and working on Mars.

This week, we take a closer look at the weirdly twisty search for a possible planet in our outer solar system. We'll also take in the happy science of aurorae here, at Jupiter, and over Neptune, as well as a bunch of weird discoveries that has some people screaming "It's Aliens!" (it's not aliens).

Ralph Wilkins and Dr. Jenifer “Dr. Dust” Millard host.
Damien Phillips, John Wildridge and Dustin Ruoff produce.
From Jan 28, 2022.
Taking a look at how over the last 40 years we went from only knowing of the handful of planets in our solar system to knowing of around 5,000 planets littering the galaxy.
How have we discovered new planets?
How many are there?
How many stars have planets around them?
Are there star systems with multiple planets like our solar system?
Do we see the diversity of large gassy, small rocky and ringed planets around other stars?
And the big one - are any of them habitable?

Some of our favorite robots are rovers currently roving around the surface of the Moon & Mars. But there’s some pretty tricky terrain out there and engineers are scheming up clever ways to explore other worlds inspired by life that crawls, slithers, hops and flies. As we explore more surfaces and more complex surfaces throughout the solar system, mission teams are designing robot explorers that don't sit still and also don't rove. In this episode, we're going to take a look at the new technologies that are allowing technology to get around.

Today's 2 topics:
- 2017 will be (was) a good year to view comets with your unaided eye or a pair of binoculars.
- My Catalina Sky Survey teammate Richard Kowalski was surprised to find a moving point of light on some his images which was more than 50 times brighter than a typical Earth approaching object he observes. He was even more amazed when it was not cataloged as a known object and he reported his observations to the Minor Planet Center.

Recently, a team of astronomers found a new exoplanet, called 2M1510 (AB) b, that really surprised them. This new exoplanet is special — its orbit looks more like a Ferris wheel!
It goes up and over the top rather than around the side, traveling at a right angle to the carousel-like path we normally find. But having an unusual orbit is only part of the puzzle, and to see just how odd our new exoplanet is we also need to look at its stars.

From May 19, 2025.
In this week’s closer look we are going to look at the earth-facing missions that are getting dragged down by our atmosphere and will be forcibly retired by physics in the next few years, again with no replacements in the works. These missions allow us to do long term monitoring of our planet, its atmosphere, and the variables that help us understand everything from weather to climate change. We also look at cool new exoplanet discoveries, the beautiful death of a star, and tales from the launch pad.

Self-consciousness.
Dear Cheap Astronomy – Selfies in space.
Buzz Aldrin claims to have taken the first selfie in space in 1966, where he fixed a Hasselblad camera on the hull on Gemini 12 and then leant back before triggering the camera. Later on, in 1969, Neil Armstrong took an accidental selfie – the only still photo of him on the Moon where he and his camera are reflected in Buzz Aldrin’s visor.
Dear Cheap Astronomy – Is Hawking Radiation real?
Long-term listeners are probably familiar with Cheap Astronomy’s tendency to go a bit ranty in the face of any unreasonable acceptance of cosmology hypotheses. So, for example, the Universe is not only expanding but that expansion is accelerating. Sounds extraordinary, but there’s sound observational evidence to back it up.

From September 20, 2023.
Hosted by Tony Darnell.
Episode 39.
In recent years, scientists have made great strides in the search for extraterrestrial life. They have discovered thousands of exoplanets. And some of them are located in the habitable zone of their star, which means that liquid water could exist on their surface and is essential for life as we know it.
The search for life however, is a little more involved than finding planets, measuring their location and distance around the star and figuring out their location within a habitable zone. Astronomers need more information to learn if life may be there.

Hosted by: Fraser Cain and Dr. Pamela L. Gay
Streamed live on May 19, 2025.
Computers are getting smaller, faster and more capable, which has enabled an entirely mew class of satellites: CubeSats. A mission small enough that you can hold it in your hands, and yet powerful enough to even travel to other planets and send messages home.
Every year, our electronics seem to get smaller and more powerful, with today's smart watches being more fully featured than the computers Pamela and Fraser had as little kids. These tiny processors, sensors, and transmitters are allowing tiny satellites with powerful functionality, and today we take a look at how this is changing space exploration.
