  • Triumphs in Spaceflight: Starship Insights, China's Feats, and Martian Water Ice Discoveries
    2024/01/31

    Prepare to have your cosmic curiosity satiated as we embark on a journey through the latest spaceflight marvels and astronomical wonders. We kick off with a critical update on SpaceX's Starship's second flight test, setting the record straight on what really happened post-staging. We then zoom over to China's impressive Tainzhou 7 mission and the leaps made with their Tiangong space station, a feat of human ingenuity that's orbiting right alongside the ISS in the annals of space history.

    This week's episode is a treasure trove for space enthusiasts, filled with engineering feats and celestial discoveries. Marvel at the synergies of international space programs as we spotlight Japan's lunar endeavor and the latest advancements of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket. Plus, we take a closer look at the perseverance of NASA's Ingenuity helicopter on Mars, which continued to defy expectations to the bitter end. And we haven't forgotten the space buffs; your burning questions about space launch investigations and recent solar flares are answered with the kind of detail that only true aficionados can appreciate.

    Ending on a high note, we're bringing you the cosmic phenomena that'll have you gazing skyward in awe. We tackle the mind-bending ideas surrounding panspermia and the stunning revelations from the Event Horizon Telescope and the James Webb Space Telescope that are reshaping our understanding of the universe. As we near the zenith of solar activity, we'll share the thrill of the upcoming solar eclipse and our own plans to capture its glory. So, strap in for an interstellar ride that will expand your horizons and ignite your passion for the final frontier.

  • Enter 2024: India's Early Start, X-Rays, and China's Gravity Saga
    2024/01/15

    Set off with Blake and I, as we launch into the cosmic wonders and latest spaceflight achievements. From the thrilling details of India's first 2024 expedition to SpaceX's monumental 300th successful launch, this episode rockets through the most captivating stories from the final frontier. We salute India's efforts in space sustainability with Poem 3's orbital reduction, and prepare for a deep dive into China's new space ambitions.

    Misfires and mysteries are part of the cosmic odyssey, too. We reflect on the bittersweet saga of Astrobotic’s Peregrine lunar lander — from the payload diversity, including international robots and space legends' memorials, to the grappling with a mission not gone as planned. Meanwhile, China opens the year with their own celestial quartet, sending four Tainmu-1 weather satellites to the cosmos, setting the stage for a potential showdown with SpaceX’s record-breaking pace. Plus, get stirred by the first supernatural snapshots from the XRISM mission that may unlock the secrets of supernovas and galactic clusters.

    Our space trek doesn't shy away from Earthly endeavors, either. We marvel at the Space Shuttle Endeavour's new LA exhibit and NASA's hush-hush X-59 supersonic jet, designed to tame the thunderous sonic boom. But it’s not just hardware getting a reality check; Neptune and Uranus reveal their true colors, and we're left questioning what other galactic 'facts' might be awaiting a rewrite. Wrap your head around the accidental discovery of a dark primordial galaxy, ponder the potential spectacle of Beetlejuice's final act, and join us for an episode that promises to leave you starstruck and hungry for the next cosmic reveal.

  • 2023 Recap: A Year in Review
    2024/01/01

    Buckle up as we unpack a year that's been nothing short of astronomical. From the 211 rockets that kissed the sky to the Starlink constellation's ever-expanding network, we've got insight on SpaceX's trials and tribulations including Starship.

    Rocket science isn't just for the big players; we're zooming in on the underdogs and their strides, too. Relativity Space's 3D printed marvel, Terran 1, has made history, and we're already counting down to their Terran R. But it's not all about the launches; we've got the scoop on Rocket Lab's Electron and the logistical ballet of ISS resupply missions. From the contrasting fates of Virgin Galactic and Virgin Orbit to Axiom's sleek new spacesuits – it's a universe of innovation we're exploring.

    Finally, we're setting the controls for the heart of science with ESA's Juice and Euclid missions, poised to unravel Jupiter's secrets and the cosmic web of dark matter. And if the James Webb Space Telescope's snapshots have you starry-eyed, just wait until you hear about our sun's feisty flare-ups and the star-chomping phenomena out there. Plus, we're venturing into the unknown following the UAP congressional hearing – it's a space odyssey that has us questioning if we're truly alone in the vast expanse. So, join us on SpaceWeek for a galactic recap that promises to be out of this world.
