Venture into the cosmic depths with SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 63, where we unearth some of the universe's most ancient stars hiding in the halo of our very own Milky Way. These celestial elders, dubbed SAS stars, are remnants from a time when galaxies were just beginning to coalesce, offering a unique window into the universe's formative years. With their discovery, we edge closer to unraveling the mysteries of galaxy formation and the evolution of the cosmos.Next, we embark on a journey alongside Europe's JUICE spacecraft, now one year into its monumental eight-year voyage to the icy moons of Jupiter. This mission promises to probe the potential habitable environments beneath the moons' frozen crusts and could redefine our search for extraterrestrial life within our solar system.Finally, we witness Russia flexing its spacefaring muscles with the test launch of the new heavy-lift Angara A-5 rocket, aiming to usher in a new era for Russian space exploration and retire the venerable Proton rockets.Join us on SpaceTime with Stuart Gary for a cosmic exploration that spans from our galactic neighborhood to the far reaches of the Jovian system, and beyond.(00:00) This is spacetime series 27, episode 63. (00:46) Astronomers have discovered three of the oldest stars in the universe(05:25) The Jupiter icy moons explorer, or juice spacecraft, celebrated its first year in space(11:15) The Kremlin have undertaken a successful test launch of their new Angara a five rocket(12:41) Up to 246 million older adults could be exposed to dangerous acute heat by 2050(15:11) There's been another Bigfoot sighting in Manchester, EnglandSupport:Tune into SpaceTime with Stuart Gary, available on your favorite podcast app, and follow our journey through the stars on Twitter @stuartgary, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook.This episode is proudly supported by our patrons who help keep the show going.

S27E63: Galactic Archaeology: Unearthing the Milky Way's Earliest Star Clusters

Set sail through the cosmic seas with SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 62, as we chart a course to a newly discovered Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting an ultra-cool red dwarf star just a stone's throw away in the galactic neighborhood. The discovery of Speculos-3b, a mere 55 light-years from Earth, stirs intrigue with its eternal days and nights due to likely tidal locking, offering a unique glimpse into the conditions of potentially habitable worlds around the most common stellar inhabitants of our galaxy.We then drift to the Milky Way's outskirts, where a stellar slow lane has been uncovered, challenging assumptions about the mass and dark matter content at the heart of our galactic home. This revelation, derived from Gaia and APOGEE data, suggests a lighter core and less dark matter than previously believed, sending ripples through our understanding of the cosmos.Our voyage continues as we seek to uncover dark matter's elusive influence on stellar streams with the help of the upcoming Vera C. Rubin Observatory. This bastion of observation promises to shed light on the ghostly gravitational effects of dark matter on these celestial ribbons, offering a new perspective on the most dominant yet unseen force in the universe.Join us on SpaceTime with Stuart Gary for a journey into these cosmic curiosities and more, as we navigate the mysteries of space and the wonders it holds.(00:00) This is spacetime series 27, episode 62, for broadcast 22 May 2024(00:46) Astronomers have discovered a new Earth sized planet orbiting an ultracool red dwarf(04:24) The Milky Way's gravitational core may contain less dark matter than previously thought(10:26) The Vera C.

S27E62: Earth's New Neighbor: Unveiling Speculus-3b in the Cosmic Backyard

Embark on a celestial odyssey with SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 61, where we witness the Sun unleash its most powerful solar flare in nearly two decades, sparking a series of geomagnetic storms that dazzled the skies with extraordinary auroras. The flare, an enormous X8.7 class eruption, marked the pinnacle of a week of solar ferocity, with the Earth enduring a bombardment that produced northern and southern lights visible far beyond their usual latitudes.We then delve into the mysteries of Earth's magnetotail, where NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale mission has observed unusual substorms that could reshape our understanding of magnetic reconnection and its role in auroral phenomena.Finally, we plunge into the depths of the sea with China's construction of the deep-sea neutrino telescope, TRIDENT, designed to scan the cosmos for neutrinos and unlock the secrets of cosmic rays and the extreme universe.Join us on SpaceTime with Stuart Gary for an exploration of these awe-inspiring events and more, as we traverse the vastness of space and the wonders it holds.(00:00) This is spacetime series 27, episode 61, for broadcast on 20 May 2024(00:43) The sun has produced its biggest solar flare in nearly two decades(10:28) NASA scientists have detected an unusual event in Earth's magnetotail(21:35) The south pole neutrino detector uses liquid water rather than solid ice(28:39) Supernova is basically a neutrino explosion that has this tiny optical signature(33:00) New observations confirm that April 2024 was the hottest month on record(35:43) A new study claims males with low testosterone may have an increased risk of dying prematurely(37:03) Shroud of Turin supposedly shows Jesus after crucifixion(42:25) Tim Mendham: crucifixion was fairly common in those daysSupport the show and access ad-free episodes at https://www.spreaker.com/show/spacetime.
