In this episode, we explore how astronomers observe the Milky Way using radio telescopes. A new large-scale radio map of our galaxy reveals structures that are hidden in visible light, including star-forming regions, supernova remnants, and large-scale magnetic features.
We discuss how radio telescopes work, why resolution matters, and what this new map tells us about the structure and evolution of our galaxy.


This episode offers a closer look at how modern radio astronomy is helping us better understand our cosmic home.
