The 365 Days of Astronomy

Avivah Yamani hosts.

What is a rogue star? 

We have learned about the rogue planet or nomad planet, a planet without a star that is wandering in deep space in our galaxy. Now the question is.. how about the star. Do we have something like that? A star that is wandering alone in intergalactic space without a home galaxy?

What is a rogue or nomad planet?

If you heard the word planet, what would you be thinking? In modern days we normally think of it as an object orbiting a star. 

The term planet originally meant “wanderer”. Why is that?

Hosted by Dr. Pamela Gay and Christopher Miller (https://twitter.com/codeshaman & http://ctmiller.net/), with guests the author and educator Dr. Nathan Lowell & science teacher Erin Moore who tells us "… most people learn best by doing and gaming is a very active form of learning… a deeper set of learning…" Dr. Lowell tells us "Games require you to not only know what the thing is that you're trying to learn, but you have to understand it well enough to be able to apply it." There is also a segment on, ummm, bee spit.

Jupiter is our Solar System’s very own superhero. The giant planet is two and a half times more massive than all the rest of the planets in our Solar System combined. And with great mass, comes great gravity. With the super power of super-strong gravity, Jupiter plays a heroic role in our Solar System, protecting life on Earth.
