What happens if astronauts throw stuff from orbit? Can we travel through a black hole? What is our Sun's place in the Milky Way? How can human spaceflight become profitable? Answering all these questions and more in this week's Q&A show.

Could we repair missions like JWST and Gaia? Polaris Dawn returns to Earth, did Earth once have rings? and a peanut-shaped asteroid just drifted past Earth.

This is an unusual interview for my channel. It's mostly about AI, our current developments and the threats it poses to us.

What's the maximum speed you can get from a gravity assist? Can we have a double gravitational lens? What do you need to do to a phone to sent it to space? Answering all these questions and more in this week's Q&A show.

Polaris Dawn launches and completes the first private spacewalk, the surface of a giant star is resolved with incredible detail, Starliner comes home empty, and amazing new images of Mercury from BepiColumbo.

Stars oscillate. Even the Sun does. And we can learn a lot about them by studying those oscillations. How is it done and what can we learn? Finding out in this interview.
