  • Ask A Spaceman Ep. 267: Is the Universe Older than We Think?
    Mar 3 2026

    Hosted by Dr. Paul M. Sutter.

    How can anyone agree on the age of the Universe? And how can we be so confident if it's all just a bunch of models? What if the Universe is extra lumpy, does that change anything? I discuss these questions and more in today's Ask a Spaceman!

  • Astronomy Cast Ep. 784: Pulsar-Powered Science
    Mar 2 2026

    Off label uses for Pulsars…

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XMJBiJao6M

    Hosted by: Fraser Cain (@frasercain) and Dr. Pamela L. Gay (@CosmoQuest)

    Streamed live on Feb 16, 2026.

    Pulsars are dead stars and fascinating in their own right, but astronomers can use their predictable rotation for exploring the cosmos in a series of amazing ways. We can detect gravitational waves, navigate the solar system, test general relativity and find exoplanets. Pulsars are the time keepers of the sky, with their precise ticking allowing researchers to track gravitational waves, find exotic planets, and study weird relativistic effects. Come learn about how pulsars can be used to explore our universe.

  • Travelers in the Night Eps. 859 & 860: Powerful Solar Storm & World's Largest Solar Telescope
    Mar 1 2026

    Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org

    From July & August 2025.

    Today's 2 topics:

    - After the Earth the Sun is the most important object for human beings in the Universe. It is the energy source which produces our food and is the source for all of the energy and motion around us except for geothermal and nuclear energy sources. The Sun is normally well behaved the exception being solar storms which can dump incredible amounts of energy onto the Earth. Scientists are working hard to understand solar super storms to enable humans to mitigate the trillions of dollars damage one could cause to our modern electronic technology.

    - The US National Science Foundation's Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope is the worlds largest solar telescope. It is perched 10,000 feet above sea level on the top of Haleakalā on the Hawaiian island Maui. Its location and 4 meter mirror enables the Inouye to see details in the solar atmosphere as small in diameter as the island of Manhattan. 3D maps of the solar atmosphere produced by the Inouye's new Visible Tunable Filter will enable humans to put their equipment into a safe mode when necessary.

  • The Cosmic Savannah Ep. 79: RADHIANCE Research at the University of Oxford
    Feb 28 2026

    Hosted by Dr. Jacinta Delhaize, Dr. Tshiamiso Makwela, Dr. Daniel Cunnama & François Campher

    With Tumelo Mangena, Leyya Stockenstroom and Ndivhuwo Netshiavha.

    In this episode, we hear from three postgraduate astronomy students from the University of Cape Town about their worldly adventures during a research trip to the University of Oxford in the UK!

    PhD student Tumelo Mangena and Masters students Leyya Stockenstroom and Ndivhuwo Netshiavha are part of the RADHIANCE research group led by our very own Jacinta Delhaize! They use world-leading telescopes, like South Africa's MeerKAT, to examine the light from distant galaxies to try and understand why they have mysteriously changed and evolved over the history of the Universe. Their team name, RADHIANCE, stands for "Radio-Based Analysis and Detection of HI, AGN, star-formatioN, and their Cosmic Evolution" – and they even have a cute logo!

  • EVSN - Earlier Bacterial Life May Have Formed Far Earlier Than Thought
    Feb 27 2026

    From April 15, 2022.

    An analysis of microscopic features in rocks from the Nuvvuagittuq Supracrustal Belt in Quebec, Canada, which date back between 3.75 and 4.28 billion years, finds evidence of possible microbial life. Plus, a supermassive black hole precursor, temperatures on Neptune, check-ins with various spacecraft, and our weekly What's Up segment.

  • H'ad Astra Historia - Ep. 301 – Take the Gloves Off, Part 1
    Feb 26 2026

    Today we're talking with Dr. Richard Tresch Fienberg (https://aas.org/press/richard-tresch-fienberg), astronomer and science communicator, who shares his experiences as Expert Astronomer on Sky & Telescope magazine's September 2025 Astronomy Tour to "Galileo's Italy." Though enjoying retirement, he volunteers his time for the American Astronomical Society as Senior Advisor to the CEO, and is a Senior Contributing Editor with Sky & Telescope. This is the first of two episodes covering our interview.

    Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who really likes outer space and the people who study it. She quite enjoys working as HAD's podcaster, sharing astronomy stories to you.
