Pythagorean Astronomy

An monthly podcast by @chrisenorth, @zemogle and guests, covering topical stories in astronomy. An extended version of the astronomy roundup on @PythagTrousers.

We have a new podcast home - https://t.co/cp4NbXNaqZ. It should be easier to use for everyone. If you have a question of something you'd like us to cover, you can leave a message (though only if you have an anchor account, I'm afraid)!

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

In our latest episode, @zemogle and @chrisenorth discuss the latest aurora show, @ESA_Bepi status, results from @ESA_Euclid and @ESA_Webb and the largest camera ever at @VRubinObs. Then @itrharrison of @cardiffPHYSX discusses cosmological tensions https://t.co/89vfNPgZDx

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

Recent stories include the increasingly-traditional name plaque on @NASAEuropa, cannibal stars eating their own planets, Galactic Streams discovered by @ESAGaia, and the detection of ices in planetary system discovered by @NASAWebb @ESA_Webb

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

The latest episode is (finally) up! Feat @zemogle and @chrisenorth discuss recent news, while @astrofairy and @COSMO_83 from @cardiffPHYSX discuss the origin of dust in supernova explosions, and how a recently-detected event is changing our opinions https://t.co/NHG2UOPCPI

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

This month @zemogle and @chrisenorth talk lunar missions, Martian helicopters and galactic megastructures. Prof Chris Done (@durham_uni @DurhamPhysics) discuss first light from XRISM, the latest X-ray satellite from @JAXA_en @esascience @NASAUniverse

[ULA @ulalaunch]

LIFTOFF of the first United Launch Alliance #VulcanRocket!

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

It's that time of year, so here's @chrisenorth and @zemogle's review of a few missions in 2023, and a look forward to 2024 https://t.co/lcvSo1xOy5

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

In the latest episode, @chrisenorth and @zemogle discuss British space missions, @NASAPsyche, and something called "Synestia" - planet bashing together.

We also hear from @DuncanLorimer, 2023 @ShawPrize winner, about the detection of fast radio bursts

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

the latest episode has more of @itrharrison interviewing @DrAshleyNova (machine learning) @Niall_Jeffrey (modelling in astrophysics) and @AzzoniSusanna (CMB polarisation) - you can find that at https://t.co/r7ZwmGkzDR

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

Back in July @cardiffPHYSX hosted @NAM2023_Cardiff. There are now two episodes available with interviews. The first is July's, feat. @chrisenorth @itrharrison and @zemogle with interviews with @StellarPlanet (exoplanets) and @Emma_Alexander (galaxies)

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

Did you hear about the most energetic explosion ever seen? This month @astro_pwise (@AstroPhysSoton) and @COSMO_83 (@cardiffPHYSX) tell @chrisenorth about AT2021lwx. With @zemogle there's Fomalhaut, @esa_juice, neutrinos & @AstroPeggy's astronaut career https://t.co/wEOOoKgFjH

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

The latest episode is available at https://t.co/iSiVH9RZkv in which @chrisenorth and @zemogle talk about recent space news, from exploding rockets, Venusian volcanoes, comet-not-comets, burping black holes and impossible galaxies

[Astro Sten @Astro__Surf]

Great episode of @AstroPythag! With @chrisenorth discussing #BlackHoles with @drbecky_ Check it out here: https://t.co/jK0SsinUpb

[Chris North @chrisenorth]

This really was a deep dive, ranging from the Kerr solutions for spacetime around black holes to General Relativity. It would be convenient if this theory were true, but I think it's fair to say (as @drbecky_ and the authors agree - spoiler alert!) that the jury's still out!

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

Could black holes explain the expansion of the Universe? We take a deep dive into new research that implies they could, and discuss possible challenges to the result. And since this is all about black holes, who better to speak to than @drbecky_ https://t.co/uSJrtG67jS

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

Having covered the science of the CMB, B-modes and QUIJOTE, this time @chrisenorth, @itrharrison and @Dr_Whatson discuss the advantages and challenges of observing from space, the threat of satellites, and what the plans are for the upcoming @SimonsObs.

https://t.co/ANsVAitWpX

[Pythagorean Astronomy @AstroPythag]

This month @zemogle and @chrisenorth lament missing the recent outburst of the Northern Lights, and dabble in theories about the Moon, black holes and dark energy. Meanwhile, we continue the exploration CMB observations with @itrharrison and @Dr_Whatson https://t.co/ANsVAitWpX
