@joel_archie @FFScout_Joe Hey @joel_archie would love to use this image in our little astronomy podcast this week, would that be OK?

[syzygy @SyzygyPod]

Well, I mean ... not for very *long* obvs

This is how it would look Saturn if it was at the same distance as the moon.

It's been nearly a year since @NASAWebb arrived at its destination 1 million miles away. It completed the most complex deployment ever attempted in space, and returned the deepest infrared image ever seen. Have questions? Tag them #UnfoldTheUniverse. https://t.co/hnuNnNeRRp

There once was an astronomer named Emily,
Who took a break for her baby so silly,
But back to the stars she did race,
With a smile on her face,
And now podcasts are back Yipilly!

Syzygy recording today! I promise new eps will be better than my rhymes (assisted by AI).

Hey hey, it’s pod day. In this week’s episode, there’s a whole new nova to explore — not the super one, or the hyper one, but a cute little micro-nova! Plus a lesson on scientific analogies. Get at it: https://t.co/13stbFG8Ca

Now this, this is wild. A solar eclipse, in HD, from the surface of Mars.

Goosebumps.

And … it’s a SYZYGY!

And most recently, episode 94 — we return to baby stars, but this time in the modern era: there are stars being born *right now*, and we can see them (though it’s not always easy). https://t.co/KEaxdZuk4e

[syzygy @SyzygyPod]

A few more baby-themed pods have happened (but no baby-themed babies as yet …). Check em out …
1/3

[syzygy @SyzygyPod]

In ep 92 we look at the first infant stars in the universe – big, rowdy and short-lived, formed just hundreds of millions of years after the Big Bang. All the details at https://t.co/slHDKYusVT

[syzygy @SyzygyPod]

Then we wondered, if you’ve got the first stars, when did the first baby galaxies happen? Before the stars? With the stars? After the stars? Ep 93 goes deep: https://t.co/PYW63KxLQ4

Need something warm, merry and bright for the holidays? How about another syzygy episode about touching the Sun- which is warmer than you might think! Episode 90 up now! https://t.co/3ty5pi0C45

[syzygy @SyzygyPod]

Galaxies munching galaxies munching galaxies munching … It’s like Russian nesting dolls in here. Emily explains Galactic Cannibalism, and takes a look at an interesting globular cluster in the LMC — all in the latest ep: https://t.co/7gbXXsBP0J

[syzygy @SyzygyPod]

What could possibly be more exciting than seeing a star explode in a nearby galaxy? Well being able to see what it was doing before it went boom of course! Episode 87 explores what we can learn from a lucky chance sighting of a Supernova progenitor.

Sibling pod ep alert: Woot Woot Woot!

[Science, Possibly podcast @SciencePossibly]

Hey hey! Another episode, and this time James talks about failure: his specifically, and scientists’ in general. But, in a good way! Plus, he brought a little treat for our first in-person recording. https://t.co/Ucyl7NBaO3
