003 | The bigger they are, the faster they burn: What makes a star a star? When will Betelgeuse explode? Amanda explores what "any day now" means in astronomy and Alan starts measuring mass in millions of marsupials. by Cosmic Vertigo
27 min listen
000 | Welcome to the party! (That's us): Meet your hosts, astronomers Dr Amanda Bauer and Dr Alan Duffy. by Cosmic Vertigo
3 min listen
001 | A giant lump of rock and iron: It’s drifting away from Earth at the same rate that your fingernails grow, but the Moon is still our closest neighbour - so close, that we’ve left quite a lot of litter on its surface… by Cosmic Vertigo
23 min listen
002 | Measly little specks of dust: Our Solar System started out as a chaotic Primordial Pancake. Now it hosts the eight planets we know and love, plus poor old Pluto, plus some other stuff. Like asteroids with their own moons. by Cosmic Vertigo
29 min listen
007 | Black holes don't suck: Science fiction movies make it pretty clear that black holes are terrifying, all-consuming monsters. For astronomers there’s no cooler place to try and see. by Cosmic Vertigo
31 min listen
006 | A pretty exciting place: It's a patchy, pale river in the sky - and a twirling spiral of 400 billion stars. It’s also headed for a dazzling intergalactic train wreck. Welcome to our Milky Way. by Cosmic Vertigo
18 min listen
009 | Emptier than empty and getting even emptier: In the unimaginably vast gaps between galaxies, something is accelerating the universe towards a lonely future. Alan and Amanda shake their heads at Dark Energy. by Cosmic Vertigo

21 min listen
014 | Emptier than empty: We’re told space is a vast empty vacuum. But how empty can it be, if we know it’s full of stars and black holes, nebulas and galaxies? Alan and Amanda hop aboard a space elevator and rise through the Earth's atmospheric layers to explore our not-so-empty Universe. by Cosmic Vertigo

Episode 553: Bringing Mars To Earth. The Plans For a Mars Sample Return Mission: One of the great accomplishments of the Apollo missions was to bring home hundreds of kilograms of lunar rock. Suddenly, geologists had a lifetime’s worth of lunar samples captured from several different spots across the Moon. These rocks and dust have been under continuous analysis since the Apollo 11 astronauts came home over 50 years ago. And they’re still making discoveries. Scientists have samples of the Sun’s solar wind, particles from a comet’s tail, a few grams from an asteroid, with more coming shortly. But there’s one world, the focus of so much scientific study, which has never had a sample returned: Mars. NASA and the European Space Agency have been making plans to bring a sample home from Mars for decades, and now, missions could fly in the next few years, finally bringing a chunk of the Red Planet home to Earth for us to study directly. by Universe Today Podcast
