    I enjoy very much your conversations. It’s the perfect pace, very entertaining and engaging. I love how things are exposed. When you talk about sth some questions may come to mind and very often you answer them while explaining. I think you really work on the topics and try to develop them very clearly!! Thanks a lot, please keep doing it!!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

s2e3: Exoplanets ExoWrapped
Q: What are the big questions that the missions currently are trying to explore?
The two main questions are: Is there an Earth 2.0? And is there a way to understand the formation processes of exoplanets?
s2e3: Exoplanets ExoWrapped

Today, we have found 5,788 confirmed Exoplanets and the field continues to grow, although the rate of discovery varies.

Q: How would you sum up the state of play on this particular area of astronomical research? Where are we on exo moons?
I think we're on the cusp of finding them. I think it's very interesting that we're on the cusp and that they are so difficult, given that we're quite good at finding exoplanets.
119: Astrocampus Turns Ten!
Q: What about alternate universes?
The concept of a multiverse arises from quantum mechanics, suggesting that every probabilistic event creates a branching of universes, but there is no way to confirm their existence.
119: Astrocampus Turns Ten!
Q: What do you think is on the other end of a black hole?
We don't know what happens to matter that enters a black hole; mathematically, there are ideas like wormholes, but we have no observational evidence yet.
