    Banging pots and pans would be better than the intro music. Wow that hurts my head. How hard would it be to record a new intro? 😑

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

NOIR Lab - Elusive Cloud Forming Chemicals Found On “The Accident”
Q: What did you learn about the accident from these observations in its atmosphere that was so interesting?
We confirmed that this object is only about 500 Kelvin with very low metallicity in its atmosphere.
Awesome Astronomy - The Search for Aliens with Seth Shostak
Q: Which do you predict will generate the most exciting science between SKA and JWST?
I favor the Square Kilometre Array because it's designed to cover more space and can be used for SETI, making it a big deal.
Awesome Astronomy - The Search for Aliens with Seth Shostak
Q: What happens at SETI when we discover possible habitable planets?
We don't get very excited about new exoplanet discoveries; once we figured out that almost all stars have planets, it's just like pointing at any star system and learning they probably have planets.
EVSN - Pulsating Stars, Watery Plumes From Europa & Pluto’s Haze
Q: What insights can you give us about the magnetic field?
Dr. Johnson explained that a magnetic field indicates that a planet's interior is still partially liquid and moving, which is crucial for understanding the planet's geology and atmosphere.
EVSN - Pulsating Stars, Watery Plumes From Europa & Pluto’s Haze
Q: What did you do to, well, probe Mars' magnetic field?
Dr. Johnson described how they used MAVEN data to investigate Mars' ancient magnetic field and established its timing regarding liquid water and atmospheres.
