S26E12 - JWST Sees Clouds on Titan // The Red Planet’s Curiously Sized Sand Dunes // Spectacular Falcon Heavy Launch

Hi there, Andrew Dunkley here from the Space Nuts podcast where we talk astronomy and space science. In this edition, episode 339, joining me will be Professor Fred Watson, Astronomer at Large. So what's coming up on this episode? Well, we're going to revisit an old favorite. We're going to the planet Mars with a couple of stories. One is something that often happens when you're looking at things in space. You see things that you think are familiar. This is a phenomenon known as pareidolia, and we're going to explore the latest item of pareidolia. We're also going to talk about the Perseverance Rover, which has stashed away its final sample of Martian rock. And of course, we're really keen to get our hands on those. We'll also answer some questions about traveling faster than light speed, what's going on with Artemis II and III. And a question sort of coming back to us, from something Fred said, about the L1 and L2 Lagrange points. Coming up on this edition of Space Nuts. Astronomy, Science, Space, and Stuff.

SpaceTime Series 26 Episode 24 *A study of the complex Martian subsurface Ground-penetrating radar from China's Martian rover Zhurong has revealed shallow impact craters and other geologic structures in the top five meters of the Red Planet's surface. *Astronomers angry over commercial satellite pollution There’s growing concern in the scientific community about the number of commercial satellites now being launched into orbit – many of which are reflecting so much light they’re destroying important astronomical research work. *Chinese spy satellites and balloons It’s been a busy start to 2023 for China with multiple rocket launches – many carrying military spy satellites as Beijing continues what Chinese President Xi Jinping and his communist government describes as preparations for war. *The Science Report Study shows one in six Australians over the age of 14 are still using tobacco, cannabis.
