Two episodes tonight:
#167 - Future Civilizations: Let's assume that humans survive the
next few hundred years without destroying ourselves, or the planet,
and we actually become a space faring civilization. What kinds of
challenges will we face, and what projects will we build to expand
ourselves out into the Solar System and eventually the galaxy. You
just need to think big.
#162 - Edwin Hubble: You might know the name "Hubble" because of the
Hubble Space Telescope. But this phenomenal observatory was named
after one of the most influential astronomers in modern history.
Hubble discovered that galaxies are speeding away from us in all
directions, leading to our current understanding of an expanding
Universe. Let's learn about the man behind the telescope.

That's Cosmic! What makes up the universe? Lots of tiny particles
with strange names: bosons, leptons, quarks and neutrinos. But
physicists think there are more members to be discovered in this
particle zoo. From strange particles to dark matter to vibrating
strings.


Thanks for listening to a Universe of Possibilities, on Astronomy.FM!
