#755: Intermediate Mass Black Holes
There are stellar-mass & supermassive black holes. But very little evidence of anything in between. Where are all the intermediate-mass black holes?
#754: K2-18b
It’s in the news and people are claiming aliens… but is it aliens? Let’s see what the data actually says.
#753: Why is the Moon’s South Pole So Interesting?

#752: Should We Go to the Moon or Mars Next?
We are on the verge of sending humans back to the Moon. At the same time others prefer we focus our exploration on Mars. It’s a tough choice.
#751: Vacuum Energy
Even empty space isn’t empty. It’s filled with quantum fluctuations of spacetime itself. Which can be measured with Casimir Effect experiment
#750: Supernova Early Warning System
If we can accurately detect neutrinos being emitted during supernova, we might be able to get on target before the light show even starts.
#749: Dark Energy Changing Over Time
We thought Dark Energy was constant, but new results from DESI say maybe not, and if it wasn’t the Hubble Tension would be easier to solve.
#748: Fast Radio Bursts
Fast Radio Bursts the briefest of moments, some dead stars can flash brighter than their entire galaxy (in Radio light) and then live to do it again and again. It’s time for an update on fast radio bursts, a phenomenon we’ve only known about for a few decades.
#747: Rogue Planets
Most planets orbit stars. That’s the rule, right? Sometimes planets just go rogue. Let’s learn about planets living free from stars.
#746: Dust Storms
What causes these storms and how do they work differently on the worlds in the solar system. But what about the exoplanets?
