Will 2024 be the year for breakthrough discoveries in space? NASA has already been making major discoveries with the JWST, next up is Artemis, the Parker Solar Probe and more. While SpaceX is looking to have an orbital flight with Starship.
Fraser Cain, publisher of Universe Today, joins John Michael Godier to discuss his preferred solution to the fermi paradox.

I've read that in many parts of the world the skies are actually getting darker. Alas it's because energy prices have skyrocketed and basically they can't keep quite so many lights on... so that isn't good. Though on the other hand, my town floodlights the cathedrals' spires (there are 2) at night, and while it's pretty who's looking at it at 3am on a Tuesday in winter? Maybe a bit frugality would do us good?!

I could see the glow of the Milky Way, and so many stars in the Pleiades -- I remember asking my Mom if that was the Little Dipper, because we couldn't see it like that where we lived haha!

Soon as that little piece of the sun is covered it totally changes the way it looks. The only problem with the eclipses are so many people like then if you want to make plans around it you got to pay and book like over a decade before hand. I can't even book a year ahead. What I really want to see is one of those meteor storm!

The Meteor Storm of “66” was a Leonid Outburst… my Uncles and Grandfather were Deer Hunting at the time… the older Uncle stumbled outside in the early morning to take a whiz. As he was taking care of business, still half asleep, he looked Up… he said it looked like it was Raining Meteors. He realized how special this occurrence was, so he roused the Camp. Everyone stood and watched in Awe, until it grew too light to see. I’ve read that the Leonids hold a good chance of producing a Storm in 33-35 year cycles. I was born in “67”… I have yet to see a Meteor Storm… though I have perused the Storm. Seen some Really Good Showers… but never the Storm. Cheers!

To see what the meteor storm of 1966 was like, drive through falling snow with big flakes at highway speed at night with the high beam of your headlights on. There was another meteor storm around 1970 that I've never seen mentioned. It had dozens of bright green meteors a minute, and the sky was covered with meteors too dim to show color, lasting from before midnight until dawn, visible to me in a moving car from the Texas Panhandle to Colorado.

A couple years ago I found what I am 99./9 % sure is that roll of film as its the only 1000 speed film roll we ever had at my house and odds are that is the roll. I have not had it developed yet because idk where or if I should get it developed.

We also don't have the slightest clue as to the diversity of exo planets.

I ran across Fraser’s channel years ago but got turned off by one thing he said. (I know, I shouldn’t be so touchy). He was taking about Bigfoot/Sasquatch and said, and I’m paraphrasing here, ‘If Bigfoot was real wouldn’t people be reporting sightings of it?’ And I was thinking ’But people ARE reporting seeing something they/we call Bigfoot!’ Bigfoot might not be what researchers think it is, but astronomers often have to change what they think of space. The comment revealed some kind of disconnect or cognitive dissonance in him, so I went to other channels. Imagine the reaction Fraser would give me if I said the sun, moon, planets and all of outer space itself is not real even though people are reporting see them all.

@TheTyTyXD 5 ай бұрын

Problem is we have no substantial way to test bigfoot as a hypothesis. We see almost no supporting evidence that actually holds up to scrutiny. We know astronomical bodies are real because we have a hundred different ways to observe them. They aren’t equal theories so fraiser takes the piss.
