00:00:00 --> 00:00:01 welcome to astronomy daily where we

00:00:01 --> 00:00:03 cover the latest space and astronomy

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06 news I'm your host Anna and in today's

00:00:06 --> 00:00:08 episode we'll explore exciting

00:00:08 --> 00:00:10 developments from China's Space Program

00:00:10 --> 00:00:12 NASA's day of remembrance spacex's

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14 starlink Innovations and more

00:00:14 --> 00:00:17 fascinating stories from the cosmos so

00:00:17 --> 00:00:19 let's get started with today's news

00:00:19 --> 00:00:21 China continues to make significant

00:00:21 --> 00:00:23 strides in its space Ambitions with the

00:00:23 --> 00:00:25 latest launch of their thousand sales

00:00:25 --> 00:00:28 Mega constellation project earlier this

00:00:28 --> 00:00:31 week A Long March 6A rocket successfully

00:00:31 --> 00:00:33 delivered 18 new satellites into orbit

00:00:33 --> 00:00:36 from the Taiwan satellite launch Center

00:00:36 --> 00:00:37 in northern

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39 China this marks the fourth batch of

00:00:39 --> 00:00:41 satellites for this ambitious internet

00:00:41 --> 00:00:44 constellation project bringing the total

00:00:44 --> 00:00:46 number of thousand sales satellites in

00:00:46 --> 00:00:47 orbit to

00:00:47 --> 00:00:51 72 the project also known as chanon is

00:00:51 --> 00:00:53 being led by Shanghai spacecom satellite

00:00:53 --> 00:00:56 technology and has some impressive goals

00:00:56 --> 00:00:58 they're aiming to construct a

00:00:58 --> 00:01:00 constellation of 14 Satellites with

00:01:01 --> 00:01:03 plans to have around 600 operational by

00:01:03 --> 00:01:05 the end of 2025 the company has already

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07 secured substantial funding raising

00:01:07 --> 00:01:10 nearly $1 billion in early 2024 to

00:01:10 --> 00:01:13 support this massive undertaking what's

00:01:13 --> 00:01:14 particularly interesting about these

00:01:14 --> 00:01:16 launches is the Innovative approach

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18 China is taking with their rocket

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21 technology the Long March 6A rocket used

00:01:21 --> 00:01:22 for this mission is unique in Chinese

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25 space flight being their first and only

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27 launcher to combine a liquid propellant

00:01:27 --> 00:01:29 core stage with solid propellant side

00:01:29 --> 00:01:30 boosters

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32 this configuration allows it to lift

00:01:32 --> 00:01:35 around 4 kg into a sun synchronous

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38 orbit however it hasn't all been smooth

00:01:38 --> 00:01:41 sailing the earlier launches have shown

00:01:41 --> 00:01:43 mixed results with the first batch of

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45 satellites successfully raising their

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47 orbits to their operational altitude of

00:01:47 --> 00:01:51 about 1,60 km the second batch however

00:01:51 --> 00:01:54 has shown limited orbit raising activity

00:01:54 --> 00:01:56 suggesting possible technical issues

00:01:56 --> 00:01:58 with those satellites this launch is

00:01:58 --> 00:02:00 part of China's broader space missions

00:02:00 --> 00:02:01 for

00:02:01 --> 00:02:04 2025 which may include up to 100 orbital

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06 launches among these are planned crude

00:02:06 --> 00:02:08 missions to their tiangong space station

00:02:08 --> 00:02:11 and the exciting tanan 2 asteroid sample

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13 return Mission scheduled for later this

00:02:13 --> 00:02:16 year next up in a moving tribute to

00:02:16 --> 00:02:18 those who made the ultimate sacrifice in

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20 Humanity's quest to explore space NASA

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22 held its annual day of remembrance

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24 ceremonies across multiple facilities at

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26 Kennedy Space Center in Florida and

00:02:26 --> 00:02:28 Johnson Space Center in Houston NASA

00:02:28 --> 00:02:30 Personnel gathered to honor the cruise

00:02:30 --> 00:02:32 of three tragic missions that shaped the

00:02:32 --> 00:02:34 agency's approach to safety and Mission

00:02:34 --> 00:02:37 planning deputy director Kelvin Manning

00:02:37 --> 00:02:39 of Kennedy Space Center emphasized that

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41 these commemorations serve as crucial

00:02:41 --> 00:02:43 reminders that we cannot allow time to

00:02:43 --> 00:02:46 diminish the lessons learned from these

00:02:46 --> 00:02:49 tragedies the losses span different eras

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51 of space exploration beginning with the

00:02:51 --> 00:02:54 Apollo one fire in January 1967 which

00:02:54 --> 00:02:56 claimed the lives of astronauts Roger

00:02:56 --> 00:02:59 chaffy Ed White and Gus Gom during a

00:02:59 --> 00:03:02 ground test of their Command Module the

00:03:02 --> 00:03:04 Challenger disaster struck 19 years

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06 later when the space shuttle broke apart

00:03:06 --> 00:03:09 just 73 seconds after launch the crew of

00:03:09 --> 00:03:12 seven included dick scobby Michael Smith

00:03:12 --> 00:03:15 Judith Resnik Ronald McNair Ellison

00:03:15 --> 00:03:18 onzuka Gregory Jarvis and Christa

00:03:18 --> 00:03:20 mcauliff who would have been the first

00:03:20 --> 00:03:22 teacher in Space the space shuttle

00:03:22 --> 00:03:25 Colombia's loss in 2003 marked another

00:03:25 --> 00:03:26 devastating chapter in space flight

00:03:27 --> 00:03:29 history as the Orbiter attempted

00:03:29 --> 00:03:31 re-entry it disintegrated taking with it

00:03:31 --> 00:03:34 the lives of Rick Husband William mcul

00:03:34 --> 00:03:37 Michael Anderson David Brown calp

00:03:37 --> 00:03:40 pachala Laurel Clark and isan Ramone

00:03:41 --> 00:03:42 each of these crew members represented

00:03:42 --> 00:03:44 groundbreaking achievements in space

00:03:44 --> 00:03:46 exploration including the first

00:03:46 --> 00:03:48 indian-american and Israeli astronauts

00:03:48 --> 00:03:51 to reach orbit these anniversaries

00:03:51 --> 00:03:52 clustered together in the calendar

00:03:53 --> 00:03:55 remind us that space exploration despite

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57 its tremendous advances remains an

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00 Endeavor that demands our utmost respect

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02 vigilance and commitment to

00:04:02 --> 00:04:05 safety as we push forward to New

00:04:05 --> 00:04:07 Frontiers the legacy of these Brave

00:04:07 --> 00:04:10 Pioneers continues to influence how we

00:04:10 --> 00:04:13 approach the challenges and risks of

00:04:13 --> 00:04:14 human space

00:04:14 --> 00:04:16 flight SpaceX is taking its

00:04:16 --> 00:04:18 revolutionary starlink satellite Network

00:04:18 --> 00:04:20 to the next level with an ambitious new

00:04:21 --> 00:04:22 capability that could transform how we

00:04:22 --> 00:04:25 stay connected worldwide the company is

00:04:25 --> 00:04:26 preparing to begin beta testing its

00:04:26 --> 00:04:28 direct to cell technology which will

00:04:29 --> 00:04:30 allow regular mobile phones to connect

00:04:30 --> 00:04:32 directly to starlink satellites for

00:04:32 --> 00:04:35 calls texts and data no special

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37 equipment required this Innovative

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39 system works by equipping starlink

00:04:39 --> 00:04:41 Satellites with specialized modems that

00:04:41 --> 00:04:43 essentially turn them into orbital cell

00:04:43 --> 00:04:45 towers when your phone can't find a

00:04:45 --> 00:04:47 regular cell signal it will be able to

00:04:47 --> 00:04:49 connect directly to these satellites

00:04:49 --> 00:04:52 overhead routing your Communications

00:04:52 --> 00:04:54 through starlinks ground Network and

00:04:54 --> 00:04:56 onto your carrier systems the beta

00:04:56 --> 00:04:58 testing is set to begin on January 27th

00:04:58 --> 00:05:00 working with cular carrier Partners

00:05:00 --> 00:05:02 around the globe during the six-month

00:05:02 --> 00:05:05 test period SpaceX will evaluate how

00:05:05 --> 00:05:07 well the system performs in real world

00:05:07 --> 00:05:09 conditions across different phases of

00:05:09 --> 00:05:12 satellite operations from initial launch

00:05:12 --> 00:05:15 through regular orbital service what

00:05:15 --> 00:05:16 makes this particularly exciting is its

00:05:16 --> 00:05:18 potential to eliminate cellular dead

00:05:18 --> 00:05:21 zones almost anywhere on Earth whether

00:05:21 --> 00:05:23 you're hiking in remote Wilderness

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25 sailing offshore or living in an area

00:05:25 --> 00:05:28 with limited infrastructure you could

00:05:28 --> 00:05:30 still make emergency calls or access

00:05:30 --> 00:05:31 basic Communications as long as you can

00:05:31 --> 00:05:34 see the sky the system is designed to

00:05:34 --> 00:05:37 work with existing phones no need to buy

00:05:37 --> 00:05:39 special satellite Hardware this is a

00:05:39 --> 00:05:41 crucial advantage over traditional

00:05:41 --> 00:05:42 satellite phones which are typically

00:05:42 --> 00:05:45 expensive and bulky by leveraging the

00:05:45 --> 00:05:47 growing starlink constellation which

00:05:47 --> 00:05:50 already includes nearly 7 satellites

00:05:50 --> 00:05:53 SpaceX aims to provide truly Global

00:05:53 --> 00:05:56 cellular coverage if the beta testing

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58 proves successful this technology could

00:05:58 --> 00:06:00 be transformative for for emergency

00:06:00 --> 00:06:03 services and remote Communications it

00:06:03 --> 00:06:05 could quite literally save lives by

00:06:05 --> 00:06:07 allowing people to call for help from

00:06:07 --> 00:06:09 anywhere the implications for Global

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11 connectivity especially in underserved

00:06:11 --> 00:06:14 regions are enormous the test period

00:06:14 --> 00:06:17 runs through July 26th giving SpaceX and

00:06:17 --> 00:06:19 its Partners time to evaluate

00:06:19 --> 00:06:22 performance reliability and coverage

00:06:22 --> 00:06:24 before potentially expanding to full

00:06:24 --> 00:06:26 commercial service this marks another

00:06:26 --> 00:06:28 step in spacex's broader mission to

00:06:28 --> 00:06:31 revolutionize glob M Communications

00:06:31 --> 00:06:33 while generating additional Revenue to

00:06:33 --> 00:06:34 support their ambitious space

00:06:34 --> 00:06:36 exploration

00:06:36 --> 00:06:39 goals meanwhile out in deep space a

00:06:39 --> 00:06:40 remarkable Celestial event is currently

00:06:40 --> 00:06:42 unfolding that could see one of

00:06:42 --> 00:06:43 astronomy's most famous young Stars

00:06:43 --> 00:06:47 gradually fade from view Tori located

00:06:47 --> 00:06:49 471 light years away in the

00:06:49 --> 00:06:51 constellation Taurus is entering what

00:06:51 --> 00:06:54 astronomers are calling a great dimming

00:06:54 --> 00:06:55 that could potentially last for an

00:06:55 --> 00:06:56 entire

00:06:56 --> 00:06:59 Century this fascinating star system

00:06:59 --> 00:07:01 actually consists of three young Stars

00:07:01 --> 00:07:03 still in their infancy while we can

00:07:03 --> 00:07:05 typically only see one member of this

00:07:05 --> 00:07:07 Cosmic Family T Tori North through

00:07:07 --> 00:07:10 optical telescopes its two companion

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12 stars orbit about 100 astronomical units

00:07:12 --> 00:07:15 away hidden within a thick disc of gas

00:07:15 --> 00:07:17 and dust what makes the situation

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19 particularly interesting is that the

00:07:19 --> 00:07:21 orbital dance of these stars is now

00:07:21 --> 00:07:24 bringing that massive dust dis directly

00:07:24 --> 00:07:27 between Earth and Tori North amateur

00:07:27 --> 00:07:29 astronomers have already noticed sign

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31 significant changes with the Stars

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33 brightness dropping dramatically since

00:07:34 --> 00:07:38 2016 by 2022 it had dimmed by about two

00:07:38 --> 00:07:40 magnitudes a change not seen in over a

00:07:40 --> 00:07:43 hundred years but this may be just the

00:07:43 --> 00:07:45 beginning as the dust disc continues its

00:07:45 --> 00:07:48 slow march across our line of sight Tori

00:07:48 --> 00:07:50 North could potentially disappear

00:07:50 --> 00:07:52 entirely from view through conventional

00:07:52 --> 00:07:54 telescopes the same disc that currently

00:07:54 --> 00:07:57 renders its companion stars invisible

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59 invisible light could soon completely

00:07:59 --> 00:08:02 obscure our view of the primary star

00:08:02 --> 00:08:04 however this dimming event presents an

00:08:04 --> 00:08:07 unprecedented opportunity for scientists

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09 as Tori North's light filters through

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12 the disk researchers can analyze how

00:08:12 --> 00:08:14 different wavelengths are absorbed

00:08:14 --> 00:08:16 revealing detailed information about the

00:08:16 --> 00:08:19 disc's composition this is particularly

00:08:19 --> 00:08:20 exciting because we're essentially

00:08:20 --> 00:08:22 getting a chance to study the chemical

00:08:22 --> 00:08:24 makeup of a planetary Nursery the very

00:08:24 --> 00:08:26 environment where new worlds are being

00:08:26 --> 00:08:28 born the region of the disk that will

00:08:28 --> 00:08:31 obscure t T North is comparable to our

00:08:31 --> 00:08:34 solar systems Kyper belt making this a

00:08:34 --> 00:08:36 unique chance to study the outer regions

00:08:36 --> 00:08:37 of a young planetary system in

00:08:37 --> 00:08:40 unprecedented detail it's like having a

00:08:40 --> 00:08:42 front row seat to witness the processes

00:08:42 --> 00:08:44 that likely shaped our own solar system

00:08:44 --> 00:08:46 billions of years

00:08:46 --> 00:08:49 ago a quick update now Boeing's

00:08:49 --> 00:08:50 Financial outlook for their space

00:08:50 --> 00:08:52 division has taken another hit with the

00:08:52 --> 00:08:54 company announcing they expect to record

00:08:54 --> 00:08:57 additional losses of around $400 million

00:08:57 --> 00:09:00 on their cst1 100 Starliner commercial

00:09:00 --> 00:09:03 crew program in the fourth quarter of

00:09:03 --> 00:09:05 2024 this comes on top of significant

00:09:05 --> 00:09:07 charges already taken against the

00:09:07 --> 00:09:08 program in previous

00:09:08 --> 00:09:11 quarters the situation with Starliner

00:09:11 --> 00:09:13 has become increasingly uncertain since

00:09:13 --> 00:09:16 its uncrewed test flight last September

00:09:16 --> 00:09:17 while the spacecraft successfully

00:09:17 --> 00:09:20 returned to Earth NASA made the decision

00:09:20 --> 00:09:22 to keep the mission's designated

00:09:22 --> 00:09:24 astronauts aboard the International

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26 Space Station due to concerns about

00:09:26 --> 00:09:28 Thruster performance during the

00:09:28 --> 00:09:30 spacecraft's journey

00:09:30 --> 00:09:33 in response to these ongoing challenges

00:09:33 --> 00:09:35 NASA has pushed back plans for Starliner

00:09:35 --> 00:09:38 first operational Mission Beyond

00:09:38 --> 00:09:41 2025 the space agency has instead opted

00:09:41 --> 00:09:43 to rely on spacex's crew Dragon

00:09:43 --> 00:09:46 spacecraft for upcoming ISS crew

00:09:46 --> 00:09:48 rotations including both the crew 10

00:09:48 --> 00:09:51 Mission launching this March and crew 11

00:09:51 --> 00:09:53 scheduled for late summer the timing of

00:09:53 --> 00:09:55 starliners next flight remains up in the

00:09:55 --> 00:09:58 air with NASA stating they need to

00:09:58 --> 00:09:59 establish a better understanding of

00:09:59 --> 00:10:01 Boeing's path to system certification

00:10:01 --> 00:10:04 before making any decisions the agency

00:10:04 --> 00:10:06 is keeping various options open for

00:10:06 --> 00:10:09 potential Starliner flights in 2025 but

00:10:09 --> 00:10:11 no specific timeline has been announced

00:10:11 --> 00:10:13 adding to the uncertainty Boeing has

00:10:13 --> 00:10:15 been studying ways to streamline its

00:10:15 --> 00:10:17 business operations potentially

00:10:17 --> 00:10:20 discontinuing work in areas outside its

00:10:20 --> 00:10:22 core commercial Aviation and defense

00:10:22 --> 00:10:25 sectors some industry analysts are even

00:10:25 --> 00:10:26 predicting that Boeing might divest its

00:10:26 --> 00:10:29 space division entirely this year which

00:10:29 --> 00:10:31 could Mark a significant shift in the

00:10:55 --> 00:10:57 subcompact car will create four

00:10:57 --> 00:11:00 comprehensive 3D maps of the entire Sky

00:11:00 --> 00:11:02 helping us better understand the

00:11:02 --> 00:11:04 universe's expansion after the big bang

00:11:04 --> 00:11:06 and search for the building blocks of

00:11:06 --> 00:11:08 life another exciting mission is the

00:11:08 --> 00:11:10 lunar Trailblazer which aims to solve

00:11:10 --> 00:11:13 one of the moon's enduring Mysteries the

00:11:13 --> 00:11:15 presence and distribution of water on

00:11:15 --> 00:11:17 our Celestial neighbor this small

00:11:17 --> 00:11:19 satellite will map lunar surface water

00:11:19 --> 00:11:21 in unprecedented detail helping

00:11:21 --> 00:11:24 determine its abundance location and how

00:11:24 --> 00:11:26 it changes over time the mission is

00:11:27 --> 00:11:29 scheduled to launch in late February

00:11:29 --> 00:11:31 alongside the intuitive machines 2 lunar

00:11:31 --> 00:11:34 delivery the nysar mission a

00:11:34 --> 00:11:35 collaborative effort between NASA and

00:11:35 --> 00:11:38 India's space agency represents a major

00:11:38 --> 00:11:40 advancement in Earth observation

00:11:40 --> 00:11:41 capabilities this sophisticated

00:11:42 --> 00:11:44 spacecraft will carry both l-band and

00:11:44 --> 00:11:46 s-band Radars allowing it to monitor

00:11:46 --> 00:11:48 surface changes related to Natural

00:11:48 --> 00:11:51 phenomena like earthquakes volcanoes and

00:11:51 --> 00:11:55 deforestation with remarkable Precision

00:11:55 --> 00:11:56 looking toward the latter part of the

00:11:56 --> 00:11:59 Year Sentinel 6B will launch in November

00:11:59 --> 00:12:01 to to continue vital sea surface height

00:12:01 --> 00:12:03 measurements working in tandem with its

00:12:03 --> 00:12:05 twin satellite already in orbit it will

00:12:05 --> 00:12:07 extend our Global sea level monitoring

00:12:07 --> 00:12:09 capabilities for another decade

00:12:09 --> 00:12:11 improving climate models and hurricane

00:12:11 --> 00:12:14 tracking JPL is also preparing to

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16 demonstrate new robotic exploration

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18 capabilities with the Cadre project

00:12:18 --> 00:12:20 featuring three suitcase sized Rovers

00:12:21 --> 00:12:22 designed to work autonomously as a team

00:12:23 --> 00:12:25 on the lunar surface this technology

00:12:25 --> 00:12:27 could revolutionize how we conduct

00:12:27 --> 00:12:28 future Planetary Exploration missions

00:12:29 --> 00:12:30 and support astronaut
