Description

A jolly romp around viruses and tasers!

We look back at the astronomy and space exploration highlights of 2020:

• Phosphine in Venus atmosphere
• The saga of SpaceX
• Chang'e 5 at the Moon
• Comets Atlas & Neowise
• 3 missions to Mars

The lows of 2020 in astronomy and space exploration:

• Cancellation of SPICA
• The loss of the Arecibo radio telescope

We look forward to the anticipated events of 2021:

• Luna 25, Chandrayaan-3 & Artemis 1 to the Moon
• 3 Mars arrivals
• Vera C Rubin telescope & Maybe JWST

And we run through our own predictions for next year before signing off with our customary end-of-year outtakes.
