The Oz Network - TV & Film RecapsSolo: A Star Wars Story Recap - The Oz Network MoviesYou've survived the prequels and found out how awesome they are so now it's time to get into the 'story' Star Wars movies by looking closer at the most recent of all the films, Solo: A Star Wars Story. Is this movie criminally underrated? Was this movie even necessary? Should it have killed off all the other 'story' movies that Disney had planned? Has our opinion changed on Alden Ehrenreich at all? Can Ben actually say Alden Ehrenerich's name properly for once? Why does this movie not escape it's production criticism unlike Rogue One? Is 'moof milker' too racist to...

Goldilocks planets potentially with liquid water. Exoplanet hunting is now a lot easier with missions like TESS and veterans like Hubble. We look at some special cases, and how searching for 1 planet can uncover loads more. Sometimes planets are lurking in old observatory data, we just need to know where to look. Too hot, too cold, GJ357 potentially has a planet that's just right with liquid water. What causes a White Dwarf to go supernova? It needs more than itself to kickstart it into a Type 1a...
