We Own This TownDark Matter Matters to KeShawn Ivory
KeShawn Ivory, an astrophysicist who specializes in dark matter and a fellow introvert, stops by. The trio examine ideas about the galaxy, Black representation in astronomy, and other stellar possibilities. What does it mean for an astronomer to believe in the Universe? What’s the best way to keep a wig on in space? KeShawn sticks around for a special Space Edition of the game.

Busy Being BlackDr Chanda Prescod-Weinstein – The Disordered CosmosCan we look at the stars queerly? And if so, how might queer star-gazing help orient us towards earthly liberation? To help me answer these questions is Dr Chanda Prescod-Weinstein – a theoretical cosmologist and particle physicist. Her book, The Disordered Cosmos, presents a Black queer feminist challenge to the dominant understanding of physics and calls for a more robust and intersectional approach to ensuring the sciences and the night sky are available to all. Three lessons in particular stand out to me from this conversation: The first is that science is queer. If we understand queerness as a re...

Using the North Star, with no formal training, Harriet Tubman led hundreds of enslaved people to freedom. Chanda is a night sky expert, too. She’s studying the intersections of astrophysics, particle physics, and cosmology, and she’s a leading thinker in understanding dark matter—the invisible particles some postulate could account for most of the matter in the universe. In this episode, Chanda shares how she uses science and the stars not just to uncover how amazing our universe is, but to understand and ce...

Unexpected ElementsTonga eruption – how it happenedThe effects of the Tonga eruption could be felt around the world, many heard the boom of a sonic shock, and tsunami waves travelled far and wide. Volcanologist Shane Cronin from the University of Auckland in New Zealand is one of only a handful of people to have landed on the tiny islands above the volcano where the eruption took place. Those islands have now sunk beneath the waves but Shane tells us what he found when he went there and how his findings could inform what happens next.Stephan Grilli from the School of Ocean Engineering...

But they still don’t know what it is. So how can we be sure dark matter really exists? And why does it matter, anyway?
Back in 2018, armed with a boiler suit, hard hat and ear defenders, Marnie Chesterton travelled over a kilometre underground into a hot and sweaty mine to see how scientists are valiantly trying to catch some elusive particles – in the hope of settling things...
