I said "kilometers per second" when I meant "meters per second." So, the debris is moving at tens to hundreds of meters per second.

Well DART was a sample return mission! It will be hard to scoop the meteors but it still counts...

[SuperYtc]

The "Wow! Signal Solved" is like the boy who cried wolf. So many people (not Fraser) have click-baited this for decades. But this is the first time it actually has some real truth to it.

[glauberglousger]

Arecibo may be gone, but the data it gives us is still, and always will be, invaluable

[davidmurphy]

Hats off for adding chapters. Appreciated.

[ARWest-bpyb]

The PLATO interview was fascinating, can't wait for it to launch!🚀👍👍

[MCsCreations]

Thanks for all the news, Fraser! 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

13:14 JUICE actually lost 4.8km/s during the earth flyby, it didn't gain speed. It will gain energy on all the upcoming flybys though.

[Mentaculus]

9:31 “Imploded”, very similar to an incident that a competitor did on one of their early rockets.

0:52 Minor erratum: I'm assuming you meant to say tens of meters per second, not kilometers per second. 500 km/s is a small fraction of light speed and is definitely too fast.

[sadderwhiskeymann]

Nice!!
Thank you for reporting such exciting stuff ❤

[MultiSteveB]

The WOW signal, explained:

[Alien Marko Ramius] "One ping only."

[tsmspace]

it seems like the REAL question is not can we make beautiful meteor showers, but can we hit asteroids and send ourselves little bits of valuable metals

[xphk]

Thanks for re-calibrating my space bubble <3

[VoiceOverEngineer]

The color saturation fades didn't go unnoticed. Kept it interesting. TY

[sotony]

Would it be ironic if a mission designed to explore whether an asteroid can be deflected from its path should deflect a substantial chunk of an asteroid into the path of the Earth?
🤨

[bluesteel]

The Blue Origin issues were for their second and third rockets, not the one to launch the Mars missions. Still not good, but shouldn't impact that mission.

[irri]

Blue Origin not only exsploded but imploded . 😱 Doctor Who comedy relief reference. 🤣👍🏼

[topazmoon]

Supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy sounds like a bouncer sometimes, just chucking stars out of the party!

[AdRock]

JPL has approved Europa Clipper to proceed despite risk of radiation leakage due to the wrong hardware having been installed. Launch is back on for Oct.
