It's been nearly a year since @NASAWebb arrived at its destination 1 million miles away. It completed the most complex deployment ever attempted in space, and returned the deepest infrared image ever seen. Have questions? Tag them #UnfoldTheUniverse. nitter.cf/i/spaces/1OyKAVveDNnGb
Ep:100 is here! So Whad'd I Miss? A Year of JWST? Can't be that much to talk anbout??!! Oh right this may be the first of many catching up on the Just Wonderful things going on in space. It's good to be back! syzygy.fm/podcast/episode100

There once was an astronomer named Emily,
Who took a break for her baby so silly,
But back to the stars she did race,
With a smile on her face,
And now podcasts are back Yipilly!
Syzygy recording today! I promise new eps will be better than my rhymes (assisted by AI).
Hey hey, it’s pod day. In this week’s episode, there’s a whole new nova to explore — not the super one, or the hyper one, but a cute little micro-nova! Plus a lesson on scientific analogies. Get at it: syzygy.fm/podcast/episode98
Now this, this is wild. A solar eclipse, in HD, from the surface of Mars.
Goosebumps.
And … it’s a SYZYGY!

In ep 92 we look at the first infant stars in the universe – big, rowdy and short-lived, formed just hundreds of millions of years after the Big Bang. All the details at syzygy.fm/podcast/episode92
And most recently, episode 94 — we return to baby stars, but this time in the modern era: there are stars being born *right now*, and we can see them (though it’s not always easy). syzygy.fm/podcast/episode94
Then we wondered, if you’ve got the first stars, when did the first baby galaxies happen? Before the stars? With the stars? After the stars? Ep 93 goes deep: syzygy.fm/podcast/episode93
New episode alert (ah-roogha!) 91: Baby Universe — get at it now: syzygy.fm/podcast/episode91
It’s been a while … we know, we know. But hey, there’s a new episode up, number 91. And we have news! Get up to date at syzygy.fm/podcast/episode91 or on your pod player of choice.
Need something warm, merry and bright for the holidays? How about another syzygy episode about touching the Sun- which is warmer than you might think! Episode 90 up now! syzygy.fm/podcast/episode90
Galaxies munching galaxies munching galaxies munching … It’s like Russian nesting dolls in here. Emily explains Galactic Cannibalism, and takes a look at an interesting globular cluster in the LMC — all in the latest ep: syzygy.fm/podcast/episode88
What could possibly be more exciting than seeing a star explode in a nearby galaxy? Well being able to see what it was doing before it went boom of course! Episode 87 explores what we can learn from a lucky chance sighting of a Supernova progenitor.

Sibling pod ep alert: Woot Woot Woot!
Hey hey! Another episode, and this time James talks about failure: his specifically, and scientists’ in general. But, in a good way! Plus, he brought a little treat for our first in-person recording. kipstewart.com/sciencepossib…
