Light Pollution

In this episode of Cosmic Brew, we explore light pollution—what it is, how it impacts astronomy, wildlife, and human health, and what we can do about it. From confused moths and off-course birds to sea turtle hatchlings lured away from the ocean and disrupted human sleep cycles, the effects of artificial lightingstretch far beyond the night sky. But the good news? With smarter lighting choices, we can protect ecosystems, our health, and the stars above. Want to know more?

aflevering Euclid Mission - Astronomers need your help! artwork

Euclid Mission - Astronomers need your help!

The Euclid mission is opening an extraordinary new window on the Universe by delivering images of more than 10 million galaxies, allowing scientists to study how cosmic structure has evolved over the last 10 billion years. By mapping galaxies across time, Euclid helps us probe the mysterious 95% of the Universe made up of dark matter and dark energy, the unseen forces shaping how galaxies form and how the Universe expands. What makes this effort especially exciting is that anyone can take part: through the Galaxy Zoo project, people around theworld can help classify galaxies and directly contribute to cutting-edge cosmology, turning curiosity into real scientific discovery. The European Space Agency’s official Euclid page explains the mission’s goals, instruments, timeline, and how it will map the dark Universe. https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Euclid [https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Space_Science/Euclid]   This site dives deeper into the scientific questions behind Euclid, including dark matter, dark energy, and the large-scale structure of the cosmos. https://sci.esa.int/web/euclid [https://sci.esa.int/web/euclid]   Galaxy Zoo lets anyone help scientists classify real galaxies from missions like Euclid, turning clicks and curiosity into genuine astronomical research. https://www.zooniverse.org/projects/zookeeper/galaxy-zoo [https://www.zooniverse.org/projects/zookeeper/galaxy-zoo]

aflevering The Vera Rubin Observatory artwork

The Vera Rubin Observatory

The Vera Rubin Observatory has begun operations in Chile, aiming to photograph the entire southern sky every four days with an ultra-powerful telescope and a 3,200-megapixel camera. Named after pioneering astronomer Vera Rubin, the observatory will help track asteroids, monitor changing celestial objects, and discover billions of galaxies — offering new clues about the universe’s structure, dark matter, and our cosmic origins.   Want to know more about the Vera Rubin Observatory? https://www.lsst.org [https://www.lsst.org/]   Technical paper from 1979 showing Vera Rubin and collaborators results about rotational curves in spiral galaxies and its consequences https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1978ApJ...225L.107R/abstract [https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/1978ApJ...225L.107R/abstract]
