Blood Moon, Broken Records & the Hubble Mystery

The Blood Moon has come and gone — and what a show it was. In today's Astronomy Daily, Anna and Avery recap last night's total lunar eclipse, the last visible from North America until New Year's Eve 2028. Plus: NASA confirms Artemis 2 repairs are complete and an April crewed Moon mission is back on track. Astronomers have found the most tightly packed quadruple star system ever discovered — four stars crammed into a space no bigger than Jupiter's orbit. Gravitational waves could be about to solve one of cosmology's biggest mysteries: the Hubble Tension. The world's first private commercial space telescope has captured its first star. And finally — why do physicists say interstellar travel is impossible and aliens definitely haven't visited?   In This Episode •       00:00 — Cold Open & Show Introduction •       02:00 — Story 1: Blood Moon Total Lunar Eclipse Recap •       06:00 — Story 2: Artemis 2 Repairs Complete, April Launch on Track •       09:00 — Story 3: Record-Breaking Quadruple Star System TIC 120362137 •       12:30 — Story 4: Gravitational Waves and the Hubble Tension •       15:30 — Story 5: Mauve — World's First Private Space Telescope •       18:30 — Story 6: Why Interstellar Travel Is Impossible •       22:00 — Show Close   Find Us •       Website: astronomydaily.io •       Social: @AstroDailyPod •       Network: Bitesz.com Podcast Network
