North Korea Launches Spy Satellite | S02E58

Blast back to the 1970s with Steve and Halle on this anniversary edition of Astronomy Daily! The hosts fondly remember seeing the animated sci-fi classic Fantastic Planet paired with the Pink Floyd surf film Crystal Voyager one fateful summer night. From this nostalgic launch pad, the episode tours current events like Hubble's ongoing gyroscope drama, the potential link between fast radio bursts and hypernebulas, SpaceX's routine Starlink mission, and the European Space Agency's announcement that the long-delayed Ariane 6 finally has a launch date. It's a fun mix of retro sci-fi memories and cutting-edge space news.
