Have you ever wondered what lies beyond our solar system? Are there other planets like Earth out there? How do we find them and study them? What can they teach us about ourselves and our place in the universe? If you are curious about these questions, then Exoplanet Radio is for you. We will explore the fascinating field of exoplanets, the planets that orbit other stars. We will learn about the history and methods of exoplanet discovery, the diversity and characteristics of exoplanets, the challenges and opportunities of exoplanet science, and the implications and prospects of exoplanet life. Join us on this journey of wonder and discovery, as we venture into the unknown and uncover the secrets of the worlds beyond our solar system.

How Far Are the Closest Exoplanets with Life?

Season 2 · Episode 43

mercredi 11 octobre 2023 • Duration 04:48

To increase our chances of finding life on other planets, a systematic approach needs to be adopted, one that applies reasonable assumptions that maximize our success. So, an important question becomes, where should we point our telescopes? Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/science/closest-exoplanets-with-life/.

How Long Will Life on Earth Last?

Season 2 · Episode 42

lundi 9 octobre 2023 • Duration 04:32

Nothing lasts forever, stars live and die over the course of hundreds of millions to billions, and in the case of red dwarf stars, trillions of years. Planets are born from the remnants of their parent stars and die over a shorter timescale. Life on those planets, if it exists, is presumed to be shorter still, governed entirely by the environments provided by the combination of the star and planetary characteristics. How long life lasts there ultimately depends on how long the star lives and how it dies. Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/science/how-long-life-earth/.

What is the Habitable Worlds Observatory?

Season 2 · Episode 33

vendredi 8 septembre 2023 • Duration 04:00

Finding habitable worlds has been a driving passion since we first learned there were other planets out there, and to find them, we are going to need a dedicated instrument that does nothing else but tries to locate and characterize them. Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/science/habitable-worlds-observatory/.

TESS's Breakthrough Discovery of Long-Period Exoplanets TOI 4600 b and c

Season 2 · Episode 32

jeudi 7 septembre 2023 • Duration 04:40

Human beings have discovered over five thousand five hundred exoplanets. Over 80 percent of them have orbits shorter than 50 days which would place them at over twice as close to their star as Mercury is to the Sun. Some are even closer. Recent observations from TESS however have found one with an orbit of 82 days and another measured in hundreds of days.

Astronomers Confirm Proxima Centauri b is Not a Transiting Exoplanet

Season 2 · Episode 31

mercredi 6 septembre 2023 • Duration 05:00

We know surprisingly little about Proxima Centauri b, but astronomers have just confirmed that it is not a transiting exoplanet. Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/discoveries/proxima-centauri-b-not-transiting-exoplanet/.

The Many Earth-Sized Worlds of TOI-700

Season 1 · Episode 30

mercredi 30 août 2023 • Duration 05:00

Move over TRAPPIST-1, there a new system that is just as exciting. TOI-700 is a system of four rocky, Earth-sized worlds and some might be habitable Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/exoplanets/many-worlds-toi-700/.

Meet TrES-2b: The Planet That Reflects Almost No Light

Season 1 · Episode 29

mardi 29 août 2023 • Duration 04:00

Here is a planet that is so dark that it reflects less than one percent of the sunlight falling on it. How can a planet be so black? What makes it glow like a burning ember? And what kind of weather does it have? Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/exoplanets/tres2b-planet-reflects-no-light/.

How Starshades Can Help Us Find New Worlds

Season 1 · Episode 28

lundi 28 août 2023 • Duration 04:00

Most of the 5000 exoplanets discovered so far have been found using methods that don’t actually see the planet at all. Brightness dimmings and star wobbles only get us so far. They limit our ability to study them in detail and astronomers are working on gigantic starshades to resolve planets directly Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/science/starshades-find-exoplanets/.

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will Revolutionize our Understanding of Exoplanets

Season 1 · Episode 27

vendredi 25 août 2023 • Duration 04:00

The next big milestone in our study of exoplanets is a telescope that can see beyond the limits of our eyes, beyond the boundaries of our solar system, beyond the frontiers of our knowledge. A telescope that can reveal the secrets of the stars and the mysteries of the planets. A telescope that can take us closer to finding another home in the cosmos Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/science/nancy-grace-roman-space-telescope-exoplanets/.

Is TRAPPIST-1 c Habitable? New Webb Telescope Observations Suggest Not

Season 1 · Episode 26

jeudi 24 août 2023 • Duration 04:00

A team of astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope to study the exoplanet TRAPPIST-1 c, which is one of seven rocky planets orbiting an ultracool red dwarf star 40 light-years from Earth. The team found that the planet's atmosphere, if it exists at all, is extremely thin Show Notes Available at https://exoplanetradio.com/discoveries/jwst-trappist1c-no-thick-atmosphere/.
