Settle the Stars: The Science of Space Exploration

Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C. Clarke embarked on the project of a lifetime: a realistic cinematic speculation of where space exploration  could be at the dawn of the 21st century, with the creation of "2001: A Space Odyssey". Lacey Hannan goes into the details of the film that was ahead of it's time. 

Next Week's topic: "Apollo 13" Directed by Ron Howard

It was not until 2014 that audiences were first shown a realistic visualization of a black hole in a major motion picture. Those visuals came courtesy of the efforts of Christopher Nolan, who sought to bring viewers the most authentically realized sci-fi film he could. Lacey Hannan goes deep into the black holes of "Interstellar".

Alexander Winn introduces our newest host, Lacey Hannan. This season on Settle the Stars, we will be covering the scientific accuracy behind books like “The Martian” and films like “Interstellar”, “Contact”, “Lost in Space” and many more. 

And of course, we will look into answering the question we’ve been asking throughout the entirety of our series… “HOW scientifically plausible is it to succeed in this mission?” “Can we survive a harrowing journey into the depths of space?”

New episode every Friday.

Today’s journey is a refreshingly short one: a mere 238,855 miles from Earth.  In terms of cosmic distance, that’s right on our doorstep, or closer even – right off the tip of our nose. Alexander Winn steers us toward a destination easily spotted with the naked eye.

The importance of our Sun is hard to overstate, not just as an essential foundation for life here on Earth, but as an agent for order and stability in a system of innumerable objects from the massive gas giants down to the smallest mote of dust. Alexander Winn stares directly into the sun, purely for science.

In the last few decades, we have learned that most of these stars are hosts to their own systems of planets, just as the Sun is to our Solar System.  We call these worlds exoplanets, or extrasolar planets. Alexander Winn takes us incredible distances to learn about them.

For almost as long as astronomers have been fascinated by the bright, shining points of light in the sky, they’ve also wondered about the space between them.  After all, smaller objects had been known to fall from the sky for thousands of years, made of metal of otherworldly strength and mysterious magnetic properties.  But where did these objects come from?

Alexander Winn will be getting a closer look at some of the most often-overlooked features of Uranus & Neptune: their moons and rings. While the  planets themselves posed quite a challenge to spot in the night sky, their moons can be much trickier. Luckily, it's a breeze in this scenario.
