Observing Aurora

Thanks to another audience request, we’ll start with a video, sent by Sally, which an in depth analysis of recent aurora surges. This is a good resource for going to other sites to stay updated on these crowd favorite events.

Take Two: Help Us Welcome Isaac Arthur!

Take Two:  Help Us Welcome Isaac Arthur!

Family obligations engaged him last week. We invited him back so we’ll get to know him THIS week!

Isaac Arthur is the creator and host of the award-winning series Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur, one of the world’s largest long-form science and futurism channels. His weekly episodes—now numbering over 800—explore everything from space exploration, megastructure engineering, and interstellar travel to AI, post-scarcity economies, and the fate of civilizations across cosmic timescales. With over a million followers across YouTube and other platforms, Isaac has become a leading voice in accessible hard-science futurism, blending rigorous physics with imaginative, optimistic speculation about humanity’s long-term future.

His work delves deeply into how advanced civilizations—human or alien—might behave logistically, socially, and technologically under real scientific principles, covering topics such as near and far term space colonization, Dyson spheres, planetary terraforming, the Fermi Paradox, artificial intelligence, post-biological life, and the far future of the Universe. His episodes are widely used in classrooms, STEM programs, and worldbuilding projects, and he frequently consults with science-fiction authors, game studios, and media producers. Isaac is also a regular guest across radio, podcasts, documentaries, and online programming.

Beyond his role as a science communicator, Isaac serves as President of the National Space Society, advancing public understanding and advocacy for space development. He is also the Chairman of the Ashtabula County Board of Elections, where he brings the same dedication to civic service that he brings to public education.

Isaac graduated top of his class in Physics at age 20. After grad school he served in the United States Army from 2003-2010, including deployment to Iraq and three years stationed in Germany.

He lives on his farm in Ohio with his wife, Sarah Fowler Arthur, who serves Ohio in the House of Representatives as K12 Education Chair, and their three children, Kris, Bella, and Geo, ages 9, 8, and 7 who they homeschool.

Being Thankful!

Happy Thanksgiving to our friends, family and followers in the United States of America. Late November every year, we think about what we are thankful for and sometimes we express that over a feast of massive proportions.

This year may be the same for many of us here the USA. This week we will host a more casual episode and share what we are thankful for. You are welcome to participate – even if you are not in the ‘States.’ Gratitude is always a good activity to practice, wherever you may be in the universe! You don’t have to limit yourself to this one day either. Being Thankful is a fine way to spend your time and energy, any time.

CRUNCHY TOPIC: Expanding Universe

The next episode of our Friday Night Show airs on November 14th at 9pm Pacific time!

CRUNCHY TOPIC:  Expanding Universe

A new study shows that the universe’s expansion may not be accelerating. For the past several years, scientists have seen that, using the light from Cepheid variables (what are called: standard candles), the universe appears to be expanding. They have then added a bunch of fiddly bits to physics to explain why the expansion is accelerating.

A new study shows that the “Standard Candle” may not be so standard. It shows that their luminosity varies but varies predictably. So, they are still useful. We just have to learn how to adjust the measurements they give us.

As with all science, the variability hasn’t been “proven” and we can’t yet know that their luminosity is variable (and of it varies as this study claims) but, if true, it allows us to take a weed whacker to all the bits they had to stick onto the expanding universe to explain the acceleration. It also gives me the chance, in the future, to be able to say: “I told you so.”

PROFILE: Margaret W. Rossiter

The next episode of our Friday Night Show airs on November 14th at 9pm Pacific time!

PROFILE: Margaret W. Rossiter

Margaret W. Rossiter didn’t just study history—she transformed it.

In 1993, she revealed a hidden truth: the Matilda Effect — the systematic erasure of women’s scientific achievements. She named it for suffragist and abolitionist Matilda Joslyn Gage, who had warned the world more than a century earlier.

Rossiter spent decades sifting through archives, letters, and forgotten works, uncovering women who labored without pay, recognition, or even the right to claim their discoveries. Her three-volume Women Scientists in America is more than research — it is reclamation.

Every biography she restored was a quiet revolution, returning women to the center of science where they always belonged. She showed exclusion was never personal failure, but a barrier woven into science itself.

Her work sparked programs ensuring today’s women in STEM receive credit, publication, and remembrance. Honors like the Sarton Medal, a MacArthur Fellowship, and a Guggenheim recognized her, yet the Rossiter History of Women in Science Prize best embodies her mission.

Through decades of dedication, Margaret Rossiter didn’t just restore names. She made sure the world could never claim ignorance again.

Asteroid Image Checker: Help Us Measure How Fast Asteroids Rotate

The next episode of our Friday Night Show airs on November 7th at 9pm Pacific time!

Asteroid Image Checker: Help Us Measure How Fast Asteroids Rotate

“Asteroids are small space rocks that can tell us a lot about how our solar system formed and changed over time. One important way scientists study asteroids is by measuring how fast they spin. This is called their rotational period.

“For example, the rotation period of our planet Earth is about 24 hours, a period we know as a day. By measuring an asteroid’s rotation rate, we can learn more about its shape, surface, and even what it’s made of.

“In this [Citizen Science] project, we need your help to examine images of asteroids taken by telescopes. Your task is to find images where the data might be unclear or incorrect, which helps us precisely determine how fast these asteroids spin.

“Some asteroids spin extremely fast—imagine that a day on these strange worlds lasts only a few minutes or even seconds. This rapid spinning affects how they move through space. One reason for this is the Yarkovsky effect, a small but important force caused by sunlight. You can learn more about it in the research section of this project.

“By joining this project, you’ll help us uncover the secrets of these unusual asteroids and contribute to real scientific discoveries.” ~Zooniverse

“Asteroids spinning in just seconds or minutes challenge our understanding—their rapid rotations should tear apart the fragile structures needed to explain their unusual behavior.” ~Words from the Researcher
