The Dark Ages of the Universe
Manage episode 409088750 series 3560301
We peer back in time both to the murky history of our own solar system and to the dark ages of the universe. The JWST has confirmed that dwarf galaxies were the first to illuminate the universe, putting an end to the dark ages that followed the cooling after the big bang. In our own corner of the universe, new research highlights how nearby stars can lead to dramatic changes in our planet’s climate by affecting the Earth’s orbit. Join us for all this, nerd news, space news, and eclipse trivia.
