Today we look back at the year in space. My special guests are space archaeologist Dr Alice Gorman aka Dr Space Junk from Flinders University, and astrophysicist and founder of SpaceAustralia.com Rami Mandow.
In this episode we talk about the annoying name given to Australia's first moon rover, why Jupiter is both friend and foe, India's Chandrayaan-3 mission to the Moon, NASA's OSIRIS-REx mission to the asteroid Bennu, some huge news about gravitational waves, and of course an all-time favourite, black holes.
We even ask whether going into space was a good idea. Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn’t.
