NASA's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft and its unprecedented mission to asteroid Bennu Jan 23, 2024

Show notes

Our story begins with NASA's OSIRIS-REx spacecraft and its unprecedented mission to asteroid Bennu. This asteroid, roughly the size of the Empire State Building, presented a starkly different reality than what scientists had anticipated. Early predictions suggested a surface covered in small pebbles, but the reality was a landscape of boulders, challenging previous assumptions about such celestial bodies.

Mars Express' Remarkable Discovery Jan 22, 2024

Show notes

The European Space Agency's Mars Express orbiter has potentially identified enormous ice water deposits beneath the Martian surface. Located at the Red Planet's equator, these deposits are estimated to be about 3.7 kilometers thick. If melted, they could cover Mars with a water layer approximately two meters deep or fill Earth's Red Sea. This revelation is reshaping our perception of Mars, suggesting a past where glaciers, lakes, and river channels were prevalent.
