There are 345 episodes in the Space topic.

These are the latest episodes from the Space topic added to soundcarrot, but be careful, many of these are serialised shows so jumping in at episode 10, for example, could confuse matters.

We'd recommend starting with the first episode of your show of choice, and if you like it, listening from there.

The Mind-Bending Math Inside Black Holes
^{00:25:58 | Season: 8 | Episode: 4 | December 17th, 2024}

Black holes are mysterious, far away, and can bend the fabric of reality itself—but we’re learning more about them all the time. Ronald Gamble, a NASA theoretical astrophysicist, uses math, computer coding, and a dash of creativity to peer inside some of the universe’s most extreme objects. We’ll explore what it would feel like to get pulled into a black hole and what people get wrong about black holes. And we’ll answer questions from curious listeners, including, “What would happen if a black hole ate nothing but magnetized material?”

How Open Science and AI Are Advancing Hurricane Research
^{00:32:21 | Season: 8 | Episode: 3 | November 12th, 2024}

As climate change drives more frequent and intense tropical cyclones and hurricanes, coastal communities desperately need better tools to predict how bad storms will be and when and where they’ll strike—and to assess the damage afterward. From the air and in space, NASA and NOAA collect critical data as storms roll in. But what happens next? Fly directly into the eye of the storm with daring hurricane hunter pilots, meet meteorologists and data scientists building AI models to improve hurricane prediction, and join the disaster response experts helping cities pinpoint their hardest-hit neighborhoods. Plus, learn how NASA is making data open to everyone—including you, with Transform to Open Science.

Europa Clipper’s Voyage to Jupiter’s Ocean Moon
^{00:36:08 | Season: 8 | Episode: 2 | October 1st, 2024}

As NASA’s Europa Clipper spacecraft leaves Earth, it carries a message: we, too, are made of water. Europa—one of Jupiter’s moons—is a top candidate to support life, thanks to its ocean of liquid, salty water capped by a layer of ice. Lynnae Quick-Henderson, a planetary scientist at NASA, explains how Clipper will search Europa for the building blocks of life. The mission is also a message in a bottle, bringing a greeting from one ocean world to another. Hear how Ada Limón, the Poet Laureate of the United States, used NASA’s mission as inspiration for her poem “In Praise of Mystery: A Poem for Europa” and why she thinks everyone—even space nerds—should step back and appreciate our connections to the universe and each other.

An Asteroid by Any Other Name With Special Guest Latif Nasser
^{00:39:08 | Season: 8 | Episode: 1 | September 17th, 2024}

The idea of an asteroid from outer space crashing into Earth has captured the imaginations of science fiction directors for decades. But here at NASA, we take potentially hazardous near-Earth objects seriously. We have a planetary defense office that plans for every scenario—we’ve even practiced nudging an asteroid off course with spacecraft. But there are tens of thousands of objects in near-Earth space, and the first step in protecting against potential impacts is spotting, tracking and managing every single one of them. Learn how NASA does just that from Joe Masiero, a scientist on the asteroid survey mission NEOWISE. Then, join friend of the show Latif Nasser, co-host of the podcast Radiolab, to untangle the mystery of a strange space rock that’s not quite a moon but not quite a normal asteroid, either.

Sun Series: Bonus: Dispatches from the Path of Totality
^{00:35:42 | Season: 7 | Episode: 8 | May 3rd, 2024}

On April 8, 2024, North America experienced its last total solar eclipse until the 2040s. As the Moon’s shadow fell across the U.S., NASA sent Curious Universe producers out into the field across the path of totality to talk to space nerds and eclipse scientists. In this special bonus episode of our Sun Series, we’ll relive the special day together.

Sun Series: Soaring Toward the Sun
^{00:35:50 | Season: 7 | Episode: 7 | April 23rd, 2024}

For the first time, a NASA spacecraft is flying through the Sun’s atmosphere. Nour Raouafi, project scientist for Parker Solar Probe, explains why the Sun’s corona is the source of one of the biggest mysteries in all of space science. So, what does it take to build a probe that can touch the Sun—including surviving temperatures of 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit and barreling through sudden eruptions of solar plasma—and live to tell the tale? We’ll also go inside the fleet of NASA spacecraft studying the Sun from many angles, including the rescue mission to save a wildly spinning observatory before it became lost in space forever.

REACH Earth Day Special: What is Climate Change?
^{00:09:07 | April 22nd, 2024}

Sun Series: What is Space Weather?
^{00:34:30 | Season: 7 | Episode: 6 | April 16th, 2024}

From Earth, the Sun can seem steady and predictable. But when you look at our star close up, there’s a lot going on. Go behind the scenes with NASA’s Moon to Mars Space Weather Analysis Office, a team monitoring space weather—eruptions of radiation and plasma from the Sun that can wreak havoc on spacecraft and pose dangers to astronauts. We’ll also revisit the most powerful geomagnetic storm on record, an 1859 event that produced northern lights visible in the tropics and made electrical systems go haywire. This is episode fiof the Sun and Eclipse series from NASA’s Curious Universe, an official NASA podcast.
