Space Nuts Q&A: Measuring Movement, Sun's Fuel, Mars Hypotheticals, and WormholesJoin Andrew Dunkley and Professor Fred Watson in this lively Q&A episode of Space Nuts, where they tackle listener questions on a range of fascinating topics in SpaceTime science.Episode Highlights:Measuring Movement in the Universe: JR from Ohio asks if everything in the universe moves and how we can measure that. Fred Watson Watson delves into the cosmic web, dark matter, and the fundamental principles of gravity and motion.- The Sun's Fuel: Rod from Bloomington, Illinois, questions how the Sun can burn 600 million tonnes of hydrogen every second without dimming or shrinking. Fred Watson Watson explains the process of nuclear fusion and the balance between gravity and radiation pressure.- Mars Hypothetical: Mick from Dublin wonders what would happen if Mars were suddenly removed from the solar system. Andrew and Fred Watson discuss the potential gravitational impacts on Earth and the Moon, and the broader effects on the solar system's structure.- Wormholes and Gravity: Gergo from Slovakia asks a hypothetical question about the gravitational pull near a wormhole and a black hole. Fred Watson Watson explores the theoretical implications and the stability of wormholes in extreme gravitational fields.Don't forget to send us your questions for our Q&A episodes via our website... spacenuts.ioSupport Space Nuts and join us on this interstellar journey by visiting our website support page.
