Space Nuts - A podcast by Professor Fred Watson and Andrew Dunkley

Hi there. Thanks for joining us on another episode of Space Nuts. Andrew Dunkley here and it's good to have your company. Coming up on this episode we're going to be looking at snowball Earth. There was a time where it was just a frozen sphere of nothingness for, well, billions of years. Now they have a new theory about that and it's no Irish joke. There's a clue in there. The dinosaur asteroid's origin has been revealed. Yep. The thing that started the getting rid of them all across the planet. We know where it came from. And the so-called crisis in cosmology might not be a crisis at all. We're talking about the Hubble tension. We'll talk about all of that on this episode of Space Nuts.ChaptersSnowball Earth: Discover the new theory about Earth's frozen past and the rocks in Scotland and Australia that provide clues.- Dinosaur Asteroid's Origin: Learn about the new study revealing the origin of the asteroid that led to the extinction of the dinosaurs.- Crisis in Cosmology: Delve into the Hubble tension and why it might not be a crisis after all.- Chinese High-Speed Engine: Explore the claims of a new Chinese engine that could revolutionise air travel with speeds up to 19,700 km/h.For more Space Nuts, including our continually updating newsfeed, visit our website at spacenutspodcast.com.
