April 23rd Radio Show online - "The Sun"
The April 23rd edition of this show is now online and available here. This show kicked out a "Tour of the Universe" series of sort. During the recently completed series on research at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, there were lots of Astronomical news and results which I didn't have time to talk about, so last week, this week, and upcoming weeks will be devoted to filling you in on the lasting discoveries. I've decided to no do this chronologically but by "distance", start with the Sun, ...

Interview with Dr. Ann Hornscemeier now online
Available here is the interview I did with Dr. Ann Hornschemeier of Goddard Space Flight Center, who is Deputy Project Scientist of Constellation-X, the leading candidate for NASA's next generation X-ray satellite, the successor to the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Dr. Hornschemeier was kind enough to talk to about the science goals of Constellation-X, how it is being designed to achieve them, and the technology required to do this. I, personally, am very excited about this mission and, for more i...

Interview with Dr. Dave Thompson now online
My interview with Dr. Dave Thompson, multi-wavelength coordinator of the upcoming Gamma-ray Large Area Space Telescope (GLAST) is now online and available here. As he discusses, multi-wavelength observations are going to be critical in understanding the physical properties of the different types of gamma-ray sources (discussed here), as well as vital in determining the nature of unidentified gamma-ray sources, which GLAST will almost surely discover many (discussed in some more detail here).As ...
