May 2009 Extra: A big week in space

This jam-packed show comes at the end of a jam-packed week of major events in astronomy. We have more interviews recorded at JENAM including what's next for the International Year of Astronomy [02:11-10:43], future instruments at the European Southern Observatory [10:43-15:13], gamma ray bursts [15:14-24:06] and cosmic rays [24:07-35:36]. We get the low-down on ESA's Planck and Herschel spacecraft [36:02-57:32]. As always we put your questions to Dr Tim O'Brien [60:14-72:13] and round-up the feedback we've received since the last show.
