Milky Way Live Lecture

from Pale Blue Pod

Dr. Moiya's Milky Way book is three years old! She celebrated with a public lecture where she talked about milky way myths, galaxy formation, stellar chemistry, black holes, and the galaxy's courtship of nearby Andromeda. Thanks to Lectures on Tap for hosting! Correction: The Milky Way is moving at about 200,000 miles per hour, not per second. Oops! Messages Watch and follow THAT'S A LOT, please!

Website: evanjohnstonmusic.com About Us Pale Blue Pod is an astronomy podcast for people who are overwhelmed by the universe but want to be its friend. Astrophysicist Dr. Moiya McTier and comedian Corinne Caputo demystify space one topic at a time with open eyes, open arms, and open mouths (from so much laughing and jaw-dropping). By the end of each episode, the cosmos will feel a little less “ahhh too scary” and a lot more “ohhh, so cool!” New episodes every Monday. Pale Blue Pod is a member of the Multitude Collective.
