Talking about meteorites with Geoff Notkin of Meteorite Men, the future of space stations, and more!
Rocks from space! Space stations! And rocks IN space! This episode ROCKS!
This week on Astronomy News with The Cosmic Companion, we welcome Geoff Notkin to the show. He is the two-time Emmy Awarding winning host of STEM Journals, and he hosted Meteorite Men on the Science Channel.
But first, we discuss the future of space stations as the ISS nears the end of its operational life. We also find that supermassive black holes wandering through space may be more common than we thought, and we hear about the discovery of an asteroid by someone who is very familiar to fans of Star Trek.
