The Cosmic Companion VIP Newsletter 20 September, 2021 - Dillon Dong on Finding an Unusual Supernova
An unusual supernova, a not-so-unusual supernova that did something unusual, an unusual crew lifts off into space, and one of the usual suspects hints at something unusual.
Supernova eruptions, gravitational lensing, the first civilian crew reaches space, and the Great-and-Powerful Woz!
This week on Astronomy News with The Cosmic Companion, we welcome Dillon Dong, a graduate student at Caltech to the show. We're going to talk about his work discovering a previously-unseen type of supernova eruption.

Here’s tomorrow’s episode of the show, in an advance showing for our VIP subscribers:
