122: Syzygy Live! — The Power of Seeing It For Yourself

  • Summary

  • Live from York's Festival of Ideas*, in front of an audience of ... what, had to be a few hundred thousand people, right? ... Emily and Chris discuss some awesome astronomy that you can go outside and see with your own eyes. In particular, they go deep on the incredible May 2024 aurora, and show what the 2024 total eclipse across the USA looked like, with a preview of amazing eclipses to look forward to in the coming years. Chris finishes with a song, as he does. Watch on YouTube!

    (* Apologies for the audio quality, it was a big echo-ey space and it didn’t record as well as I’d hoped)
