The 365 Days Of Astronomy, The Daily Podcast Of The International Year Of Astronomy 2009

Today’s guest:  Dr. Jamie Rankin, Voyager Deputy Project Scientist, talks with us today about all things Interstellar. She is also an Associate Research Scholar and Lecturer in Space Physics at Princeton University. NASA-JPL continues to communicate with both Voyagers 1 and 2 as they explore interstellar space. Closer to home, IBEX and three soon-to-be-launched new spacecraft study the protective bubble of our star system from the inside, while also investigating our star’s ever-changing effect on Earth.   H’ad astra historia is the official podcast for the Historical Astronomy Division of the American Astronomical Society. We’re here to share stories from and about the people who study the stars, planets, and the cosmos. We’ll be hearing from individuals who not only study the history of astronomy, but also those who lived it, who were “in the room” during pivotal events within the last 50 years or so.     Podcaster:  Loretta Cannon (an AAS affiliate via Rose City Astronomers) is a science-and-word-nerd who
