Episode description
This episode covers several topics.
First, we discuss the eerie sounds that were recorded from a black hole. This sonification, or what may be referred to as a translation of astronomical data into sound, is being released for NASA’s Black Hole Week this year. We also mention the new moon mission being launched August 29, 2022, as it is currently scheduled.
Have you heard of Quiet Quitting? It is a new term buzzing around social media. We cover what it is and some of the principles behind what is driving it.
Lastly, the latest person to be cancelled is Andrew Tate. We cover some of the aspects of cancel culture and why it is a threat to free speech and the sharing of ideas.
