In the ground below our feet, geological underworlds offer a space to consider a shared planetary consciousness: the sentient and non-sentient organic and mineral the living, dead and those of the future. Infinite in time and space, the recycling and resurfacing matter of our planet creates sentient beings time and again. – Cosmology of the Spirit, Evald Ilyenkov Matter, with a necessity inherent in its nature, constantly engenders thinking creatures thought is an intrinsic property of matter. Super/science episode 12: dialogues with the substrata besides academic research, Maggie is an avid science communicator who has previously spoken at our events and runs the science YouTube channel Space Mog. her main research interest is in clusters of galaxies and their role in helping us understand the Universe and the nature of dark matter. prior to this, she worked at the European Space Agency in Madrid on the Euclid mission, a space telescope that is due to launch in 2022. when so much is at risk, how can scientists ensure that we are safe from a similar fate as the dinosaurs?ĭr Maggie Lieu is a research fellow in Machine Learning and Cosmology at the University of Nottingham where she lectures the Machine Learning in Science MSc program. often, they won't know for sure where an asteroid will hit or how big an impact it will make until a few days before the collision. Scientists are actively searching for new, and tracking known asteroids. as of April 2021, there are over 25,000 near-Earth objects and many of these are a potential risk to life here on Earth, but in the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, there is believed to be over 2 million asteroids, some of which can reach 1000km in size! It's believed that an asteroid 10km in size wiped out the dinosaurs. Super/science episode 13: finding asteroids in July of that year, she joined the University of Auckland as a Research Fellow to research the evolution of massive stars to better understand how they die and produce Supernovae and Kilonovae she subsequently started a PhD studying the 3D shape of Core Collapse Supernovae, and earned her title in Spring 2019. after working as a support astronomer at the Isaac Newton Group in La Palma for a year, she obtained her Masters of Physics in 2015. Originally born and raised in France, Heloise moved to the UK to study Physics and Astronomy at the University of Sheffield.

in order to understand the stars that resulted in this violent encounter, we need to understand the stars that lived nearby, and in this talk, Dr Heloise Stevance will talk about how we can use state of the art simulation and data analysis codes to infer the full story, from the birth to death of these exotic explosions
In 2017, humanity observed the merger of two neutrons stars for the first time. Super/science episode 14: neighbours of a neutron star merger Her latest books are The Living World: Nan Shepherd and Environmental Thought (2020) and Everybody Needs Beauty: In Search of the Nature Cure (2021) In this talk, I'll explore Shepherd 's temporal and planetary imagination - from the marks mountain industries were leaving on the Cairngorms, to the attempt to imagine the earth and cosmos as one integrated, living whole.ĭr Samantha Walton is Reader in Modern Literature at Bath Spa University, where her research focuses on links between nature and mental health, and the environmental humanities. But she was also writing on the cusp of a new age: one in which human activity would leave traces on this seemingly eternal landscape and begin to disrupt wider global natural systems, from the hydrological system to the carbon cycle. Her geological imagination was shaped by scientific discoveries into the deep age of the earth and the forces that shaped mountains, carved valleys and brought living species into being. When Nan Shepherd wrote The Living Mountain, she was poised between two moments in earth and human history.
