This is SpaceTime series 26 episode, 100 and five for
00:00:03
broadcast on the first of September 2023 coming up on
00:00:07
Space time discovery of a massive Brown dwarf inner Space
00:00:12
set to launch into orbit from Australia's Northern Territory.
00:00:16
And Australia's defense force moves forward with a major
00:00:19
purchase of Tomahawk cruise missiles. All that and more
00:00:23
coming up on Space time.
00:00:27
Welcome to Space time with Stuart Garry.
00:00:46
Astronomers have discovered a giant new Brown dwarf some 80
00:00:50
times the mass of Jupiter. The find reported on the pre press
00:00:54
physics website, archive dot org is located in a binary system
00:00:59
445 light years away. Brown dwarfs are failed stars objects
00:01:04
which don't have enough mass to sustain the core hydrogen fusion
00:01:08
process that makes other stars shine.
00:01:11
However, Brown dwarfs do fuse deuterium, a heavy form of
00:01:15
hydrogen which includes a neutron as well as the core
00:01:17
proton in the nucleus and Brown dwarfs, more than 65 Jovian
00:01:22
masses such as this one can also fuse lithium at 80 Jovian
00:01:27
masses. This newly discovered Brown dwarf is right on the
00:01:30
stellar subs stellar boundary only just below the hydrogen
00:01:34
burning limit.
00:01:35
The object's effective surface temperature is estimated to be
00:01:38
1691 Kelvin. While some Brown dwarves start their lives as
00:01:44
Brown dwarves, others actually start their lives as spectral
00:01:47
type M red dwarf stars. But as they burn through their nuclear
00:01:52
fuel supplies, they lose enough mass during the revolution to
00:01:55
cease core fusion. Turning them from red dwarves into Brown
00:01:59
dwarves.
00:02:00
Brown dwarfs fit into a category between the largest planets
00:02:03
which have about 13 times the mass of Jupiter and the smallest
00:02:07
spectra type M red dwarf stars, which are usually around 75 to
00:02:11
80 times the mass of Jupiter or 0.08 solar masses. This
00:02:16
discovery designated as ZDF J 2020 plus 50 33 was made by the
00:02:22
Z Vicky Transient Facility.
00:02:24
Xvii scans the night skies looking for transient
00:02:27
astronomical objects. The Brown dwarf was discovered in a binary
00:02:32
orbit with a low mass spectral type M red dwarf star. It is an
00:02:36
orbital period of just 1.9 hours making it the shortest period
00:02:40
known transiting Brown dwarf ever detected. The primary star
00:02:44
in the system has a radius of 0.1 76 solar radii and a mass of
00:02:50
about 0 solar masses.
00:02:53
The star has an effective surface temperature of 2856.
00:02:58
Kelvin making it a fairly typical red dwarf star. This is
00:03:03
Space time still to come inner Space set to launch into orbit
00:03:08
from Australia's Northern Territory and Australia Moves
00:03:11
Forward with plans to purchase Tomahawk cruise missiles all
00:03:15
that and more still to come on Space time.
00:03:34
South Korean rocket launch company inner Space is set to
00:03:37
become the first long term tenet based at Equatoria launch
00:03:41
Australia's Space port in the Northern Territory's Arnhem
00:03:44
Land. The deal will see a variety of orbit launch vehicles
00:03:47
carrying payloads ranging from 50 to 500 kg flowed into low
00:03:52
Earth orbit from the Arnhem Space Center starting in early
00:03:55
2025.
00:03:57
The decision to proceed follows the successful launch of three
00:04:00
NASA Sami rockets from the Gove Peninsula Complex last year,
00:04:04
over 70 NASA staff traveled down under from the Wallops flight
00:04:08
facility on the Virginian mid Atlantic coast to work on the
00:04:11
project which saw a series of scientific payloads launched on
00:04:15
suborbital ballistic trajectories, innerspace and
00:04:18
equatorial launch will now work with the Australian Space Agency
00:04:21
to obtain a launch permit from the Department Of Civil
00:04:24
Aviation.
00:04:25
Australia's version of America's FAA. The news comes in the wake
00:04:30
of a separate deal for a dedicated launch site between
00:04:33
equatorial launch and the American Space Transportation
00:04:35
And Rocket Manufacturing company Phantom Space Corporation that
00:04:40
also follows in the wake of the NASA launches last year which
00:04:43
were the first from a commercial spaceport outside the United
00:04:46
States.
00:04:47
Until now, the Australian Defense Force's Woomer rocket
00:04:50
range in Outback, South Australia was the nation's only
00:04:53
true Space launch complex.
00:04:56
In fact, back during the 19 sixties, during the heyday of
00:04:59
the Space race, Woomera was the second busiest Space port in the
00:05:02
world eclipsed only by Cape Canaveral. Meanwhile on the
00:05:06
other side of the Australian continent, Southern launchers
00:05:09
received approval to continue work on its new rocket test
00:05:12
range at Kimba West of Cina in South Australia.
00:05:16
Kimba will complement Southern Launch's planned orbit launch
00:05:19
complex at Whalers Way south of Port Lincoln. When fully
00:05:23
operational KBA will be one of the largest commercial rocket
00:05:26
testing facilities in the world allowing suborbital missions to
00:05:30
conduct experiments and validate Space technology.
00:05:33
Although things haven't gone all that smoothly of late Southern
00:05:36
Launch says it does have a number of missions set to launch
00:05:39
from the range over the next few years including several flights
00:05:42
this year and the German Space Agency's reflex mission in 2024.
00:05:47
The range will also be used for the reentry of spacecraft which
00:05:50
up until now were forced to use the Woomera rocket range. In
00:05:54
fact, British based Space Forge is planning to use the kit test
00:05:57
range as a reentry point for their new spacecraft.
00:06:01
This Space time still to come. Australia Moves Forward with the
00:06:06
purchase of hundreds of Tomahawk cruise missiles and the
00:06:10
September Equinox, the constellations Capricorn and
00:06:13
Aquarius and the epsilon perseus meteor showers will continue to
00:06:18
dominate the night skies of September on sky watch.
00:06:38
The Australian Defense Force has agreed to purchase hundreds of
00:06:40
long range Tomahawk cruise missiles from Raytheon as part
00:06:44
of a $1.7 billion program. The initial deployment will see 220
00:06:49
block four Tomahawks which have a range of over 1500 kilometers
00:06:53
assigned to the navy's Aegis Hobart class destroyers.
00:06:57
The deal means Australia will become only the third nation in
00:07:00
the world after the United States and Great Britain to have
00:07:04
a Tomahawk long range strike capability. Later deployments
00:07:08
will also see Tomahawks assigned to Australian nuclear submarines
00:07:12
which are yet to be built. But plans to refit the existing
00:07:16
Collins class submarines to take Tomahawks have been put on hold
00:07:19
for now.
00:07:20
The deal will also see the air force acquire arguer extended
00:07:24
range advanced anti radiation guided missiles for use on F-35,
00:07:28
a lightning to stealth fighters and both fa 18 super hornets and
00:07:32
fa 18 growlers. The American made air to ground missiles are
00:07:37
designed to target enemy radar systems.
00:07:40
Meanwhile, the army's box of combat reconnaissance vehicles
00:07:43
will be armed with new spark long range, two anti tank guided
00:07:46
missiles which will enable troops to engage the enemy at
00:07:50
ranges of more than five kilometers. The new missile
00:07:53
announcements come on top of news that the acquisition of
00:07:56
high MARS that is high mobility arterial rocket system launches
00:08:00
will double from initial 21 to at least 42 sets.
00:08:05
About $1.6 billion will be spent on expanding, accelerating the
00:08:09
acquisition of the land based long range, surface to surface
00:08:12
high MARS as well as associated munitions and support systems.
00:08:16
The project also includes the PSM precision strike missile
00:08:20
which is expected to have a range of over 500 kilometers.
00:08:23
Australia's latest defense acquisitions come as China
00:08:27
increases its military build up in the Pacific which has seen
00:08:30
further aggressive actions in the South China Sea against
00:08:33
neighboring countries. The ongoing build up of its navy,
00:08:36
which is now the largest in the world.
00:08:37
A major increase in Chinese air power is only kept in check by
00:08:42
the fact that the West has a 20 to 1 kill ratio advantage over
00:08:46
the best generation five Chinese technology and China's nuclear
00:08:50
missile development program, which is expected to reach over
00:08:53
3000 nuclear warheads by the end of the decade. This Space time.
00:09:14
And time out to turn our eyes to the skies and check out the
00:09:18
night skies for September on SkyWatch. September was the
00:09:22
seventh month of the year in the old Roman calendar which had
00:09:25
just 10 months. That's before the edition of January and
00:09:28
February that 10 month year is still reflected today in the
00:09:32
name September or Septum being Latin for 7 October octo meaning
00:09:38
8 November and November 9 and December O desi meaning 10.
00:09:43
It really wasn't until the Gregorian calendar that January
00:09:47
the first marked the start of the New Year. But in the
00:09:49
beginning, it was mostly only Catholic countries that adopted
00:09:52
it.
00:09:53
Protestant nations only gradually moved across with the
00:09:56
British, for example, not adopting the reform calendar
00:09:59
until 17 52. Prior to that date, the British Empire and its
00:10:04
American colonies still celebrated the New Year on March
00:10:08
the 25th, marking the feast of the annunciation in Easter.
00:10:13
The earliest recordings of a New Year's celebration are believed
00:10:16
to have taken place in Mesopotamia around 2000 BC
00:10:20
around the time of the northern hemisphere vernal Equinox. In
00:10:24
mid March. A variety of other dates tied to the seasons are
00:10:28
also used by various ancient cultures. The Egyptians,
00:10:32
Phoenicians and Persians began their New Year off with the fall
00:10:35
Equinox and the Greeks celebrated it on the winter
00:10:38
solstice.
00:10:39
Well, the Jewish New Year or Rosh Hashana, the festival of
00:10:42
trumpets occurs in September where it marks the beginning of
00:10:46
the northern hemisphere's cycle of sowing growth and harvest.
00:10:49
And apparently the creation of Adam and Eve. According to the
00:10:52
Jewish Bible of the Old Testament.
00:10:54
The astronomical highlight of the month is the September
00:10:57
Equinox which this year takes place at 16 50 in the afternoon
00:11:01
of Saturday, September the 23rd Australian Eastern Standard
00:11:05
time. That's 2 50 in the morning of Saturday, September 23rd us
00:11:09
eastern daylight time and 6:50 a.m. Greenwich.
00:11:13
Meantime, the day marks the point in Earth's orbit around
00:11:16
the sun. When the planet's rotational axial tilt means the
00:11:19
sun will appear to rise exactly due east to someone standing on
00:11:23
the equator. It means almost equal hours of darkness and
00:11:27
light.
00:11:28
In fact, the word Equinox is derived from the Latin meaning a
00:11:31
quus or equal and Knox meaning night, it all comes about
00:11:36
because Earth's rotational axis is tilted at an angle of around
00:11:39
23.4 degrees. In relation to the ecliptic, the plane created by
00:11:44
Earth's orbit around the sun and Earth's axial tilt is pointed in
00:11:48
the same direction in the sky, regardless of Earth's orbital
00:11:51
position around the sun.
00:11:53
So on other days of the year, either the northern or Southern
00:11:56
hemisphere are tilted more towards the sun. But on the two
00:12:00
equinoxes around March the 21st and September 23rd, the tilt of
00:12:05
Earth's axis is directly perpendicular to the sun's rays.
00:12:09
For those in the northern hemisphere, it means the start
00:12:11
of fall or autumn. While those of us south of the equator are
00:12:15
moving into spring. Now, it's also worth noting that on
00:12:19
geological timescales, the solstices and equinoxes change
00:12:23
because of a process called procession which causes Earth's
00:12:26
spinning axes to wobble like the axle of a spinning top.
00:12:30
The rate of procession is only about half a degree per century.
00:12:33
So people don't notice it on human timescales. But because
00:12:37
the direction of Earth's axis of rotation determines at which
00:12:40
point in Earth's orbit, the seasons occur, procession will
00:12:44
cause a particular season to occur at a slightly different
00:12:47
time from year to year.
00:12:49
Over a 21 year cycle of course, as well as procession,
00:12:53
the Earth's orbit itself is also subjected to small changes
00:12:56
called perturbations. That's because Earth's orbit and
00:12:59
alerts.
00:13:00
And so there's a slow change in its orientation which gradually
00:13:04
shifts the point of perihelium, Earth's closest orbital position
00:13:07
to the sun. Now, these two effects the procession of the
00:13:11
axis of rotation and the change in the orbits orientation work
00:13:16
together to shift the seasons with respect to para helium.
00:13:20
And because we use a calendar year that's aligned to the
00:13:23
occurrence of the seasons, the date of perihelium will
00:13:26
gradually regress through this 21 year cycle unless we
00:13:30
compensate for it.
00:13:32
Ok, let's start our tour of the September 9th skies by looking
00:13:36
towards the east and the constellation of Capricornus.
00:13:39
The goat, the name comes from the ancient Greek tale about the
00:13:43
demon Typhon emerging from a fisher in the Earth and
00:13:46
attacking Zeus the king of gods during a banquet.
00:13:50
The sudden appearance of Typhon scared pan, the flute playing
00:13:53
goat, boy who tried to escape by turning to a fish and swimming
00:13:57
away. However, he realized his cowardice before completing the
00:14:02
transformation and so distracted the demon by playing his flute
00:14:06
instead.
00:14:07
And this gave Zeus enough time to use a thunderbolt from the
00:14:10
heavens to frighten Typhon away because of his actions, both
00:14:14
cowardly and brave Zeus placed pan in the sky. Forevermore
00:14:19
still in his half goat, half fish guys. The brightest star in
00:14:24
Capricornus is delta Capricorn, also known as Deneb jetty or the
00:14:29
tail of the goat. It's a near neighbor located just 39 light
00:14:33
years away.
00:14:34
A layer is about 10 trillion kilometers. The distance of
00:14:38
photon can travel in a year at the speed of light which is
00:14:41
about 300 kilometers per second in a vacuum. And the
00:14:45
ultimate speed limit across the universe. Deni Jedi is a
00:14:49
spectral type, a white beta lira variable eclipsing binary.
00:14:54
It's comprised of two stars closely orbiting each other.
00:14:58
Now, astronomers describe stars in terms of spectral types, a
00:15:02
classification system based on temperature and characteristics.
00:15:06
The hottest most massive and most luminous stars are known as
00:15:10
spectral type O blue stars.
00:15:12
They're followed by spectra type B blue white stars, then
00:15:16
spectral type A white stars, spiritual type F whiteish yellow
00:15:20
stars, spectra type G yellow stars, that's where our sun fits
00:15:24
in. Then there's spectral type K orange stars and the coolest and
00:15:29
least massive stars are known as spectral type M red dwarf stars.
00:15:34
Each spectra classification can also be subdivided using a
00:15:37
numeric digit to represent temperature with zero being the
00:15:40
hottest to name the coolest and a Roman numeral to represent
00:15:44
luminosity. Now put all that together and our sun is
00:15:48
officially classified as a spectral type G two V or G 25
00:15:53
yellow dwarf star as we mentioned earlier, Deba Jedi is
00:15:58
a beta lira variable eclipsing binary system.
00:16:01
It's made up of two stars closely orbiting each other, the
00:16:06
total brightness of the system changes because the two
00:16:09
component stars periodically pass in front of each other as
00:16:12
seen from Earth, thereby blocking out the light from the
00:16:15
other star in the system.
00:16:16
The two component stars of beta Lyra systems are usually massive
00:16:20
giants or super giants so close to each other that their shapes
00:16:24
are heavily distorted by their mutual gravitational forces.
00:16:28
This gives each of the stars in the system an ellipsoidal shape
00:16:32
with extensive mass flows from one component to the other just
00:16:37
below Capra Corus.
00:16:38
On the eastern horizon, you'll see the constellation Aquarius,
00:16:41
the water carrier to the gods. Greek mythology describes
00:16:45
Aquarius as the most beautiful looking boy they'd ever lived
00:16:49
and so was carried from Earth up to Mount Olympus by in the guise
00:16:53
of Aquila, the eagle to become the water carrier.
00:16:57
The two brightest stars in Aquarius are Alfre Beta Aquare,
00:17:00
a pair of luminous yellow super giants that were once spectral
00:17:04
type B, blue white stars. The pair are moving through Space
00:17:08
perpendicular to the plane of the milky way galaxy beta auri.
00:17:13
The brightest of the pair is also known as Cedar Sud.
00:17:17
It's a multiple star system located about 540 light years
00:17:21
away. The primary star is about six times the mass of the sun,
00:17:25
but emits roughly 2300 times the sun's luminosity implying
00:17:29
already is at least 50 times that of our sun. Beta Aquare
00:17:33
appears to have at least two faint companion stars, but
00:17:36
you'll need a decent sized telescope to see them.
00:17:40
The second brightest star in Aquarius is Alpha Aquare, also
00:17:44
known as Saddam Melek. It's about 520 light years away
00:17:48
around 6.5 times as massive as the sun and some 3000 times as
00:17:53
luminous.
00:17:54
Next, we move to the Southern constellation of Parsi Rena, the
00:17:58
Southern Fish, the brightest star in the constellation is
00:18:01
former halt the mouth of the Southern fish and the 18th
00:18:04
brightest star in the night sky. Interestingly, thousands of
00:18:08
years ago, it was used to Mark the position of the winter
00:18:11
solstice.
00:18:12
The sun's most southerly position is seen from the
00:18:14
northern hemisphere. But the procession of the equinoxes
00:18:18
which we talked about earlier has now moved the northern
00:18:21
winter solstice to its new position in December, located
00:18:24
only 25 light years away. Former hat is a spectral type, a white
00:18:29
yellow star about twice the mass of the sun and around 16 times
00:18:33
as luminous.
00:18:34
It's also a really young star only about 400 million years
00:18:37
old. By comparison, our own star of the sun is some 4.6 billion
00:18:42
years of age. Former hat exhibits an excess of infrared
00:18:46
radiation indicating that it's surrounded by a circumstellar
00:18:50
disk. It's also part of a triple star system together with the
00:18:54
spectral type K orange dwarf star TWP A strine and a spectra
00:18:58
type M red dwarf star LP 8 76 minus 10 turning to the north.
00:19:04
Now, there you'll see the constellation Pegasus, the
00:19:08
winged horse of Greek mythology. Pegasus is the one who delivered
00:19:12
Medusa's head to Polys, after which he traveled to Mount
00:19:15
Olympus in order to become the bearer of thunder and lightning
00:19:18
bolts for Zeus, the brightest star in Pegasus is the orange
00:19:22
super giant epsilon Begay which marks the horse's muzzle almost
00:19:27
12 times the mass of the sun.
00:19:29
It's blurted out to a spectra type K super giant nearing the
00:19:32
end of its life. Astronomers are still debating as to whether it
00:19:36
will end its days as a core collapsed supernova or a rare
00:19:40
neon oxygen white dwarf.
00:19:43
Also in the north is the constellation Cygnus. The Swan,
00:19:46
which lies on the plane of the milky way galaxy Snus contains
00:19:50
the star Deneb, one of the brightest stars in the night sky
00:19:53
and one of the corners of the summer triangle. It's also home
00:19:57
to the giant Snus Obe Two Stellar Association which
00:20:01
includes one of the largest known stars in the universe.
00:20:03
M and LS sign a red higher giant about 1183 times the radius and
00:20:10
50 times the mass of our sun. In fact, were it placed at the
00:20:14
center of our solar system where the sun is, its surface would
00:20:18
extend out beyond the orbit of Jupiter? It's so big. It
00:20:22
contains a volume, approximately 1.6 billion times that of the
00:20:26
sun. Nl Sydney is located about 5300 light years away.
00:20:32
Now Snus is also home to Snus X One, a powerful galactic x-ray
00:20:38
source which became the first widely accepted black hole. It
00:20:42
was discovered back in 1964. And even today, it remains one of
00:20:46
the most studied astronomical objects in the sky. The black
00:20:50
hole is estimated to have about 14.8 times the mass of our sun
00:20:54
all crammed into an event horizon with a radius of just 44
00:20:58
kilometers.
00:21:00
Little wonder black holes are the densest objects in the
00:21:02
universe located just above the northern horizon. This time of
00:21:07
the year is the star Vega. It's the brightest star in the
00:21:10
constellation Lyra and the fifth brightest star in the night sky,
00:21:14
Vega has about twice the mass of our sun.
00:21:17
And it's a relatively young star less than 500 million years old
00:21:21
and it's also fairly close just 25 light years away. Now, once
00:21:25
again, due to the procession of Earth's rotational axis, Vega
00:21:29
used to be the northern pole star around 14 years ago and
00:21:34
it will do so again in another 12 years time, just above
00:21:39
Vega is alpha aquile or Alter the brightest star.
00:21:42
The constellation Aquila, it's a special type, a white yellow
00:21:46
star with about twice the mass of our sun Alter is located
00:21:51
really nearby just 16.7 light years away and it rotates very
00:21:56
rapidly with an equatorial velocity of about 286 kilometers
00:22:00
per second.
00:22:01
And that's a significant fraction of the star's estimated
00:22:04
breakup speed of around 400 kilometers per second. Now, this
00:22:08
high rotation rate means terre isn't spherical but highly
00:22:11
flattened at the poles. Alter is the eye of the eagle that
00:22:16
carried a quarry up to Mount Olympus to become the water
00:22:18
bearer for the gods.
00:22:21
Look into the southeast now and you'll see the bright star
00:22:24
Acana. It's the brightest star of the constellation. Ero Dani,
00:22:27
the river located around 100 and 40 light years away. Acana has
00:22:31
seven times the mass and 3000 times the luminosity of our sun.
00:22:36
The star rotates so rapidly. It 's elliptical in shape with its
00:22:40
diameter being about 56% wider than its polar diameter.
00:22:45
September also sees the bulk of the origins meteor shower which
00:22:49
is produced as the Earth passes through the debris trail left by
00:22:53
the comet Kes C 1911 N one. Kes is a long period comet only
00:22:58
reaching the inner solar system every 1800 to 2000 years. It's
00:23:03
meteor shower runs between August the 28th and September
00:23:06
the fifth.
00:23:07
The origins provide up to five swift and bright Meteors an hour
00:23:11
with its peak just before dawn on September the first. It's
00:23:15
best viewed from the northern hemisphere as it's radiant. That
00:23:18
is the direction the Meteors appear to be coming from lies in
00:23:21
the northern sky constellation of central or a second meteor
00:23:26
shower in the month of September is the Epsilon Perseids which
00:23:30
run from September the fifth to the 21st.
00:23:33
Although they're called the Epsilon Perseids, the radiant
00:23:36
actually lies closer to the star beta perseus or alcohol. Now,
00:23:40
the epsilon perseid should be confused with last month's
00:23:42
perseids meteor shower. That's because while both appear to
00:23:46
have their radi the constellation perseus, they're
00:23:49
caused by debris trails from two very different comets.
00:23:53
Turning now to the planets. And MARS is low in the West in Virgo
00:23:57
in the evenings on September the 16th, a very thin crescent moon
00:24:01
will be seen just below MARS.
00:24:03
While the next night, it'll be above MARS and to the right or
00:24:06
north, the other evening planetary sighting will be
00:24:09
Saturn, which will be in the east in Aquarius, the Gibbus
00:24:13
Moon will be just below Saturn to the right or north on the
00:24:16
27th turning to the morning planets now and you'll find
00:24:19
Venus low in the North East in cancer.
00:24:22
But moving into Leo during the last week of the month, on
00:24:25
September 11th, the crescent moon will be to the left or
00:24:28
north of Venus. Mercury is out of sight blocked by the sun's
00:24:32
glare so we can forget about that.
00:24:34
But Jupiter will be in the north West in areas in the morning
00:24:37
with the Gibbous Moon just below and Saturn will still be up from
00:24:41
the previous night. But very low in the West as it disappears
00:24:44
below the western horizon during the final week of the month,
00:24:48
this is Space time.
