If you’re struggling, consider therapy with BetterHelp #ad. Click betterhelp.com/drbecky for a 10% discount on your first month of therapy with a credentialed professional specific to your needs. In this month’s Night Sky News we’re chatting about the Chandrayaan-3 mission to the South Pole of the Moon, evidence of wet-dry cycle of water on early Mars which gives the right conditions to form the molecules for life, and the latest evidence for JWST which has added fire to the “crisis in cosmology” (aka the Hubble Tension). Plus what you should look out for in the night sky in the next month.

👩🏽💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford (Christ Church). I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
