In this month’s Night Sky News episode we’re chatting about how to spot the conjunction of Mars & Jupiter, the Moon occult Saturn, and the Pleiades meteor shower. Plus in space news we’ll be chatting about the intermediate mass black hole that’s been found in our galaxy, right in the mass gap where we’ve never found a black hole of that mass before, ESA’s recent Ariane 6 launch, JWST’s look at the famous Penguin galaxy, plus the asteroid Chiron turning into a comet.

👩🏽💻 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.
