  • Résumé

  • Join us for a skyward journey as Venus blazes at its brightest this week, offering a perfect chance to observe its changing phases—and a centuries-old enigma known as the Ashen Light. Discover the science behind Venus’ evolving crescent, Galileo’s historic observations, and the theories surrounding that mysterious glow on the planet’s night side.

    Then, we travel far beyond the solar system to uncover the story of the Voyager Golden Record, humanity’s interstellar time capsule now drifting in the vast cosmic ocean.

    Items discussed:

    • Images on the Golden Record (NASA)
    • Listen: Sounds & Music | Greetings from Earth
    • Decoding images on the Golden Record
