Listen to us talk about everything from Black holes to the Northern Lights.
Using a global network of telescopes, scientists have managed to capture an image of a black hole for the first time. Hannah Devlin speaks to Dr Matt Middleton from the University of Southampton about decades of research that led to the achievement.

Where the conditions are right, life can arise. But what might the ‘right’ conditions be? Could the dark sector of our Universe be inhabited?

A black hole is so massive and confined in such a small volume in space that not even light can escape its gravitational pull. Discover how Dr Diego Altamirano is using X-ray and optical telescopes, and the world's largest radio antenna, to push the boundaries of physics to try and understand the properties of black holes.

Dr. Caitriona Jackman has spent virtually all of her academic career focused on Saturn and, more specifically, on the vast amount of data sent back to Earth by the Cassini-Huygens mission to the ringed planet. As the Cassini mission reaches its final stages and prepares to plunge into the gaseous cloud surrounding Saturn Dr. Jackman is excited but with a hint of melancholy as the probe ends its 20-year mission.
