2019 began with the successful flyby of Ultima Thule (2014 MU69 – more on the name in the show!) by the New Horizons spacecraft, but there’s much more to talk about, including a discovery of more Fast Radio Bursters (mysterious sources of tremendous energy), and observations that show phase transitions in White Dwarf stars. Josh, Addie and Jim have got it all, plus space news and trivia, in this episode that kicks off the Year of the Astroquark. You heard it here first!
