Listen to Astroengine Live on WPRT Radio, Today

In an effort to bring the space news efforts from the Internet to the radio, I have my own little radio show every Wednesday!

I’ve been a regular guest on Paranormal Radio with Captain Jack (his awesome show will start immediately after mine, so stay tuned) for a few months now and it looks like they enjoy what I have to say and gave me this two hour slot each week!

I’m really excited about the possibilities this opens up as it is a great way to promote not only articles on the Universe Today and my space science blog Astroengine.com, but the whole space blogosphere. Key to this will be a regular slot for the Carnival of Space where a superb collection space news can be found on the finest space blogs. So, I hope to give the CoS good coverage each week, starting with the 80th week of the Carnival (I’m looking at you Ethan!)…

Astroengine Live actually started last week, but due to technical teething problems I was unable to archive the episode. If you did listen in, you would have heard me getting all excited about the possibilities for the International Space Station and the future of manned space flight, but I’ll be sure to give a quick run-down of last week’s show today.

I’m still trying to find my way with doing a live show and as the set-up is pretty basic at the moment (I can’t interview guests or have phone-ins), but this will change in the not-so-distant future.

So, if you fancy listening in today, the show starts at 4pm PST (7pm EST/midnight GMT).

Send any emails about any space/science related news to: astro@wprtradio.com and I’ll try to give it a mention!

Note: I also have my own theme tune! It’s based on Crystal Method’s “High Roller” that rocked anyway, but it’s now the foundation of Astroengine Live! So if anything, tune into the first 5 minutes to hear what the excellent WPRT team have created for me!

[Follow me on Twitter (@astroengine)] [Check out my space blog: Astroengine.com] [Check out my radio show: Astroengine Live!] Hello! My name is Ian O'Neill and I've been writing for the Universe Today since December 2007. I am a solar physics doctor, but my space interests are wide-ranging. Since becoming a science writer I have been drawn to the more extreme astrophysics concepts (like black hole dynamics), high energy physics (getting excited about the LHC!) and general space colonization efforts. I am also heavily involved with the Mars Homestead project (run by the Mars Foundation), an international organization to advance our settlement concepts on Mars. I also run my own space physics blog: Astroengine.com, be sure to check it out!
