The Cosmic Savannah - 34: The Life Cycle of Galaxies

<p class="p1">Hosted by Dr. Jacinta Delhaize & Dr. Daniel Cunnama.</p> <p class="p1">This episode we hear from a familiar voice! SALT Astronomer <strong>Dr. Moses Mogotsi</strong> was our first ever guest on The Cosmic Savannah. He joins us again to explain what it’s like to observe in the time of COVID and to tell us more about his research on galaxies.</p> <p class="p1">Moses is an expert on the baryonic cycle – the passage of gas through galaxies over time. He explains how we can observe gas falling into galaxies, how it forms into stars, and where it goes when those stars die.</p> <p class="p1">We learn about how observing galaxies at different wavelengths and with different telescopes can add to our overall understanding of how galaxies evolve.</p> <p class="p2"> </p> <p class="p1">We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p class="p1">Just visit: <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy">https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy</a> and donate as much as you can!</p> <p class="p1">Share the podcast with your friends and send the Patreon link to them too!<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p class="p1">Every bit helps!
