Astronomycast episode 268 from Monday, June 4, 2012. Energy.

Welcome to Astronomycast, our weekly facts-based journey through the cosmos, where we help you understand not only what we know, but how we know what we know.

My name is Fraser Cane, I'm the publisher of Universe Day, and with me is Dr. Pamela Gaye, a professor at Southern Illinois University at Pamela.

How are you doing?

I'm doing well. How are you doing today, Fraser?

Doing really well. So once again, we are recording this episode of Astronomycast as a live Google Plus Hangout.

We do this every Monday at noon, so if you ever want to see what Pamela and I look like, you can.

Also, what's cool is we'll record the main show and the people watching the show will give us their comments and questions and feedback and ideas.

But at the end, we'll stick around for about half an hour and just answer questions from people.

We sort of lost our question show a few, maybe about a year ago, a year and a half ago, just because we're so busy.

Yeah, because we're so busy, but we love the question show.

And so this is the way that we're feeding the question show back into the show.

So if you want to come and watch that and everything is all archived on YouTube as well, and you can access it all from, you know, if you go to our Astronomycast site,

all of the episodes are available in full, the video on the pages with various episodes.

So if, you know, if just listening to us isn't enough and you want to improve the experience, then you can go and check it out.

You can watch it in different places. So just want to let people know that they can do that.

All right. Are you, uh, shall we, should we get crack into it? Do you have any more announcements?

I, I think the most important thing I can say is if you want to look with your eyes at images of the Apollo 15 landing site as seen by the lunar reconnaissance orbiter,

images right now are in the Moon Mappers project at CosmoQuest.org. So CosmoQuest.org slash Mappers slash Moon.

We're trying really hard to release some new science about this region of, of the moon that has actually had humans walking on it.
