Hello and welcome to the supermassive podcast from the Royal Astronomical Society with me,

science journalist Izzy Clark, live from the UK's national astronomy meeting in the beautiful city of Durham.

Now, this is very exciting because normally myself and Dr. Becky are just sat in our home offices,

kind of just like mooching around like, oh, what have you been up to?

And now, but today we actually have actual people in front of us.

We have our audience here.

And I've got this in the script where the cream of the astronomy community meet.

So that's what you guys are.

But here with me today are some lovely guests as well.

We have Dr. Ziri Yunzi, lecturer in general relativistic astrophysics at UCL,

Jim Wilde, Professor of Space Physics at Lancaster University and President-elect of the Royal Astronomical

Society. Yeah, and obviously the one and only Dr. Robert Massey, deputy director of the Royal Astronomical Society.

So Robert, Becky can't join us.

So you're okay to take like the really, really, really hard questions.

Yeah, I mean, we often write about how I, in particular, squirm when I get certain questions.

And I'll be doing that live and visually as well.

It's the line where we say, this is a good question.

Exactly.

This is a hard question.

The pause for breath.

They're kind of chewing over the topic and then, yeah, we get that.

Yes.
