🚀 Exploring the Cosmos with Solaris – Episode 8
🎙️ "Echoes from the Void: The Story of Warp Drives & Faster-than-Light Travel"

Year 2495. A lone transmission drifts through the void, a final mission log from the edge of the known universe. Humanity has conquered the impossible—we have bent spacetime, defied the speed of light, and crossed interstellar distances in hours. But what did it take to get here? And what lies beyond the final frontier?

In this episode, we dive into the history of space travel, Einstein’s speed limit, and the revolutionary Alcubierre warp drive—a concept that turned science fiction into reality. From the early struggles of chemical rockets to the breakthrough discovery of negative energy, we explore the challenges and triumphs that led to the dawn of interstellar travel.

But as we push further into the unknown, one question lingers… was it worth it?

🌌 Buckle up for the most immersive journey yet. The void is calling. Will you answer?

In this episode of Exploring the Cosmos with SOLARIS, Nayan and Keerthi take you on a deep dive into the fascinating world of exoplanet discovery. From decoding starlight using the radial velocity method to observing tiny transits that reveal distant planets, they explore the ingenious ways astronomers uncover these hidden worlds.

Discover how direct imaging is pushing technological boundaries, why gravitational microlensing feels like something straight out of Interstellar, and how astrometry unlocks precision tracking at an unimaginable scale. Along the way, Nayan and Keerthi break down the challenges and successes of missions like Kepler, TESS, and the James Webb Space Telescope.

Join them as they unpack the tools and techniques that are not just finding new planets—but also searching for signs of life beyond Earth. Could we be on the verge of discovering another Earth? The answer may be closer than we think.

Tune in, get curious, and keep exploring!
