Email Subscriptions via Feedburner…. Issues…. an FYI

info — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 03:21:18 +0000

We are going to need to apologize for some issues we seemed to have back in June with the Feedburner service we are using to distribute the feed from the blog via email updates.

It seems that on June 25th feedburner lost or unsubscribed over 500 recipients of our feed via email. And we really have no way to recover them or even tell them that the feed email update has been broken.

I guess that is sadly what can happen with a free service like feedburner – it has worked flawlessly on other blogs but it kind of messed us on this one.

So if you were subscribed please feel free to use the box on the right columns to subscribe again so we can reestablish the link to you via email.

If you have questions please let us know via the contact page.

Sorry for the issues…..

Ep. 98: Quasars

Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 00:00:00 +0000

Last week we talked about galaxies in general, and hinted at the most violent and energetic ones out there: active galaxies. Quasars have been a mystery for half a century; what kind of object could throw out more radiation than an entire galaxy? A black hole, it turns out, with the mass of hundreds of millions of suns performs this feat. Let's trace back the history of quasars, how they were first discovered and puzzled astronomers for so long. And let's look at what we know today.
