Do you ever feel dizzy when you think about the incomprehensible scale of space? We call that feeling Cosmic Vertigo. Welcome to a head-spinning conversation between two friends about the sparkly -- and not so sparkly -- stuff in the sky.

010 | Baby pictures and bird poo: It’s amazing what you find when you try to see the dawn of time. This season of Cosmic Vertigo ends at the very beginning: the Big Bang. by Cosmic Vertigo
21 min listen
000 | Welcome to the party! (That's us): Meet your hosts, astronomers Dr Amanda Bauer and Dr Alan Duffy. by Cosmic Vertigo
3 min listen
006 | A pretty exciting place: It's a patchy, pale river in the sky - and a twirling spiral of 400 billion stars. It’s also headed for a dazzling intergalactic train wreck. Welcome to our Milky Way. by Cosmic Vertigo
18 min listen
003 | The bigger they are, the faster they burn: What makes a star a star? When will Betelgeuse explode? Amanda explores what "any day now" means in astronomy and Alan starts measuring mass in millions of marsupials. by Cosmic Vertigo
27 min listen
008 | The invisible wind: Dark Matter flies through solid walls like a ghost. Humans have buried super-sensitive crystals to try and detect it - and our Universe doesn’t make any sense without it. by Cosmic Vertigo
27 min listen
001 | A giant lump of rock and iron: It’s drifting away from Earth at the same rate that your fingernails grow, but the Moon is still our closest neighbour - so close, that we’ve left quite a lot of litter on its surface… by Cosmic Vertigo
23 min listen
014 | Emptier than empty: We’re told space is a vast empty vacuum. But how empty can it be, if we know it’s full of stars and black holes, nebulas and galaxies? Alan and Amanda hop aboard a space elevator and rise through the Earth's atmospheric layers to explore our not-so-empty Universe. by Cosmic Vertigo
27 min listen
009 | Emptier than empty and getting even emptier: In the unimaginably vast gaps between galaxies, something is accelerating the universe towards a lonely future. Alan and Amanda shake their heads at Dark Energy. by Cosmic Vertigo
26 min listen
002 | Measly little specks of dust: Our Solar System started out as a chaotic Primordial Pancake. Now it hosts the eight planets we know and love, plus poor old Pluto, plus some other stuff. Like asteroids with their own moons. by Cosmic Vertigo
29 min listen
GUESS WHO'S BACK?!: Cosmic Vertigo season 2 is COMING SOON! And we need your help. Want to share your own personal experience of Cosmic Vertigo? Or do you have a spacey question you're burning to ask Alan and Amanda? Grab a smartphone, and use the inbuilt audio recorder to record your message. Then email that file to cosmicvertigo@abc.net.au by Cosmic Vertigo

31 min listen
The Moon Landing 003 - Chicken stew in space: As they continued their trip to the moon, the Apollo 11 astronauts had to figure out how to live in space by Cosmic Vertigo
3 min listen
012 | Smaller than small: Zooming right in from the decommissioned dwarf planet Pluto to the humble yet powerful atom helium, Amanda and Alan measure up the smallest things in the Universe — with the aid of a strand of your hair. by Cosmic Vertigo
27 min listen
011 | Bigger than big: The biggest things in the Universe don't necessarily last the longest. Massive swollen stars, hundreds of times bigger than our own sun, burn through their fuel and either explode into a supernova or become a black hole. by Cosmic Vertigo
29 min listen
018 | Quicker than quick: You'd think we'd notice thousands of explosions in the night sky. Shorter than a millisecond, these bursts were first recorded in 2007 and while scientists know they're there, we are still unsure of their origin. by Cosmic Vertigo
31 min listen
Cosmic Query | clusters and milkshakes: A serving of Globular Clusters and Amanda's favourite milkshake (it's not chocolate). by Cosmic Vertigo
6 min listen
016 | Cooler than Cool: Temperature levels across the Universe vary wildly. The Boomerang Nebula is the coldest known object, but back on Earth scientists are working towards achieving absolute zero. It doesn't get any cooler than that. by Cosmic Vertigo
