HeyJaredESA Explores Space Operations
From ESA’s mission control in Darmstadt, Germany, spacecraft are flown in Earth orbit; taking the pulse of our unique planet, and across the Solar System; exploring our local environment and looking out to the universe beyond.It is from here, too, that we keep watch over…

The depths of space, Euclid, LISA, and the mysterious effects of gravity - Expedition Sound 4 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ripples in the fabric of reality, distant galaxies acting as lenses, and filaments of galaxies stretching across the cosmos – gravity is more than just the force that keeps us from floating off the surface of Earth. In this final episode of Expedition Sound, we venture out into deep space and explore some of the extraordinary phenomena caused by gravity that we can observe with ESA’s space missions. Guided by a sonification of a collage of so-called Einstein Rings, we explore how gravity shapes
Our galaxy and faraway worlds, Gaia, Plato, and hearing stars wobble - Expedition Sound 3 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Wobbling stars and distant worlds – in this episode of Expedition Sound, we leave the planets of our Solar System behind and venture out into our home galaxy to explore the stars and exoplanets in the Milky Way galaxy. Through the sonification of so-called starquakes observed by the European Space Agency’s Gaia space telescope, we explore what we can learn from listening to the heartbeat of stars and how astronomers uncover clues about their age, structure and life story. We hear from Sarah Kane
The Solar System, BepiColombo, and flying towards Mercury - Expedition Sound 2 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We get as close as possible to travelling aboard a spacecraft, experiencing what it would be like to fly towards planet Mercury. Through a sonification of data collected during ESA/JAXA BepiColombo’s sixth flyby, we can almost feel the spacecraft shaking and the rocky planet’s gravity tugging on it. In this episode of Expedition Sound, we explore the planets of our Solar System and make a stop at planet Mercury. Blasted by the Sun's intense heat and shaped by a magnetic field unlike any other ro
Our Sun, Solar Orbiter, and listening to solar fireworks - Expedition Sound 1 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Guided by a sonification created with data from the ESA-led Solar Orbiter mission, we explore some of the mysteries of our Sun, how Solar Orbiter is studying them, and how sound can make astronomy more accessible. In this episode of Expedition Sound, we set off on our first journey of this podcast series and travel to the Sun – our familiar, friendly neighbourhood star. Along the way, we meet one of Solar Orbiter’s project scientists Miho Janvier, who helps us uncover the science behind solar fl
