Are interferometers the future of telescopes? Can we aim at stars by knowing only where they were billions of years ago? Is the Apophis asteroid still dangerous? And in Q&A+, can we just sent the SG-1 to it?
00:00 Intro

00:37 [@PerryM-vy4fe] Are Interferometers the future of space telescopes?

03:36 [@Frosty.Winnipeg] If we can see stars a billion light years away can we guesstimate where they are now?

05:29 [@PeterYannick] Where do we have to aim a laser if we want to sent a message to Alpha Centauri?

07:19 [@andrewczski1969] Apophis in 2029 can shut the WHOLE show down, no?

12:43 [@kairon156] Are there any plans on getting rock samples from Mar's moons?

14:25 [@Frosty.Winnipeg] Can’t we just send SG-1 to face Apophis?
