Major Gazer is the space & science show that takes the cosmos and the unexplained seriously. Host Kali Kross explores hard astronomy, physics, and the strangest material the universe has on offer. Episodes range across black holes and quantum mechanics, what Voyager is still telling us from interstellar space, the Wow Signal, and the Tic Tac videos. What do they actually contain, and what's still missing? Each episode walks through what we know, what's been claimed beyond the evidence, and what's genuinely still open. No clickbait. No conspiracy energy. No mysticism. Just specific facts, named sources, named missions, and the actual weirdness of the real universe.

  • Fast radio bursts repeat on a 16-day cycle from space

    Fast radio bursts repeat on a 16-day cycle from space
    Jun 6 2026
    There’s a weird telescope in British Columbia called CHIME with zero moving parts—it doesn’t even point anywhere, it just sits there while Earth rotates and scans the whole sky. It was built to study dark energy, but it accidentally became an FRB machine, logging 500+ fast radio bursts: millisecond flashes from billions of light-years away, including FRB 20180916B that hits on a real 16-day cycle (4 days on, 12 off). The leading clue isn’t aliens—it’s a magnetar in our own galaxy (SGR 1935+2154) that fired an FRB-like burst, while the 16-day pattern is still an active fight between natural models like a binary orbit or a precessing jet.

  • Jupiter removes about a million asteroids from Earth's path

    Jupiter removes about a million asteroids from Earth's path
    May 30 2026
    Jupiter being Earth’s “guardian” is only half the story — the same gravity that carved the Kirkwood gaps can also shove asteroids into Earth-crossing orbits. Yes, it literally shredded Comet Shoemaker‑Levy 9 on camera in 1994 and likely helped drain the asteroid belt (Dawn data backs the long-term sculpting), but Jonathan Horner’s peer‑reviewed models say a smaller or differently placed Jupiter could mean fewer impacts on Earth. Between Grand Tack vs Nice model chaos and the messy Late Heavy Bombardment debate, Jupiter might be shield, threat, or both — and scientists still don’t agree which.

  • The grandfather paradox isn't actually a paradox at all

    The grandfather paradox isn't actually a paradox at all
    May 23 2026
    The grandfather paradox isn’t proof time travel is impossible — it’s proof that backward time travel plus unconstrained free will breaks logic. General relativity actually allows closed timelike curves (Gödel’s rotating-universe solution, plus Kip Thorne’s traversable wormhole work), and physicists have two clean “outs”: Novikov self-consistency (your past actions were always part of history, like Thorne’s wormhole billiard-ball math) or Deutsch’s many-worlds branching (Avengers: Endgame vibes, not Back to the Future). Hawking’s Chronology Protection Conjecture is basically the skeptical counterpunch: maybe nature blocks time machines in practice, but nobody can prove it without quantum gravity.
