À propos de cet audio

We are all travelers on a single current - a River of Space and Time flowing from the hearts of ancient suns into the distant future. But we aren't just standing on the banks watching it pass; we are part of the stream.

The Star River is an exploration of that profound connection. Hosted by Eric Loyd - the Astropotamus - this show bridges the gap between the technical and the transcendent. Through the lenses of astrophotographers, the melodies of musicians, and the insights of celestial explorers, we examine how we are inextricably linked to the cosmos.

Every journey begins with a ritual: sharing a drink to ground ourselves in the present before we wade into the infinite. Whether we are discussing the physics of light or the feeling of being under the stars in the desert, we seek to understand this current that moves through us all.

You are already in the River. Join us as we navigate its bends, its shallows, and its sudden falls. Raise a glass, find your place in the flow, and let’s see where the River takes us.

  • The Egg Hunter with Katja Lindblom

    The Egg Hunter with Katja Lindblom
    Feb 24 2026

    In this first journey down the Star River, I am joined by Swedish astronomer and artist Katja Lindblom. We don't just talk about data; we explore the currents of our own histories. We trace the flow from her days as an "Angry Astronomer" fighting astronomical misinformation to her true calling as an "Egg Hunter." Together, we look at how the River of Time is fed by the small tributaries of our past. How a father's books become inspiration for us to follow. How even a "crappy" childhood telescope can act as an anchor in the rushing current of the universe.

    "I'm raising my glass to you and to the connection that we have to this River of Space and Time and to the conversation that we're going to start here today. Cheers!"

    We reflect on the Artemis mission, not just as a technical feat, but as a long-awaited moment where the human reflection on the lunar surface finally becomes more inclusive. And, in a moment where the river meanders into the truly strange, we consider if the entire expanse of space and time might be nothing more than the indigestion of a gigantic celestial pony.
