Have you ever wondered how astronomers discover something they've never seen before?
In this episode of Astrophysics for All, I'm joined by Dr. Kishalay De, Assistant Professor of Astronomy at Columbia University, whose research explores some of the universe's most spectacular "cosmic fireworks"—from exploding stars and stellar mergers to the first convincing evidence of a star swallowing one of its own planets.
We talk about what it's like to stumble across a discovery no one was expecting, why astronomers use everything from infrared light to gravitational waves to study the universe, and how the next generation of observatories could uncover phenomena we've never even imagined. We also discuss the growing role of AI in astronomy, the importance of strong foundations in physics, and why some of the biggest scientific breakthroughs begin with curiosity rather than certainty.
Whether you're interested in astronomy, physics, or simply curious about how discoveries are made, I hope you enjoy the conversation!
