In this chaotic episode of Open Orbit, Hunter Pratt and special guest Raven face off in a game of Fact or Fiction. One of us drops a space-related statement, some true, some absolute nonsense, and the other has to decide whether it’s real astronomy or a total fabrication.
Expect unexpected science, questionable confidence, real facts, and plenty of laughing at ourselves.

Hosted by Hunter Pratt, Open Orbit blends genuine astronomy and science conversations with humor, storytelling, and the personalities that make science feel human. Produced in collaboration with KVCU Radio 1190 at CU Boulder.

Episode 8 is now streaming!
In this hilarious and chaotic episode of Open Orbit, Hunter Pratt and returning guest Max Carlin go head-to-head to assemble the most diabolical team of astronomers ever imagined. Each selects five scientists whose brilliance is matched only by their bad attitudes—astronomers so ruthless they’d make a kid cry. A hilarious, chaotic showdown of egos and legends.
