"A deep space interstellar journey on electronic waves"
This is the current week's one hour program from Hearts of Space Radio Show, for the weekend of July 19-20, 2013. Music has been split to MP3s at VBR and voiceovers have been suppressed, as usual. The program notes are included in the tracklist with this torrent.

Program Notes by Stephen Hill, Producer
In summer, the energy of the sun seems more intense. But the sun is a nuclear furnace that never stops, and the sun's corona is so hot that high energy particles there reach escape velocity, flying into space at over a million miles an hour in a stream called the solar wind.

Made of ionized atomic particles and magnetic fields from the sun's corona, the solar wind is spun into a spiral as the sun rotates every 27 days. Here on earth, variations in the sun's magnetic field carried by the solar wind create auroras — the northern and southern lights — the plasma tails of comets, and geomagnetic storms that can knock out power grids. On this transmission of Hearts of Space...another interstellar journey on electronic waves, on a program called SOLAR WINDS.
