[Q&A] Discovering Exomoons, Gravitational Lenses for JWST and Hubble, Jupiter's Core Mass

How can neutrinos arrive faster than light? How did OSIRIS-REx get samples of an asteroid? Can we extract energy from gravitational waves? When will we be able to discover our first exomoon of an exoplanet? How can we measure the mass of Jupiter's core? Answering all these questions and more in this week's Q&A show.
