<description>&lt;body&gt; &lt;p&gt;We sat around our virtual studio to chat with Queensland-based astronomer Jonti Horner, who works on planetary dynamics – both within our own solar system, and around others. As well as discovering the impact of giant planet dynamics on habitable planets like earth, we also discussed the importance of aboriginal astronomy in Australia, his various media appearances, and Jonti’s namesake asteroid. Finally, Jonti adopts a special planet into our hall-of-fame list. Listen to find out more!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do you have a question we didn’t ask? &lt;/strong&gt;Join in the discussion in the comments below, and find us on &lt;a href="http://exocast.bsky.social"&gt;bluesky&lt;/a&gt;.
