Is this year's Stirling Prize shortlist the least interesting ever? And why are astronomers up in arms about a plan to launch a giant mirror into space?

 

This episode begins with Dezeen features editor Nat Barker and design editor Jennifer Hahn discussing the plans by a US startup to light up streets at night by reflecting sunbeams from a satellite.

 

Then, for part two, they're joined by Dezeen editor Tom Ravenscroft to debate this year's shortlist for the UK's best new building.

 

Finally, there's been an update in the story about what we previously called "the strangest architecture competition ever", but is it still as bonkers?
