How Plate Tectonics Gave Us Seahorses
[…] How did seahorses — one of the ocean’s worst swimmers — spread around the globe? And where did they come from in the first place? Thanks to Franz Anthony (http://franzanth.com) for the incredible syngnathid reconstructions used in this episode! … Continue reading
A Molecule-Thick Coating Changes What a Surface Does, Thanks to Nanoscience
This episode was made in partnership with The Kavli Prize. The Kavli Prize honors scientists for breakthroughs in astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience — transforming our understanding of the big, the small, and the complex. From removing glare in windows to … Continue reading
How cold can it get?
Cryogenics is the science of cold. But how cold is cold? In this video, Fermilab scientist Dr. Don Lincoln tells us about some of the most amazing achievements in cryogenic science. And there is no truth to the rumor that … Continue reading
Why are the northern lights always the SAME GREEN colour?
[…] Taylor Swift on her track “Snow on the Beach” claims she “searched aurora borealis green” – as an astrophysicist and Swiftie I’m here to let you know the aurora are green because of Oxygen in our atmosphere. To understand … Continue reading

Are We All Actually Archaea?
[…] The unexpected discovery of an entirely new domain of life was pretty huge and surprising – even if archaea do just look like bacteria. But, in recent years, it’s been their connection to us that’s turned out to be … Continue reading
The 2nd Quantum Revolution — Nobel Prize in Physics 2022
[…] Today I speculate about the Nobel Prize in Physics, and explain why I think it’s overdue to go to Aspect, Clauser, and Zeilinger. The probably coolest thing to have come out of their work is quantum teleportation. At 10 … Continue reading
How Physicists Proved The Universe Isn’t Real – Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 EXPLAINED
Alain Aspect, John Clauser and Anton Zeilinger conducted ground breaking experiments using entangled quantum states, where two particles behave like a single unit even when they are separated. Their results have cleared the way for new technology based upon quantum … Continue reading
