Researchers in the Northeast have poured 65,000 liters of red-dyed sodium hydroxide into the Gulf of Maine in order to conduct a geoengineering project which, they claim, might combat climate change.This trial—officially called the LOC-NESS project—took place last August 50 miles off the coast of Massachusetts. Scientists from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution poured several tons of the bright red chemical into the water over the course of four days. The thinking is that by making the ocean more alkaline, it will suck in more CO2 from the atmosphere, and turn it into baking soda.Let's go through the details together.

Science progresses through breakthrough discoveries, but behind many of the field's greatest advancements lies a darker history of scientific dysfunction—hostile competition, information hoarding, and criticism that has silenced revolutionary thinkers. From Alexander Gordon being forced to flee Aberdeen after proving doctors spread deadly infections, to Ignaz Semmelweis being fired and exiled for insisting doctors wash their hands between autopsies and deliveries, brilliant scientists have paid devastating personal prices for challenging medical orthodoxies. The pattern repeats across centuries: Pierre Louis was attacked for using statistics to prove bloodletting was useless, Joseph Lister faced ridicule for suggesting "invisible germs" caused infections, and Jean Toussaint suffered a nervous breakdown after Louis Pasteur appropriated his anthrax vaccine discovery. These cautionary tales reveal how the scientific community often becomes so attached to established paradigms that it rejects—or even destroys—those who dare to question consensus, no matter how strong their evidence. Today's guest is Matt Kaplan, author of “I Told You So!: Scientists Who Were Ridiculed, Exiled, and Imprisoned for Being Right.” He has spent two decades observing dysfunction across all scientific disciplines and now calls for fundamental reform in his book "I Told You So!" He argues that personality and social connections are weighted too heavily over actual ideas and skill, with good scientists losing grants and promotions simply because they lack charisma or fail to make the right political connections. Kaplan explores how even paleontology has its bullies, pointing to cases like Alison Moyer's discovery of organic material in dinosaur bones being met with hostility for challenging established orthodoxies. Through these stories of scientists who were ultimately vindicated—from Gordon's germ theory to Semmelweis's handwashing protocols—we see how science advances faster when contrarians are allowed to have their say and when the community prioritizes rigorous debate over comfortable consensus.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What is consciousness, really? We don't know. Scientists aren't sure. Philosophers can't agree. All we have is the fact that it feels like something to be you right now. Beyond that, human consciousness remains a complete mystery. Sean talks with Michael Pollan about his new book, A World Appears, which is about what we do and don't know about consciousness and why it continues to be one of the great miracles of nature. They get into why consciousness has proven so hard to define, whether the self is real or just a useful fiction, what psychedelics and meditation reveal about the mind, and why even serious neuroscientists are starting to question strict materialism. Along the way, they wander into plant intelligence, AI psychosis, ego death, and the unsettling possibility that not knowing might actually be the right place to land.

Until 1967, units of time were scientifically measured by astronomical patterns: the spin of the earth and its revolution around the sun. But over the centuries, a problem emerged. The earth is actually slowing down in its orbit. Scientists discovered that the unit of the second is longer than it used to be. Gradual though this is, since the days of Christ, the world has “lost” a full three hours of measured time. Of course, God created the ways we measure time: the astronomy of orbits and revolutions. Scientists’ calculations may be squishier than we’d thought, but we can stand firmly in Peter’s words: “With the Lord a day is like a thousand years” (2 Peter 3:8). He is arguing against doubters who complained that Jesus hadn’t returned yet. “The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness.” (v. 9). God works in His own time for His own purposes. There’s more: God’s “timing” is born out of His love: “He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish” (v. 9). Jesus will return, and God wants everyone to have the opportunity to come to Him. This is an expression of His love. Meanwhile, we’re “to make every effort to be found spotless” (v. 14). Time, God, and love are linked together: In these last days God’s love is never squishy. It’s the one sure thing.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for March 13, 2026 is: immure • ih-MYOOR • verb To immure something is to enclose it within or as if within walls. Immure is also sometimes used synonymously with imprison. // Scientists at the research station in Antarctica are immured by the frozen wild that surrounds them. See the entry > Examples: "The Torlonia collection, which Alessandro Torlonia moved into a private museum in Rome in 1875, went into hiding in the early 1940s. ... Disputes among family members and with the government left the marbles hidden away, gathering dust and grime. For all those years scholars had to beg and bribe to get in. One government official, desperate to see what gems the Torlonia prince had immured, resorted to dressing up as a cleaner." — Jason Farago, The New York Times, 16 Apr. 2025 Did you know? Like mural, immure comes from murus, a Latin noun meaning "wall." Immure came to English by way of the Medieval Latin verb immurare, formed from murus and the prefix in- (meaning "in" or "within"). Immure, which first appeared in English in the late 16th century, literally means "to wall in" or "to enclose with a wall," but it has extended meanings as well. In addition to senses meaning "to imprison" and "to entomb," the word sometimes has broader applications, essentially meaning "to shut in" or "to confine." One might remark, for example, that a very studious acquaintance spends most of her time "immured in the library."

You keep hearing about AI, but nobody is telling you how it actually fits into a biotech career or a job search. That changes today.In this episode, Carina sits down with Heather Karner, a bench scientist with a background in RNA biology who works alongside machine learning researchers in the Bay Area. Heather is actively job searching and has quietly become the go-to AI resource for her lab and her network, not because she is a tech expert, but because she started experimenting and never stopped.Together they share the exact AI use cases they are running right now: a personalized daily brief that flagged Gilead and Eli Lilly RNA acquisitions before they hit LinkedIn, a literature review workflow built for scientists, how to use AI as a tireless teacher for coding and lab protocols, AI note taking that surfaced 10 action items from a 10-minute meeting, and how to turn a rambling brain dump into a clear, professional message.

How you think about getting older might be more powerful than you realize. Scientists have uncovered an unexpected connection between people's beliefs about aging and what happens to them as the years go by. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12150226/ We're often warned not to reveal too much about ourselves. Oversharing can make people uncomfortable, right? Maybe. But Harvard Business School professor Leslie John argues the bigger problem may actually be the opposite — sharing too little. In her book Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing (https://amzn.to/3ME0EVt), she explains how thoughtfully sharing personal thoughts, experiences, and vulnerabilities can strengthen relationships, build trust, and even improve professional success. Humans have a strange relationship with technology. Some innovations instantly become essential while others quietly disappear. New technology can spark excitement, fear, resistance, and creativity all at once. Vanessa Chang, Director of Programs at Leonardo, the International Society for the Arts, Sciences, and Technology and author of The Body Digital: A Brief History of Humans and Machines from Cuckoo Clocks to ChatGPT (https://amzn.to/4cqHjBE), explores how people historically absorb new technologies — and how those tools reshape the way we interact with each other and the world. When you buy new clothes, it feels natural to wear them right away. After all, they're brand new. But “new” doesn't necessarily mean clean. In fact, clothing can go through quite a journey before it reaches your closet — one that may make you think twice before wearing it straight off the rack. https://www.southernliving.com/should-you-wash-new-clothes-before-wearing-11885557 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Don't keep settling for clothes that don't last!

Why do some world-changing ideas get ignored, attacked, or buried for years before anyone takes them seriously? Michael Shermer sits down with The Economist science correspondent Matt Kaplan to discuss the scientists who got there first and paid the price. They talk about why institutions resist new ideas, why careers can depend on defending the status quo, and why being right is often not enough. They discuss figures like Katalin Karikó, whose work on mRNA was dismissed long before it helped transform modern medicine, and Oliver Wendell Holmes, who faced fierce backlash for arguing that doctors themselves were spreading deadly infections. This is a fascinating look at what happens when evidence collides with ego, reputation, and scientific orthodoxy. It's also a conversation about truth, status, intellectual courage, and the deeply human side of science. Matt Kaplan is a science correspondent at The Economist. He has written about everything from paleontology and parasites to virology and viticulture over the course of two decades. His new book is I Told You So! Scientists Who Were Ridiculed, Exiled, and Imprisoned for Being Right.

Engineered microbes could transform how we fight climate change. Scientists are modifying ancient ocean microorganisms to capture carbon dioxide and produce materials using only sunlight and seawater. These tiny organisms may become living factories capable of creating fuels, plastics, and industrial chemicals without relying on fossil fuels. Cyanobacteria are at the center of this research. These photosynthetic microbes helped oxygenate the Earth billions of years ago, and now scientists are exploring how they can be engineered to produce biofuels, biodegradable plastics, and sustainable industrial compounds. Synthetic biology is opening the door to manufacturing systems powered entirely by sunlight and carbon dioxide. Synthetic biology could reshape how humanity produces materials. If these microbial systems scale successfully, they could reduce emissions from the chemical and plastics industries while capturing carbon from the atmosphere. But engineering living systems also raises questions about safety, environmental impacts, and responsible oversight. Listen to the full episode to learn how ocean microbes could become one of the most powerful climate tools scientists are developing.

Police in London, Ontario are searching for someone they say was driving around downtown handing out free drugs -- and triggering a wave of overdoses on the doorstep of a local outreach centre. History in the unmaking. American and Israeli strikes have severely damaged at least four cultural and historical landmarks in Iran. An Iranian-Canadian scholar she says it's heartbreaking to watch -- but eerily familiar. When two young women left a cinema in the early 70s, they found an abandoned newborn. And now, half a century later, they've all reunited. A Norwegian researcher has not-so-fond childhood memories of getting his tongue stuck to a frozen pole. Now that he's all grown up, he's delving into the science -- to tackle tundra tongue. Colm Dalton can tell you what makes a real Irish pub -- because he's been to more than a hundred of them on four continents, as he attempts to drink at every single one on Earth. Scientists discover that we blink unconsciously to the beat of music -- although so far, they've only tested that theory on the music of Johann Sebastian Bach. As It Happens, the Thursday Edition. Radio that thinks they should start thinking outside the Bach...s.

In this episode I sit down with Dr. Mike Brasher, Senior Waterfowl Scientist for Ducks Unlimited, for a deep dive into one of the most debated topics in waterfowl hunting right now. Mallard numbers are down, pond counts are below average, and hunters across the country are asking the same question. Should seasons and limits be reduced? Dr. Brasher walks us through the science behind duck population surveys, how breeding population estimates are actually conducted, and how Adaptive Harvest Management (AHM) determines the frameworks for duck seasons in North America. We also discuss the ongoing debate about compensatory vs additive mortality, whether harvest is impacting duck populations, how pond counts affect productivity, and why the current regulatory system still supports liberal seasons despite declining mallard numbers. This conversation covers the full picture of how waterfowl populations are monitored and how hunting regulations are set. Topics covered include: • How duck population surveys are conducted • What the breeding population estimate actually represents • The role of the May pond count • Why habitat drives duck populations • The science behind Adaptive Harvest Management • Compensatory vs additive mortality • Whether harvest impacts duck populations • Why we are still in liberal seasons If you want to better understand how duck populations are managed and what the future of waterfowl seasons may look like, this episode is packed with valuable insight.

According to unsubstantiated reports, it was about 50 years ago that Chinese immigrants to the United States brought some freshwater clams with them. The clams were eaten for good luck on Chinese New Year. What is substantiated is that today the clam is found in at least 35 states. That's an amazing amount of territory to cover in only 50 years for a creature that only has one foot.The spread of the Asian clam costs the industry over a billion dollars per year to clean up. Lacking enemies, it reproduces rapidly and clogs the water intake line which industry uses to cool its equipment. Scientists began to wonder how the creature could travel so rapidly even going from lake to lake and stream to stream.What scientists learned was that when the Asian calm encounters a current, it sets sail. Lifting off with its one foot, it releases a transparent film that catches the current like a sail. It sails off using its foot like a rudder. This explains not only why it spread so rapidly down rivers, but also how the clam could spread from one body of water to another during floods.The Asian clam's ability to sail is a clever design. So, too, is the balance of nature which prevents creatures from over-populating. Unfortunately, the Asian clam in the United States has few enemies to keep it under control. If evolution were true, such a lack of balance would be the rule in nature. The balance that exists, keeping each creature fed but not over-populated in their natural settings, is but another witness to the fact of the Creator.Psalm 104:24-25"O Lord, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches. So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts."Prayer: Dear heavenly Father, the balance You have designed between all living things, so that they can make their living and yet do not run out of control, shows Your continuing love toward the fallen creation. Help me to be a clear and specific witness to Your love for us in Jesus Christ. Amen. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/1232/29?v=20251111

Avoid Energy Vampires & Spiritual Care Team Talk PodcastFIVE PRIMARY POINTS of the PODCASTAdventure and Taking Chances Build VitalityDr. Mishra recounts a spontaneous trip to Death Valley sparked by the rare “super bloom” of wildflowers. Despite the long drive and minimal planning, the experience became transformative. The key lesson is that some of life's best memories arise from taking reasonable risks and embracing adventure, even when circumstances are imperfect.Three Life Lessons from the Death Valley Experience* Don't underestimate your ability to do difficult things* Be a “super connector” when traveling or meeting new people* Serendipity often leads to powerful and memorable experiencesPreparation Converts Opportunity into PerformanceUsing the quote “Chance favors the prepared mind” (Louis Pasteur), the podcast emphasizes that opportunities rarely translate into success without preparation. Preparation—through learning, practice, and discipline—allows people to capitalize on unexpected opportunities when they arise.Historical Examples Illustrate the Power of PreparationThe shared lesson: consistent preparation builds skill, resilience, and eventual excellence.* Louis Pasteur achieved breakthroughs through years of scientific preparation.* The Beatles dramatically improved after thousands of hours performing in Hamburg clubs.* Muhammad Ali trained relentlessly despite disliking training.* Steve Martin spent years honing his craft before becoming famous.Emerging Science: “Battery Transplants” for CellsThe podcast concludes with fascinating new research on mitochondrial transplantation. Scientists transferred healthy mitochondria into mesenchymal stromal cells and observed:* Increased cellular energy production* Faster cell growth* Greater resilience to stress and toxinsThis early basic science research suggests potential future therapies for diseases linked to mitochondrial dysfunction, including heart and neurodegenerative diseases.Copyright VyVerse, LLC.

Chris's mom, Yun Cha, and dad met at the grocery shop that she and her sister owned nearby to the US military base. After years of  moving base to base in the US and Europe, Yun Cha still in her twenties, moved  back to the United States with her family where she was trying to immerse herself into the American culture.After time,  trying to hold onto both cultures simultaneously, speaking Korean at home and English outside the home,  inevitably proved impossible. Yun Cha selflessly gave up speaking her native tongue to her children to help them assimilate back into their American culture.Chris says "my mom was a great dreamer and she dreamed of such wonderful things.   If you do what you want, you'll never work a day in your life." Chris says that was great until he wanted to work in the theatre industry. Suddenly mom was championing for her son to be a doctor or lawyer and not the theatre rat that Chris wanted to be.While living overseas, Chris and his older sister were immersed in the local culture regardless of what country they were living. That was one of many benefits of the American schools on the base. All the children were introduced to the history, arts and  entertainment of the surrounding area. They were exposed to so much more than their school books.Eventually Chris's mother did go back to visit her remaining family in Korea. It was then that Yun Cha was able to get a recovered photograph of her mom, something that she longed for for many years. It brought her great comfort to finally see the photo of her mom again.Chris's theatrical work, slightly on pause because of the pandemic: "Odd Lot "Improv Company and "Savannah Shakers" Shakespeare Theatre Company Podcast: "The Most Haunted City on Earth" -the telling of ghosts stories around Savannah.

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore sits down with Chris Mirabile, founder of NOVOS, for an inspiring conversation about the science of longevity, the importance of preventative health, and the journey from personal health crises to building an impactful company in the supplement space. Chris shares his compelling story of surviving a brain tumor at age 16 which launched his lifelong passion for optimizing long-term health, and reveals how that experience shaped his unique view on wellness and aging. The conversation goes into the challenges of building credibility in a noisy market, and the rigorous scientific process (and team) behind NOVOS' approach. Expect to hear insights on biological aging versus chronological age, the steps NOVOS takes with clinical trials and advisory board selection, strategies for building a mission-driven company, and how to stay authentic amid the wellness industry's hype. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a health enthusiast, or just curious about the future of aging, this episode offers a blend of personal conviction, actionable business advice, and leading-edge science. Regarding a recent Mayo Clinic endorsement Chris says, "Some of the practitioners, including the head of longevity medicine at Mayo Clinic Arizona said, 'I want to recommend this to my patients. I want it readily available at the Mayo Clinic store.' So that, that is something that is really symbolic." Key themes discussed Personal journey inspiring longevity focus Evolution of health terminology: Wellness, anti-aging, longevity Human psychology, short-term vs. long-term health goals Building a respected scientific advisory board Competition in the longevity and supplement industry Scientific validation and clinical trials for NOVOS Measuring and reducing biological age with epigenetic tests A Few Key Takeaways:  1.Personal Health Crisis Sparked a Lifelong Passion: Chris shared how being diagnosed with a brain tumor at age 16 completely reshaped his outlook on health, shifting his priorities from aesthetics and performance to long-term health, disease avoidance, and optimal well-being. 2. The Language of Longevity Matters: Both Pete and Chris discussed the evolution of words used in the industry. Mirabile isn't a fan of "anti-aging," and prefers "longevity," emphasizing a holistic, forward-looking approach to health focusing on long-term outcomes rather than quick fixes. 3. Bridging Science and Supplements with Credibility: Chris described how NOVOS set itself apart by investing years into R&D, building relationships with renowned scientists (like Dr. George Church), and producing clinical trials for their products, standing in contrast to the more hype-driven supplement companies. 4. The Importance of Short-term and Long-term Benefits: A key insight Chris stressed is that compliance is crucial. NOVOS products are formulated to offer both immediate benefits (so users feel a difference) and actual long-term health impacts, supporting both "healthspan" and "lifespan." 5. Biological Age Testing and Results: NOVOS offers an epigenetic biological age test called Novos Age, which Mirabile says is one of the most scientifically grounded tools available. Initial data suggests that consistent use of NOVOS supplements can help users "slow down" or even reduce their biological aging rate.

Replicating Nature  As the effects of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions become increasingly well understood, researchers like Dr. Peidong Yang at UC Berkeley are developing technologies that address human-caused climate change with a nature-based approach. Dr. Yang's artificial leaves capture sunlight and carbon dioxide and produce C2, a key precursory ingredient in the production of many everyday items.    Diving Deeper  Though synthetic fuels have been manufactured for over a century - by combining carbon monoxide and hydrogen - these new structures may be able to generate fuel in a more sustainable way by harnessing solar energy. The artificial leaves produce ethylene and ethane, showing that artificial leaves can create hydrocarbons; previously, similar structures have only been able to separate water into oxygen and hydrogen.  A few innovations make this process possible. One is the catalyst, a microscopic copper structure, flower-like in appearance. According to another scientist working on the project, Virgil Andrei, the copper nanoflowers can be adjusted, based on the desired outcome: “Depending on the nanostructure of the copper catalyst you can get wildly different products.” Another innovation occurs on the side of the device opposite the nanoflowers -    Benefits  The benefits for climate change are two fold. First, these artificial leaves can remove CO2 that's already been released into the atmosphere by mimicking what natural leaves do through photosynthesis. These artificial leaves uptake CO2 from the air, and use it to make all sorts of different chemicals that can be utilized to create fuel.  The second major benefit is this technology is an opportunity to revolutionize the current chemical industry. Right now, the chemical industry is powered by fossil fuels converted into the liquid fuel that powers our society. Instead, this artificial photosynthesis allows scientists to create those same very useful chemicals from the CO2 being uptaken by the artificial leaves without any added emissions in the process. Though the carbon will be reemitted once this fuel is used, it works out to be a net carbon-neutral system because the cycle continues—the artificial leaves will reuptake this CO2 as well. So, this net carbon-neutral system is drastically better than the current fossil fuel based system driving our climate crisis.    Issues of Scale Though this artificial leaf technology is promising for a number of future applications, it's not ready to be scaled yet. Though the trial system worked, it's just one step towards developing a commercially viable product. Another scientist, Yanwei Lum, emphasizes that, “The performance is still not sufficient for practical applications.” Once the leaves' durability and efficiency is improved, they will be adoptable for fuel production. Andrei is optimistic that this step forward could come in the next five to ten years.    Yang's take on the future of Artificial Leaves  Currently, the costs and energy needed for the technology are relatively high just because of how new it is. But Yang is confident that they will be able to bring the costs done, as well as the energy needed for the actual chemistry to happen. He also notes that for this to actually revolutionize our fuel production, this technology needs to be implemented at a massive scale. He hopes to see policies mandating new carbon capture technology in the conversion industry down the road.    About our Guest Peidong Yang is a chemist, material scientist, and businessman. He is the S.K. and Angela Chan Distinguished Professor of Energy, as well as a Professor of Chemistry and a Professor of Materials Science at the University of California, Berkeley. Dr. Yang researches materials chemistry, solid state chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and physical chemistry, focusing on low-dimensional nanoscopic building blocks that are used to assemble complex architectures with novel chemical and physical properties.   Further Reading Andrei et al., Perovskite-driven solar C2 hydrocarbon synthesis from CO2 Ashleigh Papp (Berkeley Lab), Scientists develop artificial leaf that uses sunlight Department of Energy, Perovskite solar cells  Carly Kay (MIT), This artificial leaf makes hydrocarbons out of carbon dioxide   For a transcript of this episode, please visit climatebreak.org/photosynthesis-through-artificial-leaves-with-dr-peidong-yang

I think the cultural perspective on optimism has decreased, even to the point of it being naive. It seems in vogue to be pessimistic and even cynical. The definition of optimism is, hopefulness and confidence about the future or the successful outcome of something. So let's consider the converse. In dealing with a challenge in your life, do you think your chances of being resilient and coming out with a best case scenario would be better served with a perspective and attitude of hopelessness and doubt? I thought of a surgeon. Would I rather my surgeon have hopefulness and confidence in my procedure, or hopelessness and doubt? Yes, we want them both to have skill. But I like this juxtaposition. My guest in this episode is Dr. Deepika Chopra. Deepika is a behavioral scientist and psychologist who specializes in what she has coined as, "evidence-based manifestation," which draws from behavioral science, emotional fitness, neuroscience, and ancient wisdom to build modern tools for resilience and joy. She holds a doctorate in clinical health psychology and completed a double postdoctoral fellowship at both the University of California at Los Angeles and Cedars Sinai Medical Center. She completed her formal dissertation on the topic of optimism, positive sensory visualization, and the connection to optimal well-being. She is a recurring guest on the TODAY Show, and her work has also been featured in Forbes, Harper's Bazaar, VOGUE, GOOP, Variety, E!, and more. She has led workshops for companies like Google, Amazon, and Amex, and has delivered keynotes at events including the Aspen Ideas Festival and The Atlantic's In Pursuit of Happiness. But more than any of those accolades what I intrigued myself most with, is she has a sone with a severe chronic illness. An illness that is likely to see his life cut very short. When we first started our discussion I asked her how he was doing, and Deepika said he was doing ok. Today. She lives day by day with his very existence in the balance. And she has devoted herself to optimism. So much so that she's now know as “The Optimism Dr.” Deepika has a brand new book titled, The Power of Real Optimism: A Practical, Science-Based Guide to Staying Resilient, Curious, and Open Even When Life Is Hard.

As NASA's Artemis program promises to take us back to the moon for the first time in fifty years, we consider what it means that as many as 10% of Americans don't believe we went there in the first place. Why, despite all the evidence, has the faked moon landing conspiracy persisted? We explore why this falsehood has such staying power and what it reveals about our relationship with science and its findings.   Meanwhile, lunar science continues unabated. Scientists open a lunar soil sample that's been vacuumed sealed for a half-century and receive a blast of four and a half billion-year-old solar wind.  Guests: Peter Knight – professor of American Studies, English and American Studies and conspiracy expert at the University of Manchester, U.K. Ryan Zeigler – planetary scientist and NASA's Lunar Sample Curator at Johnson Space Center Featuring music by Dewey Dellay and Jun Miyake Big Picture Science is part of the Airwave Media podcast network. Please contact advertising@airwavemedia.com to inquire about advertising on Big Picture Science.

Scientists exposed mice to extremely powerful electric fields and discovered something unexpected: power frequency fields actually improved memory performance, while static fields had no effect. In this episode, I break down a fascinating comparative study that reveals how frequency matters as much as field strength when it comes to biological effects. The researchers used field strengths of thirty-five thousand volts per meter -- far stronger than typical environmental exposures -- and found cognitive enhancement rather than impairment. In This Episode Why power frequency fields enhanced mouse memory while static fields didn't What thirty-five thousand volts per meter means in real-world context How frequency characteristics affect biological systems differently Featured Study A comparative study on influences of static electric field and power frequency electric field on cognition in mice.

It’s time for your questions too. Akiva wants to know why your tummy gets smaller when you breathe in, and John Bridges from Leicester University answers Nicolas' question: How are asteroids made? Dangerous Dan introduces us to something a little different this week: the super-Earth exoplanet TOI-1452b, a strange and fascinating world far beyond our Solar System. Then in Battle of the Sciences, Mark Grabowski from Liverpool John Moores University steps into the ring to make the case for palaeoanthropology, the science that studies ancient humans and our evolutionary ancestors. Plus, Harry and Terry stumble across the asteroid belt in this week’s Space Cadets adventure as they continue their accidental journey through space. What do we learn about? How asteroids form in space Why NASA is changing its plans for Moon missions Why the history of writing might be older than we thought Why a sea turtle population boom may not be entirely good news What happens to your body when you breathe in The strange super-Earth exoplanet TOI-1452b How scientists study ancient humans and our ancestors All that and more on this week’s Science Quest!Join Fun Kids Podcasts+: https://funkidslive.com/plusSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Teens aren't getting enough sleep! And a two-decade study suggests it's getting worse. Scientists found that the number of high schoolers getting insufficient sleep — less than seven hours a night — has increased from 69% to 77%. The throughline? There wasn't one. Teens had bad sleep habits across most demographics, including race, gender and grade level. The findings were published this week in the journal JAMA.Interested in more science behind recent headlines?

Jake, Travis, Jack and Liv examine Jeffrey Epstein's long-running obsession with science, eugenics, transhumanism, and elite legitimacy. After Travis makes a quick tour through the conspiracy sludge surrounding the files, Jack reveals what the new documents reveal about Epstein's ties to prominent researchers, Harvard, cloning fantasies, designer-baby schemes, and the strange overlap between scientific prestige and grotesque ideology. Liv unpacks how right-wing figures have tried to spin Epstein's contacts with doctors and academics into anti-trans conspiracy bait, separating lurid fiction from what the documents actually show. Jake offers a couple of questionable movie ideas.
