FRÜHERE EPISODEN 🔗
Quantum mechanics has always included mind-bending ideas. But the concept of quantum entanglement, famously termed "spooky at a distance" by Albert Einstein in a 1947 letter, seemed to challenge the limits of belief. It remained well on the edges of modern physics until John Stewart Bell's 1964 pap…
Sloppy by modern standards — and maybe even those back then — a 1955 article on the placebo effect by Harvard anesthesiologist Henry K. Beecher was nonetheless remarkable and influential. It paved the way for sounder drug trials and pushed scientists to better understand how we process pain. To exp…
The fossil Archaeopteryx forever changed our understanding of dinosaurs and the origin of birds, but it took a century after its discovery and a one-page paper to shift scientific consensus.
Here's the story of that landmark 1973 article by American paleontologist John Ostrom, and published in …
A key report to President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965 warned that humankind was "unwittingly conducting a vast geophysical experiment" through the burning of fossil fuels and a consequent buildup of "the invisible pollutant" — carbon dioxide — in the atmosphere. Here's the story of what happened next…
Serendipitous discoveries led to drugs like Prozac and to new insights into the physical basis of this debilitating disorder. But scientists continue to search for deeper understandings and therapies that will bring relief to those who still struggle.
PODCAST: They started out so small, one could fit on the palm of your hand, but to make groundbreaking discoveries, physicists had to think really big — as in, vast machines with the power and capacity to reveal the tiniest building blocks of our universe.
Digging — quite literally — into our planet's past to study its paleoclimate has shed light on bygone ice ages and hints at trouble ahead for our now-warming planet.
The journey to understanding these critically important molecules, in their thousands of different flavors, began with a chance discovery. Today, after decades of painstaking lab work and dizzying technological leaps, the field of protein science is exploding.
Not that long ago, scientists found evidence that our Sun wasn't unique — other stars have their own orbiting bodies. It was a discovery centuries in the making. What does this mean for Earth today and our place in the universe? (Season 2/Episode. 2)
