GIỚI THIỆU VỀ TẬP NÀY
In 1912, a meteorologist with no geology training proposed that continents drift across Earth's surface—and was ridiculed by the scientific establishment for 50 years. Alfred Wegener's revolutionary idea about our restless planet would eventually reshape our understanding of earthquakes, evolution, and life itself, but only after his death in the Greenland ice.

This episode reconstructs the four-way race to decode the double h…
In 1928, Alexander Fleming came back from vacation to find a ruined petri dish — and almost threw it away. What stopped him, and what he saw in that contaminated culture, would eventually save an estimated 200 million lives, but the path from a cluttered London lab bench to a working antibiotic inv…
In 1908, a woman with no formal physics degree was cataloguing stars in a Harvard basement when she noticed something that would shatter our understanding of how big the universe actually is — and then watched a man take credit for it. This episode traces how Henrietta Swan Leavitt's discovery of t…
In the 1920s, Henrietta Swan Leavitt was hired to measure stars — not study them. But buried inside her meticulous data was a mathematical relationship so powerful it would shatter humanity's understanding of the size of the cosmos and hand Edwin Hubble the ruler he needed to discover that the univ…
Alexander Fleming gets the credit. But the real story of penicillin is a decade of neglect, a wartime deadline, and a rotating cast of forgotten chemists racing to turn a laboratory curiosity into the drug that changed what it meant to survive. This week, we trace the distance between 'discovered' …
