4. Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe Discusses Life in Space with George Howard and Becket Fusik

from The Cosmic Tusk

Hey folks, welcome back to another epic episode of The Foxhole Podcast. With us, we've got Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe and Becket Fusik, with an incredible conversation about life in space, the universe as a whole, and everything in between. Dr. Chandra Wickramasinghe is a massive brain when it comes to astrobiology. Alongside Sir Fred Hoyle, he is one of the pioneers of panspermia. He theorized that life was floating all around in space in the form of Cosmic Dust and he turned out to be correct! With him is Becket Fusik, who is all over the marketing for Cosmic Summit and ready to chat about life in space.Dr. Chandra Wickramasignhe is here with the whole enchilada. With years of kicking ass in the astrobiology field alongside Sir Fred Hoyle, he’s shedding light on the ins and outs of life in space. The guy knows his stuff and is overall a great guy who is happy to share it with all of us. We get into some out-there stuff, like the microscopic organisms living on the International Space Station (ISS), what Cosmic Dust really is, proof of life on Mars, the effect that religion has on science, the euro-centric idea of humans being the center of the universe, viruses from space, and a whole lot more. This is an exciting episode and one of my favorites so far. If you're an aspiring astrobiologist, microbiologist, or just someone who loves mysteries of the universe, this episode will get your gears turning.
