Episode #22 Perfect Choreography
from Science & You Hosted by Dr. Michael Windheuser, Ph.D.
The process of human conception, development and birth requires the perfect choreography of many factors if there is any hope of the infant arriving alive in her mother's arms. Similarly, sending a very complex vehicle to explore the surface of Mars, some 39 million miles (or more) away from earth, requires the landing sequence to be fully automated. If the launch and landing of the Curiosity and Perseverance vehicles on Mars required many years of intense engineering and careful planning by highly skilled NASA engineers to ensure their success, why would the much more complex process of human development and birth need no designer at all?
