Exploring Alien Science with Daniel Whiteson!
from Part-Time Genius · host iHeartPodcasts and Kaleidoscope
What if aliens came to earth… and helped us unlock the mysteries of the universe? That’s the premise of our pal Daniel Whiteson’s new book, Do Aliens Speak Physics?, and today on the show he tells us how thinking through this wacky scenario can tell us a lot about ourselves, our science, and the boundaries of knowledge. Plus: Why sci-fi is just as important as sci-non-fi. Buy Do Aliens Speak Physics or request it at your local bookstore or library! Check out Daniel’s podcast, Daniel & Kelly’s Extraordinary Universe!
