NASA Dart Mission
from STEM & Tonic
In this episode: The NASA DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test). This mission was designed and led by the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory. This was an experiment to determine if scientists could successfully redirect an asteroid that could potentially be on a trajectory for the earth and cause extinction. They chose an asteroid, dimorphous that was orbiting another asteroid "didymos", that is not on earth's trajectory and causes no imminent danger to humans to test if redirection of an asteroid was possible by crashing a satellite into it.

X Man: The Elon Musk Origin Story
Pushkin Industries and BBC Radio 4
The story of Elon Musk, the way it's often told, makes him sound like a fictional character, a comic-book superhero – or, especially lately, a supervillain. As the world's richest man, the US President’s right-hand man, and the owner of X, he’s possibly the world’s most powerful man. Musk wants to build robots and colonise Mars and appears to be dismantling sizable parts of the US government. His vision of the future seems to stem from the science fiction that has fueled his imagination since he was a boy. But what's the real story, the true history, behind Musk’s sense of destiny? Back in 2021 Harvard history professor and New Yorker writer Jill Lepore became fascinated by this question. So she made a podcast that tried to explain Musk through the science fiction he grew up with. A lot has happened in the four years since. So she’s gone back in to bring the story up to date.“X Man: The Elon Musk Origin Story” is a production of the BBC and distributed by Pushkin Industries.
