Looking up at the dark sky on a clear night means seeing the lit up little satellites move their way around the night sky. Those satellites might be pretty to look at but researchers are currently working to solve a decades-old problem: what happens when they encounter space junk? Today, producer Teresa Carey speaks with Dr. John Crassidis from the University of Buffalo about this issue and what options aerospace engineers have to solve it. Then, host Dr. Samantha Yammine digs into a recent paper that explores the physics behind the perfect cup of coffee and the recent sighting of the elusive colossal squid.
