scienceTASTIC Episode 032 - Boom Boom Boom

In this episode of scienceTASTIC we peak into our crystal ball to see what science has in store for us. No news on personal jet packs yet, but Mark shows how we could all be flying to work in our own two-seater planes (with video). It's a bit of a bummer that the oceans are getting more acidic, but Mike points out that some ocean life is rolling with the changes. Speaking of the high seas, Joe reports on a new ship that could soon provide a better means of exploring the deep. In addition to the soothsaying you also get smoking (turns out it's bad for you), a better way to make cheap solar cells, and monkey grammar. Behold, the future!

What we didn't get to: the smell of books, exotic ocean creatures, and the top science images of the year.

Say, our announcer Maria Farina has just released the second book in her Gypsy Chronicles series titled Grave Talk. You should check it out. It's great fun.
