scienceTASTIC Episode 051 - The World Is Gross

That's right, the world is gross. But on every episode of scienceTASTIC we also learn that it's interesting, exciting, and - once in a great while - adorable. Mike kicks off 051 with zombie ants, Mark follows up with tiny frogs, and Joe rounds things out with a search for the anti-universe. Socks not blown off yet? Well, try eco-cremations, the search for Transformers-like alien robots, and a new planetary system that may be hiding a Super Earth. If you're still not astounded by the wonders of the world you might want to take your pulse; I think you could be dead.

What we didn't get to: infinite doppleganger, simulating spaceflight reentry by shocking astronauts brains, and pulling electricity out of thin air.
