In this episode, we explore two powerful journeys. First one grounded in the sacred dark skies of New Mexico, the other reaching across billions of light-years through cutting-edge technology.
Asteroid hunters watch the skies, tracking space rocks that could pose a threat to Earth. At the same time, scientists search the cosmos for alien oceans, hoping to find signs of life beyond our world.
What would happen if a large impactor hit our oceans? And more about the protoplanetary disk around HD 163296
