🔬 NASA's Metal World Has a Secret, A Man Survived Without Lungs & More Discoveries Just Dropped

Episode 299 Published 1 month, 4 weeks ago
Description
NASA's Psyche mission is closing in on a mysterious metal asteroid that may be the exposed core of a long-dead planet — and a newly identified crater could finally crack the mystery wide open. A 33-year-old man survived 48 hours with both lungs surgically removed, kept alive by an artificial system while his body fought off a catastrophic infection. Scientists have uncovered a massive hidden granite formation buried beneath Antarctica's Pine Island Glacier, nearly 100 kilometers wide and invisible until now. A new experimental drug called enlicitide slashed bad cholesterol by 60% in a major clinical trial, offering fresh hope to millions who can't manage heart disease with existing treatments. From feathered dinosaurs that gave up on flight to bacteria engineered to hunt tumors, this episode is packed with science that rewrites what we thought we knew.
