Episode Details

A landmark discovery 320 light-years away has given scientists their first direct proof of a long-held theory about how planets form — and it could change how we search for life beyond Earth. Researchers have also identified a mysterious new state of matter potentially hidden inside Uranus and Neptune, while a surprising compound found in python blood is opening a radical new door in obesity treatment. A bacterium originally found in frog gut has wiped out tumors in mice with a single dose, raising hopes for a cancer therapy that leaves healthy cells completely untouched. Meanwhile, thawing permafrost is releasing greenhouse gases at rates 25 to 100 times greater than current models account for — and scientists say we may be badly underestimating how fast things could spiral.
