Episode 19: Perplexing Primes Part I (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Imagine a concept so simple you learnt about it in primary school, but so complex that you can earn a $1 million prize for solving a problem related to it. It’s puzzled the greatest mathematical brains for thousands of years, and there are computers solely dedicated to it. I’m talking about prime numbers. But why are they such a big deal - after all it's just a name for a certain type of number, so why are we so obsessed with them over other numbers? Well it’s actually so complex that this is go

Episode 17: The Missing Moon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hello! Welcome back! This episode, we are doing a bit of a thought experiment about the Moon. The Earth and the Moon are so closely related, both directly in their physical effects on each other, but also indirectly. Through the effect they have on evolution, culture, seasons, and how we measure time. We all know the Moon is there and many people know the odd thing about the Moon affecting the tides on Earth, but I thought the best way to understand how much of an impact the Moon has on earth wo

Hello, welcome back! This episode is part of one of the mini series I have in this podcast - Bookworm(hole), where, in simplest terms, I discuss science books I’ve read, my thoughts on them, and what I’d recommend to you. So far there has only been one previous episode in this series, that was all the way back in episode 5. In that, I actually discussed three non fiction science books. So more than 10 episodes later, I think it is high time for another bookish episode. Today, however, I am only
Episode 15: How's it Glowing? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I wonder what comes to your mind when I mention something that emits light. Perhaps a lightbulb, flames, or the sun. Maybe phone screens, the moon, or light reflecting off a shiny surface. In fact I think we often mainly associate light with astronomical objects like stars, fire, or man made electrical things like lightbulbs. However, there is another category of light emitting things that is more obscure but amazing. I’m talking about bioluminescence. In Episode 11, The Dark Side of Light, we l
