95bFM: Dear Science

This week Aneeka and Allan create a nickname (AA battery) before chatting science.

Allan the chemist discusses the credability of social sciences and they need to repeat experiments to solidify reliability.

James asks about COVID-19 detector dogs who can sniff out the virus in less than a second with high levels of accuracy.

Dear Science finishes off with noise sensitivity, and how chewing noises can potentially drive people to violence.

The week Marcus brings us mind boggling topics, which hurt the heads of both hosts and listeners alike.

Marcus starts off with seabed particles from potential supernova or neutron star colissions, and explain how this can teach us more about the universe.

James tries to learn about quasicrystals, which have patterns which aren't patterns. Marcus explains how nuclear bombs coming into play with this confusing topic.

The show finishes off with a quick chat about how human tissue from 1918 has taught us more about epidemics and pandemics.

This week on Dear Science the bants were truely flowing between Allan, James and Aneeka as they discuss science.

This week starts off with a bang, as they talk about Chernobyl and how it could be continuing to cause problems.

Allan educates us on Dorothy Hodgkin, a science pioneer who would've turned 111.

The segment finishes off with a chat about super duper strong laser beams developed in Korea.

This week on Dear Science Marcus once again blows everyone's minds with science which pushes the boundaries.

Dear Science starts off with a chat about Mayflies and lamps and how unnatural light is killing our insect populations.

Next Marcus and James talk about ancient superhighways in Australia which have been mapped using supercomputers.

To finish up this week Marcus gives us an update on how the COVID-19 vaccines impact transmission rates.

This week Dear Science is a little bit shorter, but that doesn't make it any worse!

This week Allan talks to James and Aneeka about anti-matter and anti-matter stars and some of the complication which come with them.

Allan also dishes out the info on a new plastic in the U.S which has enzymes intergrated into plastic so it can decompose withour producing microplastics.

This week we talk to Marcus Jones about NASA's mars helicopter, How many Tyrannasaurus-rex used to roam the earth and human-monkey embryos.

Aaaaaaahhhhh another week of Dear Science! Thisweek James and Aneeka discuss the AstraVeneca COVID-19 vaccine & probability, changing the laws of physics and Yuri Gagarin going into orbit 60 years ago.

This week Marcus teaches us about looking COVID-19 vaccine side effects, the asteroid that hit the Amazon region and ghost particles underneath the sea.

This week Allan is in studio with James and Aneeka to discuss some good ol physics, along woth chats about peanut butter and celery at the start of the show.

Dear Science starts of by talking about the second and how long it actually is, becuase as James and Aneeka find out, it can get pretty damn accurate.

Allan then heads onto the next physics topic for the day, gravity. While there are lots of forces, Allan explains how some scientists have measured the gravitational pull of small golden balls.

This week finishes off with a bit of history in realtion to last week and the NASA helicopter. Allan talks about how the Wright brothers weren't the first to fly, instead it was Richard Pearce, a kiwi down south.

This week Marcus chats with James and Aneeka about a range of topics to get your mind turning.

James starts off by asking about COVID-19 and Marcus explains what the future might look like.
