Episode 34 - "The Earth isn’t a big bar magnet"

Listen Later

Join us to talk about the Earth’s magnetic field. It protects us and has complication on more levels than you think. It produces the aurora and helps us date rocks and structures!

            Fun Paper Friday

            Studying rockfalls with seismometers and infrasound could save lives and turns out to be both challenging and interesting!
