GOOD EVENING: The show begins in Charlie Chaplin's studio in Hollywood -- he owned everything -- where he created the genius of The Great Dictator (1940), a mocking slapstick about the Hitlerites that was an accurate prelude to the horror. Then to the planet Earth without humans, asking how canines would fare without masters. To New South Wales after 13 days of rain, breaking records and welcoming a La Niña winter. To the asteroid belt, looking forward to a conversation in the coming weeks about a sample return mission to Bennu.

CLUES OF ORIGINS: 4/4: Impact: How Rocks from Space Led to Life, Culture, and Donkey Kong Hardcover – by  Greg Brennecka  (Author)

Impact argues that Earth would be a lifeless, inhospitable piece of rock without being fortuitously assaulted with meteorites throughout the history of the planet. These bombardments transformed Earth’s early atmosphere and delivered the complex organic molecules that allowed life to develop on our planet. While meteorites have provided the raw materials for life to thrive, they have radically devastated life as well, most famously killing off the dinosaurs and paving the way for humans to evolve to where we are today.



As noted meteoriticist Greg Brennecka explains, meteorites did not just set us on the path to becoming human, they helped direct the development of human culture. Meteorites have influenced humanity since the start of civilization. Over the centuries, meteorite falls and other cosmic cinema have started (and stopped) wars, terrified millions, and inspired religions throughout the world.
