In this episode, we’re cracking open the fascinating world of cacao and cocoa! While they come from the same tree, their journeys from bean to ingredient are quite different. Join us as we explore the raw beginnings of cacao, its transformation into cocoa, and the rich history behind these magical beans—dating back over 5,300 years to their origins in the Amazon.

Discover how cacao fueled ancient Mesoamerican cultures, became a currency for the Aztecs, and grew into a global industry centered in West Africa. We’ll delve into the health benefits and risks of cacao and cocoa, including their role in reducing inflammation, improving heart health, and even boosting your mood.

Ever wondered about the difference between dark, milk, and white chocolate? Or why some recipes call for cacao powder over cocoa powder? We’ve got the answers, plus tips on how to incorporate these ingredients into your daily diet.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into NASA’s latest findings on Asteroid 2024 YR4. Discovered in late 2024, this asteroid has sparked scientific curiosity and concern due to its slim but notable 2.3% chance of impacting Earth on December 22, 2032. We’ll break down its size, potential impact speed, energy release, and how scientists are monitoring its path.

We also explore how the Torino Impact Hazard Scale measures asteroid threats, why Asteroid 2024 YR4 is currently rated at level 3, and how future observations—especially by the James Webb Space Telescope—may adjust its risk. Plus, we touch on NASA’s proven asteroid-deflection strategies, like the 2022 DART mission, which could come into play if needed.

Finally, we shift gears to discuss the Rio Scale—a tool used to assess the significance of potential extraterrestrial signals—and how it complements the Torino Scale in measuring cosmic hazards and discoveries.

Have you ever heard of water bears or moss piglets? Known scientifically as tardigrades, these microscopic creatures are some of the most remarkable organisms on Earth. First described in the 18th century, tardigrades have earned their reputation as the ultimate survivors. From the crushing depths of the ocean to the vacuum of space, these resilient creatures thrive in environments lethal to most life forms.

In this fascinating episode of Info On The Go, we dive into the world of tardigrades to explore their biology, survival mechanisms, and importance to science. Learn about their unique ability to enter a near-death state called cryptobiosis, how they survive extreme temperatures, radiation, and crushing pressures, and what their resilience teaches us about life on Earth and beyond.

We'll also share tips on how to observe these tiny titans in your own backyard and discuss the fun, hands-on process of collecting and viewing them under a microscope.

Join William and Kat as they uncover the secrets of these incredible creatures and inspire you to look closer at the wonders of the natural world.
