Lagrange Point

Why has a 2,500 year old game got the AI community abuzz? Are we one step closer to creative AIs? We also bring you the Round 1 update on Mammal March Madness!

Lets get ready to rumble...for Mammal March Madness 2016. We preview the best battle of the animals of the calendar year. Plus we find out about the language of the drumming taps of woodpeckers and the surprising revival of the Sumatran orangutans!

Do we misremember the past? How do our brains keep the context in place? Can your computers or robots tell if you're bored, and what would happen if they could?

Farms in a desert, baking with coffee instead of drinking it, and finding the right balance with biofuels. We tackle the scientific challenges involved in sustainably feeding our planet!

We've found gravitational waves, but now what? How did LIGO find gravitational waves, and what does that mean for the rest of astrophysics and the universe?

Can you legally become an asteroid Miner? Are comets full of large hollow ice caves? How are massive mountains on Pluto floating around? All this and more on Lagrange Point's 3rd birthday special!

The Zika virus can be hard to spot but it may have huge impacts on newborn health. Plus we find out about snakes and some other large animals have found a way to reproduce asexually.

Why are people clamouring about a 9th planet? Do we actually have any proof and where does this leave Pluto? Plus we find out about something that lives of 300 cups of coffee a day.

Tiny creatures can pack a big punch. We find out about two of the biggest hitters (despite their tiny size) of the animal kingdom, and what it can tell us about mechanics, ecology and adaptation. We get into detail on Pistol Shrimp and Chameleons!
