Bonus: Building Nuclear for the Moon with Tyler Bernstein of Zeno Power

We can live in an Age of Miracles, but it’s going to take a lot of work. 
Energy abundance is the most important thing we can work towards as a species. 
More than simply surviving climate change, we have the opportunity to unlock a new level of human thriving if we can successfully navigate this transition. 
That’s why we chose to do the first season of Age of Miracles on the energy sources of the future. In this episode of Age of Miracles, the final episode of season one, Packy and Julia reflect on the importance of energy abundance, how nuclear energy helps us unlock it, and what the future might look like when we do.
Thank you to all of our guests this season for making this show possible—we're so grateful.
