Today we’re going out in the field with Lindsay Patterson and Marshall Escamilla of the Tumble Science Podcast for kids to take a look at one of the places in Western Mass that you can see dinosaur tracks. Because it turns out, there’s a bunch of spots that you can find them right here along the Connecticut River. So many in fact that they’ve created a whole map for NEPM that you can use with your little ones to find them in your own time. 

     We go hands on with the pair  in Gill to find out how the science around locating the tracks evolved and changed paleontology as a whole, how these particular tracks end up being so well preserved, and what to look for when you’re out discovering in the wilds of Western Massachusetts... and it's like one of those cool crossover episodes between network shows. 

 Mr. Universe, Salman Hameed of Hampshire college and Kainaat Studios wants you to watch more PBS, because Nova is really awesome, though and Salman breaks down just a few reasons why. Plus he'll address the majesty and mystery of  brown dwarfs. 

And for us, there's the tiny milestone of this being our 400th show. No biggie.
