Promise

Season 5, Episode 6 - From juice to space, with a side of tentacles


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore everything from incremental developments, to exponential bounds being made in technology. From a healthier grape juice that could shift dietary habits, to moving data millions of times faster with the same hardware that could redefine how we experience recreation. We also cover the blurred lines between space technology and military hardware, and what might be needed from both to redefine civilian travel. All this and more, coming right up!
