IFLScience - Break It Down

Space Rainbows, Ancient Animal Art, And Heart-Eyed Toads


Listen Later

This week in Break It Down, a rainbow-like glory is detected beyond our Solar System, a sand-slab stingray may be the oldest animal art, ancient etchings in Peru may depict psychedelic music, scientists complete the world’s largest digital camera, and a toad with heart-shaped pupils. Plus, how far can a bird fly without flapping? Turns out, pretty damn far.

Sit back, relax, and let's Break It Down...
