IFLScience - Break It Down

Tossing Puffins, Python Vs Python, And Homeopathy. Is. Not. Science.


Listen Later

This week on Break It Down, “dangerous” asteroid Apophis has a slightly increased risk of hitting Earth, a pig in Hong Kong undergoes an operation by a team in Switzerland, people in Iceland are throwing puffins off cliffs, an asteroid impact over the Philippines just made history, a python somehow managed to ingest another python, and we take a closer look at why homeopathy isn’t all it's cracked up to be.

 

So sit back, relax, and let’s Break It Down…
