VFTQ 208 – Slapped with Science

Play

VFTQ should be downloaded at www.ViewFromTheQuad.com

This week on the show, we have a rather science-heavy topic load. Also, a bit of chat about TV up at the front. And I accidentally lied in the intro. Sorry about that!

Topics covered on the show include how NASA has found a new type of life (This Changes EVERYTHING!), some rather cool and scary sounding research the Chinese are doing and how Facebook are attempting to trademark the word Face. Online, at least. Also, a whole slew more!
