As long as things have been falling to the ground, humans have asked "why?"

We take a voyage this week through history, from the time of the Greeks, to the post-renaissance era of Kepler, and Galileo and Newton, only to land in the 20th century where Einstein et al. turned the physics world on its head.

And we finish up with some wild and woolly theories describing the universe as being made up of strings or better yet space and time itself made up of tiny loops!

What's with physicists and putting "Dark" in front of everything?

After the last episode on science fiction, we're going to plunge right back into hardcore physics - even though it might seem like science fiction - thanks to our two guests.

Domitille and Jeanne, who will go into great depths explaining to us the origins of these two weird and fascinating theories, and how far we have come so far in testing and verifying them.

This is another one of those must-not-miss episodes ! Enjoy!!

Science Fiction, as a literary genre, is rather young and has long not been taken as seriously as other genres. It is primarily a post-industrial revolution and technology-driven creation.

This has changed a great amount over past few decades. As it has matured, it has become the perfect arena for humanity to look at itself as a society and as a species and wonder about what the consequences of ours choices, our actions, and our science and technology will be on our own humanity.

In this episode, Flore and Maud will talk about what science fiction is, what are some of the seminal works and touchstones of the genre, and what it can help reveal about ourselves and our societies.

Enjoy!
