This episode will have a Deep Impact! How the heck do we defend ourselves from a killer chunk of space debris? Luckily, planetary defenders are on the case... In How to Kill an Asteroid, an upcoming book by award-winning science journalist Robin George Andrews, he reveals the development of the technology that makes defending the earth possible - from spotting elusive asteroids and comets to figuring out their geologic defences and orchestrating a deflection campaign. The book is available in all good book shops and online from October 1st 2024. Get it before we're gone. You can get in touch with Dan Schreiber on Instagram @wecanbeweirdos.
