Science journalist Asher Elbein explores a radical new theory that life’s complexity may have emerged more than once on Earth. New evidence from billion-year-old Gabonese fossils could rewrite evolutionary history.

Long-time tech industry insider and Park City resident Don Stanger discusses the growing reliance on microchips throughout just about every major industry in the U.S. He tackles the evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the U.S. and how it is interconnected with the microchip industry.

Astrobiologist Caleb Scharf discusses his new book, "The Giant Leap: Why Space Is the Next Frontier in the Evolution of Life," exploring how humanity’s expansion into space represents a profound new phase in the story of evolution itself.

Geoscientist Gabriel Bowen discusses new research revealing that human activity has pushed Utah’s Great Salt Lake into a state unseen for at least 2,000 years. By analyzing oxygen and carbon isotopes in lakebed sediments, Bowen shows how settlement, irrigation and modern infrastructure have fundamentally altered the lake’s chemistry and water balance.

NASA’s groundbreaking NISAR satellite is now in orbit, scanning Earth’s surface with unmatched precision. Dr. Cathleen Jones from JPL explains how this first-of-its-kind mission will reveal subtle changes across our planet, from shifting shorelines to rising volcanoes, helping communities better prepare for a changing world.

A new blood test may drastically change how doctors treat depression. NeuroKaire’s chief medical officer, Dr. Justin Coffey, explains how their BrightKaire test can identify the right antidepressant for each patient in weeks rather than months. Then Dr. Cathleen Jones from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory reveals how NASA’s NISAR satellite can now scan the Earth in incredible detail, allowing us to see it breathe and shift in real time.

Physicist and futurist Michio Kaku discusses string theory, quantum computing and how the next wave of scientific breakthroughs could transform life and technology. Then, writer and business strategist Lee Malcher explores the surprising parallels between human relationships and quantum entanglement, uncovering how science and spirituality intersect in our search for authentic connection.

Adventure Scientists’ Becky Schnekser talks about the Plastic-Free Parks TrashBlitz, a nationwide effort empowering volunteers to track and clean up plastic waste across U.S. national parks and federal lands. Then, NASA Sagan Fellow Margaret Thompson discusses her groundbreaking research on rocky exoplanets. Using laboratory experiments and theoretical models, she explores how these distant “magma worlds” form, evolve and develop atmospheres that may one day reveal signs of life.
