Sassy Science Podcast

Science + Music = Sassy

Sassy Science News – Snot helps sharks find dinner, lobster pain, optimism pinpointed in the brain, curvier women have smarter children, why cursing at work is f*#@$ great, and more.

Terrorizing Details of the Dino Extinction – We all know an asteroid came in and wiped out the dinosaurs, but what exactly happened to cause the mass extinction to go down? Dr. Jay Melosh, a Professor of Planetary Science whose speciality is geologic violence, is investigating this mystery. He’s from the University of Arizona, but I caught up with him at a public lecture he was giving at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics.
