Which animal is the scariest? According to a recent study, humans have ousted lions at the top of the predator pecking order. The experiment on a group of wild animals showed that they were twice as likely to run away when they heard a human voice compared with the sound of a lion snarling or […]
Animals at a watering hole in South Africa were twice as likely to flee in response to recordings of humans talking compared to sounds of lions.
If you drink coffee, you might wonder if you’re doing the most to make your absolute best cup of coffee. And fortunately for you, science has the answers, from getting the perfect grind to finding out the best beans for you. So pull up a chair and pour yourself a cup of joe! Hosted by: […]
Single-origin specialty coffee can cost over $30 per pound, more than five times the average price of 1 pound of ground coffee in the US. “Specialty” is the term for the highest-quality coffee, and aficionados describe its taste with words more frequently used by sommeliers, like “floral” or “fruity.” Reaching this level of quality requires […]
NASA astronaut Don Pettit invented the Zero-G coffee cup while he was on the International Space Station. In this clip from Episode 106 of Fueled By Death Cast, Don talks about the origin of the idea and how he created the coffee cup in space, allowing astronauts for the first time to drink liquids the […]

Optimus can now sort objects autonomously 🤖 . Its neural network is trained fully end-to-end: video in, controls out.
Woolly Mammoths could soon make a comeback. A new company is on a mission to create a mammoth-elephant hybrid, and their reason might surprise you.
In a world grappling with the dire consequences of plastic pollution, a remarkable discovery has ignited a glimmer of hope. These unassuming worms, known as mealworms, are challenging the very nature of plastic, a material initially created for convenience but which has since become a relentless scourge on our planet. Plastic’s enduring structure and resistance […]
German researchers have enabled mice paralyzed after spinal cord injuries to walk again, re-establishing a neural link hitherto considered irreparable in mammals by using a designer protein injected into the brain. #News
This episode explores animals’ ability to perceive magnetism or “magnetoreception.» We know from behavioral evidence that many organisms, from bacteria, to lobsters, to pigeons sense and respond to magnetic fields but we are just starting to learn how this works. Learn more about magnetoreception: http://scim.ag/2gMOFS3
Some birds can sense Earth’s magnetic field, using it to navigate. But precisely how they do this has long remained a mystery. Now, researchers have confirmed that a protein found in bird eyes displays a quantum mechanical phenomenon which makes it sensitive to magnetic fields. The researchers suggest this mechanism could be behind birds’ magnetoreception […]
For people with paralysis and other conditions, brain-computer-interfaces could provide a way to communicate without needing to be able to speak. The technology to do this has developed rapidly over the past few years, and two new studies show impressive results in converting brain activity into text, sounds and even facial expressions.
Amid a warming world, these conservationists have brought back a very old and very low-tech drought-busting practice and they are getting results.
