Why are bugs so weird? Neil deGrasse Tyson and Negin Farsad sit down with entomologist, Jessica Ware, to dig into the extraordinary world of bugs, insects the size of navel oranges, how they invented flying and so much more.
What actually is a bug? Learn how the way an insect eats determines whether they are a bug or not. Jessica traces insects back 400 million years to their single common ancestor. Discover how dragonflies were the original flying design for living things. Why are insects so successful on Earth? They predate dinosaurs by hundreds of millions of years, were the first animals to fly, and have had enough time to fill every ecological niche on the planet.
Learn about dragonfly eyes and how their methods for mating impact their vision. What do dragonfly brains actually look like and what can they remember? Would territorial dragonflies have larger brains than non-territorial ones? Do migratory insects develop bigger brains to navigate? Is there a single common ancestor for all insects? We talk about the species unique to New York, cockroaches that only reluctantly share our spaces, and how warming weather will make our future more buggy. What would actually happen if we eliminated mosquitoes entirely? Jessica walks through why wiping out the three most dangerous species would be a net positive for humans, while the things that eat mosquitoes would largely survive.
The episode closes on the alarming collapse of insect populations worldwide. We break down all the ways that humans impact insects from light pollution disrupting firefly mating, urbanization destroying habitat, and the sobering reality that all life on land came after insects and still depends on them. Plus: what did bed bugs feed on before beds existed, and just how big can an insect actually get?

What does it look like beneath the surface of the sun? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and comedian Chuck Nice discuss the heliosphere, the Parker Solar Probe, and solar storms with heliophysicist Lika Guhathakurta.
How do we know what’s going on inside the sun? We break down the techniques heliophysicists use to infer activity beneath the surface. Plus, how much matter has the sun lost since it began the fusion process? Learn how the sun maintains its mass despite all the energy it radiates.
We explore the sounds the sun would make if you could hear it in space. How might that sound differ between large and small stars? Can you see the boiling plasma on the surface of the sun? We discuss the heliosphere, the region outside the sun influenced by the solar wind, and how it protects us from solar radiation. How have NASA spacecraft “punched through” the heliosphere? What was the mission of the Parker Solar Probe, and what is it doing now?
How do coronal mass ejections interact with our atmosphere? Learn about how the sun creates aurora and Neil and Lika’s experiences with solar storms. Could a coronal mass ejection wipe out all electronics on Earth—or in orbit? What would happen if we had another Carrington Event, the most intense geomagnetic storm in recorded history?

Could there be other universes out there? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly answer science questions from celebrities like Steven Spielberg, Josh Scherer, Emily Blunt, and more.
Director Steven Spielberg asks about the empty space inside of an atom. We discuss how wide the gap is between the electrons and the nucleus and what keeps them from crashing into each other. How are scientists working to harness quantum tunneling and entanglement?
Producer Bill Prady asks if the multiverse is real. We break down what the universe looked like during the Big Bang. Can you solve the multiverse with math? Josh Scherer of Mythical Kitchen asks what plants Neil thinks need a genetic update. Learn about how humans have been modifying crops throughout history. Plus, Neil explains how we can get kids to eat their vegetables with GMOs.
Actress Riki Lindhome asks about the most misunderstood concept in the universe. Why do so many movies have sound in space? Would you really float around in a spaceship if you weren’t strapped down? Emily Blunt asks if Neil has ever had an alien encounter.
