Peter Hill Explains
573 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 3 years ago -You are welcome to listen in as I "explain things scientific". I have had great fun with lasers, robots and absorbing Quantum Physics. Now as a classroom teacher, laid low by heart surgery its time to pick yourself up, dust yourself off and give it all you've got. "And in the mean time keep on doing science"

Cosmos Mag 83 -8
December 11, 2019 06:44I like the idea of describing ion channels in crystals as scars. I think the answer is that dark matter is not a particle. It is just my thought. The article on mushrooms is beautifully quirky. Give me a sick bag for the review of the book on supernova which has no actual science in it.

December 11, 2019 06:44I think the US has a real problem with its citzens able to own the land directly. We own the title to the land to live on it, but the resources require a licence to exploit. Now owning the title can limit access of others, but in the case of fracking people can apply to the government to kick you off. At any case it sounds like a real night mare in the making the wild west destroying the past. MP4 recording MP3 recording Your browser does not support the audi...

December 11, 2019 06:44Mucked up the order, but this is about mouse and lizard eating spiders, incidentally my kids have a total turn around now content to have spider 100 mm across just sitting there.

December 11, 2019 06:43I love the first planimal fossil for 540 million years ago being a doormat that couldn't possibly imagine the slew of predators from the upcoming Cambrian explosion. I am do how ever think the idea that we are seeing only crinkly inside hard to take when you think of the evidence from the folded doormats. I know the family of the Geologist who first uncovered them in South Australia. The untold story I feel is important is the idea that these guys where a global success story, so must hav...

Ancient - Barbarian - Enlightenment
December 07, 2019 06:14Sorry about this podcast while walking, checking on a friend, then in on the Museum then buying milk.

December 04, 2019 11:30Really listening to the complex no talk about climate change is really laugh able. I found astroKate's description of colliding neutron stars just really good. I now know we know what elements are made because we turned our telescopes to look at one. Fascinating! Alan Finkel is just really has a way with expression for driverless cars. The really long article on hibernation just about put me to sleep. Some of the scientists are not good enough to pick up they are not good enough. MP4 reco...

November 29, 2019 07:41Well about the most interesting read on Dark Matter yet, give it is not there. The need to salvage WW2 warships for their non radioactive iron is great.

November 27, 2019 22:14Meet an Englishman forced by Google to read my paper. The research is actually really good and I absolutely love the God Helmet that can make you an atheist at the end.

Female Factory Tour
November 23, 2019 01:45Thanks to Gay fro all her fantastic information about the Female Factory Tour which processed all the women coming of the boats from England.
