Through the Looking Glass: Mirror Life Explained
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if life had evolved backwards? In this episode, we explore the frontier of mirror life, a version of biology built from molecules that are the exact opposite of ours. From drugs that could last forever in the body, to organisms resistant to every virus on Earth, to the mind-bending question of why life chose left-handed molecules in the first place, mirror biology pushes the limits of science and imagination!
