Show Notes

It's the 1 year anniversary of "The Science Pawdcast" and this episode is out of this world!

Oh boy!  What a fun episode!  In Science News you'll hear some crazy new record breaking lightning distances that were just announced, as well as the science as to why lightning strikes in the first place!  SHOCKING!  ;-)  In Pet Science we have the touching tale of August, the Golden Retriever that just turned 20!!! (as well as the science behind why dogs age so quickly compared to other animals).  Our guest is the stellar Kim Arcand, who is a Visualization scientist with NASA and an author of many books.  She chats with us about X-Rays, exploded stars and touching dog stories.  She rules.
We have trivia and a special BEST of with the family to celebrate the One Year Anniversary of The Science Pawdcast!
