Episode 44: Twisty Graphene, Earthquake Animal Detection and Michael Meyer with the Arthropods of Siberia
Show Notes

In science news this week we answer a common question- just why does the Pfizer vaccine need to be kept at such a low temperature as well as a really cool study on the twisting of graphene!  In Pet Science we take a look at some of the evidence that animals can detect earthquakes.   Our expert guest is Michael Meyer, a PhD candidate who studies the chemicals in lakes as well as the arthropods in Siberia!!!   Our Woo or Wow guest is Sophia Gad Nasr, a guest from season one and an amazing astrophysicist who studies dark matter!  Some goofy family stories round out the podcast.
