The Science Show · Looking inside cells, and how seals hear so well underwater · 31 Jul 2026 podcast

Thanks, Dan, who's always keen on deep physics.

Next week on The Science Show, I'm present as a dark matter detector is turned on, and I didn't even have to go down a mine.

Yes, Bella, next week we turn to music and maths.

They often go together as Bach knew, as does violin supremer Madeleine Easton, as we'll hear.

I'm Robin Williams.

And I'm Belinda Smith.

The Science Show · Pioneers past and present, and fiddling with life brings a heavy caution · 24 Jul 2026 podcast

For decades, a quantum computer has been just around the corner.

So where is it?

And more pessimistic.

One of the biggest tech stories on Earth.

I'm Jacinta Bowler.

Search for Science Friction, dead and alive, on ABC Listen or wherever you get your podcasts.

And find out why some scientists think synthetic life could be the end of us all.

In that chat, Robin, you mentioned synthetic DNA, which we covered on the Science Show a few weeks ago.

So that's building genetic material from scratch.

But there's also been work on synthetic life in the form of entire cells.

And this worries some scientists who think that a type of synthetic life called mirror life could pose a genuine threat, not just to us humans, but all life on Earth.

It sounds catastrophic.

These are very real concerns.
