If you’ve ever thought the weather was difficult to predict, you should try Stephanie Grocke’s job: predicting volcanoes! In this episode, we hear about a seven-hour hike, cloudy days, and emergency evacuations.
Jenny Adler loved diving and taking photographs. Little did she know that her photographs would serve as a record of the decline of an important species. In this episode, we hear about cave diving, freshwater springs, and deciding to move from active science to science communication.
Sarah Stewart Johnson knows a lot about motherhood and the surface of Mars—she has it all! In this episode, we hear about freezing temperatures, children in the field, life on other planets, and the importance of role models.
Like many kids, Aubrey Roberts was obsessed with dinosaurs, and learned later that you can have job a working with them! Or rather, their bones. In this episode, we hear about ancient reptiles that aren’t dinosaurs, using engineering to study ancient animals, and the aftermath of discovery.
