Episode 5: Nobel Prize for Physiology 2021 – decoded for kids
^{00:09:55 | October 7th, 2021}

The Nobel Prize for Physiology 2021 goes to two scientists who have helped us identify which receptors in our bodies sense heat, touch, temperature and pressure.In this podcast, we explain what these 4 receptors (TRPV1, TRPM8, PIEZO1, PIEZO2) mean, in simple terms for kids to understand. We also answer questions raised by our young listeners –a) We always knew that we had sensors for touch and heat that sent information to our brain. What does this research tell us additionally ?b) Why are these receptors important for us ? What would happen to us, if we did not have these receptors ?c) All this information sounds interesting to be printed on encyclopedias and science textbooks. But where would we really be using this?

Episode 3: Internet satellites and light pollution
^{00:09:05 | October 4th, 2021}

SpaceX, Amazon and many more internet satellite companies are planning to send over 60,000 satellites into the space over the next few years. While this can serve many under-served parts of the world with faster and cheaper internet connectivity, this can also have a harmful impact, by way of light pollution.Light pollution is caused by the fact that there can be more visible satellites than there are visible stars. This can impact the ability of astronomers to see the night sky clearly. Also, this can increase the risk of leaving too much space debris after the satellites stop being functional.Internet satellite companies and astronomers are working together to figure out the right brightness levels. Until this is still being sorted, we remain at risk of rising light pollution and crazy bright night skies.In case of thoughts and queries, please reach out to us via text or audio message to hello@wsnt.in

China's factories are faced with rising demand but these factories are unable to produce enough as they don't have enough power. China is keen on keeping its carbon emissions under control. So Chinese coal power stations are not allowed to increase power output in keeping with the rising demand. Chinese factories, as a result, are working fewer hours. Global supply chains involving phones, laptops, leather shoes, or textiles are likely to be impacted.
