This week, we look at recent studies in astronomy such as new findings in paleogeomagnetism — measuring historical transitions in Earth's magnetic field, a hypothesis for life on Mars — testing organic material deterioration with UV radiation, and another naked-eye comet coming to our skies this April.
Join us this week as Mike looks at some interesting science happening in current events.
