From gods descended from the heavens, to single celled microbes on Europa, space has remained at the forefront of human science and fiction.

This episode takes a look at Nikola Tesla's first discovery, his thoughts about it, and where we have gone since, and ends with a discussion about the perils of signaling into the unknown!
