Bees on Blow, the Science of Axe Body Spray, 5 Years of Spirit and Opportunity (Episode 7)

by Christopher Mims on January 14, 2009

This week: Bees on Blow are like people on blow, which explains why humans get addicted to pesticides. Science proves: Axe Body Spray really works! But not for the reasons you think it does. Spirit and Opportunity: Hot Damn, but these are two tough little mars-exploring robots — we take a look back while choking back a bolus of sweet, sweet pride.

Another great show! It was missed over the holidays. Cheers to the rover, I was there when the last tweets came in on Twitter. At least this year is the International Year of Astronomy http://www.astronomy2009.org/organisation/nodes/national/
