Description
We take a deep dive into the origin of Mars’s moons and whether they are chips off the old block. There’s no research to explain the mystery of why Mars and the rest of the planets are even here after billions of years, when the solar system seems to be inherently unstable. And astronomers may have caught a star in the act of gobbling up a planet in the first stages of the star’s death throes. Catch up on these scary things that can happen to a planet, space news, and Top quark trivia.

Tunneling
While barrier penetration can be an unwelcome mishap in your family planning, quantum tunneling is here to enable everything from your cell phones memory circuits to sunshine itself. Enabling electrons to penetrate potential energy barriers, tunneling is indispensable for your scanning tunneling electron microscope, nuclear fusion reaction, solar cells, and more. Act now and Walkabout listeners get chaos-assisted tunneling at half price with the purchase of the resonance-assisted tunneling premium package, saving you an indeterminate amount of money. Tunneling, enjoy the journey (Amtrak).
