Miscellaneous
The upcoming Australian Space Agency is up first for discussion. The conversation forks off to South Australia's power-grid battery, which is the largest in the world, built by Tesla. There is also a little dig at Trump's clean-coal speech. A discussion on Virtual Reality returns as Aki prepares for his Oculus Rift to be delivered. Five bad science studies that were later revoked is the topic of 'That's Not Science, Digi!'. Some of these studies had a serious impact on the population. Vantablack, which absorbs 99% of light, gets a fun dialogue after someone proposed to use the material as swimming pool tiles. The show then wraps up with the upcoming Falcon Heavy launch and its payload.
