Can we go completely solar? With John McCone

Dustin Driver hosts This is a Science Show, a space where curiosity meets conversation. It’s built on the idea that genuine discovery begins with admitting what we don’t understand. Each episode brings together leading researchers, thinkers, and storytellers to explore questions that sit at the intersection of hard science and human experience. You’ll hear discussions that range from the practical challenges of climate adaptation to the speculative futures of interstellar settlement and the long-term evolution of our species. This isn't just a lecture series; it’s a collaborative investigation into how scientific inquiry shapes our culture, our stories, and our society. The dialogue is grounded yet imaginative, always returning to that foundational moment of wonder. Tune in for a thoughtful and accessible journey through complex ideas, where every conversation is an invitation to think more deeply about our world and what lies beyond. This podcast thrives in the territory between known facts and the vast unknown, making the profound both engaging and relatable for anyone who’s ever looked up at the night sky and wondered.
