Seeing a supernova
The World Science Festival kicks off on Tuesday in New York. When science takes a step forward, it doesn’t just advance in one state and under one set of laws. Knowledge crosses political boundaries, and technology has global impacts.
Festival founder Brian Greene joins us to talk about science and foreign policy and the need for inspiring the next generation of innovators.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
