Episode 46: Misunderstanding Science

In this episode of Art and Science Punks Kate and Rob discuss a science misunderstanding by way of a recent Twitter post that mixes photos from Nasa spacecraft with something made for television. Kate and Rob also share an art pick and a science pick this week: one is handy clay to have at home; the other is a set of font guides.
