Space: the final frontier and indeed, the subject of this week’s episode. We’ll have early astronomy, we’ll take a trip to the moon and we’ll ask the fundamental question: are we alone in the universe and has anyone from another civilisation visited us on earth? (Outside of that one particular episode of Beadle’s About in the 80s).

Elsewhere, we’ll be discussing the loneliest human in history and why leech-based healthcare was so big for so long. If you’ve got anything else to contribute, here’s where you need to send it: hello@ohwhatatime.com
