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.
The story you just read is available to read for free because thousands of listeners and readers like you generously support our nonprofit newsroom. Every day, the reporters and producers at The World are hard at work bringing you human-centered news from across the globe. But we can’t do it without you: We need your support to ensure we can continue this work for another year.
When you make a gift of $10 or more a month, we’ll invite you to a virtual behind-the-scenes tour of our newsroom to thank you for being with The World.
