Dr. Danny Jacobs is, in a way, a space explorer. As part of his research at ASU’s School of Earth and Space Exploration, he’s trying to understand how the universe began. Danny’s whole goal is to answer some of life’s biggest and most basic questions, like where did we come from and how did we get here? Not only that, but he’s also building satellites the size of cereal boxes to launch into space.

So where did we come from? In this episode, Danny and Hamid talk about that and more, like Elon Musk, the colonization of Mars and the future of space exploration.
