Strange Realm - Ep. 048 - Jan. 28th, 2024

Tonight we bring you a exciting and growth-minded episode as we look at the Japanese moon lander which landed upside down, experiments which show lichen can grow in space and chickpeas can grow on the Moon, and finally we check out news that T Cells can be reprogrammed to attack cells that cause aging in the body. All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series and Frobisher reads more of the paranormal classic, "Darkness Walks: The Shadow People Among Us," by Jason Offutt.
