Strange Realm - Ep. 055 - March 17th, 2024
Tonight we bring you a loose and lunar show as we investigate the many obelisks if Kentucky, we look into the news of confirmation of MITs superconducting magnet breakthrough which is crucial for fusion reactors, as well as news that a new world record has been set for world's largest blueberry, and then we take a look at using the Moon as a communication satellite via the "Moonbounce," also known as Earth-Moon-Earth communication. All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more of "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
