The physicist comments on the news that NASA’s OSIRIS-REX spacecraft has touched the surface of an asteroid on Tuesday to gather a sample of rocks and dirt. What can we expect from the rubble that OSIRIS-REX is bringing home? What’s the difference, from […]
Dr. Weiping Yu is back with another segment of Science and U. On the claim that there is a fifty percent chance we’re living in a simulation, Dr. Yu remarks says, “there is a fundamental problem in quantum physics” and this is why such claims arise. What can better explain our universe if not quantum […]
In this classic Science and U interview that aired on November 7, 2019, David Gornoski and Dr. Weiping Yu are joined by Scott Adams, creator of the Dilbert comic strip and author of Loserthink.

What is ‘space’ and ‘matter?’ Is there a possibility of life on Venus? Listen to the entire episode to find out. […]
Is the universe too thin as cosmologists claim? What is the mystery behind the quirky response to magnetism in quantum physics? Where do the enormous magnetic fields that permeate our universe come from? Join Dr. Weiping Yu as he answers these questions while commenting on some of the latest science news from around the world. […]
Dr. Weiping Yu returns to the show to comment on the surprising news of two black holes colliding. Is there credible evidence that this collision took place? The physicist also comments on the discovery of Lunar Hematite, the finding that molecule found in bee venom can beat breast cancer, and more. Jeff Deist of the Mises […]
Can nano-diamond self-charging batteries change energy forever? Dr. Weiping Yu returns to give us his opinion on this latest curiosity in the world of science. On nuclear energy, Dr. Yu remarks: “Radiation itself is not the problem but the concentration of radiation is the problem.” The physicist also comments on maximizing solar technology with infra-red […]
“Mysterious gamma-ray ‘heartbeat’ detected from cosmic gas cloud.” This is the recent headline running on science news outlets. What could this mean? Physicist Dr. Weiping Yu calls in to offer his startling insights on this story as well as the validity of black hole reports, astronomers spotting a space rock turning into a comet, and […]
