Tonight, we bring you a mossy, madcap episode as we discuss strange news from around the universe, including how the Starliner astronauts are still stuck on the ISS, a certain kind of moss can very likely grow on Mars, the world's fastest supercomputer is already being replaced by something much faster, and we check out news that the bottom of the ocean produces "dark oxygen" without photosynthesis, as well as a controversial geoengineering scheme that is being fought in Martha's Vinyard. All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher reads more from "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
