Discussion on a polar bear-inspired fiber with limited scalability for clothing and the discovery of a fossilized juvenile Tyrannosaurus and its diet and lifestyle.
In this episode of the Nature Podcast, we catch up on some science stories from the holiday period by diving into the Nature Briefing.
We chat about: an extra-warm sweater inspired by polar bear fur; the fossil find revealing what a juvenile tyrannosaur liked to snack on; why scientists are struggling to open OSIRIS-REx’s sample container; how 2023 was a record for retractions; and how cats like to play fetch, sometimes.
