002 How the speed of sound could destroy everything

Written By Trace Dominguez
 

This episode only has a little bit of fifing in it; we promise. This time Julian looks into why the Chinese (or anyone else) would send a balloon to do a satellite's job, and Trace explores an alternative universe where a couple of major speed limits are swapped!

QUESTIONS

Julian: "Why use a balloon if you have satellites" from Trace

Trace: "What if the speed of sound was faster than the speed of light" from Julian
