In this episode, we discuss viruses and why the topic of new infections hasn't gone away: what's really known about Ebola and the hantavirus. We also discuss one of the strongest arguments against creationism: why the structure of living nature doesn't look like a perfectly designed system, but rather the result of a long, brutal, and often absurd evolutionary history. We touch on the bioforming of planets: is it ever possible to transform dead worlds into habitable ones, and how far humanity is even capable of going in managing life beyond Earth.
