How To Solve Any Problem Using Enrico Fermi’s Back-Of-The-Envelope Math (And Some Common Sense)

In 1945, as the first atomic bomb exploded in the New Mexico desert, Enrico Fermi stood miles away, holding a few scraps of ...

The Most Vexing Variable in the Search for E.T.

This is the last of three blog posts associated with this week’s episode of Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey, which addresses life in the universe. Read the first and second here. Someday, in the not too ...

The Electric-Car Equation No One Wants to Talk About: One EV = 90 Hybrids
