A Wild Idea to Protect the Great Barrier Reef | Nautilus Narrations with Summer Collins
Following devastating heat waves in 2016 and 2017 that caused intense bleaching on the Great Barrier Reef, it was impossible to ignore the existential vulnerability of coral in a warming world. In response, Australia’s government established the Reef Restoration and Adaptation Program (RRAP). Their mission: figure out how to protect the reef. David Mead, the program’s director, called it a “no-stone-unturned approach.”In this episode of Nautilus Narrations, coral biologist and science Communicator Summer Collins reads 'A Wild Idea to Protect the Great Barrier Reef (https://bit.ly/4dl7Z4R)' by Juli Berwald from Nautilus Magazine, and explores some of the fascinating new ways scientists are trying to protect reefs from extinction.

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Uncertainty | Nautilus Narrations with Paul M. Sutter
"Quantum mechanics is confusing, nonintuitive, and seemingly nonsensical. What I found through my journey is that this confusion and senselessness isn’t a bug, but a feature, and creates a new way to see our everyday life," writes cosmologist Paul M. Sutter (https://bit.ly/4d0AJjs)."Instead of interpreting quantum mechanics, I ultimately realized, maybe we should just submit to it—and let quantum mechanics interpret our own lives."In this episode of Nautilus Narrations, join Sutter on his journey through the four stages of “quantum grief" and find out how he learned to stop worrying, and love uncertainty.
