In 1475, Michelangelo Buonarroti was born in Caprese, Italy. 

Over the next 88 years, he left a legacy of paintings and sculptures unlike any artist before or since. 

His art shaped the city he came from, the era he lived in, and, eventually, the entire world of Western art. 

Today, the works he created are some of the most treasured and valuable artworks in the entire world. 

Learn more about Michelangelo and how he became the greatest artist of the Renaissance on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Earlier this month, novelist and poet Jason Reynolds received a grant from the MacArthur Foundation for his work "depicting the rich inner lives of kids of color." The latest example of that work is Twenty-Four Seconds from Now..., Reynolds' new young adult novel. The book follows a young Black couple, Neon and Aria, high school seniors who face a potential split as one of them prepares to attend college. The novel explores the couple's decisions around love and intimacy as they navigate their relationship while receiving mixed advice from parents and friends. In today's episode, Reynolds speaks with NPR's Scott Simon about how rare it is for love stories to be narrated by Black boys and the complexity of young men's interior lives, especially around topics like body image and sex.

NASA's Europa Clipper took off earlier this week, headed for Jupiter's fourth-largest moon. Etched on the outside of the spacecraft is a poem by U.S. Poet Laureate Ada Limón called "In Praise of Mystery." Now, that poem, which celebrates human curiosity, has been adapted into a picture book by the same name, illustrated by Peter Sís. In today's episode, Limón speaks with NPR's Mary Louise Kelley about her collaboration with Sís and how to write a poem with staying power across time and space. Finally, Limón reads her poem out loud.

On December 25, 2021, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope was launched from the European Space Agency launch center in French Guyana. 

After six months of testing and configuring the telescope, in July of 2022, its first images were transmitted. 

Since then, we have received a flood of images and data that have caused astronomers to rethink much of what we know about the universe. 

Learn more about the discoveries made by the James Webb Space Telescope so far on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
