A mission to study one of the solar system's most promising environments is underway.
NASA's Europa Clipper spacecraft was designed to explore its namesake, Jupiter's moon Europa, launched on Monday from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
Europa Clipper will serve as the organization's first spacecraft dedicated to studying an ice-covered ocean world in our solar system.
It aims to determine whether the moon could be habitable for life as we know it. The spacecraft will carry nine instruments and a gravity experiment intended to investigate the ocean beneath Europa's thick ice shell.
We discuss the mission with Author David W. Brown. His latest book, "The Mission," chronicles the quest to study this remarkable celestial body.

Lost Debate - America’s Economy v. the World, Trump v. Harris on Education Policy
Ravi dives into a new series from The Economist that examines how the U.S. economy has outperformed much of the world over the past 30 years and the key factors driving the country’s success.
Next, he sits down with Beth Hawkins from The 74 to discuss the key differences between the presidential candidates’ proposed education policies and how Project 2025 could impact America’s schools. They then turn to New Orleans, where it’s been nearly two decades since Hurricane Katrina forced a full reinvention of the city’s schools. Ravi and Beth explore the lessons learned over the past 20 years and explain why the future of education policy could hinge on perceptions of New Orleans’ educational progress.

State of the World from NPR - What to Know About the Salmon on Your Plate
Norway is the largest exporter of salmon in the world. And while some of those fish are wild-caught, many are raised in "fish farms"- large cylindrical pens made of nylon in the open water. Sometimes these farmed fish escape, mixing with the local population and causing ecological issues. We see farmed fish in a Norwegian fjord and hear about potential solutions to the problem.

This Machine Kills - 375. Of Vampires and Empires (ft. Paris Marx)
We are joined by a dear friend of the show, Paris Marx, to talk about his new series on Tech Won’t Save Us called “Data Vampires” – which provides an excellent deep dive into the politics, ideologies, and consequences of the global expansion of data centers by big tech giants. Data Vampires is full of original research and interviews, plus excellent production. We touch on some of the series’ major themes before going down our own rabbit holes discussing the geopolitics of data centers as a form of imperial infrastructure for techno-capitalism.
