Everything Everywhere Daily - The Apollo 1 Disaster
In the early 1960s, the United States was always a step behind the Soviet Union in the space race.
By the mid-1960s, the Americans had caught up. They didn’t have many glamorous firsts, but they were doing increasingly difficult things in space.
All of that came crashing to a halt on January 27, 1967, when three astronauts died in what was a seemingly routine training exercise.
Learn more about the Apollo 1 Disaster, how it happened, and how it influenced the future of the Apollo program on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Everything Everywhere Daily - The Herculaneum Papyri
In the mid-18th century, excavations in the ancient town of Herculaneum, just outside the city of Pompeii and destroyed by the same volcano, discovered something….interesting.
They found a villa that contained 1800 ancient scrolls. Unfortunately, the volcano's heat carbonized them, making them illegible and incredibly fragile. Still, for over 250 years, scholars have hoped that techniques would eventually be developed to allow these scrolls to be read.
That day may have finally arrived.
Learn more about the Herculaneum Papyri and the attempts to read and preserve their ancient knowledge on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
