Undark: Truth, Beauty, Science
Summary: Undark is delighted to announce that it is relaunching its podcast to extend its prizewinning, feature-length narrative journalism to a new format. We'll be taking a short hiatus over the summer and be back in the fall to continue our mission of illuminating the places where science intersects — and sometimes collides — with our everyday lives as a 25-minute audio documentary. Scientific questions and challenges, after all, are woven deeply into our politics, our economics, our culture — and they are animated by a wide spectrum of competing values and interests. Our goal is to present rich, narrative-driven audio stories of science as it manifests amid that push-and-pull of human society.
