We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!

In this episode of Discover Daily, we delve into the latest maritime crisis in the Baltic Sea, where the Estlink 2 power cable connecting Finland and Estonia has suffered significant damage. The investigation centers on the Eagle S tanker, part of Russia's shadow fleet, as NATO and European nations respond with enhanced security measures and cutting-edge underwater surveillance technology to protect critical infrastructure.
We then journey to Antarctica to track A23a, the world's largest iceberg, as it embarks on an extraordinary voyage after being grounded for over three decades. This colossal ice formation, larger than Rhode Island, has provided scientists with unprecedented insights into ocean dynamics through its interaction with a fascinating phenomenon known as a Taylor column, which caused the massive iceberg to spin at 15 degrees per day.
The episode culminates with groundbreaking research revealing the surprisingly slow processing speed of the human brain - just 10 bits per second - despite receiving billions of bits of sensory input. This discovery has profound implications for our understanding of cognitive limitations, decision-making processes, and the future development of artificial intelligence systems that could better mirror human cognitive architecture.
