#82 - Space Colonisation, Super Mario and Lost Children.
1. Humans and Space Colonisation
By now you probably now that I’m a huge fan of Tim Urban and Whaitbutwhy. His new Article, a 40’000 Word heavy Beast, is a Blast. Analysing and explaining nothing more than the story of humans and space travel, Elon Musk’s SpaceX Program and the colonisation of Mars.
Well worth the read and enough brain food for your entire weekend.

Super Mario, our favourite Hero, might be one of the greatest evil villains. Why that might be and why that matters for human psychology, explained in one video. fantastic.
3. Mothers of ISIS
In the last four years, over 3000 foreign people from western countries travelled to Syria and Iraq to fight for radical groups like ISIS. Leaving everything behind, first and foremost their families. The very touching stories of four women who have lost a child to ISIS.
