Brian Noonan and Parker cover everything from shooting stars to floating technology. With the Lyrid Meteor Shower lighting up Wisconsin skies, Brian talks through the basics of catching the best view, while Parker imagines a world where everyone just lays back and watches the stars.

Then they shift to a wild new idea from Panthalasa: floating data centers powered by wave energy. The ocean-based centers could generate power without taking up land or driving up costs. Brian and Parker weigh the pros and cons, joke through the possibilities, and wonder if the next generation might actually make it happen.
