The Physics of Santa
How does Santa make it to all those houses in just one night, unobserved? Physics! Advanced surveillance technology, light-bending metamaterials, and wormholes in the fabric of space-time may all play a role. Join Ira in this segment of Science Friday for a conversation with author Gregory Mone, author of a new book on the science of Santa.
