Adventures in Research

King of Clocks

by

Adventures in Research presents stories about scientific discovery and the people, ideas, and investigations behind it. The program turns research into radio storytelling, bringing listeners into a world where questions lead to experiments and unexpected findings.

Each installment offers a dramatized account centered on a particular subject. The episode title, “King of Clocks,” points to a story involving timekeeping, presented in the program’s accessible, educational style.

The result is a blend of science and drama: a way to encounter research through narrative rather than a lecture. Its appeal lies in making technical subjects approachable while preserving the sense of curiosity and discovery that drives scientific inquiry.
