While we may all know that Spider-Man isn't actually real, it's fun to imagine what is possible in the superhero world, from their abilities, to the limits of human physical capabilities, and see how we might, someday, bridge those two. In this episode, Spidey Librarian is joined once again by Andrew Zimmerman Jones, who will lend his scientific acumen to the discussion of whether or not web-swinging is possible, and how close we might get to doing it the way our wonderful webslinger does it! Prepare for a free-wheeling and fun discussion about how much science is in the way of Spider-Fans' fantasies! To see some of Andrew's work on his book, String Theory for Dummies, look here: https://bit.ly/43JmfyF You can find him on Facebook and Twitter under the handle @azjauthor.
