Focus
Focus, or Focus 580, was WILL Radio's flagship talk program from 1981 until 2014. David Inge was the host from 1981 until his retirement in 2012. Always engaging, the program acted as a resource for citizens to directly question politicians and candidates as well as keep up on the arts, science, health, and even the latest from well-known novelists.
The Focus archive below offers thousands of great interviews and serves as a time capsule and a great resource for researchers and those just curious about how influential people spoke of important topics as they were happening.
Cosmic Collisions: How Astronomers are Saving the World
Guest: David Morrison.
The age of the dinosaurs ended some 65 million years ago when a large asteroid hit the Earth. What are the chances that sometime in the future, Earth would again be a target? Today on Focus, our guest will be David Morrison, Senior Scientist at the NASA Astrobiology Institute. He says a large impact is not expected in our lifetime... but the possibility is still out there. Today he'll talk about the effort to chart large objects in space that have the potential to strike the Earth.
