Learning English Podcast - Insects & Light, Research Corrections, NASA's Ingenuity

Dan Novak and Ashley Thompson host today's Learning English show.

First: Researchers believe that artificial lights at night may cause problems with flying insects’ natural navigation systems. John Russell reports.

Then: Some people look for mistakes in scientific publications in their free time. Such investigation has led one major cancer hospital and research center in the U.S. to request withdrawals or corrections to at least 37 research papers.

Next: The LE Science and Technology Report. NASA’s experimental helicopter, Ingenuity, has officially ended its service on Mars after what the U.S. space agency called a “history-making” mission. Bryan Lynn has the story. After the report, Bryan joins Dan Novak in the studio for a talk about the report.

Then, it's time for the LE Lesson of the Day. Andrew Smith and Jill Robbins base their instruction on the LE video series Let's Learn English. They teach about reflexive pronouns. Stick around and you, yourself, will learn a lot!

Dan and Ashley close the show.
