Aircraft, Tilapia, Laser Danger

S15, E1: Military aircraft are increasingly being exposed to electromagnetic interference whether the source is natural, like lightning strikes, or human produced, like radars. In extreme cases it could result in weapons being released without pressing a button. Dr Graham Phillips investigates the tests being conducted to help determine the susceptibility of military aircraft to AEI. The Tilapia fish, aka the Mozambique Mouthbrooder, is an exotic invasive species introduced in Australia in the seventies, which is taking hold in Queensland rivers. Anja Taylor investigates new DNA technology which detects Tilapia in waterways. This research may help prevent devastating infestations from occurring. Despite tough regulations, lasers are still widely available in Australia. Ruben Meerman demonstrates the power of lasers and reveals what makes them so dangerous.
