Unearth the expired ideas, outdated facts, and incorrect assumptions that litter the canon of scientific knowledge. Inspired by our annual Cemetery of Dead Science, tonight's program will dig deeper into scientific theories that have been overturned by new discoveries and correction of bias, some of which still haunt us today!
