Technologically Speaking host Deepak Saini sits down with Program Manager Brent Talbot to talk about the science behind electromagnetic pulses, known as EMPs, and geomagnetic disturbances. He lifts the lid on the work S&T is doing to think through ways to protect against these energy waves that can knock out the electricity and render mobile devices inoperable.
