This week’s stories are all about chasing answers. But also bugs, and clouds, and billion-year-old space rocks.

We’re hearing from some computer scientists who are chasing dragonflies and mosquitoes to help build better robots.

We’re checking in with your local meteorite chasers, who have a plan to get their space rocks fresh.

And we’re meeting some cloud chasers too – but not the kind who are obsessed with the weather.
