In the third century BC, Rome faced its greatest enemy.
One man, a Carthaginian general named Hannibal Barca, led an army into the Italian peninsula and terrorized Rome for over a decade, despite having fewer resources and fighting on Rome's home turf.
He handed the Roman Republic many of its most humiliating defeats and, in the process, developed a reputation as the greatest general in the ancient world.
Learn about the Second Punic War and Hannibal’s campaign against Rome on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Never Ending Voyager Missions
In 1977, NASA took advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime alignment of the planets to send two probes to the outermost reaches of the solar system.
They sent back the best images and data yet available about Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
The program was a smashing success.
However, the probes didn’t stop traveling. They kept going and going, all the while maintaining contact with Earth. They ended up teaching us far more about the Solar System than we ever expected.
Learn more about the never-ending Voyager Program and how spacecraft half a century old are still performing valuable science on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Leonardo da Vinci
On April 15, 1452, a child was born, the illegitimate son of a peasant woman and a local notary in the village of Vinci, which was then part of the Republic of Florence.
Given his illegitimate status, no one expected much of the young man, so he was apprenticed in the studio of a local artist.
He would go on to become, not just one of the world’s greatest artists, but one of the earliest engineers and proto-scientists of the Renaissance.
He made such a lasting impact that his name has become known around the world over 500 years later.
Learn more about Leonardo da Vinci and how he changed the world on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Long Telegram
On February 22, 1946, George F. Kennan, a career diplomat working in the American embassy in Moscow, sent an 8,000-word cable to the State Department in Washington.In it, he explained why the Soviet Union behaved as it did, outlining its unique combination of a communist ideology and historical Russian paranoia and suspicion.
He also gave a prescription for how the United States should respond.
Although he couldn’t have known it at the time, that message became the foundation for American policy during the Cold War.
Learn more about the Long Telegram and how it influenced American foreign policy during the Cold War on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
