Professor Paul Steinhardt is a theoretical physicist and cosmologist at Princeton University, Director of the Princeton Centre for Theoretical Science and an author.

Despite Professor Steinhardt's resume reading like a scientist, today's story is closer to that of a crime detective novel than a research project. Join us on a rollercoaster tale as we travel across the world with Professor Steinhardt and his team in search of a new kind of matter.

Expect to meet some crafty Russians, an old lady in Amsterdam, a Romanian man called Tim and an asteroid that no one ever new existed.
