Israeli Trailblazers Show
Walk away from every episode smarter, more amazed, and seeing the world a little differently. Here's the secret: strangers you've never met are making your life easier, safer and healthier right now — and you're about to meet them. Wildfires stopped before the fire trucks leave the station. Cancer caught in five minutes, from your couch. Seizures predicted hours ahead. All from a country the size of New Jersey — the one the world can't stop arguing about. Elon Musk calls Israel #1 in innovation per capita. Host Jennifer Weissmann introduces you to the innovators, researchers, and thinkers behind the breakthroughs you rely on every single day.

Satellite System That Spots a Single Burning Tree From Space — Terra Space Labs
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The difference between a home and a memory can come down to minutes. The best fire-detection systems on the ground can only spot a blaze once it's already visible. By then, it's often too late. A former Israeli defense engineer spent thirty years working with classified satellite technology — then asked a different question: what if you could detect a single burning tree from space and alert a fire department before the fire even became a fire? Terra Space Labs built that system. One burning tree spotted from orbit. A fire department alerted in seconds. Your neighborhood still standing. In this episode, the founder explains how it works.
