Isaac Arthur Narration Only

A look at various Cataclysmic Scenarios in terms of how they factor into the Fermi Paradox. We'll look at everything from Biowarfare and AI to Nukes and Grey Goo


FP03 - Apocalypse How

By contemplating the idea of what true Kardashev 2 and 3 civilizations might look like, in the context of Megastructures, we re-assess the Fermi Paradox and come up with a new question, no longer "Why can't we see any alien civilizations?" but why we can see any stars in the night sky at all.

FP02 - Dyson Dilemma

This series takes a look at concepts for everything from Terraforming Planets and Interstellar Colonization to more down to Earth matters like Arcologies and Planet Wide Cities before examining using black holes as power sources for starships.We then leap into the far distance future at the end of time to examine civilizations surviving around black holes after all the stars have died out.

CS03 - The Impact Of Nuclear Fusion

This videos covers two topics, the Anthropic Principle, which uses the idea that your own existence might skew the odds of events you witness, and the basic concepts of Super-Intelligence, and what we might expect of humans or artificial intelligence that achieve that.

EC04 The Anthropic Principle And Super Intelligence

A look at Dark Matter, what it is, what it isn't, and what it might be used for.

Dark Matter

This episode focuses on many of the problems with travel between stars at relativistic velocities, like collision avoidance, radiation, ship geometry, armor, and point-defense. 

We will also look at some of the possible engine types and discuss realistic maximum speeds they offer.

Life Extension

In this episode we continue our look at possible Alien Civilizations by discussing language and communication. How could we translate their language? How would they translate ours? What modes of communication are available besides sight and sound?

Upward Bound: Getting into Space

The Orbital Ring is a type of launch-assist system that goes beyond moving small ships and crews into space and allows cheap movement of bulk cargo up to space, into orbit, and beyond.

In the previous episode we saw how civilizations might not simply survive after all the stars in the Universe had died, but might indeed  thrive far better during the Black Hole Era of the Universe. Today, we will go beyond even the Dark Era to examine the concepts or Iron Star Civilizations, Boltzmann Brains, Reversible Computing, and even reversing Entropy itself.

Civilizations at the End of Time: Iron Stars (Narration Only)

We begin the new Outward Bound series by discussing the Colonization of Mars, and survey all the colonizing and terraforming options from the early settlement days to the far future and a Green Mars. 

We will also look at alternatives to terraforming which might make more sense for Mars, like bioforming the people to the environment, rather than terraforming it to our environment.

Digital Death (Narration Only)

Today we discuss the concept of trade throughout a colonized solar system, and ask how viable it is and what challenged it faces.

While Interplanetary trade faces many challenges, Interstellar Trade faces even more, this episode will seek to examine in detail what can be traded between worlds, what probably can't, and what technologies might impact that.

A look at creating artificial planets, ones vastly bigger than Earth.
Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/
We return to the Megastructures series to discuss various ways of creating artificial planets, the special issues with making an Earth-like planet much larger or smaller than Earth, and the maximum size they can be, potentially larger than entire solar systems.

Mega Earths (Narration Only)

Jupiter and its moon are a rarely considered prospect for colonization, but potentially the ripest opportunity for it in the solar system. In this episode of the Outward Bound series we will examine the options for colonizing each of Jupiter's primary moons and even discuss ways to colonize the giant planet itself.

Self - Replicating Machine (Narration Only)

A journey out to the stars to colonize Alpha Centauri
Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/
We've looked at colonizing our own solar system, from Mars to Venus, and all the way inward to the Sun itself and out to the dark edges of the Oort Cloud. In this episode we conclude the Outward Bound Series by heading to our nearest neighboring star system, Alpha Centauri, and look at the trials and tribulations of colonizing binary star systems and red dwarves.

In memory of Link 
(2008 – Feb 20, 2018)
You will be missed my furry friend

Colonizing Alpha Centauri (Narration Only)

Today we take a trip inward, to explore Sun-Scorched Mercury.

Mercury is the nearest planet to the Sun, a seeming airless wasteland little discussed in conversations about colonizing our solar system. Today we will challenge that, and show that Mercury may be one of the most promising places for humanity to make new homes on.

Colonizing Mercury (Narration Only)

A look at the possibility of future civilizations rising and falling. 
It's long been observed that empires tend to rise and fall in a seeming cycle, never identical but sharing many similarities. Today we will examine the idea that this may be the reason that we have encountered no advanced civilizations in our own galaxy, and that the solution the Fermi Paradox, as to why we have seen no alien civilizations, may be that they are caught in a perpetual loop. Unable or unwilling to use technology which might allow them to travel the cosmos. We will also consider if such a loop may await us, or that we are already in it.

Technology may one day grant us a Utopia in which virtually all tasks are performed by robots and artificial intelligence. In such a post-scarcity civilization, people may have difficulty finding a purpose to existence. Today we will explore how this may come about, what the consequences of this existential threat might be, and what purposes people may find for themselves in such a  future.

Purpose (Narration Only)

A visit to Ceres and the Asteroid Belt.
Ceres, a dwarf planet amid the Asteroid Belt, hold the potential to be the hub of a vast mining and manufacturing network in the Belt, as well as potentially growing the food to support future colonists. Today we'll look at colonizing Ceres and asteroid mining, faming in space, and a potential distant future of a developed asteroid belt.

Colonizing Ceres (Narration Only)

Today we will begin our look at the spaceships we might use for colonizing interstellar space in the future. In order to cover the vast distances between even the nearest stars in our galaxy within the boundaries of known physics, we need vessels able to voyage at high speeds for very long periods of time while carrying everything they need to colonize another solar system, a concept typically known as a space ark or generation ship. We will explore the challenges and options for such a vessel, as well as some alternative approaches to the problem.
