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.

MS04 Rotating Habitats

A in-depth look at KIC 8462582, also known as Tabby's Star. We'll explore how this star became famous for an anomaly, what that anomaly was, and the various theories for what might be causing it.

FP04 - Tabby's Star

CS07 - Micro Black Holes And Hawking Radiation

CS06 - Interstellar Colonization

CS04 - Moon Base Concepts

CS03 - The Impact Of Nuclear Fusion

CS02 - Ecumenopolises

CS01 - Arcologies

CS00 - Intro

In this Episode we examine the concept of the Simulation Hypothesis, which proposes a mathematical argument that we are almost certainly simulations running on a computer.

EC01 Transhumanism And Immortality

This series looks at a number of concepts in science and technology that challenge our fundamental notions of Life, the Universe, and Everything... including our own existence.

EC00 Intro

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

Dark Matter

This episode continues our look at Colonizing Space by examining the idea of Asteroid Mining and setting up colonies on Asteroids. We explore the science as well as practical issues of engineering, economics, legality, and psychology of such distant outposts.

CS04b - Asteroid Mining

This episode begins a three-part series focusing more on the specifics of colonization including human aspect of it. We lay the groundwork by looking at colonies just in our solar system before moving off in episodes two and three to look at life on colony ships and then on interstellar colonies.

Life In A Space Colony Episode 1

This episode  is the second of a three-part series focusing more on the specifics of colonization including human aspect of it. Having laid the groundwork last time, we now ask ourselves what the ships carrying people to new worlds would be like, and what life aboard them would be like.

Life In A Space Colony Episode 3 (Narration Only)

In this episode we examine the concept of a Space Elevator, a popular piece of developing technology designed to lift people and cargo into space at a fraction of normal launch costs. We will look at technology as well as many of the misconceptions about Space Elevators which have emerged.
