Dark Energy

Today we're teaming up with Joe Scott to look at the Great Attractor, a mysterious and massive source of gravity obscured from our vision, and the concept of Dark Flow, movements of whole clusters of galaxies in directions with no obvious cause.

Dark Flow & The Great Attractor

A look at advanced means of altering or controlling the planet's climate and geography, drawing on concepts  proposed for terraforming other planets. We look at existing and proposed ideas of controlling the weather, creating artificial islands or mountain ranges, using orbital mirrors and shades, and many other concepts.

Weather Control

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?

Quantum Computing

This episode begins our look at solutions to the Fermi Paradox - the question of why the Universe appears empty of intelligent life besides ourselves - by looking at some of the reasons why life may simply be very uncommon. Before we can contemplate what might be special about Earth, we first need to consider what might be special about our region of space, and even our epoch of time, or our Universe itself.

Great Filters: Space & Time

We return to the Megastructures series to examine the the concept of a Dyson Sphere, a means of enclosing a star to gather all of it energy. We will look at myths and misconceptions about Dyson Spheres, as well as a number of additional purposes they can be put to, from allowing interstellar travel to generating black holes or running computers large enough to simulate whole Universes.

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.

Fermi Paradox Great Filters: Rare Earth (Narration Only)

Force fields are a staple of science fiction, but usually regarded as only science fiction, not science fact. Today we'll examine the notion and see what options we might have inside known science, as well as what alternatives might achieve similar effects.

It is often suggested that the reason we don't hear from alien civilizations is that they are in hiding. In this episode, we will explore that notion, and examine why a civilization might hide and how they would go about doing it.

Rare Intelligence

The possibility of Artificial Intelligence turning on humanity has been a concern for as long as we've had computers. Today we will look at some of those fears and see which ones might be valid and which might not be cause for alarm.

Machine Rebellion

A discussion of various theories for the End of the Universe.
How the Universe began and why is a question that's obsessed humanity for at least as long as civilization has existed, at the same time, how it will end has equally fascinated us. Today we are joined by Astrophysicist Paul Sutter for a two-part episode looking at the science and history of how the Universe came to be and may end.

The Compendium Of Doom

Ever since we started finding fossils of long extinct species we've dreamed of getting to meet them, either by finding some secluded group of survivors, using a time machine, or resurrecting them. As our knowledge of genetics grows, this last option is fast approaching as a possible reality and raises many additional concerns about the technical and ethical challenges, not least of which is where to put them, with their former environments now used by people or other critters. We will examine these challenges today.

De-Extinction: Resurrecting the Past

Teleportation is a staple of science fiction, and today we will examine the idea to see if there are any ways under known science that might permit it, as well as discuss some novel uses for the technology that tend to be overlooked.

Teleportation

Many of the strongest limitations on our technology and civilization at this time are from problems moving energy around with us, in a way which is light, energy dense, and cheap. Today we'll look at some ways we might increase that vastly, and challenges to do that and the impact such dense portable power would have.

Portable Power

Space is an incredibly harsh and immense environment absent of everything we need to live, and abundant only in harsh radiation and dangerous micro-meteors. Today we will examine how those will impact humans who come to dwell on space ships or habitats.

Astronomers have been looking for signs of extraterrestrial signals for decades, and not yet found any. Today we will examine the notion of Interstellar Beacons and ask just how far away you can be heard if you want to be.

Alien Beacons

This episode begins an in-depth look at Post-Scarcity Civilizations, seeming Utopias where virtually anything is available to its citizens at the snap of their fingers.
