If the Universe is inhabited by older alien civilizations, those who have ventured out to the stars and colonized galaxies, we would expect to see a footprint of extraterrestrial activity. Could the many stars whose brightness has dimmed be indicative of Dyson Spheres or other Megastructures? Could the Cosmic Voids vastly bigger than any galaxy be the work of even greater and older starfaring species?

Superconductors offer us a path to high-efficiency, low-loss power and energy, but the impact they'll have on our civilization through other technologies may be far greater, and we'll explore the science or superconductivity works and what future technology it will of us.

The Impact Of Superconductors

Our future in space may be one of millions or even trillions of vast space station, space habitats, and megastructures. How would a space-faring civilization going about traveling around such an immense solar empire?

Coming and Going: Navigating Space Between Megastructures

Coming and Going: Navigating Space Between Megastructures (Narration Only)

The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence, SETI, relies on looking for signals from distant alien worlds where even very powerful signals can weaken to near nothing. We'll explore today how we, or extraterrestrials, might get around this problem, be it by immense star-powered transmitters or by using laser communication beams.
