    Modern Space Race, Space Defense and Star Trek-Inspired GO-2 | RC 61

    The new space race has sparked growing concerns about heightened space defence measures in recent months. The statement from White House spokesperson John Kirby came a day after a senior House Republican issued an ambiguous warning about a "significant national security threat." Kevin Lausten, President of Morpheus Space, joins me to discuss the modern-day space race, space defence, space mobility and Morpheus Space's latest achievement, the GO-2, which bears a striking resemblance to a Star Trek Borg Cube.

    Science Behind Science Fiction: Edward Lerner Explores the Interplay of Fact and Sci-fi in Culture of | RC

    Science Behind Science Fiction: Edward Lerner Explores the Interplay of Fact and Sci-fi in Culture of | RC

    Did you know that of the current top five-grossing films of all time, only Titanic is outside the science fiction genre?
    Science fiction isn't just popular; it's central to the history of film in North American culture itself. The move to narrative filmmaking, which defined cinema as we know it today, is widely associated with the work of Georges Méliès around the turn of the 20th century.
    Méliès, an illusionist, saw the potential of film for creating special effects. He experimented with this new technology through a series of fantastical tales. His most influential film, A Trip to the Moon, depicts a group of astronomers traveling to the Moon, exploring its surface, battling its inhabitants, and returning to Earth – all within 15 minutes. This short film pushed the boundaries of what was possible for the medium and shaped the future of cinema. What's remarkable is that A Trip to the Moon came out in 1902, 67 years before Neil Armstrong took one giant leap for mankind. It's a perfect example of how scientific achievements are often first imagined in the realm of fiction. 
    Edward Lerner physicist, computer scientist, science fiction and techno-thrillers novelist deconstructs the Science Behind the Fiction and the intriguing connections between scientific fact and its influence on science fiction within Western culture.

    Jeffrey J. Kripal UAP, Theology, Science, Religious Tribalism and Humanity's Place in the Cosmos | RC 58

    Jeffrey J. Kripal UAP, Theology, Science, Religious Tribalism and Humanity's Place in the Cosmos | RC 58

    The division between humanities and sciences in the study of UFOs and the exploration of the possibility of intelligent life elsewhere in the cosmos has become a common practice. But why? Why can't either of these fields find common ground in an area of study that no one has a definite answer to?
    Jeffrey J. Kripal, a professor who holds the J. Newton Rayzor Chair in Philosophy and Religious Thought at Rice University, joins me in a discussion on various intersections of UAP, Theology and science. Though out of discussion we stubble into our human inherent religious tribalism. Is this hindering our progression of understanding our place in the cosmos in light of potential life elsewhere? And why in Abrahamic regions we view ETs "as us and them, and God is on our side." Meanwhile taking a deeper look at why some experiencers turn to myths and symbols of Christian demonology for answers.

    UFO Historian David Marler Examines UAPs: Echoes of History Repeating Itself? | RC57

    The mystery of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) has captivated UFO historians for over 70 years. Do recent UAP developments within the government and the media mirror past events, suggesting a repetition of history? Have we failed to learn from our past mistakes? David Marler, an author, UFO historian, and the Founder of the National UFO Historical Records Center, analyzes how current UAP developments compare to historical events and examines materials recently obtained by The Aerial Phenomena Research Organization (APRO) in his collection.
