Mars: From Science Fiction to Science Fact
We explore the history and future of missions to Mars
Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/
You can see part 1 here: https://youtu.be/Pv7aigOzQKo
For years following the Moon landings it seemed liked Mars would be our next step and sooner than later, but the costs and risks discouraged interest for around a decade after that. We pick up from part 1 when renewed interest arose and examine many of the more recent plans and what options they give us for manned missions to the Red Planet in the next decade.

De-Extinction: Resurrecting the Past
Use my link http://www.audible.com/isaac or text isaac to 500-500 to get a FREE audiobook and 30-day free trial!
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.

The Compendium of Doom, Part 1
A discussion of various theories for the End of the Universe.
Watch part 2 here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLTb0V1BGNw
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.

Outward Bound: Colonizing the Sun
We contemplate colonizing planets, but what about the stars themselves?
Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/
Containing virtually all the mass and resources of the solar system, the Sun, the Sun is the ultimate asset for a growing interplanetary civilization. While typically assumed too hot to touch and so out of our reach, we will challenge that notion today.

Intergalactic Colonization
We often discuss the notion of settling the galaxy but do we need to stop there? This episode will examine the additional difficulties with traveling between galaxies and ask just how far we might be able to journey even without faster than light travel.

The concept of Interstellar Empires has fascinated us for as long as we've know those stars in the night sky were other solar systems, and it's become a staple of science fiction. But rarely do we consider how realistic such galaxy-spanning confederations are, and what special challenges they'd face.

Outward Bound: Colonizing the Oort Cloud
Could the cold outer reaches of the solar system ever be called home?
Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/
Far beyond even Pluto and the Kuiper Belt is a vast and mostly empty region of space that we theorize may contain trillions of comets and other icy bodies. Frozen and barren though they would be, we will consider how they might one day become thriving and comfortable habitats for us.

Hive Minds
The concept of linking many minds together to act in concert, or even fuse into a new singular entity, has been popular in science fiction for decades. Today we will explore the idea and Networked Intelligence in general, to see how realistic it is, and what benefits or concerns might arise from it.

Uplifting Animal & Aliens, Part 1 of 2
The concept of enhancing and augmenting animal minds & bodies to be able to use and understand human technology, known as Uplifting, has long fascinated us. Today in this two-part collaboration with John Michael Godier, we will explore this concept as well as the possibility of using such technology with alien races, the polar opposite of the classic Star Trek Prime Directive.

Smug Aliens
We continue our look at hypothetical Alien Civilizations by examining concepts such as Zoo Hypothesis - that aliens may be keeping us secluded from the rest of the galaxy - and the motivation for non-interference, such as the Star Trek Prime Directive.

Megastructures: Ringworlds
Use my link http://www.audible.com/isaac and get a free audio book with a 30 day trial!
Ringworlds are a type of megastructure that engulf an entire star, first popularized in Larry Niven's classic novel Ringworld. These constructs a million times larger than Earth have captivated minds for nearly half a century but been considered impossible to build under known science.
