Endless Horizons: Space Simplified

In this episode, I talk about two ways the universe could end.

In this episode, I discuss NASA’s plan to construct a space station in orbit of the Moon by 2024

In this episode, I discuss the concept of the Ringworld, an artificial habitat to be built in a distant future.

In this short episode I expand upon the Dyson Sphere with the Matryoshka Brain

In this episode, I explain the concept and engineering behind the Dyson Structure, on of the largest possible constructs in the Universe.

In this episode, I explain the Kardashev Scale of measuring civilizations.

This episode is about Langrange Points, an aspect of orbital mechanics. This is based on an essay written by Neil Degrasse Tyson, titled “The Five Points of Lagrange”.

In this episode, I talk about asteroids, the most terrifying objects in the Solar System.

In this episode, I discuss a theory of Mars being the origin of life in the Solar System, and that life was transported to Earth on asteroids. This theory is put forth by Robert Zubrin in an appendix to his book, the Case for Mars.

In this episode I look at an interesting concept from Buzz Aldrin’s book Mission to Mars

This episode discusses the benefits of international cooperation in space, based on Buzz Aldrin’s book Mission to Mars: My Vision for Space Exploration

In this episode I talk about the Stanford Torus concept and how we could build it.

In this episode, I talk about the Tachyon, a theoretical particle that is confusing to think about. Book: Physics of the Impossible

This episode discusses the concept of the Ramjet Fusion Engine, a current proposal for how we could travel faster than light (or appear to) Book: Physics of the Impossible, by Michio Kaku

In this episode, I look at a classic piece of science fiction, and see how it could become a reality. Book: Physics of the Impossible, by Michio Kaku

In this episode I talk about how string theory allows for a multiverse. Book: Physics of the Impossible by Michio Kaku

In this episode, I continue my exploration of possible future technologies with the Alcubierre Drive. Book: Physics of the Impossible by Michio Kaku

This episode was inspired by Physics of the Impossible by Michio Kaku. I highly recommend reading it for yourself, as he goes into much greater detail. This episode is my take on what I learned from the section of the book about this topic.

This episode kicks off season 2 of Endless Horizons, this season is all about megastructures. Enjoy

In this episode, we explore what a moon colony could do for humanity, and how it could be accomplished.

In this episode, we look at the possibility of a reusable spacecraft, and attempts at making one.

In this episode, we address common misconceptions about how space travel works.

In this episode, we look at the manned missions of the space race

In this episode, we explore the early satellites that started the space race and some of the major accomplishments. DISCLAIMER: not every satellite is in this episode
