This study challenges long-held assumptions and uses seismic wave data to illustrate how these large low velocity provinces differ in density and material, impacting the planet's heat extraction from the core and potentially affecting the stability of Earth's magnetic field.Confirmation of Mars as a Blue PlanetNew evidence from ancient Martian river deltas suggests that Mars was once covered by a vast ocean. High-resolution images reveal delta-like structures, indicating that water once flowed into an ocean approximately 3 billion years ago. This discovery supports the notion of a once habitable environment on Mars, offering insights into its geological history and the potential for life.Galaxies Growing Through Cool Gas FilamentsA fascinating new study has demonstrated how galaxies can rapidly grow by drawing in filaments of cool gas. Observations from the Keck Telescope's Cosmic Webb Imager provide direct evidence of these gas streams spiraling into galaxies, fueling star formation at unprecedented rates. This research offers significant insights into the processes of galaxy formation and the role of the cosmic web in shaping the universe.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesScientific ReportsMPJ Space ExplorationNature AstronomyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) Distinct histories of Earth's mantle provinces(00:12:15) Mars confirmed as a blue planet with ancient ocean(00:25:30) Galaxies grow rapidly through cool gas filaments(00:35:00) Discovery of the oldest known rock art in the world.

Every summer, millions of birds flock to the Arctic Circle to find mates and raise their young. In a study published in 2025, paleontologists found evidence of the earliest known Arctic breeding colony from fossils uncovered in northern Alaska. The site dates back nearly 73 million years when many prehistoric predecessors to modern birds still had teeth; including the gull-like ichthyornitheans and the flightless, loon-like hesperornitheans. These were among several types of ancient avians preserved as both adults and hatchlings, which suggests the site was used for nesting. Just like today, these birds were likely taking advantage of the abundant food provided by the 24-hours of summer daylight.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

Long before Antarctica was ever discovered, people already believed it existed. Ancient philosophers and mapmakers imagined a massive southern continent—Terra Australis—balancing the world, a phantom land drawn onto maps centuries before anyone laid eyes on it. But when explorers finally reached the far south in the 1800s, they found something far stranger than myth: a frozen world that seemed to distort not just navigation, but perception itself.In this episode, the boys journey through the eerie history of Antarctica—from ancient legends and early expeditions to unsettling ghost stories and modern conspiracies. They explore accounts from polar explorers who claimed to hear voices in abandoned huts, feel unseen presences in the darkness, and even encounter mysterious “third companions” during near-death journeys across the ice.The story then descends into the continent's real-world anomalies: blood-red waterfalls pouring from glaciers, massive lakes hidden under miles of ice, and warm volcanic caves that may harbor unknown ecosystems beneath the coldest place on Earth.But Antarctica's strangest chapter may have come after World War II. The episode examines Nazi expeditions to the continent, unexplained submarine disappearances, and the U.S. Navy's massive Operation Highjump—led by Admiral Richard Byrd—followed by his unsettling warnings about aircraft coming from the polar regions.Finally, the episode confronts the biggest question of all: why did every major world power agree to lock away an entire continent under the Antarctic Treaty? With no military allowed, no permanent population, and strict global control, Antarctica remains the only place on Earth that truly feels off-limits.Not because of what is known.But because of what might still be buried under the ice.www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

Christopher O'Brien has a new book out entitled. Stalking the Herd, which is one of the most the most thoroughly researched books ever published on Cattle Mutilations. In part one of this interview, we discuss the phenomena in general, we talk about it's history, and the first cases. We do get into the levels of high strangeness, as well as the mundane cases. Chris will be back in June for Part 2. From 1992 to 2002 Christopher O'Brien investigated over one thousand paranormal events reported in the San Luis Valley—located in south-central Colorado/north-central New Mexico. Working with law enforcement officials, ex-military, ranchers and an extensive network of skywatchers, he documented what may have been the most intense wave of unexplained activity ever seen in a single region of North America. His ten-year investigation resulted in the three books of his “mysterious valley” trilogy: The Mysterious Valley, Enter the Valley, and Secrets of the Mysterious Valley. His meticulous field investigation of UFO reports, unexplained livestock deaths, Native American legends, cryptozoology, secret military activity and the folklore, found in the world's largest alpine valley, has produced one of the largest databases of unusual occurrences gathered from a single geographic region. He is currently working with a team of specialists installing a high-tech video surveillance and hard-data monitoring system in and around the San Luis Valley. He has also authored Stalking the Tricksters which is published by Adventures Unlimited Press. This controversial book distills his years of field investigation and research into an ingenious unified paranormal theory that is sure to create intense interest and controversy.

On this special Friday edition of the show, we watch and listen to a short mockumentary from 2008 called The Orion Conspiracy. The film is a briefing of important officials on issues such as UFOs, giant bones, pyramids, psychic powers, occultism, and even 9/11. Its purpose was to show how gullible people are; and it worked far beyond what the director intended to be more of a joke. Countless laughably fake images from the film have been shared at conferences, in documentaries, on television, etc. The most famous by far is an image of a UFO crashed in the ice of Antarctica.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Baalbek is situated in Lebanon and there's one question about it everyone keeps asking: who placed all these massive stones here? It is the site of one of the most mysterious ruins of the Roman Empire. It's a monumental temple that's 2 thousand years old and sits atop three thousand-ton stone blocks. These are the largest building blocks on Earth. Why can't anyone repeat these building technologies? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to Episode 70 of our LDS Discussions series!In this episode, our panel takes a deep dive into one of the most debated questions surrounding the Book of Mormon: were ancient metal plates a known concept in Joseph Smith's world, and are they truly comparable to the golden plates he described?We examine historical sources from the 18th and 19th centuries that reference metal records –brass, copper, lead, and stone –and place them within Joseph Smith's cultural and intellectual milieu. From biblical scholarship and early American speculation about Native American origins to apologists' use of presentism, this episode carefully distinguishes between general awareness of metal inscriptions and the specific, unprecedented claims of a large golden codex containing extensive narrative text.Along the way, we explore major figures, books, and ideas circulating before and during Joseph Smith's lifetime, assess whether these sources were likely known to him, and ask a crucial question: at what point does probability break down –not because of a single anachronism, but because of the sheer scale and complexity of the plates described in the Book of Mormon?This conversation builds toward a detailed timeline of Joseph Smith's environment, highlighting how concepts expanded, evolved, and were ultimately synthesized into something entirely new.Leave a comment letting us know if you like this format with John Dehlin being “not home.”___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1.

Wallace Thornhill joins us on this night, and we discuss many facets of the Electric Universe Theory. Why it should be preferred over the current mainstream model, the proof for it, dismissing the Big Bang, Black Holes, Dark Matter, and much more. We talk of galaxies and stars, and what happened to Mars and Earth in the distant path. We talk of Velikovsky and Peratt. It is a fascinating journey. Wallace Thornhill graduated in Physics at Melbourne University in 1964 and began postgraduate studies with Prof. Victor Hopper's upper atmosphere research group. Before entering university, he had been inspired by Immanuel Velikovsky through his controversial best-selling book, Worlds in Collision. Wal experienced first-hand the indifference and sometimes hostility toward a radical challenge to mainstream science. He realized there is no career for a heretic in academia. Wal worked for 11 years with IBM Australia. The later years were spent in the prestigious IBM Systems Development Institute in Canberra, working on the first computer graphics system in Australia. He was the technical support for the computing facilities in the Research Schools at the Australian National University, which gave him excellent access to libraries and scientists there. Wal was initially heavily influenced by the then revolutionary ideas of Immanuel Velikovsky of Princeton. Velikovsky proposed that mankind had been devastated in the past by cosmological events . Wal took these ideas and with his deep knowledge of astronomy and, plasma physics began his own questioning of scientific dogma. Paramount was the place of electro magnetism, as distinct from gravity, in the formation of the universe . This slowly but surely led to his and other colleagues (such as David Talbot, Donald Scott, and Anthony Peratt) questioning such ingrained theories as the big bang, black holes and Einstein's theory of relativity. This group in particular contend that many scientific “proofs “are theory laden or mathematically concocted. An insistence on empirical data from observations and experiments gives their work true integrity.

In this landmark episode of Squatchin' Holler, we are joined by Ron Morehead—the man behind the legendary Sierra Sounds—along with researcher Darrell Denton, for a rare, in-depth conversation spanning decades of encounters and global expeditions.Ron Morehead recounts his long-term research in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, where repeated interactions and recorded vocalizations challenged everything we think we know about the wilderness. Beyond North America, Ron shares insights from his investigations into Yeti encounters in the Himalayas, Yowie reports in Australia, and relict hominoid traditions across multiple continents—revealing striking consistencies that suggest this is a worldwide phenomenon, not a regional mystery.Together with Darrell Denton, the discussion explores the intelligence, behavior, and communication behind the unexplained sounds, what expert analyses have revealed, and why these encounters continue to resist conventional scientific explanation. This episode focuses on patterns, credibility, and firsthand experience—allowing the evidence and observations to speak for themselves.If you're serious about Bigfoot research, the Sierra Sounds, or the global history of unexplained hominoid encounters, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

Did you know there's a legend about an ancient flying machine in India called the Vimana? These fascinating machines are mentioned in old texts like the Vedas and Ramayana, where they're described as floating palaces or chariots that could soar through the skies. Some even believe these flying wonders were powered by advanced technology, way ahead of their time. The idea has sparked debates, with some saying it's just mythology while others wonder if ancient civilizations knew more than we think. Scientists and historians are skeptical because there's no solid evidence of Vimana being real, but the descriptions in the texts are super detailed and intriguing. Learn more about your ad choices.

 Is it possible to live a life of humility and resilience, both in good times or bad? How do we respond when crisis hits?  January is the one-year anniversary of the catastrophic wildfires which severely impacted multiple neighborhoods and thousands of people in Los Angeles. Lisa continues the conversation with our guest Rabbi Steve Leder who talks about Darwin's theory and how the most adaptable people are the ones who survive. After pain and suffering, it's amazing what people can "normalize." Rabbi Leder talks deeply about how difficult it is when children leave to go away to college, or when someone loses a business. Yet, a year later, life somehow becomes normal again. It may feel like a betrayal to your past, but we must keep moving forward.  Rabbi Leder talks about redefining yourself and evolving. Meaning never goes out of style. He suggests that we stay in our lane and do good work. He further talks about good storytelling and myth. Myths are ways to describe truths about the human experience. He explains that about half of what we believe now are incorrect facts. History will prove this. The ancients had time to think about what they knew. We have access to so much information, but we still struggle to understand. Ancient people knew so much more about living through loss and disaster as they experienced it much more frequently than we have, whether it be infant mortality, wars, famine, disease, etc. Rabbi Leder explains how there are no "modern problems," as we can look back to these people, see their resilience, and then move forward. We can look at ancient wisdom for our modern situations. Rabbi Leder is the author of several books including "More Beautiful Than Before: How Suffering Transforms Us," "The Beauty of What Remains: How Our Greatest Fear Becomes Our Greatest Gift," and his most recent "For You When I Am Gone." He is the Senior Rabbi Emeritus of Wilshire Boulevard Temple, a prestigious synagogue in Los Angeles with three campuses and 3,000 families. Info: www.steveleder.com

Throughout history, scholars have sought ways to access the "lost knowledge" of the ancient world. In recent years, with the advent of artificial intelligence, major strides have been made toward decoding the mysteries kept within mysterious ancient texts like the famous "Voynich manuscript," which was composed centuries ago in a mysterious language that remains undeciphered. The challenges that such texts present to scholars also raise a question: would we be any more successful in decoding messages sent to Earth from space by intelligent aliens? This week on The Micah Hanks Program, we look at the efforts by scientists to unlock mysterious ancient texts, as well as the search for evidence of communication from intelligent extraterrestrials, and finally, how the intersection between archaeology and interstellar communication culminates in the debate about possible "Paleo-SETI" and the prospect that Earth may have been visited by extraterrestrial visitors in ancient times.

Can ancient temples help us understand the Garden of Eden?

Join the conversation this week as Jeff and Dave go back into the world of Henri-Irénée Marrou's History of Education in Antiquity, Part II, Chapter XI. First up is philosophical conversion: when you read Plato or Aristotle for the first time, does a lightbulb go off in your mind? What's the wattage, and is it epiphanic? Should everyone study philosophy? The hosts carefully break down the three levels of philosophical instruction: confraternities with chosen heirs that dominated official city life, freelancing, roving lecturers, and the "tub-thumpers" who heckled and harangued innocent passersby. The rivalry could be fierce between the different philosophical sects, not to mention the ongoing feud they maintained with those practical intellectuals, the rhetors. Ancient schooling in philosophy was not so different than the modern variety, with immature pranks, grungy flannels (the tribon), and more. It's a deep dive, but someone's gotta do it. So grab some brew from your Ratio Four, pull up a chair, and join the classical gourmands for a feast of intellectual history. Also, tune in to learn how you can win a free set of the Hackett edition of the Collected Works of Aristotle, as the guys somehow finagled a second giveaway!

Part one of three. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe often spoke of a dangerous but invigorating life-force that he christened "the daemonic". In his conversations with Eckermann, and in his autobiography Dichtung und Wahrheit, he describes the daemonic by direct reference to Spinoza, and his pantheist philosophy. In this first episode of our series on Goethe's Daemonic, we're going to look at Goethe's statement of the idea, then go back in time to consider: Plato's Symposium, the daemonion of Socrates, the writings of Philo of Alexandria, Justin Martyr and St. Augustine, and finally, the alleged Spinozism of the playwright Gotthold Lessing and the "pantheism controversy" that emerged over Lessing's legacy, argued by Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi and Moses Mendelssohn.Next week (part two) will involve a closer reading of Goethe's concept of the daemonic and the influence of Herder on Goethe's reception of Spinoza. Episode art: Lessing, pictured in front of some Greek daimones.

In the first installment of what will be a two-part feature, we'll talk about the historic quest to rediscover and preserve China's Tang Dynasty wooden architecture, highlighting key discoveries, early investigations, and the challenges posed by time and restoration.

(image source: https://www.deviantart.com/spinojp/art/Palaeophis-colossaeus-drinking-915269375) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Allen Brooks discuss Palaeophis, a literal sea serpent that was the biggest water snake to ever exist. Titanoboa who? That's what I thought. From the Early Paleocene to the Late Eocene, this 35-foot snake looked at the mosasaurs from the period past and was like “Heh, I can do that too, but slightly less big.” And it did! It's nice sometimes to know your place enough to not always aim for the top. A comfortable C+. It's what got me through college. Want to further support the show?

The Letter of Jude E3 — After the letter's opening appeal, Jude (or Judah) begins warning corrupt members of a Jewish messianic church community who cast off restraint and live openly immoral lives. He does so with an ancient rhetorical technique found in both the Hebrew Bible and the Dead Sea Scrolls. Jude shares three stories of rebellion in the Hebrew Bible: the spies fearful of the promised land in Numbers 13-14, the “sons of God” in Genesis 6, and the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah in Genesis 19. Then he draws comparisons to the corrupt church members, promising they'll receive the same judgment. Why does Jude write this way about the moral crisis in a church? What is he trying to communicate? In this episode, Jon and Tim explore verses 5-8, unpacking the dense biblical references and what they would have meant to Jude and his audience.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter summaries, referenced Scriptures, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSA Jewish Rhetorical Technique (0:00-18:10)Rebellion of the Spies, Sons of God, and Sodom and Gomorrah (18:10-36:41)Concluding Thoughts on the First Triad (36:41-51:54)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.BIBLEPROJECT JUDE TRANSLATIONView our full translation of the Letter of Jude.REFERENCED RESOURCESThe Dead Sea Scrolls (Pesharim)Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books.SHOW MUSIC“Fellowship” by Lofi Sunday, Cassidy Godwin“Peace With You ft.

For centuries, prophets across different lands described the same coming disaster. A German leader would rise with a voice that could move nations.Ancient Jewish scribes embedded something strange in their text—Hebrew letters that pointed to a specific year: 1946. That October, ten Nazi war criminals stood before the gallows at Nuremberg.One of them whispered his final words: "Purimfest 1946." The Nazis believed they could manufacture their own destiny through prophecy and occult manipulation.They edited ancient texts, built an empire on mysticism, and murdered anyone who predicted the wrong future. But there was one prophecy they couldn't control.The pattern was already written, waiting two thousand years to return.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjhMCFNl_YU
