To be eclipsed is to fall into shadow. Astronomical eclipses occur about four times a year, when one of the luminaries is cast into darkness. We too can be cast into darkness, thrown into life experiences that bring us down into the depths of our personal underworlds. Just as the Sun and Moon go dark, so can we. Eclipses were seen as a malefic omen to ancient people, but we know that we need the symbolic dark in order to understand the part of life that is filled with light. In the hero's journey, in myths, the experience of katabasis, of “going under” occurs when the protagonist travels to the underworld, to retrieve or discover some life-altering wisdom, enlightenment, or gift. There is fertility in darkness. Join us in this episode, which we created during “eclipse season” in the late winter of 2025, to explore stories of descent and rising, of occultation and resurrection. Our listener dream analysis focuses on someone's dream of floating up in the sky.
Astronomical spring officially begins this week! When the equinox happens. Some serious rain on the way. The all-important parade day forecast. Name this sound? St. Patrick's Day is upon us. A very March week ahead. We continue our maximum daily sunlight gains. All that and the weekly weather preview for the third week of March from March 16 - March 23, 2025 on episode #190 of Obsessed With the Weather. Support the show

This Psalm's responsive refrain is echoed 26 times. With every verse we are reminded and called to confess:" His (Yahweh's steadfast love endures forever". Perhaps the most obvious message from Ps 136 is ironically the most often discounted: the relationship between the sovereignty of God demonstrated in His awesome acts and His eternal steadfast love. How is it that the cosmic order of creation, the terrifying judgments of Egypt, or the conquering of nations demonstrate the love of God? Despite our modem sensibilities, the author expects the singer/reader to resonate with these citations as proof of Yahweh's loving character. Viewing this song from the perspective of Israel's Old Testament experience is helpful in making sense of these connections. With the song's introductory three verses we note the 'God of Gods & Lord of Lords' references providing a helpful parallel from Deuteronomy 10:17. Here Moses issues a call to worship and fear given the revelation that the owner of earth & heaven has so loved His chosen people that He has exercised His sovereign power on their behalf in delivering them from bondage and multiplying their numbers. Thematic divisions for the remainder of the song are supplied from the text itself as the Psalmist provides a summarizing refrain in chiastic conclusion. Taking the closing themes in reverse order we have our outline for Psalm 136.

Evolutionary theories that claim the Earth and universe are billions of years old are contradicted by the fact that stars are dying at a rate much faster than they are being formed. Astronomical findings showing stars dying at twice the expected rate further support the biblical truth that creation is young and, because of sin, in a state of decay.

We love to hear from you. Send us your thought, comments, suggestions, love lettersGuest: José Mariano López Urdiales, CEO and Founder of Zero 2 InfinityThe Cosmic Scoop:In this remarkably candid episode, José Mariano López Urdiales presents a compelling case for why balloon-assisted launches might be the only economically viable solution for small satellite deployment. Drawing from 15 years of experience with Zero 2 Infinity, José breaks down why conventional micro launchers face fundamental economic challenges, from capital-intensive launch sites to the physics of dense lower atmosphere. He explains how launching from 25km altitude could eliminate up to 70% of conventional launch costs while offering a refreshingly honest perspective on the challenges of innovating in Europe's space sector and why copying American rocket designs isn't the answer.Quotable Insights:1. "Developing a micro launcher traditionally needs a couple hundred million dollars. We believe with a balloon-assisted launcher, it's in the ballpark of 120 million euro - including four orbital trials."2. "Nobody explains it like this - they just say 'because we're so innovative' or whatever. I don't know. I'm going to tell you how it really works."3. "The only kind of micro launcher that can be viable is balloon-based. But nobody's actually developing it - we got to a certain point, but we're lacking funding."4 "You don't win by copying. That's not how the V2 appeared, and Starship is super interesting because it's very, very different."Cosmic Timeline (Timestamps):- [00:00:00] Introduction to Zero 2 Infinity's unique approach- [00:04:50] Technical discussion of balloon launch altitudes and capabilities- [00:14:30] Advantages of balloon-assisted launches vs traditional rockets- [00:27:34] Cost comparison of micro launchers vs balloon technology- [00:35:00] Discussion of rocket design and aerodynamics- [00:42:09] European space industry challenges and opportunities- [00:52:54] Space tourism potential and market analysis- [01:01:14] Challenges with ESA and European space sector- [01:15:35] Zero 2 Infinity's journey and pivots- [01:21:18] Fascinating insights about the Hubble Space Telescope's origins- [01:28:04] ESA funding mechanisms and politics- [01:32:00] Astronomical research possibilities with balloons- [01:37:46] Personal reflections on entrepreneurship and vision- [01:42:54] Music recommendation and final thoughts- [01:44:37] Closing thoughts on finding meaning in lifeChoice of Music for the Aspiring Space Traveller's Playlist: Public Service Broadcasting - "Go" - Links to Explore:Zero 2 Infinity: zero2infinity.spaceFollow José's insights: @JMLU77 on TwitterSpace Cafe Podcast Spotify PlaylistPublic Service Broadcasting: publicservicebroadcasting.netThis episode challenges conventional wisdom about space access and offers crucial insights for anyone interested in the future of small satellite launches.

In my last episode, I shared an essay titled "The Kali Yuga Reaches Its Grand Finale", which I wrote as the introduction to my forthcoming new book "The Coming World Nation". As I was doing research for it, I came across the work of scholar Bibhu Dev Misra, who recently published a groundbreaking study of the Hindu Yuga system called "Yuga Shift". In his book, Bibhu offers an innovative new approach to dating the timeline of the Yuga cycle and we discuss this in detail in a recent interview I conducted with him. In our chat, we focus in particular on dissecting the timeline and themes of the Kali Yuga, the "dark age" of the Yuga Cycle, which mankind has been trapped in for millennia but which Bibhu calculates is soon to be reaching its final end. For more on Bibhu's work, see his website: https://www.bibhudevmisra.com/To check out my essay on the topic, see: https://thewisdomtradition.substack.com Table of Contents00:00 - Introduction and BackgroundIntroduction to Bibhu Dev Misra and his journey from technology to ancient wisdom.05:00 - Understanding Yuga CyclesOverview of the Yuga cycles, different interpretations, and the significance of the Kali Yuga in various cultures.20:00 - Astronomical and Cultural AlignmentsAlignments of Yuga cycles with astronomical cycles and comparisons across cultural traditions.40:00 - Evidence of Lost CivilizationsDiscussion of ancient civilizations, the Younger Dryas impact, and cataclysmic resets in human history.1:00:00 - Materialism and the Kali Yuga's InfluenceHow the Kali Yuga influences materialism and spiritual decline in civilization.1:21:00 - Astrological Calculations and MidpointsInsights into astrological influences on Yuga cycles and the significance of historical midpoints.1:52:00 - Predictions for the End of the Kali YugaExamination of potential signs of the Kali Yuga's end, including comet impacts and global renewal.2:04:00 - Concluding Thoughts on Spiritual TransformationReflections on the importance of spiritual growth and personal transformation in times of global change.Send us a text

Welcome to episode 135 of George's Random Astronomical Object, or, if you prefer Roman numerals, episode CXXXV. Every episode, I run a random number generator to select random astronomical coordinates in the sky, and I then search for an astronomical object near those coordinates and talk about what makes that object so interesting to astronomers. So let's now turn on the random number generator. The coordinates for this episode are 11:40:16.9 right ascension and +17:43:41 declination. This points to the galaxy NGC 3801, which is located at a distance of roughly 176 million light years (54 Mpc) from Earth in the constellation Leo. The audio was recorded and edited by Dr. George Bendo, an ALMA contact scientist at the University of Manchester. The sound effects are from The Freesound Project at www.freesound.org.

We welcome Astronomical fall to the Northern Hemisphere this week. The wrap-up of this impactful Nor'easter. More rain chances soon. When the actual Autumnal Equinox happens. What is air temperature measuring? How much sunlight do we continue to lose?

In many ways, fall has already arrived. The fall term has started for schools. Football season is underway. And September 1st marks the beginning of the fall weather season. Astronomical fall catches up to them tomorrow. Autumn officially arrives at 7:44 a.m. Central Daylight Time – the moment of the fall equinox. The change in seasons occurs as the Sun crosses the equator from north to south. The Sun rises due east and sets due west as seen from the entire planet. And the length of day and night are about equal. That balance won’t last long. In the northern hemisphere, the days will grow shorter and the nights longer until we reach the winter solstice, in December. As that happens, the sunrise and sunset points will slide southward. As the season changes, so do the stars. At nightfall, Arcturus, the brightest star of summer nights, is dropping lower in the west. The signature star pattern of the season, the Summer Triangle, is moving to the western side of the sky. And the scorpion is getting ready to disappear in the southwest. In the meantime, the Great Square of Pegasus is in the east at nightfall, ready to climb high across the sky during the night. Constellations associated with the flying horse are moving into view as well. And so are the constellations of the Celestial Sea – water-related constellations like the fish, the sea goat, and the water boy – stellar sights for the longer nights of autumn.

It's been an exciting week in the world of PlayStation. On the software front, Team Asobi's Astro Bot has arrived on PS5, and everyone loves it, us included. We gush about it in the What We're Playing section of the show, and encourage all of you to give it a try if you haven't already. Meanwhile, over in hardware territory, the long-lingering PlayStation 5 Pro has been officially revealed for a November release. Some people are excited about the machine (the three of us will each be buying our own for launch), but many others aren't pleased at the high price, the lack of a disc drive, and even what the machine can do. Who's right? It turns out everyone is! Capitalism will sort this whole thing, one way or another... but something tells us PS5 Pro will be just fine. Other news this week includes John Garvin's most recent Days Gone-related Twitter episode, a slight increase in the cost of a new DualSense, a fresh approach for future Destiny 2 content, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Why would a band ever turn down an opportunity to have their music in Grand Theft Auto VI? Could Ubisoft 'go private' and repair its deepening financial woes? How can we justify buying a game at launch when the product is always cheaper and in better shape later on? Are everyone's cats and dogs safe and sound? Learn more about your ad choices.
