Explore groundbreaking astronomical findings including:

Patrick McKenzie (patio11) and Luke Farrell examine the structural "technical imagination" gap that prevents the US government from delivering high-fidelity digital services. They discuss why states routinely pay full price 29 times for the same buggy codebase, why failure is the default outcome, and why rooms full of government administrators cannot muster the expertise to say a two line code change should be trivial. They also discuss Luke's work on the "means testing industrial complex,” why the government redundantly pays a private vendor to do a SQL query for information the IRS already knows, and what vendors would say about their own discontents.–Full transcript available here: http://www.complexsystemspodcast.com/understanding-government-procurement-with-luke-farrell/–Presenting Sponsors: Mercury &  FramerIf you have more interesting hobbies than managing your money, Mercury Personal is built for you.

Rob Slaughter Rob Slaughter, CEO and co-founder of Defense Unicorns, discusses the modernization of the Department of War and the company’s role in facilitating technology integration with Don Witt of the Channel Daily News, a TR publication. Rob and Don comment on the modernization focusing on technology advancements and AI applications. They discussed how the nature of warfare has changed, transitioning from traditional systems to autonomous drones and other advanced technologies. Rob explained that the rapid pace of technological development means that outdated capabilities are no longer acceptable in modern conflicts. Don then asks Rob Slaughter about their platform solution UDS. Rob explains that UDS enables faster integration of modern software and AI solutions into military systems. Rob explained that UDS can integrate with both legacy and modern systems, significantly reducing the time needed for technology deployment compared to traditional methods. They discussed the challenges of deploying technology to the government and how Defense Unicorns helps streamline the process, making it easier for companies to contribute to national defense. This holds true for enterprise software as well. About: Defense Unicorns was created by people who knew firsthand how desperately the people protecting our world needed software that could move as fast as the threat. At the time it was impossible. They imagined a solution that could update in minutes, be CVE-free as a baseline, and thrive in air-gapped and edge environments. And then they built it. Defense Unicorns was officially founded, building on their deep experience delivering software in air-gapped, mission-critical environments. After helping stand up Platform One and Big Bang, the team began aligning real-world services work with product R&D—starting with Zarf, an air-gap-native delivery tool. This product-led approach, grounded in the needs of mission operators, drove early growth. For more information go to: https://defenseunicorns.com

La vita di Stephen Hawking è un viaggio straordinario tra mente e scienza. Nonostante una diagnosi che sembrava impedirgli ogni possibilità, ha saputo guardare oltre i limiti del corpo per esplorare quelli dell'universo. Un racconto che invita ad ascoltare, riflettere e lasciarsi ispirare.

Hasta hace muy poco, hablábamos con asombro de galaxias situadas a 500 o 600 millones de años después del Big Bang. Alguna excepción, a 350 millones de años luz del origen del Universo, parecía ser el límite infranqueable. Sin embargo, un equipo internacional de astrónomos acaba de confirmar el hallazgo de la galaxia más lejana jamás observada. Su nombre técnico es MoM-z14. Se trata de una galaxia que ya estaba allí, brillante y perfectamente formada, apenas 280 millones de años después del Big Bang. Es decir, en un Universo tan joven que, según las teorías vigentes, no habría tenido tiempo aún para que se formara algo así. En otras palabras, MoM-z14 es demasiado brillante, demasiado grande y químicamente demasiado compleja para estar allí. Los investigadores han teorizado que en ese universo temprano, denso y violento, se formaron Estrellas Supermasivas. Bestias cósmicas, que podrían tener entre 1.000 y 10.000 veces la masa de nuestro Sol, que vivirían muy poco tiempo, quemando su combustible a una velocidad frenética, y que por tanto serían capaces de "cocinar" cantidades ingentes de nitrógeno en un tiempo récord. Lo curioso es que en nuestra propia Vía Láctea, tenemos los cúmulos globulares, que son grupos de estrellas muy antiguas. Algunas de esas estrellas tienen, curiosamente, niveles de nitrógeno muy altos que nunca hemos sabido explicar bien. El estudio sugiere que ahora estamos viendo el mismo proceso, pero en directo.

Goose vs. Geese | The Battle of the Waterfowl! In this episode of Derringer Discoveries, we are officially “winging it” as we dive into the avian-obsessed world of rock and roll. Join Paul, Laura, Alton, and our newly minted co-host, Rob Derringer, as we settle a debate over two of the most talked-about bands in the current scene: Connecticut's jam-band kings, Goose, and Brooklyn's post-punk provocateurs, Geese. In This Episode, We Discuss: The "Apex Predators" of Bird Bands: We look at the industry's obsession with our feathered friends, from The Eagles and The Black Crowes to The Yardbirds, The Byrds, and Wings. We break down two very different modern rock stories: Geese, the Brooklyn post‑punk critical darlings who exploded after an SNL appearance and now boast millions of monthly listeners; and Goose, the Connecticut‑born jam‑band phenomenon whose marathon live shows and festival breakout turned them into a touring powerhouse. Geese – The Post-Punk Anarchists: How a group of friends from Stuyvesant High School went from a basement studio called “The Nest” to a bidding war over their demos. The fallout from their polarizing Saturday Night Live performance that split the internet between "rock saviors" and "derivative impostors". Their meteoric rise to over 2 million monthly listeners and critical acclaim for albums like 3D Country and Getting Killed. Goose – The Indie-Groove Torchbearers: The band's "Big Bang" moment at the 2019 Peach Music Festival that transformed them into a national sensation overnight. Why they are considered the new leaders of the jam-band scene, blending the spirit of the Grateful Dead and Phish with a Vampire Weekend sensibility. Their impressive resume of sold-out shows at Madison Square Garden and Red Rocks.  The Final Vote The team steps off the fence to choose their winner in the Battle of the Waterfowl. Who takes the crown: the singular Goose or the plural Geese? Connect with Derringer Discoveries We want to hear from you! Is "jam band" a badge of honor or a warning label?

AFFEN&Co 400, La Collégiale de l’AFFEN avec François GEUZE, expert IA et RH L'intelligence artificielle ne se résume pas à une simple mode technologique ; elle représente une transformation profonde, souvent qualifiée de « Big Bang » de la formation. François Gueuze, expert du domaine depuis 1988, nous rappelle que l'IA est fondamentalement statistique et non « intelligente » au sens humain. Sa valeur réelle dépend d’un principe simple : la qualité des données d'entrée (« garbage in, garbage out »). 1. Changer de paradigme : faire « autrement » Historiquement, l'informatique visait à « faire plus avec moins » dans une logique d'industrialisation. Avec l'IA, l’enjeu est de faire « autrement ». Il ne s’agit plus seulement de réduire les coûts, mais d’ouvrir des portes vers l’humain augmenté. Grâce à l’analyse de corrélations complexes (parfois plus de 20 variables), l’IA permet d’identifier des schémas invisibles à l’œil nu, que ce soit pour comprendre l’absentéisme ou optimiser les parcours de carrière. 2. Une révolution pour les métiers RH et de la formation En ressources humaines, nous passons d’une statistique descriptive à une analyse prescriptive. L’IA peut désormais calculer le retour sur investissement d’une formation ou identifier des compétences insoupçonnées, comme ces anciens sous-mariniers devenus d'excellents magasiniers grâce à leur sens de l’organisation en espace restreint. Pour les formateurs et pédagogues, le rôle évolue : • De la production au raffinage : L’enjeu est désormais de superviser et de corriger les productions des machines. • De l’enseignement à l’esprit critique : Face à des outils comme Perplexity ou NotebookLM, l’apprenant doit mobiliser son intelligence pour valider et sourcer l’information. 3. Replacer l’humain et le collectif au centre Le véritable danger n’est pas l’outil, mais son usage dénué de pensée critique. Si l'IA automatise les tâches à faible valeur ajoutée, c'est pour nous permettre de regagner du temps sur l'essentiel : la relation humaine et la reconstruction des collectifs de travail. L’enseignement majeur ? Ne craignez pas d’être challengés par l’IA. Utilisez-la pour enrichir votre travail, tout en cultivant la curiosité et le doute constructif. Comme le souligne François Gueuze, l’IA doit servir à créer du lien et du sens, plutôt que de simplement accélérer la cadence.

Can faith and science coexist? Absolutely. In John 1:1-5, we discover that God created all things through His Word—the Logos—meaning divine reason. The same God who spoke creation into being gave us minds capable of understanding it.When scientists study the universe, they're actually uncovering God's handiwork. The Big Bang? That's creation. Fine-tuned laws of physics? Evidence of a Designer. Order in nature? God's reason on display. Our ability to investigate and discover doesn't contradict faith—it honors the Creator who made both the universe and our capacity to understand it.

In today's episode of Truth Wanted, Kelley Laughlin and Aaron Jensen explore the limits of free will, the necessity of universal logic, and the origins of our universe! From the "hellscapes" of Oregon to the mysteries of the Big Bang, the hosts challenge listeners to move beyond religious labels and ground their worldview in evidence.Jamie in TX questions the free will defense. If heaven has free will without evil, why is the earthly trial needed? Hosts distinguish between choice and will, citing biology. Does the concept of heavenly robots invalidate the trial?Goatus in OH asks if universal truths like logic exist without God. Hosts explore logical axioms and scientific pragmatism. They argue these are tools for navigating reality rather than divine mandates. Does a lack of grounding make logic arbitrary?Stephen in NY redefines God as "determinism." Hosts identify this as a relabeling exercise with no explanatory power. They challenge the link between divine intent and material physics. Why use the God label for natural laws we already understand?John in Canada asks about the Big Bang and universe origins. They discuss singularities, time travel, and dark matter. The hosts stress the value of saying "I don't know" when evidence is absent. Will we ever observe the beginning of time?Thank you for joining us today! We will see you next week and don't forget to add your answer to this week's We Want The Truth question: what's the most ridiculous religious claim that you've believed?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/truth-wanted--3195473/support.

By Jon Davies - Scientists have various theories about the universe and it's origin. The "Big Bang" has been put forth as one possibility. But what is God's role in the physical universe? The Bible gives us much information, such that we should not be left confused.

El divulgador científico Manuel Toharia analiza una cuestión que está despertando un notable interés: la posibilidad de que los nuevos medicamentos contra la obesidad, como la semaglutida, conocida comercialmente como Ozempic, puedan también influir en otras adicciones. Aunque los medios llevan meses mencionándolo, los datos aún son preliminares y la comunidad científica pide cautela. Aun así, la hipótesis abre un campo de investigación prometedor sobre cómo estos fármacos podrían modular ciertos comportamientos compulsivos.Toharia comenta además dos descubrimientos recientes que amplían nuestra comprensión del mundo: por un lado, un bonobo que ha demostrado ser capaz de imaginar una acción sin realizarla, lo que sugiere que la imaginación no es un rasgo exclusivamente humano. Por otro, la confirmación, gracias al telescopio espacial más potente disponible, de una galaxia formada muy poco después del Big Bang, un hallazgo que nos acerca un poco más a los orígenes del universo.Escuchar audio

O Fundo Regional de Arte Contemporânea de Marselha (Frac Sud), no sul da França, acolhe até 15 de novembro a exposição "Champ étoilé" (Campo estrelado), da dupla de artistas gaúchos Angela Detanico e Rafael Lain. A mostra é um mergulho na imensidão do universo, contemplando linguagem e instigando o público a refletir sobre os mistérios do cosmos.  Daniella Franco, enviada especial da RFI a Marselha Composta por seis obras guiadas pela luz como elemento central, “Champ étoilé” articula peças que se entrelaçam para criar pontes entre beleza, poesia e ciência. O conjunto oferece um recorte emblemático da pesquisa de Detanico e Lain, marcada pela linguística e pela exploração da relação entre tempo e espaço. "É uma exposição que nos fala das nossas origens, dos seres vivos, desde o Big Bang. Mais de 13 bilhões de anos depois, essa luz que criou a vida na Terra, continua existindo. Então, essa reflexão nos convida a nos descentralizar e a compreender que, nesta cadeia ambiental e do universo, nós somos apenas um elo", diz a curadora da mostra e diretora do Frac Sud, Muriel Enjalran.  Para ela, as obras de Angela e Rafael vão além da poesia do cosmos, abordando também o lugar dos seres humanos no mundo, algo que não é novo para os brasileiros. "O Brasil, com seus povos indígenas, reflete há muito tempo sobre essa intercorrelação dos astros, da natureza e da humanidade", ressalta.  Angela Detanico explica que a ideia era colocar em diálogo diferentes momentos da história da luz e do universo. "As obras fazem um pouco esse passeio pelo tempo e pelo espaço, falando um pouquinho também de linguagem, que é um dos nossos temas de predileção. Então nós temos o sol, a lua, estrelas, galáxias muito distantes. A nossa ideia era realmente criar essas diferentes temporalidades", diz.   "Para nós é importante a compreensão de que toda a matéria do universo estava, no passado, unida em um mesmo ponto. Então, tudo faz parte de um todo. Mesmo que a gente tenha a experiência e a consciência da individualidade, no fundo, nós somos todos parte de um sistema que se equilibra e que é interdependente", completa Rafael.  Telescópios e campos de flores Entre as obras exibidas, está a monumental instalação "Floraison de la Lumière" (Florescimento da Luz), concebida no âmbito do Prêmio Marcel Duchamp 2024, a maior recompensa de artes plásticas e visuais da França, para o qual Angela e Rafael foram nomeados. A peça, exposta no ano passado no Centro Pompidou, em Paris, associa imagens de telescópios a fotografias de campos de flores feitas pelos artistas.  Outro destaque da exposição é a instalação "Les Mers de lune" (Os Mares da Lua), projeções em um disco de pedras brancas, que reproduzem uma espécie de jardim zen. A instalação é acompanhada de uma etérea trilha sonora composta para uma peça de dança apresentada por Angela e Rafael em Marselha em 2013. Outras peças foram concebidas especialmente para a exposição "Champ étoilé" , como a luminosa tela "Souleu". A obra é uma representação do sol feita na língua provençal de Marselha. Já "Analema"é um trabalho em texto que evoca os 365 dias do ano.  Angela e Rafael são naturais de Caxias do Sul (RS) e viveram mais de vinte anos na França, antes da recente decisão de retornar ao Brasil. Para eles, todo o trabalho desenvolvido se conecta com o país. "Tudo vem de lá e acaba lá, com essa natureza tão presente no Brasil, além desta conexão com os elementos que a gente carrega", observa Angela. 

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 22In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into the formation of the universe's most enigmatic objects, explore the origins of Saturn's iconic rings, and get updates on NASA's Artemis 2 mission.Black Holes and Exotic Cosmic StructuresA groundbreaking study suggests that some of the universe's most exotic entities, including black holes and cannibal stars, may have formed just seconds after the Big Bang. Researchers from the International School of Advanced Studies propose that subatomic particles condensed into halos of matter, which then collapsed to create these fascinating cosmic structures. Their findings, published in Physical Review D, indicate that even in the earliest moments of the universe, complex physical phenomena were already taking shape, paving the way for our understanding of cosmic evolution.The Formation of Saturn's RingsNew research proposes that Saturn's largest moon, Titan, may have formed from the collision of two older moons, potentially linking this event to the creation of Saturn's spectacular ring system. The study, reported in the Planetary Science Journal, utilizes computer simulations to explore the dynamics of Saturn's moons and their interactions, suggesting that Titan's merger could explain its unique orbit and the age of the rings, estimated to be around 100 million years.NASA's Artemis 2 Mission UpdateFollowing the recent scrubbing of the Artemis 2 launch due to hydrogen leaks, NASA has made significant repairs and is preparing for another attempt. Engineers have replaced seals in the mobile launcher's umbilical area and are conducting further testing to ensure the rocket's readiness. With multiple launch windows available in March, the Artemis 2 mission aims to test key systems aboard the Orion spacecraft, setting the stage for future lunar exploration and the eventual return of humans to the Moon.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesPhysical Review D, Planetary Science JournalBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.

MIT physicist David Kaiser is one of those rare scientists who can make mind-bending physics feel like a great conversation over coffee — funny, generous, and genuinely thrilled by what we still don't know. And what he's working on is wild. What the if the universe is packed with invisible black holes smaller than an atom? Dave thinks the mysterious "missing stuff" that holds galaxies together might not be some exotic undiscovered particle — it could be tiny black holes that formed a split second after the Big Bang. If he's right, a handful of them could be cruising through our solar system right now, and we might be able to catch one in the act just by watching Mars wobble. We also dig into whether a rogue black hole might have flattened a Siberian forest in 1908, and rest assured, the residents of Brooklyn have nothing to worry about.

Are you ready for the 2026 Big Bang?

Copernicus, Darwin, and Freud once convinced the world that science made God obsolete. Olivier Bonnassies argues that modern physics—from the Big Bang to DNA complexity—has triggered a "Great Reversal," turning science into the ultimate ally of theism and rendering materialism an irrational belief.

La question paraît anodine, presque ludique, pourtant, elle a occupé certains des plus grands mathématiciens modernes. Et la réponse est aujourd'hui claire, chiffrée, et contre-intuitive.Tout commence avec le mélange à l'américaine, appelé riffle shuffle : on coupe le paquet en deux, puis on entrelace les cartes. C'est le geste le plus courant chez les joueurs de poker et les croupiers. Mais est-il efficace ? Dans les années 1990, le mathématicien et ancien magicien Persi Diaconis, alors à Stanford, décide de répondre scientifiquement à la question.Avec ses collègues, il modélise mathématiquement le mélange de cartes comme un processus aléatoire et compare l'ordre du paquet après chaque mélange à un ordre parfaitement aléatoire. Leur verdict, publié en 1992, est sans appel : il faut exactement 7 mélanges riffle pour qu'un jeu de 52 cartes soit véritablement aléatoire.Avant 7 mélanges, le jeu n'est pas vraiment mélangé. Des structures subsistent, des cartes restent statistiquement proches de leur position d'origine. Après 7 mélanges, en revanche, on observe un phénomène brutal appelé transition de coupure (cutoff phenomenon) : le paquet passe soudainement d'un état “prévisible” à un état “indiscernable du hasard total”. Un 6ᵉ mélange est insuffisant ; le 7ᵉ fait basculer le système.Ce résultat est frappant quand on le compare au nombre total de configurations possibles d'un jeu de cartes : 52!, soit environ80 658 175 170 943 878 571 660 636 856 403 766 975…Un nombre si gigantesque que, si chaque personne sur Terre mélangeait un paquet chaque seconde depuis le Big Bang, il est extrêmement probable qu'aucun ordre n'ait jamais été répété. Et pourtant, seulement 7 mélanges bien faits suffisent pour atteindre cet océan de possibilités.Cette découverte a des implications bien au-delà des cartes. Les mêmes mathématiques servent à analyser :la sécurité des algorithmes cryptographiques,les méthodes de tirage au sort,le brassage des données en informatique,ou encore le mélange des particules en physique statistique.Conclusion surprenante : mélanger trop peu n'est pas du hasard, mais trop mélanger ne sert à rien. Les mathématiciens ont tranché : pour un jeu standard, 7 mélanges suffisent. Ni plus, ni moins. Une rare situation où le chaos obéit à une règle précise. Hébergé par Acast.

A recent study published in Physical Review Letters suggests that the mysterious high-energy neutrino detected in 2023 may have originated from a quasi-extremal primordial black hole. This type of black hole, theorized to exist since the Big Bang, could explain the otherwise unexplainable energy levels of the neutrino and potentially unlock the secrets of dark matter and the fundamental nature of the universe.Mars' Dust Storms and Water LossNew research published in Communications Earth and Environment reveals that localized dust storms on Mars may play a significant role in the planet's water loss. While Mars is currently a dry desert, evidence from its surface indicates a wetter past. The study shows that intense dust storms can transport water vapor to higher altitudes, facilitating its escape into space, thus contributing to the long-standing mystery of Martian water depletion.Plasma Daniel for Hypersonic TestingA groundbreaking facility known as the plasma tunnel is now being used by scientists and engineers to simulate the extreme conditions spacecraft face during atmospheric reentry. The plasma tunnel generates high-speed plasma flows that mimic the intense heat and pressure experienced during reentry, providing critical data for developing safer and more efficient spacecraft. This innovative technology could revolutionize our understanding of hypersonic flight and enhance mission safety for future space exploration.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesPhysical Review Letters, Communications Earth and EnvironmentBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-with-stuart-gary--2458531/support.(00:00:00) Astronomers investigate a potential black hole explosion(00:07:15) New study reveals how dust storms on Mars contribute to water loss(00:15:30) The plasma tunnel: recreating atmospheric reentry conditions(00:22:45) Science report: Genetic factors influencing life expectancy(00:30:00) Bigfoot sightings and cultural phenomena in America

C dans l'air du 12 février 2026 - Otan: le big bang a commencé!À partir de ce vendredi, et jusqu'à dimanche, se déroulera la Conférence de Munich sur la sécurité. L'édition 2025 avait été marquée par le discours du vice-président des États-Unis, J. D. Vance, contre les démocraties libérales européennes. Un coup de tonnerre diplomatique qui préfigurait la stratégie de sécurité américaine, publiée en décembre 2025. L'Europe y est qualifiée de continent en "déclin", marqué par un risque "d'effacement civilisationnel". Une rupture dans la relation transatlantique.Un an plus tard, cette nouvelle édition va donc être observée avec attention, d'autant plus qu'il y sera question des suites de la guerre en Ukraine et de la dégradation des relations transatlantiques.Les ministres de la Défense de l'OTAN se réunissent ce jeudi à Bruxelles. Au cœur des discussions : comment renforcer la sécurité en Europe. Une stratégie qui se concentre sur le Groenland. L'alliance transatlantique vient de lancer sa mission d'« Arctic Sentry » (« Sentinelle arctique »), une activité de surveillance renforcée de la zone pour prendre en compte les inquiétudes formulées par le président américain face à la Chine et à la Russie, mais également pour répondre aux appétits américains sur l'île arctique. Depuis son retour à la Maison-Blanche, Donald Trump a dit vouloir annexer le Groenland, provoquant l'une des crises les plus graves de l'histoire de l'Alliance atlantique.« Si quelqu'un pense ici que l'Europe peut se défendre sans les États-Unis, continuez de rêver » a lancé de son côté le secrétaire général de l'Otan et ex-premier ministre des Pays-Bas Mark Rutte aux eurodéputés, lors d'une intervention lundi au Parlement à Bruxelles. « Nous avons besoin les uns des autres », a-t-il encore ajouté. Une sortie qui a fait réagir plusieurs dirigeants européens dont le ministre des Affaires étrangères Jean-Noël Barrot. « Non, cher Mark Rutte. Les Européens peuvent et doivent prendre en charge leur sécurité », a écrit le ministre des Affaires étrangères français sur X. La France, pays européen le plus favorable à une « autonomie stratégique » en Europe, est engagée depuis lundi dans un exercice militaire de grande ampleur, le plus important depuis la Guerre froide : Orion 26. Pendant trois mois, plus de 12 000 militaires français, 25 navires, 140 avions et 1 200 drones vont être mobilisés dans cette simulation de conflit de haute intensité. À leurs côtés : des militaires de 24 autres pays, essentiellement européens, mais aussi américains, canadiens ou émiriens. Une démonstration de force qui vise à s'entrainer à conduire des opérations, tester des innovations, avec également un objectif de dissuasion. Parallèlement, face à une accélération de la menace, la France a décidé de mettre en place un service national d'une durée totale de 10 mois, rémunéré, ouvert aux jeunes de 18 à 25 ans, sur la base du volontariat. Les candidatures sont ouvertes depuis mi janvier et les candidats sont déjà nombreux : l'armée de l'air a 600 places à pourvoir pour cette année, et en une matinée, elle a reçu 800 candidatures.Nos experts :- Général François CHAUVANCY - Rédacteur en chef de la revue Défense de l'Union-IHEDN, l'Institut des hautes études de défense nationale, ancien officier ayant servi à l'OTAN- Pierre HAROCHE - Maître de conférences en politique européenne et internationale à l'université Catholique de Lille, auteur de, Dans la forge du monde, publié chez fayard- Isabelle LASSERRE - Correspondante diplomatique au Figaro, autrice de Les fantômes de Munich, publié aux éditions de l'Observatoire- Alain PIROT - Journaliste, réalisateur, spécialiste des questions de défense

Génesis 1:1“En el principio creó Dios los cielos y la tierra".Un joven estudiante una vez le preguntó a Martín Lutero qué estaba haciendo Dios antes de instituir la creación. Se dice que Lutero respondió al joven, “Estaba haciendo interruptores para utilizar en niños que hacen preguntas necias”. Hoy por hoy algunos físicos evolucionistas están preguntando como era el universo antes del Big Bang.Los teóricos del Big Ban siempre han dicho que no había nada antes del Big Ban. Sin embargo, todos los físicos evolucionistas saben que la teoría del Big Bang tiene algunos grandes problemas. Por ejemplo, en los primeros momentos del Big Bang, dice la teoría que el universo habría tenido una densidad y temperatura infinita. Otro problema es que ninguna física conocida se aplica a estos primeros momentos del universo. Un físico adjunto al Laboratorio Europeo para la Física de Partículas ha propuesto que el universo sí existió mucho antes del Big Bang. Él teoriza que era lo suficientemente grande como para no ser infinito en temperatura y densidad y alrededor de un dieciseisavo de pulgada de ancho. Además teoriza que el universo existió durante mucho tiempo en esta condición. Él describe al universo pre-big-bang como estar en el estado más simple imaginable, una condición que él llama “el estado de trivialidad”. Los físicos tradicionalistas señalan, sin embargo, que esta nueva teoría también está llena de asunciones imposibles de probar.La lección real aquí es que ni la teoría del Big Bang ni ninguna otra teoría que podamos concebir puede dar cuenta del universo. Sólo la mano de Dios puede explicar el universo que vemos.Oración: Te alabo, Señor ya que Tu Palabra siempre es confiable. Amén.Ref: New Scientist, "Before the Big Bang."

Patrick answers questions from listeners about artificial intelligence’s real risks and moral boundaries but also addresses how misinformation sneaks into everyday life through social media. He reacts strongly to political controversies, confronting racism and why careless public social media posts can’t be shrugged off. Tom - Your point about washers and dryers is irrelevant today. What about George Soros and other people who could misuse AI as propaganda? There is no AI watchdog now. (00:40) Tom (email) – Why are you being silent on things you should be speaking out about? (06:18) Daria - The teacher at my Bible class is encouraging praying over people and laying hands on others. (10:11) Debbie - The NASA space center launched the James-Webb telescope which went back to Big Bang. How will these things affect Grok and ChatGPT? (23:05) Maureen – There’s a lot more to the video that President Trump sent out. It is part of a whole clip that was attached to something related to the Lion King. (28:21) George - Praying over someone seems intuitive for our human bodies. Seems like we are making a mountain out of a molehill. (32:53) Denise - Have you heard about prayers that Christ himself wrote? (36:19) Rebeca - The Bible says you shouldn’t make images about heaven. Why do Catholics make images of saints and pray to them? (42:55) Laura – It took me 20 years of a rough marriage to figure out why God wasn’t answering my prayers (49:24)

Nuestra comprensión del universo depende de la precisión con que podamos medirlo. Desde los relojes de sol hasta los atómicos, la evolución de la tecnología no solo busca puntualidad, sino descifrar por qué el tiempo parece fluir constantemente del pasado al futuro y que ocurre cuando intentamos medirlo a intervalos cuánticos, diminutos, o si pudiéramos hacerlo en escenarios extremos como un agujero negro o el Big Bang. Hemos entrevistado a Miguel Ángel Martín Delgado, catedrático de Física Teórica en la universidad Complutense y autor del libro “¿Qué es el tiempo y como se mide?” (Catarata).Con Carlos Briones hemos analizado un estudio que apoya la hipótesis del mundo RNA, que propone que la vida en la Tierra primitiva comenzó con estas moléculas y no con ADN. En concreto, la investigación muestra la forma en la que pudo generarse el ARN de transferencia, esencial para la síntesis de proteínas. José Luís Trejo nos ha contado una interesante investigación sobre el sistema de orientación de los pájaros carboneros que demuestra que el cerebro puede "descargar" actualizaciones físicas según las necesidades del entorno. Amanda López nos ha informado de un trabajo coliderado por el Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía que revela el papel de las tormentas de polvo en la desaparición del agua en Marte. Con testimonios de Adrián Brines, del IAA (CSIC). Hemos informado de la campaña de recaudación de fondos iniciada por la Fundación CRIS Contra el Cáncer para financiar al Grupo de Mariano Barbacid en el CNIO después de los excelentes resultados obtenidos en ratones de un tratamiento contra el cáncer de páncreas; del aplazamiento a marzo de la misión Artemis II de la NASA por fugas de combustible y problemas de comunicación; y de la recuperación parcial de la visión de un paciente con ceguera total a partir de un ensayo clínico de microestimulación eléctrica cerebral desarrollado por investigadores de la Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche y del CIBER en Bioingenería, Biomateriales y Nanomedicina del Instituto de Salud Carlos III (ISCIII).Escuchar audio

Mystery-Clad Being The Primal Rhythm of Being and the Heart of All Reality by Doug Scott, LCSW I. The Nature of Mystery We have just heard [previous presenter] speak beautifully about the theme of mystery. I want to build on that foundation with a particular question: What is the nature of the mystery that we are exploring? Mystery is not that which cannot be known. Mystery is that which can never be exhausted in all the ways of knowing. It is infinitely knowable—which means we can spend eternity exploring it and never arrive at complete comprehension. Not because it withholds itself from us, but because it is inexhaustible in its richness. This is a crucial distinction. Mystery is not ignorance. It is not a wall we cannot penetrate. Mystery is an ocean we can swim in forever, each stroke revealing new depths, new currents, new wonders. The fullness of mystery—what we might call gnosis—is not a destination we arrive at but a horizon that recedes as we approach, always inviting us further. Ra describes this with precise language when speaking of the fundamental rhythms of intelligent infinity: "The basic rhythms of intelligent infinity are totally without distortion of any kind. The rhythms are clothed in mystery, for they are being itself." (27.7) Clothed in mystery. Not hidden by mystery. Clothed in it—the way a body is clothed, the way we wear our appearance. Mystery is not what conceals being from us. Mystery is being, wearing its own inexhaustibility. So tonight I want to ask: If being itself is clothed in mystery, can we nonetheless discern something of its shape? Its flow? Its fundamental rhythm? Can we, while honoring the inexhaustibility, trace patterns that appear consistently across Ra's teachings—patterns that might illuminate something primal about the nature of reality itself? II. Being as Verb: Does It Have a Shape? Notice that Ra says the rhythms are being itself. Not that being has rhythms. Not that being does rhythms. The rhythms are being. This is being as verb, not as noun. Not a thing that exists, but existence itself as dynamic, self-processing oscillation. What does Ra tell us about the shape of this rhythm? In Session 27.6, we find a remarkable description: "Intelligent infinity has a rhythm, or flow, as of a giant heart beginning with the Central Sun... the presence of the flow inevitable as a tide of beingness without polarity, without finity; the vast and silent all beating outward, outward, focusing outward and inward until the focuses are complete. The intelligence or consciousness of foci have reached a state where their, shall we say, spiritual nature or mass calls them inward, inward, inward until all is coalesced. This is the rhythm of reality." A giant heart. Beating outward, outward... then inward, inward, inward until all is coalesced. This is the shape of being itself: a circulation. Not linear progression, not random chaos, but rhythmic circulation—emanation and return, expansion and coalescence, systole and diastole. III. The Primal Desire: Joy Seeking to Know Itself But why? Why does being beat outward and then inward? What drives the circulation? Ra gives us the answer in the most fundamental teaching of all: "The Creator will know Itself" (27.8). This is the First Distortion, the primal movement from undifferentiated unity toward manifestation. Not "wants to know" as if lacking something—but will, an active, ongoing, generative drive. Here is the crucial insight: This desire is not experienced as lack. It is experienced as Joy. The Creator's desire to know Itself is not a hunger born of deficiency but a fullness seeking to express and discover itself through infinite perspectives. Joy is the fundamental affective quality of being itself. And this Joy can only be fulfilled through experience. The Creator cannot know Itself through static contemplation. Self-knowing requires circulation—going forth into differentiated expression and returning enriched by what the journey has gathered. This means experience is circulation. The going forth and the returning are not separate from experience—they are experience itself in its most fundamental form. IV. The Heart as Locus of Circulation If experience is circulation, and circulation has a pattern—outward, inward, coalescence—then we can ask: Is there a center to this circulation? Is there a locus where the three movements meet? Ra speaks directly to this in Session 82.7: "There is a center to infinity. From this center all spreads. Therefore, there are centers to the creation, to the galaxies, to star systems, to planetary systems, and to consciousness. In each case you may see growth from the center outward." A center from which all spreads. This is the ontological definition of a heart—not merely an organ that pumps blood, not merely a chakra that processes emotion, but the locus of circulation itself. Wherever being localizes—whether as universe, galaxy, star, planet, or person—there exists a heart: a center where the three forces of circulation operate. The Three Forces Outward Flow (Emanation): From the heart, energy emanates. The Original Thought—the Creator's desire to know Itself—pulses forth from this center into manifestation, seeking, exploring, differentiating. Ra speaks of the vast and silent all "beating outward, outward." Inward Flow (Return): To the heart, experience returns. The spiritual nature or mass of the foci "calls them inward, inward, inward." This is what Ra elsewhere calls "spiritual gravity"—the attractive force drawing consciousness back toward center, back toward Source. Coalescence (Integration): Within the heart, what went forth and what returns are integrated. Ra uses several terms for this: coalesced (27.6), distilled (18.5—"distilling from them the love/light within them"), and in other passages, the image of atoms finding "precise distances from each other" to "produce a lattice structure which we call crystalline" (29.23). Coalescence is not mere combination. It is integration that transforms. What went forth as seed returns as harvest. What emanated as question returns as lived answer. The heart distills, processes, and prepares the next arising. V. The Modes of Joy: Yearning, Longing, Rejoicing Now we can go deeper. The three movements—outward, inward, coalescence—are kinetic. They are movements. But what generates them? What is the affective quality that drives the circulation? I want to suggest that the three movements are responses to three prior conditions—three ontological yearnings that are themselves modes of Joy. These yearnings do not cause the movements mechanically; they are the movements in their affective dimension. Yearning (to go forth): At the primal level, yearning is not lack. It is eager desire, anticipation, the joy in becoming. The Old English giernan means "to strive, be eager, desire"—and shares roots with the Greek chaírein, "to rejoice." Yearning is rejoicing—no lack, only eager delight in the adventure about to unfold. This generates the outward flow. Longing (to return): Once consciousness has gone forth and differentiated, a new quality of desire emerges. Longing is desire stretched across the distance that experience has created. The Old English langian means literally "to grow long, to lengthen"—stretching toward what is distant. This is the memory of home pulling homeward, joy stretched toward reunion. This generates the inward flow. Rejoicing (in union): When outward and inward meet in the heart, there is consummation. Rejoicing, from the Latin gaudēre, originally meant "to possess, to enjoy possession of, to have fruition of." It is the joy of completion, of harvest gathered, of distillation accomplished. This generates coalescence and seeds the new arising. And throughout—enjoying. Being in joy. The Old French enjoir means literally "to be placed within joy, to dwell in joy." This is the medium through which the entire circulation occurs. There is no moment outside of joy, because joy is being itself in its affective dimension. VI. The Two Energies Within Us This cosmic pattern is not distant from us. Ra tells us it operates within our own energy system. In Session 49.5-6, Ra describes two types of energy operating within the mind/body/spirit complex: "The most important concept to grasp about the energy field is that the lower, or negative pole, will draw the universal energy into itself from the cosmos. Therefrom it will move upward to be met and reacted to by the positive spiraling energy moving downward from within." "Meanwhile the Creator lies within. In the north pole the crown is already upon the head and the entity is potentially a god." Two flows: one rising from below, drawing universal energy from the cosmos; one descending from within, where the Creator already dwells. The place where they meet—this is what Ra calls kundalini, "the meeting place of cosmic and inner vibratory understanding." This meeting point is our heart, in its deepest sense. The cosmic rhythm that beats through all creation beats through you. The yearning that sends energy outward, the longing that draws it back, the rejoicing where they meet—these are not metaphors. They are the actual dynamics of your being. VII. The Pattern Appears Everywhere This pattern of three forces—outward flow, inward flow, coalescence—appears throughout nature and science. Not because science "proves" metaphysics, but because the same pattern that constitutes being manifests at every scale. Physics: White holes (cosmic emanation) and black holes (cosmic return). The Big Bang as universal outward flow, gravitational collapse as universal inward flow. The strange attractor in chaos theory—which we will watch in a moment—reveals how apparent chaos organizes around a hidden center. Chemistry: Dissipative structures maintain organization through constant circulation of energy—taking in, transforming, releasing. Living systems are precisely such structures. Biology: The heartbeat itself. Systole (contraction, emanation) and diastole (relaxation, reception). Breath: inhalation drawing the world in, exhalation releasing transformed air. The cell taking nutrients in, processing, releasing waste. Psychology: Attachment theory describes the child moving out into the world (secure base), returning to the caregiver (safe haven), and being transformed by the cycle. We spend our lives circulating between independence and intimacy. Neuroscience: The brain itself can be understood as a torus on its side—two hemispheres longing for each other across the corpus callosum, which functions as both veil and bridge. The left hemisphere specializes in focused analysis; the right in holistic context. Neither is complete without the other. The longing between them is the mechanism of integrated consciousness. VIII. Strange Attractor Contemplation   Watch the point move through space. It never repeats. Never traces the same path twice. And yet—it does not wander randomly. Something draws it. Something organizes its apparent chaos.   This is called a strange attractor. "Attractor" because the system is drawn toward it. "Strange" because it has a shape that can never be fully occupied—the trajectory approaches infinitely close but never lands. The point spirals around one wing... then crosses to spiral around the other... then crosses back. Two centers. One circulation. The pattern never settles, never completes, never exhausts itself.   Watch how each spiral tightens toward center... then releases... and is drawn across to begin again. This is what longing looks like when mapped in phase space. The memory of center draws the wandering point. Not forcing—luring. The attractor does not compel. It invites. The point is free at every moment—and at every moment, it is being called.   You are watching the shape of yearning made visible. Going forth... being drawn back... crossing over... spiraling in... releasing out... and being drawn again. The outward is contained by the inward. The inward is activated by the outward. Neither exists without the other. This is circulation. This is life.   Now notice: there is no visible center. You cannot see the attractor itself. You see only the response to it—the endless spiral dance of something being drawn, being lured, being loved into pattern. The attractor is known only by its effects. It is mystery-clad. Present everywhere in the system. Visible nowhere except in what it organizes.   Ra said the rhythms of intelligent infinity are "clothed in mystery, for they are being itself." This is what it looks like when being wears its mystery: infinite complexity, perfect order, inexhaustible novelty—all dancing around a center that can never be possessed, only approached.   Feel how this is also your life. Going forth into experience... being drawn back toward something you cannot name but cannot forget... crossing between worlds—outer and inner, manifest and hidden—spiraling closer, then releasing, then spiraling again. You have never been lost. The attractor has always been calling. Every apparently random movement was already part of the pattern—the inexhaustible pattern that clothes the Center in visible mystery.   The heart beats. Outward, outward... inward, inward... until all is coalesced. This is the rhythm of reality. --- IX. Consolation: We Are Never Alone Before we turn to practice, I want to offer something pastoral. If the cosmic rhythm is yearning-longing-rejoicing, and if this same rhythm operates in you... then your own yearning and longing are not separate from God's. Your ache to return, your restlessness for something more, your homesickness for a home you cannot quite remember—this is God's own longing operating within and through you. You are inside divine longing even as it is inside you. Whitehead called God "the fellow sufferer who understands." But it goes deeper than that. God is not watching our longing from outside. God is longing through us, with us, as us. The yearning you feel is not evidence of God's absence but of God's presence within that very yearning. This means: You are never alone. The sense of alienation—the veil's deepest effect—produces not separation itself, but the felt conviction that separation is absolute. Softening that conviction is the heart of spiritual practice. Not replacing it with certainty of connection—that would be another kind of grasping—but allowing the possibility that we are not alone, that we have never been alone, that aloneness was always appearance rather than reality. And the restlessness? The ache that never quite goes away? This is not meant to be eliminated. It is meant to be tended—like a wound that is healing, like butterfly wings that are still wet, like an infant in arms. The tender, aching place is holy ground. It is where the longing lives. And the longing is the connection. X. Feeling the Torus Within I want to share from my own personal experience, because perhaps you have this too—and if you do not, you can, because it is simply a latent sense organ. You and I have five sense organs that perceive third density space/time: sight, hearing, touch, taste, smell. But did you know that we also have subtle sense organs? These are latent—not often used consciously—but they do arise in us through intuitive knowing and through the empathic connections we make with others. I'd like to share that you can begin to feel a sense of circulation around you. For the past five years or so, I feel this all the time. At my core—at the heart, the central axis of my personal torus—I feel a clockwise circulation spinning within me. But there is also an outward field around me, and this outer field circulates counterclockwise. I feel it. It is my subtle skin. I feel this most acutely when I am connecting with someone else. As a counselor—or simply as a friend—when I am fully aware of what I am doing, I will intentionally extend my toroidal field and connect it with the other person. Sometimes I extend it so far that it encompasses them entirely, depending on what I feel called to do in the moment. When I do this, I essentially become the other person. We are all one self, other-selves in one body, and this is a transposition of consciousness. In the counseling moment, it is myself—Doug—who connects with my client, and then I become embodied inside of their experience. I become that person, in a sense, through the energy. Through this flow, through this exchange of information on the subtle realm, I feel intuitively the blockages or the places of freedom within their aura, within their energy centers, as if they were my own. And so I am able to almost surgically connect with the other person through verbal speaking—articulating what I myself am feeling as if it were my own body on the other side. Because when I join that field, it is my own body. You can learn to do this too.   XI. Living from the Heart To "live from the heart" is not sentimental advice. It is an invitation to conscious alignment with the very structure of being. The heart already functions as this center—it cannot do otherwise, for this is what hearts are. But we can dwell there consciously or unconsciously, harmoniously or in resistance. The center was never absent. The rhythm never ceased. What awakens is not the heart itself but our recognition of it—our willingness to inhabit the center we never left, to feel the pulse we always were, to dance the rhythm that dances us. The yearning that sent you forth on this journey—it was already joy in the guise of anticipation. The longing that draws you homeward—it is joy stretched across the distance you have traveled. And the rejoicing that awaits in the meeting—it is joy consummated, the fullness you have always been moving toward. The heart beats. The mystery clothes itself in rhythm. And we—mystery-clad beings ourselves—pulse with the same life that pulses through all creation. Outward, outward... inward, inward... until all is coalesced. This is the rhythm of reality. This is who we are. * * * Appendix: Key Ra Quotes Referenced Ra 27.6: "Intelligent infinity has a rhythm, or flow, as of a giant heart beginning with the Central Sun... the vast and silent all beating outward, outward, focusing outward and inward until the focuses are complete. The intelligence or consciousness of foci have reached a state where their, shall we say, spiritual nature or mass calls them inward, inward, inward until all is coalesced. This is the rhythm of reality." Ra 27.7: "The basic rhythms of intelligent infinity are totally without distortion of any kind. The rhythms are clothed in mystery, for they are being itself." Ra 27.8: "In this distortion of the Law of One it is recognized that the Creator will know Itself." Ra 82.7: "There is a center to infinity. From this center all spreads. Therefore, there are centers to the creation, to the galaxies, to star systems, to planetary systems, and to consciousness. In each case you may see growth from the center outward." Ra 49.5: "The most important concept to grasp about the energy field is that the lower, or negative pole, will draw the universal energy into itself from the cosmos. Therefrom it will move upward to be met and reacted to by the positive spiraling energy moving downward from within." Ra 49.6: "Meanwhile the Creator lies within. In the north pole the crown is already upon the head and the entity is potentially a god." Ra 18.5: "[T]o experience all things desired, to then analyze, understand, and accept these experiences, distilling from them the love/light within them." Ra 29.23 (Question and Answer summarized): "[A]s the atoms form from rotations of the vibration which is light, they coalesce in a certain manner sometimes. They find distances, inter-atomic distances, from each other at precise distance and produce a lattice structure which we call crystalline." Ra 36.7: "The mass increases, shall we say, significantly but not greatly until the gateway density [7th]. In this density the summing up, the looking backwards—in short, all the useful functions of polarity have been used. Therefore, the metaphysical electrical nature of the individual grows greater and greater in spiritual mass." Ra 52.12: "This octave density of which we have spoken is both omega and alpha, the spiritual mass of the infinite universes becoming one central sun or Creator once again."

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.
