* Daniel's Diet: This week Fred Williams and Doug McBurney start with an examination of Daniel's dietary test in Babylon, eating "pulse" ( see Webster's last entry here)  and whether or not it points to a vegetarian diet being superior, or a miracle that informs us about God's Mosaic covenant with Israel.   * Dark Cosmology: Otherwise known as "evolutionary cosmology", (no matter how the evolutionists deny it) gets some scrutiny: first from Sabine Hossenfelder on YouTube, then from us! Right here! asking if everything modern cosmology asserts about "Dark Matter" is highly implausible!     * Definitions Matter: Cosmologists study the universe as a whole, and astronomists study objects in space, (and astrologists are often as accurate as either). And all are inherently "low confidence" science based on our application of the "Rob Stadler Scientific Confidence Scale."   * Cosmology Statement: Check out all the real scientists who publicly object to the modern, secular cosmological "Big Bang" model, especially for its reliance on numerous hypothetical, unobserved entities like inflation, dark matter & dark energy.   * Immunologic Evasion: Check out a recent discovery by researchers that retinoic acid, (a byproduct of vitamin A), can inhibit certain immune responses, the discovery of which is helping mankind better understand immune response in cancer treatment!   * Sponsor a Show! Go to our store, buy some biblically oriented science material and sponsor a show!

Episode Description: ❓ “Can a dog truly fulfill its destiny—and what happens when it finally does?” That's the question that launches this unforgettable episode of The Sandy Show, where JB, Sandy, and Tricia explore everything from animal instincts to viral internet moments and the surprising power of children's songs.The show opens with JB's hilarious and heartfelt story about Clyde, his two-year-old border terrier, who finally catches the squirrel he's been chasing for months. “Every dog has a job and they're unfulfilled until they do their job,” JB reflects, sparking a lively discussion about the deep instincts that drive our pets—and maybe us, too.Key moments include:

Is universal expansion slowing? What is the Bubble Universe Theory? Will we control AI, or will AI control us? In this special Chuck GPT episode of The LIUniverse, we answer questions from the Annual Global Summit in Erie, Pennsylvania where Dr. Charles Liu gave a talk on “2050 - The Future of Humanity.” To help ask those questions, Chuck and co-host Allen Liu welcome Stacey Severn, our Social Media Manager/Community Director; and physics student Eleanor Adams, our first intern. As always, though, we start off with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing, suggested by Stacey: the recent discovery of one of the most distant and earliest known galaxies observed, existing just 570 million years after the Big Bang. It's got a supermassive black hole 20 times the mass of ours and was found via gravitational lensing by the Canadian NIRISS Unbiased Cluster Survey (CANUCS) using the James Webb Space Telescope. Then it's time for the main event. Eleanor reads the first Erie audience question from William W., age 13, who asks, “In Bubble Universe Theory, is the force splitting universes apart the same force causing the expansion of the universe, also known as dark energy?” Chuck explains Bubble Universe Theory, aka “Eternal Inflation,” and then how dark energy is different than the forces that cause expansion. Next question: “Have you seen the latest research from South Korea stating universal expansion is actually slowing, thus reducing greatly the amount of dark matter? If it's correct, what are the implications?” Chuck explains the current state of research around the issue, starting with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) survey at the Kitt Peak National Observatory telescope. DESI gave indications of a change in the amount of dark energy being produced; this new study raises questions about how we measure the expansion of the universe using type 1a Supernova. Next question: “What percentage of our global warming does science attribute to man-created activities vs. a natural progression? Even though the world is getting warmer, wouldn't it be worse if the temperature were getting colder?” Chuck looks at the natural progression of the increase of carbon dioxide and compares it with the larger and more rapid increase in CO2 levels since the Industrial Revolution began. As to whether warming or cooling is better, Allen says that while it's a question of magnitude, neither extreme is desirable. Mark M's question is next: “Will we achieve control or effective management of AI, or will it control, or even define, our daily lives? Allen, whose book on AI is coming out soon, says the answer is far from clear cut. He explains that while there are many efforts to ensure we maintain control, there's no guarantee that we'll succeed. Next question from Erie: “How do we prepare our young children to be successful in the Age of AI?” Eleanor talks about how, like social media, you can't stop or avoid AI, but also, like social media, parents can give their children the tools to help them use it. Next: “Many advanced countries have declining populations, while third world countries are gaining population. How do we get tomorrow's scientific leaders from third world education systems?” Chuck says the best way to ensure an ongoing stream of scientific leaders is for advanced countries to continue to welcome immigrants, while Allen points out it is also important to improve the educational systems and opportunities for research in those third world countries. Stacey reminds us about the impact the internet is having on this issue. With time running out, we squeeze in one last question from Erie: “How can the average person influence science policy in a positive direction?” Our consensus answer: people need to participate, speak out, and support others when they do, too.

The universe is vast, mysterious, and constantly evolving. In this insightful astronomy podcast, we sit down with Dr. Sanjaya Poudel, an astronomer and researcher specializing in dwarf galaxies, dark matter, and galaxy formation. Originally from Nepal and currently a research professor at Yonsei University, South Korea, Dr. Poudel shares his journey into science, his fascination with astronomy, and how curiosity about the universe shaped his career. This episode dives deep into what the universe is, the Big Bang theory, and how our observable universe evolved over time. We explore complex yet fascinating ideas such as the flat universe vs curved universe, higher dimensions, and the expanding cosmos. Dr. Poudel explains dark matter, its role in galaxy evolution, and whether dwarf galaxies contain dark matter at all. A major focus of this astrophysics podcast is dwarf galaxies—their properties, formation, alignment around the Milky Way, and why they are considered the fundamental building blocks of the universe. We also discuss how astronomers observe galaxies using world-class telescopes like ESO-VLT, Gemini, VLA, and GMRT, and how astronomy drives technological development. Beyond space science, the conversation highlights challenges in science education and research in Nepal, the importance of promoting scientific thinking, and the future of astronomical research. This episode is perfect for anyone interested in cosmology explained, space science, and understanding how the universe truly works.

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.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. This brings us to a look at some of Arthur C. Clarke's other stories, A Time Odyssey (1951), Tales From the White Hart (1957), The Nine Billion Names of God (1954), The Star (1955), Dolphin Island (1964), and A Meeting With Medusa (1971. These stories will wrap up our look at Clarke's Science Fiction and we have seen a lot of good stuff here. And as a final note, we cover CLarke's Three Laws. Arthur C. Clarke: Other Works, A Time Odyssey A collaboration between two of science fiction's best authors: what could possibly go wrong? Well, something went wrong. This series is not bad, but I hesitate to describe it as good. This series was described by Clarke as neither a prequel nor a sequel, but an “orthoquel”, a name coined from “orthogonal”, which means something roughly like “at right angles”, though it is also used in statistics to denote events that are independent and do not influence each other. And in relativity theory Time is orthogonal to Space. And in multi-dimensional geometry we can talk about axes in each dimension as orthogonal to all of the others. It is something I can't picture, being pretty much limited to three dimensions, but it can be described mathematically. It is sort of like the 2001 series, but not really. It has globes instead of monoliths. And the spheres have a circumference and volume that is related to their radius not by the usual pi, but by exactly three. Just what this means I am not sure, other than they are not sphere's in any usual sense of the word. In this story these spheres seem to be gathering people from various eras and bringing them to some other planet which gets christened “Mir”, though not in any way to the Russian Space Station. It is a Russian word that can mean “peace”, “world”, or “village”. I have seen it used a lot to refer to a village in my studies of Russian history. Anyway, the inhabitants include two hominids, a mother and daughter, a group of British Redcoats, Mongols from the Genghis Khan era, a UN Peacekeeper helicopter, a Russian space capsule, an unknown Rudyard Kipling, the army of Alexander The Great… Well at least they have lots of characters to throw around. They end up taking sides and fighting each other. In the end several of the people are returned to Earth in their own time. But the joke is on them. The beings behind the spheres are call themselves The Firstborn because they were the first to achieve sentience. They figure that best way for them to remain safe is to wipe out any other race that achieves sentience, making them to polar opposite of the beings behind the monoliths in 2001, for whom the mind is sacred. Anyway, the Firstborn have arranged for a massive solar flare that will wipe out all life on Earth and completely sterilize the planet, but conveniently it will happen in 5 years, leaving time for plot development. Of course the people of Earth will try to protect themselves. Then in the third book of the series an ominous object enters the solar system. This is of course a callback to the Rama object. It is like they wanted to take everything from the Rama series and twist it. While I love a lot of Clarke's work and some of Baxter's as well, I think this is eminently skippable. The two of them also collaborated on the final White Hart story, which isn't bad Other Works Tales from the White Hart This collection of short stories has a unity of the setting, a pub called White Hart, where a character tells outrageous stories. Other characters are thinly disguised science fiction authors, including Clarke himself. Clarke mentions that he was inspired to do this by the Jorkens stories of Lord Dunsany, which are also outrageous tall tales, but lacking the science fictions aspects of Clarke's stories. Of course this type of story has a long history, in which we would do well to mention the stories of Baron Munchausen, and of course the stories of L. Sprague de Camp and Fletcher Pratt as found in Tales from Gavagan's Bar. And Spider Robinson would take this basic idea and turn it into a series of books about Callahan's Place. Stories of this type are at least as much Fantasy as anything, but quite enjoyable, and I think I can recommend all of these as worth the time to while away a cold winter's evening while sitting by a warm fire with a beverage of choice. The Nine Billion Names of God This short story won a retrospective Hugo in 2004 as being the best short story of 1954. The idea is that a group of Tibetan monks believe that the purpose of the universe is to identify the nine billion names of God, and once that has been done the universe will no longer have a purpose and will cease to exist. They have been identifying candidates and writing them down, but the work is very slow, so they decide that maybe with a little automation they can speed it up. So they get a computer (and in 1954, you should be picturing a room-sized mainframe), and then hire some Western programmers to develop the program to do this. The programmers don't believe the monks are on to anything here, but a paycheck is a paycheck. They finish the program and start it running, but decide they don't want to be there when the monks discover their theory doesn't work, so they take off early without telling anyone, and head down the mountain. But on the way, they see the stars go out, one by one. The Star This classic short story won the Hugo for Best Short Story in 1956. The story opens with the return of an interstellar expedition that has been studying a system where the star went nova millennia ago. But the expedition's astrophysicist, a Jesuit Priest, seems to be in a crisis of faith. And if you think it implausible that a Jesuit Priest could also be an astrophysicist, I would suggest you look into the case of the Belgian priest Georges Lemaître, who first developed the theory of the Big Bang. Anyway, in the story, they learn that this system had a planet much like Earth, and it had intelligent beings much like Earth, who were peaceful, but in a tragic turn of events they knew that their star was going to explode, but they had no capability of interstellar travel. So they created a repository on the outermost planet of the system that would survive the explosion, and left records of their civilization. And when the Jesuit astrophysicist calculated the time of the explosion and the travel time for light, he is shaken: “[O]h God, there were so many stars you could have used. What was the need to give these people to the fire, that the symbol of their passing might shine above Bethlehem?” Dolphin Island This is a good Young Adult novel about the People of the Sea, who are dolphins. They save a young boy who had stowed away on a hovership that subsequently had crashed, and because no one knew about him he was left among the wreckage when the crew takes off in the life boats. And from here it is the typical Bildungsroman you find in most Young Adult novels. The dolphins bring him to an island, where he becomes involved with a research community led by a professor who is trying to communicate with dolphins. He learns various skills there, survives dangers, and in the end has to risk his life to save the people on the island. If you have a 13 year old in your house, this is worth looking for. A Meeting With Medusa This won the 1972 Nebula Award for Best Novella. It concerns one Howard Falcon, who early in the story has an accident involving a helium-filled airship, is badly injured, and requires time and prosthetics to heal. But then he promotes an expedition to Jupiter that uses similar technology, a Hot-Hydrogen balloon-supported aircraft. This is to explore the upper reaches of Jupiter's atmosphere, which is the only feasible way to explore given the intense gravity of this giant planet. Attempting to land on the solid surface would mean being crushed by the gravity and air pressure, so that is not possible. The expedition finds there is life in the upper clouds of Jupiter. Some of it is microscopic, like a kind of “air plankton” which is bio-luminescent. But there are large creatures as well, one of which is like jellyfish, but about a mile across. This is the Medusa of the title. Another is Manta-like creature, about 100 yards across, that preys on the Medusa. But when the Medusa starts to take an interest on Falcon's craft, he decides to get out quick for safety's sake. And we learn that because of the various prosthetics implanted after the airship accident Falcon is really a cyborg with much faster reactions than ordinary humans. As we have discussed previously, Clarke loved the sea, and in this novella he is using what he knows in that realm to imagine a plausible ecology in the atmosphere of Jupiter. Of course when he wrote this novella no one knew about the truly frightening level of radiation around Jupiter, but then a clever science fiction writer could come up with a way to work around that. Clarke's Three Laws Finally, no discussion of Arthur C. Clarke can omit his famous Three Laws. Asimov had his Three Laws of Robotics, and Clarke had his Three Laws of Technology. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. This concludes our look at Arthur C. Clarke, the second of the Big Three of the Golden Age of Science Fiction. And that means we are ready to tackle the Dean of Science Fiction, Robert A. Heinlein.

Can science actually PROVE God exists? Dr. Antony Latham joins us to explore how the cosmos, consciousness, and the complexity of life all point to divine design—and why the Big Bang might be Christianity's best friend.In this episode of Remnant Radio, Joshua Lewis sits down with retired physician and author Dr. Antony Latham to tackle one of the most critical questions facing believers today: Does science contradict Christian faith, or does it actually confirm it? From his own journey as a teenage skeptic who lost faith studying evolution to becoming a Christian in Kenya and diving deep into biology, consciousness, and cosmology, Antony brings a unique perspective that bridges the gap between the lab and the sanctuary.​What We Discuss:-The Big Bang & Biblical Creation -Fine-Tuning of the Universe-The Cambrian Explosion-Consciousness & the Soul -Moral Law & Objective Beauty -Miracles & an Open Universe Whether you're wrestling with doubts about faith and science, or you're looking for solid apologetic tools to strengthen your biblical worldview, this conversation will equip you with evidence-based answers rooted in both Scripture and scientific discovery. 0:00 - Introduction1:04 - From Skeptic to Scientist to Believer5:13 - Big Bang: Friend or Foe to Christian Faith?9:20 - Fine-Tuning Arguments & Cosmological Evidence12:17 - String Theory & Multiple Universe Objections14:03 - The Exquisite Precision of Universal Constants15:37 - God of the Gaps Argument Addressed17:04 - Origin of Life & Irreducible Complexity19:30 - Old Earth Creation & Genesis Interpretation22:56 - The Cambrian Explosion & Fossil Record28:03 - Reading Genesis 1 Poetically & Theologically31:17 - Consciousness & Evidence for the Immaterial Soul35:17 - Moral Objectivity, Beauty, & Free Will41:02 - Mind-Body Dualism & Christian Worldview43:03 - Taking Back Science for the KingdomABOUT THE GUEST:

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 29 Episode 9In this episode of SpaceTime, we unravel the enigma of the universe's mysterious little red dots, delve into groundbreaking insights from Jupiter regarding the evolution of our solar system's planets, and mark the commencement of construction on Earth's largest gamma-ray observatory.The Mystery of the Little Red DotsA fascinating new study reveals that the enigmatic little red dots observed in early images from the NASA Webb Space Telescope are, in fact, young black holes cloaked in ionized gas. Researchers from the Niels Bohr Institute's Cosmic Dawn Center have determined that these black holes, much smaller than previously thought, are in the process of consuming gas, which creates immense heat and radiation, giving them their distinctive red appearance. This discovery sheds light on the formation of some of the universe's earliest black holes just 700 million years after the Big Bang.Jupiter's Role in Planetary EvolutionNew simulations indicate that Jupiter may contain up to 50% more oxygen than the Sun, providing fresh insights into how the planets in our solar system formed. By developing a comprehensive model of Jupiter's atmosphere, researchers have resolved a long-standing debate regarding the gas giant's chemical composition. The findings suggest that Jupiter's atmosphere circulates much more slowly than previously believed, which could alter our understanding of planetary migration and formation processes.Construction of Earth's Largest Gamma-Ray ObservatoryEngineers have officially begun construction on the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory, set to be the largest gamma-ray telescope ever built. Located in Chile's Atacama Desert, this observatory will significantly enhance our ability to study high-energy cosmic phenomena, such as black holes and supernovae. With over 60 telescopes across two sites, the observatory will allow astronomers to observe gamma rays with unprecedented accuracy, potentially unlocking new discoveries about dark matter and the fundamental laws of physics.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature JournalPlanetary Science JournalAdvances in Atmospheric SciencesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) New study reveals little red dots in Webb images are young black holes(00:07:30) Jupiter may have 50% more oxygen than the Sun, reshaping planetary formation theories(00:15:45) Construction begins on the Cherenkov Telescope Array Observatory(00:22:00) New data confirms 2025 saw record ocean heat storage(00:25:30) Advances in autonomous driving technology showcased at CES 2026.

A @Christadelphians Video: **[OVER 18 MILLION PLAYS SO FAR!]**In this thought-provoking presentation from the sixth season of Bible Unlocked Live, we tackle one of the most significant obstacles to faith: the reality of miracles.

Some Christians believe that God's words in Genesis 1:3, "Let there be light," . . are a biblical description of the Big Bang that some scientists say created the universe. But perhaps we Christians should be a little more careful about assuming that modern science knows very much about the origin of the universe.Astronomers recently announced that they had discovered the largest structure yet to be found in the universe. They described the structure as a great wall made up of high concentrations of galaxies. Just to get our perspective, the average galaxy contains over 1 billion stars. The great wall contains concentrated "clumps" of galaxies!This discovery delivers two apparently fatal blows to the Big Bang theory. If the universe was the result of the Big Bang, scientists would expect to find stars evenly distributed in space, not "clumped" together and certainly not built into giant structures. Second, the clumps of galaxies they found are very precisely and evenly spaced—not the kind of order that results from an explosion. One of the researchers said, "It is safe to say that we understand less than zero about the early universe."There is another good reason for Christians not to try to find the Big Bang in Genesis. According to the Bible, it is the end of the world and the universe, not its beginning, that could more accurately be described as a "big bang." Christ Himself has completed your preparations for that day. Are you ready?Isaiah 34:4"All the hosts of heaven shall be dissolved, and the heavens shall be rolled up like a scroll; all their host shall fall down as the leaf falls from the vine, and as fruit falling from a fig tree."Prayer: Dear Lord; I cling to Your saving work for my preparation for the end of the world. Be with me now and prepare me to spend eternity with You. Amen.REF.: Galaxy clumps' may shed light on cosmic creation. Minneapolis Star Tribune.

In this conversation, we dive deep into why the universe may be fundamentally, intrinsically random. Whether inflation on life support, the truth behind the Hubble tension, and whether cosmology is approaching the event horizon, limits beyond which humans can never know. Today we're joined by one of the architects of modern cosmological inference, Professor Andrew Jaffee, author of a new book called The Random Universe that argues that every observation in science is shaped by the models we bring to it, biases and all. KEY TAKEAWAYS 00:00–01:13 — Science and life rely on building models. 01:13–03:35 — Models of people and reality are often wrong and revised. 04:04–06:01 — Observation depends on prior theories. 06:01–07:32 — Models can't be escaped, only improved. 07:32–08:57 — No single scientific method exists. 08:57–11:25 — Science uses induction, not pure proof. 11:25–13:22 — Induction isn't certain, only probabilistic. 13:22–15:36 — Induction works because nature is regular. 17:44–19:08 — Big Bang emerges from well-tested models. 19:08–21:15 — Current cosmology is stressed, not broken. 29:19–30:36 — Probability gives meaning to models. 39:45–41:11 — Randomness often reflects limited knowledge. 43:46–45:00 — Quantum physics is fundamentally probabilistic. 49:09–50:04 — Inflation awaits decisive observational tests. - Additional resources: Get My NEW Book: Focus Like a Nobel Prize Winner: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FN8DH6SX?ref_=pe_93986420_775043100 Please join my mailing list here

Or is there more going on beneath the surface that she can't see? Women love to have fun—but trying to figure out whether your interest in her is real, or whether you're just engaging her for a quick ego boost before disappearing, is not a game she wants to play.It often surprises men how accepting women are of desires the men themselves have difficulty accepting.

In this unedited, on-site conversation with cosmologist Dr. Brian Keating, we examine what counts as evidence in modern physics by pressing on one of cosmology's most trusted observations: the cosmic microwave background. The discussion centers on a core tension between measurement and interpretation—specifically whether a near-perfect black body spectrum can reasonably be attributed to an early-universe plasma. As assumptions about the Big Bang, black body radiation, and material physics are questioned, the exchange becomes increasingly uncomfortable, revealing how deeply theoretical commitments shape scientific judgment. What emerges is not a verdict, but a rare, unfiltered look at how evidence, authority, and first principles collide in contemporary physics.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go!

Patrick brings listeners along for lively exchanges on faith and science, jumping from questions about creation and the age of the Earth to practical tips for receiving the Eucharist. Patrick continues his conversation with Joseph from the end of the last hour talking about how old the Earth really is and if the Big Bang really happened (00:31) Wally - I think Catholics and Protestants get along well in my country. I don't understand why this can't happen in the USA. A lot of people's observations about Catholics have changed because of this. (08:20) Garth - How to properly consume the Eucharist (13:30) Zach - How do you interpret sin and death, and Adam and Eve, along with the theory of Evolution? (20:59) Kenny - I want to address what it says in Genesis. There was morning and evening. I think we have a supernatural God who does supernatural things and the Earth can be young. (28:23) Alicia - How can I be more Catholic? I feel weak to my own flesh. (33:43) Amy – Do you need to be married legally first before getting married in the Church? (43:43) Denise - I get a lot of Catholic stuff in the mail. What can I throw out and what do I have to keep? (48:09)

In this episode Chris brings us Opinion Scholarship on the legendary Jesuit priest and anthropologist--Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. We explore his landmark book "The Phenomenon of Man" and through it his theistic (and yet heretical) model of evolution. We begin from the moment of Creation, from the Big Bang, and walk through the process of the universe up to the rise of mankind and his unique expression of consciousness. Then the fun begins! We explore Chardin's vision of the direction of evolution, the nature of consciousness and speculations about what the next stages of evolution will bring. Spoiler alert, it's God...the culmination of evolution is the actualization of the divine! Enjoy ;)

Steve Martin: Why Agile Fatigue Means We Need to Change Our Approach Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes.   "We teach transformation, we support transformation, we help change, but we don't really understand what they're changing from." - Steve Martin   Steve believes Agile as a whole is on the back foot, possibly regressing. There's palpable fatigue in the industry, and transformation in its current form hasn't been the success we hoped. Organizations still need to work in a state of agility—making rapid decisions, aligning teams, delivering value at pace—but they're exhausted by how we've implemented Agile. As Agile professionals, Steve argues, we have a responsibility to take stock and reflect on what's not working. The problem isn't that organizations don't need agility; it's that we've been force-feeding them frameworks without understanding their context. Steve invokes an ancient principle: "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear." But we haven't waited for readiness—we've barged in with Big Bang transformations, bringing 10, 15, or 20 Agile coaches to "save the world." The solution requires meeting people where they are, understanding what they're changing from, not just what they're changing to. Steve's coaching conversation centers on a radical idea: stop trying to help teams that don't want to be helped. Focus on teams already interested in incremental, adaptable delivery. Run small pilots, learn what works, then scale when ready. The age of prescriptive transformation is over. We need to adapt to the reality of the moment, experiment with what works, and have the courage to change the plan when our approach isn't working.   Self-reflection Question: Are you forcing Agile on teams that aren't ready, or are you working with those who genuinely want to improve their delivery approach?   [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary Gary - Series 28 Episode 153In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into thrilling new missions and groundbreaking discoveries in the universe.Ramses Mission to Asteroid ApophisThe European Space Agency has greenlit an exciting new mission to study the infamous doomsday asteroid Apophis. The Ramses spacecraft will closely observe the 450-meter-wide asteroid as it makes a close flyby of Earth on April 13, 2029, at a mere 32,000 kilometers away—closer than many satellites. Initially feared to be on a collision course with Earth, further observations have since ruled out the threat of impact. However, the Ramses mission aims to understand how Earth's gravitational forces might affect Apophis during this close encounter, potentially setting the stage for future impacts. The spacecraft will deploy smaller probes to monitor changes in Apophis's orbit, rotation, and surface, providing vital data for planetary defense and insight into the evolution of asteroids.Solving the Mystery of ExistenceIn a groundbreaking study, scientists at CERN have made strides in explaining the universe's existence by observing a slight imbalance in the behavior of matter and antimatter. This charge parity (CP) violation suggests that a tiny difference favored matter over antimatter during the Big Bang, allowing the universe to evolve into its current state. The findings, based on 80,000 decays of the Lambda beauty particle, indicate a significant deviation that could reshape our understanding of the cosmos.The Largest Planetary Nursery Ever SeenAstronomers have discovered the largest planetary nursery ever observed, located in a massive protoplanetary disk around a young star. This chaotic environment, cataloged as IRAS230776707, spans an astonishing 650 billion kilometers and showcases intricate structures that hint at the complex processes of planet formation. The observations, made using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, reveal a unique perspective on how planetary systems may develop in extreme conditions, raising new questions about the dynamics shaping these disks.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrophysical JournalNatureCERN ReportsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 153 for broadcast on 29 December 2025(00:00:47) ESA's Ramses mission to study asteroid Apophis(00:12:30) CERN's discovery of matter-antimatter imbalance(00:20:10) Astronomers observe the largest protoplanetary disk ever found(00:25:00) New insights into sleep apnea and mental health risks(00:28:30) Potential discovery of a new ancient human species

THE ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERY OF THE BIG BANG Colleague Professor Paul Halpern. Halpern explains how a horror movie inspired the Steady State theory, which posits that new matter is continuously created to maintain cosmic density. Ironically, Hoyle coined the term "Big Bang" as a derisive label during a radio broadcast, preferring his continuous creation model. The segment highlights Hoyle's genius in calculating how carbon forms in dying stars, a necessity for life. However, the debate shifted decisively when Penzias and Wilson accidentally discovered the cosmic microwave background hiss. This radiation, identified by Robert Dicke's team, provided the observational proof that vindicated Gamow's hot origin theory. NUMBER 3 AUGUST 1938

NOBEL SNUBS AND LATER CONTROVERSIES Colleague Professor Paul Halpern. In the aftermath of the Big Bang's confirmation, Gamow fought for recognition of his prior theoretical contributions before his death in 1968. Halpern discusses the controversy surrounding the Nobel Prize for nucleosynthesis, which was awarded to William Fowler but excluded Hoyle, possibly due to misconceptions by the nominators. In his later years, Hoyle became a controversial figure, promoting panspermia—the idea that diseases like AIDS come from comets—and rejecting Darwinian evolution. Halpern concludes by describing both men as intuitive, "seat of the pants" thinkers who preferred spontaneity over rigid archival research. NUMBER 4 1960

Part 4 of the M.A.D.E. series, looking back at BigBang's journey to the album I consider the high water mark of K-Pop. This episode covers 2010-2011.

Tras el Big Bang, solo había hidrógeno, helio y un poco de litio. El oxígeno, necesario para hacer agua (H2O), tuvo que "cocinarse" en el interior de las primeras estrellas y ser expulsado al espacio después, cuando éstas murieron. Esto convierte a este descubrimiento en la reserva más grande y, sobre todo, la más antigua de agua que se conoce hasta la fecha. El agua, por lo tanto, no es una rareza moderna; es una parte intrínseca de la historia antigua del cosmos. El agua que han detectado no es líquida, como la de nuestros mares, sino una niebla "espesa" y "caliente" (en términos cósmicos) que envuelve por completo al agujero negro. En el cuásar APM 08279+5255, el agua no puede congelarse. La energía del agujero negro la mantiene en estado gaseoso, excitada, emitiendo señales de radio que han viajado por el universo durante 12.000 millones de años hasta llegar al espectrómetro Z-Spec en el Observatorio Submilimétrico de Caltech, en Hawái, y al interferómetro de Plateau de Bure en los Alpes franceses. Es gracias a estos instrumentos que hemos podido "leer" la firma química del agua a través del abismo del tiempo.

Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Jason Lisle joins Todd for this episode of Wretched Radio. Segment 1 • Astronomy reveals God's design; astrology denies Him and is condemned in Scripture. • James Webb Telescope findings shock secularists—mature galaxies where none “should” exist. • Science confirms Scripture: the universe looks designed because it is. Segment 2 • Intelligent design without Christ still leaves you lost—salvation requires the gospel. • The universe's perfect balance exposes the myth of cosmic randomness. • Creation confirms Scripture and calls us to bold, Christ-centered apologetics. Segment 3 • Denying Adam's literal existence crumbles the foundation of sin, death, and redemption. • Genesis reads as real history—grammar, structure, and Jesus affirm it. • Evolutionary compromise leads to gospel confusion and theological collapse. Segment 4 • Old-earth views distort sin, death, and the atonement—Christ died physically because Adam's sin was physical. • Popular theories (Day-Age, Gap Theory) conflict with Scripture and science. • Literal Genesis was the historic church view—until secular science shaped theology. ___ Thanks for listening!

Today is the December solstice – the start of winter in the northern hemisphere. It’s the darkest time of the year – many hours of darkness for watching the stars. But it’s also a great time for space science in Antarctica, where it’s daylight around the clock. NASA launches high-altitude balloons from a base near McMurdo Station, the continent’s largest settlement. Their payloads can keep an eye on the heavens for weeks as they circle around the south pole. When their work is done, they parachute to the ice. Scientists from the United States, Japan, and other countries hunt for meteorites in Antarctica. There aren’t more meteorites there, but on the ice, there’s a good chance that almost any rock came from beyond Earth. Over the decades, tens of thousands of meteorites have been found there. Astronomers take advantage of the daylight to repair and upgrade telescopes at the south pole. The collection includes instruments that study the “afterglow” of the Big Bang. The instruments can operate even in daylight, but the southern summer is the only time to do most of the maintenance work. The south pole also is home to IceCube – a collection of thousands of light detectors frozen in the ice. They look for neutrinos – particles that tell us about some of the most energetic events in the universe. IceCube can also operate all year – even under the midnight sun at the south pole.

On the very LAST episode of Stripped by SIA, I invite erotic massage parlour owners, Emily and Riley Muse of MUSE Massage Spa onto the show to speak about sensual massages. As both of them are former SWers in erotic massages, the duo were unlikely business partners having started off as colleagues and then later coming up with the idea together to open up their own massage parlour. They opened up MUSE after wanting to disrupt the massage industry in Toronto having worked in the field themselves. We discuss popular offerings, client requests and asks, and how they have seen the industry change over the years. I had to go out with a Big Bang and have these ladies on as my last guests.Thank you ALL who have listened to even just one episode, those who have been there from the start, every single guest, every Patreon member, every brand new baby SWer and those who have been well-seasoned in this industry... Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for listening over the past 6 years, 8 seasons and 290 episodes later...I'm closing this chapter (of podcasting, not SW or advocacy!) of my life and looking forward to what 2026 will be bringing. Thank you to everyone who I've met this industry and hope to stay connected and see you all at other community events!- Sia

De la mano de Mado Martinez, descubrimos la ciencia en La Rosa de los vientos, el programa de Historia, misterio e investigacion de las madrugadas del sabado y del domingo en Onda Cero, conducido por de Bruno Cardenosa y Silvia Casasola.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover groundbreaking discoveries and exciting celestial events that illuminate our understanding of the universe.Earliest Supernova Ever DetectedAstronomers have achieved a remarkable milestone by detecting the earliest supernova ever observed, dating back to a mere 730 million years after the Big Bang. Using the powerful Webb Space Telescope, this supernova, cataloged as GRB250314A, emitted a gamma ray burst that has shattered previous distance records. Lead author Andrew Levin shares insights into how this discovery provides a glimpse into the universe when it was only 5% of its current age, revealing surprising similarities with modern supernovae despite the vast differences in their epochs.Liquid Water on Mars: New EvidenceNew seismic data from NASA's Mars InSight lander suggests that liquid water could still exist beneath the Martian surface, potentially providing a habitat for microbial life. The analysis of marsquakes has revealed boundaries in the Martian crust that indicate the presence of water-filled cracks, offering compelling evidence that life may persist on the Red Planet. We discuss the implications of these findings and the methodologies used to analyze the Martian subsurface.The Great Geminids Meteor Shower of 2025The annual Geminid meteor shower is reaching its peak, presenting stargazers with the chance to witness up to 100 meteors per hour under optimal conditions. Unlike many meteor showers that originate from comets, the Geminids are unique as they come from the asteroid 3200 Phaethon. Dr. Robert Massey provides tips on how to best observe this spectacular celestial event, emphasizing the importance of dark skies and the naked eye for optimal viewing.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstronomy and AstrophysicsBritish Medical JournalNature CommunicationsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.(00:00:00) New clues suggest that liquid water could still exist on Mars today(00:00:48) Astronomers have detected the earliest supernova ever seen using the Webb Space Telescope(00:05:10) New study based on seismic data suggests liquid water may still exist on Mars(00:09:12) The Geminids are visible between now and December 20th(00:13:10) New study finds coffee may slow down biological aging of people with mental illnesses

Space is full of some of the strangest and most breath-taking objects in existence. Among them, black holes sit right at the top of the list. They're so powerful that nothing, not even light, can escape their pull. They push the limits of physics and challenge how mainstream scientists think the universe formed.

Let's put that matter to rest before the Scientific Materialism decides on another assault. It's an honor to be joined by Olivier Bonnassies, author of God, the Science, the Evidence. We'll explore a compelling compilation of rational arguments supporting the existence of a creator God, asserting that modern science has unexpectedly become an ally of belief over the past century, fundamentally redefining the debate over existence. The investigation covers pivotal scientific breakthroughs, including the evidence for an absolute beginning to the universe (the Big Bang), the astonishingly precise fine-tuning of physical constants, and the profoundly unlikely emergence of life from inert matter. This comprehensive approach extends beyond the laboratory to examine evidence from philosophy, ethics, and historical enigmas, revealing how deeply the materialist worldview is challenged and demonstrating its resulting lack of rational justification.

It's Witness Wednesday! Today, Todd ventures on campus at Georgia Tech to have conversations about Christ, truth, and the afterlife. He meets students Ryan and Dallas and encourages them to trust in the reality and truth of the gospel of Christ. Segment 1 • Todd uses Ryan's Chick-fil-A sandwich to argue for intelligent design. • Ryan, an agnostic-leaning student, wrestles with the idea of creation vs. the Big Bang. • Todd gently calls out Ryan's reluctance to accept a Creator, and the possible motive behind it. Segment 2 • Todd probes deeper into Ryan's conscience. • Ryan admits he'd be found guilty if judged by God, but still doubts the justice or existence of such a being. • Ryan doubts Todd's ability to know this truth, but affirms his logic. Segment 3 • Todd meets Dallas, a witty nuclear engineering student who might say he is spiritual but not religious. • Dallas admits to moral failings but assumes God will be “understanding.” • Todd points Dallas towards Christ taking his punishment for him. Segment 4 • Todd outlines the gospel — forgiveness through Jesus, not good works — but Dallas hesitates, hung up on religion and the name “Jesus.” • Dallas responds to the gospel with sarcasm and dismissal. • Todd encourages you: respond to the gospel in faith - don't dismiss it. ___ Thanks for listening!

s of the Hubble Constant — Bob Zimmerman — Zimmerman outlines a fundamental crisis in cosmological understanding regarding the Hubble constant, the astronomical parameter measuring the rate at which the universe is systematically expanding across time and space. Zimmerman documents that the measurement crisis stems from irreducible conflicting empirical data: when astronomers measure the early universe using distant supernovae and cosmic microwave background radiation, they derive a lower expansion rate number, yet when they measure the near universeusing contemporary observations of local galactic clusters, they derive a significantly higher expansion rate number. Zimmerman emphasizes that this discrepancy does not result from imprecise or unreliable data; rather, both measurement methodologies have become increasingly sophisticated and accurate, yet the fundamental contradiction persists despite technological improvements. Zimmerman argues that the persistent contradiction between two highly accurate but incompatible numerical values indicates that "something is fundamentally wrong with the cosmology and the theories," suggesting that current scientific understanding of the Big Bang, cosmic evolution, and the universe's fundamental physical properties contains critical errors requiring radical theoretical revision. Zimmerman employs an analogy: if measuring a child's growth rate during their first year of life predicted they should be 4 feet tall, but contemporary measurement reveals them to be 5 feet tall, and both measurements are perfectly accurate, then the mathematical formula governing human growth is fundamentally flawed—similarly, the Hubble constant contradiction suggests current cosmological models misunderstand the universe's fundamental physics and evolutionary trajectory.

In this episode, we explore two of the most mind-bending and controversial topics of our time: the nature of the cosmos and the truth behind so-called “contact.” These themes—drawn from Mark Gober's books An End to the Upside Down Cosmos and An End to Upside Down Contact—take us straight into the heart of scientific assumptions, cultural conditioning, and what it really means to seek truth in a world built on inherited narratives.Mark and I dig into why foundational claims about cosmology, physics, and even medicine may not be supported by direct evidence, and how easily our collective worldview can be shaped by unexamined premises. From the Big Bang, dark matter, and the globe model to NASA imagery, eclipses, and observational anomalies, we break down what can actually be verified—and what cannot. The goal isn't to replace one belief system with another, but to follow a disciplined, evidence-based approach that challenges dogma on all sides.We also explore why questioning these topics triggers such strong reactions. Mark explains how career investment, identity, compartmentalization, and cultural reinforcement keep people aligned with consensus models—even when contradictions are hiding in plain sight. The conversation moves beyond physics into consciousness, spirituality, and the possibility that confusion about where we live may be part of a much larger, long-running strategy to disconnect humanity from its inherent power. If you're curious, skeptical, or simply hungry for deeper clarity in a world drowning in assumptions, this episode will challenge your perspective in the best possible way.DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for educational purposes only and not intended for diagnosing or treating illnesses.
