BLACK HOLES, THE BIG BANG & ALIEN LIFE: Astrophysicist Janna Levin Breaks Down the UniverseEver wondered what existed before the Big Bang? Or why all planets are different, and why Earth is so perfectly suited for life?In this mind-expanding episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, renowned astrophysicist and author of Black Hole Survival Guide, Janna Levin (Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Barnard College of Columbia University), takes us on a cosmic journey through the deepest mysteries of the universe, and how they reflect back on what it means to be human.From the terrifying truth about black holes to the surprising science behind moons, planets, and even nuclear weapons, we're answering space questions you didn't even know you had.Janna Levin breaks down:- Everything You've Ever Wondered About the Big Bang: What came before it, myths, how it created space and time- What is Time and how do black holes bend it?- Why planets are round- What moons really are (and the wild origin of our Moon)- How stars give birth to planets- What black holes are, what happens inside, and their role in the fundamentals of physics- Why some stars become black holes and others don't- How Einstein and Oppenheimer cracked the code on black holes and how we observe them today- What would happen if our Sun became a black hole and could we actually fall into one?- Spooky effects of black holes on time & space (Could they teach us to age slower?)- Why there's likely a black hole at the center of every galaxy- Why Janna Levin believes we'll discover alien life within 50 years & what it could look like (it will likely be on moons, not planets!)- Will our tragic reliance on tech destroy us, or save us?- Can we make tech more compatible with nature?- Why advancing tech increases the generational gap- Why Janna doesn't believe AI will ever become truly conscious- Why the universe is considered left-handed- What would happen if the Sun were knocked out of our system- Nuclear weapons & how they were invented through studying the Sun- Parallels between nature and cosmic phenomena across the universeThis episode of MBB is really all about the growing hunger in society to understand the cosmos, and therefore, ourselves. Don't miss this mind-blowing journey into the heart of space, time, existence, and our place in it all!

Lost throughput opportunity is the silent and permanent cash killer. It's silent because it's hard to notice. You can see payroll. You can see churn. But you can’t see the products that never shipped, or the hour you can’t recover. And it's permanent because you can't ever get that cash opportunity back. A lost shipping opportunity is gone, forever. Idle time doesn’t show up on your P&L while still bleeding you dry.

In tonight's episode, we take a look at three topics that keep sparking debates in their respective scientific communities:  • The existence of supermassive black holes at the center of galaxies, which are several million times more massive than "regular" black holes born from supernovas. Did these gigantic black holes appear as such, did they become so big by absorbing other bodies for billions of years, or is it something else?  • Deep-Sea Gigantism, the fact that many species living deep under water become much bigger than their shallow waters relatives, despite living in an environment that offers much less food.  • The climate on Venus: was it always as harsh, or did this planet once looked more like Earth before its atmosphere shifted dramatically?    #sleep #bedtimestory #asmr #sleepstory #science Welcome to Lights Out Library Join me for a sleepy adventure tonight.

What happens if you fall into a black hole? What would it sound like? What would you see? Dean Regas chats with Dr. Janna Levin, Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Barnard College of Columbia University, to find out the answers to these questions and more.

In this episode of Tiny Show and Tell Us, we get to the bottom of if glass is a liquid or a solid and why riboflavin makes milk fluorescent. Then we talk about the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA) — the first space-based observatory that NASA scientists and their collaborators are sending up into space to detect and study gravitational waves, better known as “ripples in spacetime.” We need your stories — they're what make these bonus episodes possible!

I dive into Pinnacle Frequency — the art of starting at the ultimate vision rather than climbing to it step by step. Most people approach their goals linearly, believing the pinnacle is the reward at the end of effort. But when you operate from the Pinnacle from the start, joy, synchronicity, and high-frequency manifestation flow naturally.We explore the spiritual mechanics behind Lightness of Being, the Black Hole of Becoming, and the journey to $10M Consciousness — where authenticity dissolves masks, opens the heart, and aligns your nervous system to quantum-level creation. I share personal stories of effortless manifestations, the role of coherence in the biofield, and how generosity, community, and enthusiasm amplify the frequency of wealth.Whether you're looking to expand your manifestation capacity, understand the energetics of high-level money, or activate the joy of creation, this episode offers a field-aligned transmission for women ready to quantum leap beyond the linear path.Key Takeaways:Why the Pinnacle is not the destination, but the starting point for manifestation.How operating from the Pinnacle invokes synchronicity and accelerates results.The concept of the Black Hole of Becoming and why collapse precedes lightness.Understanding Lightness of Being as coherence of frequency, nervous system, and heart.How authenticity dissolves the mask and frees creative energy.The energetics of $10M consciousness: safety, generosity, and effortless manifestation.The role of enthusiasm and community in attracting abundance and alignment.Who this episode is for:Women breaking through $1M+, ready to embody the frequency of $10M+, dissolve limiting patterns, and step fully into their Pinnacle vision.Resources & Links:Learn more about working with me at the Crystalline Mastermind for women moving to $10M+ consciousness.Follow me on jessfenton.substack.com for ongoing insights on high-frequency manifestation.www.goinward.co.ukwww.instagram.com/goinwardjess@goinward.co.uk

Theoretical Physicist Andrew Strominger explains what exactly black holes are and how they could tell us about the beginning of the cosmos.In this episode, Andrew discusses the questions behind black holes, the strange physics at their event horizon, what they reveal about the nature of space and time, and how he, Stephen Hawking, and Malcolm Perry helped develop the theory that "soft hairs" may store information on black holes' surface. From leading minds like Einstein, Hawking, and Strominger, our understanding of these celestial bodies is constantly evolving, and we still have so much to learn.

Rachel Reeves gets her moment in Liverpool, but Sam and Anne explain why the podium at Labour conference might be the second biggest thing of her week.  By Friday, the OBR will have put a number on the size of the black hole – the money she's got to find to fund policy u-turns on policies such as winter fuel.  You're not getting that number from anyone from government in Liverpool though.   Elsewhere, Andy Burnham is still in lots of the conversations – and we hear what members of the Cabinet are getting about him in their WhatsApps.

Send us a textMitch issues his challenge to the U.S. Marshal Service. He talks about an app he would develop to reduce deliveries during rush hour in the city. He then explains he would launch a software company designed to help small and regional businesses that wouldn't sell out to a larger corporation. We have the technology to make everyone a millionaire rather than having three Billionaires. Mitch talks about a tax law that helps create long lasting products in the United States. If elected president he would initiate an extended warranty program for all goods sold in the United States. This program involves a tax credit used to pay for the warranties and ensures a company's warranty program brings in equal revenue as the initial manufacturing. This equation means that products will begin lasting longer as we move forward.Support the show

In this episode of SpaceTime, we dive into the cosmos to uncover the secrets of the early universe, explore the potential for black hole atmospheres, and examine the intriguing history of habitability on Mars, alongside the launch of a new deep space antenna by the European Space Agency.Mysterious Red Dots in the Early UniverseAstronomers have identified a population of enigmatic red dots in the early universe, potentially representing exotic stellar atmospheres around ancient black holes. These findings, published in Astronomy and Astrophysics, could bridge the gap in understanding the rapid growth of supermassive black holes. The Webb Space Telescope's observations suggest these objects might be a new class of celestial body, challenging existing models of galaxy formation and offering insights into the origins of galaxies.Multiple Episodes of Habitability on MarsNASA's Perseverance rover has provided compelling evidence that Mars's Jezero Crater experienced multiple episodes of liquid water flooding, each capable of supporting life. By analysing geochemical data, scientists have identified various minerals that reveal a dynamic history of volcanic activity and water interactions, suggesting a complex aqueous past that could have fostered life on the Red Planet.European Space Agency's New Deep Space DishThe European Space Agency is set to inaugurate its latest Australian deep space antenna at the Norcia tracking station in Western Australia. This 35-metre parabolic dish will enhance ESA's deep space communications capabilities, supporting missions and ensuring robust data transmission from spacecraft exploring our solar system. The new facility complements ESA's existing network of antennas worldwide, reinforcing their commitment to deep space exploration.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstronomy and Astrophysicshttps://www.aanda.org/Journal of Geophysical Research Planetshttps://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/21699356European Space Agencyhttps://www.esa.int/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Mysterious Red Dots in the Early UniverseMultiple Episodes of Habitability on MarsEuropean Space Agency's New Deep Space Dish

Episode 322 An ancient skull discovered in China may have just rewritten the story of human evolution. It's widely accepted that the common ancestor of Homo sapiens, Denisovans and Neanderthals came out of Africa. But this skull upends that assumption - potentially showing human evolution began in Asia. Discover how a new reconstruction of the Yunxian fossil skull could push back human origins by 400,000 years. Tylenol does not cause autism. The US government has made headlines with claims that this common painkiller, also known as paracetamol, is playing a big role in what's been falsely dubbed the ‘autism epidemic'. As Donald Trump and Robert F Kennedy Jr call for pregnant women to avoid Tylenol, we discuss what we know from science, and hear from medical experts of the danger of this new advice. Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy, is more active than we thought. Historically our black hole has seemed rather quiet. But a new discovery shows the first clear evidence of winds - streams of hot gas - coming from it. The finding could help us figure out what Sag A* looks like and what it'll do in the future. Chapters: (00:00) Intro (01:05) This skull could rewrite the story of human evolution (16:39) Autism and Tylenol (26:26) Black hole discovery Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet, with guests Michael Marshall, Grace Wade, Alex Wilkins, Chris Stringer, Arthur Caplan and Gretchen Goldman.

What if the deepest structures of mind and cosmos were one and the same? Could the mystery of consciousness be illuminated through the physics of black holes, the archetypes of Jung, or the eternal ideas of Plato?This conversation with Dr. Todd Desmond, philosopher of mind and consciousness, ventures into that threshold. Dr. Desmond's work investigates singularity as both a physical and psychological reality, drawing connections between philosophy, depth psychology, and cosmology. Together we follow the strange symmetry that links psyche and singularity — from Einstein's equations to Jung's archetypes, from Hegel's Absolute Idea to the holographic principle.Along the way, we consider whether the self itself might be understood as a singularity, what this implies for synchronicity and kairos, and how myth, art, and philosophy open new ways of conceiving the real.At the centre of this dialogue lies a question that reverberates through both science and spirit: is the mind a black hole?00:14 – What is a Singularity?03:48 – Black Holes & Physics07:21 – Jung, Pauli & Mirror Symmetry13:29 – Mathematical Forms & Ideas16:01 – Psyche = Singularity?20:09 – Hegel's Absolute Idea24:45 – The Self as Singularity28:20 – Science Fiction & Plexity36:14 – Myth, Cosmology & Science40:06 – Vedanta, Atman & Brahman50:55 – Wheeler's One Electron1:01:04 – Hegel, Jung & Mandala1:07:14 – Jung's Near-Death Experience1:13:42 – Holographic Principle1:20:56 – Black Hole Wars1:27:16 – Synchronicity & Kairos1:34:42 – Art & Metamorphosis1:40:06 – Heaven on Earth

Humanity's relationship with black holes began in 1783 in a small English village, when clergyman John Michell posed a startling question: What if there are objects in space that are so large and heavy that not even light can escape them? Almost 250 years later, in April 2019, scientists presented the first picture of a black hole. Profoundly inspired by that image, physicist Jonas Enander has traveled the world to investigate how our understanding of these elusive celestial objects has evolved since the days of Michell. With the particular goal of discovering our human connection to black holes, Enander visits telescopes and observatories, delves deeply into archives, and interviews over 20 world-leading experts, including several Nobel laureates. With Facing Infinity: Black Holes and Our Place on Earth (The Experiment Press, 2025), he takes us on a spellbinding journey into the universe's greatest mystery, deciphers the most mind-bending science, and answers questions surrounding how black holes work, where they come from, and what role they play in the universe. Along the way Enander discovers how our desire to understand black holes inadvertently paved the way for the invention of Wi-Fi and the calibration of our global navigation satellites, how astronomical discovery became entangled with colonial conflicts, and how our looking outward gave us critical evidence of the impact of climate change. Facing Infinity helps us appreciate and understand as never before these mysterious celestial objects and our surprising connections to them.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we explore the thrilling prospects of observing exploding black holes, an astonishing stellar jet on the outskirts of the Milky Way, and the meticulous preparations for an Earth observation satellite mission.Exploding Black Holes on the HorizonA groundbreaking study suggests that astronomers may soon witness a black hole explosion, an event theorised to occur once every 100,000 years. Researchers now believe there's a 90% chance of observing such an explosion within the next decade, potentially revealing primordial black holes formed shortly after the Big Bang. These explosions could provide a comprehensive catalogue of all subatomic particles, including those yet to be discovered, fundamentally altering our understanding of the universe's origins.Immense Stellar Jet DiscoveredAstronomers have identified a colossal stellar jet erupting from a young star in the Milky Way's outskirts, specifically in the Sharpless 2284 region. This rare phenomenon involves twin jets of hot plasma extending over eight light years, driven by superheated gases falling onto the massive star. Captured by NASA's Webb Space Telescope, this discovery not only sheds light on star formation but also offers insights into the conditions of the early universe.Preparing for Earth ObservationThe European Space Agency is conducting rigorous tests for a future Earth observation satellite mission, including an airborne campaign in the Arctic. Scientists are evaluating a new imaging microwave radiometer designed to monitor sea ice and its evolution. This mission aims to gather vital data on climate change and the Arctic environment, contributing to a better understanding of global phenomena.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesPhysical Review Lettershttps://journals.aps.org/prl/NASAhttps://www.nasa.gov/European Space Agencyhttps://www.esa.int/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Exploding Black Holes on the HorizonImmense Stellar Jet DiscoveredPreparing for Earth Observation
