¿Por qué los humanos siempre miramos hacia el espacio y no hacia el interior de nuestro planeta? Para muchas personas, dentro de la Tierra se guardan secretos como el de una civilización superior con probables vínculos alienígenas, o incluso una diversidad de esferas concéntricas con diferentes habitantes.Muchas de estas teorías surgen de los supuestos diarios de viaje del reputado almirante estadounidense Richard Byrd, el primero en volar sobre el Polo Sur, o los estudios del astrónomo Edmond Halley, a quién le debe su nombre el famoso cometa.
During colonial North America, a bright, icy, small Solar System body passed by Earth and was observed by English astronomer Edmond Halley (1656-1742). Its tail was over 96 million miles long of dust and gas blown out from the coma surrounding its nucleus. Halley's calculations predicted the comet would return in 1758, and it did. The Comet has been observed throughout history, including in North America. Halley noticed that comets appeared in 1531, 1607, and 1682, all about 76 years apart. He used Isaac Newton's law of gravity to calculate the orbits of the comets. He concluded that these comets were actually the same comet returning on a long elliptical orbit around the sun.

Astronomy is just like any other human endeavor. It can stir up controversy, hurt feelings – and feuds. One of its most famous feuds involved some of the giants of science – Isaac Newton, who formulated laws of gravity and motion, and Edmond Halley, the namesake of Comet Halley. Newton and Halley were colleagues of John Flamsteed, Britain’s first astronomer royal and the founder of the Royal Observatory. Flamsteed had compiled a catalog of more than 2,000 stars. It included precise positions of the stars along with other details. He showed the catalog to Halley and Newton. They were impressed, and they wanted to use its findings in their own research. So they encouraged Flamsteed to publish the catalog. But Flamsteed refused. Halley and Newton then went behind his back. With the support of the Royal Society, they published 400 copes of it, in 1712. Flamsteed was furious. He bought up all the copies he could find – and burned them. And he waged a feud against Halley and Newton for the rest of his life. The catalog wasn’t officially published until six years after his death. The first version included new designations for the stars – a number followed by the name of the constellation. One of those designations is 32 Leonis. The star is better known as Regulus – the brightest star of Leo. And it’s especially easy to spot tonight. It’s above the Moon as they climb into good view, around 9 or 9:30.

Hollow Earth – Part One Episode Description: In Part 1 of this two-part deep dive, This Podcast is a Secret explores the wild world of Hollow Earth theory. Is the Earth solid, or is there something more mysterious lurking below us? We'll trace the origins of this bizarre idea, starting with ancient mythology and religious texts before moving into the "scientific" theories of early thinkers like Edmond Halley and John Cleves Symmes Jr. You'll also hear about the strange, larger-than-life characters who dedicated their lives to proving the Earth is hollow — some of them with some pretty laughable results. This episode sets the stage for even wilder claims in Part 2. Episode Highlights: Origins of the Hollow Earth Theory — From ancient myths like the Greek underworld to Tibetan tales of Agartha. Edmond Halley's Scientific Proposal — How a respected astronomer's theory of concentric inner spheres kicked off centuries of speculation. John Cleves Symmes Jr. — The man who popularized the idea of "Symmes Holes" at the poles and tried to launch an expedition to find them. Funny Characters and Wild Stories — Meet the true believers and wild eccentrics who dedicated their lives to proving Hollow Earth is real. Government Secrets? — We introduce the idea of government cover-ups and why some believe there's more to Antarctica than just penguins. Stay Tuned for Part 2! In Part 2, we'll take things up a notch. Giants, dinosaurs, and underground civilizations are all on the table, and we'll explore modern claims, bizarre expeditions, and the wildest theories Hollow Earth has to offer.

On this episode Matt is joined by guest cohost Eddie “the Axe” Jefferson (from The BloodyBits Horror Show) to search for holes at the poles and talk all about the Hollow Earth Theory.The discussion begins with a quick stop in 18th century England to blame infamous man-turned-comet Edmond Halley for speculating that the Earth could be hollow (it's not, by the way) — but like all things, the crazy doesn't really get going until we end up in the United States during the 1800's.It's here that we meet a man who successfully petitions the government for funds to find the so-called “holes at the poles”, but are his motives truly noble or is he just looking to get away from his family?And what of Cyrus Reed Teed? How did he come to believe that we actually live within the hollow Earth with a battery operated sun while the rest of the universe is made of rock? Maybe repeatedly electrocuting himself into an unconscious state had something to do with it…Finally, we can't let the 20th century go unscathed because it's there we learn about Richard Shaver's mystery (spoiler alert: it's pretty dark) and the all you can eat buffet of crazy that is the Cryptoterrestrial Hypothesis.Settle in with a disappointing chocolate Easter bunny to snack on and enjoy this wild episode!Support the Show."Mighty Peculiar Theme" by Doug Wortel Our Linktree: linktr.ee/themightypeculiarOur Spreadshirt Merchhttps://the-mighty-peculiar.myspreadshop.com/
Explore the history and theories surrounding the Hollow Earth concept in this episode. From its origins in ancient mythology to its evolution into modern speculative fiction, this fascinating idea suggests our planet may be more than just a solid sphere. The Hollow Earth theory traces back to ancient cultures, where myths and legends spoke of underground realms inhabited by mysterious creatures and advanced civilizations. The concept gained a foothold in the early modern era with the works of Edmond Halley, the renowned astronomer who proposed in the late 17th century that Earth might consist of a hollow shell with a central sun. His theory suggested that this inner world could be accessed through polar openings. Although Halley's ideas were largely dismissed by his contemporaries, they inspired further exploration. In the 19th century, John Cleves Symmes Jr. expanded on Halley's hypothesis. Symmes fervently believed in the existence of a habitable inner Earth and campaigned for an expedition to find these entrances at the North and South Poles. Though his proposals were never realized, Symmes' theories captured the public imagination and influenced subsequent literature and exploration. Jules Verne's 1864 novel, "Journey to the Center of the Earth," brought the Hollow Earth theory into the realm of popular fiction. Verne's adventure story, featuring a subterranean world teeming with prehistoric life and geological wonders, captivated readers and cemented the theory in popular culture. As the 20th century progressed, Hollow Earth theories evolved, blending with new ideas about science and exploration. Some proponents suggested that advanced civilizations or extraterrestrial beings might reside within the Earth, hidden from the surface world. These ideas found a niche in science fiction and conspiracy theories, further blurring the line between fact and fantasy. The boys also examine contemporary perspectives on the Hollow Earth theory. While modern science firmly supports the solid structure of our planet, the enduring allure of hidden realms beneath our feet continues to inspire curiosity and creative exploration. From movies and video games to pseudoscientific claims, the Hollow Earth theory remains a captivating topic that challenges our understanding of the world. Join the boys as they journey through the fascinating history and enduring allure of the Hollow Earth theory. Discover how ancient myths evolved into scientific hypotheses, inspired adventurous tales, and continue to fuel our imagination today.

Be careful what you say — a single phrase can define a legacy. Consider Frances Baily. He served four terms as president of the Royal Astronomical Society and compiled some of the most important star catalogs in history. But he's best known for five little words: “like a string of beads.” Baily was born 250 years ago today, in England. As a young man, he traveled to the wilds of North America, then joined the London Stock Exchange. He was especially good at the mathematical side of things, compiling guides about annuities and life insurance. He made a fortune, then retired in 1825 to spend all of his time on astronomy. Baily had already helped establish the forerunner of the royal society. He used his skills from his days in business to compile star catalogs — work that required a lot of tedious calculations. One of them was the leading publication of its time. In 1836, Baily watched a solar eclipse from Scotland. Just before the Sun vanished, he noticed little points of light around the edge of the Moon. Edmond Halley had seen the same thing more than a century earlier. Halley even explained those points: they're sunlight shining through gaps between lunar mountains and craters. To his fellow astronomers, Baily described them as “a row of lucid points, like a string of beads.” So today, the points are known as “Baily's beads” — insuring a bit of immortality for an insurance expert-turned-astronomer.

At one point in recent history serious physicists, astronomers, and mathematicians hypothesized about a hollow interior of the earth filled with ancient races of parallelly evolved human tribes and weird mysterious creatures.More than just fiction like in Jules Verne's “A Journey to the Center of the Earth” people like Edmond Halley (of Halley's Comet fame) really believed there might be more lurking underneath the earth's surface than what was currently known.Were the ancients correct about subterranean cities? Did Richard Byrd really discover its entrance in Antarctica? Is this were aliens and UFOs really come from?

The Great North American Eclipse is coming up on Monday. The Moon will briefly cover the Sun. That will turn day to night along a narrow path across Mexico, the United States, and Canada. The timing of the eclipse is known down to the second, and has been for decades. And today, astronomers can predict eclipses far into the future. But making such predictions isn't easy. It requires a detailed knowledge of the Moon's orbit around Earth, Earth's orbit around the Sun, and even the shapes of Earth and the Moon. People tried to predict eclipses for a long time. Just when they first succeeded is unclear. There's little doubt that people have been predicting lunar eclipses for centuries. But lunar eclipses are easier to predict. Earth's shadow is dozens of times bigger than the Moon's, so you don't need to be quite as precise to get it right. There are stories that the Chinese were predicting solar eclipses more than 4,000 years ago, but no confirmation. An eclipse in 585 BC that stopped a war supposedly was predicted by a Greek scientist, but many modern-day scientists doubt that. The first confirmed prediction was made by Edmond Halley, using the new laws of gravity devised by Isaac Newton. He forecast that an eclipse would cross England on May 3rd, 1715. And he was right. So the eclipse is known as Halley's Eclipse — honoring the prediction of an astronomical spectacle. More about eclipses tomorrow. Script by Damond Benningfield
Prepare to have your curiosity piqued as we, Adrian and Jacqueline, navigate the mysterious corridors of the Hollow Earth theory, an idea as old as time itself, yet as contemporary as the latest conspiracy theory. Peel back the layers of human history and delve with us into the catacombs of myth, religion, and science, where each turn reveals a new perspective on our planet's enigmatic structure. Uncover the tales of underworlds from the eerie La Scalle cave murals to the intricate mythologies of ancient Sumer, and humour the idea of a 'donut earth theory'—all while considering the role of governments in either perpetuating or debunking these age-old beliefs.We embark on an adventure that spans the Indus Valley to the North Pole, examining the intricate burial rites that reflect societal hierarchies and the moral persuasions of ancient religions that aimed to shape behavior through promises of paradise or threats of eternal damnation. Discover how natural disasters and social upheavals led civilizations to crumble and reset, giving rise to nomadic lifestyles that would seed the folklore and religions we recognize today. Our episode is a tapestry woven with the threads of human attempts to understand the afterlife, and the allure of discovery that has led adventurers like Edmond Halley and Cyrus Teed to some of history's most captivating—and sometimes outlandish—scientific theories.Finally, dare to venture into the hidden realms of UFO theories and Cold War espionage, where suspicion and intrigue color the narratives of exploration and contact with the unknown. From the Arctic exploits marked by skepticism to the racial biases that tinge modern conspiracy theories, our investigation marries the mysterious allure of ancient beliefs with the critical scrutiny of our contemporary lens. So, turn on your headlamp, and let's explore the caverns of human belief in our planet's deepest secrets—your guides through this subterranean quest for knowledge await.

Am Weihnachtsabend 1758 richtete Johann Georg Palitzsch in Prohlis bei Dresden sein Teleskop an den Himmel. Im Sternbild Fische fiel ihm ein unbekannter nebliger Fleck auf: Es war die von Edmond Halley errechnete Wiederkehr eines berühmten Kometen. Lorenzen, Dirkwww.deutschlandfunk.de, Sternzeit
The most-often-observed of all comets should be ready to head back our way. Calculations of its orbit say it should be farthest from the Sun today — more than three billion miles away. That means it'll start its plunge back toward the Sun. It'll take a while to get here, though — it won't get closest to the Sun until 2061. The first confirmed sighting of Halley's Comet came in 240 B.C. The comet is a ball of ice and rock a few miles across. When it approaches the Sun, it sprouts a long, bright tail. Halley orbits the Sun once every 74 to 79 years. It's easily pushed around by the gravity of Jupiter and Saturn, so no two orbits are the same. Halley was the first comet that was known to periodically return to view. British astronomer Edmond Halley used Isaac Newton's laws of gravity to compare the appearances of several comets over the centuries. He discovered that they were repeat appearances of the same comet. Halley calculated that it would return to view in 1758. When it did, the comet was named in his honor. Comet Halley was last visible in Earth's night sky in 1986. It was a so-so appearance. But some of its visits have been spectacular. In 1910, it caused widespread fear when astronomers reported that Earth would pass through its tail. People bought bogus “comet pills” to protect themselves from its influence. But there was no danger at all — only a beautiful display in the night sky. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Hollow Earth is a concept proposing that the planet Earth is entirely hollow, or contains a substantial interior space. Notably suggested by Edmond Halley in 1692 conjectured that the Earth might consist of a hollow shell about 800 Kilometers thick.Submit your stories: popmediaagency@gmail.com Get 55% off your Babbel subscription at babbel.com/popOur Instagram page: @reddit_explains
The financial revolution in Europe was an outgrowth of the scientific revolution, and the greatest minds of the time were studying, commenting on, and even participating in the emerging world of finance. Then came the 1720 South Sea Bubble and the financial crisis that followed.Thomas Levenson is a Professor of Science Writing at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is also an author, and his latest book is titled Money for Nothing: The Scientists, Fraudsters, and Corrupt Politicians Who Reinvented Money, Panicked a Nation, and Made.Thomas and Greg discuss the circumstances of the South Sea Bubble and how it connected to famous minds like Isaac Newton and Edmond Halley. They relate the financial crisis to other bubbles, like the 2007-2008 financial crisis. Thomas draws out the fascinating parts of what happened with the South Sea Bubble and what lessons can be learned from it and applied to today's financial markets.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Insights on the role of innovation and government purpose in bubbles33:51: The point of the bubble is that at the core of the bubble was a really good idea that actually served the government's purposes. In fact, served the government's purposes so well that one of the reasons you don't get joint stock companies going forward and in particular, you don't allow private companies to have access to the bond markets, the debt market, in the same way that the government has, is because the government wants to make sure it essentially has a monopoly on that form of finance so that it can continue executing its purposes. And you don't see a private bond market emerging, at least in Britain, until the second quarter of the 19th century.You can have truth in mathematics29:02: Mathematics is this sure and certain science. You can have truth in mathematics... The best that physics can be is demonstrated, and there's a difference. And so, if the mathematics work out, then, of course, this is a safe, sound, and perfectly acceptable way to spend your money until it isn't. So there's a rhetoric in the use of mathematical arguments that shouldn't be ignored. It was present in the 1720s bubble and in that era, and it was very much present recently.Humanities teach you to think about the future in ways that are simply useful01:01:24: If you try to train for the present, what you're doing is making sure that the future is going to catch you by surprise. And one of the things that the humanities do is teach you to think about the future in ways that are more flexible, more interesting, and, dare I say it, pragmatically, simply useful.A perspective on continuous evolution and profound shifts13:29: I see events as a continuous flow rather than as sudden, momentary revolutionary breakthroughs. But if ever there was a profoundly changing, rapidly changing sort of thing, you can experience it in your own lifetime.

Halley's Comet visits the earth every seventy-five years. Since the dawn of civilization, humans had believed comets were evil portents. In 1705, Edmond Halley liberated humanity from these primordial superstitions (or so it was thought), proving that Newtonian mechanics rather than the will of the gods brought comets into our celestial neighborhood. Despite this scientific advance, when Halley's Comet returned in 1910 and astronomers announced that our planet would pass through its poisonous tail, newspapers gleefully provoked a global hysteria that unfolded with tragic consequences. In “Comet Madness: How the 1910 Return of Halley's Comet (Almost) Destroyed Civilization,” Richard J. Goodrich examines the 1910 appearance of Halley's Comet and the ensuing frenzy sparked by media manipulation, bogus science, and outright deception. The result is a fascinating and illuminating narrative history that underscores how we behave in the face of potential calamity – then and now. As the comet neared Earth, scientists and journalists alike scrambled to get the story straight as citizens the world over panicked. Popular astronomer Camille Flammarion attempted to allay fears in a newspaper article, but the media ignored his true position that passage would be harmless; weather prophet Irl Hicks, publisher of an annual, pseudo-scientific almanac, announced that the comet would disrupt the world's weather; religious leaders thumbed the Bible's Book of Revelation and wondered if the comet presaged the apocalypse. Newspapers, confident that there was gold in these alternate theories, gave every crackpot a megaphone, increasing circulation and stoking international hysteria. As a result, workmen shelved their tools, farmers refused to plant crops they would never harvest, and formerly reliable people stopped paying their creditors. More opportunistic citizens opened “comet insurance” plans. Others suffered mental breakdowns, and some took their own lives. We will see how humans confront the unknown, how scientists learn about the world we inhabit, and how certain people—from outright hucksters to opportunistic journalists—harness fear to produce a profit.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/3101278/advertisement

ALIENS BUILT OUR MOON - HOLLOW MOON DOCUMENTARY The Hollow Moon hypothesis and the closely related Spaceship Moon hypothesis propose that Earth's Moon is either wholly hollow or otherwise contains a substantial interior space. No scientific evidence exists to support the idea; seismic observations and other data collected since spacecraft began to orbit or land on the Moon indicate that it has a thin crust, extensive mantle and small, dense core, although overall it is much less dense than Earth.The first publication to mention a hollow Moon was H. G. Wells' 1901 novel The First Men in the Moon. In 1970, two Soviet authors published a short piece in the popular press speculating that the Moon might be "the Creation of Alien Intelligence". Since the late 1970s, the hypothesis has been endorsed by conspiracy theorists like Jim Marrs and David Icke.he Hollow Moon hypothesis is the suggestion that the Moon is hollow, usually as a product of an alien civilization.[1][2] It is often called the Spaceship Moon hypothesis[1][2] and often corresponds with beliefs in UFOs or ancient astronauts.[2][3]The suggestion of a hollow moon first appeared in science fiction, when H. G. Wells wrote about a hollow moon in his 1901 book The First Men in the Moon.[1][4] The concept of hollow planets was not new; The first discussion of a Hollow Earth was by scientist Edmond Halley in 1692.[5][6] Wells borrowed from earlier fictional works that described a hollow Earth, such as the 1741 novel Niels Klim's Underground Travels by Ludvig Holberg.[7]In 1920, fringe author Marshall B. Gardner cited Wells's speculation of a Hollow Moon as support of the Hollow Earth theory.[8]Both Hollow Moon and Hollow Earth are now considered to be a fringe theories or conspiracy theories.[9][1][10][11] The concept of the Moon as a spaceship is often mentioned as one of David Icke's beliefs.[10][12][13]Claims and rebuttalsDensityThe fact that the Moon is less dense than the Earth is advanced as support for it to be hollow. The moon's mean density is 3.3 g/cm3, whereas the Earth's is 5.5 g/cm3.[14] One explanation of this discrepancy is that the moon may have been formed by a giant impact which ejected some of the early Earth's upper crust into its orbit.[4][15] The Earth's upper mantle and crust are less dense than its core.[16]The Moon rang like a bellBetween 1969 and 1977, seismometers installed on the Moon by the Apollo missions recorded moonquakes. The Moon was described as "ringing like a bell" during some of those quakes, specifically the shallow ones.[17] This phrase was brought to popular attention in March 1970[1] in an article in Popular Science.[18]On November 20, 1969, Apollo 12 deliberately crashed the Ascent Stage of its Lunar Module onto the Moon's surface; NASA reported that the Moon rang 'like a bell' for almost an hour, leading to arguments that it must be hollow like a bell.[1] Lunar seismology experiments since then have shown that the lunar body has shallow moonquakes that act differently from quakes on Earth, due to differences in texture, type and density of the planetary strata, but there is no evidence of any large empty space inside the body.[17]Vasin-Shcherbakov "spaceship" conjectureSpeculative cutaway model of a Spaceship MoonIn 1970, Michael Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov, of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, advanced a hypothesis that the Moon is a spaceship created by unknown beings.[2] The article was entitled "Is the Moon the Creation of Alien Intelligence?" and was published in Sputnik,[10] the Soviet equivalent of Reader's Digest.[1][19] The Vasin-Shcerbakov hypothesis was reported in the West that same year.[20]Their hypothesis relies heavily on the suggestion that large lunar craters, generally assumed to be formed from meteor impact, are generally too shallow and have flat or even convex bottoms. They hypothesized that small meteors are making a cup-shaped depression in the rocky surface of the moon while the larger meteors are drilling through a rocky layer and hitting an armoured hull underneath.[14]The authors reference earlier speculation by astrophysicist Iosif Shklovsky, who suggested that the Martian moon Phobos was an artificial satellite and hollow; this has since been shown not to be the case. Sceptical author Jason Colavito points out that all of their evidence is circumstantial, and that, in the 1960s, the atheistic Soviet Union promoted the ancient astronaut concept in an attempt to undermine the West's faith in religion.[2]"Perfect" solar eclipsesIn 1965, author Isaac Asimov observed: "What makes a total eclipse so remarkable is the sheer astronomical accident that the Moon fits so snugly over the Sun. The Moon is just large enough to cover the Sun completely (at times) so that a temporary night falls and the stars spring out. [...] The Sun's greater distance makes up for its greater size and the result is that the Moon and the Sun appear to be equal in size. [...] There is no astronomical reason why Moon and Sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidence, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion."[21]Since the 1970s, conspiracy theorists have cited Asimov's observations on solar eclipses as evidence of the Moon's artificiality.[22][23] Mainstream astronomers reject this interpretation. They note that the angular diameters of Sun and Moon vary by several percent over time and do not actually "perfectly" match during eclipses.[24] Nor is Earth the only planet with such a satellite: Saturn's moon Prometheus has roughly the same angular diameter as the Sun when viewed from Saturn.[24]Modernly, some scholars have claimed that "the conditions required for perfect solar eclipses are the same conditions generally acknowledged to be necessary for intelligent life to emerge"; If so, the Moon's size and orbit might be best explained by the weak anthropic principle.[24][25][26]

Since the late 1970s, the hypothesis has been endorsed by conspiracy theorists like Jim Marrs and David Icke.he Hollow Moon hypothesis is the suggestion that the Moon is hollow, usually as a product of an alien civilization.[1][2] It is often called the Spaceship Moon hypothesis[1][2] and often corresponds with beliefs in UFOs or ancient astronauts.[2][3]The suggestion of a hollow moon first appeared in science fiction, when H. G. Wells wrote about a hollow moon in his 1901 book The First Men in the Moon.[1][4] The concept of hollow planets was not new; The first discussion of a Hollow Earth was by scientist Edmond Halley in 1692.[5][6] Wells borrowed from earlier fictional works that described a hollow Earth, such as the 1741 novel Niels Klim's Underground Travels by Ludvig Holberg.[7]In 1920, fringe author Marshall B. Gardner cited Wells's speculation of a Hollow Moon as support of the Hollow Earth theory.[8]Both Hollow Moon and Hollow Earth are now considered to be a fringe theories or conspiracy theories.[9][1][10][11] The concept of the Moon as a spaceship is often mentioned as one of David Icke's beliefs.[10][12][13]Claims and rebuttalsDensityThe fact that the Moon is less dense than the Earth is advanced as support for it to be hollow. The moon's mean density is 3.3 g/cm3, whereas the Earth's is 5.5 g/cm3.[14] One explanation of this discrepancy is that the moon may have been formed by a giant impact which ejected some of the early Earth's upper crust into its orbit.[4][15] The Earth's upper mantle and crust are less dense than its core.[16]The Moon rang like a bellBetween 1969 and 1977, seismometers installed on the Moon by the Apollo missions recorded moonquakes. The Moon was described as "ringing like a bell" during some of those quakes, specifically the shallow ones.[17] This phrase was brought to popular attention in March 1970[1] in an article in Popular Science.[18]On November 20, 1969, Apollo 12 deliberately crashed the Ascent Stage of its Lunar Module onto the Moon's surface; NASA reported that the Moon rang 'like a bell' for almost an hour, leading to arguments that it must be hollow like a bell.[1] Lunar seismology experiments since then have shown that the lunar body has shallow moonquakes that act differently from quakes on Earth, due to differences in texture, type and density of the planetary strata, but there is no evidence of any large empty space inside the body.[17]Vasin-Shcherbakov "spaceship" conjectureSpeculative cutaway model of a Spaceship MoonIn 1970, Michael Vasin and Alexander Shcherbakov, of the Soviet Academy of Sciences, advanced a hypothesis that the Moon is a spaceship created by unknown beings.[2] The article was entitled "Is the Moon the Creation of Alien Intelligence?" and was published in Sputnik,[10] the Soviet equivalent of Reader's Digest.[1][19] The Vasin-Shcerbakov hypothesis was reported in the West that same year.[20]Their hypothesis relies heavily on the suggestion that large lunar craters, generally assumed to be formed from meteor impact, are generally too shallow and have flat or even convex bottoms. They hypothesized that small meteors are making a cup-shaped depression in the rocky surface of the moon while the larger meteors are drilling through a rocky layer and hitting an armoured hull underneath.[14]The authors reference earlier speculation by astrophysicist Iosif Shklovsky, who suggested that the Martian moon Phobos was an artificial satellite and hollow; this has since been shown not to be the case. Sceptical author Jason Colavito points out that all of their evidence is circumstantial, and that, in the 1960s, the atheistic Soviet Union promoted the ancient astronaut concept in an attempt to undermine the West's faith in religion.[2]"Perfect" solar eclipsesIn 1965, author Isaac Asimov observed: "What makes a total eclipse so remarkable is the sheer astronomical accident that the Moon fits so snugly over the Sun. The Moon is just large enough to cover the Sun completely (at times) so that a temporary night falls and the stars spring out. [...] The Sun's greater distance makes up for its greater size and the result is that the Moon and the Sun appear to be equal in size. [...] There is no astronomical reason why Moon and Sun should fit so well. It is the sheerest of coincidence, and only the Earth among all the planets is blessed in this fashion."[21]Since the 1970s, conspiracy theorists have cited Asimov's observations on solar eclipses as evidence of the Moon's artificiality.[22][23] Mainstream astronomers reject this interpretation. They note that the angular diameters of Sun and Moon vary by several percent over time and do not actually "perfectly" match during eclipses.[24] Nor is Earth the only planet with such a satellite: Saturn's moon Prometheus has roughly the same angular diameter as the Sun when viewed from Saturn.[24]Modernly, some scholars have claimed that "the conditions required for perfect solar eclipses are the same conditions generally acknowledged to be necessary for intelligent life to emerge"; If so, the Moon's size and orbit might be best explained by the weak anthropic principle.[24][25][26]

Far from being a modern, internet crackpot idea, hollow earth theory has walked a long and winding path, many centuries old. From the mythological pits of hell, to the pseudo-scientific theories of the enlightenment, right through to modern science fiction, founding philosophies of utopian cults and even tenuous links with the Nazis, the proponents have been many and the theories varied, though whether or not they were ever anything other than crackpot is a different question altogether.

Subscribe to Quotomania on Simplecast or search for Quotomania on your favorite podcast app!Sir Isaac Newton, (born Jan. 4, 1643, Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire, Eng.—died March 31, 1727, London), was an English physicist and mathematician. The son of a yeoman, he was raised by his grandmother. He was educated at Cambridge University (1661–65), where he discovered the work of René Descartes. His experiments passing sunlight through a prism led to the discovery of the heterogeneous, corpuscular nature of white light and laid the foundation of physical optics. He built the first reflecting telescope in 1668 and became a professor of mathematics at Cambridge in 1669. He worked out the fundamentals of calculus, though this work went unpublished for more than 30 years. His most famous publication, Principia Mathematica (1687), grew out of correspondence with Edmond Halley. Describing his works on the laws of motion (see Newton's laws of motion), orbital dynamics, tidal theory, and the theory of universal gravitation, it is regarded as the seminal work of modern science. He was elected president of the Royal Society of London in 1703 and became the first scientist ever to be knighted in 1705. During his career he engaged in heated arguments with several of his colleagues, including Robert Hooke (over authorship of the inverse square relation of gravitation) and G.W. Leibniz (over the authorship of calculus). The battle with Leibniz dominated the last 25 years of his life; it is now well established that Newton developed calculus first, but that Leibniz was the first to publish on the subject. Newton is regarded as one of the greatest scientists of all time.From https://www.britannica.com/summary/Isaac-Newton.

It's easy to see that the Moon moves across the sky. Compare its position to the background of stars from one night to the next, and that motion is obvious. Tonight, for example, the bright star Aldebaran rises to the lower right of the Moon. By tomorrow night, though, the Moon will have moved so much that Aldebaran will rise farther to its upper right. The background stars are sometimes described as “fixed” because they don't move from night to night — or at least not enough to notice. The stars are all in constant motion as they orbit the center of the galaxy, just as the Sun does. But the stars are so far away that the change from night to night — or even century to century — is imperceptible. Aldebaran was the first to reveal that motion. In 1718, astronomer Edmond Halley studied records of Aldebaran's position from more than 2,000 years earlier. He found that the star had moved — by about a quarter of the diameter of the Moon in our sky. Halley then studied the motions of two more stars, which confirmed the effect. That shift is called proper motion. Aldebaran shows a large motion because it's close — just 65 light-years away. So the relative motions of Aldebaran and the Sun combine to produce a large shift in the star's position. Today, Aldebaran marks the eye of Taurus. But thousands of years from now, the star will have moved away from that spot — depriving the bull of his bright orange eye. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

He was announced as the director of this film in 2017 prior to the release of Godzila: King of the Monsters. While the director of that film, Michael Dougherty, did not direct this film, he did help to develop the story and even receives a credit for his work. • Starring Alexander Skarsgard as Dr. Nathan Lind: The eldest son of legendary actor Stellan Skarsgard, Alexander has managed to find himself in compelling yet entertaining films for the past decade beginning with Battleship and The Legend of Tarzan as well as shows like True Blood and The Stand o Rebecca Hall as Dr. Ilene Andrews: She rose to prominence following appearances in films like The Prestige, The Town and Iron Man 3 and really helps to round out the cast o Brian Tyree Henry as Bernie Hayes: Henry is approaching superstar status as he has appeared in films like Child's Play, Widows, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and Joker. He is set to star in the MCU's latest ensemble film The Eternals as he's slated to portray the first gay superhero in that film series • Also Starring: o Shun Oguri as Ren Serizawa o Eiza Gonzalez as Maia Simmons o Julian Dennison as Josh Valentine o Lance Reddick as Guillerman (Most of his scenes ultimately ended up on the cutting room floor) o Demian Bichir as Walter Simmons • Reprising their roles from King of the Monsters o Kyle Chandler as Dr. Mark Russell o Millie Bobby Brown as Madison Russell o Zhang Ziyi was also set to reprise her role but her role was cut out of the film during editing The Creation of the Monster Verse It seems that creating film universes is the newest trend and while it's not advised to come at the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the Monster Verse has done a good job of holding their own in terms of the critical reception and box office returns. The Monster Verse wasn't originally envisioned to become the franchise it eventually became, the reboot of Godzilla directed by Gareth Edwards in 2014 was released to major box office numbers as well as some of the most positive reception for a film that year. During that same year, Legendary Pictures had announced they had acquired the rights to the Mothra, Rodan and King Ghidorah characters as well as the film rights to King Kong. Following the success of Godzilla and the acquisitions of its adversaries, it seemed inevitable that we would eventually see the two Titans clash on screen. Kong did receive a sort of reboot for that franchise in 2017 as Kong: Skull Island was released to similar fanfare that accompanied Godzilla. Godzilla vs Kong was originally announced in October 2015 for a 2020 release which gave Legendary Pictures plenty of time to build their universe with the only other release being Godzilla: King of the Monsters during that time. Legendary also released Pacific Rim: Uprising but this film is not considered to be part of the Monster Verse. In addition to these films, an anime series was announced in January 2021 that would be set on Skull Island and tell stories of shipwrecked characters during their time on the island. The Existence of Hollow Earth While briefly mentioned during previous films in the Monster Verse, Hollow Earth plays a much more prominent role in Godzilla vs Kong as we see that it's how Godzilla was able to navigate the globe quickly and explain the odd climate and creatures that live on Skull Island. The idea of Hollow Earth comes from the year 1692 as Edmond Halley theorized that the Earth is entirely hollow or contains a large space and if the name Halley sounds familiar,
The Hollow Earth is a concept proposing that the planet Earth is entirely hollow or contains a substantial interior space. Notably suggested by Edmond Halley in the late 17th century, the notion was disproved, first tentatively by Pierre Bouguer in 1740, then definitively by Charles Hutton in his Schiehallion experiment around 1774.It was still occasionally defended through the mid-19th century, notably by John Cleves Symmes Jr. and Jeremiah N. Reynolds, but by this time it was part of popular pseudoscience and no longer a scientifically viable hypothesis.
在希腊神话中,远古之时有一个民族生活在极北地区的永久温暖、遍地阳光的地方,那片土地称为“北方乐土”(Hyperborea)。随着这些北极地区远古时期动物和人类活动遗迹的发现,人们开始相信“北方乐土”的真实存在。 19世纪末波士顿大学的第一任校长威廉?沃伦 (William Fairfield Warren,1833-1929)出版了一本书,名叫《在北极发现的天堂》。此书现在总共有11个版本。沃伦分析了与这一天堂相关的大量的口头故事和传说。据他认为,所有消息都来自北极区的一些远古完美的地方。最近,有可靠的报告称许多UFO其实是来自地球北极下面的一个巨大洞穴中。人们长期以来以为墨卡托画错了,因为地表上找不到这块大陆。而我却认为墨卡托北极圈地图中的这块大陆,实际位于地表的背面,也就是地球的内部。而那画有(冰)山的圆形海域正是北极开口的海域。从这里就可进入地球内部的世界。事实上,早已有人这样做了。 最近,一份可靠的报告称到达地球的UFO首先不是来自太空,而是从地球北极下面的一个巨大洞穴中。 在希腊神话和柏拉图时代,人们就猜测地球里面可能存在生命。柏拉图认为地球里面充满地道和洞穴。研究人员埃德蒙-哈雷(Edmond Halley)研究了地球磁场,发现稍有变化,表明地球可能同时有几个磁场。研究人员猜测地球里面有另一个自带磁场的球体。长久以来,行星有空洞的这一想法在科幻小说中普遍存在。甚至有几位科学家进行不同的评价和实验,以证明地球确实有空洞。 70年前,北极地图显示,此三分之一的地域是没有探查过的,这意味着神秘的北极可能有人类生活。不过俄罗斯自然科学院地质学与矿物学博士马克-萨帝可夫( Mark Sadikov)确信,北极没有洞穴能够进入地下区域。北极地区位于北冰洋深海下,底下有山脉和盆地。北极与南极研究院的地理学家玛丽亚-加夫里罗(Maria Gavrilo)也表示,当她考察北极时,没发现北极有洞穴,北极只是一个冰雪覆盖的海洋。许多努力寻找洞穴的人都徒劳无功。 如今,21世纪开创的新技术可以用来仔细研究这一地区。空洞地球理论的专家确定地球有几个磁场。他们还表示,北极光是气体,是从极地薄薄的地壳中泄露出来的。专家表示,北极光是一种极地独特现象,是上层大气的受激原子发出的光,然后集中在极地上空,能让我们观察到。宇航员从太空中看到,整个地球被光亮所包围,像一个光环似的,但地球上的人只能在极地上能看到它。而且,追随者还强调,当到达极地时,指南针绝对会无乱摆动。许多研究人员还表示,温暖的风经常从北极吹来,证明那里一定有巨大洞穴。研究人员表示,当靠近极地时,指南针失常很正常。因为地球磁场在极地最紧,指南针无乱摆动是在努力指向极地。 不过,有关空洞地球的大多数猜测是基于推测而不是科学数据。这就是为何严谨的研究人员不会评论这些理论。但有些研究人员确实相信地表下有石灰岩洞穴。他们认为,如果地球没有洞穴,就会更重一些。对一些人来说,地面上的神秘还不够,他们要持续寻找地下的新世界,没有人知道地下是什么情况,还有许多未解之谜有待解开。

This week we are going full bore into hollow earth theory. Is the Earth's interior filled with massive voids, continents, atmospheres, UFOs and even other civilizations ? First proposed by Edmond Halley in the 1600s and lives on today. Ancient Greek, Hindu, Chinese, Celtic, Germanic and many Native American cultures describe origins of a subterranean past or underworld. We fly into the Symmes Hole and try to uncover the mysteries behind all the stories and legends. (4:43) Dave and your wonderful Preceptors go over some basics about Hollow Earth Theory, originally proposed by Edmond Halley. Fronk and Mike go into the Schiehallion experiment. (6:48) Vertical deflection is described by your trio. Remember friends, we are not physicists. (9:00) The boys list and discuss many ancient cultures that believe in a subterranean world, such as in Celtic, Chinese, Hindu and Germanic folklore. A discussion follows. (14:37) Mike and Dave go into some Native American underworld beliefs. (16:03) Fronk introduces us to Cyrus Teed, a doctor from upstate New York, proposed such a concave Hollow Earth in 1869, calling his scheme "Cellular Cosmogony". as well as Adolf Hitler was influenced by concave Hollow Earth ideas (Concave Theory). (18:58) Dave and Mike dig into some others that proposed the theory; Lyon Sprague De Camp, an American sci-fi writer, Leonhard Eule, a Swiss mathematician, astronomer, and engineer proposed a hollow-Earth idea. More are introduced within the conversation. (22:21) We introduce John Cleves Symmes and his claims of 1,400 mile wide openings at the poles. (24:13) The boys discuss Atlantis and Hollow Earth Theory as well as some other ideas they have during this drilling. (26:57) We fly over some authors from the 1900's that proposed the theory; one being Vladimir Obruchev who also claims of an interior sun. (29:49) George Papashvily wrote in 1940 that giants lived within the Earth in his, "Anything Can Happen" book and your Preceptors mention some other accounts. (37:50) Novelist Lobsang Rampa who believes ancient machinery is underneath the Himalayas of Tibet and Michael Grumley links Bigfoot and other cryptids to underground worlds. (39:05) We discuss UFOs and Hollow Earth Theory. (40:35) Richard Sharpe Shaver, claimed that a superior pre-historic race had built a system of caves in the Earth, known as "Deros", that live there still, using the fantastic machines abandoned by the ancient races to torment those of us living on the surface. (43:06) David Childress states that a tunnel system exists from South America to Central Asia. (44:24) Mike, Dave and Fronk bring up a proposed entrance, Mammoth Cave in Kentucky. (47:09) Dave and the boys go into detail of Admiral Richard Byrd's accounts of flying into one of the Symmes Holes, and making contact with the race that lives inside the Earth. (49:30) We mention that he met someone named, "The Master," who was the leader of the underground civilization and they were unhappy with our atomic bombs. We discuss what could happen if there were cities under atomic bomb detonations. (54:43) Mike cracks open some facts about seismology and how it conflicts with Hollow Earth Theory. Fronk fills us in about how far we've drilled into the Earth. (57:25) The boys discuss the theory of gravity and its argument against a hollow Earth. (58:32) We mention an international banking conspiracy working to cover up Hollow Earth, which we had talked about in our MIB Debriefing. (01:01:22) The Hushmasters deliver their own opinions of the theory.

Edmond Halley Death Anniversary: वो वैज्ञानिक जिसने हेली धूमकेतु के बारे में दुनिया को बताया. हमारा जन्म एक जानवर के रूप में हुआ था, अगर हमारे बीच से नए नए खोज करने वाले बुद्धिजीवी निकल कर सामने ना आते तो शायद हम ये कभी साबित ही ना कर पाते कि हम मानव हैं और हम जानवरों से अलग हैं. ‘हैली धूमकेतु' की खोज इन आविष्कारों में से ही एक महवपूर्ण आविष्कार था. दुनिया की हेली धूमकेतु से पहचान कराने वाले एडमंड हेली ने 1742 में आज ही के दिन 14 जनवरी को आखिरी सांस ली थी। एडमंड हेली का नाम इंग्लैंड के प्रसिद्ध खगोलविदों (एस्ट्रोनॉमर्स) में गिना जाता है। एडमंड हेली का जन्म 8 नवंबर 1656 को इंग्लैंड के शोरडिच में हुआ था। उनके पिता का साबुन का कारोबार था। उन्होंने ऑक्सफोर्ड यूनिवर्सिटी के क्वींस कॉलेज से ग्रेजुएशन किया। बाद में ऑक्सफोर्ड से ही मास्टर्स की डिग्री हासिल की।
The comet that Edmond Halley had calculated to return appeared as in the night sky as predicted on this day in 1758. / On this day in 1831, the Baptist War, also known as the Christmas Rebellion, began in Jamaica. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://news.iheart.com/podcast-advertisers
Si bien hoy entendemos porque ocurren, los Eclipses Solares generaban terror o miedo en muchas civilizaciones. En este episodio les contamos un poco acerca de estas historias y de los primeros intentos en poder predecir eclipses y que terminaron en la creación del mecanismo de Anticithera. Finalmente hablamos sobre algunos descubrimientos que se hicieron durante los eclipses. Por ejemplo les hablamos de Edmond Halley creando el primer mapa de un eclipse o de Francis Baily quién nombro el fenómeno conocido como las perlas de Baily.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/jugodeciencia)
I bet you’ve heard of Flat Earthers. But have you heard of… Hollow Earthers?? Variations of Hollow Earth Theory propose that our planet Earth is either entirely hollow or contains a substantial interior space. Maybe several spaces. Multiple worlds within worlds. Notably suggested by Edmond Halley in the late 17th century, the notion has been disproved time and time again by, basically, the entire scientific community. But that hasn’t stopped people from continuing to believe in it. Today, we’ll take a look at the mythological origins of the Hollow Earth theory, including many religions’ beliefs that there’s some sort of physically reachable underworld. Then we’ll head to the 16th and 17th centuries when some early scientists - just beginning to explore and understand the cosmos - theorized about the possibility of a Hollow Earth. We’ll touch on some works of subterranean fiction that captivated audiences and fueled hollow earth belief, and we’ll get to know several explorers who were determined to journey to the center of the hollow earth. We’ll even meet a man who started a cult based in part on some very interesting hollow earth beliefs. If the earth IS hollow - what’s inside!?! Cryptids? UFOs? Nazis? Do the inner earth inhabitants ever come to the surface and say hello? So many insane possibilities to go over on today’s wackadoodle-packed, science fiction interpreted-as-truth based, snake and mole people edition… of Timesuck. We donated $7200 to Girls in the Know.

Nous allons enfin comprendre ce qui fait tourner l’horloge cosmique... pour finalement détruire le concept-même de temps. Depuis l'intuition d’Aristote jusqu'à Kepler en passant bien évidemment par copernic et Galilée, si le mouvement des corps célestes est bien compris et les règles fonctionnelles, cela ne veut pas dire que l’on sait quel est le phénomène qui est à l’origine de ces mouvements. Aristote disait que les choses lourdes tendent à aller vers le centre de la Terre, à l’époque où ce dernier était encore pensé comme le centre de l’univers Kepler, lui, avait évoqué une forme de magnétisme. Galilée, Newton et les lois d’attraction Depuis Galilée, on sait déjà que deux objets devraient tomber à la même vitesse dans le vide, quelles que soient leurs masses. "Si les corps lourds tombent plus vite que les corps légers, en attachant ensemble un corps léger et un corps lourd, le plus léger des deux ralentira le corps lourd et l’assemblage doit tomber moins vite que le plus lourd des deux corps.Cependant, une fois attachés ensemble, ils forment un nouveau corps plus lourd que le plus lourd des deux.Ce nouveau corps doit donc tomber plus vite que le plus lourd des deux. Ce qui est une contradiction. Par conséquent, tous les corps doivent tomber à la même vitesse." Si cela te parait magique ou compliqué, imagine la chose suivante : un objet a ce qu’on appelle une inertie. On le définit à l’époque comme sa capacité à résister au déplacement. Plus il est lourd, plus il est difficile de changer la direction ou la vitesse de son mouvement. Une boule de pétanque lorsque tu la lâches pour la laisser tomber au sol, va demander plus d’énergie pour accélérer et toucher le sol. A l’inverse, une bille demande moins d’énergie, mais elle est aussi moins soumise à la gravité. C’est une autre façon de comprendre pourquoi la bille et la boule de pétanque mettront le même temps à chuter d’une hauteur donnée. Nous sommes en 1666 soit quelques décennies après Kepler et du vivant de Halley et bien entendu, Newton. Newton est dans le jardin familial dans le Lincolnshire en Angleterre et, contrairement à l’image populaire n’a pas reçu de pomme sur la tête : il imagine simplement que la force qui fait tomber la pomme vers le sol est probablement la même que celle qui retient la Lune sur son orbite. Il appuie alors ses calculs d’une telle hypothèse sur les tables de Kepler ainsi que les travaux sur l’inertie de galilée. Mais aussi, et c’est moins connu, en consultant ses contemporains tels que Robert Hooke. Ce dernier est rarement crédité or, c’est lui qui démontre que la force appliquée est proportionnelle au carré de la distance qui sépare les astres en mouvement, composante essentielle de l’équation. En janvier 1684, Robert Hooke, Christopher Wren et Edmond Halley débattent sur le mouvement des planètes. Les trois hommes conviennent que le Soleil attire les planètes avec une force inversement proportionnelle au carré de leur distance.A deux fois la distance, la force est donc divisée par 4, pour 3 unités elle est divisée par 9, et ainsi de suite… La question qu'ils se posent est celle de l'orbite que suivra une planète soumise à l'influence de cette force ; en s'abritant derrière les lois de Kepler, ils imaginent que ce sera une ellipse, mais ils manquent d'outils pour le démontrer.Hooke annonce qu'il a trouvé la solution, mais refuse de la révéler tant que les deux autres ne s'avouent pas vaincus. Halley et Wren reconnaissent leur échec, mais les mois passent et Hooke ne révèle toujours pas son secret. Alors Halley décide de poser la question à Isaac Newton qui répond aussitôt que ce serait une ellipse, parce qu'il l'a calculé. Halley reçoit un bref manuscrit de neuf pages intitulé “Du mouvement des corps en orbite” où il trouve ce qu'il attendait, et beaucoup plus que cela : une ébauche de la science générale de la dynamique. En réalité, Newton avait mûri au fil des années cette théorie du mouvement des planètes. Ainsi, dès 1665 , il avait commencé à étudier l'attraction du Soleil sur les planètes. Puis il passa à l'étude de la Lune, mais avec les données sur la Terre dont il disposait à l'époque, les calculs ne tombaient pas juste. Lorsque, en 1675, furent publiés les calculs plus exacts des mesures terrestres réalisés par l'astronome français Jean Picard (1620-1682), il put reprendre ses calculs et vérifier que l'hypothèse était juste. Sa vision du mouvement des corps célestes continua d'évoluer et, au milieu de la décennie 1680, il avait généralisé la théorie de l'action à distance à presque tous les phénomènes de la nature. À cette époque, il vivait complètement immergé dans son œuvre. Selon la loi de la gravitation de Newton, la gravitation n'est pas seulement une force exercée par le Soleil sur les planètes, mais tous les objets du cosmos s'attirent mutuellement. La mécanique céleste, qui repose sur les trois lois de Kepler et la loi universelle de la gravitation de Newton, suffit, encore aujourd'hui, à expliquer par le calcul les mouvements des astres dans un univers local, tel que le système solaire ! On sait donc prédire les mouvement et calculer l’influence des astres les uns sur les autres.Cela sera très utile afin de découvrir de nouvelles planètes grâce aux influences qu’elles ont entre elles et qui crée des perturbations dans leurs orbites. Mais cela ne répond pas à la question de ce qui génère cette force qui fait s'attirer les masses entre elles. Il faudra attendre Einstein pour faire une avancée aussi significative. Einstein Pour aller plus loin encore que les lois de la gravitation édictées par Newton, il faudra un esprit capable de remettre en question le tissu même de l’Univers.Remettre en cause l’espace et le temps. Einstein s’appuya donc, comme ses prédécesseurs sur les travaux de.. ses prédécesseurs. Lorsque l’on calcule l’accélération que subit une pomme lors de sa chute, les masses ne rentrent pas en compte (ce qui est logique puisque tous les objets tombent à la même vitesse dans le vide). Mais qu’est-ce qui est à l’origine de cette accélération de la pomme vers la Terre ?Petite démonstration logique, qui sera très utile pour la suite. Reprenons notre pomme qui tombe et imaginons-la dans l’espace, dérivant sans aucune force appliquée dessus. Elle dérive en ligne droite selon la première loi de Newton :« Tout corps persévère dans l'état de repos ou de mouvement uniforme en ligne droite dans lequel il se trouve, à moins que quelque force n'agisse sur lui, et ne le contraigne à changer d'état. » Pour qu'elle change de direction, il faut faire appel à la 2nde loi de Newton :« Les changements qui arrivent dans le mouvement sont proportionnels à la force motrice ; et se font dans la ligne droite dans laquelle cette force a été imprimée. »Cela peut se traduire par le fait que lorsque l’on pousse un objet, il va se diriger dans la direction vers laquelle on l’a poussé, et il va s’y diriger plus ou moins vite selon la force de poussée. Le fait que notre pomme d’exemple ait une masse donnée requiert d’ailleurs plus ou moins de force pour la faire changer de trajectoire selon si sa masse est élevée ou non.C’est la masse inertielle. Attention : la masse c’est ce qui détermine la force avec laquelle les corps s’attirent entre eux.Et cela n’a en théorie rien à voir avec la masse inertielle. Or, puisque les objets tombent à la même vitesse, cela veut dire que la masse et la masse inertielle sont égales entre elles puisqu'elles s’annulent mutuellement lors de l’étude le chute libre. Mais encore une fois pourquoi ? Une simple coïncidence cosmique ? Après tout ça arrive des coïncidences : les éclipses solaires sont si majestueuses simplement parce que par coïncidence, la Lune est 400x plus petite que le soleil mais 400x plus proche et nous paraît ainsi faire la même taille, masquant parfaitement le soleil. Pour Einstein ce n’est pas une coïncidence anodine, il y a probablement une raison à cette correspondance des masses entre elles. Quelque chose qui transformerait complètement notre compréhension de la chute des corps, passant ainsi d’un mystère à une règle simple. C’est le principe d’équivalence.L’équivalence entre la gravité et l’accélération. Pour que tu comprennes comment cela est équivalent, imagine-toi dans un ascenseur, arrêté à un étage.Tu fais chuter deux objets de poids différents, non soumis au frottement de l’air, ils tombent à la même vitesse. Maintenant imagine cet ascenseur dans le vide de l’espace, soumis à aucune gravité, les objets flottent dans l’ascenseur, sans mouvement par rapport aux parois si tu le nes touches pas. Si cet ascenseur spatial se met à accélérer vers le haut, les objets vont alors sembler se déplacer vers le sol.Si il accélère pile à la bonne vitesse, et qu’il gagne 10m/s toutes les secondes, tu ne pourrais pas savoir si tu es dans un ascenseur sur Terre à l’arrêt ou accélérant dans l’espace. Et c’est logique en un sens. Que le contenant bouge autour des objets ou que les objets bougent dans le contenant, c’est physiquement équivalent. Et voilà pourquoi quelle que soit leur masse, ils chutent simultanément. On peut imaginer un objet très léger ou très lourd, si l’équivalent de leur chute est une accélération de l’ascenseur, le sol les atteint en même temps. La gravité et l’accélération sont donc un seul et unique principe physique. On parle désormais d’accélération de la pesanteur. Einstein pousse alors son raisonnement plus loin encore : Il imagine un ascenseur dans le vide, immobile, avec une raie de lumière qui va d’un côté à l’autre. La lumière devrait tracer un trait droit et horizontal.Si la même expérience est faite dans un ascenseur qui accélère vers le haut, alors la lumière devrait atteindre l’autre côté en étant un peu plus basse qu’à son départ. Or, on a vu que l’accélération et la gravité sont équivalentes, donc logiquement, si l’expérience est fait sur Terre, la lumière devrait être soumise aussi à la gravité et se comporter de même. Cela permet de démontrer que la lumière est soumise à la gravité, comme n’importe quel objet. Cela veut dire qu’avec un astre massif, comme le Soleil, il serait possible d’observer cette déformation de la lumière autour de ce dernier. Un peu comme une loupe ou des déformations d’une plaque de verre. C’est ce qu’on appelle une lentille gravitationnelle. Mais pointer un télescope vers le Soleil c’est risquer de se brûler les yeux… ou d’endommager le télescope.Un des correspondant d’Einstein, George Ellery Hale, propose alors d’en faire l’observation durant une éclipse. En 1919, Sir Arthur Eddington va suivre ces conseils et va apporter la preuve de la théorie d’Einstein par l’observation des étoiles aux abords du soleil, qui semblent effectivement s’être déplacées par rapport à leur position réelle. Notamment certaines étoiles qui devraient être cachées par le Soleil semblent être positionnées à ses abords. Cette confirmation fait alors d’Einstein la figure populaire que l’on connaît et le symbole de la science qu’il est toujours aujourd’hui. Mais le principe d’équivalence et la trajectoire de la lumière pose une question fondamentale : Qu’est-ce ce que c’est une ligne droite si ce n’est pas le chemin parcouru par la lumière ? Pour einstein, parler de ligne droite n’a pas vraiment de sens.Selon lui, l’espace, et plus particulièrement l’espace temps, est courbe. Il est déformé par tous les champs gravitationnels auquel il est soumis. Mais si cela semble aller à l’encontre de la physique Newtonienne, qui stipule qu’un corps soumis à aucune force se déplace en ligne droite, Einstein propose une solution qui permet non seulement de ne pas la remettre en cause mais explique au passage l’origine de la gravité. L’idée est que l’adage : “le chemin le plus court est la ligne droite” n’est pas vrai tout le temps. Prenons un exemple : les déplacements sur Terre, et surtout les longues distances.Si tu voyages entre deux points, tu ne fais pas réellement une ligne droite. Éventuellement sur la carte, et encore.Mais pas sur la surface du Globe, dont la surface est courbe, même si c’est la distance la plus courte, ce n’est pas une ligne droite, mais un arc. Einstein dit alors que la trajectoire de la lumière n’est pas réellement déformée par la gravité du soleil, mais qu’en réalité elle se déplace en suivant la trajectoire la plus courte dans l’espace-temps qui lui-même est déformé et donne l’illusion d’une lentille gravitationnelle. Le trajet le plus court remplaçant alors la ligne droite édictée par Newton pour définir le déplacement des objets qui ne sont soumis à aucune force extérieure. Ainsi, les orbites du système solaire ne sont pas un équilibre entre l’inertie de la planète et la gravité du soleil, la première tendant à les faire partir en ligne droite et la seconde les attirant vers le soleil telle une ficelle retenant un poids. Pour Einstein, la Terre se déplace bien de manière inertielle, sans force extérieure, mais dans un espace-temps qui est déformé par la gravité du Soleil. Ainsi, le fait qu’elle forme une orbite est alors aussi logique et inévitable que de revenir au même point lorsque l’on fait le tour de la Terre. Un autre exemple de ce qui pourrait paraître provenir d’une force ou une quelconque action extérieure mais qui n’est dû qu’à une logique géométrique :Imagine deux personnes partant du même point pour un tour du monde dans des directions différentes. Au début la distance entre eux va augmenter puis se réduire à nouveau, jusqu’à ce que leurs trajectoires se croisent, de l’autre côté de la Terre. Quelle que soit l’angle qui sépare leur trajectoire, quelle que soit leur orientation, et il est impossible de faire autrement, s’il partent du même point, ils se rejoindront toujours. Aucune influence extérieure, aucune magie noire, tout n’est que géométrie. Einstein n’a donc pas réellement expliqué la gravité, il l’a remplacée par une déformation de l’espace-temps. Mais étonnamment, les lois de newton sont tellement précises que malgré les travaux d’Einstein, dans la majorité des cas, elles sont encore utilisées, notamment pour aller sur la Lune. Car seuls quelques cas particuliers, ou lors de mesures par des appareil extrêmement précis, peuvent montrer des différences entre la réalité et la physique newtonienne. Un des cas particuliers, sont par exemple les trous noirs où la gravité est si forte que l’espace-temps est tellement déformé qu’il crée une réelle scission entre newton et einstein. Détruire le temps Avec la simple déformation de l’espace lui-même en fonction de la masse, on peut expliquer les orbites. Mais alors pourquoi dire que c’est l’espace-temps qui se déforme ? Nous avons démarré par la mesure du temps telle qu’elle a été créée par l’humanité, nous allons terminer par l’humanité remettant en cause l’aspect universel et immuable du temps qui passe. Le pire est que l’explication est Reprenons l’expérience de pensée de l’ascenseur d’Einstein avec la lumière qui forme un léger arc lorsqu’il y a de l’accélération. Tu t’imagines bien que la trajectoire de la lumière dans ces conditions est un tout petit peu plus longue que la ligne droite. Mais que l’on soit soumis ou non à la gravité, elle va mettre toujours le même temps car dans le cas où c’est l’ascenseur qui se déplace, pour un observateur extérieur, elle se déplace toujours en ligne droite, et l’arc est une forme d’illusion pour le second observateur à l’intérieur de l’ascenseur. Donc, pour l’un, une ligne droite, pour l’autre, un arc. La vitesse de la lumière dans le vide est constante.Elle ne peut pas être plus rapide ou plus lente. Constante. Si la distance est différente et que la vitesse est constante, le temps devrait être différent. En 2h on parcourt plus de distance qu’en 15 min à 50km/h. Jusque là c’est logique. Sauf qu’ici, on a donc deux observateurs qui mesurent deux distances parcourues, à la même vitesse, avec des durées différentes… Imaginez deux personnes qui mesurent le temps d’une voiture autour d’un circuit et le temps qu’il vous donnent n’est pas le même.Vous en déduisez deux théories de problème de mesure du temps :soit il y a erreur de manipulation du chronomètre,soit il y a un problème dans le chronomètre lui-même avec l’un des deux qui est un peu plus lent que l’autre. Sauf que dans le cas de l’ascenseur et le rayon de lumière, la mesure est parfaite et les instrument sont parfaits. Il ne reste plus alors qu’une solution : le temps s’écoule différemment pour l’observateur selon s’il est à l’intérieur ou à l'extérieur de l’ascenseur. Plus on est soumis à une grande vitesse, plus cet effet est notable.Plus l’horloge utilisée pour la mesure est précise, plus cet effet est mesurable. Un des cas où cet effet a été perçu, c’est lors de la mise en service des GPS. Ils tournent autour de la Terre à grande vitesse par rapport aux récepteurs au sol. Il sosnt aussi moins soumis au champs gravitationnel de la Terre car plus loin.Leur horloge est donc légèrement décalée par rapport à ton smartphone. Mais le principe même du GPS c’est de demander à 3 satellites (ou plus) quelle heure il est de manièr très précise et selon le temps indiqué, connaître notre distance par rapport à eux. En connaissant la distance par rapport à 3 points, on peut alors connaître sa localisation. Sans prendre en compte la théorie de la relativité, le décalage serait d’environ 38 microsecondes par jour : 45 microsecondes dues à la gravité terrestre un peu plus faible au fur et à mesure de la distance par rapport à son centre auquel on retranche 7 micro seondes dues à la vitesse de déplacement des satellites… sauf que pour que le GPS soit précis, il est nécessaire d’obtenir des horodatages à la nanoseconde près. Sans prendre en compte la relativité, les GPS seraient donc complètement imprécis donc inutiles au bout de seulement 2 minutes et un décalage de 10km serait observé chaque jour. Ces satellites sont sont conçus pour calculer la dilatation du temps et adapter leur horloge en fonction de cette dernière. Conclusion Je pourrais aller encore plus loin et parler de gravitrons, du boson de higgs, chacun apportant sa pierre à l’édifice de la science astrophysique. Mais à l’heure actuelle il n’y a pas encore de réponse simple et aisément explicables.Aller plus loin serait se diriger vers la physique quantique. Le prochain défi sera d’ailleurs de réconcilier l’infiniment grand et l’infiniment petit qui paraissent être si différents dans leur fonctionnement. Mais on y arrivera un jour, comme on est arrivé à réunir les phénomènes cosmiques à la simple chute d’une pomme sur Terre. Conclusion de l'acte S’il y a une chose qui est particulier à l’humanité, à notre connaissance en tout cas, c’est bien sa volonté de tout savoir, de tout dompter de tout maîtriser. Parfois pour le pire, mais en réalité souvent pour le meilleur. Certains, encore actuellement, tentent de remettre en cause des bases aussi universellement admises que la rotondité de la Terre.C’est très humain, ça ;-) Ne jamais être satisfait d’une réponse toute faite. Le voir pour le croire. Le comprendre pour l’apprendre et l’intégrer. Il est tentant de se moquer de ces personnes qui veulent redémontrer ce qui te parait si évident.Mais tenter de remettre en cause ce qui est érigé au statut de vérité absolue, on l’a vu, c’est parfois aussi ce qui a fait avancer la science.Le tout étant d’accepter de revoir sa copie lorsque l’expérience ne donne pas les résultats attendus. Et là tu vas me dire “mais moi je ne suis pas légitime, je ne suis pas un scientifique, où est-ce que je me situe dans cette passation, cette amélioration continue des connaissances humaines ?” Comme on l’a vu avec ceux qui ont entouré Kepler, faire avancer la science, c’est parfois simplement transmettre à d’autre l’émerveillement d’un domaine qui te passionne et ainsi les lancer sans le savoir dans une voie qui changera peut-être le monde. Que se soit communiquer discrètement un ouvrage de Nicolas Copernic, ou plus actuel, partager avec un autre humain l’émerveillement que te procure un domaine en particulier ou un article sur une découverte scientifique récente. Cela n’est pas obligatoirement en lien le ciel nocturne, cela peut-être l’Histoire (avec un grand H) et par exemple sa période la plus méconnue qu’est le Moyen Age, ou alors l’informatique et son code qui agit tel des sorts sur des éléments de silicium et qui a, e quelques années, transformé nos vies. Et parfois, la connaissance n’est pas scientifique, elle est plus intime, plus humaine. Des histoires avec un petit h, des expériences. Et pourquoi pas simplement partager les questions que tu te poses. Celui qui te donnera la réponse, la donnera aussi à d’autres. Nous sommes dans une période propice à la communication et il n’a jamais été aussi facile de se renseigner ou de transmettre le patrimoine que représentent les connaissances humaines.Mettre en commun nos expériences et célébrer ensemble l’émerveillement que l’on peut ressentir lorsque l’on découvre quelque chose. Je caresse l’espoir que cela nous pousse à être meilleurs sur le long terme : Je vais te faire part de la plus belle image que je connaisse pour représenter la connaissance, individuelle ou à l’échelle de l’humanité. Ce que l’on sait est comme un disque de lumière projeté sur la surface de ce qu’il y a à découvrir. Plus on en sait, plus on prendre de la hauteur avec la lampe de la connaissance. Et plus on prend de la hauteur, plus grand est le disque éclairé par le savoir. Mais ce qui grandit aussi, c’est aussi le pourtour de ce disque, la frontière entre le fait de savoir et celui d’ignorer. C’est un peu comme pour notre place dans l’Univers, dont l’échelle te fais sentir tout petit maintenant que tu le connais un peu mieux : plus tu sais, plus tu est conscient de ce que tu ignores, et plus tu en es conscient, plus tu sauras attendre d’avoir des éléments pour juger. Individuellement, nous ne sommes rien, à l’échelle de notre espèce, toujours pas grand chose, mais nous accomplissons des choses qui dépassent largement notre échelle. On verra à quel point dans une prochaine balade.Et comment l’astronomie seule ne suffit pas à projeter l’humanité dans l’espaceCette conquête, c’est l’avancée de la science dans son entièreté et ses multiples disciplines. Il n’y a rien qui ne vaille pas le coup d’être recherché.Sois curieux, crée, découvre, comprend et transmets. Et ainsi, contribue à créer ce reflet dans les yeux de toute l’humanité.

On this Lockdown Session, Bobby & Ian discuss The Hollow Moon & The Hollow Earth theories.The Hollow Moon concept is similar to the better-known Hollow Earth hypothesis, which was a recurring plot device in pre-spaceflight science fiction. The first discussion of a hollow Earth was by scientist Edmond Halley in 1692, while the first publication to mention a hollow Moon was not until H. G. Wells' 1901 novel The First Men in the Moon.

All right, welcome back. If you're still around in the year 2061, two things will be true. You'll enjoy seeing the next passing of Halley's Comet, and your life insurance company will enjoy having collected four more decades of your life insurance premiums, without a payout. Standing there that day you and your insurance company can be grateful for the work of one man, the exact same man that comet is named for. The English astronomer, mathematician and physicist, Edmond Halley. Why you ask? Well, not only did Halley develop the calculations to predict the comet's periodicity, he is also developed the early mathematical tools for predicting human longevity, known very well to your insurance company as actuarial science. Today's guest, like Halley is also a physicist, a theoretical physicist to be exact. And like Halley he sees no need to limit his research interests to one academic domain. Laurence Jacobs began is career at MIT pursuing some of the broader mysteries of our universe. Today he's pursuing another ambitious project, quantifying all of the measures, signs, risk models, data sets, bio-wearable monitoring outputs, health history, genomics and more into (perhaps) one single accessible number. Something you may have heard called a health score. Something that promises to refine our ability to predict longevity, and even improve it. This was an amazing conversation and not a short one. The potential benefits of developing these tools are huge, but so are the challenges and dizzying complexities. Many of the answers will likely come from surprising and unexpected places. To quote one of our past guests, Dr. Robert Gale, the American physician at Chernobyl, “Progress is often made by those who investigate the boundaries of several areas, instead of having laser-like focus on a single discipline. That’s where many of the answers in science reside.” That's exactly where we find Laurence Jacobs today, in Zurich Switzerland where he continues to develop the main concepts and the risk models that underlie the Dacadoo Health Score and the remote disease monitoring and management system, remsmed / EMMA Care. With that said, let's get started..
Centuries ago, the work of Edmond Halley demonstrated to the world that comets were not evil omens as many superstitious Europeans believed but celestial bodies in outer space. Even so, comets and asteroids could pose a direct threat to all life on Earth. The real question is whether humanity has the tools to meet that threat?

The Magical Mathematician: Sir Isaac Newton and the Principia Mathematica On a frozen January day in 1684 three friends – Christopher Wren, Robert Hooke and Edmond Halley - met at a London coffee house to confront one of the great questions in knowledge: planetary motion. Their conversation and speculations led, in a few months, to Isaac Newton’s chambers at Trinity College in Cambridge and initiated one of the most thrilling episodes in the entire history of science. In this fourth episode of Travels Through Time, Professor Simon Schaffer of the University of Cambridge takes us to three scenes in the year 1684, and to the genesis of that paradigm-shattering book, the Principia Mathematica.

Welcome to what is yet another episode full of fun and laughter from those nut job nerds you all hate to love or love to hate? First up we have the Professor telling us about how Tencent Games is planning to use police databases to restrict access to video games; which angers Buck due to breach of privacy issues and the reality that information will be flowing both ways. Professor is excited to see who is going to be the first criminal located by the police using video games to track him down. Ahhh, China, wanting to be the world’s number 1 in everything is now tackling the obstacle of behaving with extreme stupidity on an international level.This week the DJ brings us a story about the Deadwood tele-movie. Then the discussion delves into the range of movies and does Netflix and other streaming services spell the end of cinemas? Trust me, this is when you want to sit back with a cup of tea and watch the sparks fly. Best news is that apparently most of the original cast is back for this, including Ian McShane. Also some other movies in the works are Braking Bad, a new Super Mario movie (please, please, please don’t be a crappy as the last one) and also Steven Universe. So we will get to enjoy more from Dakota, check in on the crystal meth scene and hope the DJ stops doing weird accents.Buck brings us news of a real life working tractor beam that has been developed in Oz! A team working at the University of Adelaide has made science-fiction a reality for us, although on a reduced scale. But it is a start and now we have lasers and a tractor beam, now we need force fields and shields, please. Buck and the Professor geek out about the possibilities that this tractor beam represents for the future; which in reality is pretty darn sweet, right?Also we hope everyone who attended Supanova Brisabne had as much fun as we did. It was awesome meeting so many fantastic people, check the Facebook page to see some of them, and that is only a tiny sample of how incredible it was. Until next time stay safe, stay nerdy and we hope you enjoy.EPISODE NOTES:Tencent Games’ unique approach to gaming- https://www.engadget.com/2018/11/05/tencent-games-to-verify-ids-for-children/Deadwood TV movie starts shooting- https://www.empireonline.com/movies/news/deadwood-movie-starts-shooting/Tractor beams- http://www.sci-news.com/physics/tractor-beam-atoms-06569.htmlGames currently playingBuck- Mafia - https://store.steampowered.com/app/40990/Mafia/Professor- FAR: Lone Sails - https://store.steampowered.com/app/609320/FAR_Lone_Sails/DJ- Guns of Icarus - https://store.steampowered.com/app/209080/Guns_of_Icarus_Online/Other topics discussedEquifax data breach- https://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-09-08/smiley-credit-check-australians-financial-information-at-risk/8887198My Health Record government website- https://www.myhealthrecord.gov.au/Oldpeoplefacebook reddit page- https://www.reddit.com/r/oldpeoplefacebook/PUBG Lawsuit- https://www.pcgamer.com/pubg-corp-has-filed-a-lawsuit-against-epic-games/Days of Our Lives- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Days_of_Our_LivesBreaking Bad TV movie in the works- https://thenewdaily.com.au/entertainment/movies/2018/11/08/breaking-bad-movie/Fear the Walking Dead- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear_the_Walking_DeadWalking dead TV movies in the works- https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2018/11/rick-grimes-walking-dead-adventures-will-continue-in-movies/A new Super Mario movie- https://variety.com/2018/film/news/super-mario-bros-animated-movie-illumination-1203021006/Steven Universe TV movie- https://www.polygon.com/2018/7/21/17597892/steven-universe-the-movie-trailer-sdcc-2018Netflix vs Hollywood- https://newrepublic.com/article/148102/can-netflix-take-hollywoodPeter Cushing – Star Wars Actor- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_CushingThe Crow – 1994 movie- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crow_(1994_film)Deepfakes- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DeepfakeMore info about Tractor beams- https://journals.aps.org/prapplied/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevApplied.10.044034Boaty McBoatface- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boaty_McBoatfaceFirst object to be teleported from Earth to the Moon- https://www.technologyreview.com/s/608252/first-object-teleported-from-earth-to-orbit/The Jaunt – A Stephen King short story- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_JauntGun of Icarus – Mobula ship- http://gunsoficarusonline.wikia.com/wiki/MobulaFirst voyage of James Cook- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_voyage_of_James_CookRichard Feynman – American theoretical physicist- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_FeynmanMargret Hamilton - American computer scientist, systems engineer, and business owner- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Hamilton_(scientist)Hedy Lamarr - Austrian-born American film actress and inventor.- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedy_LamarrSatan 2 – The Super Nuke- https://metro.co.uk/2018/03/15/russia-set-test-super-nuke-satan-2-missile-capable-wiping-britain-twice-7390285/Melbourne Cup 2018 winner – First British trained horse- https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2018/nov/06/melbourne-cup-won-by-british-horse-and-british-trainer-for-the-first-timeThe Story of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid- https://www.theguardian.com/film/filmblog/2013/jul/11/butch-cassidy-sundance-kid-reel-historyShoutoutsFamous Birthdays6 Nov 1946 – Sally Field, American actress (Forrest Gump, Gidget, Flying Nun), born in Pasadena, California - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Field6 Nov 1948 –Glenn Frey, American rock vocalist (Eagles-Take it Easy), born in Detroit, Michigan - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenn_Frey6 Nov 1988 – Emma Stone, American actress who has been the recipient of such accolades as an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award, and a Golden Globe, she was the highest-paid actress in the world in 2017.

Edmond Halley was heavily involved in the establishment of modern astronomy, whether through his direct observational work or through the support he offered others in his field. Hear a quick overview of the man who's popped up so much throughout the span of this podcast!
Miten kirjailija suhtautuu kutsuun vierailla diktatuurissa? Ja mitä siitä seuraa? Finlandia-palkittu kirjailija Olli Jalonen vieraili 1980-luvulla Pohjois-Koreassa ja on siitä lähtien seurannut maan tapahtumia poikkeuksellisen tarkasti. Hänen uusin romaaninsa Taivaanpallo sijoittuu puolestaan Saint Helenan saarelle, jonne pääsi viime vuoden syksyyn saakka vain laivalla. Merkillinen pieni saari teki lähtemättömän vaikutuksen Jaloseen. Samoin valistusajan tiedemies Edmond Halley, joka 1600-luvun loppupuolella tutki avaruutta sieltä käsin. Kokemuksista syntyi kiehtova romaani, joka vie korkealle avaruuteen ja syvälle ihmismieleen. Maailmankirjallisuutta parhaimmasta päästä.
In our second episode devoted to the life and work of Edmond Halley, we recount his three voyages aboard the Paramour to create a map of magnetic variation and survey the tides and currents of the English Channel. We also cover his predictions on the return of the comet of 1682, now known as Halley's Comet, his discovery of the proper motion of the stars, his translation of the works of Apollonius, and his work as Britain's Astronomer Royale among a host of other accomplishments.
This week we look at the earlier career of astronomer, mathematician and natural philosopher Edmond Halley. We look at the first part of his career but through about 1693 including his trips to St. Helena, Danzig and Paris. We also look at his ideas on measuring the size of the solar system, terrestrial magnetism, ocean salinity and the cause of the Biblical flood.
In the latest episode of The Higherside Chats, Greg Carlwood welcomes hollow earth enthusiast Rick Osmon. Rick has studied Lazer and Electro-Optics Technology, worked for the US Navy and as a defense contractor, authored "Graves of the Golden Bear", is a regular columnist for "Ancient American", and above all a researcher of the strange and unusual alternatives of history, archaeology, cryptozology and more. If knowledge is power, join Greg as he attempts to level up. As we all know, the nefarious powers that be, altar science and history to fit the narrative and paradigm they've carefully crafted brick by brick. With the truth thoroughly obscured, Rick helps tear down the walls surrounding ideas of a Hollow Earth and pre-Columbus Civilization in North America, in order to rebuild a more complete paradigm. 1:50 Join Greg and Rick as the head straight to the core for a chat about the Hollow Earth. As with other similar theories, Rick explains that there is in fact a void in the inner Earth, due to the gravitational field of the Earth, at that point going outward not inward. Using mathematics to support his calculation for this void, Rick clarifies using gravitational wave theory and our accepted belief that mass is the source of gravity. Listen as Rick elaborates on some of the most recent experiments including a dig conducted by Russia approximately 14 km down known as the Kola Borehole. Rick also touches on the theory presented by Dr. Maxlow and found in the work of Neil Adams that eludes to the possibility to a growing planet. 9:00 Greg expands on this theory of a growing Earth as Rick explains the intricacies of the black/white hole pair. Eistein-Rosen bridge helps to better explain the transition of matter and anti-matter through a collider, and the release of newly acquired, highly energetic matter. 14:50 Listen as Rick helps Greg understand the implications associated with bestowing this wealth of gravitational energy knowledge upon the public. With current energy sources being wielded as weapons against the masses, ruining our environment, creating massive global unrest, and depleting the public of their resources with skyrocketing prices, it's no wonder why this information has been buried. 24:00 Greg and Rick discuss the Edmond Halley's theory of the Hollow Earth dating back to the 1690s. Listen as the continue on the road of respected scientist with Hollow Earth hypotheses to the next pit stop with the work of Leonhard Euler. On another stop along the road, Rick details references of the Hollow Earth found throughout works of popular literature from likes of Jules Verne, the Pellucidar series, and Gilgamesh. 31:00 While many questions regarding the size and habitability of the inner Earth void still exist, listen along as they discuss the possible reality of an underground civilization and the stories Rick finds most compelling including Norway's The Smoky God. They also touch on the Macushi, a tribe located near Ecuador and Brazil who possess a tribal memory of being the gate keepers of the gateway to the center of the Earth. Continue as the give a nod the the translations Dean Dominic Delucia and explore the ancient legends of many tribes tracing their origins to the inner Earth. 44:42 Greg inquires with Rick about his time spent in the service and if it was able to offer any significant insights into what if anything the world governments know. 50:00 Because no Holllow Earth discussion is complete without the mention of Admiral Byrd, Greg Carlwood and Rick tackle the topic head on. It is Rick's contention that at least one of the Admiral's expeditions was funded by the Rockefeller machine, casting a dark shadow over what exactly was discovered and who was able to benefit. 57:50 Moving on from the Hollow Earth, Greg and Rick focus their attention on pre-Columbus America as they attempt to reconstruct the history. With Native American folklore alluding to several waves of immigratio...

Atmósferas separan estas conchas, y cada capa tiene sus propios polos magnéticos . Las esferas giran a diferentes velocidades. Halley propuso este esquema con el fin de explicar lecturas de la brújula anómalas . En 1818 , John Cleves Symmes , Jr. sugirió que la Tierra consistía en una cáscara hueca unos 1.300 kilómetros ( 810 millas ) de espesor, con aberturas cerca de 2.300 km ( 1.400 millas) de ancho en ambos polos con 4 capas internas de cada abiertos en los polos . Symmes se convirtió en el más famoso de los primeros defensores de la Tierra Hueca , y en Hamilton , Ohio , incluso construyeron un monumento a él y sus ideas . Despues se comento por doquier el presunto diario secreto del Contra Almirante Richard Byrd. El presunto diario por primera vez disponible a partir de una organización con sede en Missouri rural, que se llamó "La Sociedad de la Tierra completa" en la década de 1970. La cabeza de esta organización era un nativo americano, el capitán Tawani Wakawa Shoush.
Tyson explica como se conoció el origen de los cometas gracias al trabajo de Jan Oort y su hipótesis de la nube de Oort. Continúa relatando la colaboración entre Edmond Halley e Isaac Newton que conduciría a la publicación de Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, la primera obra importante en describir las leyes de la Física en términos matemáticos. Este libro desafió la noción prevalente de que Dios había diseñado los cielos para que se rigieran por su voluntad directa, demostrando que los astros siguen unas leyes gobernadas por la física. Termina explicando como este trabajo influenciaría muchos aspectos de la vida moderna y psobilitaría los vuelos espaciales. Las otras contribuciones de Halley fueron determinar la distancia de la Tierra al Sol, el hallazgo del movimiento propio de las estrella y la predicción de la llegada del cometa que fue bautizado con su nombre, usando las leyes de Newton.

Throughout history there have been a number of different beliefs that the Earth might be hollow.
Transcript: English astronomer Edmond Halley was the first person to show that comets are repeatable astronomical phenomena. Halley was a friend of Newton, the man to persuaded Newton to publish his master work on gravity, The Principia. Halley paid the publication costs himself and personally sent copies of the book to scientists around Europe. Halley made careful observations of comets himself, and he identified four consecutive sightings with one single visitor and predicted the return for the comet that would bare his name. In 1758 it appeared on Christmas day as predicted. Halley's Comet has appeared most recently in 1910 in a spectacular visit when we passed through its tail and less spectacularly in 1986.
Transcript: The key to Newton’s realization of the universal law of gravity was the understanding that gravity is an inverse square law. That is, the force of gravity diminishes with the square of the distance between two objects. Using this understanding, Newton was able to develop a formalism that showed why the planets should move in elliptical orbits with the sun at one focus. In fact, he made such a calculation and lost it on his desk for a period of some months before Edmond Halley, after whom the comet was named, visited him and persuaded him to write it up. Newton’s master work was the Principia, a summation of all his work on gravity published near the time of his death and one of the greatest books in science ever written.
