We talk to a returning guest and friend of the show, science fiction author Edward M. Lerner, about his latest book 'On The Shoals of Space-Time', on the topic of First Contact.  Ed is a fount of scientific insight and information on space science and the possibilities for extraterrestrial encounters, having written 25 books – 5 of them with the legendary author Larry Niven, of Ringworld fame – many of which explore themes First Contact with extraterrestrials, as well as future scientific advancement that would be necessary for interstellar travel.  In this interview we discuss a number of his books, we talk about fusion and anti-matter, electromagnetic bottles, the Albercurrie drive for warping space-time to get around the speed limit of light, and neutrino communications.  We also discuss the Prime Directive, the Drake equation, the Fermi Paradox, scientific revolutions and evolutions, stealth technologies, and alien monitoring stations keeping an eye on Earth in the Kuiper belt and the Oort cloud.  That's quite a lot!  So if you like to dig deeper into the real science and big ideas in your science fiction, this conversation is a veritable treasury of insights and learning that will help you get more out of the science fiction you read and watch.Edward M.

In this episode we return to the theme of Planetary Protection, continuing the conversation we started in episodes 19 and 20 where we discussed the return of samples from Asteroid Bennu to Earth in NASA's recent OSIRIS Rex mission.  There we talked about what measures were taken to protect the biosphere of Earth from any unforeseen biological agents that such a sample may harbor, hearkening back to the plot of Michael Crichton's famous novel 'The Andromeda Strain'.  In this episode we continue down this road with science fiction author Edward M. Lerner, this time contemplating the difficulties and dangers inherent in a return of samples from Mars to Earth, in his new novel 'Life and Death on Mars'.  We discuss the difference between samples from asteroids and samples from Mars, and contemplate the possible existence of life on Mars along with the various possible consequences of its interaction with life on Earth. We also talk about the international collaborative efforts in the space station and the return to the Moon, how the Moon can act as a stepping stone in the race to Mars, what resources can form the basis of an economy and permanent presence on Mars, using a Mars base to exploit the mineral wealth of the asteroid belt, and imagine what may become the next space race after Mars.Buzzsprout (podcast host):https://thescienceinthefiction.buzzsprout.comEmail: thescienceinthefiction@gmail.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/743522660965257/Twitter:https://twitter.com/MartyK5463

Edward joins the show to discuss his novel, his experience in the Space Shuttle Simulator, and what would really happen if some of our fears came to light. ****Before taking the plunge in 2004 into full-time writing, technologist turned author Edward M. Lerner spent thirty years in high tech at every level from engineer to senior vice president. Many novels later, he's glad (and still just slightly surprised) that he leaped.He worked at such techie havens as Bell Labs, Hughes Aircraft, and Northrop Grumman—and at a long-gone start-up of which you've likely never heard. He delivered high-tech products and systems to government agencies (including NASA, the FBI, and the Defense Department) and commercial customers as varied as AT&T and McDonald's. Along the way, he visited a satellite factory, flew the space shuttle training simulator, wandered about the space station trainer, and watched a space shuttle launch. Sooner or later, all that experience shows up in his fiction.Lerner's novels run the gamut from technothrillers like Energized (solar-power satellites), Small Miracles (medical nanotech), and Fools' Experiments (AI) to traditional science fiction, like Dark Secret and his InterstellarNet series, to (with NY Times bestselling author Larry Niven) the space epic Fleet of Worlds series. Ed's fiction has been nominated for Hugo, Prometheus, and Locus awards, and won the inaugural Canopus Award.Ed's short fiction has appeared in major science fiction magazines, anthologies, and collections. His short story “Grandpa?” became the award-winning short film “The Grandfather Paradox.”He also writes nonfiction, most notably Trope-ing the Light Fantastic: The Science Behind the Fiction. He also teaches the occasional writing class, blogs regularly on the state of science and SF. He has spoken at, among venues, the Library of Congress and the US Naval Academy. His fiction has been translated into ten languages.The varied career(s) didn't just happen: Ed's education is almost as eclectic, with degrees in physics, computer science, and business.Lerner is a member of the Science-fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), and  SIGMA (not an acronym, and sometimes known as “The Science Fiction Think Tank”).Lerner was born in Chicago and has lived in Illinois, New Jersey, and New York. He now resides in Virginia.

Niven at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California, 2007 Laurence van Cott Niven (/ˈnɪvən/; born April 30, 1938) is an American science fiction writer.[2] His 1970 novel Ringworld won the Hugo, Locus, Ditmar, and Nebula awards. With Jerry Pournelle he wrote The Mote in God's Eye (1974) and Lucifer's Hammer (1977). The Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America gave him the 2015 Damon Knight Memorial Grand Master Award.[3] His work is primarily hard science fiction, using big science concepts and theoretical physics. It also often includes elements of detective fiction and adventure stories. His fantasy includes the series The Magic Goes Away, works of rational fantasy dealing with magic as a non-renewable resource. Biography Niven was born in Los Angeles.[2] He is a great-grandson of Edward L. Doheny, an oil tycoon who drilled the first successful well in the Los Angeles City Oil Field in 1892, and also was subsequently implicated in the Teapot Dome scandal.[4] Niven briefly attended the California Institute of Technology[5] and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in mathematics (with a minor in psychology) from Washburn University in Topeka, Kansas in 1962. He also completed a year of graduate work in mathematics at the University of California, Los Angeles. On September 6, 1969, he married Marilyn Wisowaty, a science fiction and Regency literature fan. Work Niven is the author of numerous science fiction short stories and novels, beginning with his 1964 story "The Coldest Place". In this story, the coldest place concerned is the dark side of Mercury, which at the time the story was written was thought to be tidally locked with the Sun (it was found to rotate in a 2:3 resonance after Niven received payment for the story, but before it was published).[6] Algis Budrys said in 1968 that Niven becoming a top writer despite the New Wave was evidence that "trends are for second-raters".[7] In addition to the Nebula Award in 1970[8] and the Hugo and Locus awards in 1971[9] for Ringworld, Niven won the Hugo Award for Best Short Story for "Neutron Star" in 1967.[5] He won the same award in 1972, for "Inconstant Moon", and in 1975 for "The Hole Man". In 1976, he won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette for "The Borderland of Sol". Niven frequently collaborated with Jerry Pournelle; they wrote nine novels together, including The Mote in God's Eye, Lucifer's Hammer and Footfall. Niven at Stanford University in 2006 Niven has written scripts for two science fiction television series: the original Land of the Lost series and Star Trek: The Animated Series, for which he adapted his early story "The Soft Weapon." For The Outer Limits, his story "Inconstant Moon" was adapted into an episode of the same name by Brad Wright. Niven has also written for the DC Comics character Green Lantern, including in his stories hard science fiction concepts such as universal entropy and the redshift effect. Several of his stories predicted the black market in transplant organs ("organlegging"). Many of Niven's stories—sometimes called the Tales of Known Space[10]—take place in his Known Space universe, in which humanity shares the several habitable star systems nearest to the Sun with over a dozen alien species, including the aggressive feline Kzinti and the very intelligent but cowardly Pierson's Puppeteers, which are frequently central characters. The Ringworld series is part of the Tales of Known Space, and Niven has shared the setting with other writers since a 1988 anthology, The Man-Kzin Wars (Baen Books, jointly edited with Jerry Pournelle and Dean Ing).[10] There have been several volumes of short stories and novellas. Niven has also written a logical fantasy series The Magic Goes Away, which utilizes an exhaustible resource called mana to power a rule-based "technological" magic. The Draco Tavern series of short stories take place in a more light-hearted science fiction universe, and are told from the point of view of the proprietor of an omni-species bar. The whimsical Svetz series consists of a collection of short stories, The Flight of the Horse, and a novel, Rainbow Mars, which involve a nominal time machine sent back to retrieve long-extinct animals, but which travels, in fact, into alternative realities and brings back mythical creatures such as a roc and a unicorn. Much of his writing since the 1970s has been in collaboration, particularly with Jerry Pournelle and Steven Barnes, but also Brenda Cooper and Edward M. Lerner. One of Niven's best known humorous works is "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex", in which he uses real-world physics to underline the difficulties of Superman and a human woman (Lois Lane or Lana Lang) mating.[11]

A physicist and computer engineer, Edward M. Lerner toiled in the vineyards of high tech for thirty years, as everything from engineer to senior vice president. Then, suitably intoxicated, he began writing full time. His novels range from near-future technothrillers, like Small Miracles and Energized, to futuristic mysteries, like The Company Man, to such traditional SF-adventure fare as Dark Secret, Deja Doomed, and his InterstellarNet series. Collaborating with Larry Niven, Lerner also wrote the space-opera epic Fleet of Worlds series. But Ed doesn't limit himself to novels. His writings on science and technology centerpiece Frontiers of Space, Time, and Thought: Essays and Stories on The Big Questions. In Trope-ing the Light Fantastic, he examines the science *behind* the fiction. Finally, much of Ed's short fiction has been collected in Creative Destruction, Countdown to Armageddon / A Stranger in Paradise, Muses & Musings, and -- most recently -- in The Sherlock Chronicles & The Paradise Quartet. Lerner's 2015 novel, InterstellarNet: Enigma, won the inaugural Canopus Award for interstellar-themed fiction. His writing has also been nominated for Hugo, Locus, and Prometheus awards.

On the Moon's far side, shielded from Earth's radio cacophony, Americans are building a radio-astronomy observatory. Russians sift the dust of a lunar “sea” for helium-3 to run future fusion reactors. Commercial robots, remotely operated from Earth, roam the Moon's near side in a hunt for mineral wealth. Why chase distant asteroids for precious metals? Onetime asteroids must lie close beneath the much-bombarded lunar surface.Then a prospecting robot encounters a desiccated, spacesuited figure. An alien figure ….Americans from the lunar observatory investigate. Near the original find, underground, they discover an alien installation. Lunar Russians, realizing that the Americans are up to something clandestine, send their own small team. Each group distrusts the other … even before the fatal “accidents” begin. By the time anyone suspects what ancient evil they have awakened, it may be too late—For everyone on Earth, too.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Edward loves writing. His genre of writing is science fiction and techno thrillers. I asked Edward what is his "Why". He told me, "he can't sleep. He wakes up in the middle of the night with several topics in his head. He learned how to write in the dark and his wife is very happy of that lol. He sleeps with paper and pen next to his bedside." That tells me that Edward is so happy about his transition. ALL ABOUT EDWARD: Edward was a physicist and computer scientist. After thirty years in industry, working at every level from individual technical contributor to senior vice president, he is now writes full-time. Edward writes science fiction and techno-thrillers, now and again throwing in a straight science or technology article. Edward is an Author of the InterstellarNet series / Coauthor of the Fleet of Worlds series with Larry Niven. Young visions of becoming literally a rocket scientist morphed into a degree in physics. Mid-degree, he had an epiphany: he was good at physics but intuitive with computers. Physics was a terrific foundation for his newly chosen field—and later on, of course, for writing SF. Edward computer career began at Bell Labs, where his assignments dealt with telephone switching systems and design for ultra-reliability. Edward moved to Honeywell, entering engineering management and an evening MBA program. The work at Honeywell involved automated building controls, real-time systems for which my Bell Labs training was tremendously valuable. Suddenly, there was more time than he had in years for recreational reading. With more to read, he found much to criticize. His supportive wife, Ruth, eventually suggested that if he thought he could do better, he should. And so, circuitously, Edward began his writing career … Significant traces of his Bell Labs and Honeywell experience appear in my first novel, but what's most interesting in hindsight is how Probe foreshadowed his later career. By the time Probe appeared in print, he had changed employers, and his state of residence, twice. Edward was then newly arrived at Hughes Aircraft, one of a team chasing a large NASA contract. (They won.) While NASA personnel and settings play key roles in Probe, it was completed before his first NASA encounter. Edward never met any rocket scientists, but he did spend several fascinating years developing parts of the Earth Observing System. Edward got to know an astronaut. He even flew the shuttle training simulator twice, which was great fun. The downside of NASA contracting was its impact on his writing. Edward squeezed some time for some short stories, two of which appeared in Analog. As his engineering management career took off, there was little room for hobbies. On the plus side, the next several year in which few words of fiction were committed to electron produced a stockpile of source material for future stories. Edward eventually left Hughes to explore the alien worlds of start-ups and the Internet bubble. 1999 found Edward restless in his day job. A sabbatical spent writing recharged his batteries and produced a flurry of story sales (to Analog and Artemis). In 2001, it was back to engineering management. It turns out that the writing bug is persistent. After two more years in engineering and project management more telecom and government contracting work, Edward took the plunge into writing full time. For the next several years about half his writing was collaborative, from which the visible result is the five-novel Fleet of World series with Larry Niven. Larry is also done nonfiction, putting a straight-science slant on the research that underpins both completed & upcoming fiction.  Many of his nonfiction articles and essays are collected, updated, and expanded in Frontiers of Space, Time, and Thought: Essays and Stories on the Big Questions. The most recently (2018), Trope-ing the Light Fantastic: The Science Behind. You can go to the website at https://edwardmlerner.com/ or social media handles Edward M. Lerner

Today's show is with one of the leading global writers of hard science fiction and indeed cyberfiction. He is the author of over 18 titles and what we hope is fascinating for followers of this show is the science he puts behind the fiction. As opposed to fantasy writing, science fiction is based on possible realities and that fact is often lost on many of us. A physicist and computer scientist, he toiled in the vineyards of high tech for thirty years, as everything from engineer to senior vice president. Once suitably intoxicated, he began writing full time. We welcome Edward M. Lerner. The focus of this show is themes from his book: ‘Trope-ing the Light Fantastic: The Science Behind the Fiction'. We discuss: Augmented Humanity Cyborgs Robots Genetic Therapy Brain Machine Interfaces Autonomous Weapons AI, Artificial Intelligence Super intelligence Neural Networks Dystopia The future skills of humanity What we do when everything automated More about Edward here: https://www.edwardmlerner.com/
