Astronomy Cast Ep. 799: Heavy Lift Rockets By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live June 22, 2026. The Saturn 5 was a monster, capable of sending humans and a lander to the Moon and bringing them back again. But the number of heavy lift rockets since then has gotten pretty sparse. Now, with tens if not hundreds of thousands of satellites in the works, giant new space telescopes and multi-ton lunar landers in development there are heavy lift solutions to match. So let's talk about them! From yesterday's Saturn V to today's Ariane VI, rockets capable of launching large telescopes or small space stations in a single go are modern marvels. They are also wildly dangerous, and not exactly compatible. Let's look at today's fleet of rockets and just what they're accomplishing.

In this episode of The Healers Cafe, Manon speaks with Dr. Yun Kim and Dr. Jacques MoraMarco discussed their new book, "Walking Your Way to Vitality," which integrates walking, breath work, and mindfulness. They emphasized the importance of mindful walking, which involves coordinating steps with dynamic breathing and using a specific mudra to enhance focus. The book includes QR codes and drone footage to demonstrate techniques.  For the transcript and full story go to: https://www.drmanonbolliger.com/drs-kim-moramarco      Highlights from today's episode include:  Dr. Yun Kim explains mindful walking as a way to "check in" to the body—using breath, movement, and mudra to anchor awareness in the present.  Dr. Jacques MoraMarco talks about 5,000–7,000+ steps and about 30 minutes of walking daily can significantly reduce risk of major diseases and improve longevity. Manon Bolliger states simple rituals (conscious walking, bedtime routines, putting phones away) help the body understand you "mean business" about healing and sleep.   ABOUT DR KIM & DR MORAMARCO  Jacques MoraMarco, a doctor of traditional East Asian medicine, has been a licensed acupuncturist since 1977.  A pioneer in the field of Asian medicine, he took the first acupuncture license examination ever administered in the state of California. He apprenticed with See Han Kim, a renowned teacher of traditional Korean medicine, who was trained monastically. He completed his postgraduate work at Ecole Européene d'Acupuncture in Paris. From 1994 to 2004, he studied Sun Tai Chi with Sun Shurong in Beijing, China, and he is a fourth-generation lineage holder of Sun Tai Chi. He is a co-founder of the International Sun Tai Chi Association, along with Thomas Duterme and Eric Lee. Dr. MoraMarco has served as a clinic supervisor at Being Alive, an organization in Los Angeles that provides free wellness services to people living with HIV/AIDS and at the PTSD Clinic at the VA Greater Los Angeles Health System. He is dean emeritus at the former Emperor's College of Traditional East Asian Medicine. Yun Kim is the founder of Emperor's Wellness, a doctor of traditional East Asian medicine, a fifth-generation lineage holder of Sun Tai Chi, and has practiced mindful meditation for the past twenty years. She has learned from renowned meditation teachers, including Thich Nhat Hanh, Trudy Goodman, and Christiane Wolf. A licensed acupuncturist in the state of California, she completed her doctoral clinical rotation at the PTSD clinic at the VA Greater Los Angeles Health System and maintains an acupuncture practice in Los Angeles.

In August 1924, a group of rebels organized by the anti-Bolshevik Committee for the Independence of Georgia and led by the Georgian Social Democratic Party, rose up against Soviet forces in the mining town of Chiatura. The Bolshevik reaction was swift and harsh. The fear of another "Kronstadt” still haunted the Bolsheviks, especially since their control over Georgia was tenuous. The uprising failed. Thousands were killed. Its ringleaders either fled into exile or were executed by the Georgian Cheka, then led by Levrenti Beria. The uprising was the culmination of Georgian opposition to Bolshevik rule after the fall of the Menshevik-led Republic in 1921. This small but significant story about Georgian resistance and a social-democratic alternative to Bolshevism has remained in obscurity. That is, until Eric Lee came along. Eric is a passionate partisan for Georgia. Not just for the place and its people. But for the promise that early Republic and its Menshevik leaders represented for the history of social democracy. What were the roots of this uprising? What was Bolshevik rule in Georgia? And how does the Social Democratic Republic and the August Uprising fit into today's memory politics in Georgia? The Eurasian Knot spoke to Lee to get a fuller story behind this almost forgotten moment in the history of Georgian resistance to Russian rule.Guest:Eric Lee is an author, journalist and historian. He's the author of several books. The most recent is The August Uprising, 1924: The Georgian Anti-Soviet Revolt and the Birth of Democratic Socialism published by McFarland Publishers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hawaiian Concert Guide Show 703 The Bermuda Triangle Hawaiian Concert Guide Show 703, titled “The Bermuda Triangle”, is structured as a three-point journey through contemporary Hawaiian music, traditional mele, and the stylized mid-century exotica genre. The title reflects this triangular movement—authentic Hawaiian expression, modern interpretation, and the globalized “tiki-era” imagination of island sound. Rather than presenting these as competing styles, this episode places them in dialogue, allowing listeners to hear both contrast and continuity across eras and intentions. The first portion of the show is anchored in contemporary Hawaiian music that remains deeply connected to language, land, and cultural identity. Artists like Ei Nei, Eric Lee, and Kaleo Phillips demonstrate how Hawaiian music continues to evolve while maintaining strong ties to mele traditions, storytelling, and regional pride. The midpoint exotica segment introduces a historical divergence, highlighting how Hawaiian and Pacific imagery was interpreted for global audiences in the mid-20th century. The show ultimately resolves this contrast by returning to the foundational sound of Ho‘okena, whose vocal harmonies and closing oli reconnect the listener with Hawaiian cultural roots. A notable production detail in this episode is the inclusion of material from Eric Lee's album The Islands Are Calling, which features collaborative songwriting contributions, including respected Hawaiian musician and producer Moon Kauakahi. Known for his work with Nā Leo Pilimehana and his influence as a songwriter, arranger, and producer, Moon Kauakahi's involvement adds an additional layer of musical credibility and craftsmanship to the album's compositions. Track-by-Track Reference “Kauikeōlani,” performed by Ei Nei from the album Ei Nei, Look At Us (track 1 of 14, duration 2:18, categorized under Worldwide/Hawaiian contemporary), opens the episode with a composed and reverent tone. Ei Nei is a trio known for its refined vocal harmonies and contemporary production style, often blending Hawaiian language with modern melodic sensibilities. This track functions as a ceremonial introduction, with phrasing and pacing that evoke the structure of a mele inoa, honoring historical and cultural legacy. “Aia I Ka Maui (Ka Maui),” also by Ei Nei from Ei Nei, Look At Us (track 2 of 14, duration 3:15, Worldwide/Hawaiian contemporary), continues with a place-based composition centered on Maui. The song reflects the Hawaiian tradition of mele ʻāina, where land is not simply described but honored as a living entity tied to identity and ancestry. Ei Nei's arrangement balances accessibility with cultural authenticity, making the piece both engaging and meaningful. “The Islands Are Calling,” performed by Eric Lee from the album The Islands Are Calling (track 1 of 10, duration 4:17, Hawaiian genre), introduces a broader melodic structure that leans into contemporary island music while maintaining Hawaiian thematic elements. The song reflects a sense of invitation and connection, often interpreted as a call back to Hawai‘i for those who have left or feel spiritually tied to the islands. The album itself includes collaborative songwriting contributions, with Moon Kauakahi credited as a co-writer on select tracks, reinforcing the project's strong ties to established Hawaiian music traditions. “Hanohano Kilauea Ku I Ka La‘i,” also by Eric Lee from The Islands Are Calling (track 2 of 10, duration 4:02, Hawaiian genre), is a tribute to Kīlauea. The use of the word “hanohano” places the song within the category of praise compositions, aligning with traditional mele that honor significant natural and cultural landmarks. The piece reflects both the physical presence of the volcano and its deeper cultural associations, including its connection to Pele, the Hawaiian deity of fire and volcanoes. “Ka Nani a‘o Ka‘u,” performed by Kaleo Phillips from the album E Mama (track 2 of 13, duration 3:55, Hawaiian genre), highlights the Ka‘ū district of Hawai‘i Island. Kaleo Phillips is recognized for his smooth vocal delivery and emotionally grounded songwriting. This track emphasizes regional pride and the beauty of place, continuing the episode's strong thematic focus on land and identity. “Hilina‘i Mau,” also by Kaleo Phillips from E Mama (track 3 of 13, duration 3:49, Hawaiian genre), provides a reflective and emotionally centered moment in the program. The phrase suggests ongoing trust or reliance, and the song's tone supports this interpretation through its gentle pacing and expressive phrasing. It serves as a transition point before the stylistic shift into exotica. The “Exotica Segment Intro,” credited to pik00 (duration 4:10, categorized as Promo), marks a deliberate transition in the episode. This segment acknowledges a different chapter in the global perception of Hawaiian and Pacific music, one shaped more by imagination and stylization than by cultural authenticity. The intro prepares listeners for this contrast. “Jungle Madness,” performed by :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0} from the album Hypnotique (track 1 of 11, duration 3:35, Exotica genre), is a defining example of the exotica style. Martin Denny is widely regarded as a pioneer of the genre, which emerged in the 1950s and featured layered percussion, environmental sound effects, and an atmospheric approach to composition. While inspired by Pacific imagery, exotica music represents a Western interpretation rather than an authentic Hawaiian tradition. “Wipe Out,” performed by :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1} from the album Hapa Haole with a Twist (track 9, duration 1:04, Exotica genre), offers a brief and energetic surf-style interlude. Les Waikikings, a Belgian group, became known for instrumental surf interpretations with a tropical aesthetic. This track connects the exotica segment with surf rock influences, further illustrating how Hawaiian imagery spread globally in musical form. “Mahukona,” performed by Ho‘okena from the album Ho‘okena 5 (track 14 of 14, duration 4:39, Hawaiian genre), re-centers the episode in authentic Hawaiian music. Ho‘okena is known for its mastery of vocal harmony, including the use of traditional falsetto techniques. The song references Mahukona, a historic harbor area on Hawai‘i Island, continuing the theme of place-based storytelling. “Mele O Nā Kai ‘Ewalu (Oli),” also by Ho‘okena from the album Nā Kai ‘Ewalu (track 1 of 13, duration 1:00, Hawaiian genre), concludes the episode with a chant. As an oli, the performance is unaccompanied and rooted in Hawaiian oral tradition. The title references the “eight seas,” evoking themes of navigation, connection, and heritage. Ending the show with an oli provides a strong cultural resolution, bringing the listener back to the foundational elements of Hawaiian identity. Mahalo for joining us for Hawaiian Concert Guide Show 703, “The Bermuda Triangle.” This episode demonstrates how Hawaiian music exists across multiple dimensions—traditional, contemporary, and interpreted—while always maintaining a core connection to land, language, and culture.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 791: Chang'e Sample Return By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Apr 20, 2026. Last week we talked about samples from other worlds delivered to Earth by meteorites. But sometimes you've gotta do the job yourself. Visit the far off place and bring the samples home. And today we're gonna talk about China's Chang'e sample return program. How they've delivered rocks from different parts of the Moon, and how this sets the stage for their upcoming human lunar missions. The Chinese space program is step by step testing the technologies necessary for humanity to return to the surface of the Moon. From orbiting comms satellites, to landing sample return missions, the Chang`e missions are exploring new places in new ways. In today's episode, we discuss the Chang`e 6 sample return.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 790: Meteorites From Other Worlds By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live April 17, 2026. Even though humanity has returned samples from a fraction of the worlds in the solar system, the cosmos has delivered many more without us having to lift a finger. Meteorites. We have meteorites from the Moon, Vesta and even Mars! What have we learned about these rocks from other worlds? Space missions to other worlds cost millions to billions of dollars, and if we want to know exactly where space rock samples come from, we need to spend the big bucks for sample return. But, if it's good enough to know "this rock came from somewhere on that world," space offers an amazing delivery system in the form of meteorites.

Our guest is Eric Lee, a cougar depredation specialist in western Oregon. When a mountain lion killed his wife's favorite goat, Eric realized he could do something about it. Next, he found himself helping neighbors and now this quiet unassuming man has found himself helping livestock owners in his area deal with problem lions. Cougar thru the doggy door. Cats that thrill kill. That spree kill. That hunt in groups. Some of what you will hear here is startling.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 787: Evolved Stars (They're not dead yet!) By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Mar 16, 2026. Main sequence stars spend most of their time being… normal. Fusing hydrogen into helium in their cores. Producing radiation. But as their stockpiles of hydrogen run out they switch to other fuels, starting to climb the ladder of the periodic table of elements. And this is when things get weird. As we get more and more observations of the cosmos, our understanding gets more detailed. In this episode we look at all the ways a star can die and the updates that we've learned in the past 20 years of Astronomy Cast.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 785: Magnetars By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live March 6, 2026. Magnetars are a special type of neutron star with physics that defy comprehension. Magnetic fields so powerful they could strip you apart at an atomic level. But, where do they come from? So many mysteries to uncover about magnetars. Back in December 2004, a gamma rays washed out cameras and zotted satellites as a star on the other side of the Milky Way shifted around its magnetic fields. Magnetars are violent that way.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 784: Pulsar-Powered Science By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Feb 16, 2026. Pulsars are dead stars and fascinating in their own right, but astronomers can use their predictable rotation for exploring the cosmos in a series of amazing ways. We can detect gravitational waves, navigate the solar system, test general relativity and find exoplanets. Pulsars are the time keepers of the sky, with their precise ticking allowing researchers to track gravitational waves, find exotic planets, and study weird relativistic effects. Come learn about how pulsars can be used to explore our universe. Image credit: NASA/CXC/ASU/J. Hester et al., HST/ASU/J. Hester et al.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 783: Cataclysmic Variable Stars By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Feb 16, 2026. There are many types of variable stars. Today we're gonna talk about cataclysmic variable stars, which are the result of a white dwarf stealing material from a companion star. And this whole process makes supervillain Pamela happy. Gravity is the weakest force, but on the scales of stars, it is capable of great violence. In this episode, we look at the wild physics of cataclysmic variables: binary star systems where one star is a predatory compact stellar remnant, while the other is a victimized normal star.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 782: Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Feb 13, 2026. Modern astronomy has found that the Universe can surprise us. Here's one which astronomers have called Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients. They're kinda like supernovas, they're kind of like gamma ray bursts, but they're not like them. So what are they? In the distant Universe, are blue light flashes, bright and hard to understand. These objects, uncreatively named "Luminous Fast Blue Optical Transients," are just the kind of puzzle astronomers love. In this episode, we look at their discovery and our current understanding of what they might be.

Eric Lee is an alleged predator that was caught in a Blount County, Alabama investigation.  At the time of the sting, Lee had been living in or around Centerpoint, Alabama with his mother. He worked as a mechanic at a car dealership.  Lee had been communicating with a decoy posing as the aunt to a fifteen-year-old girl. He asked the decoy for a picture of her face or body. The aunt told Lee that her niece's age was fifteen, to which Lee stated, "That's cool. Fifteen's my fantasy." The decoy asked Lee if he would have sex with the girl, with Lee replying, "Yeah, I'm gonna fuck her good. I've got some good dick." He also asked if he could "eat some ass." He offered to bring marijuana to the house to give to the minor girl. Lee agreed to the proposition of having sex with the minor girl for $200. Lee arrived to the sting house and was greeted by the two decoys at the door. After they exited, Lee said to himself, "Oh, I forgot the condoms in the car." Chris then emerged to confront him.

Astronomy Cast Ep. 781: Awakening Black Holes By Fraser Cain & Dr. Pamela Gay Streamed live on Feb 2, 2026. One long standing mystery in astronomy were the quasars. Incomprehensible energy blasting out of a point-like source, billions of light years away. We now know these are actively feeding supermassive black holes, which can turn off and on in a startlingly short period of time. Today: When black holes awaken! Our Universe is filled with sleeping monsters. And sometimes, whether we want it or not, they wake up hungry. In this episode, we take a look at the science behind how and why black holes of all sizes can go from nothing to the triggers of massive high-energy power release.
