This week, we welcome Ethan Siegel on the podcast! Our guest, author of "Infinite Cosmos," discusses his STEM origin story from a curious child with a telescope to a renowned astrophysicist and science communicator. He recounts his educational path, including his PhD from the University of Florida and postdoctoral work at the University of Arizona. Siegel emphasizes the importance of curiosity and overcoming crises in career choices. He highlights the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) as a revolutionary tool for understanding the universe's early stages. Siegel's book, "Infinite Cosmos: Visions from the James Webb Space Telescope," explores JWST's discoveries, including the earliest galaxies and the formation of supermassive black holes. He calls for continued investment in space telescopes to uncover more cosmic mysteries. For all you Big Bang Theory fans (the theory, not the show) Ethan showcases just how JWST & Hubble have helped us understand how the universe looks and now, thanks to Webb, how the early universe grew up! From black holes, to dark matter, and the early universe - there's plenty here for the astrophysics junkies & the space newbies.

*Unfortunately we encountered audio problems at the time this episode was recorded* Join Hugh Ross and Jeff Zweerink as they discuss new discoveries taking place at the frontiers of science that have theological and philosophical implications, including the reality of God's existence. Xenotransplant Success Worldwide, millions of people need organ transplants and many die while waiting. It is impossible to scale up human organ donation rates to meet the demand. However, recent success in xenotransplantation may solve the shortfall. Surgical transplants of pig hearts, livers, and kidneys all show promise of (at least temporary) function and no signs of organ rejection. Xenotransplantation provides yet more evidence that God designed the higher animals to enhance human health and well-being.

According to calculations based on scientists' best understanding of the universe, the size of this ring exceeds the largest size structure that could possibly form, and it joins a class of about 10 structures that are “too big.” While some people might take this find as evidence that our current understanding of the universe (size, age, composition, etc.) is wrong, the discovery highlights how well we comprehend the universe and provides insight that will direct us into a deeper understanding. It also affirms the biblical prediction that we live in an orderly, reliable, and understandable creation. References: PODCAST LINKS: An Impossibly Huge Ring of Galaxies Might Lead Us to New Physics.

As the host of the Starts with a Bang podcast, Ethan Siegel ponders faraway topics from outer space, but also the stakes they have for us here on Earth. Who are we really, and what is our place in the universe? In demonstrating how these questions matter, Dr. Siegel has also encountered some difficult interview subjects, and some irrational ways of thinking. How can we hear someone out, even if their ideas sound strange, without getting pulled in to an ideological black hole? Rabbi Mitelman and Dr. Siegel discuss the wonders of the universe, as well as how to share and talk about them with other people. Ethan Siegel, Ph.D., is an astrophysicist, author, and science communicator. He has won numerous awards for science writing since 2008 for his blog, Starts With A Bang, including the award for best science blog by the Institute of Physics. He is the author of Treknology: The Science of Star Trek from Tricorders to Warp Drive, and Beyond the Galaxy: How humanity looked beyond our Milky Way and discovered the entire Universe.
DemystifySci is a show of opposites, and in the court of Science it is vital that we present both sides of any debate. To balance our tendency to favor arguments that undermine consensus, we have a conversation with Dr. Ethan Siegel, blogger, professor, podcaster, and high priest of the big bang and inflation cosmology. This is a primer of the foundations of thought in mainstream physics, and so constitutes mandatory listening for those interested in finding a new way forward because, despite the ways in which we disagree, Siegel is right about one thing. New theories have an enormous burden of proof, and it's our responsibility to meet that bar.

There's been speculation in the popular press, primarily by Eric Lerner ( @LPPFusion ), claiming the Big Bang never happened. Supposedly, new data from the James Webb Space Telescope presents a 'crisis' for an old universe that emerged from a hot dense plasma, in favor of a much more ancient cosmology -- a plasma cosmology. Prof. Lewis and I will present flaws in Eric Lerner's article, loosely based on his 30-year-old book of nearly the same name, "The Big Bang Never Happened", and evidence that contradicts his claims about the so-called crisis. Slides will be posted to my mailing list briankeating.com/list Yet the underpinnings of the Big Bang are more solid than ever, thanks in large part to the fossil evidence astrophysicists have found of primordial nucleosynthesis, also called BBN. Join us for a deep dive into the physics of the formation of the elements, the redshift distance relation, and the Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation -- perhaps the most indisputable evidence for the hot Big Bang there is. We will provide insight into how I review such claims and how you can too even if you're not a professional cosmologist: judge for yourself.

It makes the Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Albums list at #416.Physicist, author, blogger and NYC-native Ethan Siegel brings some hip hop credibility to the podcast this episode, helping counteract the rural(ish) roots of Eamon, Sonya and Nathan. Known as "hip hop's first legitimate band," did the music, lyrics and vocals hold up under the toughest of scrutiny? Is this truly one of the greatest albums of all time? Well, you'll have to listen to find out.During the episode we discuss Ethan's upcoming book - The Encyclopaedia Cosmologica - which you can pre-order here.Leave comments on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook at @rrmusicpod or visit our website at recordroulettepodcast.com.Runtime: 56 minutesMusic by lemonmusicstudio from Pixabay.
Ethan Siegel joins Scott to discuss the science behind the temperature of thermonuclear explosions. Scott is putting together a new book that argues for the abolition of nuclear weapons called Hotter Than The Sun. He wanted to talk with an expert who can actually explain how the bombs are able to reach temperatures that far exceed the center of the Sun. Siegel wrote an article on that exact topic a few years ago, so he's the perfect person to answer that question. At the end, they also talk about some of the things to avoid if you find yourself in the aftermath of a nuclear explosion. Discussed on the show: “Ask Ethan: How Can A Nuclear Bomb Be Hotter Than The Center Of Our Sun?” (Forbes) Ethan Siegel is an astrophysicist, author, professor and science communicator. He's won numerous awards for science writing since he began blogging in 2008. His blog Starts With A Bang is now housed at Forbes. Follow him on Twitter @StartsWithABang.

We once again welcome (5 years later) Dr. Ethan Siegel, theoretical astrophysicist, author, speaker, and smartest guy ever, about next month's launch of the James Webb telescope, how it works, why it's such an advancement from Hubble, what we hope to find, and how Todd gets to believe he is the literal center of the universe. Enjoy!
This week's guest is comologist and science communicator Ethan Siegel. Ethan helps me understand some basic physics as we dive into: How the universe came to be (even before the Big Bang) The difference between the early, the late early, and the late universe (now) Will the universe end? Agreement, observation, and the scientific method Why we can't see all the stars that are out there, and why that's a good thing. Cosmic inflation, Dark energy, and what you should be afraid of Why we should care about cosmology The role of kindness in teaching ... and much more! Ethan's website is startswithabang.com It's full of links to his articles, books, podcast episodes, and recordings of his talks. There's even a page with pictures of Ethan in a bizarre array of costumes. No joke! Also, as referred to in the episode, here's a link to the Victor Wooten talk we love so much: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zvjW9arAZ0

In this first episode of Science Station 2 host Hayley Stoddart and guest Dr. Ethan Siegel discuss the social progress that is seen in Star Trek, then compare that to where societies of Earth are currently and what will potentially need to happen for us to achieve the level of global equality in Star Trek. How do we start the process of achieving true equality in the United States, then translate that on a global scale? What policy changes need to happen? Who decides what needs to change first, and how do we make it happen? These are questions that Hayley and Dr. Siegel ponder in this first episode of Science Station 2.
Dré, Lauren, and Aidan ask, What's string theory? Why care? How might non-experts start to understand? How's physics and math connected? Is math discovered or invented? and more.

Star Trek introduced us to the amazing technologies of a fictional future such as warp drive, replicators, and photon torpedoes, but it turns out that some of those technologies aren't so fictional anymore. In this episode hear theoretical physicist and author Ethan Siegel, PhD, talk about some of the real inventions that were inspired by Star Trek (iPads, anyone?), and some technologies like tractor beams and holodecks that might be closer to reality than you realize. Ethan's talk is based on his book Treknology: The Science of Star Trek from Tricorders to Warp Drive and you can read more of his writing at his blog Starts With A Bang. Also, help support his work by checking out Ethan's Patreon page. Here's the Hubble telescope image of 10,000 galaxies that Ethan mentions about 6:45. ******** Want to come to an event?
