Wir springen in dieser Folge ins 20. Jahrhundert, aber auch zurück bis in die prähistorische Zeit der ersten Besiedelung des westlichen Pazifiks. Wir sprechen dabei über einen Mann, der in den 1970er Jahren aufzeigte, wie es möglich war, das weitläufige Gebiet des Pazifiks zu besiedeln, und zwar zu einer Zeit, als die uns heute bekannten Seefahrtstechnologien noch Zukunftsmusik waren. Das erwähnte Buch von David Abulafia heißt "The Boundless Sea", das erwähnte Video zur Weltumrundung der Hokule'a findet sich hier: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYzRySRtpfQ Das Episodenbild zeigt einen Teil der Hokule'a aus dem Jahr 2006.

John and Elizabeth talk cultural renewal with Christina Thompson in this rebroadcast of a 2019 Recall this Book conversation. Her Sea People: The Puzzle of Polynesia both relates the history of Polynesia, and explores how histories of Polynesia are constructed. The discussion considers various moments of cultural contact between Polynesian and European thinkers and doers. Those range from the chart Tupaia drew for Captain Cook during the “first contact” era (above) to the moment ijn 1976 when the Hokule'a‘s traveled from Hawaii to Tahiti in a triumphant reconstruction of ancient Polynesian wayfinding. Thompson has fascinating thoughts on how the work of David Lewis, Brian Finney and the Bishop Planetarium served as invaluable background to the navigational achievements of Mau Pialug and Nainoa Thompson. The conversation then turns to Epeli Hau'ofa's influential article, “Our Sea of Islands,” and the conditions that arise to separate islands–water, language, or national boundaries. Can these conditions also serve to draw islands together? The discussion turns to the much-celebrated voyage of the Hokule'a, revivals of Polynesian tattooing practice, hula dancing, and oh yes, Moana. Planetarium at the Bishop Musuem Finally, in Recallable Books, Christina recommends Nancy D. Munn's The Fame of Gawa as a book that takes seriously the theories of value developed within Gawan community; Elizabeth recommends Sam Low's documentary text Hawaiki Rising; and John, thinking archipelagically, recommends Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea novels.

To kick off the new season of the podcast, Alina Utrata and Shikha Srinivas discuss space colonization and the tech billionaires in outer space. Why are Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk obsessed with getting to the moon and Mars? How are climate change and the quest to become an interplanetary species related? Who will unaccountable private corporations in space ultimately harm? Should we be afraid of cascading satellites and colliding space junk? And how can indigenous principles and knowledge-holders lead us in understanding our obligations to earth and space, and caring for our shared celestial commons? Since we talked a lot about indigenous communities on this episode, we want to highlight the work and knowledge of indigenous scholars, activists and communities:Sense of Place Series: Indigenous Perspectives on Earth and SkyAll My Relations: a podcast by three native women, as well as the specific episode about the fight to protect Mauna KeaThe Polynesian Voyaging Society, Hokule'a and more on Polynesian navigation practices.Native Appropriations, a blog by Dr. Adrienne KeeneMore Indigenous Scholars and Scholarly WorkDr Mark RifkinElizabeth ReeseProfessor Linda SmithDr. Sarah DeerNative science : natural laws of interdependenceMore about indigenous communities, colonialism and space:The impact of satellite constellations on space as an ancestral global commonsAnger after Indonesia offers Elon Musk Papuan island for SpaceX launchpadAstronomers May Not Like It but Astronomy and Colonialism Have a Shared HistoryThe legacy of colonialism on public lands created the Mauna Kea conflictOther articles:Mars is a hellhole.New York Times article about the social life of forestsThe myth of the tragedy of the commonsWhat if Space Junk and Climate Change Become the Same Problem?A rough sketch on some advanced carbon capture technologyAstronomers are very frustrated with Elon Musk's satellitesElon Musk and Jeff Bezos's space ideology:Billionaire battles are shaping our future in spaceElon Musk, once again the world's richest person, is selling all his possessions so people know he's serious about colonizing MarsElon Musk's Satellite Internet Project Is Too Risky, Rivals SayElon Musk's War on Regulators:The Tesla and SpaceX chief courts conflict with an alphabet soup of government agencies—and generally gets away with itElon Musk's SpaceX violated its launch license in explosive Starship test, triggering an FAA probeJeff Bezos' Rocket Company Challenges NASA Over SpaceX Moon Lander DealJeff Bezos Lifts Veil on His Rocket Company, Blue OriginNowhere Land by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4148-nowhere-landLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Hosted on Acast.

As a native of Hawaii, Hokule'a Taniguchi wasn't quite ready for all that the Wisconsin winter had to offer...it was intense. Hokule'a, or Hoku for short, didn't own a car and she'd been biking to work in the snow...which was, by all accounts, a miserable experience. Hoku's new friend and co-worker, Haley Bridges, took note of Hoku's transportation situation and Haley would offer her rides whenever possible. But, of course, schedules don't always match up, so there were still many snowy bike rides in Hoku's life. At least that was true until December when a surprise Christmas raffle presented the opportunity for life-changing generosity. Today's quick hit of kindness is a sweet story of teenage besties and a great lesson on how true winners are made. ----- Music for Helpful Humans is provided by the amazing K. Michelle Dubois.

Liz Waid and Bruce Gulland tell about Hawaii’s Hokule’a. This traditional canoe is helping to preserve a culture.

What can we learn about space exploration from Polynesian voyaging, or wayfinding? How does a frontier differ from a horizon? In this episode, Professor Eli Nelson explains the story of the Hokule‘a, a double-hulled voyaging canoe launched in 1975 to understand and recover the navigation techniques by which indigenous people found and settled the Pacific Islands. He touches on the various ways that people, from artists to authors of science fiction, have imagined voyaging canoes in the future, and in space.

In episode 7, I spoke to Kawika Crivello a crew member on the traditional sailing vessel Hokule’a.  Hokule’a is a two-masted double hulled canoe that is meant to be similar to traditional Polynesian voyaging canoes.  It is over 60′ long and has a crew of about a dozen at any one time.  Kawika has crewed on many parts of its current round the world voyage.  Hokule’a is 41 years old and is maintained by the Polynesian Voyaging Society.  Kawika was at anchor in the British Virgin Islands where the met with many locals including billionaire Richard Branson.  They may also visit with an American president in Cuba in a few days who hails from their home state of Hawaii. We talk about traditional Polynesian navigation techniques and how to develop the correct mental attitude to going on a long ocean voyage.
