What if your home could cut electricity bills by 60%, survive weeks without the grid, and earn money while you sleep?Lunar Energy is building an integrated home energy system combining solar, batteries, load controls, and AI-powered software. Its GridShare platform already manages 650+ MW across 150,000 homes, including third-party hardware.Founder and CEO Kunal Girotra previously led Tesla Energy from 2015 to 2020, helping bring Powerwall into residential energy storage. He has since raised more than $230 million to build Lunar.Here's what we discussed:How to turn homes into distributed power plants — Why combining batteries, solar, controllable loads, and virtual power plants can lower bills, provide backup power, and create new grid revenue for homeowners.Why software matters more than battery hardware — How Lunar uses device-agnostic software to manage its own products and third-party equipment across 150,000 homes and 650+ MW of capacity.How AI can cut electricity costs by another 10–15% — Why localized, real-time optimization against changing import and export prices outperforms basic solar-plus-storage self-consumption.Why leasing is becoming the default for home batteries — How zero-down financing, tax-credit changes, and immediate monthly savings have pushed roughly 80% of Lunar customers toward leases.How to raise $230M for a climate hardware company — Why proving product-market fit, securing Sunrun as both an investor and distribution partner, and demonstrating resilience under adversity mattered more than ambitious promises.--1️⃣ Join our confidential CEO community.Private CEO group for VC/PE-backed climate tech founders navigating capital, strategy, and scale.

The Moon pulls the tides of the ocean, but the question that won't let us go is simpler and stranger: what is it pulling in us? Melanie Reinhart joins me for a wide, grounded, moonlit ramble through lunar consciousness, astrology, and the body. We start with the moon as a constant companion for earthlings, a reliable rhythm of waxing and waning that can steady us when life feels politically, personally, and collectively turbulent.From there, we drop into somatic territory. We talk craniosacral therapy and the experience of “tides” in the system, from surface noise to the deeper mid tide and the long tide where time feels different. That becomes a living metaphor for the lunar path: not a heroic push to achieve, but a deepening that restores life force. We also bring in the Orphic Hymn to the Moon as an invocation practice and explore why reverence matters, not as an antique idea but as a way to relate to powers we still live inside.We get practical about moon phases too: the dark of the moon as a window for retreat, the full moon as an emotional amplifier, and how lunar timing can support better choices in work, conflict, learning, and creativity. We move into dreams as night-world digestion, why forcing interpretations can block the nourishment, and how light pollution mirrors a cultural forgetting of darkness, sleep, and imagination. If you care about the lunar cycle, dreamwork, depth psychology, the Jungian unconscious, or the roots of astrology in the night sky, this conversation is for you.*the above blurb was auto-generated by Buzzsprout's AI.Cover Artwork is The Fairy of the moon by Hermann Kaulbach (b&w) circa 1891 with a background extension from Canva.The Orphic Hymns including the one in this episode dedicated to the moon, and the invocation with Musaeus. It's the Thomas Taylor translation from 1792. Melanie's personal favourite.Find out more about Melanie and her work here. She has many great books including, famously, Chiron and the Healing Journey.Melanie reads from:Dane Rudhyar, The Lunation Cycle: A Key to the Understanding of Personality, from the section “The Pattern of the Lunation Cycle.”Rudolf Steiner, “In Pure Rays of Light” The verse appears in Esoteric Instructions (GA 264), with related commentary in an esoteric lesson of 5 December 1907 (GA 266/I).We discuss:Iain McGilchrist's book: The Master and his Emissary and associate right brain activity with the moon and left brain with Mercury.Jung, obviously, comes up a lot. I paraphrase this quotation from him.We also talk about the Tides in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy. If you'd like to know more about that the work of Franklyn Sills (may he rest in peace) is a good starting point.Clearing up the confusion of the 'far side' vs the 'dark side' of the moon we go to NASA...But always appreciative to Pink Floyd for creating such confusion but also such a cracking album.Melanie also mentions the Dark Sky Movement. Such important work. Have a look at darksky.org.We also acknowledge that "mentor" is not etymologically related to Mene or taurus. What we're engaging in during that section is a nice bit of folk etymology.Join the Newsletter!Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

Experience Talk Cosmos on Sunday, JULY 12 at 1:00 PM PDT! Host Sue ‘Rose' Minahan shares insights interweaving the “July 2026 Moon Manifestation.” Sue explores various lunar mythologies alongside the upcoming 21°59′ Cancer New Moon and the 6°30′ Aquarius Full Moon.The Cancer-Aquarius Lunation Theme Jupiter, the planet of expansion, entered Leo between the June 21st Summer Solstice and the Cancer New Moon. The theme of these two July moon phases jumps circuits into renewing beliefs—for the individual, for communities, and for how we manifest our Jupiterian belief structures within society. In addition, between July's New and Full Moon, the lunar nodes will shift, transiting to the Aquarius North Node and Leo South Node.Bridge into New Consciousness Mid-month on July 14, the 21°59' Cancer New Moon reflects upon past stories to strategize adjustments for creating a healthier foundation. A retrograde Mercury activates deep communication, connecting the Sun's will and the Moon's emotional patterns.On July 19, Jupiter and the Moon will join an ongoing mini grand trine between Pluto, Uranus, and Neptune. The energetic forces of all five planets tightly intersect at 4°, creating several astrological patterns that kickstart the regeneration of humanity's consciousness. Remember, what appears as chaotic is simply an undefined process of restructuring. On July 29, the 6°30′ Aquarius Full Moon holds this 4° patterned energy while Jupiter conjuncts the Sun at 6° Leo.Celestial Timing:14 JUL 2026: 21°59′ Cancer New Moon at 5:44 AM EDT29 JUL 2026: 6°30′ Aquarius Full Moon at 10:36 AM EDTTHE ESSENCE OF THE LUMINARIES: UNDERSTANDING THE CURRENT NEW AND FULL MOON FOR GREATER AWARENESS & CONNECTION TO LIFE.The second week of the month captures the essence of the New & Full Moon.

With the success of Artemis II, NASA is preparing for humanity's return to the Moon through the ambitious Artemis Project. In this lecture, Professor Neil Farber explores the future Artemis missions, the spacecraft and technologies designed to support them, and the challenges NASA faces in sending astronauts back to the lunar surface. Building on the legacy of the Apollo program, Artemis represents a new era of exploration focused not only on reaching the Moon, but on establishing a sustainable long-term presence and preparing for future missions to Mars. Professor Farber examines why returning to the Moon today presents more difficulties than during the Apollo era, including modern engineering demands, funding realities, mission complexity, astronaut safety, and the logistical challenges of deep space travel. The lecture also highlights how NASA's goals have evolved since Apollo and why the Moon remains central to the future of human space exploration.

The Planets Series begins with our closest and most intimate neighbour: the moon. The moon represents the dreaming mind, our instinctive life and our guidance system to the emotional waves of our turbulent lives. Each of these elements of the moon is explored in this episode with the help of three mythic figures:Selene as a personification of the moon riding her white cow through the sky, visiting her lover Endymion (one who finds himself within) in his cave as he dreams the eternal dream.Artemis as the wild, instinctual life that stays true to her nature and close to her essence. and Hekate, the triple goddess, who has her home in the underworld. It's Hekate who arrives in our most desperate times of need to accompany us in the realm of grief and loss. The second half of the podcast begins with the image of Grimm's Hansel staring longingly back at his home as he's taken into the woods by his step-mother to be abandoned. He drops white stones on the ground that are then lit up by the moonlight to guide him back home. From there we visit Mnemosyne's cellular memory, the thread-weavers and the way Ithaka pulls at Odysseus.The Gorgons, including Medusa, will help us relate to the moments we feel unrelatable. There are many links between Medusa, the ocean and the moon. Including the Orphics calling the moon's face the Gorgoneion.And finally Rilke with some soul-soothing words in his poem 'You Come and Go'.Cover Art: Endymion : Effet de lune, ou Le Sommeil d'Endymion (The Sleep of Endymion), Anne-Louis Girodet de Roussy-Trioson, 1791.I leant heavily on Gods of the Greeks, Carl Kerenyi, 1951Very thankful to Brian Clark, Melanie Reinhart, Travis Elliot and Milena Kadziela for their help in the creation of this podcast.For my German audience... The poem at the end from Rilke:Du kommst und gehstDu kommst und gehst. Die Türen fallen viel sanfter zu, fast ohne Wehn. Du bist der Leiseste von allen, die durch die leisen Häuser gehn.Man kann sich so an dich gewöhnen, daß man nicht aus dem Buche schaut, wenn seine Bilder sich verschönen, von deinem Schatten überblaut; weil dich die Dinge immer tönen nur einmal leis und einmal laut.Oft wenn ich dich in Sinnen sehe, verteilt sich deine Allgestalt; du gehst wie lauter lichte Rehe, und ich bin dunkel und bin Wald.Du bist ein Rad, an dem ich stehe: von deinen vielen dunklen Achsen wird immer wieder eine schwer und dreht sich näher zu mir her, und meine willigen Werke wachsen von Wiederkehr zu Wiederkehr. Join the Newsletter!Podcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

Imagine this: You're an astronaut, you've landed on the moon, and as you're taking one small step for mankind, you kick up a bunch of lunar dirt. Now, tiny, jagged particles of dust are on your spacesuit, sticking to the spacecraft, getting in the machinery, and into your lungs. These are the kinds of problems planetary geologist Erica Jawin is trying to solve as NASA prepares for future moon bases. And what will you eat as an astronaut on the moon? Turns out that lunar dirt, or regolith, can be used to grow potatoes and other crops, just like Matt Damon did in “The Martian.” Flora talks to space biologist David Handy to learn more.  Guests: Dr. Erica Jawin is a planetary geologist at the National Air and Space Museum and a participating scientist on NASA's Artemis science team. Dr. David Handy is a space biologist studying how to grow potatoes in moon dirt at Oregon State University. Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

David Susko, a Martian geologist working for a NASA contractor is our guest. He builds and operates cameras for space missions, including a visible-light camera called MACIE (Mars Color Imager) that photographs the Martian surface at various scales and resolutions.   Key points discussed: The lunar base vision The goal isn't just a brief visit — it's continuous human presence on the Moon, similar to the ISS model. Early stays would be short (weeks/months), gradually extending to years, then indefinitely. The ISS has had people aboard continuously since the late 1990s; the same model is the target for the Moon. Water ice — the most critical resource Water on the Moon's south pole (locked in permanently shadowed craters as ice from ancient comet impacts) is the single most important resource to find and extract. It's needed for drinking, growing food, and — crucially — splitting into hydrogen and oxygen to make rocket fuel. The "rocket equation" problem means every kilogram of water you don't have to launch from Earth saves enormous amounts of fuel. Lunar geology primer The Moon's geology is relatively simple: dark regions (maria) are ancient lava flows billions of years old; bright regions are impact ejecta/highlands. The entire surface has been bombarded by meteorites for 4.5 billion years. The south pole's permanently shadowed craters act as "cold traps" — any water ice that lands there stays frozen indefinitely. The Moon as a "gas station" If water ice can be harvested and split into hydrogen/oxygen propellant on the Moon, it becomes a refueling depot. Rockets could launch from Earth with minimal fuel, refuel in lunar orbit, and push much further into the solar system. This fundamentally changes the economics of deep space exploration. Other lunar resources Beyond water: oxygen and iron for construction, silicon for fiber optics (which actually forms with better crystalline structure in low gravity), and — further out — helium-3, a fusion fuel isotope that doesn't accumulate on Earth's surface (our atmosphere and magnetic field deflect it) but is embedded in the lunar regolith by the solar wind. Mining helium-3 is decades away, but could be transformative for nuclear energy. International and commercial collaboration The Artemis Accords now have ~67 signatory nations. This is a fundamentally different approach from Apollo — a global cooperative framework. Commercial companies (through programs like Commercial Lunar Payload Services) are being incentivized to build and operate lunar landers, rovers, and infrastructure independently. The road to Mars Once a lunar base is established (~2030s), Mars becomes the next target. Key challenges unique to Mars: the distance (millions of miles vs. ~240K for the Moon), longer travel times (~6–9 months each way), more severe radiation exposure, and a much larger gravity well making launch from the surface extremely difficult. Getting off Mars — the hardest problem Returning humans from the Martian surface is the central engineering challenge. One serious proposal: pre-send an unmanned spacecraft that uses the Martian atmosphere (mostly CO₂) to synthesize and stockpile rocket propellant before any humans arrive, so the return vehicle is fully fueled and waiting. One-way trips have been discussed but the guest doesn't favor them. Mars timeline Best-case: humans on Mars in the 2040s, only after the lunar base has proven out long-duration deep-space habitation. The guest stresses we must master living away from Earth before committing to a ~1.5-year round trip with no rescue option.

SpaceTime Series 29 Episode 75 The Moon's oldest and largest impact crater A new study suggests the Moon's oldest and largest impact crater – the two and a half thousand kilometre wide South Pole-Aitken basin -- could have excavated material so deep it included parts of the lunar mantle. New clues to how the red planet Mars evolved Scientists have discovered the mineral garnet in a Martian meteorite which may reveal how the red planet evolved billions of years ago. Mission to boost Swift space telescope's orbit NASA is about to launch a new mission designed to extend the life of a half billion dollar spacecraft by boosting it into a higher orbit.

What if the next Cold War isn't fought with tanks, missiles, or aircraft carriers—but with quantum computers, artificial intelligence, digital currencies, and resources mined from the Moon?In this explosive episode of On the Record, Christian Briggs examines the growing technological rivalry between the United States and China and explores a disturbing question: What happens if Beijing wins the race for the technologies that will define the twenty-first century? The discussion begins with a stark reality. Throughout history, the nations that mastered the defining technologies of their era ultimately dominated the global order. Britain rode the Industrial Revolution. America led the age of aviation, computing, and nuclear power. Today, a new battle is emerging around artificial intelligence, advanced semiconductors, quantum computing, critical minerals, and digital infrastructure. The episode explores how quantum computing could eventually shatter modern encryption, allowing future governments to unlock vast archives of communications once thought permanently secure. Intelligence agencies already operate under a chilling principle known as "harvest now, decrypt later," collecting encrypted data today in anticipation of tomorrow's quantum breakthroughs. From there, the conversation moves into the resource war unfolding beneath the headlines. Gold, silver, rare earth elements, lithium, gallium, and other strategic materials are becoming the ammunition of the digital age. China has spent decades building dominant positions across critical supply chains while many Western nations outsourced production in pursuit of efficiency. The most surprising section focuses on China's lunar ambitions. The program examines Helium-3, a rare isotope believed to exist in abundance on the Moon and potentially valuable for advanced scientific and technological applications. Whether or not Helium-3 ultimately fulfills its promise, China's investments in lunar infrastructure, quantum research, AI, and strategic resources reveal a nation thinking decades ahead while much of the West remains focused on short-term political cycles. Finally, Briggs paints a picture of the world in 2035. If China's strategy succeeds, global trade, communications, artificial intelligence, manufacturing, and financial systems could become increasingly dependent on Chinese-built platforms and standards. The question is not whether this future is inevitable. The question is whether the United States is moving with enough urgency to ensure it never happens. This episode argues that the battle for global power has already begun—and most people don't even realize they're living through it.

The Moon has fascinated humanity for thousands of years. Ancient civilizations saw gods, spirits, rabbits, and even a face staring back at them from the night sky. Long before astronauts walked on its dusty surface, the Moon inspired myths, legends, and dreams of exploration. This week on Ron's Amazing Stories, we journey back to 1950 and revisit two classic episodes from Dimension X that capture both sides of our fascination with Earth's closest celestial neighbor. In our first story, mysterious disappearances may be connected to an unsettling secret hidden on the Moon. In our second, a determined group of scientists refuses to let setbacks stop humanity's first voyage beyond Earth. Together, these stories remind us that before there were rockets and moon landings, there was imagination. In This Episode Introduction to the Moon, its history, and humanity's fascination with it A look at the groundbreaking science-fiction series Dimension X "The Man In The Moon" (July 14, 1950) Discussion of the legends and folklore surrounding the Man in the Moon "Destination Moon" (June 26, 1950) The connection between the story and the classic 1950 motion picture Robert A. Heinlein's contribution to the screenplay Reflections on Apollo, Artemis, and the future of lunar exploration Featured Stories: The Man In The Moon: People are disappearing without a trace. As authorities struggle to explain the growing mystery, clues begin pointing toward an incredible possibility. Could the answer lie far above the Earth itself? Originally broadcast July 14, 1950. Destination Moon After government funding collapses, a determined group of scientists decides to reach the Moon on their own. Racing against public opposition, legal challenges, and technical difficulties, they launch humanity's first lunar expedition. Originally broadcast June 26, 1950.

Rick Fisher discusses China's 100-year plan to dominate the solar system, specifically the Lunar South Pole's resources. He describes potential "de-confliction" issues as China uses crashing propulsion modules for landings. Fisher concludes that space is becoming an active war-fighting domain involving orbital, electronic, and cyber warfare.1940

(4) Bob Zimmerman recounts how, during the critical Lunar Orbit Insertion, the crew fired the SPS engine behind the moon with no communication and no backup; failure meant certain death. Upon arrival, the astronauts were initially disappointed by the moon's skull-like, colorless appearance, comparing it to a barren sandbox. However, the guest notes that their observations settled a decades-old scientific debate by confirming that lunar craters were the result of impacts rather than volcanic activity. This successful orbital maneuver demonstrated the power of the Saturn 5 to reach anywhere in the solar system, mirroring modern goals for space settlement.1940 GODDARD AT ROSWELL

Preview for Later Today: Rick Fisher examines the competition between the U.S. Space Force and China's militarized astronaut brigade. He highlights dual-use technologies on the moon and the importance of defending lunar assets if global geopolitics turn sour today.1958

(2) Bob Zimmerman details the December 21, 1968, launch and the historic trans-lunar injection that sent humans toward another planet for the first time. Zimmerman describes the Saturn 5 ride as surprisingly smooth compared to Gemini rockets, despite the primitive onboard computers that required manual data entry of long number strings. He shares Jim Lovell's perspective of the Earth shrinking until the entire Atlantic could be covered by a thumb. Crucially, the discussion reveals that while the Space Race remained competitive, NASA was unaware that Soviet Zond failures had secretly forced the cancellation of their own manned mission.1939
