Partons ensemble sur une mer déchaînée, aux trousses de l'explorateur FERNAND DE MAGELLAN, qui tentera tant bien que mal de compléter le tout premier tour du monde par bateau de l'Histoire! D'ailleurs, pourquoi quelqu'un avait-il besoin de faire ça au juste?

Are Coronal Mass Ejections dangerous to life on Earth? When are we finally going to plunge through the sulfuric acid clouds to measure the atmosphere of Venus. And what's up with 'Oumuamua and 3I/Atlas? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome astrobiologist Dr. David Grinspoon, aka Dr. FunkySpoon. As always, we start with the day's joyfully cool cosmic thing: the arrival at Earth of two consecutive Coronal Mass Ejections on Nov. 11, 2025, creating an amazing display of Northern and Sothern Lights. In the US, aurora were seen as far south as Texas and even Central America, and yet Chuck, Alan and David were all frustrated by clouds in their own attempts to see them! Luckily, they've each already seen auroras with their own eyes, a viewing event David likens to seeing a total solar eclipse. David discusses how solar flares can impact human technology, but that while solar flares from other stars could be dangerous for life on their planets, at this point in our sun's lifetime, they are unlikely to wipe out life on Earth. Chuck shares aurora images that were taken by our previous guest, astrophotographer Elliot Severn. For our audience questions this week, we're answering questions given to Chuck while he was presenting at an event in Erie, PA. The first question Chuck asks David is, “When we have interstellar visitors like 'Oumuamua and 3I/Atlas, [1] why are they moving so fast in our space? They seem to defy gravity [2] How can they know what 3I/atlas is made of but not the density or materials?” David explains why the extreme speed at which they are moving is actually proof that they are interstellar objects and not something else. He also discusses how we use spectroscopy to determine what they're made of the same way we determine what distant stars and exoplanets are made of. Our next question from Erie, PA is, “Is there a mathematical probability or formula to predict the likelihood of life existing int he universe? In other words, has someone developed a model to predict how many unique things need to happen for life to evolve?” David explains the Drake Equation, a series of questions that help astrobiologists assess the probability of intelligent life in the galaxy. Our last question from Erie is, “If humans find life on a different planet, would we actually understand how to coexist with the information, or will world leaders hide the truth from us?” David points out – as someone who has helped devise astrobiology policy – that the response depends in part on the specifics of the discovery, like how far away that life is. But would the government be able to hide it? David says that the scientists who discover it would be shouting it from the rooftops: “How long would it take to type it and hit send?” And as Chuck points out, the very act of the government trying to censor it would turbocharge the speed at which scientists would get the news out. The real problem, David says, is the potential of each discovery being overhyped by journalists, leading to public burnout. He brings up two examples of overhype: the discovery of possible biosignatures in iron nodules on the Martian rock Cheyava Falls in 2024 by the Perseverance Rover, and the presence of dimethyl sulphide in the atmospheric composition of exoplanet K2-18 b. Next, we turn to David's “second favorite planet,” Venus, which he has studied and written about extensively. David shows us the first book he ever wrote, “Venus Revealed” and talks about upcoming missions to Venus: two from the US, DAVINCI and VERITAS; a European Space Agency mission named EnVision; a Venus Orbiter Mission by India's ISRO, and a private Rocket Lab mission to Venus. David, who is involved with the DAVINCI mission, tells us about the plan to plunge through the sulfuric acid clouds to measure the Venusian atmosphere and surface with modern instruments for the first time. We end with a discussion of the anti-science cycle we're going through, and David shares why he thinks this moment is so unusual and scary, but also why there is reason for hope. Chuck talks about why scientists take the long perspective, and David reminds us of the huge worldwide support for the exploration of space.

La seizième édition du Festival Les Traversées Mauritanides à Nouakchott, capitale de la Mauritanie et lieu de rendez-vous d'une vingtaine d'écrivains vient de s'ouvrir.  Quatre émissions consacrées aux littératures et aux langues de Mauritanie à l'occasion de ces rencontres littéraires. Et une question essentielle pour commencer : quel est le panorama des littératures mauritaniennes aujourd'hui, un pays où cohabitent deux langues : le français et l'arabe ? On est dans un pays où les littératures se côtoient mais se rencontrent rarement, explique Mariem Derwich.  Née avec l'indépendance du pays, dans les années 60, la littérature mauritanienne francophone occupe une place importante dans le patrimoine culturel mauritanien. Le roman est le genre dominant de la littérature même si la littérature mauritanienne est née avec la poésie ! Et bien que le français ait perdu son statut de langue officielle, la littérature mauritanienne francophone reste très importante. L'un des romanciers mauritaniens de langue française les plus connus est Beyrouk. Né en 1957 à Atar, il dit avoir rencontré la langue française «par hasard» et être tombé amoureux de cette langue en lisant «Les Misérables» de Victor Hugo. Il écrit en langue française «un véritable choix pour lui et un engagement». Son dernier roman Saara, publié aux éditions Elyzad en 2022 raconte l'histoire d'une héroïne qui se définit comme une «femme libre» qui refuse la pression sociale et religieuse. Son prochain roman s'intitulera «Le vieux fou et la petite fille qui n'était pas belle.» "J'essaye d'écrire les autres, de nous écrire et même de m'écrire".  Beyrouck  Marieme Derwich est chroniqueuse et poétesse et elle aussi écrit en français, sa langue maternelle. Une langue qui lui «a ouvert le monde», selon ses termes et dans laquelle elle «rêve». Elle a écrit pendant très longtemps dans l'hebdomadaire mauritanien Le Calame pour raconter le quotidien de la Mauritanie. En 2014, elle a publié le recueil de poèmes Mille et un Je. Elle estime que la littérature doit être dynamique. «Il faut qu'on raconte comment chaque Mauritanien est arrivé avec ses coutumes, ses ancêtres, ses langues. La littérature est vivante, on ne peut pas passer notre vie à pleurer quelque chose qui n'a pas existé !» Elle publiera les Nouvelles de Mauritanie, au printemps 2026, aux éditions Magellan. Quant à Ndiaye Sarr, il est enseignant en Lettres modernes francophones à l'Université de Nouakchott et spécialiste du roman mauritanien francophone. Il y enseigne essentiellement la littérature d'Afrique francophone. Il raconte que les littératures mauritaniennes ont beaucoup évolué car, selon lui, car les premiers romans pouvaient se définir comme «ethnographiques». La génération suivante a produit des romans qui interrogent les dynamiques de la société mauritanienne et ses chamboulements, et qui dénoncent les violences politiques, comme celles de 1999. «Mais chaque communauté a sa propre littérature», précise-t-il. Une littérature qui aborde souvent les problématiques liées à la Mauritanie contemporaine.  Mais il existe également une littérature féminine avec des autrices comme Belinda Mohamed ou Safi Ba : une littérature qui dénonce l'oppression des femmes et qui ouvre le débat citoyennes. Le pays au million de poètes Enfin, les Mauritaniens, toutes ethnies confondues, sont très attachés à la poésie ; que ce soit la poésie amoureuse, la poésie religieuse ou la poésie guerrière. Dans notre émission également, un reportage à la librairie Vents du Sud à Nouakchott, une librairie créée en 1994, et la seule librairie francophone de Mauritanie. Elle est fréquentée par des francophones et des étudiants. On y trouve des auteurs classiques comme Victor Hugo, Racine ou Balzac, mais aussi des auteurs contemporains comme Emmanuel Carrère ou Marie Desplechin.     Programmation musicale :  L'artiste griotte Noura Mint Saymaly avec le titre Guéreh, extrait de son nouvel album.

I gamle dage drog europæiske opdagelsesrejsende ud i verden for at lære noget og kortlægge verden. Navne som Columbus, Magellan, Cook og Nansen er i den europæiske histories Hall of Fame. I sommeren 2025 drog en ny ekspedition ud i verden med den hensigt at blive klogere på verden og os selv. Målet var ikke guld eller handelsruter og togtplanen indeholdt ikke sydhavsøer eller poler. I stedet var turens mål vores eget lille Danmark, og formålet var formidle og diskutere viden. I dette afsnit af Kampen om historien taler Asser Amdisen med historiker Nils Valdersdorf og sømand og arkitekt Kristian Hansen om Danmarksekspeditionen 2025, og om hvad vi kan bruge historien til.

Some places are built weird. Others get used weird — and that's when things start stacking. This episode starts with a listener who grew up near Madison, Wisconsin, in the late '90s and found the ultimate teenager hangout: a random outdoor elevator with a phone in it. It ran on an old Magellan-style system, calls were free, and bored kids could sit in a heated box on winter nights and dial whoever they wanted. Sounds harmless, right? Except that phone also got calls from people who weren't bored kids. Violent threats. Screaming in the background. People saying they knew where the kids were and were “waiting outside.” Then, years later, news breaks: a man was arrested for using that exact elevator line to lure girls — and one attack turned deadly. After that, the elevator got a reputation. So was it just a sketchy spot in a bad part of town? Or did a bunch of bored teens accidentally wake up a place that was already collecting dark energy? #RealGhostStoriesOnline #HauntedElevator #CreepyCalls #ParanormalPodcast #UrbanHaunting #TrueParanormal #UnexplainedActivity #HauntedPlaces #WisconsingGhostStories #DarkEnergy   Love real ghost stories?

Partons à la rencontre d'un enfant du pays bamiléké qui se rêvait Magellan, voyageant tout autour du monde ; un Camerounais d'origine et lyonnais d'adoption, qui a traversé la grande histoire en vivant la sienne. Il s'appelle Boniface Magellan Nguelo. Cet homme, aujourd'hui âgé de plus de 80 ans, aura mené une vie intrépide et férocement curieuse, de ses collines natales de l'Ouest camerounais à l'époque coloniale à l'Andalousie en passant par la Guinée équatoriale et enfin la France où il a posé ses valises depuis plus de quarante ans. Une vie exemplaire aussi à plus d'un titre, de toute une génération, trop longtemps restée dans l'ombre, d'aventuriers africains de la migration qui aurait pu rester anonyme… Sauf qu'un jour, au cœur du vieux Lyon et de l'automne, Boniface, artiste dans l'âme, a croisé le chemin de l'écrivain voyageur et ethnologue français Jean-Yves Loude, qui s'est fait connaître pour ses enquêtes sur les mémoires assassinées des Afriques et ses traversées du monde portugais. Ainsi, après trois décennies d'amitié curieuse, mais pudique, entre les deux hommes, Jean-Yves Loude a entrepris de raconter de sa plume alerte l'histoire de son ami peintre et grand voyageur, dans un livre «L'enfant voyageur» paru en France aux Éditions Magellan. En rédigeant les mémoires de ce passe-frontières, en célébrant l'ouverture et l'altérité qui a présidé à leur rencontre comme à leurs existences respectives, Jean-Yves Loude fait de Boniface un «explorateur des temps modernes», un «nouveau découvreur». Car «combien d'Africains sont-ils admis dans le cercle des voyageurs prestigieux, partis de leur plein gré pour enrichir, à leur retour, la connaissance des communautés humaines?» Rencontre avec Boniface Magellan Nguelo et Jean-Yves Loude, à l'occasion du Festival du Grand Bivouac qui s'est tenu à Albertville en octobre 2025.   À lire : - «L'enfant voyageur, une histoire camerounaise», de Jean-Yves Loude. Éditions Magellan. 2025- «Le chemin des vierges enceintes», de Jean-Yves Loude, avec Viviane Lièvre. Éditions Chandeigne. 2022- «Un cargo pour les Açores», de Jean-Yves Loude, avec Viviane Lièvre. Éditions Actes Sud. 2018.

Ferdinand Magellan was a brave explorer who lived a long time ago. He was the first person to lead a voyage around the whole world. Magellan set sail from Spain with five ships and many sailors. They faced storms, hunger, and even battles, but they kept going. Magellan discovered a way through the sea that is now called the Strait of Magellan. Although he didn't make it back home, his journey changed how people saw the world forever.

As the 63rd New York Film Festival drew to a close last weekend, it was once again time for Film Comment's Festival Report, our annual live overview of the NYFF that was. FC Editor Clinton Krute was joined by critics Molly Haskell, J. Hoberman, and Beatrice Loayza for a spirited wrap-up analysis of the highlights and lowlights from the NYFF63 lineup. In front of a lively audience, the panel discussed and debated Radu Jude's Kontinental '25, Noah Baumbach's Jay Kelly, Kelly Reichardt's The Mastermind, Lav Diaz's Magellan, Mary Bronstein's If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, Alexandre Koberidze's Dry Leaf, and many other selections.

Markets are on fire and bubble talk is everywhere. So how should investors respond? In this episode, Magellan's Arvid Streimann breaks down how to keep emotion out of your decisions, where he's finding genuine value, and why he still believes in the power of brands and discipline. ________________________ Thanks to our Sponsor AlphaSense This latest episode is brought to you by AlphaSense.

This week Beau finishes his narrative about Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. With Magellan himself now dead, the remnants of his ‘armada' load their hulls with Cloves in Indonesia, and attempt to reach Spain by continuing eastwards. Many more adventures and disasters await them.

This week Beau continues the narrative of Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. Magellan himself has been killed, so a new Captain-General needs to be chosen, and more adventure ensues as the remaining men and ships finally reach ‘The Spice Islands' located in modern day Indonesia.

Send us a textToday the crew is plagued by animal phobias, confuses Magellan and Marco Polo, suggests some possible fallback jobs for Pastor Matt if preaching doesn't work out, talks about who they voted for in 2nd grade, predicts the outcome on the latest season of "Bracketeering," (Top Dogs Edition!) and is reminded by Pastor Matt about what comes after "I don't know, I wasn't there."

This week Beau continues the narrative of Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. Magellan becomes increasingly aggressive when trying to assert his domination over various Filipino tribes; has he finally met his match on the island of Mactan and its leader, Lapu Lapu?

Ghislaine Maxwell is the youngest child of the late media mogul Robert Maxwell, and she has several sisters who have kept lower profiles compared to her own notoriety. Among them are Isabel and Christine Maxwell, who were once prominent figures in the tech and business world. Christine co-founded the search engine Magellan in the 1990s and has worked in education and technology, while Isabel has also been active in digital enterprises and philanthropy. Both women have largely tried to distance themselves from the criminal scandals surrounding their sister Ghislaine, although their family name inevitably drags them into the broader narrative of the Maxwell legacy.Another Maxwell sister, Anne Maxwell, pursued a career in academia and publishing, living a more private life compared to Christine and Isabel. The sisters grew up in the shadow of their father's controversial empire and the scandal following his death in 1991, when Robert Maxwell drowned under mysterious circumstances after being accused of looting company pension funds. The Maxwell daughters, especially Christine and Isabel, attempted to rebuild the family's reputation through their professional careers, but Ghislaine's ties to Jeffrey Epstein and subsequent conviction further tainted the already troubled Maxwell name.Al Seckel, a former partner of Isabel Maxwell, was a writer and self-styled expert in optical illusions who moved in elite social circles, often connected to science and skepticism communities. Seckel's life ended under murky circumstances—he reportedly died in 2015 after a fall near his home in France, though questions have lingered about the exact details of his death due to his history of financial scandals and fraud allegations. His connection to the Maxwell family through Isabel added another layer of intrigue to the family's saga, intertwining themes of scandal, deception, and mystery that seem to recur throughout the Maxwell story.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Gene Mack, CEO and President of Gain Therapeutics, is combining AI-powered drug discovery with the development of allosteric modulators, drugs that bind to unique sites on proteins. The company's AI platform, Magellan, is crucial for accelerating drug discovery by reducing the time for computational screening of potential drug compounds.  Their lead compound is showing promising results as a potential disease-modifying therapy for Parkinson's disease, aiming to halt the progression of the disease rather than just treating symptoms. Gene explains, "So allosteric modulators of protein, it's a bit of a word salad, but what we're trying to achieve here is finding unique binding sites on proteins that are sort of away from the active site of that protein." "So, a lot of physics calculations go into these binding site calculations. The idea is to complete these quickly during the screening of hundreds or thousands of compounds. This process takes 10 to 15 minutes to run a set of computations and determine if a particular molecule is a fit for a specific protein. If that takes 10 or 15 minutes per compound, it's not a very big deal to go to that library if you need to get through billions, trillions of those compounds, and you need that computational speed to really fire up." "We are able to speed up those calculations from, let's say, 10 minutes to milliseconds. You can screen through much larger numbers of compounds and potentially even construct new molecules that are not known to the public domain, which would be a real key innovation." "What we think we have in our lead program, which is GT-02287, another molecule that was discovered through our application of Magellan. What we hope we have in GT-02287 is a disease-modifying approach to Parkinson's. Up until now, the only available treatments for Parkinson's are really just focused on the symptoms and allaying the severity of the symptoms." #Parkinsons #ParkinsonsDisease #AI #DrugDiscovery #GAINtherapeutics #DiseaseModification gaintherapeutics.com Download the transcript here

This week Beau continues the narrative of Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. Magellan and his remaining men finally reach the Pacific ocean, and promptly plunge straight into it. What follows is a nearly four months long survival ordeal, where scurvy claims the lives of many crew members.

This is the first in a series of five episodes regarding America's history with its first colony, the Philippines.  300 years before America's surprise arrival just days into the Spanish American war, the Spanish came to Manila.  Ferdinand Magellan's infamous demise should have been their first warning.  in this episode, we examine the archipelago's history with the Spanish friars, Chinese ex-pats, and Jose Rizal, one of the many Filipino martyrs in the story of Filipino independence.  Contact the show at resourcesbylowery@gmail.com or on Bluesky @EmpiresPod If you would like to financially support the show, please use the following paypal link.

This week Beau continues the narrative of Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. This week Magellan tackles the incredibly bleak but beautiful maze of fjords that was destined to take his name, as well as suffering the disaster of losing a second ship.

Fernao Mendes Pinto described a shipwreck in the Land of Gold — Lequios, which Barbosa and Magellan equated with Ophir. For centuries, the debate has raged: Was it the Philippines or Ryukyu?This is valid academic history from primary sources. And when we test the evidence — geography, archaeology, culture, and resources — the case for Ryukyu collapses while the Philippines stands undeniable.Geography: Luzon (109,000 km²) dwarfs Okinawa (1,200 km²). Pinto knew the difference.Culture: Pre-colonial Ivatan stone homes with basements and pagoda-like structures align with Pinto's record. Ryukyu? No basements.Archaeology: Excavations in Batanes reveal jade workshops, nephrite tools, and Maritime Jade Route trade networks connecting Luzon, Taiwan, and Vietnam. Ryukyu is missing entirely.Resources: Gold, ivory, silver — all in the Philippines. Ryukyu had none.

This week Beau continues the narrative of Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. This week Magellan has to contend with the loss of his first ship, that crew's survival ordeal, and their first encounters - both friendly and unfriendly - with entirely new indigenous peoples.

This week Beau continues the narrative of Ferdinand Magellan's terrifying circumnavigation of the globe. This week Magellan has to contend with a full-scale mutiny within his tiny armada. The odds look overwhelmingly dire from his point of view.

‘This week Beau takes another quick hiatus from the Magellan story to chat with Elizabeth Heverin about the life and works of Geoffrey of Monmouth, with especial focus on the Arthurian legends.'

This week Beau takes a hiatus from the Magellan story to chat with David English all about the 1565 siege of Malta. It's a cracking story. The Knights Hospitaller surrounded and outnumbered, fighting seemingly insurmountable odds, just utterly refuse to give in. Tis the stuff of legend!'
