Tonight we have a nice mix of stuff from the weekend, and some bigger picture stories that are developing before our very eyes on the "AI Race" front, as well as the culture war. Jason Bermas (https://rumble.com/c/TheInfoWarrior) joins us to talk about Elon Musk's statements made about a robot future in the United States, as well as the human future in Mars? Plenty to discuss there, and mixed in we will have some cultural hits with a strange KFC commercial, news of the failure of Snow White reboot, and a fascinating video between Charlie Kirk and a marxist college student who felt his privilege evaporate quickly.

Title: Trump's Victory Could Boost Elon Musk's Mars Dreams Introduction: The election of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States is expected to significantly impact the American space program, particularly Elon Musk's ambitious plans to send humans to Mars. According to sources familiar with the emerging space policy agenda, NASA's Artemis program may shift its focus more directly toward Mars under Trump's leadership. Three key questions to be answered: Musk's Support for Trump and Its Implications: Elon Musk has been an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump, contributing $119 million to his White House bid. Musk's endorsement of Trump has successfully elevated the importance of space policy during the presidential transition. The Trump administration is expected to prioritize a more direct approach to Mars exploration, potentially accelerating the timeline for sending humans to the Red Planet. Regulatory Changes and Their Impact on SpaceX: Under a Trump presidency, SpaceX may benefit from reduced regulatory hurdles, particularly at the Federal Aviation Administration's commercial space office. NASA is expected to favor fixed-price contracts that place greater responsibility on private companies while scaling back over-budget programs. The shift in contracting approach could have significant implications for NASA's Space Launch System (SLS) rocket, potentially leading to a restructuring or streamlining of the program. Musk's Ambitious Mars Timeline: Elon Musk has outlined an ambitious timeline for reaching Mars, including landing a Starship on the Red Planet by 2026 and launching a crewed mission four years later. Many industry experts view this timeline as overly optimistic and improbable, given the technical challenges associated with safely landing a spacecraft on Mars and establishing a sustainable human presence. Environmental Concerns and Legal Challenges: The development of SpaceX's Starship rocket at the Boca Chica launch site in Texas has raised environmental concerns, with evidence suggesting that launches have a detrimental impact on the surrounding wetlands and wildlife. The Center for Biological Diversity and local environmental organizations are currently suing the FAA for failing to conduct a comprehensive environmental impact statement before permitting SpaceX to launch Starship from the site. If regulators take a more lenient approach under the Trump administration, the courts may assume a more prominent role in enforcing environmental regulations. The Future of American Space Exploration: The potential for increased collaboration between NASA and private companies like SpaceX could accelerate the development of technologies and infrastructure necessary for human missions to Mars. However, the exploration of Mars is an enormously complex and expensive endeavor that will require sustained political support, robust funding, and close collaboration among various stakeholders. As the Trump administration takes shape, the specifics of its space policy agenda will become clearer, providing a more definitive picture of how it intends to support and shape the future of American space exploration. Conclusion: The election of Donald Trump represents an important inflection point in the history of space exploration, particularly for Elon Musk's ambitious plans to send humans to Mars. As the new administration begins to shape its space policy agenda, the world will be watching closely to see how the United States chooses to pursue this grand vision of human exploration beyond Earth.

Could this new partnership fast-track the journey to Mars? We discuss how Trump's administration might pivot NASA's focus from the Moon to the Red Planet, leveraging SpaceX's Starship and cutting through regulatory red tape. From the revival of the National Space Council to the technical capabilities of Starship, we break down what this could mean for the future of U.S. space policy and human space exploration. Key Topics Covered: Trump's Space Policy & Musk's Role: How Trump's re-election and his collaboration with Musk could make Mars exploration a top national priority. The background on Trump's earlier initiatives, like reviving the National Space Council and signing Space Policy Directive 1, which set the stage for lunar and Mars missions. The Shift from Artemis to Mars: Why Trump has always seen the Moon as a stepping stone rather than the ultimate destination. The potential pivot from NASA's Artemis program, focused on lunar missions, towards a more aggressive push for Mars, with Elon Musk leading the charge. SpaceX's Starship: The Key to Mars: The technical capabilities of Starship, including its fully reusable design and massive payload capacity. Details on what Starship can carry: habitat modules, scientific equipment, solar panels, and rovers — all crucial for building the first human settlement on Mars. How Starship's ability to launch up to 150 metric tons makes it a game-changer for deep space exploration. Musk's Vision and Timeline for Mars: Musk's ambitious timeline for landing an uncrewed Starship on Mars by 2026, with a crewed mission planned for 2028. The challenges ahead, including long-duration space travel, radiation risks, and the need for new life-support systems.

First, we delve into the progress of Noland Arbaugh, Neuralink's first human patient, who received his brain implant in January 2024. Arbaugh is now using the device to learn French and Japanese, relearn mathematics, and even explore creative writing. However, the journey hasn't been without challenges, as the implant faced a significant setback when several ultra-fine threads retracted from Arbaugh's brain weeks after the procedure.We then shift our focus to SpaceX's accelerated timeline for Mars missions. Musk has unveiled plans to launch uncrewed Starships  in 2026, with potential crewed flights following in 2028. This ambitious schedule aims to pave the way for Musk's vision of establishing a self-sustaining city on Mars within two decades. We examine the technological marvels of the Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket ever constructed, and its potential to dramatically reduce launch costs. While these developments showcase the potential of cutting-edge technology, we also explore the numerous challenges and criticisms surrounding both projects.

Several states have reported cases of the rare but serious mosquito-borne illness eastern equine encephalitis. And, the new sci-fi movie "Slingshot," about an astronaut's mental breakdown, prompts questions about how to prepare humans for long-term space travel.Mosquito-Borne Diseases Are Spreading As Temperatures RiseThis week, a New Hampshire man died of eastern equine encephalitis (EEE), a rare but extremely serious disease caused by a mosquito-borne virus. Human cases of EEE have also been reported in Wisconsin, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Vermont, causing some municipalities to step up mosquito control efforts or attempt to limit outdoor activities during peak mosquito times at dawn and dusk.Other mosquito-borne diseases are on the rise as well. Oropouche fever, a viral disease typically found in South America, has been spotted in the US—and in Brazil, health officials are reporting an 800% increase in the disease. Dengue fever, also spread by mosquitoes, has been increasing across Europe. Experts attribute all the surges to climate change, which has brought warmer, wetter weather that has allowed mosquito populations to thrive and expand their ranges.Sophie Bushwick of New Scientist joins guest host Rachel Feltman to talk about climate, mosquitoes, and disease, and how communities are trying to curb the spread. They also tackle other stories from the week in science, including a puzzling result in a dark matter search, how fruit flies change their threat perception during courtship, and investigations into how marmoset monkeys call each other by name.‘Slingshot' Imagines A Yearslong Space Mission Gone WrongThe new movie “Slingshot,” a sci-fi thriller about a yearslong mission to Saturn's moon Titan, is out in theaters today. It follows the crew members, played by Casey Affleck, Laurence Fishburne, and Tomer Capone, as they start to unravel, highlighting how long, lonely missions can put astronauts' well-being in peril.While the movie is certainly a work of science fiction, it does remind us that a lot can go wrong in space, both physically and mentally. So as humans get closer to embarking on long missions to places like Mars and beyond, how are real space agencies thinking about keeping them happy and safe?Science Friday's digital producer of engagement Emma Gometz sat down with “Slingshot” director Mikael Håfström, and former NASA organizational psychologist Dr. Kelley Slack, to answer those questions and more.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.

Ever since NASA's Perseverance rover landed on Mars three years ago, it’s been collecting rocks and soil from the red planet. The plan was for NASA to send a robotic spacecraft to Mars to bring those samples back to Earth, but the agency has now scrapped those plans thanks to a ballooning price tag and extensive delays. With no way of getting to Mars on its own, NASA is hoping to hitch a ride with private space companies to finish the mission. Marketplace's Lily Jamali spoke to Kenneth Chang, science reporter at The New York Times, about NASA’s difficulties on Mars and its partnerships with the private sector.

NASA is preparing to send humans to Mars. Although the launch date has been pushed back over the years, the agency says it wants to get there in the 2030s. And it has a lot on its to-do list. NASA needs to build new rockets, new habitable living spaces, new spacesuits, and new radiation shielding, just to name a few items.But what if the one of the biggest challenges of these missions is not the engineering, but the mental health of the astronauts? Can all of the crew members get along with each other and stay alive over the course of three years in tight quarters and unforgiving environments? How will they cope with being separated from their families and friends for so long? And what lessons can they learn from astronauts who've lived on the International Space Station—and from our collective experience of isolation during the pandemic?A new documentary, out March 8, explores all these questions and more. It's called “The Longest Goodbye,” and it dives into NASA's Human Factors program, which includes a group of psychologists who are trying to figure out the best way to preserve astronauts' mental health on a long and demanding mission.Host D. Peterschmidt spoke to the film's director, Ido Mizrahy, and one of its featured astronauts, Dr. Cady Coleman, about how NASA is thinking about tackling loneliness in space and what we can learn from astronauts who've already lived on the space station.Plus, a listener shares his experience about performing a drumroll for the solar eclipse.Universe of Art is hosted and produced by D.

We just couldn't help it! With Lego Space making waves in 2024, we had to return to our favorite classic Lego theme, warping to the end of the golden age of the classic themes in the late 90s, the rise of Star Wars, and the intermediate return of the theme throughout the 2000s and the 2010s. We discuss UFO, Roboforce, Insectoids, Life on Mars, Mars Mission, Space Police III, and others along the way! Follow along at https://brickset.com/ . 

Join Jeff Zweerink and Steve Baertschi, president of Baertschi Consulting, 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.   Perils of Space Travel Although science fiction makes space travel seem almost inevitable, current research demonstrates numerous challenges to humans residing in space for long periods of time. Along with the well-known detrimental effects on muscle mass and density, research shows that prolonged periods in space expose the human body to far more radiation than encountered here on Earth. That radiation dramatically decreases our bodies' capacity to fight off cancer and to keep past viral exposure in check. Additionally, radiation impacts the function of our gastrointestinal system and its ability to absorb nutrients and oral medications. These results highlight Earth's amazing capacity to host a diverse and abundant array of life. Drug Stability for Mars Mission Drug stability is a function of the storage environment. Shelf-lives of 2–3 years (from refrigerated to room temperature storage) are common. NASA is planning for a roundtrip mission to Mars, expected to last 2–3 years. Little is known about the stability of drugs in deep space (outside of Earth's protective magnetosphere). Limited studies of drugs on the International Space Station raise significant questions that have identified critical parameters: microgravity, vibration, humidity, ionizing radiation, carbon dioxide levels, and repackaging. Can we ensure a safe, stable drug formulatory that will meet all of the health needs for a round-trip journey to Mars in the deep space environment?   References:   PODCAST LINKS:   Space Radiation Triggers Persistent Stress Response, Increases Senescent Signaling, and Decreases Cell Migration in Mouse Intestine   NK Cell Function Is Impaired during Long-Duration Spaceflight   Negative Effects of Long-Duration Spaceflight on Paraspinal Muscle Morphology YOUTUBE LINKS:   Santosh Kumar et al., “Space Radiation Triggers Persistent Stress Response, Increases Senescent Signaling, and Decreases Cell Migration in Mouse Intestine,” https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1807522115   Austin B.

Today we have the former chief scientist of NASA's Human Research Program, Dr. Mark Shelhamer. Mark specializes in neurovestibular adaptation to spaceflight. He is an otolaryngology professor at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the director of the school's Human Spaceflight Lab. He also the director and founder of the Bioastronautics at Hopkins initiative. In addition to his work with NASA, Mark is an advisor to the commercial and consumer spaceflight industry. In today's interview, we talk to Mark about some of this work, as well as the research he conducted on the first all-civilian crew that successfully orbited the Earth for three days in a SpaceX capsule. We mostly talk to Mark, however, about how the harsh conditions of space imperil humans. We have a fascinating discussion about Mark's role in NASA's planned human mission to Mars and how he is investigating ways to maintain the health and performance of astronauts on such a long-duration spaceflight.  We also discuss how the lessons Mark is learning about how the lessons of human spaceflight can be applied to healthcare on Earth. Show notes: [00:02:42] Dawn starts the interview mentioning that Mark grew up in Philadelphia in the ‘70s. She asks Mark what he was like as a kid. [00:03:32] Dawn asks if it is true that Mark played drums in a band in school. [00:03:54] Ken asks Mark to talk about an uncle who was key in fostering Mark's interest in math and science. [00:05:31] Ken mentions that Mark was only 10 years old when he took up an interest in electronics and asks what sparked that and what electronics he specifically found interesting. [00:08:14] Dawn mentions that Mark attended Drexel University and initially wanted to become an electrical engineer but changed his mind somewhere along the way. Dawn asks what caused this shift. [00:10:20] Ken asks Mark why he selected to attend MIT after Drexel. [00:13:52] Ken asks Mark how he ended up at Johns Hopkins after finishing his studies at MIT. [00:15:52] Dawn mentions that when Mark arrived at Johns Hopkins as a postdoc fellow in 1990, he continued the research he had been doing at MIT on sensory motor physiology and modeling, including astronaut adaptation to space flight. Dawn asks Mark to give an overview of this research as well as how he tracked back into studying astronauts. [00:17:15] Ken mentions Mark's 2007 book “Nonlinear Dynamics in Physiology: A State-Space Approach,” which provides mathematical-computational tools for analyzing experimental data. Ken asks Mark to talk about the book and its goals. [00:20:43] Ken mentions that Mark has done quite a bit of research into motion sickness and vestibular issues, and asks about his more recent work on Space Motion Sickness. [00:24:53] Dawn explains that on Mark's Wikipedia page, there's a reference to his pioneering work on a multidisciplinary approach to human space flight research. She asks Mark to give an overview of this work. [00:29:17] Dawn explains that spaceflight has widespread effects on many different body systems at the same time, and that Mark has been an advocate for developing approaches to examining all these interactions in a rigorous way. Dawn asks if Mark feels that we should be taking this rigorous multidisciplinary approach and applying it to terrestrial medicine as well. [00:34:08] Ken asks Mark to talk about some of the progress he has made in convincing certain groups that they need to embrace a multidisciplinary approach to their research. [00:38:37] Dawn mentions that getting people, especially groups, to change their approach to research can be a daunting task. She goes on to mention that Mark has been quoted as saying “If there's one thing I'm known for, it's banging my head against the wall trying to convince people to do integrative research.” Dawn asks Mark how many scars he has on his forehead from these efforts. [00:43:00] Dawn asks Mark to talk about his informal experti...
