Un equipo del Instituto Max Planck para la Investigación del Sistema Solar en Alemania ha localizado una gigantesca "fábrica de planetas" oculta justo más allá de la órbita de Júpiter. Al abrirse paso por aquel disco primigenio, su colosal gravedad barrió el material, abriendo una enorme brecha vacía. Los científicos lo descubrieron a través de los meteoritos. El equipo del Max Planck recreó las condiciones del Sistema Solar primitivo en una sofisticada simulación por ordenador, introduciendo millones de partículas y observando cómo el gas las arrastraba o las fragmentaba. La investigadora Nerea Gurrutxaga y la doctora Joanna Drążkowska fueron más allá. Querían resolver si esta única región pudo mantener la fábrica abierta durante millones de años.

In this inspiring episode of Reading with Your Kids, Jed welcomes Michael J. Wish, author of the middle-grade nonfiction book "Quantum Physics for Kids." Mike shares how a challenge from a fellow teacher—and a disappointing existing kids' book on the topic—pushed him to prove that even the "hardest" science can be explained to 8–12-year-olds with clarity, humor, and heart. Drawing on his college teaching experience, Mike walks us through a kid-friendly version of quantum physics, from the "purple disaster" (the ultraviolet catastrophe) to Max Planck's radical idea that energy comes in tiny, discrete packets. He explains how this strange, subatomic world helps us understand glowing hot metal, stable atoms, and why the universe doesn't behave the way our everyday intuition expects. More than just science, Mike and Jed dig deep into mindset, resilience, and learning. Mike argues that success isn't about being "a math person," but about developing "aggressive curiosity" and the willingness to struggle with hard ideas. He shares how he practices this with his own daughter—pushing just past frustration, but stopping before misery—and why failure is really "learning happening right now." He also talks about imposter syndrome, his first humble word-search book, and the joy of hearing a 10-year-old read Quantum Physics for Kids cover-to-cover in one night. Later in the episode, Jed invites listeners to enjoy a listen-back conversation with author Cynthia Harmony about her beautiful picture book "A Flicker of Hope," which weaves together monarch butterfly migration, Mexican culture, and a touching story of family separation and reunion.

Pesmi, ki jih je ustvarjal v zadnjih letih življenja, govorijo o apokalipsi starega sveta, obenem pa tudi že ustvarjajo nov, etično prenovljen kozmos, utemeljen na prelomnih spoznanjih relativnostne in kvantne fizikeZdaj, ko od njegove smrti mineva sto let, in se razgledujemo po literarnem opusu, ki nam ga je komaj dvaindvajsetleten zapustil, se ni mogoče ne čuditi se Srečku Kosovelu. V nekaj kratkih letih ustvarjanja je pesnik namreč ustvaril opus, ki ni le nenavadno obsežen, ampak tudi notranje sila pester, raznolik in pogosto naravnost vizionarski. Številni bralke in bralci ga seveda cenimo prvenstveno zaradi nežnih, občutenih impresij, v katerih je – slej ko prej pod vplivom Josipa Murna – upesnjeval rodno kraško krajino, a z minevanjem časa postaja jasno, da je najbrž še pomembnejši, nagovorno še močnejši tisti del njegovega pesništva, v katerem Kosovel tematizira nov, radikalno spremenjen položaj, v katerem se je prav v času njegovega življenja znašlo človeštvo. Pomislimo: Einstein objavi svojo relativnostno teorijo leta 1905, Picasso naslika Avignonske gospodične leta 1907, sedem let zatem izbruhne prva svetovna vojna, še tri leta pozneje pa oktobrska revolucija. Svet starih, stoletnih gotovosti, v katerega se je marca leta 1904 Kosovel rodil, je do njegovega 14 leta kratko malo prenehal obstajati. In tega se je Kosovel za razloček od velike večine tedanjih Slovencev – pa ne le Slovencev, kar Evropejcev – očitno zelo dobro zavedal. Pesmi, ki jih je ustvarjal v zadnjem obdobju življenja, namreč tematizirajo propad, apokaliptični propad starega sveta, obenem pa tudi že stopajo v nek nov prostor, v nek nov, etično prenovljen kozmos, ki ga, podkletene z idejami Friedricha Nietzscheja, Karla Marxa, ruskih avantgardistov ter relativnostne in celo kvantne fizike, ustvarjajo tako rekoč sproti, iz verza v verz. Toda: kako se je Kosovelu sploh uspelo seznaniti se z vsemi temi idejami? Kako jih je spajal med seboj? In, jasno, kakšne etične konsekvence je uspel potegniti iz osupljivih novih odkritij, do katerih so se takrat dokopale naravoslovne znanosti s fiziko na čelu? – To je le nekaj vprašanj, ki so nas zaposlovala v tokratnem Kulturnem fokusu, ko smo pred mikrofonom gostili enega naših najboljših poznavalcev Kosovela, literarnega zgodovinarja, dolgoletnega predavatelja na Oddelku za primerjalno književnost in literarno teorijo ljubljanske Filozofske fakultete, dr. Janeza Vrečka, avtorja še sveže razprave Čas ≡ prostor (LUD Literatura), v kateri se posveča doslej neraziskanemu vprašanju, kako sta na Kosovela vplivala Albert Einstein in Max Planck in kako je, oborožen z njunimi spoznanji, naš pesnik stopil v frontalni spopad z do tedaj prevladujočimi koncepcijami sveta, ki so počivale na starih idejah Renéja Descartesa in Isaaca Newtona.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there was a problem that stumped even the best minds in physics. Eventually, one man, Max Planck, solved the problem, but his solution was one that was out of left field. While the math worked, he didn't actually believe that the mathematics explained reality. It turned out his discovery was more true than he realized and it ushed in a revolution in the world of physics that completely changed our view of nature and reality.  Learn more about the ultraviolet catastrophe and the birth of quantum mechanics on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Di ruang-ruang sunyi di mana kapur beradu dengan papan tulis yang kusam, manusia seperti Albert Einstein pernah mencoba menangkap bayang-bayang Sang Pencipta dalam satu baris matematika yang ringkas. Dari kepastian mekanistik Newton—di mana semesta adalah jam raksasa yang patuh—kita kemudian dilemparkan ke dalam kegelisahan Max Planck dan Werner Heisenberg melalui mekanika kuantum. Di sana, atom bukan lagi benda pejal yang bisa dipegang, melainkan kekosongan yang bergetar dalam paket-paket energi yang disebut quanta; sebuah dunia di mana kepastian rapi telah digantikan oleh kemungkinan-kemungkinan yang bergoyang seperti nasib yang belum terbaca, membuat kita sadar bahwa realitas ternyata jauh lebih getas dari yang kita duga. Kegamangan ini sempat membuat Einstein masygul, seolah ia tak rela melihat Tuhan menjadi pemain judi yang gemar melempar dadu di atas meja semesta. Namun, melalui fisika kuantum, kita justru belajar tentang kejujuran alam yang paling dalam: bahwa keberadaan sering kali membutuhkan saksi, dan masa depan bukanlah garis lurus yang sudah ditentukan, melainkan tarian probabilitas yang misterius. Di tingkat subatomik, semesta nampaknya enggan untuk didikte, membiarkan "kucing" Schrödinger berada di antara hidup dan mati sampai sebuah tangan membuka kotak itu. Di sini, Tuhan barangkali bukanlah sang mandor yang kaku, melainkan sebuah rahasia yang membiarkan semesta menuliskan kisahnya sendiri dalam ketidakpastian yang puitis. Kini, melalui Teori Dawai atau String Theory, para fisikawan mencoba menyatukan kekacauan kuantum itu dengan keanggunan relativitas dalam sebuah harmoni yang baru. Segala materi di dunia ini dibayangkan bukan sebagai butiran mati, melainkan sebagai dawai-dawai mikroskopis yang bergetar dalam dimensi-dimensi yang tersembunyi. Jika semesta adalah sebuah simfoni agung yang beresonansi melalui ruang-waktu, maka "Persamaan Tuhan" yang dicari Einstein mungkin bukanlah sekadar angka, melainkan musik kosmik yang melampaui nalar fana kita. Di sanalah keilahian akhirnya bermuara—bukan pada sebuah jawaban mutlak yang menutup perdebatan, melainkan pada keindahan simfoni yang terus bergema di balik kesunyian jagat raya yang tak terbatas.

As Desta Barnabe and I gather together a book called Indigestible which looks at the secrecy and the underlying complexity of the UFO mystery, I present a Podcast based on the overall indigestible problem.This podcast explores the idea that the truth behind Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) may be fundamentally philosophical and consciousness-based, rather than purely technological. The host, Grant Cameron, provides the Jim Semivan concept of an “indigestible truth,” suggesting that governments globally remain silent because the reality of the phenomenon—involving nonhuman intelligence and nonphysical interactions—is too strange and disruptive to be publicly understood. The script emphasizes the centrality of consciousness, citing thinkers like Max Planck and drawing on concepts like the “filter hypothesis” of the brain and the illusory nature of the ego, which is described as the main obstacle to accepting a unified reality. Ultimately, the text argues that the true secret of the phenomenon is not "out there" but "within," requiring humanity to overcome its attachment to materialist science, societal beliefs, and the ego's fear of dissolving the illusion of separation.Grant Cameron Websitepresidentialufo.orgGrant Cameron Bookshttps://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B00EFGCJRC

Recurrence Transits in Astrology

An introduction to an obscure but powerful timing technique called recurrence transits, which occur when specific planetary alignments in the birth chart are repeated by transits in the sky, with astrologers Chris Brennan and Nick Dagan Best. Unlike standard transits that form aspects to specific points in the natal chart, a recurrence transit occurs when a planetary alignment found in a birth chart repeats in the sky between those same two planets. For example, if a person was born with a Venus-Jupiter conjunction in their birth chart, then an important event will happen in their life in the future when Venus and Jupiter again form a conjunction in the sky. The episode uses the analogy that specific planetary alignments in the birth chart act like a personal theme song; when the planets repeat the same alignment in the sky, it is as if that music starts playing again, signaling a pivotal turning point where the natal potential of the birth signature becomes awakened through a resonance between past and future. The episode opens by exploring the history and transmission of the technique, which is relatively unknown in the English-speaking world at the present time. Nick shares how he learned the method from the late Michael Lutin in the 1990s, while Chris traces potential roots back to early 20th-century German astrology and ancient Hellenistic texts like Vettius Valens. A key point emphasized early on is how these mundane planetary recurrences operate independently of aspects to natal placements, forcing a conceptual expansion of what defines a transit, and demonstrating how planetary cycles can be tied into important turning points in a life narrative even without direct contact with birth chart placements. To demonstrate the technique in practice, most of the episode is spent presenting a wide range of biographical examples as case studies, and focusing primarily on conjunctions in order to keep things simple and compelling. Case studies include the technological breakthroughs of Steve Jobs and Max Planck, the artistic peaks of Vincent van Gogh and Madonna, and the political rises and falls of figures like Richard Nixon and Joe Biden. The workshop also examines how retrogrades can both extend and intensify the importance of certain recurrence transits, as seen in the lives of Edward Snowden and Charles Manson, and we also touch on shared recurrences in relationships, such as Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. The conversation concludes with a broader philosophical discussion on what this technique implies about the nature of astrology, touching on concepts like simulation theory and the definition of astrology as a map of time. This episode serves as a comprehensive foundation for understanding recurrence transits, providing astrologers and students with a powerful, empirically driven tool for predictive work and biographical analysis that complements traditional methods.

The Consciousness Debate: Cosmic Field or Biological Marvel?Where does consciousness come from? Is it a mysterious energy field we tune into, or a magnificent product of our own biology? In this gripping episode of The Debate, we dive headfirst into the ultimate riddle, pitting two fundamentally opposed views against each other in a clash of science, philosophy, and profound human experience.Arguing for the revolutionary “consciousness field” model, our first speaker posits that consciousness is a fundamental, non-local force woven into the fabric of the cosmos—a cosmic internet to which the brain is merely a biological antenna. Drawing on the insights of quantum pioneers like Max Planck and Erwin Schrödinger, this perspective suggests we don't create consciousness, but rather filter it from a universal source. This radical idea promises to explain everything from sudden genius to what happens when we die.Challenging this is the emergent view, which grounds consciousness firmly in the living body. Here, consciousness isn't a signal from the void, but a stunning achievement of biological self-organization. Through the lens of "autopoiesis," our second speaker argues that mind arises from the brain's constant, dynamic interaction with the world—a complex dance of neurons, senses, and environment that actively brings forth our reality.The debate ignites over extraordinary evidence. How can we explain the instant mathematical genius of Srinivasa Ramanujan, who claimed his formulas were divine gifts in dreams? Or acquired savants who gain profound musical or artistic abilities after a head injury? Is this a "download" from a universal field, or simply the unlocking of the brain's own dormant potential?The confrontation reaches its peak with the mystery of near-death experiences. Can consciousness exist when the brain has shut down? One side sees proof of a mind leaving the body; the other points to plausible, if extreme, neurological explanations. The discussion expands to encompass quantum entanglement, the structure of ant colonies, and the very nature of reality itself.This is more than an academic exercise. It's a profound inquiry into who and what we are. Are we transient biological machines, or eternal fragments of a universal mind? Join us for a journey to the frontier of science and spirit, where the answers we seek could redefine the very nature of existence.Keywords: #Consciousness #Emergenttheory #NonLocal #Consciousness #Panpsychism #Neuroscience #Quantum #Physics #NDE #Savant #HardProblem #Podcast #Debate.

In this episode of The Deep Dive, we unravel one of the most provocative claims in the UFO discourse: that the real secret isn't just extraterrestrial visitation—it's the nature of reality itself. Drawing from documented testimony, insider accounts, and theoretical physics, we explore how decades of government secrecy may be rooted not in fear of aliens, but in fear of what their existence implies about consciousness, time, and space.We begin with high-level institutional knowledge. From General Arthur Exon's assertion that the Roswell crash was immediately recognized as extraterrestrial, to Eisenhower's alleged 1954 disappearance for a secret meeting at Edwards Air Force Base, the evidence suggests presidents and generals have long been aware—and complicit in cover-ups. Nixon reportedly showed alien bodies to comedian Jackie Gleason. Jimmy Carter, despite having seen a UFO himself, was denied access to files by CIA Director George H.W. Bush. Even Senator Barry Goldwater was refused entry to the rumored “Blue Room” at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, told the material was “above top secret.”But the story doesn't stop at politics. We follow the thread north to Canada, where Wilbert Smith, head of Project Magnet, publicly declared that flying saucers were real and piloted by ETs. Smith claimed to have handled debris from a 1952 Washington, D.C. incident—magnesium ferrite, a material harder than anything known at the time. This led researchers to a startling conclusion: the technology was so advanced, it forced a rethinking of physics itself.Enter consciousness. Smith and others began exploring ESP, telepathy, and the “hard problem” of subjective experience. Intelligence agencies even investigated automatic writing cases, such as Francis Swan's alleged contact with an entity named AFFA. The implication? That understanding UFOs might require understanding consciousness as a primary force—not a byproduct of matter, but the very ground of reality.This aligns with biocentrism, a theory suggesting that consciousness creates the universe, not the other way around. Nobel physicist Max Planck once said, “I regard consciousness as fundamental.” If true, then time, space, and even physical laws may be observer-dependent. Muon decay experiments and quantum wave collapse support this idea: reality becomes definite only when observed.So what does this mean for the UFO mystery? Abductees often report telepathic communication—clear, noise-free, and instantaneous. These beings may have mastered consciousness itself. And that's where the cover-up deepens. If millions have been abducted and governments can do nothing to stop it, disclosure would mean admitting total impotence. Worse, the social structure of these entities—hive-like, communal, lacking individuality—resembles ideological models antithetical to Western values. Revealing them might destabilize not just science, but society.Finally, we explore whether consciousness is an information field—and whether technologies like the internet, Memex, and even Google's algorithm were intuitive downloads from that field. If so, the ultimate secret may not be aliens at all. It may be the latent power of the human mind.Grant Cameron Websitewww.presidentialufo.org

Cosmic Accident or Intelligent Design: A Deep Dive into Biocentrism, Quantum Reality, and the UFO BlueprintIs the universe a random accident—or the expression of a deeper intelligence?In this episode of The Deep Dive, we explore one of the most profound questions in science and philosophy: Is consciousness woven into the fabric of reality, or is it merely a late-stage byproduct of matter?We begin by examining the staggering improbability of randomness. From the fine-tuning of over 200 physical constants to the delicate triple-alpha process that produces carbon, the numbers suggest design—not chance. Robert Lanza's “Call Me Ishmael” thought experiment drives the point home: even a short string of characters is statistically impossible to produce randomly within the universe's lifespan. So how could DNA, life, and mind arise from pure chance?Enter biocentrism. Lanza's framework proposes that consciousness is not an emergent property of matter—it's fundamental. Drawing from quantum mechanics, we explore how observation collapses probability into reality, and how space and time may be mental constructs rather than objective containers. Max Planck and Eugene Wigner's insights support this view: consciousness is the bedrock of existence.We then turn to the UFO paradox. Reports of humanoid visitors with shared genetic markers challenge Darwinian evolution. The controversial Nazca mummy DNA claims suggest 70% overlap with human DNA and 30% unknown. If true, this implies a universal blueprint or resonant field guiding biological development.Experiencers consistently describe craft that respond to thought—no controls, no joysticks. This suggests a consciousness-based technology operating non-locally. The Zendra phenomenon and instant travel reports align with biocentrism's view that space-time is illusory. Consciousness may be the true medium of travel.Finally, we explore how human consciousness can interface with this larger field. The key lies in quieting the left-brain interpreter (LBI), the analytical narrator that filters and confabulates. Remote viewing, meditation, and psychedelic states all reduce this noise, allowing deeper perception. Neurological studies by Dr. Gary Nolan reveal increased neural density in the caudate putamen of experiencers—suggesting the brain adapts to process non-local information.This episode is a journey through science, philosophy, and mystery. It challenges the materialist paradigm and invites listeners to consider a participatory cosmology—where consciousness is not an accident, but the architect.Listen now and join the conversation.Grant Cameron Website - www.presidentialufo.org

From a falling apple to the fabric of spacetime, how did humanity unravel the rulebook of the universe? This episode of The Human Odyssey takes you on a journey through the most profound revolution in the history of human thought: the story of physics. We begin in the clockwork universe of Isaac Newton, a world of certainty and predictability where the same laws governed the planets and a cannonball. For centuries, it seemed we had solved the puzzle of creation. But as the 19th century closed, cracks began to appear in this perfect edifice. We'll explore the baffling puzzles, like the "ultraviolet catastrophe" and the "photoelectric effect," that classical physics couldn't solve, setting the stage for a radical new understanding. Join us as we witness the two great upheavals of the 20th century. We'll follow Max Planck and Albert Einstein as they take the "quantum leap," revealing a bizarre subatomic world of probability and uncertainty. Then, we'll journey with Einstein again as he completely rewrites our understanding of space, time, and gravity with his theory of general relativity. Finally, we arrive at the frontier of modern physics—the quest for a unified theory, the "unfinished symphony" that seeks to connect the world of the very large with the world of the very small. This is the story of how our conception of reality was shattered and rebuilt, time and again, by humanity's relentless curiosity.

"Music connects us with something deeper. We know there's stuff around us that science cannot explain. Consciousness, for example, is hard to explain through science alone. Music seems to connect you somehow with what this other thing is. The emotional impact that music has and how it connects people together is also very profound. Music was absolutely central to Einstein too and if he got stuck in something when he was theorising, he would go away and play his violin and that would transport him into a different world and give him ideas. He likened music to science and scientific discovery. Musicians, he believed, didn't create music; they received it. I believe that as well. The music is out there and you act as an aerial/valve/funnel. Einstein believed that about scientific discovery too -- it's not like you create these theories; you receive them. So, by playing music by composers he loved -- like Bach -- who he believed received music, it put him in that frame of mind for discovery. Other great scientists like Max Planck, who were also good musicians, have said that as well. Science, music and mathematics have been woven throughout history. It's natural because, what is music? It is sound. Sound is a physical phenomenon and it's got mathematical rules.

Karen, until her untimely passing, was the Cecil A Wright Chair at the University of Toronto's Faculty of Law. A long-time friend of the Lauterpacht Centre, Karen was to have delivered the Centre's 2025 Hersch Lauterpacht Memorial Lectures.Session III Private and Foreign Relations LawProfessor Anne Peters in conversation with Dr Roxana BanuChair: Professor Campbell McLachlanProfessor Peters's talk, 'Populism, Foreign Relations Law, and global order and justice', will discuss populist foreign relations law, which was Karen Knop's last project, at the university of Helsinki and as a Max Planck fellow. This talk will make the point that ongoing transformations of the concept of law itself, of legal procedures, and of legal substance cut across the ‘levels' of governance. And neither identitarian rhetoric, nor trade wars, nor border-fences will bring back an inter-state, Westphalian (or ‘Eastfalian') order. We are living in conditions of global law (and transnational) law. Populist heads of state both deploy and defy this law (concluding populist treaties or deals such as the German-Turkish refugee agreements; denouncing treaties such as ICSID or the Paris Agreement; using their war powers to escape domestic critique; raising tariffs to please their voter-base, and so on). At the same time, domestic, local and transnational actors (ranging from cities to courts to Indigenous peoples, or philanthro-capitalists) activate all kinds of law to resist populism. Such global lawfare destabilises world order but also has a transformative potential. New legal forms (especially informal agreements), new legal processes (such as public interest litigation before the ICJ) and new legal principles (such as One Health; Rectification/reparation; and the exposure of double standards) are responding to the big challenges for global order and justice: the cultural, the social, and the ecological challenge. Dr Banu's talk, 'Foreign Affairs, Self-Determination and Private International Law', begins with the point that foreign affairs questions are often thought to lie at the very edge of private international law, perhaps in the leftover corners of the historical alignment between private and public international law. Similarly, in part on the assumption that private international law settles conflicts of laws between already established states, there wouldn't appear to be any intuitive connection between nationalist or self-determination movements and the field of private international law.This talk will show that these assumptions are mistaken. By engaging with the historical development of the field from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, the talk will show that private international law has been deeply enmeshed in major geopolitical events generally, and in nationalist and self-determination movements, in particular. This enmeshment is neither accidental, nor exclusively modern. It is the inevitable result of some of private international law's main analytical and conceptual building blocks.

Jonathan Haidt wrote the Anxious Generation to describe the reality of anxiety in our world. What frightens us most these days? How do we overcome our fears? After Jesus rose from death, his words empowered his disciples to live fearlessly. What if we lived by the red letters? Message based on Matthew 28:1-10 and Revelation 1:17-18.Quotes:John Updike: Seven Stanzas at EasterMake no mistake: if he rose at all It was as His body; If the cell's dissolution did not reverse, the molecule reknit, The amino acids rekindle, The Church will fall.It was not as the flowers, Each soft spring recurrent; It was not as His Spirit in the mouths and fuddled eyes of the Eleven apostles; It was as His flesh; ours.The same hinged thumbs and toes The same valved heart That—pierced—died, withered, paused, and then regathered Out of enduring Might New strength to enclose.Let us not mock God with metaphor, Analogy, sidestepping, transcendence, Making of the event a parable, a sign painted in the faded Credulity of earlier ages: Let us walk through the door.The stone is rolled back, not papier-mache, Not a stone in a story, But the vast rock of materiality that in the slow grinding of Time will eclipse for each of us The wide light of day.And if we have an angel at the tomb, Make it a real angel, Weighty with Max Planck's quanta, vivid with hair, opaque in The dawn light, robed in real linen Spun on a definite loom.Duane Brooks: This is what's happening in heaven, and it happens every time the people of God come together and worship him, heaven is coming to earth. And the hope is that maybe in our midst is somebody who doesn't yet know Jesus, but by the way we worship says that must be real. That must be true because we give God his worth.Japanese proverb: There are four things to be afraid of—fire, storm, earthquake, and one's father.Robert Murray McCheyne: If I knew Jesus was in the next room praying for me, I would not fear anything in the world. The distance makes no difference.  He is praying for me . Eugene Peterson: The most important question we may ask of the Bible is not:  what does this mean, but what can I obey.Thomas a Kempis: Instant obedience is the only kind of obedience there is; delayed obedience is disobedience.Duane Brooks: There are three words that could change the lives of every person we meet, every person we encounter. The words, he is risen. That changes everything. How do I know? Because it changed my life. Duane Brooks: "He is risen" changed your lives and it will change the life of every person who comes to believe it. We worship fearlessly. And the good news is because Christ is risen, we don't have to be afraid of dying, nor do we have to be afraid of speaking publicly about what Jesus has done in our lives. And this is the way the church has transformed culture for two thousand years.#worship #witness #faith #hope #courage To discover more messages of hope go to tallowood.org/sermons/.Follow us on Instagram, X, and YouTube @tallowoodbc.Follow us on FaceBook @tallowoodbaptist

Between the time the first Nobel Prize was awarded in 1901 and 1933, a total of 31 were awarded to German scientists and politicians. To name just a few, Wilhelm Röntgen (1901), Max Planck (1918), Albert Einstein (1921) and Werner Heisenberg (1932) for Physics, Emil Fischer (1902), Fritz Haber (1918), Walther Nernst (1920) and Hans Fischer (1930) for chemistry, Emil von Behring (1901), Robert Koch (1905) and Otto Warburg (1931) for medicine, Theodor Mommsen (1902), Gerhart Hauptmann (1912) and Thomas Mann (1929) for literature and Gustav Stresemann for peace. The UK and France received 17 and 15 respectively, whilst the US picked up just 6 during that same period. How could German universities rise to such dominance during the 19th and early 20th century from very humble beginnings? That is what we will look at in this episode.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comIf you wish to support the show go to: Support • History of the Germans PodcastFacebook: @HOTGPod Threads: @history_of_the_germans_podcastBluesky: @hotgpod.bsky.socialInstagram: history_of_the_germansTwitter: @germanshistoryTo make it easier for you to share the podcast, I have created separate playlists for some of the seasons that are set up as individual podcasts. they have the exact same episodes as in the History of the Germans, but they may be a helpful device for those who want to concentrate on only one season.

Nu har spår av denisovamänniskan hittats på ytterligare en plats i världen, Taiwan. Svenske nobelpristagaren Svante Pääbo var först att beskriva den. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Programmet är en repris från 21 juni 2022."Den grottan är fantastisk. Det är den enda plats i världen där vi vet att denisovaner, neandertalare och sedan moderna människor har levt. Och vi vet att de två första har träffats, för vi har hittat ben från en en individ där mamman är neandertalare och pappan denisovan."Så berättar evolutionsgenetikern Svante Pääbo om Denisova-grottan i Ryssland, som också gett namn åt den nya människotypen som han varit med och upptäckt. Men vad är då en denisovan? Ja det återstår till stor del att förstå. Det är något så fantastiskt som en typ av människa vars existens blev känd först 2010, och som alltså under en lång tid levde sida vid sida med neandertalarna och med oss moderna människor.Denisovanerna var nog ungefär lika utbredda i Asien då som neandertalarna var i Europa, menar Svante Pääbo, trots att deras benrester bara har hittats i Denisovagrottan och på ett eller ett par ställen till. Istället är det dna hos nu levande människor som är det viktigaste spåret.Det här hör vi Svante Pääbo berätta om i Vetenskapsradion På djupet, där vi också får höra om vårt genetiska arv från neandertalarna, och om vilka egenskaper som kan ha lett till att vi blev kvar på jorden och inte de.Medverkande: Svante Pääbo, direktör för avdelningen för evolutionär genetik vid Max Planck-institutet för evolutionär antropologi i Leipzig.Reporter: Björn Gunérbjorn.guner@sr.seProducent: Peter Normarkpeter.normark@sr.se

At the dawn of the 1930s, Germany is a physics powerhouse, where great minds like Albert Einstein and Max Planck have revolutionized the scientific landscape. But a talented young physicist named Trude Goldhaber struggles to make her voice heard in a male-dominated field. Trude perseveres, despite the pressures of antisemitism and misogyny all around her. Forced to work in the shadow of her scientist husband, she contributes to research and discoveries that help create the most dangerous weapon known to mankind. Later, when Trude finally makes a name for herself, she does everything in her power to lift up the young women following in her footsteps.  Thanks to a grant from the American Institute of Physics and funds from the German Foreign Office, LBI processed and digitized the approximately 19 linear feet of Trude's papers, which consist of notes, graphs and diagrams, original data, and correspondence related to her research between 1930 and 2000. Maurice Goldhaber's papers are awaiting processing. Learn more at lbi.org/goldhaber. Exile is a production of the Leo Baeck Institute, New York and Antica Productions.

Une équipe de linguistes de l'institut Max-Planck de psycholinguistique aux Pays-Bas a fait une découverte remarquable en 2013 : l'existence d'un mot véritablement universel, "hein?" (ou ses équivalents), présent dans 31 langues différentes à travers le monde. Ce qui rend cette découverte particulièrement intéressante est que ce mot ne semble pas avoir été emprunté d'une langue à une autre, mais s'être développé de manière indépendante dans diverses cultures. Pour parvenir à cette conclusion, les chercheurs ont mené une étude approfondie, analysant des conversations informelles dans des contextes très variés, allant des grandes métropoles aux villages les plus reculés. Dans certains cas, ils se sont même immergés pendant plusieurs semaines dans des communautés isolées pour observer et enregistrer des échanges spontanés. Ce mot universel partage des caractéristiques phonétiques remarquablement similaires dans toutes les langues étudiées. Il est systématiquement monosyllabique, prononcé avec une intonation interrogative, et souvent accompagné d'un léger coup de glotte. Sa fonction est également identique partout : il sert à signaler une incompréhension et à demander une clarification dans la conversation. Les chercheurs expliquent ce phénomène par ce qu'ils appellent une "convergence évolutive", concept emprunté à la biologie. Tout comme différentes espèces peuvent développer des caractéristiques similaires face à des défis environnementaux communs, les langues auraient évolué vers une solution commune pour répondre au besoin universel de gérer les incompréhensions dans les conversations. Cette découverte est d'autant plus significative qu'elle remet en question l'un des principes fondamentaux de la linguistique : l'arbitraire du signe, selon lequel il n'existe normalement pas de lien direct entre le son d'un mot et sa signification. "Hein?" semble constituer une rare exception à cette règle. Contrairement à des sons instinctifs comme les pleurs ou les gémissements, "hein?" est un mot qui s'apprend au cours du développement linguistique. Les enfants l'acquièrent en observant son usage dans les interactions sociales. Sa simplicité phonétique et sa prosodie interrogative en font un outil optimal pour réagir rapidement et clarifier une situation sans interrompre le flux naturel de la conversation. Cette découverte, récompensée par un Ig Nobel en 2013, illustre comment le langage humain peut développer des solutions universelles pour répondre à des besoins de communication fondamentaux, transcendant ainsi les barrières culturelles et linguistiques.

Humanity's understanding of the universe radically altered with the advent of quantum mechanics in the early 20th century. The theory of quantum mechanics describes how nature behaves at or below the scale of atoms, and the road to that theory was littered with seemingly insurmountable obstacles. With us to discuss the development of quantum mechanics, and the major schools of thought represented by Neils Bohr and Albert Einstein, is Jim Baggott. Today we discuss many of the key players in the development of quantum mechanics, including Bohr, Einstein, Wolfgang Pauli, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger, Max Planck, and Max Born.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, there was a problem that stumped even the best minds in physics. Eventually, one man, Max Planck, solved the problem, but his solution was one that was out of left field. While the math worked, he didn't actually believe that the mathematics explained reality. It turned out his discovery was more true than he realized and it ushed in a revolution in the world of physics that completely changed our view of nature and reality.  Learn more about the ultraviolet catastrophe and the birth of quantum mechanics on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
