Genetic editing has advanced by leaps and bounds in the last decade, but many are worried that it may lead to something terrible – a new kind of eugenics. Do the potential benefits outweigh the risk? Let’s take a look.
Quantum physics is dominated by the idea that quantum objects remain in superposition until thy are measured, which causes its wave function to collapse.
But there is another interpretation of quantum mechanics, one with mind-blowing implications about the universe and our lives. It’s the many worlds interpretation, and some believe it imbues us with a kind of immortality.
A recent paper has made some waves theorizing a way to generate wind energy with no moving parts. I spoke with the author of the paper and break down how it works, with a bit of a reality check.
I recently talked about some of the most habitable exoplanets which unfortunately we’ll never be able to reach because our technology can’t do it. But there are some very interesting concepts being developed that could change all that – if they work.
The number of known exoplanets seems to grow every day. Most of them are worlds completely unlike our own. But some get pretty close to something resembling home – and may someday become exactly that.
Spiros Michalakis is the Caltech quantum physicist who served as the science advisor on Bill & Ted: Face The Music and he was kind enough to sit down and chat about quantum physics, the nature of time, and the brilliant minds behind Bill & Ted.
