Searches for Superluminality, Aliens, and Impossible Knowledge with Dr. Robert Nemiroff

Can anything go faster than the speed of light?

Scientific Searches for Aliens, Superluminality, and Impossible Knowledge are all subjects that John Michael Godier discusses with Dr. Robert Nemiroff a professor of physics at Michigan Tech. Dr. Nemiroff is hosting the 100th anniversary of the great debate between Harlow Sapley and Herber Curtis with a new question, how will humanity first discover extraterrestrial life? Other discussion subjects include, Is time travel to the past possible? One way to answer that is by searching the internet for evidence of time travelers.

If you could travel into the past, would you tell people anything from the future? If so, what?

I was listening to this on my headphones and suddenly my kitchen was clean. Great discussion.

I love you guys! I am the pastor of the church that videoed astro physict Dr. BOUW and placed it on line!

[garryjones]

John your shows are so good now that I'm staying up late at night more often enjoying every show! I keep saying it Sir you may be at this point THE BEST science interviewer alive! Thanks for you hard work and huge enthusiasm! I always keep coming back for more!

Fun Fact, in 1997 a screenplay was anonymously submitted to Warner Brothers Studios, it was a Disaster movie called 2020: The Year the Shit hit the Fan, it involved a global pandemic originating out of China, a horribly botched response to the pandemic which began a domino effect of society falling apart mainly through corruption and sheer incompetence at every level of government, had people attacking each other over toilet paper, stores and banks demanding customers wear face masks to be allowed to enter, the entire economy was just "stopped" and the President of the United States was a Reality TV star with dementia who was telling people to inject themselves with bleach to avoid getting sick as riots and protests broke out in every major city while everyone else was stuck in their homes with glass rectangles glued to their faces giving them regular dopamine hits. While it remains the most solid evidence of a time traveler trying to warn us of what was coming, no one ever heard of it because it was considered too ridiculous, overcomplicated, and nonsensical. And besides, Y2K was gonna be the end of the world anyways.

Really glad I found this podcast. Everything on here is so fascinating.

How to get the best wallpapers on the Internet: just randomly press PrintScreen on just about any second of any Event Horizon video.
What a wonderful episode!

It's refreshing to hear a scholar say whether he is learned in a certain topic or not, sticking to what he knows and studied

[eukrazia]

john your videos help me more than i can say.. it relaxes me, grounds me, and inspires me. learning about science and space has been helping me through this quarantine and my depression. thank you endlessly for your program 🥺💕

Am I the only one that likes the video before the video starts? I've never disliked any of John's videos, they are so interesting and very well done! I could listen to them all day :)

The first rule of time travel, is: 'NEVER tell anyone you're a time traveler, or otherwise allow it to be found out.'
Stephen Hawking once advertised and threw a party for time travelers, to see if anyone would show up to prove, or disprove the possibility of time travel.

But he never could have checked with everyone who passed by on the street at the appointed hour, or who may have sat in nearby pubs, possibly drinking a quiet toast to a man they dare not meet and for a party they could not attend...

"Nothing can fly faster than the speed of light."
I heard that humans can't fly no matter how fast the flap their arms and yet ...

What's more anthropocentric? What makes us feel smaller and more alienated? Believing that we're alone in the Universe, or believing that the Universe is inclined towards things like us (life)? What's more like believing we're the center of the Universe? What makes the Universe "larger" and more intimidating? Which concept is more alien to our minds? I'm not at all sure that "the Universe is teeming with life" is the braver, less emotional, more rational and more open-minded belief. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the belief we have the greater emotional resistance to is that we're alone. That's certainly the case for me.

Good discussion here. I also appreciate it when a researcher does not hesitate to state where their expertise ends. I do not believe the public, in general, take note of this enough.

I was a Propulsion Engineer for the NASA Sounding Rocket Program at Wallops Island in Virginia for 10 years. I can't help wondering if the Aurora photo was taken by a technician in the program while I was there. We traveled to Norway quite often to launch science missions. Almost caused WW3 in the 90s due to the Russians not be notified lol. I moved on to target work 2 years ago and now do woodwork lol. I often think about going back to do that again. Life is amazing and my road has been very interesting. I think so anyway and that is what is important :)

[tycarlisle]

Really cool discussion! Thanks both of you!!

“We’re in the golden age of Solar System exploration.” Love the talk. Please support advanced nuclear energy, we’ll need it to produce thermo-electric nuclear batteries like what was used to power Voyager. We’re almost out of material (plutonium isotope). *See Kirk Sorensen thorium videos*

This guy reminds me of a friend of my brother, who always had to insist that "what ifs" are somehow evidence of "what is". Good luck with that, Bob. I'll keep putting my money on Einstein.

[stricknine]

Great interview! I really enjoyed the conversation thanks for the episode.

19:00 It's easy to travel into the future: Just wait. I've been traveling into the future for 50 years.
