Michael Shermer@michaelshermer·
We @Briankeating discuss far more than just aliens & UAPs! We cover the many topics in Truth: myth, religion, God, fine-tuning, why there is something rather than nothing, consciousness, free will, and how science operates to determine what we should accept as (small t) true.
Prof. Brian Keating@Briankeating

What if almost everything you've been told about UFOs, truth, free will, and even the search for God deserves a second look? In this conversation with Michael Shermer (@michaelshermer), we tackle some of the biggest questions in science and philosophy: Are aliens really here? Why do smart people believe extraordinary claims? Is free will an illusion? Can science ever answer life's deepest questions? And what happens when evidence collides with ideology? This isn't a debate about who's right. It's an exploration of how we decide what's true. If you enjoy conversations that challenge assumptions and leave you thinking long after they're over, this is one you won't want to miss. Watch the video here: youtube.com/watch?v=cR2WVO…

This breakthrough highlights how black holes sculpt cosmic evolution and proves citizen science's power; with telescopes like SKA on the horizon, expect an ORC explosion unlocking galaxy secrets. Read the full article here: sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/…

In the equatorial chaos of galaxy clusters (packing 100 trillion solar masses), relativistic jets from supermassive black holes collide with hot thermal plasma, bending and inflating these magnetized plasma bubbles—shifting theories from mergers to superwind outflows.

Astronomers have long puzzled over "odd radio circles" (ORCs)—vast, faint rings of radio emissions spanning millions of light-years, defying easy explanations like supernova remnants or black hole mergers.

Are we still talking graphs or did we shift to glyphs yet?

Sagan's dragon in my garage is invisible, so you bring thermal. It's cold-blooded. You bring flour for the footprints. It levitates. Every rescue is individually reasonable. The pattern isn't. But maybe it is the reverse: refusing to consider exotic physics is how you miss the thing. Where does the ladder stop being evasion and start being inquiry? Let me knowl in the replies

Anti-Genius ✖🧠 The FCC just approved the first orbital mirror designed to reflect sunlight onto Earth after dark. One satellite won't ruin astronomy. Fifty thousand might. Every generation inherits a night sky it assumes is permanent. It ain't. We never had to write rules protecting darkness because nobody imagined the sky itself would become commercial real estate. Civilizations leave monuments. Ours may leave advertising space where the stars used to be. Read it here: pcmag.com/news/fcc-appro…
