Into the Impossible With Brian Keating

• Eric Weinstein “You’re being lied to!” with Avi Loeb

  Please join my mailing list here 👉 https://briankeating.com/list to win a meteorite 💥 Are tech billionaires and politicians waging a war on science? Why is there a growing distrust in science? And has theoretical physics been intentionally sidelined to limit major breakthroughs?  Here today to discuss the rise of anti-science are Avi Loeb and Eric Weinstein!  Avi Loeb is a leading astrophysicist, professor at Harvard University, director of the Galileo Project, and founding director of Harvard’s Black Hole Initiative. Known as the alien hunter, he became famous for his bold and sometimes controversial theories about UFOs and extraterrestrial intelligence.  Eric Weinstein is an investor, financial executive and host of The Portal. Though not an academic physicist, he proposed a unified theory of physics in 2013. He and his brother Bret Weinstein coined the term Intellectual Dark Web to refer to an informal group of pundits. Eric is a vocal critic of modern academic hierarchies and advocates for advances in scientific theory over an emphasis on experimental results. — Key Takeaways:  00:00:00 Intro 00:00:29 The rise of anti-science in the US government  00:24:38 Is AI training us?  00:28:13 Is Oumuamua an object from another civilization?  00:32:20 Fighting against the big 10 in physics  00:42:32 The future of academia  00:48:13 Immigrants in academia  00:59:12 Lack of curiosity  01:09:14 Geometric unity and grand unification  01:14:44 Shelter Island III  01:24:00 Outro  — Additional resources:  ➡️ Resources: 🛸 Galileo Project: https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/galileo  🎙️ The Portal with Eric Weinstein: https://ericweinstein.org/ ➡️ Follow me on your fav platforms: ✖️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DrBrianKeating  🔔 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DrBrianKeating?sub_confirmation=1  📝 Join my mailing list: https://briankeating.com/list  ✍️ Check out my blog: https://briankeating.com/cosmic-musings/  🎙️ Follow my podcast: https://briankeating.com/podcast  — Into the Impossible with Brian Keating is a podcast dedicated to all those who want to explore the universe within and beyond the known.

• Harvard Professor Avi Loeb Weighs in on Life Beyond Earth

  Is humanity on the brink of a cosmic breakthrough—or just chasing shadows? Harvard’s Avi Loeb joins me for a mind-bending romp through the cosmos, UFOs, academia and the future of physics. Avi kicks off this mind-bending Into the Impossible episode, diving deep into his Galileo Project and the hunt for alien tech. From Oumuamua’s eerie drift to UAPs defying physics, Avi argues we’re not alone—and the evidence might already be here. Are we ready to face what’s out there? Together, we wrestle academia’s chokehold—NSA, DNI, CIA and FBI meets Avi’s Oumuamua data. Is this Einstein’s endgame—aliens or bust? Buckle up for a clash of cosmic stakes, contrarian rants, and big questions. Stay tuned for Eric Weinstein and Avi's segment coming soon on The INTO THE IMPOSSIBLE Podcast.

Some believe these forces could be caused by an undiscovered ninth planet—but if Planet 9 is real, why haven’t we found it yet? And if it doesn’t exist, what else could be shaping the outer edge of our solar system? Here today to explore this issue and reveal extraordinary new evidence of Planet 9, is none other than Konstantin Batygin, one of the world’s foremost experts in this field. A professor at Caltech, Konstantin specializes in planetary astrophysics, the formation and evolution of the solar system, orbital dynamics, exoplanet behavior, and the physics of planetary interiors and atmospheres. In this episode, he not only breaks down the latest evidence for Planet Nine but also shares insights from his research on Jupiter’s magnetic field. Plus, Konstantin gave us exclusive permission to feature his lecture on these topics—an unmissable opportunity to learn from one of the best in the field! — Key Takeaways:  00:00:00 Audio essay 00:03:08 What is Planet 9 and why it matters 00:12:47 Perihelion distribution dynamics 00:14:17 The most unstable component of the Kuiper Belt 00:16:46 Why is it so hard to prove Planet 9?  00:20:29 The Three-Body Problem  00:26:57 Rubin Observatory and the search for TNOs  00:30:42 Konstantin’s lecture on Planet 9  00:43:32 The importance of Jupiter 00:52:41 The role of entropy on planetary formation  00:56:04 Konstantin’s lecture on Jupiter 01:37:39 Outro  — Additional resources:  ➡️ Learn more about Konstantin Batygin: 💻 Website: https://www.konstantinbatygin.com/  📚 Publications: https://www.konstantinbatygin.com/publications ➡️ Follow me on your fav platforms: ✖️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/DrBrianKeating  🔔 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/DrBrianKeating?sub_confirmation=1  📝 Join my mailing list: https://briankeating.com/list  ✍️ Check out my blog: https://briankeating.com/cosmic-musings/  🎙️ Follow my podcast: https://briankeating.com/podcast  — Into the Impossible with Brian Keating is a podcast dedicated to all those who want to explore the universe within and beyond the known.
