Brother Guy Consolmagno, Monday, 2-27-17 (10.11MB; download) -- We welcomed Brother Guy Consolmagno, Director of the Vatican Observatory to the show. During our 88 minute discussion, we talked about science, religion, faith, God, astronomy, humans in space, space settlement, planetary protection, the Moon, Mars, resource utilization, space commerce, and the nature of our belief in God. As you will hear, Brother Guy is both a traditional scientist and a Jesuit who was recently made the Director of the Vatican Observatory. Among the many topics discussed were the telescopes in the Vatican observatories outside of Rome and Tucson. The telescope history was fascinating, especially when talking about the new technology for making mirrors at the University of Arizona. Dr. Brother Guy was asked about scientists and having faith in God. This was a very interesting discussion early in our interview. Another big topic was extraterrestrials and sentient life in the context of faith and religion.

Dr. Paul Spudis, Sunday, 2-26-17 (14.13MB; download) -- Welcome to this 2 hour 3 minute fascinating discussion without a break with Dr. Paul Spudis. We started with a tribute to our friend and associate Bill Mellberg who has been fighting a severe illness. Retired Moonwalker Jack Schmitt called in to also talk about Bill. Later, Bill sent us an email which I read on air. As for Paul's space discussion, first, we had lots of listener phone calls and emails. Paul covered many topics from water on the Moon, why go to the Moon, the best places to go once we are on the Moon, the Moon vs. Mars debate, the need to include lunar and cislunar work in the upcoming infrastructure bill (assuming such a bill does come to pass), cislunar development and so much more. We talked policy, geopolitics, engineering, space settlement issues, you name it. This was an impressive and comprehensive discussion which you do not want to miss. Paul responded to all listener email questions and phone calls in detail. Read the full summary at www.thespaceshow.com for this program on this date, Sunday, Feb. 26, 2017.

Nick Nielsen, Tuesday, 2-21-17 (10.57MB; download) -- We welcomed Nick Nielsen to the program to discuss the expansion of The Overview Effect to include The Homeworld Effect and The Mars Effect. Nick explained and discussed these perspectives in detail and we expanded them even further to the many different perspectives that we will gain from becoming a spacefaring culture. We talked similar perspectives from the Moon, Venus, asteroids, deep space flight, along with differences between say a government/military astronaut and a commercial or private sector astronaut. This is an interesting, different, and thought provoking discussion that greatly expands The Overview Effect perspective and impact.

Eric Lerner, Monday, 2-201-7 (9.77MB; download) -- We welcomed Eric Lerner back to the show to discuss his Focus Fusion work along with his work in alternative cosmology seeking theories and explanations for the universe that challenge The Big Bang Theory and thinking. During the first segment of our 85 minute program, we talked fusion. Not only did Eric update us on his own work, we talked about problems with fusion R&D funding, a comparison of different fusion alternatives being worked on, and the challenges yet to be overcome. In the second segment of our 85 minute program, Eric was asked about plasma cosmology, the Electric Universe theory, the need to know math and its place in theories, how to identify a totally bogus idea from a plausible but fringe theory or concept and much more.

During our one hour 47 minute program, Janet started at the beginning to share with us how Janet's Planet came to be with an amazing focus on space and science education for school age kids. She spoke about what and who inspired her, educational outreach, especially to young girls for them to do science, plus much more. We spoke about why space and science was important, how best to reach kids, teachers, and parents. One of the listener questions even asked Janet for solutions to the declining science and math literacy rates among western nations. Janet explained many of her projects, directed us to her multi-media presentation which you can see on Vimeo, https://vimeo.com/52242785.

Dr. John Brandenburg, Thursday, 2-16-17 (13.44MB; download) -- We welcomed back Dr. John Brandenburg for this 1 hour 58 minute program. The first segment focused on John's theory about Mars, nuclear explosions in its past, and the presence of specific isotopes in the Martian atmosphere supporting his theory. John opened by reading an email a Space Show listener sent him suggesting that time alone would explain the presence of the isotopes he was referencing in his theory. John explained why the listener was wrong and suggested the listener check out his references in his Sept. 2016 AIAA paper as the listener attended that talk. John also talked about him GEM Unification theory, gravity and the role of electro-magnetism (EM). He specifically referenced the EmDrive research being carried out by Eagleworks. In the second segment, he talked a bout his new science fiction book, "To Rule the Night: The UFO Wars- Book II of the Morningstar UFO Theory." He explained the trilogy to us as he has already written but not yet published Book III. John spent some time talking about how he writes science fiction, the inspiration he draws from and as you will hear toward the end of the show, the global history of the planet and humanity that he adds to his stories.
