Future Now - The Glassy Water of Luna, The AI Genie is Bottle Free, Utopias Worth Considering, Big Solar Events, 1000 km Tesla Batteries

Listen to Future Now 3.28.2023

Early scientists thought the dark stretches of the moon might be oceans, called ‘marias,’ latin for sea.  Well, it turns out there is a lot of water on the lunar surface, not as oceans but stored in billions of glass beads strewn across the surface of the moon, 300 billion tons, according to one estimate, and relatively easy to harvest!

We look at the latest AI insights this week and gear up for an experiment with none other than Billy Sunshine and “Blows Against the Empire.” And if the AI’s can help make our dreams come true, what utopian world would be to our liking? We look a couple of famous Utopias, H.G. Well’s “A Modern Utopia,” and Robert A. Heinlein’s “For Us, The Living.”

There is also a lot of solar activity happening in the next weeks and months and Bobby outlines some preparations for particle bombardment you may wish to consider.  If your phone starts acting crazy, try to tune into this episode before it fritzes out. 

And there is really  a battery breakthrough happening, to be released with new Teslas later this year, batteries that can last a thousand kilometers, and charge faster! The CATL batteries may soon be in many other EV’s as well. Fasten your seatbelts and ENJOY the ride!

In the second hour, we bring you closer to home with in studio guests Tony and Celia Becker, Celtic historians, producers of the website AmeriCeltic, and hosts to what promises to be a great St. Paddy’s Day party in San Jose this year. We also have the production manager of the event on the phone, none other than Mark Hager, otherwise known as “Mr. Past,” to Dr. Future fans of years gone by. He adds his quips to to our fast paced conversation on Celtic history and Sunday’s epic event. Enjoy!

What can we do when our personal security cameras, web-enabled refrigerators and coffepots are used to attack others as part of a coordinated botnet hoard?  Bobby Wilder calls in to help us sort this one out. 

Looking to collaborate with others on projects that are meaningful to you?  Soon you will be able to do so on WeCo, a new social network designed to help faciliate such actions, launching November 8th in test mode. We chat with Simon Swerdlow, an Belurisian Internet Entrepreneur in Florida to find out more about his network.

We then delve into a G-3 Class Solar storm unfolding now, more details of Elon Musk’s Martian colonization plans, take a couple of calls regarding a recent interview with Ringo Starr regarding the alleged substitution replacement of Paul McCartney in the 1960’s, and new research into how small lies become big ones. Enjoy!
