This week we discuss geopolitical shifts, emerging technologies, and astronomical discoveries. A significant portion focuses on the humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, highlighting how foreign powers and authoritarian regimes have impacted the nation’s resources and democracy.
Our big interview this week is with the inspiring Kelly Durkin, a professional media creator pivoting to becoming a drone specialist. The conversation explores innovative drone applications, with Kelly explaining their use in 3D mapping, agriculture, search-and-rescue operations, to spotting land mines. We also delve into how drones are affecting our privacy and what is personal air space.
Additionally, we touch upon Elon Musk’s influence on politics, SpaceX’s satellite reconfigurations, and the potential effects of solar cycles on the atmosphere. The show concludes with the discovery of Cloud 9, an ancient relic hydrogen cloud in deep space from the early Universe. Enjoy!
