Lot of interesting news this week, during the Government shutdown..(Gee, I wonder if that’s related.) We explore new uses for that magical Graphene, an upcoming Indian probe to Mars, printing Metal with 3D printers, and a new theory of human memory that may just change the way you think about thinking about memory! Err..yes..

A very popular show today with many calls, where we tap the group mind on what’s next with government, and how things could be made better. Of course, a serious upgrading of the human brain and alien intervention couldn’t hurt..

Despite the government shutdown, there is a lot of interesting news this week for us to peruse.  We had a rather spirited conversation this week on cosomologist Steven Hawkings musings loading one’s brain into a computer, a worthy candidate for such a procedure if there ever was one!

And then there is Mars, which apparently once had a lot of water (as in this pic), and now has been shown to have  2% water in it’s rocks, an abundance of the liquid, enough to not just create drink for biological life forms, but enough to create fuel for rockets, turbines, and other essential technologies for colonization.  

Geologist Richard Ely also suggested that there was enough water to create a carbon dioxide atmosphere for the planet, which could warm the place a bit, making it more palatable for ours and other mammalian species.  Sure, you can’t breathe CO2, but its good for plants and other life forms…

Fukushima Update with Richard A. Wullaert, Ph.D.

Listen Now to Fukushima update with Dr. Wullaert

The Fukushima nuclear disaster is over two years old now, and we keep hearing more and more horror stories.  We’ve heard that massive numbers of fish contaminated, radioactive clouds heading our way, Tsunami debris hitting our shores is hot, etc., etc..  So, we thought it was a good time for a reality check on this issue, see what the situation is and what the health risks are currently.

Dr. Wullaert has over 40 years experience in the nuclear energy world, including being principal investigator and project manager for large programs concerned with the mechanical properties/fracture toughness of reactor materials and the structural integrity of reactor components. He spent a lot of his time thinking about and evaluation the work being done at Fukushima to contain the radiation.  

In our interview he shares with us what he knows about the repairs on the reactor and the potential health risks of the disaster.
