Some fun space news this week, as we have the first passenger to fly on Virgin Galactic. True, Beth Moses works for the company but still, she wasn’t a pilot or co-pilot, but as astronaut instructor, will be the guide for the first paying passengers about what to expect on their first flight out of the Earth’s atmosphere. We have Dr. Bruce Damer tell us what’s happening with Hayabusa2, the Japanese flight to an asteroid, and it’s efforts to capture some dust and bring it back to Earth for study.  Dr. Bruce tells us why this is exciting and important.

And we finish the show with San Lorenzo Valley Middle School science teacher Rachel Hager hosting a group of SLV students at our KSCO studios, where we discuss with them their efforts to test the San Lorenzo River for potential toxins and pollution.  Our young citizen scientists give us a great report and we look forward to sharing it with you! Enjoy.

This show is unique in that Mrs. Future is leading with stories and Dr. Future is responding with comments and queries, kind of the opposite of how the show usually plays.  Why? Because Dr. Future has a touch of laryngitis, and simply has to cut down on the verbiage to preserve his fragile voice.   

Lots of cool Future News this week, including the first Israeli Lunar Lander, AI creating amazing fakes, and Bobby Wilder on the latest in Alzheimer’s research.  Enjoy!

Our Milky Way is Warped, Sasha's Science Soiree, Cellular Senescence, Tesla patents Liberated for All, Acting Coach Stan Grindstaff on What is Erotic?, Massive Ongoing Insectoid Extinction, Eco-Villages to the Rescue

Listen Now The Dr. Future Show 2.12.2019

It looks like we have a new path to explore the science of aging with the control of senescent cells, cells that were supposed to die but carry on like zombies, damaging the living around them.  Meanwhile insects are dying off at a massive rate, 2.5% of their mass every year, and its about time we take a closer look at that. Perhaps the recent observations of our galaxy being warped has something to do with this..not..

On a happier note, we had acting coach Stan Grindstaff stop by the studio to share with us his experiences in coaching this year’s crop of What is Erotic? performers, a show that keeps getting better with time. Enjoy!

Listen Now to The Dr. Future Show 2.05.2019

What’s up with the North Pole these days? It seems to be speeding up, moving it’s location about 31 miles a year of late. We take a closer look, as well as the strange days of Saturn and why Tesla’s just might be the best autonomous cars on the road.

And this week marks the release of volumes 3 and 4 of Hip Santa Cruz, edited by Dr. Ralph Abraham with the assistance of many, including T. Mike Walker, who join’s Ralph in our studio. These latest volumes take us into first person accounts of the awakening of Santa Cruz culture of the 1970’s and 80’s, the aftermath of the miracle that happened in the 1960’s, tracing the rise of women’s rights, home birthing, the evolution of theater, music, education, ecology and a more profound connection with Nature. Ralph and T. Mike arrived early so we spent a little more time than usual with our guests this week. Enjoy!

Bonus - Watch a segment with Ralph Abraham and T. Mike Walker in 360 video with illustrations!
