In this episode, Julian Dorey sits down with an astrophysicist to break down some of the biggest questions in modern science—from mysterious signals in space to the possibility of other universes.
The conversation dives into the WOW! Signal, one of the most famous unexplained radio signals ever detected, and what it could mean for the search for intelligent life. They also explore NASA’s current and future missions, including what scientists are learning about the Moon and distant planetary systems like TRAPPIST-1.
From there, the discussion expands into multiple moons and planetary systems, the theory of the multiverse and cosmic inflation, and ideas from Stephen Hawking on wormholes and the nature of reality.
They also touch on how science is funded, the challenges researchers face, and why some of the most important discoveries may still be ahead of us.
This episode breaks down complex ideas in a simple, engaging way—covering space, physics, and the biggest unanswered questions about our universe.
