Exploration
The "Exploration" radio show is an hour-long science program heard nationally. Exploration covers the world of science, war and peace, and the environment. The show has commentary and interviews with top scientists and environmentalists.
On Explorations this week Dr. Kaku’s first guest is Fulvio Melia, an Italian-American astrophysicist, cosmologist and author. He is professor at the University of Arizona. He is the author of The Black Hole at the Center of our Galaxy. In this elegantly written, nontechnical account of the most enigmatic astronomical object yet observed, the black hole, Fulvio Melia captures all the excitement of the growing realization that we are on the verge of actually seeing this exotic object within the next few years.
In the second part of the hour, Dr. Kaku speaks about time machines with Dr. Richard Gott, a professor of astrophysical sciences at Princeton University. He is known for his work on time travel and the Doomsday argument. He has his own blue print for a time machine.
Science is the engine of society.
Could Einstein have possibly anticipated directly testing the most captivating prediction of general relativity, that there exist isolated pockets of spacetime shielded completely from our own?
