Space: The Final Frontier. Exploring space developments and theorizing about how humans fit into the universe.

On duality.
Here and there. Nowhere and everywhere. Yin & yang. Good and bad. Light and dark. Virtuous and evil. Sadness and happiness. Lack and abundance. Fun and boredom. One mind. Different wirings within. A void. Abyss. As if you vanished into the ether. But there you live again. Astral projection into the cosmos. Creation. Destruction. Imagination. A whole new world. One made of infinite possibilities. Shapes. Colours. Rainbows and unicorns. Worries fading away. Transcendence. Yin. Finding yourself without ever being within yourself. Silence. Stillness. Inner peace. Breaking through all thoughts and illusions. Satori. Enlightenment.

Project Hail Mary is a fucking masterpiece
Ok, listen. If you have not read this book by Andy Weir, notable author of the stellar novel The Martian, stop reading right now. The Martian was incredible in its own right, absolutely, and it brought me to this novel which I will forever be grateful, but I'd rather trek over hot coals than ruin the magic of Project Hail Mary.

TIME TRAVEL: The RACE IS ON WITH ELON!
As you can imagine, I was rather surprised to learn that one of the Elon Musk fanboy groups, in this case, Elon Musk Evolution, issued a veiled challenge to me on Youtube. Now, I already have a challenge in the works - that I'll get time travel to the past to work in order to evacuate people from here to the distant past in an operation we call Earth:12KB4 before Elon can get people to the planet Mars. I expect that we'll be able to achieve the required breakthrough next year. Recently, Musk announced he was delaying a SpaceX launch to Mars back to 2029. I have Elon in a strategic "check" because as long as I have a breakthrough before 2029, he loses and he can't deny our competition because that would mean he's not going try to get Mars. This proves that he is not focused on the threats to the future that he claimed to be.

The Universe Through A Child’s Eyes
There is something about parenthood that gives us a sense of history and a deeply rooted desire to send on into the next generation the great things we have discovered about life. And part of that is the desire to instill in our children the love of science, of learning and particularly the love of nature.

ARTEMIS I ON ITS WAY TO THE MOON
Like every kid my age, I built a scale model of the Saturn V rocket back in the early 70s. We were all glued to our television sets as NASA sent nine crewed missions to the moon in those years.

The Magnificent seven Gulf Sovereign Wealth Funds are going on the offensive
As already witnessed after the 2008 financial crisis, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Sovereign Wealth Funds (SWFs) became more assertive during times of financial and economic difficulties. Their role has become more critical in stabilizing the international financial system during and after the recent financial crisis. Gulf SWF invested over 50 billion dollars to support banks and financial institutions in 2008, reducing the impact of the crisis, while propping up the US dollar value. A few of the companies the Gulf countries invested in during the crisis were global lenders Citigroup, Barclay, and sports assets Manchester City football team.

DARK ENERGY MEASURED MORE PRECISELY THAN EVER
Attending the University of Toronto doesn’t make you an academic superstar. I’m living proof of that. Even so, as Canada’s top-ranked university, spending time at U of T does give you the privilege of hanging out with a few of them. I had several eminent professors there.

New Moon in Scorpio (October 2022)
The moon will find itself at the start of it’s new rotation in fixed, watery Scorpio on the 25th of this month. This moon is fixed, which means this is the new moon that lands in the middle of the fall season. In addition to lending it’s energy to the Scorpio lunar cycle, any intentions and energies that are prominent during this lunar transit will probably turn out to be reoccurring throughout the season of change.

String Theory - The Theory Of Everything
Where do we come from and where does the world come from? What is the world made of? We are privileged to live in an age where we have come close enough to some of the answers. String theory is our latest attempt to answer the last of these questions - the "Theory of Everything".

Full Moon in Aries (October 2022)
The moon will be making it’s first opposition to the sun for the 2022 fall season this week. On the 9th, the moon will find itself at the midpoint of it’s cycle in cardinal, airy Libra. Anytime the moon makes this lunar-solar aspect, we have a full moon. The entirety of the moon being illuminated by the sun is where the “full” part comes from. Speaking to energy, the full moon in every lunar cycle marks a period of clarity, release, cultivation, and often, heightened intuition and emotions. This full moon will be in the sign of the ram, which is ruled by Mars. It is also associated with the first house (1H) in astrology, which makes this a great time to focus on our individual needs, desires, and goals.
