Modern Science vs. Religious Dogma – Sam Harris @ Big Think
Modern Science vs. Religious Dogma – Sam Harris @ Big Think (Part 2).
Sam Harris is an author and commentator on philosophy and religion. He is the author of the bestsellers “The End of Faith”, which won the 2005 PEN Award for Nonfiction, and “Letter to A Christian Nation”. Harris’ writing has been published in over ten languages and has garnered attention from numerous media outlets and journals. Harris also makes regular appearances on television and radio to talk about the danger that religion now poses to modern societies. Harris was educated at Stanford University and is currently completing a doctorate in neuroscience.

This is a digital age, one in which a wealth of accessible information empowers you, but where is the information coming from? How accurate and unprocessed is it? How empowered do you feel debating a television screen or a newspaper? The task is to move the discussion away from talking heads and talking points, and give it back to you. That is Big Think’s mission.

Future Technology & Parallel Worlds Part 2
Sunday November 30th, 2008 Recap
Future Technology & Parallel Worlds
Art Bell returned for an in-depth conversation with scientist and author Michio Kaku, covering such topics as atomic weapons, the environment, genetic experimentation, future technology, parallel worlds, and cosmology. We’ve already passed one point of no return– the melting of the North Pole; this will change the way our descendants experience the planet, Kaku declared. The polar melting will cause more release of methane, possibly setting up a “positive feedback loop” that will further warm up tundras, he explained.
The genome of Neanderthals has been mostly mapped out, and an egg created from their DNA could potentially be gestated in a chimpanzee, in order to recreate a Neanderthal, Kaku noted, adding that no laws are in place yet to guide this kind of mind-boggling experimentation. On the technology front, he pointed out that by 2020 when Moore’s Law of computing power has reached its peak, the subsequent stagnation could lead to an economic depression. However, if quantum computing is successfully developed, it could offer a leap forward in sophistication and ability.
Nanotechnology, he said, holds out promise to revolutionize medicine. For instance, nanobots could be injected to kill individual cancer cells. Parallel universes could co-exist with us, such as in our own living rooms, said Kaku, though there is an astronomically small chance we would ever enter into one of these worlds. More and more, cosmologists and physicists are warming to the multiverse idea, and the notion that our universe may have been created by a collision with another bubble universe, he shared.

3. Technology to the Rescue: In the 1970’s and 1980’s, it became clear that bigger telescopes *can* be built, thanks to new technologies that heavily depend on the use of computer power. Efficient telescope mounts, thin and/or segmented mirrors, and active optics made it possible to construct 8-meter-class telescopes. Still newer technologies, like adaptive optics and interferometry, even deal with the blurring effects of the Earth’s atmosphere.
The “Eyes On The Skies” movie explores the many facets of the telescope – the historical development, the scientific importance, the technological breakthroughs, and also the people behind this ground-breaking invention, their triumphs and failures. It is presented by Dr. J, aka Dr. Joe Liske, a professional astronomer from the European Southern Observatory (ESO) and host of the Hubblecast video podcast.
“Eyes On The Skies” is an official movie for the International Year of Astronomy 2009 and the International Astronomical Union, produced by ESA/Hubble (the same team as behind the widely distributed movie “Hubble – 15 Years of Discovery”).
