UAP Research or SETI - Who Finds NHI First? - with Adam Frank | Merged Podcast EP 18

Dr. Adam Frank, a leading expert on star evolution and a passionate "evangelist of science." Based at the University of Rochester, his research group utilizes advanced supercomputers to study stellar formation and demise. Today, Frank takes us on a journey into the search for technosignatures and habitability in exoplanets. Frank also teases a NASA concept that aims to use the sun as a gigantic lens for magnifying distant exoplanets. Don't miss this eye-opening discussion on the future of astrobiology and space exploration. We'll also discuss UAP and whether he believes the field merits study.    Adam Frank is an American physicist, astronomer, and writer. His scientific research has focused on computational astrophysics with an emphasis on star formation and late stages of stellar evolution. His work includes studies of exoplanet atmospheres and astrobiology. Adam's "The Little Book of Aliens" is available everywhere now.  Ryan Graves: AIAA UAP: https://www.aiaauap.org Twitter: @uncertainvector Connect with Us: Website: http://www.mergedpodcast.com Merged Point: https://www.mergedpoint.com See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

He interviewed every Senator about UFOs - What they revealed for the first time…

Matt Laslo fulfilled his mission of interviewing every single member of congress after the UAP hearings. We’ll discuss what he learned.    Based on Capitol Hill, veteran journalist Matt Laslo has been covering campaigns and every aspect of federal policy since 2006. He’s a WIRED magazine contributor, covering everything from data privacy and crypto to Big Tech and UFOs (aka UAPs). Over the years, Laslo’s also been a regular contributor with VICE News, VICE News Tonight (HBO), Rolling Stone, Raw Story, The Daily Beast and Playboy, et. His beats have included cannabis (including moderating Aspen Ideas Festival’s first-ever cannabis panel), coal, climate, oil and gas, Indian Country, gun violence, health care, mass incarceration, opioid crisis, horse racing, the intersection of music & politics, etc. At the Capitol, he operates The LCB (Laslo Congressional Bureau)—a wire service focused on serving political news deserts and assisting shrinking newsrooms nationwide. From 2010-2015, he was the political correspondent for WAMU (DC’s NPR station). While he’s been on assignment for NPR, The LCB has served 45+ local NPR Member Stations, local newspapers, alt-weeklies, He also founded Ask a Pol—an interactive Substack publication serving as everyday voters’ conduit to Congress. https://www.mattlaslo.com/ [https://www.mattlaslo.com/] @mattlaslo and @ask_a_pol (or @askpols on Insta)   Ryan Graves: AIAA UAP: https://www.aiaauap.org [https://www.aiaauap.org] Twitter: @uncertainvector Connect with Us: Website: http://www.mergedpodcast.com [http://www.mergedpodcast.com] Merged Point: https://www.mergedpoint.com [https://www.mergedpoint.com]   See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

Admiral's Hunt for UFO's Goes Underwater - with Tim Gallaudet | Merged Podcast EP 16

On this episode of the podcast, we are joined by Tim Gallaudet, CEO of Ocean STL Consulting and former Assistant Secretary of Commerce and Deputy NOAA Administrator. With a background as the Oceanographer of the Navy and a Research Associate for the Galileo Project, Tim brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the conversation. In this episode, we dive into Tim's career trajectory, his involvement with the infamous GOFAST/GIMBAL incident, and his current efforts to move the UAP (unidentified aerial phenomenon) topic forward in the underwater domain. Join us for an insightful and thought-provoking discussion with one of the leading experts in the field.   The Honorable Tim Gallaudet, PhD, Rear Admiral, U.S. Navy (ret) is a career oceanographer and technology consultant. Formerly, he served as the acting Undersecretary and Assistant Secretary of Commerce, acting and Deputy Administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and Oceanographer of the Navy. Currently, Gallaudet serves as a strategic advisor and board member for several startups, nonprofits, and research institutions in the ocean, weather, environment, and space sectors. Gallaudet has been interested in UAP since he was young, but his experience as the Superintendent of the U.S. Naval Observatory gave him a greater appreciation for their scientific validity.  He now is a research affiliate for Harvard University’s Galileo Project, an Advisory Board member for Americans for Safe Aerospace, and will provide a keynote address at the Anomalous Aerospace Phenomena Conference hosted by the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies on July 30.   Ryan Graves AIAA UAP: https://www.aiaauap.org [https://www.aiaauap.org] Twitter: @uncertainvector Connect with Us Website: http://www.mergedpodcast.com [http://www.mergedpodcast.com] Merged Point: https://www.mergedpoint.com [https://www.mergedpoint.com]       See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
