Lost Superpower: Who Really Ran the Bronze Age? - SOLO LIVE! (DemystifySci +425)

Something vast stirs beneath the Bronze Age world, a mercantile civilization moving tin and copper across impossible distances long before Greece or Rome drew their first breath. For our third livestream, we dive into Gavin Menzies' "Lost Empire of Atlantis." Bronze was the high technology of its age and its components came from the far corners of the known world, which means someone was organizing that, someone was running something history has not yet revealed in full.Pre-order our upcoming book, Paradox Lost: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show#BronzeAge #Minoans #AncientHistory #BronzeAgeCollapse #MaritimeHistory #AncientCivilizations #AncientTrade #LostCivilizations #HistoryPodcast #AncientWorld MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

Prehistoric Origin of the Zodiac? – Hugh Evans, DemystifySci +424

Hugh Evans walks us across two thousand square miles of North Wales where the zodiac lives in the land itself, constellations pressed into mountains and rivers and place names older than Babylon ever dreamed of writing down. Before Ptolemy standardized the sky for empire, before Mesopotamia carved its tablets, someone in Gwynedd, Wales looked up and then etched the traces of the heavens into the Earth. Hugh helps us trace the thread of early celestial awareness from Göbekli Tepe to Northern Wales, by way of the tin routes of the Bronze Age, and the star that's missing from the Pleiades.Hugh's website: https://originofthezodiac.com/Hugh's Books: https://amzn.to/43alekUPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADOX LOST PRE-SALE: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go! 00:05:01 Time as a Tool of Power00:14:06 Mythology as Memory System00:19:00 Welsh Landscape as Star Map00:26:42 Ptolemy, Babylon, and Zodiac Origins00:39:10 Proto-Constellations and Paleolithic Star Lore00:46:53 Place Names, Churches, and Encoded Astronomy01:00:13 Discovering the Gwynedd Star Map01:12:09 Göbekli Tepe, Ancient Metrology, and Shared Systems01:31:26 Bronze Age Trade and Maritime Civilization01:49:43 Civilization as Memetic Legacy02:08:08 Three Celestial Rings as Cultural Framework#zodiac #starmap #wales #ancientastronomy #neolithic #constellations #ancientcivilization #mythology #cosmology #bronzeage MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

Is Proof In Physics Even Possible? - James Ellias, DemystifySci +423

We sit down with James Ellias of Inductica to ask whether physics can ever truly prove anything. James pulls the inductive method out of the margins and holds it up against a century of guess-and-check, and together we trace the line from Newton's bucket to the cosmic microwave background so that we can ask where confidence becomes dogma and where models start passing for truth. Bodies, waves, ether, entities, the categories blur the moment you press hard enough, and the foundations of physics start to feel less like bedrock and more like habit. This is a conversation about what it means to be certain, and wether or not physics can ever claim such conviction for itself.

Does Flowing Space Reform Relativity? - Dr. Henry Lindner, DemystifySci +422

Henry Lindner walks into the cathedral of general relativity and asks why no one can hear the pipes, flowing space as reformation of Einstein's gravity, where the medium returns and the math bows down to something almost physical, almost true. We trace the long exile of substance from physics, from Newton's absolute space through the ether wars to Mach's ghost whispering in Einstein's ear that nothing real needs to exist at all. But a simplification is not an explanation, and gravity still has no mechanism, no cause, no beating heart beneath the geometry, only equations where a theory should be. This is the Keplerian step: cleaner orbits, better math, and the Darwinian question still howling unanswered in the dark.

The End of the Quantum Age: Another Look at Paradox Lost (DemystifySci +421)

We're back for a second livestream! Again, we'll be reading from Paradox Lost: The Material Principles of Natural Philosophy. This time, though, we're going through the very end of the book, and laying out what we think our materials science approach to fundamental physics can let us accomplish. It seems wild to say, but nothing less than the future of civilization hangs in the balance.
