Quantum Computers and Parallel Universes

Posted by in categories: computing, cosmology, quantum physics

We have a highly respected Theoretical Physicist and a pioneer of Quantum Computing, along with the Founder of one of the leading quantum computer companies, D-Wave (whose clients include Google and NASA), talking about parallel universes. Here is a key that I discovered. They are not talking about parallel universes as a theory but as something factual that exists.


An amazing article on the ability of a Quantum Computer to exploit parallel universes. This article is a MUST READ!

Are We Building Artificial Brains And Uploading Minds To The Cloud Right Now?

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, supercomputing

https://youtube.com/watch?v=amwyBmWxESA

When people post their emotional responses to social media and through their free email account(s), they are loading their human personal emotional responses, judgments, and biases into a large computer and cloud database? Everything we post and respond to is data somewhere. The truth is, hundreds of millions of people around the planet do this every day, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.


Are we uploading our brains to a cloud on a supercomputer and evolving into an artificially intelligent machine? This question and more…

Small nuclear fusion space and energy systems using high efficiency RF heating

Posted by in category: space

Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory has two NASA grants.

Princeton satellite systems and Princeton Plasma Physics Lab will work on the two projects. Phase I STTRs of $125,000 each will run for one year, at which point we have the opportunity to propose Phase II work up to $750,000.

Ml4SETI Hackathon and Code Challenge

Posted by in categories: alien life, information science

The SETI Institute is hosting a global, public hackathon and code challenge to find a robust signal classification algorithm for use in our mission to find E.T. radio communication.

The Data Set

Each night, the SETI Institute observes signals across the radio frequency spectrum using the Allen Telescope Array (ATA). The signal detection system at the ATA searches for narrow-band radio signals coming directly from particular targets in the sky.

Will Mini Fusion Rockets Provide Spaceflight’s Next Big Leap?

Posted by in categories: materials, space travel

Fusion-powered rockets that are only the size of a few refrigerators could one day help propel spacecraft at high speeds to nearby planets or even other stars, a NASA-funded spaceflight company says.

Another use for such fusion rockets is to deflect asteroids that might strike Earth and to build manned bases on the moon and Mars, the researchers say.

Rockets fly by hurling materials known as propellants away from them. Conventional rockets that rely on chemical reactions are not very efficient when it comes to how much thrust they generate, given the amount of propellant they carry, which has led rocket scientists to explore a variety of alternatives over the years.

Immortality Our Future? Technology is our Fountain of Youth with Liz Parrish

Posted by in categories: futurism, life extension

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoRTTOzkkN0&feature=share

Liz Parish joins the show to discuss her company’s efforts to reverse aging. Her aging trials have been famously conducted on her personally resulting in 20 year reversals on Telomere cell lengths, muscle mass, and other factors. We discuss the real possibility that humans could live to be over 1000 years old in our lifetimes. We also discuss the ethical issues that arise from the flood of new technologies that will soon be on the market.
