For all you Astronomers, Quantum Theorists, Intelligent Design advocates or Not, and all around curious humans out there. And I hope you haven't seen it! Just saw this movie called ( VOYAGER ) made by ( Majestic Movies ) Synopsis: An obsessive astronomer and a curious artist form an unlikely bond which leads them to a profound, scientific discovery. https://lnkd.in/erBUzRRQ

Artificial intelligence' assessment and conclusion on how world leaders would most likely behave should an alien species decide to visit planet earth. What do you think would they cooperate with each other in the best interests of humanity, or would their past selfish actions be an example of how they would likely behave?

At 25:00 in to around 26:20 watch for the aircraft crews accounts. Where the #CTPcraft 'phases out' and 'dematerializes' for those that have been following CTP for awhile now - yes... C-energy Frequency Modulation (CeFM) is 'how' FTL space travel is achieved. CeFM is NOT #warpdrive or based on known physics. UFOs: Seeing Is Believing (2005) - ABC Documentary "Seeing is Believing"? Not for us. Not for #deeptechstartup 'CTP'. Understanding them #UFOs/#UAPs (or #CTPcraft by name) and the CTPSci Sciences involved such craft are based on - are much more important. This is 'why' CTP leads us to #deepspace travel. 'Belief' is irrelevant when one knows CTPSci Principles #CTPcraft are based on.

Is AGI’s future Symbiotic or Parasitic regarding humanity? I’ve just finished watching Venom on 4seven (a UK TV channel) right now, albeit via a Swiss international streaming channel (Zattoo). See… https://lnkd.in/eeDkpF3Q It’s plot is about a powerful (non-human) intelligence that a #TESCREAL ethically challenged space-tech industrialist thinks can be symbiotic with humanity, and not parasitic (as if a more powerful entity can be controlled by a lesser one). It doesn’t end in the intelligent life form species eating all human life, though it’s species intention was to be a dominant inter-planetary life form. Hmmm?! PS: poor Neanderthal’s, our Homo Sapiens ancestors, they had a sad end (so say some)… https://lnkd.in/e8UhNNbh. Still many of us have Neanderthal DNA (and other hominid species for that matter)… https://lnkd.in/eidavA_6. But, somehow, I think that wasn’t their hoped for utopian future. 😢

Long form maybe "dead' according to YouTube and today's youth, but please have a look at this full fledge documentary that I shot and edited for Obsidian Entertainment #Documentary https://lnkd.in/gEbpxQT3

We are normally used to watch war movies from a historical perspective, about wars that are well in the past, wars that are over, dark moments in history that we as a civilisation tried to learn from and work towards laws and institutions that would prevent new ones from erupting. Last night, at the #oscars2024 awards, two war films took the prize home and one cannot but reflect on the stories behind them, stories that relate very much to the world we live in today. On one hand #Oppenheimer, the man behind the invention of the nuclear bomb, whose threat hangs over our heads every time the collective West voices support for Ukraine. On the other hand, 20 Days in #Mariupol, a story about a very much current war, a war that is happening every day and every night on our continent. This documentary is not like the ones we watch on Netflix, it's not about a moment in time far away from our present days, it's about now, it's about the present and it's about an ongoing war that should've never have happened. Not even 10 years ago, another film about Ukraine was nominated for best documentary award in the Oscars. Winter on Fire - the documentary about #Majdan and the violent and inhumane pushback against peaceful protesters, mainly students, who were defending their European future against Kremlin tentacles. With the upcoming elections in Russia, with the very predictable victory of Putin that will most likely stay in power until 2030, I wonder what the next documentary nominated for Oscars will be about if Ukraine won't be assisted to win this war. 2024 is a decisive year for Ukraine, let it be the year of brave decision making and political will for Europe. #ukraine #documentary

For the eclipse enthusiasts, an excellent special from PBS: https://lnkd.in/e4PT7Sg7 For an important eclipse safety lesson, see what happens to eclipse viewing glasses when viewing the sun with an unfiltered telescope (mark 9 minutes and 15 seconds)!

Noted! my early review of "Oppenheimer" and prediction that it would sweep the Oscars in 2024 was spot-on! (and there is a scientific hope at the end...). Yesterday, the film "Oppenheimer," which won 7 Oscars out of 13 nominations including Best Picture at the 2024 Oscars, has been celebrated for its authentic portrayal of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the consequential Manhattan Project. Director Christopher Nolan, striving for historical and scientific accuracy, collaborated with specialist advisers including Robbert Dijkgraaf, Kip Thorne, and David Saltzberg. These advisers provided insights into Oppenheimer's life, the project's scientific challenges, and the ethical dilemmas of nuclear weapons development. Dijkgraaf, a theoretical physicist and former director of the Institute for Advanced Study, where Oppenheimer also served, offered Nolan a personal tour of Oppenheimer's historical work environment. Thorne, who knew Oppenheimer personally during his time at Princeton, contributed to the portrayal of Oppenheimer's character. Saltzberg, with a background in scientific consulting for television, assisted in ensuring the film's scientific accuracy, particularly in depicting the physics involved in nuclear fission. Their contributions illuminated not just Oppenheimer's scientific genius but also his complex personality and the profound implications of his work. The film navigates the delicate balance Oppenheimer maintained between scientific advancement and ethical responsibility, highlighting the human and moral costs of the atomic bomb. The advisers appreciated Nolan's dedication to depicting the physics accurately and were impressed by the film's ability to convey the weighty topics of nuclear fission, the ethical dilemmas of nuclear weapons, and the personal torment of Oppenheimer. "Oppenheimer" stands out not only for its cinematic achievements but also for raising awareness about the dangers of nuclear weapons and the importance of arms control, echoing the advisers' sentiments on the relevance of these messages today. The film's success at the Oscars and its global popularity suggest a growing public interest in the intertwined narratives of science, ethics, and history, making the hidden life of physicists a captivating subject for popular culture. Are we on the verge of increasing interest in Science? #oscars2024 #Oppenheimer #serendipity #ChristopherNolan #ManhattanProject https://lnkd.in/d6BbxNQf

This phenomenal piece from pudding.cool is a thoughtful reflection of how the change in sci-fi movies over the last 70+ years reflects truths about our views of the world. https://lnkd.in/gU-uCEA2
