KPCC presents Science Friday LIVE: Science of the Silver Screen

Join host Science Friday host Ira Flatow and KPCC FM's own Sanden Totten as Science Friday comes to Caltech's Beckman Auditorium this summer for a thought-provoking evening of science news and entertainment in front of a live audience.

 

A veteran NPR science correspondent and award-winning journalist, Flatow will discuss current science topics with local experts and welcome audience questions. The entire show will be taped for a subsequent national broadcast.

 

Science Friday is a trusted source for science news with an entertaining flair. Started as a radio show by host and executive producer Ira Flatow, Science Friday now also produces award-winning digital videos and original Web content covering everything from octopus camouflage to cooking on Mars. He (and Flora Lichtman) call it “brain fun” for curious people.

Consciousness science kept secret (video)

A moral compass? (DailyMail.co.uk)

Do we experience quantum communication -- the instant telegraphing of our conscious intentions with no regard for distance and time? Telepathy may be a superhuman ability, one used by shapeshifting beings (devas) and gods (brahmas), light beings on other planets and frequencies, but it is something we are or were once quite capable of using. Some of us still are, sometimes cultivated in Buddhist meditation as the "higher powers" (abhiññā). The music of the spheres may be a symphony of coherent communications, much like the cells of a healthy body. 

What's (secret) science ever done for us?

What did David Sereda, the ancient rishis, Nicolas Tesla, Bruce Lipton, Madame Blavatsky, Albert Einstein, Max Planck, Whitley Strieber, Gregg Braden, and others know? Are we actually evolving anymore, or have we actually been devolving for some time now as Michael A. Cremo points out in his extensive spiritual and archeological research? The truth is often kept top secret -- remote viewing, telekenesis, psi, ESP -- once it is confirmed by the powers that be, rather than revealing it to the masses. More peer reviewed science may be done under the strictures of government and military secrecy than all the pop science we see in journals, public university labs, and mainstream magazines. Vril, prana, chi, tachyon, torsion, zero-point physics... From coast to coast this is an unknown country. Just ask Streiber or Art Bell, but don't hold your breath waiting for George Noory to allow any actual revelations. He seems to have been inserted to downplay and manage the release of any potentially inconvenient revelations.
