Understanding our humanity - the essence of who we are - is one of the deepest mysteries and biggest challenges in modern science. Why do we have bad moods? Why are we capable of having such strange dreams? How can metaphors in our language hold such sway on our actions? As we learn more about the mechanisms of human behavior through evolutionary biology, neuroscience, anthropology, and other related fields, we're discovering just how intriguing the human species is.

Host Ryan Cole explores the bleeding edge of AI, computing, and engineering—uncovering breakthroughs happening in private labs, quantum research centers, and high-stakes deployment environments before they reshape our world. Each episode reveals the hidden innovations, risks, and brilliant minds defining the next decade of technology.

The deep sea is one of our planet's last frontiers. For most of human history, it has been a remote realm shrouded in obscurity. But here, where the light cannot reach, lies a strange, wonderful and breathtaking world, teeming with scientific marvels and lessons for the future of life on this planet. In The Dark Frontier, marine microbiologist and explorer Jeffrey Marlow plunges us into the ocean's depths and invites us to witness close-up encounters with its hidden brilliance.

Brought to you by Penguin. In very recent times humanity has learnt a vast amount about the universe, the past, and itself. But through our remarkable successes in acquiring knowledge we have learned how much we have yet to learn: the science we have, for example, addresses just 5% of the...

Final Frontier è il luogo in cui le nuove frontiere dell’innovazione smettono di essere concetti astratti e diventano territori concreti da esplorare.Uno spazio narrativo in cui la tecnologia, lo spazio e le industrie digitali più evolute si intrecciano, raccontate attraverso le voci di chi le sta costruendo giorno dopo giorno. Tra questi mondi in trasformazione, un ruolo sempre più centrale è occupato dall’universo del gaming e dell’intrattenimento interattivo, oggi laboratorio avanzato di sperimentazione tecnologica, intelligenza artificiale e nuove forme di immersione digitale. ...

In 1915, as the "Great War" (World War 1) entered its second year Rudyard Kipling made a journalistic tour of the front, visiting French armed forces. By then he was already winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature (the first writer in English to be so honoured). He published his observations in articles in the Daily Telegraph in England, and in the New York Sun. At that stage of the war nationalistic sentiments were running high but the true cost of war was beginning to be understood "at home". The collection of journalistic pieces is preceded by a poem, "France", that had been published ...

The Bio-Quantum Frontier is a deep-dive podcast dedicated to exploring the intersection of theoretical physics, evolutionary biology, and the future of medicine. We move beyond the classical "fluid-mosaic" descriptions of life to investigate the precise, deterministic mechanisms that allow biological systems to operate at the edge of the quantum realm.From the 1836:1 mass-anisotropy filters that govern our thoughts to the terahertz resonance clocks that dictate metabolic health, this channel decodes the complex "hardware" of the cell. We feature rigorous discussions on the latest peer-reviewed...

Every week, one idea from the edge of science and technology — explained like you’re hearing it for the first time. Hosts break down the research nobody’s talking about yet, the physics of everyday objects, and the AI tools quietly reshaping how the world works. No jargon. No condescension. Just two genuinely curious people going deep on the things your brain won’t let go of.

The Long Frontier is a new deep tech podcast from AlleyCorp, hosted by Brannon Jones and Abe Murray. Each episode goes deep on a specific technology area — the science, the engineering tradeoffs, the market dynamics, and the investment implications. Our audience is smart, curious professionals — founders, investors, engineers, business leaders — who want to genuinely understand the technology at a level beyond what most media covers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Originally published anonymously in The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, with an earlier draft titled Arrow-Tip appearing in The Aristidean, Half-Breed A Tale of the Western Frontier represents one of the rare long-form works of fiction by Walt Whitman from the early stages of his career. This gripping narrative follows Arrow-Tip, a Native American wrongfully accused of murdering local blacksmith Peter Brown. Despite clear evidence of his innocence, Arrow-Tip faces the grim fate of a death sentence. Compounding his plight is Boddo, a deformed hunchback ostracized for his mixed-race heritage, who seeks ...

Triumphs and disasters in the deep sea This is a journey through time and water, to the bottom of the ocean and the future of our planet. We do not see the ocean when we look at the water that blankets more than two thirds of our planet. We only see the entrance to it. Beyond that entrance is a...

A podcast series examining innovation at the intersection of science, technology, and media. Season 1 explores AI as a 'reader' of content, and how this fundamental shift is changing the way we access, interpret, and share information. Hosted by Jessica Miles, each episode looks at the philosophical considerations and practical consequences of this disruption, focusing on scientific and scholarly content.

If humans and their private wealth have made such a mess of Earth, who can say we won’t do the same in space? In The Consequential Frontier, business and technology journalist Peter Ward is raising this vital question before it’s too late. Interviewing tech CEOs, inventors, scientists, lobbyists, politicians, and future civilian astronauts, Ward sheds light on a whole industry beyond headline-grabbing rocket billionaires like Bezos and Musk and introduces the new generation of activists trying to keep it from rushing recklessly into the cosmos.

In Human Frontiers, Michael Bhaskar draws a vividly entertaining and expansive portrait of humanity's relationship with big ideas. He argues that stasis at the frontier is the result of having already pushed so far, taken easy wins and started to hit limits. But new thinking is still possible. By adopting bold global approaches, deploying cutting-edge technology like AI and embracing a culture of change, we can push through and expand afresh.

In 1977 a group of scientists, artists and writers gathered in a house in Ithaca, New York to work on the most important mixtape ever conceived. It wasn’t from one person to another - it was from Earth to the cosmos. When NASA sent Voyagers 1 and 2 on a grand tour of the outer planets, they knew the ultimate fate of these plucky probes would be to drift forever in the unimaginable void of interstellar space. 

Fight for the Final Frontier uses the concepts associated with irregular warfare to offer new insights for understanding the nature of strategic competition in space. Today's most pressing security concerns are best considered using an irregular warfare lens because incidents and points of potential conflict fall outside the definition of armed conflict. While some universal rules of combat apply across all domains, conflict in space up-ends those assumed standards of understanding.

Il mito del pianeta rosso resiste nel nostro immaginario, nonostante innumerevoli missioni d'esplorazione abbiano svelato ormai molti dei suoi segreti. È "l'altro pianeta" dove, da anni, le agenzie spaziali di tutto il mondo vanno alla ricerca di vita extraterrestre; è anche l'unico luogo dove possiamo sperare di insediare una colonia umana. L'audiolibro racconta tutto quello che c'è da sapere su Marte, dalla sua conformazione alle ipotesi di abitabilità, fino alle ultime conquiste del Rover Curiosity, che vi è atterrato nel 2012.
