39 Future News Now - Joby over NYC, Mars Fleet Lying Low, SETI gets $200m, U-2 hunts for Minerals, Stem cells slash heart attack risk

Listen to Future News Now 11.14.23

Our local eVTOL company, Joby Aviation did a demo flight over NYC this last weekend, showing they are ready for primetime, taxi-ing passengers from the Big Apple to JFK airport in 7 minutes!  It’s a slow couple of weeks on Mars now, as the Sun blocks our communications with the Red Planet.  But our fleet of robotic craft have plenty to do while they wait for us to regain contact.  The Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence organization just got a $200 million boost in their budgets from Franklin Antonio, co-founder of Qualcomm. NASA’s remote sensing tech for minerals is being tested at home via an sensor equipped modified U-2 spy plane, flying over America’s Southwest. They hope to find deposits of lithium, cobalt and nickel, vital for the electronics and battery industries. And it appears stem cell treatments can make a difference in preventing future heart attacks, the major cause of death in our country.. Enjoy our news segment!

As May fades into summertime, warm weather returns and we hang more in the great outdoors.  And we are  using our phones more than ever for transactions as we travel, and can be seduced by various fraudsters and their shenanigans. This week we speak with our alternative health correspondant, Bruce Erkson, after a months long ordeal involving Internet phone fraud from Ghana, the new pirate haven for online chicanery. His is a cautionary tale well worth hearing, as you too could be  next, especially as AI is applied to creating more sophisticated means of stealing identities and fleecing the human flock… 
We also have some great space news and look at how nVidia is benefiting from the current AI craze. Enjoy!

SETI Falls, NSA Rises to the Alien Question, Captain Crunch shares classic stories, new interests

Dr. Future Show The Alien Question and John Draper

We had a lot of stories for you this show, check our links section.  But, the KSCO audience was really interested in the alien question in this show, so we focused on that, particularly the latest defunding of SETI (Search for ExtraTerrestrial Intelligence) for the Allen Array and the recent NSA (National Security Agency) decoding of a purported alien transmission of the Periodic Table of Elements!

The second hour features the granddaddy of hackerdom, John Draper, aka Captain Crunch, who shares with us some classic stories from his past with phones, pirate radio, and computers. He has lately been very interested in alternative energy, with stories of new revolutionary battery tech and such…
