Future News - Battery Day on Planet Earth, Tim Welch on Freedom Concert in Santa Cruz, COVID-19 Management with Dr. Paul Marik, Wildfire Control Brainstorm, Venusian/ Black Hole Updates

Listen Now to The Dr.Mrs. Future Show 9.22.2020

Hey, it was Battery Day today and Bobby Wilder gives us a little update on Elon’s latest announcement.  And in Santa Cruz, a lot of folks are fed up with the virus restrictions and are staging a concert to open up the town. Organizer Tim Welch is here to tell us all about it. And for our medical geek listeners, you’ll enjoy the info from the front lines of two docs who have been treating COVID-19 patients and have posted a very clear, easy-to-grok timeline of the virus’s life cycle, and what treatments are best when.  If this interests you check out the full video in our links page, or right here.. 

We then explore some novel approaches to controlling wildfires, including sound waves and a gas nitrogen bomb. A fundraiser for our Boulder Creek Volunteer Fire Department is then discussed, with names and phone numbers for more info. 

And finally, some updates on space news regarding finding signs of life on Venus and “stupendously large black holes,” or SLABs.  They can be as large as 100 Billion star masses in size. Compare this to our very own black hole in the center of our Milky Way galaxy, at only 4.5 million solar masses. SLABs are a new frontier for studying dark matter. Enjoy!

Certainly one of the most creative things we’ve seen this week is what the planet Venus would look like if it had oceans comparable to those found on our planet, Earth.  The mind runs wild observing the myriad of islands and large land masses seen, imagining names for all the new places to be discovered on this planet almost identical in size to our own.

Meanwhile Mrs. Future and I are still evacuees, hoping to return home soon to our piece of paradise in Boulder Creek, which survived the ravaging wildfires of our area, this week.  We did jump at the chance to see an uncrowded Yosemite National Park this week, albeit a bit smokey, but well worth the trip!

This week we have a report from wildfire tracker Frank Schwartz on the conditions of the Bay Area’s wildfires, including our local CZU fire. Smoke is a big concern of many right now and Frank shares what he knows how the topic.

Our science correspondent, Bobby Wilder, also joins us this week to discuss the latest info on Covid-19, and what happening with Science and Space News. as well as the big Neuralink demo this last week.  Enjoy!
