FTL... We’re breaking physics (politely) to ask the biggest question in space travel: Can we go faster than light? From warp bubbles to wormholes, let’s explore the engines of tomorrow, and the science that might make them real.

TOD’s Episode Obsession: Warp-Field Sommelier Culture

TOD now identifies as a certified warp-field sommelier. He’s pairing theoretical propulsion methods with various paradoxes, curating space-time like a wine list, and wearing a tiny gravity wave cravat.

Catch you next orbit. Bring oxygen. And snacks. Definitely snacks.

They’re mysterious, monstrous, and utterly indifferent to your hopes, dreams, or molecular cohesion. In this episode, we dive headfirst into the cosmic enigma of black holes; How they form, what they do, why they haunt physicists’ dreams, and what actually happens if you fall into one? (spoiler: it’s not great). From stellar collapse to event horizons, spaghettification to information paradoxes, we’re exploring the most dramatic “Do Not Enter” signs in the universe.

(He’s deep into reading Lovecraft, designing his own line of emotionally supportive gravity blankets, and trying to trademark the phrase “Spaghettify Me, Daddy.”)

There are stickers... There is regret...

Terraforming: the ultimate cosmic home renovation. In this episode, we dig into what it is, how it might work (if science fiction politely becomes science fact), and whether reshaping entire planets is visionary… or just interstellar hubris. From altering atmospheres to engineering ecosystems, we explore the wild theories, real technologies, and big ethical questions behind humanity’s dream of turning dead worlds into second homes.

TOD’s obsession this week: Planetary Interior Design... He’s been binge-watching Extreme Makeover: Solar System Edition and insists every planet needs mood lighting, geothermal spa zones, and just a splash of lava for ambiance. Mars is getting a skylight.
