Eigenbros ep 155 - Talking Bio (w/ Jackson)
11/03/2022 Duration: 01h27minJuan, Terence, and Jackson reunite with marine biologist Jackson. They discuss several concepts related to biology
-
Eigenbros ep 154 - Creating the Warp Drive w/ Dr. Harold "Sonny" White
25/02/2022 Duration: 01h15minJuan and Terence invite guest Harold Sonny White who is responsible for writing the paper on the Alcubierre White warp drive. The Alcubierre metric was made practical by Sonny White after modifying the ship geometry into a torus. This reduced the required energy to bend spacetime by several orders of magnitude bringing this theoretical novelty closer to reality.

Eigenbros ep 147 - Discussing Quantum Gravity
07/01/2022 Duration: 01h05minJuan & Terence discuss Quantum Gravity and what it means to quantize a theory of gravity. Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity are two of the most robust theories of physics but they are incompatible currently. It is presumed that a complete theory of everything will be a theory of quantum gravity.
