Guests:

David Darling, Andrew Mishkin

Monday's main guest, author and astronomer David Darling (website(1)) touched on a wide range of scientific topics, from life in the universe, to the human spiritual quest. "We're directly connected with the cosmos," in that we are literally made from stardust, he noted. "You're seeing your origins when you look up into the sky," he added.
While impressed with the current NASA Rover mission on Mars, Darling suggested that the ailing International Space Station had become a "white elephant," that was not conducting any significant science. If we want to send manned missions to Mars, "we need a firmer footing," he said.
Darling said he had in recent years begun studying the self through meditation. He commented that eastern religions such as Buddhism have developed a "science of the subjective." In a new book he is working on, he said he is immersing himself in three different religions within one year to see if they all lead in one direction. Darling also mentioned that his book on teleportation will be finished this spring.
