The first Podcast is out. It's about the Fermi paradox and possible resolutions to it. I realize some of my more scientifically rigorous subscribers may not be very happy with the science fiction slant in this podcast, but I wanted to start the podcasts with something really fascinating to think about. We'll get to some rock solid science soon enough, I promise.
Here are some links from the show:
This is the "Golden Record" sent with the Voyager spacecraft on a journey out of our solar system and, hopefully, into the arms of eagerly waiting alien civilizations. Click on the picture for a link to the Wikipedia entry. Carl Sagan co-wrote a book about the record and all the stuff on it called "Murmurs of the Earth"
Solve the Drake Equation. I got 200 when I did it.

The stream doesn't work. At least not for me, and I'm pretty sure not for anyone else except perhaps the author.
looking at the page source, the player looks to be looking for a file "ithica_3_31_07.mp3". Problem is, it's looking for it at http://127.0.0.1 which will not work, except for possible the author himself...
Yeah, sorry Matt. I got it fixed. It's my first time podcasting so I guess I'm learning from experience.
