The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus or Tomb of Mausolus was a tomb built between 353 and 351 BC in Halicarnassus (present Bodrum, Turkey) for Mausolus, an Anatolian from Caria and a satrap in the Achaemenid Persian Empire, and his sister-wife Artemisia II. The structure was designed by the Greek architects Satyros of Paros and Pythius of Priene. Its elevated tomb structure is derived from the tombs of...

Efficient Home Project – DIY sustainable home design 11.02.2026 35:01
Here I discuss my latest home design project for an efficient home. I chose the triangular extrusion shape in lumber framing; for cost, feasibility and practicality of its design and construction. I equipped the home for optimum efficiency for a moderate climate location. This home is small, 3 rooms total. And it is completely self-sustained and off the grid. It has solar energy and LPG powered ap...

Challenges with interstellar travel - Water & food systems 12.01.2026 6:44
An interstellar mission would require tons of drinking water, food, the equipment, space, materials, and supplies; to store preserve, use, and recycle their waste. And, the bulk and mass that these resources will require would be gargantuan. Not only because of the large size of the crew of an interstellar mission. But also because of the long, long, flight ahead of them. Not only these, but the c...
The 1883 Bonilla UFO case 28.12.2025 0:48
The Bonilla observation was an astronomical event in 1883 in which hundreds of unidentified flying objects were observed and photographed by Mexican astronomer José Bonilla. The photographs taken during the Bonilla observation are generally regarded as one of the first known examples of photographs of "unidentified flying objects". Though the objects were assumed to be flocks of high-fly...
The 1561 Nuremberg UFO sighting 28.12.2025 7:23
An April 1561 broadsheet by Hans Glaser described a mass sighting of celestial phenomena or unidentified flying objects (UFO) above Nuremberg (then a Free Imperial City of the Holy Roman Empire). Ufologists have speculated that these phenomena may have been extraterrestrial spacecraft. Skeptics assert that the phenomenon was likely to have been another atmospheric phenomenon, such as a sun dog,[1]...
Ladder fall accident and injury - safety talk 20.08.2025 10:16
Safety Talks. Ladder fall incident. Here I discuss a recent accident that occurred to me. It was a fall and injury caused by a series of unsafe actions. I was in a hurry, stressed, with too many activities scheduled for one day, and under the influence of caffeine and sugar. I took several unsafe decisions, including the unsafe practices during elevated work, standing on furniture, using a ladder...

Their mother reports that she was in her room when the kids disapp...
Jonbenet Ramsey Case - Top suspects - part 3 29.06.2025 44:26
Here I focus on the top 3 suspects of the Jonbenet Ramsey case, the Ramseys. Burke, John and Patsy. There is some suspicion that Burke accidentally killed Jonbenet and it was covered up by his parents. I present this theory and the evidence for it here. John is suspected from many to be a top suspect. He acted in a way many believe are evidence of guilt. As he apparently took steps to evade and de...
The Woodzfolk - video comic - part 1 23.05.2025 14:39
Behold my first comic series since 2000, The Woozfolk. A comic book story about a family that live in isolation from our world. They are part of a greater network of outcasts that have quit our society for all the right reasons. Sickened with the unfairness and suffering of our world, the Woodzfolk have valiantly and secretly separated into a world of surprisingly clever methods to thrive. Welcome...
The challenges of interstellar travel – Orbiting megastructures and anti-collision systems 31.03.2025 12:35
Earth based rocket system are wholly inadequate to launch star bound ships. Their size and complexity make it prohibitively resource intensive. So, in orbit structures are necessary to build and launch interstellar ships. Sadly, we are hopelessly unable to even begin building such structures. Our current energy production and other requirements keep us far short of the mark. Interstellar travel wi...
Challenges with Interstellar Travel - Anti-radiation and gravity systems 22.03.2025 12:13
Challenges with Interstellar Travel. Anti-radiation and gravity systems. In this episode I discuss the biggest problems with interstellar travel: 1. Our inability to block cosmic radiation, and 2. our inability to generate gravity. These two are absolute show stoppers for even nearby space missions, let alone interstellar travel. We absolutely must solve these problems if we want to even consider...
Aircraft and Flight: The complete history - part 1 20.03.2025 41:59
Welcome to part 1 of Aircraft and Flight. This program is a collection of articles, primarily from wikipedia.org, about the history of aircraft and flight. On this first part, I discuss the history of flight beginning in pre-history and ancient times. Then, I move on to the first kites of China, hot air balloons and rigid airships in Europe. Then it moves to heavier than air flying machines in Ame...
Shivkar Bapuji Talpade - Articles, commentary, and a read posting - from Wikipedia and other sources 07.03.2025 24:12
Info-Pres. Collection of articles, commentary, and posts about Shivkar Bapuji Talpade. Talpade is said to have constructed an unmanned, heavier-than-air aircraft called Marutsakhā ("friend of the air") and flown it over Bombay's Chowpatty Beach in 1895. There are no contemporary reports of a successful flight, and no reliable historical records document its existence. Talpade's a...

Tribute to MLK Dr Martin Luther King Jr 20.01.2025 21:10
Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Junior on January 20, 2025. To me MLK was a hero, moral leader, and a messiah figure. I believe he may be all of these literally. And he went deep into our past, and current, ills in American society. His teachings, ideas, and thought are relevant today. We are still a very greedy, violent, and racist nation here in the U.S. And can learn much from his published w...
Challenges with interstellar travel - propulsion 15.01.2025 7:17
The current technology we have for interstellar space travel is very limited, with slow speeds and outdated rockets. Our fastest rocket, Saturn 5, could only reach speeds of about 25,000 km per hour, which means it would take 188,000 years to reach the closest star system, Alpha-Centauri. Nuclear propulsion, either through fusion or fission, is not yet feasible for interstellar flights. Fission re...
Challenges with interstellar travel - Vacuum, collisions and the unknown 12.01.2025 6:00
The vacuum of space presents navigation and habitation challenges for interstellar missions. It takes a lot of energy to slow down, and a livable pressurized atmosphere must be maintained throughout the mission. This is costly, and beyond our current capabilities. Space has much matter in the form of dust, particles, and larger bodies. These can easily collide with any speeding spacecraft, and avo...

Challenges with interstellar travel - Radiation, gravity, temperature 09.01.2025 7:57
Challenges with interstellar travel – Radiation, gravity and temperature. Discussion on the challenges of interstellar travel specifically as it relates to radiation, low gravity, and temperature. Radiation is a major problem to any space crew. Exposure to ionizing radiation can cause diseases and cancer. Low gravity can cause muscle and bone density loss over time. And the extreme low temperature...
