Could the most dangerous part of the Milky Way also be its most valuable? We explore civilizations at the galactic center, where dense stars, extreme radiation, black holes, and vast energy could fuel a cosmic...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
What if the ultimate technology isn’t a starship, but a universe? We explore simulated worlds, baby universes, black holes, false vacuum bubbles, and whether civilization could one day create realities of its own. Get...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
White holes are black holes run backward: nothing can enter, but matter and light can escape. We explore whether these strange solutions could exist, connect to black holes, or even hint at how universes are born. Get...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
Mercury may be the Solar System’s first true industrial world. We explore robotic mines, solar furnaces, mass drivers, mobile cities, and how the innermost planet could help build a Dyson swarm. Get Nebula using my link...

Would we ever colonize space with prisoners? From penal colonies to prison planets, we explore whether exile could become a second chance, a new civilization, or a nightmare with rockets. Get Nebula using my link for...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
How big could human civilization become? From trillion-person worlds to Dyson swarms, galaxy-spanning cultures, and digital minds, we explore just how far humanity could scale. Get Nebula using my link for 50% off an...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
What happens when the machines still work, but nobody remembers how they were built? We explore technological amnesia, black-box automation, lost expertise, and civilizations trapped inside inherited technology. Get...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
Why build floating cities above Jupiter and Saturn? Not for fusion fuel, but for something far more valuable: the staggering amounts of hydrogen, nitrogen, and raw material needed to build a spacefaring civilization...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
If we could build a space elevator tomorrow, where should it go? Earth may be the obvious answer, but the Moon, Mars, and other worlds may be far easier. We compare the best candidates. Get Nebula using my link for 50%...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
Ion drives are slow, quiet, and astonishingly efficient. From asteroid freighters and Mars cargo ships to the infrastructure behind future starships, these patient engines may help build civilization across the Solar...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
For 72 seconds, the universe seemed to answer SETI. The Wow! Signal was strong, narrowband, and strangely convincing... but it never came back. So what actually happened in 1977? Get Nebula using my link for 50% off an...

Could life thrive without sunlight? Explore dark biospheres on rogue planets, icy moons, and buried oceans, where chemistry, tidal heating, and geothermal energy may sustain alien ecosystems in eternal night. Get Nebula...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
What really happens when you fall into a black hole? We explore event horizons, spaghettification, what you’d see inside, possible gateways, and why future civilizations might deliberately build around these cosmic...
Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur
From company towns in orbit to corporate empires among the stars, could megacorporations build the space frontier—or end up owning the air, the docks, and the only ride home? Get Nebula using my link for 50% off an...
