What Is the Universe? The Truth May Be Stranger Than You Think... Answers in Cosmology | #podcasts

Step into the mind-expanding journey that challenges everything we think we know about the universe. This episode explores not what the universe is, but how we have imagined it—across cultures, centuries, and civilizations. From Aboriginal dreamings to the Copernican and Darwinian revolutions, from medieval theological models to the high-energy frontiers of modern astrophysics, we peel back layer after layer of cosmic masks humanity has crafted. Each universe we’ve believed in—from the geocentric to the godless—is a story we’ve told ourselves to make sense of existence.

We’ll dive into the origins of cosmology as a blend of science, philosophy, theology, and art. Why do humans invent universes? How do cultural myths shape societies—and vice versa? Why did the Age of Magic give way to Theism, and how did the rise of science save Europe from the dark cosmos of witch trials? You’ll hear how ideas like the “Great Chain of Being” and the “Principle of Plenitude” still echo today in our environmental crises, and why our future cosmologies may need new moral frameworks—not just new tech.

Whether it’s the soul-searching wisdom of Erwin Schrödinger or the cold despair of Bertrand Russell, this podcast embraces the mystery and madness of the cosmos. And in the end, one truth remains: every universe we’ve ever known is a reflection of the human mind—the cosmos dreaming of itself.

🔭✨ An unforgettable voyage through time, thought, and space. Because the question isn’t just “What is the universe?”—it’s “What does the universe mean?”
