In this show Marcus will talking to Laura Mersini-Houghton about how she escaped Albania – the North Korea of Europe – to become a professor of physics in the US, …and her extraordinary theory of how our new-born universe was entangled with neighbouring universes in the Multiverse, leaving an indelible imprint on the night sky.

5 THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT THE MULTIVERSE

– According to the calculations of Nobel prize-winner Roger Penrose, the chance of a single universe like ours being born is impossibly small.

– Everything makes sense if our Universe is not the only one but part of a huge ensemble of universes: the Multiverse.

– The Multiverse contains a mind-bogglingly huge number of universes – by some estimates, as many as 1 followed 600 zeroes of them!

– The fossil imprint of universe that were neighbours of ours before the big bang is written in the pattern of galaxies across the night sky.

– At least one fossil imprint of the Multiverse has been found: an anomalously huge void completely empty of galaxies.

GUEST: LAURA MERSINI-HOUGHTON

Laura Mersini-Houghton is an Albanian-American theoretical physicist and cosmologist. Currently a professor at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, she is an expert on what happened before the big bang. In fact, her book, Before the Big Bang, is published by Bodley Head on 21 July 2022.

ABOUT: Mines’s a pint, Einstein – The Science Show

Wouldn’t it be great if you could get Einstein down the pub and ask him all the questions you’ve ever wanted to ask about life, the Universe and everything? Well, we can’t get Einstein but we can do the next best thing. On Mine’s A Pint, Einstein, we will interview some of the world’s front-rank scientists about the magic of science and give you the chance to post your own questions in the livestream chat for guests. Our host is the award-winning writer and broadcaster Marcus Chown. Formerly a radio astronomer at the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena, he is the author of best-selling books such as Quantum Theory Cannot Hurt You; Breakthrough and The Ascent of Gravity, which was The Sunday Times Science Book of the Year https://marcuschown.com/

Building the Scottish State Show: Series 1 – Episode 34 – Tommy Sheridan

On this week’s show, Dr Mark McNaught is joined by Tommy Sheridan.
Mr Sheridan is a former MSP (Scottish …Socialist Party) and is the current convener of the Solidarity Party. He was a leading contributor in the establishing of the Scottish Socialist Alliance in 1996, which evolved into the Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) in 1998. He then became the convener of the party, and was elected to the Scottish Parliament in 1999 as a Glasgow representative and re-elected in 2003. During which time he co-published ‘Imagine’ an outline of the principles of socialism for a modern era.

Tommy was also active in implementing long-needed changes in Scottish law, including the Abolition of Feudal Tenure etc. (Scotland) Act 2000 and the Abolition of Poindings and Warrant Sales Act 2001, which he introduced as bills in Holyrood on 6 December 2001

Mr Sheridan, continues to be a major campaigner for Scottish Independence, and in 2013 founded the Hope Over Fear campaign, on the purpose to target the communities, estates, and villages that were being missed by the official Yes campaign. During which time Tommy addressed 121 public meetings and spoke to thousands of potential yes citizens all across Scotland. The Hope Over Fear group has promised to continue campaigning, which includes an annual rally at George Square to continue the demand for Scotland’s freedom.
