Journey to Nutopia: A Cosmic Supposium at The Cockpit

A Cosmic Supposium: Particles, Plasma, and the Spiritual Singularity

Host MICHELLE OLLEY in conversation with A New Science of Heaven author PROF. ROBERT TEMPLE

Prof. Robert Temple is a scholar who knows a thing or two about cosmic anomalies. The author of a dozen orthodoxy-challenging and provocative books, including the international best-seller, The Sirius Mystery, Robert’s latest book A New Science of Heaven examines plasma – the fourth state of matter that makes up 99% of the universe.

Could recent revelations regarding how, in certain conditions, plasma exhibits behaviours associated with sentience, generating an intelligence similar to a super-computer, be the start of a new cosmic origin story, based on science?

Is God no longer male – or female – but perhaps two titanic clouds of plasma?

Where does this leave the Big Bang Theory?

Have we been looking for signs of extra-terrestrial life in the wrong place?

As AI evolves, are we nearing the singularity that scientists and theologians have been predicting?

We have so many questions for Professor Temple.

Readings from DAISY CAMPBELL and TOM BAKER

With readings by Daisy Campbell and the Bohemianauts’ Tom Baker, we’ll be exploring fictional pantheons and cosmologies from some of the greatest architects of the imagination, including Alan Moore and Terry Pratchett.
