Two rants in one episode. The blame lies with the tendancy to give ominous names to new theories. Dark matter should be "undiscovered stuff" and Great attractor "slight gravitational slope". Much less sensational.
Maybe we just call it "dunkel materiel".
Frazier, you said the next live stream is January 16th, but I assume you mean February 16th?
RE Great Attractor ... there's an article on phys(dot)org about a study showing that generative AI science "knowledge" is anywhere from 10 to 100 years out of date ... so anyone who makes a slop video or asks ChatGPT about astronomy is going to get obsolete answers
Frasier do you think it would be pissible to teraform Venus someday? Not just living in the atmosphere but actually teraforming the planet enough so people could live on the surface?
Why wouldn't you want to piss off a Venus Zeppeling?
