Just Released! Episode 2 of the online video show Spacegeek: The Pope, Giordano Bruno and Freud Are Sitting Around In Heaven looks at the most human attribute of all: questionning. In this case questionning our motivation to search for planets beyond the anthill called Earth. I agree, it's a beautiful anthill, but it's still an anthill. Hundreds of millions of dollars that could be lining the pockets of politicians are instead spent on large or advanced tech telescopes to hunt for planets beyond our system. That's pretty amazing! Bertrand Russel commented on the 'worth' of fields such as astronomy by suggesting they are what wars are worth fighting for. Imagine the thought of people fighting a war over a scientific theory! I digress: this episode presents three angles on Western civilization's search for a nemesis. It also features a view of Heaven with the three illustrious members chatting with each other.
