Summary

Michio Kaku is one of the most famous physicists out there. His new book, "The Future of Humanity" is a New York Times bestseller. It's full of deep questions. "Every question has another answer, which begs more questions," he said. "But that's good. Because that's what science is all about." Michio talked to me about time travel, space travel, etc. And he PROVED that there's a lot more possible than just what lies on the surface. The future is an exciting picture.

0:00.0	This isn't your average business podcast and he's not your average host.
0:06.4	This is the James Altiger Show on the Choose Yourself Network.
0:10.4	Today on the James Altiger Show.
0:15.0	How do you come up with all the questions you come up with?
0:18.0	Your book is filled with more questions and solutions.
0:21.0	Well, you know, when I watch science fiction movies, I say to myself,
0:24.0	what in this movie violated the laws of physics?
0:27.0	When I see Harry Potter, in fact, that's of course a movie about magic.
0:30.0	But I realize that well, very few laws of physics are violated even in Harry Potter.
0:36.0	Once we understand the motion of molecules that can manipulate molecules,
0:40.0	we can do things that most people will consider magic.
0:43.0	And so writing this book, I ask the same question.
0:46.0	What prevents us from laser-porting?
0:48.0	What prevents us from living nearly forever?
0:52.0	What prevents us from going to the stars?
0:54.0	And then I realize almost nothing.
0:57.0	Laws of physics are compatible with everything inside that book.
1:01.0	And then every time you come up with a solution though,
1:03.0	it seems like you're looking at what questions does this lead to.
1:06.0	When you put it that way, you begin to realize that every proposition in science fiction,
1:10.0	you can pick apart.
1:11.0	Every question has another answer which begs more questions.
