Summary

Have you ever thought about why Galileo Galilei, an Italian astronomer, physicist, and engineer willing risks his life to speak out about science against the will of the church at that time? How was science back then?So, our dear pod friend, Dr. Brian Keating, an American physicist, podcaster, and author, came on to talk about his project of making the first-ever audiobook that was written by Galileo Galilei, and we also brainstorm on how we could better monetize the projects and future projects!Download the first-ever audiobook by Galileo Galilei for your chance to win space dust here: https://BrianKeating.com/dialogueAlso, make sure you join Brian's mailing list and also have a chance to win space dust! briankeating.com/list Visit Notepd.com to read more idea lists, or sign up and create your own idea list!My new book Skip The Line is out!

0:00.0	This isn't your average business podcast and he's not your average host.
0:06.8	This is the James Altiger show.
0:13.4	Dr. Ryan Keating, physicist, extraordinary professor Keating.
0:18.8	Famous for almost winning the Nobel, or actually, he's famous for losing a Nobel Prize.
0:23.4	I don't know how close you were to almost winning, but we definitely know you lost.
0:27.5	That's true.
0:28.8	And I always ask the same question, but I'll ask it again.
0:31.7	And I'll just remind people, you built a huge telescope in Antarctica, millions of dollars
0:37.6	worth of telescope, to see the gravitational waves that were before the cosmic background
0:45.3	radiation, because light can't get through that, with the idea that maybe you could peek
0:50.2	into the secrets of the universe and see the big bang itself by measuring the gravitational
0:55.5	waves from before the cosmic background radiation started.
0:59.5	And do you think your telescope could have done it if it was like fully working?
1:05.0	Well, yeah, I mean, the telescope worked as good as it possibly could work.
1:09.3	And it was actually so, so optimally designed that it made a measurement that hasn't been
1:16.3	superseded upon, improved upon, in the, for going eight years since we made this announcement
1:22.5	in 2014, the subject of losing the Nobel Prize.
1:26.1	And so it's only gotten more and more strong, the signal to noise ratio, but the thing
1:31.7	that we measured was not what we intended to measure.
1:35.4	And so we wanted to measure these gravitational waves, which is kind of like the shrapnel
1:40.0	or the fossil relic of the so-called inflationary epoch, where inflation is the spark that
1:47.7	ignited the big bang.
