By Matthew Ehret “Can we forecast earthquakes? No. Neither the United States Geology Survey (USGS) nor any other scientists have ever predicted a major earthquake. We do not know how, and we do not expect to know how any time in the foreseeable future.” -United States Geology Survey website On the morning of February 6, 2023…

Optical Biophysics, Galaxy Formation and You
Is the universe living or dead? Is living matter just an isolated cased of anti-entropy within an otherwise entropic universe, slowly dying a heat death? Is space empty or saturated with an animating principle? Are the laws of the macro domain truly separate from the atomic domain or are there unifying principles that unite both…
The Magic of the Atom
If human activity moves into planetary bodies, the distances are daunting and challenges manifold. What type of energy sources will be needed to support a species capable of making journies to Mars or beyond? What sort of energy sources would open up new avenues of creativity on earth at the same time? Chemical fuel and…
C.S. Lewis’ That Hideous Strength: A Tale of Transhumanism, the Occult… & Merlin?!
In this third and final lecture unravelling the multifaceted layers of C.S. Lewis’ penetrating mind and playful style contained in his ‘science fiction trilogy’, Rising Tide Foundation President Cynthia Chung tells the tell of ‘That Hideous Strength’ as it has never been told before. In her presentation, Cynthia reviews a tale which serves as a…
Working Towards the Creative Trinity – How Form Might be Included in a New Physics
In this Rising Tide Foundation lecture, Dr. Michael Clarage introduces a series of anomalies that pull the rug out from under the frail house of cards that is standard theory quantum mechanics, cosmology and even the reductionist biology that supposes all organic traits are the direct consequence of DNA. The rug is pulled by addressing too-often-overlooked…
Remembering John F. Kennedy’s Vision for the Future that Should Have Been
By Matthew Ehret “Man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life. And yet the same revolutionary beliefs for which our forebears fought are still at issue around the globe….” President Kennedy, 1961 Inaugural Address Where China and Russia are currently leading a…
The Plasma Universe and Max Planck’s Musical Space-Time Revisited
By Matthew Ehret Near the end of 2019, signals arrived to Earth from the Voyager 2 spacecraft which have shaken the foundations of modern physics, and brought into question what are the forces and principles shaping the space time of stars within galaxies (and implicitly galaxies within clusters of galaxies). The data which NASA scientists…
A Look Into Halton Arp’s “Peculiar Galaxies” and its Implications for the World We Live In
By Matthew Ehret National Geographic Magazine recently covered a widely publicized scientific study which supposedly proved how and when our universe would die. National Geographic stated: “Physicists believe that countless billions of years from now, after all the stars have burned out, the universe will be a cold, dark expanse where nothing of interest happens,…
Is the Age of Big Bang Cosmology and ‘the Science of Scarcity’ Finally Coming to an End?
By Matthew Ehret It appears increasingly like our world is being shaped by ideas and intentions that have a pseudo-religious like commitment to limits and reducing human activity upon the earth. The concepts of “entropy”, “homeostasis”, “natural equilibrium” and “limits to growth” shape many of the contours of all permitted discussion of ecological, economic and…
Beyond Oil: How the UAE’s HOPE Mars Mission Is Breaking the Arab World Out of the Crisis of Scarcity
By Cynthia Chung Something truly remarkable happened on Feb. 9th, 2021, which I fear has not been fully comprehended by most of the Western hemisphere in terms of its massive implications as a game-changer in geopolitics for the Middle East. Here in the West, we have become accustomed to our jaded denigration of space exploration. It…
