Today, we primarily occupy ourselves with alternative explanations to the Cosmic Microwave Background radiation. Many listeners will be familiar with Pierre Marie Robitaille’s theory that the CMB is produced due to the hydrogen bond lattice of the oceans. Here, Assis lays out a different theory - championed by at least four Nobel Laureates - that the CMB isn’t the afterglow of the Big Bang - it’s simply the temperature at which the cold, dark objects of space are equilibrated against the background light of the stars.

When not talking to brilliant people or making movies, she spends her time painting, reading, and guiding backcountry excursions. Shilo also did his PhD at Columbia studying the elastic properties of molecular water. When he's not in the film studio, he's exploring sound in music. They are both freelance professors at various universities. - Blog: http://DemystifySci.com/blog - RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rss- Donate: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaD- Swag: https://bit.ly/2PXdC2y SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671
