Are We Living Inside A Simulation?

Today on Far Future Horizons we ask the question: Are we living in a simulation? Is the totality of cosmic existence nothing more than a manufactured reality created inside some incredibly advanced super computer?

Oxford philosopher Nick Bostrom

Personally I feel that simulation hypothesis, first formulated by Nick Bostrom (whose work in the field of existential risks I greatly admire), presented in this documentary is a very good example of pathologically bad science. I  think that in our attempts to stretch the limits of human knowledge to the breaking point, we are in fact being led down avenues of muddled headed thinking.  And, as a result, science fiction and fantasy are taking the place of real level-headed science.

Do We Live in the Matrix?

Today on Far Future Horizons we join veteran actor Morgan Freeman for another exciting installment of the acclaimed documentary series Through the Wormhole.

This episode explores the question - Do We Live in the Matrix?

The New Time Lords

Is time travel possible? And if it were what will this reveal to us about the fundamental nature of reality? Will our forays into the fourth dimension reveal to us that all of cosmic existence is in fact virtual and that we are nothing more than mere virtual players in a highly advanced computer simulation? Will our attempts at becoming the New Time Lords only reveal to us that in fact we are mere pawns in a highly sophisticated arcade game?

According to the BBC documentary Horizon-“Time Trip” such possibilities are very real.

Is There A Creator?

Today on Far Future Horizons we present the first episode of  “Through the Wormhole” hosted by veteran actor Morgan Freeman.

The first installment of this series explores perhaps the ultimate existential question - Is There A Creator?

Through the Wormhole explores the deepest mysteries of existence — the questions that have puzzled mankind for millennia.

What are we made of? What was there before the beginning? Are we really alone? Is there a creator? These questions have been pondered by the most brilliant minds of the human race. Now, science has evolved to the point where hard facts and evidence may be able to provide us with answers.
