And if #ScienceTwitter wants to know why I spun on a dime, it鈥檚 because it IS linked to the post-Einsteinian physics of our survival. 馃檹 |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1570090986969403394 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Under [[Isaac Newton|Newton]], we were free to explore the cosmos: 1686-1905. Einstein then enforced house arrest to our solar system:1905-Now. @elonmusk then said chemical rockets could get us 2 more spheres w Newtonian laws. But survival hinges on going *beyond* Einstein, not back to Newton. |quote= {{Tweet |image=rogerahicks-profile.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/rogerahicks/status/1570080616032473090 |name=Philosopher Kin/Roger the Racist/Race Realist. |usernameurl=https://x.com/rogerahicks |username=rogerahicks |content=Did you really say that, Eric? Like EVERY civilisation before us, not destroyed by some rival, we are on course to self-destruct long before we become a multi-planetary species.

That鈥檚 the basic plot. Either there is freedom to leave based on new ideas, like [[Theory of Geometric Unity|GU]], or the [[Einstein鈥檚 Prison|Einsteinian restrictions]] will persist. If they persist; we probably can mildly elongate survival here by decades via wisdom. |timestamp=4:49 PM 路 Sep 14, 2022 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1570095403038814215 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=But if we can leave to explore the universe by going beyond Einstein, anyone else out there can visit. This brings us to [[UAP|UFO/UAP]]. Assuming a distribution of life in the cosmos:: some life is behind us in science, with others ahead. A (loose) argument then links [[UAP]] to survival: |timestamp=5:01 PM 路 Sep 14, 2022 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1570096379405676544 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=If life is abundant & we鈥檙e not the top of the hierarchy (which is reasonable to me), I鈥檇 guess that [[UAP]] would be here if that is possible in Einstein鈥檚 successor theories. The absence of [[UAP]] is strong but *inconclusive* proof that [[Einstein鈥檚 Prison|Einstein鈥檚 restrictions]] persist in all theory. |timestamp=5:05 PM 路 Sep 14, 2022 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1570097237136658433 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=Hence my interest in [[UAP]]. [[UAP]] from distant worlds would be a strong indication that it is possible to diversify our shared risk which is that all known technological life is dependent on one atmosphere linking our three main existential risks: A) Climate</br> B) Pathogen</br> C) Radiation |timestamp=5:08 PM 路 Sep 14, 2022 }} |timestamp=5:15 PM 路 Sep 14, 2022 }} {{stub}}
