In this podcast episode, Valery Ovechkin talks with Boris Evgenievich Stern, a Soviet and Russian astrophysicist and leading researcher at the Institute for Nuclear Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

The conversation centers on the topic of interstellar travel. Does humanity have a physical chance of reaching other stars? Who should be sent on interstellar missions? Is it possible to create a time machine?

The conversation begins with the origins of the universe and the meaning of space exploration, and gradually devolves into the idea that any attempt to "fly far" runs up against the basic laws of reality.

Then the topic of interstellar travel as a business project is raised: what challenges need to be addressed so that it ceases to be science fiction and becomes an investment strategy.

A separate layer is the philosophy of the future: will humanity survive, is there anyone else in the universe, is simulation theory realistic, and where is the boundary between theoretical physics and the idea of ​​time travel?

This episode is for those interested in space and want to understand how interstellar travel actually works, and what are our chances of ever leaving our solar system.
