"I Gave Her the Stars": Retief's Wonderful Voice

In the 3rd romance novel in the New Mexico sci fi trilogy series set in the Over the Edge universe, Lolly admires Retief's deep, rich and warm voice.

As an observer, you have a role in creating reality, not just in observing, but in how you think about and speak about what you observe.

Split Brains and Individuals Who Band Together to Make One

In the Over the Edge series the Somainai characters are marsupial humanoids. Marsupials are mammals whose young make a journey from the birth canal to the pouch where they find a teat and complete their development. Everyone has seen the cute pictures of kangaroo babies peering over the rim of their mother's pouches. There are many dramatic differences between placental mammals and marsupials. Marsupials view the world in the ultraviolet spectrum, which is so foreign to us that we can hardly imagine it and you'd be hard pressed to find decent images on the web that portray what that might look like. They also have split brains.

Normally placentals don't have split brains. Our brains are unified by a structure called the "corpus callosum" which is a bundle of nerves that unifies the two brain hemispheres. There are instances of human beings who don't have corpus callosums at birth. You can find articles about some of those people in the archives of this blog. For a time doctors tried cutting the corpus callosum to treat epilepsy. This video discusses some of what we've learned from these patients. The archives of this blog also contain articles dealing with this topic.

In Over the Edge marsupial humanoid characters' silent brains use sign language to communicate simultaneously with the speaking brain--sometimes about different topics that might be unrelated. This can occasionally generate conflict between one brain and the other, even to the point of suicide. The Bible talks about a sort of split mindedness when addressing how human beings are capable of holding two opposite views simultaneously, this is called "double-mindedness." Disunity in a creature that is supposed to operate in unity is not a good thing.

Our bodies are made up of individual cells, each of which has its own life. Christians speak of "the body of Christ," when talking about the church, a kind of organism of which Jesus is the head that is a new creation, just as the individual Christian is a new creation, a kind of being that never existed before. Christians think they kind of know what that means, to be a new creation and to be the body of Christ, but it is my belief that we don't really have a clue. The video below this one touches on the question, "If we are a bundle of individuals who are dying and being replaced all the time, who are we anyway?" Christians answer that question by saying, "I am a spirit living in a body using a soul as my interface between me and the world." For more on this topic visit Carolingian Studios for the video called "Do Humans Have Souls?"

Here's another article on this topic: Are Split-brain People Really Two Half Persons?

Consciousness, the soul and other related concepts have been and will continue to be explored in this blog. Please check the archives for past articles. Thank you.

That Postman Who Paints Scarves for Hermes

In the upcoming sequel to Give Her the Stars Lolly Lang quips that Retief's scarf looks like one created by the postman in Texas who paints the designs used in scarves for Hermes. That fellow's name is Kermit Oliver and he lives in East Waco, Texas. His story is the kind of romantic success that's a key element in all my fiction. Here's more about Kermit:

A Better Spacesuit

When the white, 30 lb. space suits used during the Apollo missions were created, human beings had forgotten how to make clothing--except tube socks--without seams. Those charged with creating the suits had to reinvent that lost technique. The History of Space Suits

Serious space travel needs suits that protect the wearer from the harsh realities of space while allowing freedom of movement. The Apollo and shuttle suits are bulky and limit mobility. Someone has to help his buddy get into one of those suits. Now Boeing has a new space suit that is easy for one person to put on, doesn't need a cooling unit to keep the person from sweating their brains out and isn't orange--a big plus for those of us who wondered, "Why orange? It's so ugly."

Apparently the Power Elites Have Decided to Get Us Excited About Space Again...

Will the future consist of ordinary mortals suffering slavery at the hands of global elitists or will the future consist of ordinary mortals playing an integral role in shaping the future? The answer to that question is up to us. If we still believe in the Constitution of the United States of America, we need to get busy and get active in every venue we have available to us. Each of us has a sphere of influence. Instead of complaining, use your influence. We need to stop thinking of politics as dirty business--we need to become politicians, every political office matters from sheriff to mayor, to state representative, if we fill all those posts with people who love God and love the Constitution, we can turn this country around. We need to stop hating businessmen--we need to become businessmen. We need to stop whining and get busy working. It's up to us!

Science of Over the Edge: Gravity

In the Over the Edge series characters have achieved mastery of gravity and use gravity fields in elevators to lift and lower occupants. Gravity waves are also used to push or repel ships and gain acceleration or slow ships down.

LIGO, laser interferometer gravitational-wave observatory, recently reported that scientists have detected gravitational waves. This is a huge step forward in our understanding of gravity and of the universe!

IT'S OFFICIAL: Gravitational waves have been detected, Einstein was right

Gravity is a field--full Tesla theory of gravity is classified!

The Science of Over the Edge: Bone Growing Wire

Inventors haven't come up with bone growing wire as described in the first book of the Over the Edge series, but they have come up with some bone growing foam. French scientists reported recently that they'd created an injectable foam that repairs degenerating bones and may even regrow them. It's called calcium phosphate cement. It's been used before, repairing broken vertebra for instance, but not in this form. Here's the link to the story:

What About AI That's Not Intelligent?

This is just a picture--it won't play the video. Click on the link above for video.

People worry about artificial intelligence. They have good reason, even without the numerous science fiction stories that explore the dangers of AI. But what about AI that's not intelligent? What about AI that just blindly does what it does? That's what Kevin Slavin describes in the Ted Talk link above.

In Over the Edge robots abound, but they're mostly harmless. This implies that the question of AI has been dealt with. Hmn, might be a good story.

The Science of Over the Edge: Entanglement

Quantum entanglement occurs when two particles remain connected, even over large distances, in such a way that actions performed on one particle have an effect on the other.

In Love from the Stars, a romance novel from the Over the Edge universe, Violet observes that she feels "entangled" with the hero, Causey Lindo. Entanglement between humans isn't a new concept to fiction, but it is romantic! In the novel, Jane Eyre, the hero, Rochester, tells Jane that he feels an invisible cord connects him to her.

Christians believe that they are "in Christ," connected to Him by the Holy Spirit and entangled with Him so that His death becomes the believer's death, His resurrection becomes the believer's resurrection and believers become joint heirs with Christ and have the power to operate on planet earth in the same way and with the same miraculous power He demonstrated. The "Lord's Prayer" even asks for entanglement to occur, "Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven." That Christians often do not live up to their potential or take advantage of the connection to remain spiritually intimate with Christ does not mean that the ability and power aren't there. The "cares" and pleasures of the material world often distract from spiritual matters.

UFO Case Files Revealed--Michael Schratt--MUFON

Starting with known, declassified documentation of black and skunk works air and space craft and working his way through increasingly speculative craft this video gives the viewer a overview of advance flying technology, including how the crafts are flown and powered.

In Over the Edge characters fly space jets not unlike some of the craft described here. Also, in the world of Over the Edge characters have mastered gravity and use it along with the electromagnetic spectrum to travel through deep space at speeds approaching light.

Enjoy!
