AARTAARTS3E4: René Romero Schuler, Painter & SculptorThe American painter and sculptor René Romero Schuler creates powerful images that speak to the complexities of the human condition and the spirit that connects all human beings. René did not have any formal art training but since a small child felt that she was always meant to be an artist. She endured a difficult childhood and those real life challenges are imbued in her work illustrating her appreciation for the struggles and triumphs of humanity. René was born in Chicago in 1968 to parents Maryanne, a retired nurse and Rocky, who René describes as a bit of an enigm...2025-02-251h 17The Brian Hess ShowThe Brian Hess ShowEpisode 818 | Pittsburgh Steeler Legends: Rocky Bleier & Jon KolbEpisode 818 | Pittsburgh Steeler Legends: Rocky Bleier & Jon Kolb2024-10-2238 minInto the Impossible With Brian KeatingInto the Impossible With Brian KeatingHow Being Wrong in Science Can Lead to Great Breakthroughs w/ Rocky KolbPlease join my mailing list here 👉 https://briankeating.com/list to win a meteorite 💥How can embracing mistakes, challenging common assumptions, and daring to be wrong lead to groundbreaking discoveries in cosmology?Here to talk about why being wrong might actually be a good thing is the legendary astrophysicist Rocky Kolb.

In daily life we do not experience the quantum nature of the world on the scale of elementary particles, nor do we sense the expansion and evolution of the universe on cosmic scales. Humans, midway in size between quantum and cosmic scales, evolved to perceive nature not as it actually is, but merely as required to survive in our environment.

In recent decades, scientists have found that the vast bulk of the universe (95-96 percent) consists of some as-yet-unidentified thingums known as "dark matter" and "dark energy." Astrophysicist Rocky Kolb explains what we know and don't know about these mystery ingredients. Then science writer Richard Panek describes the sometimes bumpy road to their discovery.2011-04-1700 min
