Art Bell begins with a first-hour conversation with Whitley Strieber about the concept of the rapture, tracing its origins to 19th-century theologians John Nelson Darby and Cyrus Schofield. They discuss how this belief system functions as a collective death wish, with adherents opposing environmental stewardship because intervening might delay the end times. Strieber warns that methane trapped beneath the ocean floor and in Arctic permafrost poses a catastrophic threat if released by warming tem...

Seife explains how the discovery of dark energy in the late 1990s upended decades of assumptions about the fate of the universe. Rather than gravity slowing the expansion of the cosmos, distant supernovae observations revealed that the universe is accelerating apart, driven by a mysterious repulsive force that Einstein once predicted and then dismissed as a mistake.
