Entropy Rising
Entropy Rising is a science fiction podcast and futurism podcast that explores the real science behind the future of humanity.
Hosted by Jacob Hyatt and Lucas, this sci-fi podcast breaks down topics like space exploration, Dyson swarms, interstellar travel, AI, and advanced civilizations using real engineering and physics.
If you’re looking for a science fiction podcast that goes beyond stories and asks what’s actually possible, this show connects speculative ideas to real-world science.
Each episode covers big questions like:
- Could we colonize Venus or Mars?
- What would a Dyson swarm actually look like?
- Are we alone in the universe?
- How would space warfare really work?
Whether you’re into speculative fiction, engineering podcasts, or space exploration podcasts, Entropy Rising gives you grounded, no-BS explanations of the future.
New episodes explore the intersection of science fiction, technology, and reality, built for listeners who want more than surface-level takes.
