The future of warfare is heading towards a battle between software engineers rather than soldiers and pilots. World superpowers are pursuing an arms race to develop super swarm drones, which some have identified as weapons of mass destruction (WMD).

Paul B. Rimmer is one of the scientists who contributed to the discovery of a potential biomarker (phosphine) in the atmosphere of Venus. In this podcast we explore what does this finding actually mean and go through the details of their publication ‘Phosphine gas in the cloud decks of Venus’. Paul details the journey of this discovery lead by Prof. Jane S. Greaves, which took almost 4 years and involved a large collaboration including Cardiff University, the University of Manchester, the MIT, Kyoto Sangyo University, the Imperial College, the Open University, and the East Asian Observatory. Paul explains that we do not know any abiotic PH3 production routes in Venus’s atmosphere, clouds, surface and subsurface, or from lightning, volcanic or meteoritic delivery. Paul explores the possibility that PH3 could either originate from unknown photochemistry or geochemistry, or, building upon a previous work by one of the co-authors of this work (Clara Sousa-Silva), from the presence of life. Finally Paul lays down a roadmap for future investigations to better understand the origin of phosphine on Venus involving a tandem work between laboratory measurements and ground-based telescope observations.

We discuss our recent visit to a huge unexcavated archaeological site in the territory of Las Plassas (Sardinia, Italy). We generated a series of aerial maps using a DJI Inspire 1 drone with an X5R camera mounting the standard 15mm lens and with the help of an app called DroneDeploy. The maps suggest the presence of cropmarks, i.e. man-made structures surround the site. I will walk you through the mapping process and also discuss how aerial photography can be a great tool for archaeological surveys.

The United Arab Emirates was established in 1971. However, the constituent elements of the country have much deeper roots. Successive waves of migrants have settled in the lands of the Emirates over the past 10,000 years. This short presentation will explore the main episodes of migration and discuss the resulting synthesis – both ‘melting pot’ and ‘mosaic’ – which defines the national character of the Emirates. It is further argued that a distinct regional identity existed from early times and that this provided a solid foundation on which to build a successful nation state. Dr Timothy Power is an archaeologist and historian focusing on Arabia and the Islamic world. He is a consultant to the Abu Dhabi Department of Culture and Tourism and freelancer for The National newspaper. His forthcoming book ‘A History of the Emirati People’ will be published in 2021 to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the Emirates.

For many outsiders, the United Arab Emirates is seen as a land of deserts and camels – and the dramatic modernity that has followed on from the discovery of oil and gas. In his talk "Not Just Desert, but 9,000 Years of Trade" Peter Hellyer explains that UAE's history is much more diverse. Yes – there are deserts and camels, but there is also a heritage of nearly 10,000 years of international trade. There is the earliest evidence of a pearling industry, mining and exporting of copper 5,000 years ago and sailing to China 2,000 years ago. That interaction with the outside world over generations lies at the heart of the UAE and of its culture of tolerance today.

If you landed here it’s probably because you think CFast 2.0 cards are too expensive and you are looking for an alternative. You certainly need a CFast card if you want to shot in raw with a cinema camera, such as the Canon C200 or the Blackmagic Ursa Mini, but also. The CFast needs to have a relatively high write speed (in the order of 500 Mbps).
