📜 Episode Summary:
Episode seven. What if humanity never looked up? No satellites, no Moon landing, no Star Wars—just an Earthbound existence. In this episode, we unravel how space exploration shaped technology, culture, and even our view of life itself. From ancient geocentrism to the modern Space Age, we explore what we’d lose without telescopes, GPS, and the search for extraterrestrial life.
Would we be stuck in a smaller, more superstitious world? Would sci-fi even exist? What industries would have thrived instead? And without the Pale Blue Dot perspective, would we even care about Earth’s fragility?
