"Project Hyperion explores the feasibility of crewed interstellar travel via generation ships, using current and near-future technologies.
A generation ship is a hypothetical spacecraft designed for long-duration interstellar travel, where the journey may take centuries to complete.
The idea behind a generation ship is that the initial crew would live, reproduce, and die on the ship, with their descendants continuing the journey until reaching the destination.
These ships are often envisioned as self-sustaining ecosystems, featuring agriculture, habitation, and other necessary life-support systems to ensure survival across multiple generations. "
- All fine until they realize we evolved so intertwined with our home planet that there is no other place we could ever survive.colab

In this episode of The Joy of Why, Hertog speaks with co-host Janna Levin about his work and partnership with Hawking. Hertog, now at KU Leuven in Belgium, explains why they rejected the popular multiverse theory and instead explored the idea that the universe’s properties are a result of cosmological natural selection. According to Hertog and Hawking, these properties must be viewed through the lens of human observers, who are also the consequence of natural selection.
