He's considered one of the most brilliant scientific minds of our time: Dr. Michio Kaku — renowned astrophysicist, futurist, and co-founder of string theory, sits down with “Truth of the Matter” host Natasha Zouves.
He explores Elon Musk’s bold timeline to settle Mars — and the extraordinary technologies that could make it possible, including satellites designed to melt the planet’s polar ice caps and create life-sustaining water, literally terraforming the red planet.
Professor Kaku also weighs in on the future of artificial intelligence — what excites him, and what he believes could become one of the greatest threats we face. He shares powerful insights into the rise of UAPs and what action he believes humanity must take in response.
And finally, we dive into one of the most provocative ideas in modern physics: the multiverse. Could there be countless versions of you, of all of us, running in parallel universes we may never touch? Dr. Kaku breaks down the science.
This is a conversation about the future — of space, technology, and the very nature of reality.
