Support via https://www.buymeacoffee.com/LoreandLegends As long as humans have been able to think, we've wondered whether or not we're alone in the universe.

This episode takes a look at Nikola Tesla's first discovery, his thoughts about it, and where we have gone since, and ends with a discussion about the perils of signaling into the unknown! Gods, Aliens, real History, and an Abyss, its all here. Turn the lights off, and be filled with wonder.....and terror.... Like, share, and review, it really helps the show!

The legend of Saint George and the Dragon, and an account of his martyrdom in the Roman Empire that wold get him canonized as a saint in the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches.
