Ep 160 - Supernatural Astronomer, Camille Flammarion

From his groundbreaking scientific achievements to his fearless exploration of ghostly encounters and psychic phenomena, French astronomer, Camille Flammarion challenged the boundaries of conventional thought. With a unique blend of scientific rigour and an open-minded approach, Flammarion challenged skeptics and ventured where few scientists dared to tread. But Flammarion's forays into the supernatural weren't without controversy. We explore how his unconventional beliefs and theories stirred debates within the scientific community, and what he ultimately thought was the best evidence of the existence of the supernatural.
