Was she the victim of foul play, an accident, or did she choose to disappear? In this episode of The Vanished, we retrace Diana’s last known movements, strange witness accounts, and the lingering mystery that has never been solved or.. was never meant to be solved.

×It is a great pleasure to welcome three men from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who are going to help me with a mystery, which is the mystery of the main asteroid belt. Every once in a while, you read about the possibility of an asteroid plunging into Earth, as has happened many times before in the history of our planet. The question is, will we be hit by something we see coming? Or will it come out of nowhere? And by the way, how do we know where the asteroids are and where they're going to be? What tells us? How do we ascertain that data? There is right now underway the building of a new telescope in Chile, the Vera Rubin telescope, that will be mapping the whole sky constantly and that is said to be a great boost for planetary defense. There is also a planned probe by NASA, NEO Surveyor, that's going to look for near-Earth objects. However, we have a new kid on the block, and these gentlemen are going to help introduce how it is that they came to publish in Nature: “ JWST sighting of decametre main-belt asteroids and view on meteorite sources ”—there's the breakthrough. What is it these scientists are looking for when they're looking small, and why?

LONDINIUM, 91 AD: Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) observe the events of the 21st century, which this week include a shocking meeting at the White House. The heated exchange between President Trump and President Zelenskyy was, in the words of Germanicus, “the necessary public theater in which the false narrative could meet and collide with actual reality and be destroyed.” As Romans, it can be puzzling to see how media works. There was reason to believe that the media worked magnificently when no one was in charge—you just let the cameras roll live. Ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty minutes in the Oval Office, heaps of reporters on all sides, the major cabinet figures arranged on either side of the president. The president of Ukraine momentarily in a talking press conference before the signing of a treaty, an arrangement which would permit the war to end in Ukraine, and then a luncheon. And yet, there it is. It reminds me of a shocking end of a World Series game. You can't believe it happened, but it's done. It's in the history books. Nobody planned it. The events of Friday are burned into history in Europe. And we as Romans observing from the 1st century AD can make some observations, certainly. I begin, however, to ask what this means for the war-fighting and for what appears to be a deteriorating scene for the Ukrainians that will only get worse because of a manpower shortage. Ukraine has oddly and stubbornly refused to draft 18-to-25-year-olds. Very odd given that they're asking for NATO or the United States to defend them with 18-to-25-year-olds, which is what makes up the military for the United States in the enlisted ranks. What should we make of Ukraine's conduct on Friday, keeping in mind the extremely difficult road ahead in these next months time for a spring offensive?

It is approximately the year 1200 AD. A man is in a tavern having a very good time, drinking heavily, and suddenly he gets a message written in runes on a piece of wood. The message is very clear: “Gyda says that you should go home.” How he responds to this is unknown, but he does write a message in return that, I'm told by the author Eleanor Barraclough, doesn't make any sense. However, we forgive him for being inebriated, and thus we're into the world that Eleanor takes on in her new book, Embers of the Hands: Hidden Histories of the Viking Age . I felt when Eleanor wrote about Gyda and her beloved, she was having an especially good time. What is it he was reading, these rune carved things? And how does she interpret them?

LONDINIUM, 91 AD : Gaius (John Batchelor) and Germanicus (Michael Vlahos) observe our contemporary politics from the 1st century. They discuss the ousting of leadership at the DoD, Trump’s approach to Russia and Ukraine, and the possibility of an awakening in Europe. It is not clear to Germanicus and myself that our audience in the 21st century is familiar with the Imperial Project and why we believe it works, why we have about 1500 years of history to demonstrate that it works. For instance, it puzzles a modern America when they learn that American males think about Rome every day. Why is that? Is it built into the DNA, or is it something to do with the institutions that America lives with? Britain inherited the institutions we inherited; the Americans inherited them from Britain. They are the emperor (sometimes called the king), the apparatus around the emperor (the military or the national security), and then the people (the Senate and the people of Rome are part of the Imperial Project). I begin with evidence of the Imperial Project underway in modern America. Within these last hours, the news has come that the new emperor (the president, Mr. Trump) has approved the switching of chairman of the Joint Chiefs, head of the legions, one F-16 pilot replaced by another F-16 pilot. The first F-16 pilot was chosen by Mr. Biden, Charles Q. Brown. This F-16 pilot, Dan “Razin” Caine, is chosen by the new emperor, Mr. Trump. This F-16 pilot is attached to a very famous story. On 9/11, there were two F-16s over the Potomac. They were the defense of the capital for the likelihood of another aircraft crashing into one of the institutions. It's never clear, but it's said that United Flight 93, the one that crashed in Pennsylvania, was headed to the White House. I don't see anywhere it being proved, but that is the assertion. So the story is that Caine was one of the pilots. The other pilot was a young woman named Penny. They were given the order to shoot down 93. They did not, according to the story, and United 93 crashed, thanks to the heroism and sacrifice of its passenger list. In any event, that is the new nominated chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. All the other senior positions are also now open because the Emperor (the Imperial project) is turning over the legions and reordering them. How does that help the Emperor? How is that an important part of the Imperial Project moving from the Republic to the Empire?

It is the spring of 1874 in Paris—April 15th. On Boulevard des Capucines, a studio associated with Nadar, a man named Nadar, is opening an exhibit of paintings by men who don't have an organizing principle yet. They call themselves Société anonyme . They are Degas, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Sisily, Cezanne—and especially Manet. They gather to show off their paintings quite outside the accepted way to do this at an enterprise called the Salon. I stop there and turn to the man who introduced me to all of these intricacies, Sebastian Smee. His new book is Paris in Ruins: Love, War, and the Birth of Impressionism . These are parallel universes. The politics of France in the middle of the 19th century, as America is recovering from the civil war, are as violent and unending as anything that can be seen in all of Europe and in America. At the same time, these painters, who are now all extremely world famous, are living their lives under the guns all the time. But this meeting in 1874 is their way of moving towards the future. To the men who gathered there, and one woman in particular, Berthe Morisot—what was their ambition? Why did they set up their own show, knowing that they were outside the accepted way of making money or being successful?

LONDINIUM CHRONICLES, 91 AD: Germanicus and Gaius discuss the reception of J.D. Vance in Europe; Trump’s upcoming negotiations with Vladimir Putin; Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency; and a lesson from 5th century Rome that could find application in the 21st century. Germanicus and I have a great deal to discuss. Because of the events of these last days, we now have a little clarity about the 21st century. As I understand it right now, the European leadership—and that would begin with Mr. Macron and include Schultz of Germany, certainly Starmer will be there from Britain—well, let's just say the European leadership will meet in Paris in what they call “an emergency meeting.” And the topic is the presentation by the vice president, Mr. Vance, at the Munich Security Conference that took the last three days. And the speech by Mr. Vance, which I recommend to everyone, identified Germany and Britain in particular, and Scotland, too, as suppressing free speech, as being unacceptable to Americans. The response from the audience was that Mr. Vance is unacceptable, and the Trump administration is unacceptable—“we came here to hear your plan about getting us out of trouble in Ukraine, and instead you're interfering in our election!” The German election is in one week on the 23rd. And the party that Mr. Vance named in particular was AfD (Alternative for Deutschland), led by Alice Weidel, a 46-year-old former banker. She worked for Goldman Sachs. She lives in Switzerland (openly with a wife from Sri Lanka), and she very carefully speaks every night about what she intends to do when she's chancellor, which is to deport the people who came to Germany between 2015 and 2020. And she's going to do that because she says Germany is not safe and they've lost control of our streets. There was an incident in Munich last week that illustrates perfectly what she's talking about. An Afghan refugee who had applied for asylum and was rejected, deliberately drove a vehicle into the back of a large crowd. Right now there are two dead out of the crowd, many injured. One of them is a two-year-old female, and Germany is enraged. At the same time, the leadership in Germany is enraged by Mr. Vance's remarks. The German defense minister, Pistorius, has condemned the vice president of the United States. The ironies here are so thick. In the meantime, we're told that immediately Mr. Trump will travel to Riyadh to meet with Vladimir Putin to discuss ending the Ukraine conflict and other matters having to do with what Mr. Trump calls “de-nuking.” There's also the matter of trade and sanctions. Secretary of State Rubio and others of the Trump administration are already meeting with, or have already met with, Lavrov and a team from Moscow. So this will be a bilateral confrontation between the two cold warriors of the 20th century, looking to “de-nuke” in the 21st century. Of note, and I'll end here, Mr. Zelensky is not invited to the Riyadh meeting. To my knowledge, none of the European leaders are invited to the Riyadh meeting. This is Alexander meeting with Napoleon in the middle of a river on a raft to decide the fate of Europe.
