1 00:00:04,170 --> 00:00:11,930 nothing 2 00:00:17,279 --> 00:00:14,190 we're live 3 00:00:20,190 --> 00:00:17,289 okay hello everybody hello everybody 4 00:00:23,429 --> 00:00:20,200 we're back this is our final hang up for 5 00:00:24,749 --> 00:00:23,439 the day at the 225th meeting American 6 00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:24,759 Astronomical Society my name is Tony 7 00:00:29,540 --> 00:00:27,369 Darnell I work at Space Telescope and so 8 00:00:33,030 --> 00:00:29,550 does my colleague carol christian she's 9 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:33,040 we she is the we're still here we're 10 00:00:35,910 --> 00:00:34,570 still showing you what's going on and 11 00:00:37,709 --> 00:00:35,920 what we'd like to do every time this day 12 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:37,719 is talk a little bit give you guys a 13 00:00:40,740 --> 00:00:39,250 recap of the meeting itself some of the 14 00:00:42,299 --> 00:00:40,750 things that we've learned in carol has 15 00:00:44,549 --> 00:00:42,309 gone around getting a bunch of swag so 16 00:00:47,100 --> 00:00:44,559 she's going to show you that as well we 17 00:00:48,330 --> 00:00:47,110 hope that you guys are enjoying these 18 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:48,340 things we're doing giving them to you 19 00:00:53,580 --> 00:00:50,050 i'm not monitoring comments or questions 20 00:00:55,860 --> 00:00:53,590 at this point because our colleague has 21 00:00:57,300 --> 00:00:55,870 had to go do something else so let's go 22 00:01:00,210 --> 00:00:57,310 ahead and a service with Carol okay 23 00:01:03,890 --> 00:01:00,220 first of all the rundown today there was 24 00:01:06,810 --> 00:01:03,900 a big emphasis actually on education 25 00:01:08,460 --> 00:01:06,820 astronomers love to talk about what they 26 00:01:11,550 --> 00:01:08,470 do and they love to be involved in 27 00:01:13,350 --> 00:01:11,560 education so there are many posters and 28 00:01:18,419 --> 00:01:13,360 presentations about education with 29 00:01:21,870 --> 00:01:18,429 astronomy and as usual there were also a 30 00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:21,880 lot of talks on exoplanet research and 31 00:01:26,580 --> 00:01:24,880 also a couple of press releases and so 32 00:01:28,050 --> 00:01:26,590 one of the press releases was from the 33 00:01:30,779 --> 00:01:28,060 Kepler project and they were talking 34 00:01:34,020 --> 00:01:30,789 about how they've been of course looking 35 00:01:36,510 --> 00:01:34,030 they've upped the number of planet 36 00:01:40,349 --> 00:01:36,520 candidates to something like 4,700 oh 37 00:01:43,679 --> 00:01:40,359 wow yeah and they have a handful that 38 00:01:45,449 --> 00:01:43,689 are earth-like so we've got some super 39 00:01:47,279 --> 00:01:45,459 Earths they're in the right place called 40 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:47,289 the habitable zone so they're in the 41 00:01:52,139 --> 00:01:49,450 right place to have water so of course 42 00:01:55,580 --> 00:01:52,149 follow-up observations will be done and 43 00:01:58,260 --> 00:01:55,590 in fact there was another presentation 44 00:02:00,839 --> 00:01:58,270 it was another present sorry there was 45 00:02:06,059 --> 00:02:00,849 another presentation that was about 46 00:02:09,359 --> 00:02:06,069 follow up on on planets and and they are 47 00:02:11,940 --> 00:02:09,369 looking for the confirmation of the size 48 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:11,950 and the atmospheres and they think they 49 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:14,050 have another one that might have be kind 50 00:02:18,059 --> 00:02:16,090 of like an earth-like planet 51 00:02:20,130 --> 00:02:18,069 but it's not confirmed but it's just a 52 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:20,140 teaser so that was that your press 53 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:21,370 release there's a difference between 54 00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:23,530 when you say up the couplers got a bun 55 00:02:28,140 --> 00:02:27,010 is up the number of panic experts what 56 00:02:30,839 --> 00:02:28,150 is it what does that mean exact that 57 00:02:35,699 --> 00:02:30,849 means that they have analyzed the data 58 00:02:38,430 --> 00:02:35,709 carefully and they have 4,700 object 59 00:02:42,300 --> 00:02:38,440 stars that have a brightness change 60 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:42,310 which could be due to a planet so then 61 00:02:47,190 --> 00:02:44,530 after that they have to continue to 62 00:02:51,059 --> 00:02:47,200 monitor and the reason that it takes so 63 00:02:53,220 --> 00:02:51,069 long to continue getting candidates is 64 00:02:56,850 --> 00:02:53,230 that when Kepler first started it stares 65 00:03:00,270 --> 00:02:56,860 at one part of the sky only and in the 66 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:00,280 first year they could detect planets 67 00:03:05,069 --> 00:03:02,890 that went around their parent star 68 00:03:06,630 --> 00:03:05,079 fairly rapidly so they'd see it many 69 00:03:09,479 --> 00:03:06,640 times because you have to see it many 70 00:03:11,430 --> 00:03:09,489 times before you say yeah it's 71 00:03:14,039 --> 00:03:11,440 repeatable looks like it could be a 72 00:03:16,530 --> 00:03:14,049 planet but now it's been in orbit for 73 00:03:19,289 --> 00:03:16,540 four years and so they're starting to 74 00:03:21,930 --> 00:03:19,299 detect planets that are further out that 75 00:03:24,059 --> 00:03:21,940 have probably gone round like only a 76 00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:24,069 couple of times so the longer they're up 77 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:26,680 there then the planet state detector 78 00:03:30,690 --> 00:03:28,690 further and further from the parent star 79 00:03:33,839 --> 00:03:30,700 and then we use ground-based and 80 00:03:36,270 --> 00:03:33,849 space-based telescopes to then go back 81 00:03:38,550 --> 00:03:36,280 and look at those objects and see if 82 00:03:42,150 --> 00:03:38,560 they can detect the planet itself its 83 00:03:43,289 --> 00:03:42,160 atmosphere or do deeper observations and 84 00:03:44,789 --> 00:03:43,299 it's important to remember also that 85 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:44,799 this is the Kepler date Kepler has 86 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:46,690 completed its main mission yes and this 87 00:03:50,550 --> 00:03:48,130 this is data they're still going through 88 00:03:53,670 --> 00:03:50,560 and coming up with even more candidates 89 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:53,680 now and Kepler uses the radio Vlad sorry 90 00:03:58,470 --> 00:03:56,530 the transit transit method to detect 91 00:04:00,120 --> 00:03:58,480 these dips and brightness as a planet 92 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:00,130 goes in front that's this primary way of 93 00:04:03,390 --> 00:04:01,810 doing it and from that they can get 94 00:04:05,129 --> 00:04:03,400 things like the size of the planet and 95 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:05,139 whether or not might have an atmosphere 96 00:04:07,309 --> 00:04:06,730 or not as well as how far away it might 97 00:04:09,349 --> 00:04:07,319 be from 98 00:04:11,649 --> 00:04:09,359 right so the things they can learn from 99 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:11,659 that so other things that go on besides 100 00:04:16,819 --> 00:04:15,450 the reporting of research posters which 101 00:04:19,699 --> 00:04:16,829 we talked about today was a big 102 00:04:22,969 --> 00:04:19,709 education poster day is that we have 103 00:04:24,950 --> 00:04:22,979 these town hall groupings where we talk 104 00:04:26,779 --> 00:04:24,960 about that astronomers get together talk 105 00:04:29,930 --> 00:04:26,789 about the facility so we're having a 106 00:04:32,089 --> 00:04:29,940 Hubble town hall on thursday tonight 107 00:04:35,719 --> 00:04:32,099 we're having a James Webb telescope Town 108 00:04:37,490 --> 00:04:35,729 Hall which I'll be recording but I won't 109 00:04:40,129 --> 00:04:37,500 be streaming it'll be posted later on 110 00:04:42,050 --> 00:04:40,139 our website later on so we had one today 111 00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:42,060 on the ground-based observatories 112 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:43,199 because there are many ground-based 113 00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:44,970 observatories and what new 114 00:04:48,589 --> 00:04:46,710 instrumentation are being put on that 115 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:48,599 some pretty exciting stuff they're doing 116 00:04:54,350 --> 00:04:50,970 some large surveys from the ground and 117 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:54,360 they're also doing some spectroscopy 118 00:04:58,610 --> 00:04:56,130 which they can do know that the 119 00:05:00,860 --> 00:04:58,620 advantage of ground-based observatory is 120 00:05:03,379 --> 00:05:00,870 that in a couple of years you can build 121 00:05:06,260 --> 00:05:03,389 a brand new brand new instrument with 122 00:05:09,140 --> 00:05:06,270 new technology and and pretty large 123 00:05:11,060 --> 00:05:09,150 format so they can be heavier than the 124 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:11,070 stuff we put in space read last night 125 00:05:14,689 --> 00:05:12,570 remember they had the thirty meter 126 00:05:17,510 --> 00:05:14,699 telescope never had I've had a big 127 00:05:21,710 --> 00:05:17,520 banquet kind of thing The Meters really 128 00:05:24,499 --> 00:05:21,720 big really big hardware big pieces of 129 00:05:27,129 --> 00:05:24,509 glass and big instrumentation but 130 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:27,139 another thing I wanted to share with you 131 00:05:36,050 --> 00:05:31,289 that is a feature of these meetings as 132 00:05:39,589 --> 00:05:36,060 all trade shows and meetings is fun 133 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:39,599 stuff which is that you can pick up at 134 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:42,330 the various booths around the room that 135 00:05:50,089 --> 00:05:47,250 reminds you of different kinds of of the 136 00:05:51,239 --> 00:05:50,099 different organizations that are here so 137 00:05:58,949 --> 00:05:51,249 this 138 00:06:00,659 --> 00:05:58,959 piece of schwag is actually from a 139 00:06:03,689 --> 00:06:00,669 little company called Eureka that 140 00:06:09,350 --> 00:06:03,699 supports research and astronomy oh here 141 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:15,780 so it's science on top okay that's 142 00:06:22,620 --> 00:06:19,210 enough so then so there's there's also 143 00:06:24,510 --> 00:06:22,630 an unlimited quantity of handouts so 144 00:06:27,780 --> 00:06:24,520 there are business cards there are these 145 00:06:31,170 --> 00:06:27,790 kind of cards this one happens to be 146 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:31,180 about spectroscopy education there's 147 00:06:35,129 --> 00:06:32,770 also what was that I saw that I don't 148 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:35,139 know this here but this thing is really 149 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:37,090 cool you should get one Tony you put it 150 00:06:43,409 --> 00:06:39,490 around the handle on your briefcase or 151 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:43,419 Oh luggage because no one else has these 152 00:06:47,460 --> 00:06:45,490 so it's really easy for me to find my 153 00:06:50,250 --> 00:06:47,470 luggage and it has the name of the 154 00:06:54,020 --> 00:06:50,260 organization Associated university so 155 00:06:57,330 --> 00:06:54,030 there's what that was it first Microsoft 156 00:07:03,690 --> 00:06:57,340 had the red and blue 3d glasses that you 157 00:07:08,430 --> 00:07:03,700 can use worldwide telescope we have pins 158 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:08,440 we have our HST and our jwst pins as his 159 00:07:16,350 --> 00:07:13,570 as well there's also bookmarks are fun 160 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:16,360 because they're cute but also because 161 00:07:20,969 --> 00:07:18,970 they give you lots of information about 162 00:07:23,279 --> 00:07:20,979 the organization that made the bookmark 163 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:23,289 so there's educational stuff this is a 164 00:07:27,900 --> 00:07:25,330 digital library there are booked 165 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:27,910 companies there's that stuff there are 166 00:07:32,580 --> 00:07:30,250 stickers what's it say you want you your 167 00:07:35,219 --> 00:07:32,590 Pluto the year on Pluto this is the year 168 00:07:36,980 --> 00:07:35,229 that as you as you as you all smart 169 00:07:39,719 --> 00:07:36,990 people know and have been following that 170 00:07:40,980 --> 00:07:39,729 there's a probe going to Pluto it's 171 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:40,990 going to be out there pretty soon 172 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:43,330 looking at Pluto and this is an 173 00:07:49,020 --> 00:07:45,370 advertisement for that mission you can 174 00:07:51,540 --> 00:07:49,030 collect probably a thousand stickers 175 00:07:54,510 --> 00:07:51,550 from the various places or admissions 176 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:54,520 yeah I got a w first one this is post at 177 00:08:01,170 --> 00:07:56,650 notes for a ground-based telescope that 178 00:08:03,930 --> 00:08:01,180 will be depressing come online large 179 00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:03,940 synoptic survey telescope also the 180 00:08:06,470 --> 00:08:05,620 astrophysics data system which does 181 00:08:09,830 --> 00:08:06,480 public 182 00:08:13,220 --> 00:08:09,840 patient's there's a screen cleaner for 183 00:08:19,330 --> 00:08:13,230 your iphone there's a key ring from 184 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:19,340 Hawaii which has a surfboard their pens 185 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:26,370 there's candy there's mac nuts mmm more 186 00:08:31,820 --> 00:08:29,850 pins chocolate is my favorite more pens 187 00:08:34,400 -->

190 00:08:42,380 --> 00:08:39,840 and sure enough they put their logo on 191 00:08:46,940 --> 00:08:42,390 it so when you charge your phone you 192 00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:46,950 won't forget them and I think I think 193 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:49,530 well I have more chocolate egg like lots 194 00:08:56,980 --> 00:08:51,450 of chocolate there's other kinds of food 195 00:09:02,540 --> 00:08:56,990 and last but not least sorry is also a 196 00:09:05,090 --> 00:09:02,550 lighted pen which changes color which if 197 00:09:08,060 --> 00:09:05,100 you still use pencil and paper or 198 00:09:10,610 --> 00:09:08,070 post-it notes if you still use pencil 199 00:09:12,650 --> 00:09:10,620 and paper so anyway oh yeah and then a 200 00:09:14,330 --> 00:09:12,660 pencil I don't even know where there is 201 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:14,340 a pencil for you see that first night 202 00:09:22,490 --> 00:09:19,530 you would you have a bright pencil from 203 00:09:24,650 --> 00:09:22,500 from era sebo so
