1 00:00:09,910 --> 00:00:07,030 welcome back we are 2 00:00:12,310 --> 00:00:09,920 once again live on nasa tv 3 00:00:14,070 --> 00:00:12,320 from the asteroid initiative idea 4 00:00:17,029 --> 00:00:14,080 synthesis workshop here at the lunar and 5 00:00:20,710 --> 00:00:17,039 planetary institute it's our third and 6 00:00:22,790 --> 00:00:20,720 final day we had a really exciting set 7 00:00:25,349 --> 00:00:22,800 of presentations this morning about next 8 00:00:27,189 --> 00:00:25,359 generation engagement some fantastic 9 00:00:28,470 --> 00:00:27,199 visualizations 10 00:00:31,269 --> 00:00:28,480 and we have 11 00:00:33,670 --> 00:00:31,279 not quite a half hour now to engage in 12 00:00:35,270 --> 00:00:33,680 some discussion and thinking hopefully 13 00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:35,280 the presentations have sparked some 14 00:00:41,030 --> 00:00:38,800 ideas both within the audience here 15 00:00:43,990 --> 00:00:41,040 as well as 16 00:00:47,029 --> 00:00:44,000 out on the on the net our hashtag again 17 00:00:51,029 --> 00:00:47,039 for those that have questions it's 18 00:00:53,189 --> 00:00:51,039 hashtag asteroid gc so 19 00:00:54,869 --> 00:00:53,199 join us in this conversation 20 00:00:58,069 --> 00:00:54,879 so 21 00:01:00,950 --> 00:00:58,079 next generation engagement saw 22 00:01:03,110 --> 00:01:00,960 some fantastic visualizations 23 00:01:05,590 --> 00:01:03,120 and i think we started to get a sense 24 00:01:07,350 --> 00:01:05,600 that there there is an opportunity for 25 00:01:09,750 --> 00:01:07,360 people to build on 26 00:01:12,070 --> 00:01:09,760 and plug into those systems and play 27 00:01:13,590 --> 00:01:12,080 with those systems and i'm wondering we 28 00:01:16,630 --> 00:01:13,600 didn't really get to dig into that 29 00:01:17,670 --> 00:01:16,640 aspect as much and so 30 00:01:19,910 --> 00:01:17,680 both 31 00:01:22,230 --> 00:01:19,920 eric and david if if you might 32 00:01:23,270 --> 00:01:22,240 talk a little bit about 33 00:01:25,030 --> 00:01:23,280 how 34 00:01:26,950 --> 00:01:25,040 moving forward because 35 00:01:28,950 --> 00:01:26,960 we're going to end in about a half hour 36 00:01:31,590 --> 00:01:28,960 we're going to have a plenary session 37 00:01:33,429 --> 00:01:31,600 we're going to go home and 38 00:01:34,230 --> 00:01:33,439 i'm going to feel like we accomplished a 39 00:01:36,230 --> 00:01:34,240 lot 40 00:01:38,950 --> 00:01:36,240 but we need to keep moving and we have a 41 00:01:41,030 --> 00:01:38,960 wiki that's gathering ideas but how are 42 00:01:42,389 --> 00:01:41,040 we going to be able to keep folks 43 00:01:44,469 --> 00:01:42,399 engaged 44 00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:44,479 and utilize these systems that you've 45 00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:46,560 already got started 46 00:01:50,069 --> 00:01:48,000 so that they can feel like they can 47 00:01:53,510 --> 00:01:50,079 continue to participate once once we 48 00:01:57,830 --> 00:01:53,520 leave here so can i ask you to dig in on 49 00:02:02,149 --> 00:01:59,830 multiple mics yeah 50 00:02:05,270 --> 00:02:02,159 now i think first 51 00:02:06,310 --> 00:02:05,280 i think people don't understand quite 52 00:02:11,190 --> 00:02:06,320 that 53 00:02:13,830 --> 00:02:11,200 to them on the web from nasa and you 54 00:02:15,910 --> 00:02:13,840 know by making sure that we 55 00:02:17,589 --> 00:02:15,920 uh make people aware of that give them 56 00:02:19,190 --> 00:02:17,599 links to where they can get those things 57 00:02:20,309 --> 00:02:19,200 you know and those are images that they 58 00:02:22,229 --> 00:02:20,319 can get 59 00:02:24,470 --> 00:02:22,239 every day they're updated there's 60 00:02:26,710 --> 00:02:24,480 real-time data that comes out okay and i 61 00:02:28,869 --> 00:02:26,720 think that's important uh the second is 62 00:02:31,030 --> 00:02:28,879 that there are also videos the same way 63 00:02:33,990 --> 00:02:31,040 but probably the most important thing is 64 00:02:36,070 --> 00:02:34,000 that there are models nasa is keeping a 65 00:02:38,470 --> 00:02:36,080 set of models you know of planetary 66 00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:38,480 objects like asteroids but of spacecraft 67 00:02:43,350 --> 00:02:40,480 as well okay and those are things that 68 00:02:46,470 --> 00:02:43,360 with html5 you can actually put in your 69 00:02:49,509 --> 00:02:46,480 browser and interact with you in real 70 00:02:51,750 --> 00:02:49,519 time they're also you know open source 71 00:02:54,309 --> 00:02:51,760 software that's free where you can make 72 00:02:56,070 --> 00:02:54,319 your own videos and visualizations you 73 00:02:58,309 --> 00:02:56,080 know and then there's also things that 74 00:03:00,550 --> 00:02:58,319 come with operating systems both for the 75 00:03:03,670 --> 00:03:00,560 pc and for the mac you know that people 76 00:03:06,229 --> 00:03:03,680 can use okay and so it's not like they 77 00:03:09,270 --> 00:03:06,239 have to just to look at the images we 78 00:03:12,630 --> 00:03:09,280 have or look at the videos that nasa 79 00:03:13,589 --> 00:03:12,640 makes or that nasa and its partners make 80 00:03:16,550 --> 00:03:13,599 these are things they can make 81 00:03:19,350 --> 00:03:16,560 themselves and so to me 82 00:03:22,550 --> 00:03:19,360 a few links get them started uh and 83 00:03:25,110 --> 00:03:22,560 probably a few short tutorials you know 84 00:03:26,630 --> 00:03:25,120 even one pagers you know uh would help a 85 00:03:28,630 --> 00:03:26,640 lot and maybe we can even start that 86 00:03:30,789 --> 00:03:28,640 dialogue on your wiki page 87 00:03:33,670 --> 00:03:30,799 so that people can say oh how do i make 88 00:03:35,190 --> 00:03:33,680 a movie or how do i make a mosaic or how 89 00:03:37,110 --> 00:03:35,200 do i make a map 90 00:03:41,190 --> 00:03:37,120 and all those things are within the 91 00:03:45,350 --> 00:03:41,200 capability of anyone that has a laptop 92 00:03:46,869 --> 00:03:45,360 or a home pc or even a game box so you 93 00:03:49,190 --> 00:03:46,879 know those those are the kind of things 94 00:03:50,789 --> 00:03:49,200 people can do right now today 95 00:03:55,429 --> 00:03:50,799 so 96 00:03:57,110 --> 00:03:55,439 far is the uh distance from 97 00:03:58,869 --> 00:03:57,120 3d model to 98 00:04:00,309 --> 00:03:58,879 printing that thing out on a 3d printer 99 00:04:02,149 --> 00:04:00,319 that they've got at their local tech 100 00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:02,159 shop is it actually is the 3d model what 101 00:04:06,309 --> 00:04:03,920 they would need to take it to the 102 00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:06,319 makerbot or is there a next step between 103 00:04:09,910 --> 00:04:08,080 what you've created and actually 104 00:04:10,869 --> 00:04:09,920 creating a physical prototype of that 105 00:04:13,110 --> 00:04:10,879 object 106 00:04:15,110 --> 00:04:13,120 yeah okay 107 00:04:18,550 --> 00:04:15,120 that's a very good question and 108 00:04:21,189 --> 00:04:18,560 in theory okay i think einstein is the 109 00:04:22,870 --> 00:04:21,199 person who's famous for this quote uh in 110 00:04:24,870 --> 00:04:22,880 theory practice and theory are the same 111 00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:24,880 thing in practice they're not 112 00:04:29,670 --> 00:04:27,280 okay and uh so 113 00:04:32,150 --> 00:04:29,680 so in theory yes you could just do that 114 00:04:33,510 --> 00:04:32,160 in practice the big the only problem 115 00:04:34,390 --> 00:04:33,520 about it is 116 00:04:36,790 --> 00:04:34,400 uh 117 00:04:38,710 --> 00:04:36,800 if you have a model of something that's 118 00:04:40,310 --> 00:04:38,720 physically large if you're talking about 119 00:04:43,189 --> 00:04:40,320 a model something that's the size of the 120 00:04:45,590 --> 00:04:43,199 table or the chair no problem okay 121 00:04:47,350 --> 00:04:45,600 talking about a larger thing then 122 00:04:49,749 --> 00:04:47,360 the problem may be 123 00:04:51,670 --> 00:04:49,759 that you need to filter it down before 124 00:04:53,670 --> 00:04:51,680 you make the model and the reason is you 125 00:04:55,749 --> 00:04:53,680 may have too much detail 126 00:04:57,830 --> 00:04:55,759 and some of the the reason why too much 127 00:05:00,629 --> 00:04:57,840 detail is not your friend 128 00:05:03,270 --> 00:05:00,639 is because the ability to make a 3d 129 00:05:06,469 --> 00:05:03,280 physical model is limited by you know 130 00:05:08,870 --> 00:05:06,479 what the 3d model is the smallest volume 131 00:05:11,670 --> 00:05:08,880 element that it can do and if your model 132 00:05:13,670 --> 00:05:11,680 is much higher resolution than that some 133 00:05:15,270 --> 00:05:13,680 of the things will disappear 134 00:05:17,590 --> 00:05:15,280 so that means they won't be connected 135 00:05:21,189 --> 00:05:17,600 anymore so the hinge on the door may be 136 00:05:22,950 --> 00:05:21,199 missing okay and so so all it needs 137 00:05:25,749 --> 00:05:22,960 though is kind of a 138 00:05:27,749 --> 00:05:25,759 a thinning so you just need a thinning 139 00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:27,759 step to make sure that you're at the 140 00:05:32,230 --> 00:05:29,840 resolution that you're going to print at 141 00:05:35,350 --> 00:05:32,240 but you know but other than that yes no 142 00:05:39,430 --> 00:05:37,590 just to follow up to 143 00:05:41,749 --> 00:05:39,440 your 144 00:05:43,270 --> 00:05:41,759 answer 145 00:05:47,749 --> 00:05:43,280 is it 146 00:05:50,150 --> 00:05:47,759 a fair dream to think that we could have 147 00:05:52,870 --> 00:05:50,160 quote unquote shops people in their 148 00:05:54,150 --> 00:05:52,880 bedrooms with their laptops all over the 149 00:05:57,110 --> 00:05:54,160 world 150 00:06:00,469 --> 00:05:57,120 producing videos based on real data and 151 00:06:01,590 --> 00:06:00,479 models and designing it themselves 152 00:06:04,070 --> 00:06:01,600 like 153 00:06:06,469 --> 00:06:04,080 tomorrow if we had the right tutorials 154 00:06:10,550 --> 00:06:06,479 available we have the material for them 155 00:06:14,150 --> 00:06:13,350 absolutely yes the answer is yes and and 156 00:06:16,469 --> 00:06:14,160 uh 157 00:06:18,790 --> 00:06:16,479 the only prohibition doing is doing it 158 00:06:20,309 --> 00:06:18,800 okay but yes and 159 00:06:23,110 --> 00:06:20,319 and i would certainly think that might 160 00:06:26,390 --> 00:06:23,120 be a good thing for this grand challenge 161 00:06:30,309 --> 00:06:27,990 thank you 162 00:06:31,749 --> 00:06:30,319 dave great thanks um just in response to 163 00:06:34,950 --> 00:06:31,759 your question about what can people do 164 00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:34,960 now um i didn't mention this in the talk 165 00:06:37,909 --> 00:06:36,880 but um eyes on the solar system is part 166 00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:37,919 of a suite 167 00:06:43,749 --> 00:06:41,120 which um is a trio of of eyes on the 168 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:43,759 earth eyes on the solar system and also 169 00:06:49,189 --> 00:06:46,560 eyes on the exoplanets and so it's it's 170 00:06:51,110 --> 00:06:49,199 really cool i encourage everyone um to 171 00:06:53,350 --> 00:06:51,120 go and just you know google either one 172 00:06:54,950 --> 00:06:53,360 of those um they'll all come up as a set 173 00:06:57,589 --> 00:06:54,960 and you can choose which one you'd like 174 00:07:00,390 --> 00:06:57,599 to see but um it's a lot of fun 175 00:07:02,309 --> 00:07:00,400 exploring and um i think one thing that 176 00:07:04,469 --> 00:07:02,319 would be nice to add to the wiki is is 177 00:07:06,070 --> 00:07:04,479 what would you do with it you know what 178 00:07:08,230 --> 00:07:06,080 would you like to add to it what would 179 00:07:10,150 --> 00:07:08,240 you like to do that you can't do how do 180 00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:10,160 you feel about the interface is it easy 181 00:07:14,469 --> 00:07:12,240 enough i mean ideally 182 00:07:15,670 --> 00:07:14,479 this is the google earth for the entire 183 00:07:17,909 --> 00:07:15,680 solar system 184 00:07:21,110 --> 00:07:17,919 it you know uh for for all of the 185 00:07:23,749 --> 00:07:21,120 exoplanets and and to be able to 186 00:07:25,909 --> 00:07:23,759 to have the ease of participation i 187 00:07:27,270 --> 00:07:25,919 think is a really interesting thing and 188 00:07:29,510 --> 00:07:27,280 it's so flexible that we can do all 189 00:07:31,110 --> 00:07:29,520 kinds of stuff just standing outside 190 00:07:32,870 --> 00:07:31,120 you know i get a lot of great ideas of 191 00:07:34,309 --> 00:07:32,880 what would be really cool to do and i 192 00:07:36,230 --> 00:07:34,319 think that 193 00:07:39,110 --> 00:07:36,240 all of those things are going to be 194 00:07:40,950 --> 00:07:39,120 a really great thing to discuss 195 00:07:42,629 --> 00:07:40,960 especially you know over the wiki and to 196 00:07:44,550 --> 00:07:42,639 think about 197 00:07:48,469 --> 00:07:44,560 because i think it's a tool that's 198 00:07:50,070 --> 00:07:48,479 waiting for um for something um 199 00:07:51,909 --> 00:07:50,080 it's already interesting it's already 200 00:07:55,189 --> 00:07:51,919 great but there's a lot of capabilities 201 00:08:00,469 --> 00:07:57,510 we have question uh 202 00:08:04,390 --> 00:08:02,869 um i was just gonna say um i know that a 203 00:08:06,390 --> 00:08:04,400 lot of the tools you use are kind of off 204 00:08:08,629 --> 00:08:06,400 the shelf and many of them may even have 205 00:08:10,869 --> 00:08:08,639 demo versions certainly did at one time 206 00:08:12,469 --> 00:08:10,879 uh getting links to those and stuff and 207 00:08:13,430 --> 00:08:12,479 maybe some easy 208 00:08:15,110 --> 00:08:13,440 uh 209 00:08:16,710 --> 00:08:15,120 you know ingest capability for your 210 00:08:18,790 --> 00:08:16,720 models might get people you know maybe 211 00:08:20,150 --> 00:08:18,800 this is the place is the wiki that 212 00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:20,160 people could immediately upload those 213 00:08:26,230 --> 00:08:21,520 models and play with them almost in the 214 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:35,110 a question 215 00:08:40,310 --> 00:08:37,589 going forward would we be able to use 216 00:08:41,829 --> 00:08:40,320 the emerging micro satellite technology 217 00:08:44,149 --> 00:08:41,839 to try and 218 00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:44,159 physically tag some of the known objects 219 00:08:47,269 --> 00:08:44,880 so 220 00:08:49,110 --> 00:08:47,279 we could receive a more real-time 221 00:08:50,949 --> 00:08:49,120 telemetry from them without having to 222 00:08:53,190 --> 00:08:50,959 directly 223 00:08:55,509 --> 00:08:53,200 image those and plot them 224 00:08:57,190 --> 00:08:55,519 and would it be useful to use that to 225 00:08:59,030 --> 00:08:57,200 try and detect the 226 00:09:01,829 --> 00:08:59,040 gravitational tugs of the unknown 227 00:09:03,030 --> 00:09:01,839 objects to give us an idea of where 228 00:09:05,590 --> 00:09:03,040 where to look 229 00:09:06,389 --> 00:09:05,600 and to be able to use those interactions 230 00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:06,399 to 231 00:09:11,750 --> 00:09:09,839 augment the mathematical models and the 232 00:09:14,310 --> 00:09:11,760 like and and some did all the 233 00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:14,320 visualization techniques with a more 234 00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:16,959 real-time data 235 00:09:21,350 --> 00:09:18,880 i will throw that out to the crowd 236 00:09:24,070 --> 00:09:21,360 that's smarter than me all i can say is 237 00:09:26,710 --> 00:09:24,080 that i've had conversations with folks 238 00:09:27,509 --> 00:09:26,720 that have looked at 239 00:10:36,550 --> 00:09:27,519 a 240 00:10:41,910 --> 00:10:36,560 you know 241 00:10:43,910 --> 00:10:41,920 elementary schools chipset tracking this 242 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:43,920 asteroid that got named because somebody 243 00:10:47,430 --> 00:10:45,440 was working like we talked about 244 00:10:48,870 --> 00:10:47,440 yesterday so i mean it all begins to 245 00:10:50,870 --> 00:10:48,880 flow together but i think we you know 246 00:10:52,550 --> 00:10:50,880 that kind of thing right david yes sir 247 00:10:54,310 --> 00:10:52,560 yep sir 248 00:10:57,750 --> 00:10:54,320 anyway so yeah we think that that that's 249 00:11:01,750 --> 00:11:00,389 so i have another question for the group 250 00:11:04,630 --> 00:11:01,760 when you think about what next 251 00:11:05,750 --> 00:11:04,640 generation engagement means it can mean 252 00:11:08,790 --> 00:11:05,760 things like 253 00:11:10,710 --> 00:11:08,800 really futuristic engagement methods so 254 00:11:12,310 --> 00:11:10,720 real gaming or 255 00:11:14,069 --> 00:11:12,320 some of the advanced methods that we 256 00:11:15,990 --> 00:11:14,079 heard from earlier or it can literally 257 00:11:18,630 --> 00:11:16,000 mean the next generation 258 00:11:21,350 --> 00:11:18,640 and thinking about uh education as a key 259 00:11:23,190 --> 00:11:21,360 element of uh the initiative as well so 260 00:11:26,069 --> 00:11:23,200 to pivot a little bit are there any kind 261 00:11:28,949 --> 00:11:26,079 of thoughts or comments on um the way 262 00:11:30,550 --> 00:11:28,959 engaging the next generation um is an 263 00:11:31,590 --> 00:11:30,560 important component of this effort as 264 00:11:33,350 --> 00:11:31,600 well in addition to some of the 265 00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:33,360 activities that we heard from in the 266 00:11:38,470 --> 00:11:35,760 first presentation for student 267 00:11:40,550 --> 00:11:38,480 challenges and um also engaging students 268 00:11:50,949 --> 00:11:40,560 in content creation those types of uh 269 00:11:54,470 --> 00:11:52,870 if i can go backwards and speak to the 270 00:11:57,670 --> 00:11:54,480 previous question 271 00:11:59,430 --> 00:11:57,680 as far as finding near-earth objects 272 00:12:01,509 --> 00:11:59,440 they're really only two ways to do it 273 00:12:04,310 --> 00:12:01,519 one is is visually 274 00:12:06,550 --> 00:12:04,320 infrared or visible seeing them and the 275 00:12:09,269 --> 00:12:06,560 other is if they hit the earth 276 00:12:11,110 --> 00:12:09,279 and so there's no mute they are too 277 00:12:12,550 --> 00:12:11,120 small to have mutual gravitational 278 00:12:22,230 --> 00:12:12,560 interactions that would allow you to 279 00:12:25,590 --> 00:12:23,350 well i was just going to make a 280 00:12:27,509 --> 00:12:25,600 statement that uh i think it was kevin 281 00:12:29,110 --> 00:12:27,519 that said earlier is that 282 00:12:32,150 --> 00:12:29,120 there are these programs that already 283 00:12:35,350 --> 00:12:32,160 exist that are like first uh that are 284 00:12:38,150 --> 00:12:35,360 huge and uh lunar bots and 285 00:12:39,670 --> 00:12:38,160 i think one place to start is with that 286 00:12:42,550 --> 00:12:39,680 group of people and trying to get the 287 00:12:44,949 --> 00:12:42,560 asteroid uh 288 00:12:45,829 --> 00:12:44,959 awareness up but there may be others out 289 00:12:50,230 --> 00:12:45,839 there 290 00:12:53,910 --> 00:12:50,240 things like that that we want to look at 291 00:12:55,829 --> 00:12:53,920 there's the conrad uh awards every year 292 00:12:58,150 --> 00:12:55,839 and i know that that nancy might be 293 00:13:00,550 --> 00:12:58,160 really interested in in partnering with 294 00:13:02,710 --> 00:13:00,560 us on something like this so we we 295 00:13:05,030 --> 00:13:02,720 should look at these established 296 00:13:06,710 --> 00:13:05,040 areas that are already tapping into the 297 00:13:08,629 --> 00:13:06,720 next generation 298 00:13:10,069 --> 00:13:08,639 and look at having like an asteroid 299 00:13:14,629 --> 00:13:10,079 overlay on it 300 00:13:17,829 --> 00:13:16,470 yeah it sure seems like the place to 301 00:13:19,430 --> 00:13:17,839 start with uh 302 00:13:21,030 --> 00:13:19,440 with outreach is with the programs that 303 00:13:22,550 --> 00:13:21,040 already have substantial outreach and 304 00:13:24,710 --> 00:13:22,560 just allowing them to fulfill their 305 00:13:26,069 --> 00:13:24,720 potential but you know i'm struck by the 306 00:13:27,430 --> 00:13:26,079 fact that there are these um you know 307 00:13:30,310 --> 00:13:27,440 we've got mathematical models of 308 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:30,320 spacecrafts and uh you know um uh 309 00:13:35,110 --> 00:13:32,959 celestial bodies and um i know that 310 00:13:36,870 --> 00:13:35,120 there are these uh you know kind of 311 00:13:38,389 --> 00:13:36,880 graphical programming environments or 312 00:13:39,829 --> 00:13:38,399 creating animation environments that 313 00:13:41,430 --> 00:13:39,839 even preschoolers are not not 314 00:13:43,189 --> 00:13:41,440 preschoolers but you know elementary 315 00:13:45,829 --> 00:13:43,199 schoolers are using these days i think 316 00:13:48,550 --> 00:13:45,839 to incorporate nasa data sets into those 317 00:13:50,550 --> 00:13:48,560 or even have nasa branded you know 318 00:13:52,470 --> 00:13:50,560 build your spacecraft to explore an 319 00:13:55,350 --> 00:13:52,480 asteroid whatever seems like a good way 320 00:13:56,790 --> 00:13:55,360 to start and i think the 321 00:13:58,470 --> 00:13:56,800 opportunity for somebody out there 322 00:14:00,790 --> 00:13:58,480 whether it's an app builder or somebody 323 00:14:03,189 --> 00:14:00,800 else in the space to allow it you know 324 00:14:06,550 --> 00:14:03,199 to allow the data from jpl for instance 325 00:14:08,389 --> 00:14:06,560 to turn into a a makerbot model i mean 326 00:14:09,910 --> 00:14:08,399 if if there isn't an off-the-shelf tool 327 00:14:11,350 --> 00:14:09,920 that does that already certainly there's 328 00:14:13,189 --> 00:14:11,360 somebody listening to this who could 329 00:14:14,949 --> 00:14:13,199 probably pretty easily construct one 330 00:14:17,030 --> 00:14:14,959 yeah and just make make the stuff 331 00:14:19,030 --> 00:14:17,040 available yeah 332 00:14:20,790 --> 00:14:19,040 i i agree with that i think um one thing 333 00:14:23,189 --> 00:14:20,800 that that 334 00:14:25,750 --> 00:14:23,199 i mean to allow the to the next 335 00:14:29,509 --> 00:14:25,760 generation especially whoever it is but 336 00:14:31,189 --> 00:14:29,519 to to have them act as participants in 337 00:14:32,870 --> 00:14:31,199 working with the information rather than 338 00:14:35,110 --> 00:14:32,880 just you know listening or rather than 339 00:14:36,150 --> 00:14:35,120 it just be one way um 340 00:14:38,069 --> 00:14:36,160 you know 341 00:14:39,110 --> 00:14:38,079 that's what games do so well i mean i 342 00:14:41,750 --> 00:14:39,120 see 343 00:14:43,509 --> 00:14:41,760 my next generation and eight-year-old uh 344 00:14:45,430 --> 00:14:43,519 just obsessed with minecraft and we were 345 00:14:48,470 --> 00:14:45,440 talking about that earlier and just the 346 00:14:50,710 --> 00:14:48,480 ability to just and they learned so much 347 00:14:51,590 --> 00:14:50,720 from it too 348 00:14:55,110 --> 00:14:51,600 in 349 00:14:57,829 --> 00:14:55,120 through that but it doesn't necessarily 350 00:14:59,269 --> 00:14:57,839 have to be that format but just allowing 351 00:15:02,389 --> 00:14:59,279 um 352 00:15:05,350 --> 00:15:02,399 them to be participants to have control 353 00:15:07,509 --> 00:15:05,360 and to allow for creativity and to allow 354 00:15:09,030 --> 00:15:07,519 for problem solving to exist 355 00:15:10,310 --> 00:15:09,040 within the construct of whatever is 356 00:15:12,710 --> 00:15:10,320 presented 357 00:15:14,389 --> 00:15:12,720 is a really great way to engage them and 358 00:15:16,470 --> 00:15:14,399 have them feel like they have ownership 359 00:15:18,870 --> 00:15:16,480 in the information and that is a really 360 00:15:21,750 --> 00:15:18,880 i think a strong thing and a great way 361 00:15:23,750 --> 00:15:21,760 to get people involved because um 362 00:15:26,150 --> 00:15:23,760 they feel like it's theirs and then once 363 00:15:27,590 --> 00:15:26,160 once they're in you know then they can 364 00:15:31,590 --> 00:15:27,600 they can build up like we were talking 365 00:15:35,749 --> 00:15:33,269 just another quick comment of course i 366 00:15:37,910 --> 00:15:35,759 spoke about um six weeks ago or so now 367 00:15:39,990 --> 00:15:37,920 and um in my talk i basically said i 368 00:15:41,829 --> 00:15:40,000 can't think of a better stem oriented 369 00:15:44,949 --> 00:15:41,839 project than teaching high school 370 00:15:46,870 --> 00:15:44,959 students to observe analyze and submit 371 00:15:49,189 --> 00:15:46,880 data on asteroid light curves or other 372 00:15:51,269 --> 00:15:49,199 asteroid observing opportunities it sure 373 00:15:53,670 --> 00:15:51,279 seems like it's kind of a 374 00:15:56,310 --> 00:15:53,680 it sounds so far out but the idea that 375 00:15:58,550 --> 00:15:56,320 there would be a a high school class 376 00:16:00,550 --> 00:15:58,560 that would teach you know 377 00:16:01,509 --> 00:16:00,560 science math students how to do this 378 00:16:03,269 --> 00:16:01,519 work 379 00:16:04,629 --> 00:16:03,279 i think it's a fantastic platform for 380 00:16:09,829 --> 00:16:04,639 teaching them all the fundamentals of 381 00:16:13,749 --> 00:16:12,230 you know i've been amazed by what jpl's 382 00:16:15,189 --> 00:16:13,759 doing and especially about this 383 00:16:17,350 --> 00:16:15,199 visualization 384 00:16:19,350 --> 00:16:17,360 one of the things um i've been going to 385 00:16:20,230 --> 00:16:19,360 the maker faire every year in san mateo 386 00:16:22,310 --> 00:16:20,240 and 387 00:16:24,790 --> 00:16:22,320 it seems to me that that community is 388 00:16:26,470 --> 00:16:24,800 really interested in 3d printing 389 00:16:28,790 --> 00:16:26,480 and if you could download those 390 00:16:30,470 --> 00:16:28,800 visualizations i'm not sure 391 00:16:31,910 --> 00:16:30,480 if it's you know it would be a big draw 392 00:16:34,310 --> 00:16:31,920 but if people 393 00:16:35,990 --> 00:16:34,320 see an asteroid or see that one's coming 394 00:16:36,949 --> 00:16:36,000 and they could download it and get a 3d 395 00:16:38,870 --> 00:16:36,959 model 396 00:16:40,629 --> 00:16:38,880 and might could use it as in the 397 00:16:41,910 --> 00:16:40,639 classroom or something like that it 398 00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:41,920 might be another 399 00:16:46,629 --> 00:16:44,160 another aspect of trying to get people 400 00:16:49,829 --> 00:16:46,639 involved in that community 401 00:16:51,749 --> 00:16:49,839 not to toot our own horn but 402 00:16:53,990 --> 00:16:51,759 grand challenge did have a presence at 403 00:16:57,509 --> 00:16:54,000 at the new york city maker faire 404 00:16:59,350 --> 00:16:57,519 and ames in fact matt reyes and and some 405 00:17:02,870 --> 00:16:59,360 of his cohorts 406 00:17:05,110 --> 00:17:02,880 did an incredible job of of printing out 407 00:17:07,669 --> 00:17:05,120 a handful of missions as well as 408 00:17:10,069 --> 00:17:07,679 asteroids that are available online to 409 00:17:12,150 --> 00:17:10,079 get the data like eric's talking about 410 00:17:13,029 --> 00:17:12,160 and then we had qr codes where people 411 00:17:16,710 --> 00:17:13,039 could 412 00:17:18,789 --> 00:17:16,720 absolutely right that community there's 413 00:17:21,669 --> 00:17:18,799 such a vibrancy in 414 00:17:23,990 --> 00:17:21,679 and a real interest in getting tangible 415 00:17:26,069 --> 00:17:24,000 and hands-on with the work so 416 00:17:28,309 --> 00:17:26,079 we continue to look 417 00:17:30,630 --> 00:17:28,319 at ways of engaging there and expect 418 00:17:32,950 --> 00:17:30,640 that we will be in san mateo 419 00:17:36,150 --> 00:17:32,960 uh with a presence 420 00:17:38,710 --> 00:17:36,160 so great thanks 421 00:17:40,789 --> 00:17:38,720 please i know uh my experiences with my 422 00:17:42,789 --> 00:17:40,799 own family and friends 423 00:17:44,549 --> 00:17:42,799 there's a lot of people out there that 424 00:17:47,270 --> 00:17:44,559 have the mindset that it's either too 425 00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:47,280 far out time wise or just generally you 426 00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:49,200 know what does it do for me now 427 00:17:52,789 --> 00:17:51,280 whereas it seems that the people who get 428 00:17:54,870 --> 00:17:52,799 into these kinds of things are people 429 00:17:56,870 --> 00:17:54,880 who are already interested 430 00:17:59,669 --> 00:17:56,880 and i think the best way to get more 431 00:18:01,270 --> 00:17:59,679 people involved is to find something 432 00:18:04,390 --> 00:18:01,280 that is 433 00:18:05,990 --> 00:18:04,400 closer time wise that they can see 434 00:18:08,390 --> 00:18:06,000 will affect them 435 00:18:10,630 --> 00:18:08,400 to give them a reason to start looking 436 00:18:13,029 --> 00:18:10,640 into this and getting involved because a 437 00:18:15,270 --> 00:18:13,039 lot of my family members are in 438 00:18:16,789 --> 00:18:15,280 intelligent minds but they just are not 439 00:18:18,630 --> 00:18:16,799 interested in anything that doesn't 440 00:18:20,470 --> 00:18:18,640 directly affect them so they don't even 441 00:18:22,630 --> 00:18:20,480 want to get involved 442 00:18:24,390 --> 00:18:22,640 yeah and that that raises a question i'd 443 00:18:27,350 --> 00:18:24,400 like to throw out to 444 00:18:30,870 --> 00:18:27,360 um the audience as a whole 445 00:18:33,669 --> 00:18:30,880 and it's one of barriers because it's 446 00:18:36,950 --> 00:18:33,679 it's easy for us to sit around and talk 447 00:18:39,350 --> 00:18:36,960 about this from our perspective um and 448 00:18:41,990 --> 00:18:39,360 i'm wondering from your own experience 449 00:18:43,909 --> 00:18:42,000 of of uh whether it's a project that 450 00:18:45,190 --> 00:18:43,919 you're working on or as a citizen and 451 00:18:47,190 --> 00:18:45,200 seeing something 452 00:18:49,990 --> 00:18:47,200 do you have a sense of barriers that we 453 00:18:52,950 --> 00:18:50,000 might be facing here because 454 00:18:54,870 --> 00:18:52,960 for us it's really important uh and we 455 00:18:57,750 --> 00:18:54,880 understand and as you say we're 456 00:18:59,990 --> 00:18:57,760 connected to it but but 457 00:19:00,870 --> 00:19:00,000 the the issue of barriers is one that i 458 00:19:03,190 --> 00:19:00,880 think 459 00:19:05,190 --> 00:19:03,200 is worth looking at and so 460 00:19:08,070 --> 00:19:05,200 is there a collective experience in the 461 00:19:10,789 --> 00:19:08,080 room that we can draw upon and say yeah 462 00:19:13,590 --> 00:19:10,799 this is maybe a way that we need to go 463 00:19:16,070 --> 00:19:13,600 whether it's near a term connection 464 00:19:19,350 --> 00:19:16,080 uh or something else i i'd love to hear 465 00:19:22,950 --> 00:19:20,070 yeah 466 00:19:25,590 --> 00:19:22,960 my thought is that you know uh we have a 467 00:19:26,950 --> 00:19:25,600 lot to compete with okay there's a lot 468 00:19:28,789 --> 00:19:26,960 of other things that draw people's 469 00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:28,799 attention okay 470 00:19:35,669 --> 00:19:31,440 on a day-to-day basis okay 471 00:19:36,950 --> 00:19:35,679 but we also have some advantages and 472 00:19:39,830 --> 00:19:36,960 i look for 473 00:19:42,390 --> 00:19:39,840 educatable moments or engageable moments 474 00:19:44,789 --> 00:19:42,400 okay and places 475 00:19:47,110 --> 00:19:44,799 for example you know while people might 476 00:19:49,270 --> 00:19:47,120 not be interested in asteroids you know 477 00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:49,280 when they're attending a rock concert or 478 00:19:53,830 --> 00:19:51,200 something like that okay when they're at 479 00:19:55,510 --> 00:19:53,840 a museum you know it's a natural place 480 00:19:57,510 --> 00:19:55,520 at this natural time 481 00:20:00,230 --> 00:19:57,520 if they're at an observatory you know so 482 00:20:02,870 --> 00:20:00,240 there are lots of places that people 483 00:20:04,390 --> 00:20:02,880 visit and when they're there you know if 484 00:20:06,310 --> 00:20:04,400 we can reach them and you're saying like 485 00:20:07,510 --> 00:20:06,320 the maker faire as an example you know 486 00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:07,520 and there are other examples of that 487 00:20:13,029 --> 00:20:10,880 where you know these are environments 488 00:20:15,830 --> 00:20:13,039 where we can reach out to people because 489 00:20:17,830 --> 00:20:15,840 that's what you know they're kind of 490 00:20:18,870 --> 00:20:17,840 uh that's what they're doing at that 491 00:20:20,230 --> 00:20:18,880 time 492 00:20:21,990 --> 00:20:20,240 and then there are other moments like 493 00:20:25,110 --> 00:20:22,000 you know uh 494 00:20:27,669 --> 00:20:25,120 if comet ison flies by you know 495 00:20:30,549 --> 00:20:27,679 that's uh and it is going to fly by and 496 00:20:32,549 --> 00:20:30,559 how interesting it will be okay as it 497 00:20:34,710 --> 00:20:32,559 flies by both as it approaches the sun 498 00:20:36,870 --> 00:20:34,720 and it approaches the earth okay 499 00:20:38,070 --> 00:20:36,880 there'll be people uh increased 500 00:20:41,110 --> 00:20:38,080 awareness 501 00:20:44,310 --> 00:20:41,120 of these cosmic objects out there and 502 00:20:46,789 --> 00:20:44,320 that's a time when again we can you know 503 00:20:49,590 --> 00:20:46,799 take that and leverage that 504 00:20:51,270 --> 00:20:49,600 and the same thing with like flybys of 505 00:20:53,430 --> 00:20:51,280 spacecraft as they fly by the earth you 506 00:20:55,430 --> 00:20:53,440 know and make the analogy of you know 507 00:20:57,510 --> 00:20:55,440 that these are similar uh other objects 508 00:20:59,110 --> 00:20:57,520 so so again i think we need to look for 509 00:21:00,630 --> 00:20:59,120 those kinds of opportunities because 510 00:21:10,710 --> 00:21:00,640 really there is a lot to compete with 511 00:21:16,149 --> 00:21:13,110 i like what eric had said 512 00:21:20,230 --> 00:21:16,159 however those are like vitamin pills 513 00:21:22,630 --> 00:21:20,240 and folks need to do their homework 514 00:21:24,789 --> 00:21:22,640 i even see it within nasa nasa needs to 515 00:21:26,630 --> 00:21:24,799 do its homework complete the dam survey 516 00:21:29,190 --> 00:21:26,640 first 517 00:21:31,270 --> 00:21:29,200 and find low delta v targets to to bring 518 00:21:32,789 --> 00:21:31,280 things back uh but uh there are those 519 00:21:34,710 --> 00:21:32,799 educational moments 520 00:21:36,549 --> 00:21:34,720 uh like vitamin pills planetarium 521 00:21:39,830 --> 00:21:36,559 productions uh interesting things on 522 00:21:40,870 --> 00:21:39,840 discovery or whatever uh but uh 523 00:21:43,190 --> 00:21:40,880 uh 524 00:21:44,710 --> 00:21:43,200 do your damn homework 525 00:21:46,549 --> 00:21:44,720 a question for you 526 00:21:48,870 --> 00:21:46,559 do you remember 527 00:21:51,669 --> 00:21:48,880 what what it was that sparked your 528 00:21:53,350 --> 00:21:51,679 interest to get down this path i mean 529 00:21:56,390 --> 00:21:53,360 because that to me is an incredibly 530 00:21:57,750 --> 00:21:56,400 teachable moment like what it is that 531 00:22:00,549 --> 00:21:57,760 you found 532 00:22:01,669 --> 00:22:00,559 your passion in doing this work uh sure 533 00:22:03,590 --> 00:22:01,679 uh 534 00:22:04,950 --> 00:22:03,600 my dad was a a 535 00:22:06,710 --> 00:22:04,960 mature student at michigan state 536 00:22:10,149 --> 00:22:06,720 university he took me to abraham's 537 00:22:11,990 --> 00:22:10,159 planetarium and i was curious i was five 538 00:22:15,669 --> 00:22:12,000 five years old it was footsteps on the 539 00:22:17,909 --> 00:22:15,679 moon and uh to a child's eyes uh you're 540 00:22:20,630 --> 00:22:17,919 overwhelmed with visual density in the 541 00:22:23,750 --> 00:22:20,640 planetarium even if it was an old spitz 542 00:22:25,350 --> 00:22:23,760 stp uh projector uh i was convinced 543 00:22:27,190 --> 00:22:25,360 we're flying through space and unlike 544 00:22:29,590 --> 00:22:27,200 the apollo guys it only took us 20 545 00:22:30,870 --> 00:22:29,600 minutes to uh get to the moon and and 546 00:22:34,950 --> 00:22:30,880 back 547 00:22:37,350 --> 00:22:34,960 time frame is not like it is today with 548 00:22:38,630 --> 00:22:37,360 full dome and whatnot 549 00:22:40,470 --> 00:22:38,640 and that was the initial spark there 550 00:22:42,470 --> 00:22:40,480 were a couple other things along the way 551 00:22:44,070 --> 00:22:42,480 uh 552 00:22:46,070 --> 00:22:44,080 we moved out to missouri we lived by an 553 00:22:47,510 --> 00:22:46,080 airport i don't know how to fly so i 554 00:22:49,990 --> 00:22:47,520 learned to fly i went to the air force 555 00:22:52,630 --> 00:22:50,000 academy and so on and 556 00:22:56,470 --> 00:22:52,640 so they're moments like that but you got 557 00:22:58,549 --> 00:22:56,480 to do your homework uh so uh uh and 558 00:23:01,430 --> 00:22:58,559 the moments are less frequent now uh 559 00:23:03,190 --> 00:23:01,440 however there are adult moments uh when 560 00:23:06,950 --> 00:23:03,200 uh you're looking at an image from 561 00:23:08,390 --> 00:23:06,960 hubble uh that no one else has seen yet 562 00:23:11,430 --> 00:23:08,400 there's something new 563 00:23:13,750 --> 00:23:11,440 or you're seeing uh a new spectral line 564 00:23:16,230 --> 00:23:13,760 in a near-earth asteroid from data that 565 00:23:17,270 --> 00:23:16,240 you're collecting in real time from irtf 566 00:23:19,190 --> 00:23:17,280 uh 567 00:23:21,750 --> 00:23:19,200 those things are kind of cool and how 568 00:23:23,750 --> 00:23:21,760 you sit on it and and whatnot but what 569 00:23:25,669 --> 00:23:23,760 was that initial spark all of us had it 570 00:23:28,470 --> 00:23:25,679 but then 571 00:23:30,070 --> 00:23:28,480 how do you continue to engage i think uh 572 00:23:31,909 --> 00:23:30,080 for the citizen science stuff i kind of 573 00:23:34,310 --> 00:23:31,919 cringe every time i hear that 574 00:23:36,950 --> 00:23:34,320 i believe in a more jeffersonian way an 575 00:23:38,630 --> 00:23:36,960 informed republic or reform democratic 576 00:23:40,390 --> 00:23:38,640 republic uh 577 00:23:42,070 --> 00:23:40,400 and i think that is the greatest benefit 578 00:23:43,669 --> 00:23:42,080 uh uh 579 00:23:45,750 --> 00:23:43,679 through all these uh all these things 580 00:23:48,149 --> 00:23:45,760 and uh the visualizations that dave had 581 00:23:50,710 --> 00:23:48,159 shown uh earlier on but uh that was my 582 00:23:54,710 --> 00:23:50,720 spark was a planetarium production 583 00:23:54,720 --> 00:24:04,549 that spark a thought 584 00:24:09,269 --> 00:24:06,710 as far as engaging people would it be 585 00:24:12,070 --> 00:24:09,279 possible to create something sort of 586 00:24:15,510 --> 00:24:12,080 like an intellectual stock market where 587 00:24:18,710 --> 00:24:15,520 if somebody that does this kind of thing 588 00:24:20,710 --> 00:24:18,720 if what they do will help 589 00:24:21,990 --> 00:24:20,720 further another company's effort to the 590 00:24:23,350 --> 00:24:22,000 point where it would save them a 591 00:24:24,710 --> 00:24:23,360 development cost 592 00:24:26,710 --> 00:24:24,720 that they could 593 00:24:28,310 --> 00:24:26,720 earn a share of stock 594 00:24:29,669 --> 00:24:28,320 something so that the people who say 595 00:24:31,350 --> 00:24:29,679 what does it do for me now would 596 00:24:33,110 --> 00:24:31,360 actually have something that tangible 597 00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:33,120 that they can see that it will do for 598 00:24:38,310 --> 00:24:33,840 them 599 00:24:41,110 --> 00:24:38,320 and want to get educated and want to get 600 00:24:43,110 --> 00:24:41,120 you know keep up with the 601 00:24:44,950 --> 00:24:43,120 keep up with the tutorials and things 602 00:24:47,750 --> 00:24:44,960 because the bet would give them a better 603 00:24:50,390 --> 00:24:47,760 chance of actually earning something 604 00:24:52,230 --> 00:24:50,400 it's a really interesting idea and i i 605 00:24:54,149 --> 00:24:52,240 we're not going to have time now to dig 606 00:24:56,070 --> 00:24:54,159 into that but i'd love to see if we can 607 00:24:58,230 --> 00:24:56,080 get that going on the wiki because part 608 00:25:00,630 --> 00:24:58,240 again of the wiki is to keep this 609 00:25:02,789 --> 00:25:00,640 conversation going and so uh if you 610 00:25:04,950 --> 00:25:02,799 could throw that idea down on the wiki 611 00:25:07,590 --> 00:25:04,960 and let's see if we can get some some 612 00:25:08,549 --> 00:25:07,600 some conversation sparked around that 613 00:25:10,149 --> 00:25:08,559 thanks 614 00:25:12,870 --> 00:25:10,159 uh you know i was trying to think of 615 00:25:13,990 --> 00:25:12,880 what my first uh in inciting moment 616 00:25:16,070 --> 00:25:14,000 might be and you know there's things 617 00:25:17,430 --> 00:25:16,080 like first telescope and stuff and maybe 618 00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:17,440 getting up on saturday mornings in the 619 00:25:22,950 --> 00:25:20,320 early 60s and watching fireball xl5 on 620 00:25:25,269 --> 00:25:22,960 you know tv but the truth is during that 621 00:25:26,870 --> 00:25:25,279 time it was easier you know the space 622 00:25:28,630 --> 00:25:26,880 mission was really starting out there 623 00:25:30,870 --> 00:25:28,640 was a lot of drama and excitement in our 624 00:25:33,669 --> 00:25:30,880 society as a whole about nass and what 625 00:25:36,149 --> 00:25:33,679 was going on and what interested me in 626 00:25:38,230 --> 00:25:36,159 the asteroid initiative is 627 00:25:39,750 --> 00:25:38,240 maybe this is a chance to try to recover 628 00:25:42,070 --> 00:25:39,760 some of that same 629 00:25:44,310 --> 00:25:42,080 level of drama in our society with 630 00:25:46,549 --> 00:25:44,320 something that you know between manned 631 00:25:48,710 --> 00:25:46,559 missions and the the risk and the the 632 00:25:51,990 --> 00:25:48,720 the mining and all that other stuff but 633 00:25:57,269 --> 00:25:52,000 somebody needs to craft this into a big 634 00:26:01,430 --> 00:25:59,029 yeah i just wanted to follow up on on 635 00:26:04,070 --> 00:26:01,440 actually what all of you are saying um i 636 00:26:06,470 --> 00:26:04,080 i love the idea of of you know creating 637 00:26:08,870 --> 00:26:06,480 incentives along the way um especially 638 00:26:10,230 --> 00:26:08,880 so that we're talking about barriers and 639 00:26:12,070 --> 00:26:10,240 things 640 00:26:15,110 --> 00:26:12,080 there's a lot of young people out there 641 00:26:18,470 --> 00:26:15,120 that don't have the role models or 642 00:26:20,470 --> 00:26:18,480 the you know perceived incentives to 643 00:26:22,710 --> 00:26:20,480 keep on going and knowing that they want 644 00:26:24,789 --> 00:26:22,720 to reach you know this goal 645 00:26:28,149 --> 00:26:24,799 and so i think that's really great you 646 00:26:31,269 --> 00:26:28,159 know and and if we could um help to 647 00:26:33,830 --> 00:26:31,279 uh create those those experiences along 648 00:26:35,510 --> 00:26:33,840 the way um that will help them to to get 649 00:26:37,430 --> 00:26:35,520 them to want to do their homework you 650 00:26:39,990 --> 00:26:37,440 know then because i agree you know that 651 00:26:41,590 --> 00:26:40,000 that it's necessary and it's extremely 652 00:26:44,310 --> 00:26:41,600 important but i think one of the 653 00:26:46,630 --> 00:26:44,320 barriers is simply just access and one 654 00:26:47,909 --> 00:26:46,640 of the challenges is to i mean to reach 655 00:26:49,510 --> 00:26:47,919 high to do 656 00:26:51,430 --> 00:26:49,520 all of the things that we want to do on 657 00:26:53,190 --> 00:26:51,440 on the cutting edge of 658 00:26:54,710 --> 00:26:53,200 creating new 659 00:26:56,549 --> 00:26:54,720 interactions with technologies and 660 00:26:58,070 --> 00:26:56,559 things but still 661 00:27:00,230 --> 00:26:58,080 be aware that 662 00:27:02,470 --> 00:27:00,240 access to those things sometimes may be 663 00:27:04,470 --> 00:27:02,480 difficult and 664 00:27:07,029 --> 00:27:04,480 you know trying to 665 00:27:13,510 --> 00:27:07,039 create it in a way so that it may not be 666 00:27:19,510 --> 00:27:16,310 so a question online 667 00:27:21,190 --> 00:27:19,520 what's the best way for citizens 668 00:27:23,669 --> 00:27:21,200 people who aren't necessarily tied into 669 00:27:26,710 --> 00:27:23,679 the to the more formal nasa community to 670 00:27:28,950 --> 00:27:26,720 uh to to to stay engaged and find 671 00:27:31,350 --> 00:27:28,960 opportunities to participate there's a 672 00:27:34,310 --> 00:27:31,360 high school class in northbridge 673 00:27:36,310 --> 00:27:34,320 uh massachusetts and and the person's 674 00:27:38,070 --> 00:27:36,320 interested in how they might stay 675 00:27:40,310 --> 00:27:38,080 plugged in and find better ways to 676 00:27:42,630 --> 00:27:40,320 engage in the whole asteroid initiative 677 00:27:47,350 --> 00:27:45,029 for the overall initiative 678 00:27:49,909 --> 00:27:47,360 we're going to have a plenary session 679 00:27:51,909 --> 00:27:49,919 following this session 680 00:27:54,710 --> 00:27:51,919 thank you 681 00:27:55,430 --> 00:27:54,720 and that will deliver some findings that 682 00:27:57,909 --> 00:27:55,440 will 683 00:27:59,110 --> 00:27:57,919 enable us to have the going forward 684 00:28:01,510 --> 00:27:59,120 actions 685 00:28:03,669 --> 00:28:01,520 i can speak specifically specifically to 686 00:28:06,389 --> 00:28:03,679 the grand challenge where we have this 687 00:28:08,230 --> 00:28:06,399 wiki that we've created and it's not an 688 00:28:11,110 --> 00:28:08,240 uh nasa 689 00:28:13,909 --> 00:28:11,120 owned wiki i don't want to say that it's 690 00:28:16,230 --> 00:28:13,919 ours it's the communities and so we've 691 00:28:19,110 --> 00:28:16,240 thrown it up there we have the means to 692 00:28:20,950 --> 00:28:19,120 have it available but the purpose is to 693 00:28:23,269 --> 00:28:20,960 get comments and feedback and so that's 694 00:28:25,350 --> 00:28:23,279 the most immediate way 695 00:28:27,269 --> 00:28:25,360 we anticipate 696 00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:27,279 some virtual meetups that we're going to 697 00:28:30,549 --> 00:28:29,120 start at the beginning of next year 698 00:28:31,669 --> 00:28:30,559 where people can come together and 699 00:28:34,389 --> 00:28:31,679 hopefully 700 00:28:36,149 --> 00:28:34,399 spark in-person conversations where 701 00:28:38,310 --> 00:28:36,159 there'll be satellite groups that will 702 00:28:40,630 --> 00:28:38,320 be gathering around the topic of 703 00:28:43,110 --> 00:28:40,640 asteroids and the grand challenge we 704 00:28:45,350 --> 00:28:43,120 also anticipate getting a seminar series 705 00:28:47,110 --> 00:28:45,360 started where we can start building some 706 00:28:50,230 --> 00:28:47,120 education around the basics of what 707 00:28:55,590 --> 00:28:53,830 we'll have a presence at the maker faire 708 00:28:58,149 --> 00:28:55,600 in san mateo 709 00:29:00,870 --> 00:28:58,159 and really we need to hear ideas back 710 00:29:03,190 --> 00:29:00,880 from the community because again 711 00:29:03,990 --> 00:29:03,200 this isn't a one-way transmission this 712 00:29:09,430 --> 00:29:04,000 is 713 00:29:11,350 --> 00:29:09,440 intended to spark action 714 00:29:13,510 --> 00:29:11,360 and it's not something that we can do 715 00:29:15,669 --> 00:29:13,520 alone and so 716 00:29:17,990 --> 00:29:15,679 i would put the question back to this 717 00:29:20,230 --> 00:29:18,000 high school class and say 718 00:29:22,549 --> 00:29:20,240 what would you like to do and how do you 719 00:29:24,630 --> 00:29:22,559 think that you can contribute and 720 00:29:26,549 --> 00:29:24,640 probably the best way to to provide that 721 00:29:28,870 --> 00:29:26,559 feedback is through the wiki and then we 722 00:29:31,669 --> 00:29:28,880 can get a conversation going 723 00:29:33,990 --> 00:29:32,870 exactly 724 00:29:36,310 --> 00:29:34,000 thank you jen 725 00:29:37,909 --> 00:29:36,320 we'll have a website 726 00:29:40,549 --> 00:29:37,919 getting produced that will hopefully 727 00:29:42,549 --> 00:29:40,559 also be a community driven activity 728 00:29:43,909 --> 00:29:42,559 where it's not 729 00:29:45,990 --> 00:29:43,919 nasa owned 730 00:29:48,470 --> 00:29:46,000 and so this is this is the beginning of 731 00:29:50,149 --> 00:29:48,480 an ongoing dialogue and 732 00:29:52,149 --> 00:29:50,159 so i'll look 733 00:29:55,990 --> 00:29:52,159 for that high school's response on the 734 00:29:57,269 --> 00:29:56,000 wiki sometime within the next week 735 00:30:00,149 --> 00:29:57,279 i think we had another question yeah 736 00:30:03,269 --> 00:30:00,950 you know 737 00:30:06,230 --> 00:30:03,279 flashing back to a 738 00:30:09,590 --> 00:30:06,240 retro future 1950s 739 00:30:11,990 --> 00:30:09,600 early 60s moment where 740 00:30:13,990 --> 00:30:12,000 as a little kid and i'm talking maybe 741 00:30:15,269 --> 00:30:14,000 between four and 12 years old all right 742 00:30:17,110 --> 00:30:15,279 before 743 00:30:19,029 --> 00:30:17,120 the uh you know culture has crushed the 744 00:30:20,950 --> 00:30:19,039 imagination out of you and you know put 745 00:30:23,110 --> 00:30:20,960 you into the system too far there's a 746 00:30:24,870 --> 00:30:23,120 turning point in there of of doing 747 00:30:26,230 --> 00:30:24,880 something that's that's the kid running 748 00:30:28,310 --> 00:30:26,240 around in the batman cave going i'm 749 00:30:30,149 --> 00:30:28,320 gonna i'm gonna protect you mommy 750 00:30:31,830 --> 00:30:30,159 and and there's a moment in there where 751 00:30:34,470 --> 00:30:31,840 you could get kids into something like 752 00:30:35,909 --> 00:30:34,480 you know i'm a planetary defender 753 00:30:39,029 --> 00:30:35,919 you know i i am a member of the 754 00:30:40,789 --> 00:30:39,039 planetary defenders and it becomes 755 00:30:43,110 --> 00:30:40,799 like the cub scouts 756 00:30:44,789 --> 00:30:43,120 it's not a club it is 757 00:30:47,190 --> 00:30:44,799 it is you are defending the planet and 758 00:30:50,149 --> 00:30:47,200 then you move from there into planetary 759 00:30:51,669 --> 00:30:50,159 uh you know you become an explorer and 760 00:30:53,350 --> 00:30:51,679 that moves you up into the high school 761 00:30:55,430 --> 00:30:53,360 realm and things like that but get them 762 00:30:56,630 --> 00:30:55,440 very very young when the imagination is 763 00:30:58,470 --> 00:30:56,640 still there 764 00:31:00,470 --> 00:30:58,480 that and and you know they're going to 765 00:31:01,990 --> 00:31:00,480 get a tweet that pops up that says 766 00:31:03,190 --> 00:31:02,000 asteroids so-and-so is coming by and 767 00:31:04,870 --> 00:31:03,200 they're like mommy and they run out in 768 00:31:06,389 --> 00:31:04,880 the yard they're like look there it is 769 00:31:08,789 --> 00:31:06,399 and you know i'm going to be here in my 770 00:31:10,870 --> 00:31:08,799 life to defend the planet because there 771 00:31:12,230 --> 00:31:10,880 is something more 772 00:31:15,669 --> 00:31:12,240 immediate 773 00:31:18,310 --> 00:31:15,679 to this idea of i can do something great 774 00:31:20,230 --> 00:31:18,320 and and i can protect the planet kind of 775 00:31:21,750 --> 00:31:20,240 thing as opposed to i'm just a member of 776 00:31:23,909 --> 00:31:21,760 a club and i'm hanging out 777 00:31:26,070 --> 00:31:23,919 you know and and and little kids that's 778 00:31:27,029 --> 00:31:26,080 that's the turning point you know so i 779 00:31:27,830 --> 00:31:27,039 just want to encourage something like 780 00:31:30,389 --> 00:31:27,840 that 781 00:31:33,350 --> 00:31:30,399 uh we are approaching the end of our 782 00:31:35,269 --> 00:31:33,360 time and that touches on a topic that i 783 00:31:37,029 --> 00:31:35,279 was hoping to dig into but we we just 784 00:31:39,750 --> 00:31:37,039 didn't have the time to do so and that 785 00:31:41,830 --> 00:31:39,760 was the idea of badging 786 00:31:43,509 --> 00:31:41,840 it is an 787 00:31:44,710 --> 00:31:43,519 area that we want to 788 00:31:46,789 --> 00:31:44,720 explore 789 00:31:48,549 --> 00:31:46,799 more 790 00:31:51,269 --> 00:31:48,559 and 791 00:31:53,350 --> 00:31:51,279 so i'd like to throw that out to 792 00:31:55,350 --> 00:31:53,360 to the community for the wiki as well is 793 00:31:56,950 --> 00:31:55,360 let's let's start talking more about 794 00:31:58,549 --> 00:31:56,960 badging because i think that's the kind 795 00:32:01,430 --> 00:31:58,559 of level of engagement that you're 796 00:32:05,430 --> 00:32:01,440 talking about of um people feeling 797 00:32:11,110 --> 00:32:07,190 one more

kids engaged in space many 801 00:32:18,149 --> 00:32:16,559 years ago and it was you know do we get 802 00:32:20,630 --> 00:32:18,159 them involved in dinosaurs or do we 803 00:32:22,950 --> 00:32:20,640 create a thing called young astronauts 804 00:32:24,310 --> 00:32:22,960 and that was at the federal level um and 805 00:32:25,909 --> 00:32:24,320 they went with young astronauts and it 806 00:32:26,830 --> 00:32:25,919 ran for a while 807 00:32:28,549 --> 00:32:26,840 thank 808 00:32:31,110 --> 00:32:28,559 you 809 00:32:32,789 --> 00:32:31,120 so with that i'm sad to say our time
