1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,850 Hi I'm Dr. Tiffany Kataria and I'm here 2 00:00:02,850 --> 00:00:04,680 to talk to the stars of the new movie 3 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,600 "Passengers" while they're used to 4 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:08,220 answering questions, today we thought 5 00:00:08,220 --> 00:00:09,750 we'd flip the script and answer any 6 00:00:09,750 --> 00:00:11,969 questions they had about NASA and space travel. 7 00:00:12,599 --> 00:00:14,099 What's gonna be the next groundbreaking 8 00:00:14,099 --> 00:00:17,910 discovery in space travel and in 9 00:00:17,910 --> 00:00:19,289 propulsion in space. 10 00:00:19,289 --> 00:00:20,820 I think getting, you know, getting 11 00:00:20,820 --> 00:00:22,619 close to the speed of light. I think will 12 00:00:22,619 --> 00:00:24,720 be the next. Getting the technology in 13 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:25,769 order to do that is going to be the 14 00:00:25,769 --> 00:00:27,390 next breakthrough, but I think we're, 15 00:00:27,390 --> 00:00:29,910 depending on who you ask I think we're a 16 00:00:29,910 --> 00:00:32,099 bit of a ways away from that. 17 00:00:32,099 --> 00:00:33,870 What do you feel about the term a wrinkle in time 18 00:00:33,870 --> 00:00:36,899 Haha! I think it's um, you know an 19 00:00:36,899 --> 00:00:38,879 accurate one I think you know 20 00:00:38,879 --> 00:00:41,040 astrophysicist are thinking about you 21 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:42,570 know multiple dimensions and how that 22 00:00:42,570 --> 00:00:44,399 sort of folds into the fabric of time I 23 00:00:44,399 --> 00:00:46,140 think it's definitely a reasonable thing 24 00:00:46,140 --> 00:00:47,820 to think about I don't think about it 25 00:00:47,820 --> 00:00:48,899 but it's really cool. 26 00:00:48,899 --> 00:00:50,700 What are we most likely to become 27 00:00:50,700 --> 00:00:55,079 extinct by? The Sun, becoming too close to 28 00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:57,480 the Sun or a singularity. 29 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,090 I mean I think you know our sun is 30 00:01:00,090 --> 00:01:02,670 evolving I think in either case it's 31 00:01:02,670 --> 00:01:04,530 probably going to be you know billion 32 00:01:04,530 --> 00:01:07,350 years off before either happen. But we 33 00:01:07,350 --> 00:01:10,290 need to start planning now. Absolutely! 34 00:01:10,290 --> 00:01:12,780 Is there any possibility that every star 35 00:01:12,780 --> 00:01:16,619 that we're looking at. Is in fact our Sun, 36 00:01:16,619 --> 00:01:20,009 the Sun around which our, you know the 37 00:01:20,009 --> 00:01:21,780 center of our solar system just 38 00:01:21,780 --> 00:01:24,659 compounded upon itself over and over 39 00:01:24,659 --> 00:01:27,150 again in various states of existence? 40 00:01:27,150 --> 00:01:30,390 That's a really deep question Chris. I 41 00:01:30,390 --> 00:01:31,890 don't, I don't think that that's the case. 42 00:01:31,890 --> 00:01:35,970 Wrong it is! 43 00:01:35,970 --> 00:01:39,000 If at some point in the future like distant, 44 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:40,850 distant future 45 00:01:40,850 --> 00:01:43,490 time travel is invented does that not 46 00:01:43,490 --> 00:01:46,490 mean that people will already be here 47 00:01:46,490 --> 00:01:49,610 who are traveling in time? And will of 48 00:01:49,610 --> 00:01:51,020 presumably were around for the whole 49 00:01:51,020 --> 00:01:53,030 history of mankind because if you can 50 00:01:53,030 --> 00:01:54,590 invent it. Then don't people keep 51 00:01:54,590 --> 00:01:56,630 going back? The fact that we don't see 52 00:01:56,630 --> 00:01:57,649 any of those people 53 00:01:57,649 --> 00:01:59,180 what does that tell us about how time 54 00:01:59,180 --> 00:02:00,920 travel might work? Oh, I don't know maybe 55 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,810 they're really stealthy and 56 00:02:02,810 --> 00:02:04,460 there they're hiding in plain sight 57 00:02:04,460 --> 00:02:06,619 until we sort of figure it out so. Or maybe 58 00:02:06,619 --> 00:02:08,840 part of time travel is about not having 59 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,399 a physical presence having being 60 00:02:10,399 --> 00:02:12,290 traveling through consciousness. 61 00:02:12,290 --> 00:02:14,989 That's true a mental presence you know is also 62 00:02:14,989 --> 00:02:16,970 possible, a possibility? Maybe what we think 63 00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:18,620 of his ideas are actually people from 64 00:02:18,620 --> 00:02:20,239 the future whispering to us in our heads? 65 00:02:20,239 --> 00:02:22,040 I think when it comes to planets 66 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,510 when it comes to space travel I think 67 00:02:23,510 --> 00:02:26,480 nature and nature has shown us that our 68 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:28,550 imagination, that nature's imagination is 69 00:02:28,550 --> 00:02:30,560 much richer than our own so you know 70 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:31,970 crazy things could happen. 71 00:02:31,970 --> 00:02:35,660 It's like Shakespeare; where any idea you have you 72 00:02:35,660 --> 00:02:37,370 go to a Shakespeare play and he's 73 00:02:37,370 --> 00:02:38,510 already had it 74 00:02:38,510 --> 00:02:40,220 nature is like that as well, where 75 00:02:40,220 --> 00:02:42,170 anything we can come up with, any concept, 76 00:02:42,170 --> 00:02:44,000 is already there existing in nature and 77 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,260 it expands as we expand. 78 00:02:48,260 --> 00:02:48,980 So one last question 79 00:02:48,980 --> 00:02:50,930 so what, what exactly about the movie 80 00:02:50,930 --> 00:02:52,340 made why did you want to make a movie 81 00:02:52,340 --> 00:02:53,360 about space? 82 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,510 What drew you to movie? 83 00:02:56,510 --> 00:02:58,340 I, the space aspect isn't what drew me to this 84 00:02:58,340 --> 00:03:00,200 movie, it was more the love story and the 85 00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,709 the tale of these two humans and all the 86 00:03:03,709 --> 00:03:05,959 questions it made me asked myself but I 87 00:03:05,959 --> 00:03:08,750 myself separately from this movie am 88 00:03:08,750 --> 00:03:12,739 infinitely curious about space which 89 00:03:12,739 --> 00:03:15,829 infinitely is a good word for this space.
