NASA announced today that it's Insight

35
00:02:13,790 --> 00:02:11,220
Lander designed to understand the

36
00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:13,800
geologic life story of Mars has

37
00:02:20,330 --> 00:02:16,800
completed its mission on the red planet

38
00:02:23,570 --> 00:02:20,340
the spacecraft relied on solar power and

39
00:02:26,030 --> 00:02:23,580
after too much and too many years on

40
00:02:28,670 --> 00:02:26,040
Mars it's sunlight collecting panels

41
00:02:30,890 --> 00:02:28,680
have built up too much dust to generate

42
00:02:32,869 --> 00:02:30,900
enough power to run the Lander for

43
00:02:36,589 --> 00:02:32,879
months now the Insight team has been

44
00:02:41,210 --> 00:02:36,599
expecting the Lander to fall silent now

45
00:02:43,070 --> 00:02:41,220
the robot has missed two calls home NASA

46
00:02:45,110 --> 00:02:43,080

47
00:02:48,890 --> 00:02:45,120
expect to hear anything more from the

60
00:03:30,170 --> 00:03:26,720
Control commanded them to Halt the work

61
00:03:32,149 --> 00:03:30,180
instead the space station performed an

62
00:03:34,070 --> 00:03:32,159
emergency maneuver to get out of the way

63
00:03:36,670 --> 00:03:34,080

a mysterious black monolith that shows

105
00:06:03,290 --> 00:06:01,139
up in the morning instead of that

106
00:06:05,230 --> 00:06:03,300
same scene

107
00:06:07,909 --> 00:06:05,240
it's pretty incredible actually

108
00:06:10,969 --> 00:06:07,919
you have young girls playing with

109
00:06:15,050 --> 00:06:10,979
old-fashioned baby dolls and then they

110
00:06:16,749 --> 00:06:15,060
start smashing their toys

111
00:06:21,830 --> 00:06:16,759
to bits

112
00:06:23,749 --> 00:06:21,840

00:06:34,550 --> 00:06:30,120
she's the monolith and she's Giant and

116
00:06:40,610 --> 00:06:36,770

00:06:53,330 --> 00:06:48,900
of that trailer it did its job

121
00:06:55,370 --> 00:06:53,340
all right Arizona's state board is

122
00:06:58,370 --> 00:06:55,380
vetting water supply augmentation

123
00:07:01,129 --> 00:06:58,380
proposals for Arizona and yesterday

124
00:07:02,870 --> 00:07:01,139
passed a non-binding resolution in

125
00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:02,880
support of a massive sea water

126
00:07:08,029 --> 00:07:06,720
desalination plant in Mexico's Sea of

127
00:07:11,650 --> 00:07:08,039
Cortez

128
00:07:15,170 --> 00:07:11,660
a partnership led by Israeli IDE

129
00:07:17,029 --> 00:07:15,180
Technologies pitched the multi-billion

130
00:07:19,450 --> 00:07:17,039
dollar plan to the water infrastructure

131
00:07:22,990 --> 00:07:19,460
Finance Authority of Arizona's board

132
00:07:25,909 --> 00:07:23,000
saying it could replace or complement

133
00:07:27,650 --> 00:07:25,919
declining Colorado River water that

134
00:07:30,650 --> 00:07:27,660
flows through the central Arizona

135
00:07:32,990 --> 00:07:30,660
projects Canal the plant would remove

136
00:07:35,629 --> 00:07:33,000
salt from seawater and pump it North

137
00:07:39,350 --> 00:07:35,639
into the canal where it would flow

138
00:07:40,969 --> 00:07:39,360
through Maricopa Pinole and Pima

139
00:07:42,770 --> 00:07:40,979
counties

140
00:07:44,870 --> 00:07:42,780
wow

141
00:07:46,969 --> 00:07:44,880
incredible I'm surprised we don't have

142
00:07:47,930 --> 00:07:46,979
more desalinization plants around the

143
00:07:51,409 --> 00:07:47,940

the United States

158
00:08:38,089 --> 00:08:34,200
