to it on this day in 36 00:02:15,830 --> 00:02:12,900 history 1966 Venera 3 a Soviet space 37 00:02:18,710 --> 00:02:15,840 probe launched from a Kazakhstan crashes 38 00:02:20,630 --> 00:02:18,720 into the planet Venus although Venera 3 39 00:02:23,330 --> 00:02:20,640 failed in its mission to measure the 40 00:02:26,630 --> 00:02:23,340 Venetian atmosphere it was the first 41 00:02:29,270 --> 00:02:26,640 spacecraft to reach the surface of 42 00:02:34,309 --> 00:02:29,280 another planet even though it crash 43 00:02:36,589 --> 00:02:34,319 landed that's right on this day in 1966 44 00:02:40,089 --> 00:02:36,599 here's your fader fact today 45 00:02:44,509 --> 00:02:40,099 are you ready this is vetted 46 00:02:45,589 --> 00:02:44,519 humans are the only animals on planet 47 00:02:48,350 --> 00:02:45,599 Earth 48 00:02:51,589 --> 00:02:48,360 with chins 49 00:02:55,610 --> 00:02:51,599 that's right chimpanzees gorillas Homo 50 00:02:57,610 --> 00:02:55,620 erectus Neanderthal all of our closest 51 00:02:59,990 --> 00:02:57,620 genetic cousins 52 00:03:03,830 --> 00:03:00,000 lack chins 53 00:03:06,170 --> 00:03:03,840 only modern humans have them 54 00:03:08,449 --> 00:03:06,180 and we don't know why 55 00:03:10,790 --> 00:03:08,459 some say it's because it makes men more 56 00:03:14,930 --> 00:03:10,800 handsome 57 00:03:19,990 --> 00:03:14,940 that's a theory breaking news 58 00:03:21,610 --> 00:03:20,000 the U.S Air Force has grounded 207 KC RC 59 00:03:26,330 --> 00:03:21,620 and 60 00:03:29,410 --> 00:03:26,340 wc-135 jets because their tails might 61 00:03:33,290 --> 00:03:29,420 fall off seriously 62 00:03:37,729 --> 00:03:33,300 specifically the five inch pins that 63 00:03:39,729 --> 00:03:37,739 hold the tail on are defective the 64 00:03:42,890 --> 00:03:39,739 offending items are apparently 65 00:03:46,009 --> 00:03:42,900 non-conforming vertical pins two of 66 00:03:48,410 --> 00:03:46,019 these five inch pins are used to Bear 90 67 00:03:52,430 --> 00:03:48,420 percent of the load fixing the vertical 68 00:03:55,789 --> 00:03:52,440 stabilizer the tail fin on the c-135 69 00:03:58,009 --> 00:03:55,799 family of aircraft the failure of just 70 00:04:00,710 --> 00:03:58,019 one pin would compromise its load 71 00:04:05,449 --> 00:04:00,720 bearing capacity causing the entire 72 00:04:07,670 --> 00:04:05,459 vertical stabilizer to quote depart the 73 00:04:11,270 --> 00:04:07,680 aircraft and quote all of that according 74 00:04:14,350 --> 00:04:11,280 to an Air Force memo the memo states 75 00:04:18,110 --> 00:04:14,360 that metallurgical analysis of two 76 00:04:21,650 --> 00:04:18,120 non-conformal pins supplied by Blue Dog 77 00:04:24,730 --> 00:04:21,660 Industries found flaws including quote 78 00:04:28,370 --> 00:04:24,740 incorrect material undersized Dimensions 79 00:04:31,310 --> 00:04:28,380 insufficient plating and lack of shot 80 00:04:33,110 --> 00:04:31,320 peening end quote 81 00:04:35,409 --> 00:04:33,120 their tails 82 00:04:38,110 --> 00:04:35,419 will fall off 83 00:04:41,090 --> 00:04:38,120 residents of Lincoln County Tennessee 84 00:04:44,270 --> 00:04:41,100 are becoming more and more upset with 85 00:04:46,790 --> 00:04:44,280 the Jack Daniels distillery due to 86 00:04:48,610 --> 00:04:46,800 ethanol emissions in the air which they 87 00:04:50,890 --> 00:04:48,620 believe to be causing 88 00:04:54,230 --> 00:04:50,900 whiskey fungus 89 00:04:57,290 --> 00:04:54,240 or black fungus 90 00:04:59,629 --> 00:04:57,300 this all began back in 2018 when Jack 91 00:05:02,330 --> 00:04:59,639 Daniels started building six of new 92 00:05:04,909 --> 00:05:02,340 Barrel houses in the area with plans to 93 00:05:08,629 --> 00:05:04,919 build another 14. 94 00:05:11,570 --> 00:05:08,639 the fungus and ethanol in the air come 95 00:05:14,450 --> 00:05:11,580 from what's known as the Angels share 96 00:05:16,909 --> 00:05:14,460 which is when whiskey evaporates into 97 00:05:20,390 --> 00:05:16,919 the air and can linger in the air for up 98 00:05:22,670 --> 00:05:20,400 to a mile away residents began noticing 99 00:05:26,090 --> 00:05:22,680 the mold around town even talking about 100 00:05:28,430 --> 00:05:26,100 how the county had stopped cleaning road 101 00:05:31,249 --> 00:05:28,440 signs and instead began replacing them 102 00:05:34,670 --> 00:05:31,259 when they became so overcome with the 103 00:05:37,129 --> 00:05:34,680 fungus that they couldn't be read in 104 00:05:38,689 --> 00:05:37,139 December a public hearing was held on 105 00:05:40,790 --> 00:05:38,699 the issue where residents of the Town 106 00:05:43,850 --> 00:05:40,800 fought for a filtration system to be 107 00:05:46,670 --> 00:05:43,860 implemented at The Distillery Patrick 108 00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:46,680 long a homeowner who lives near the six 109 00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:49,440 barrel houses told the independent that 110 00:05:54,890 --> 00:05:51,600 the issue had caused him to spend about 111 00:05:58,070 --> 00:05:54,900 ten thousand dollars annually on power 112 00:06:01,270 --> 00:05:58,080 washing his home to remove the fungus 113 00:06:04,850 --> 00:06:01,280 now a spokesman for Jack Daniels said 114 00:06:06,890 --> 00:06:04,860 that and I quote while we can't come 115 00:06:09,110 --> 00:06:06,900 comment on the specifics of pending 116 00:06:11,330 --> 00:06:09,120 litigation I can tell you that Jack 117 00:06:13,550 --> 00:06:11,340 Daniels complies with all local state 118 00:06:16,070 --> 00:06:13,560 and federal regulations regarding the 119 00:06:19,070 --> 00:06:16,080 design construction and permitting of 120 00:06:20,629 --> 00:06:19,080 our Barrel houses we are dedicated to 121 00:06:23,210 --> 00:06:20,639 protecting the environment and the 122 00:06:27,110 --> 00:06:23,220 safety and health of our employees and 123 00:06:30,249 --> 00:06:27,120 neighbors end quote black 124 00:06:34,070 --> 00:06:32,689 seven sheep 125 00:06:37,670 --> 00:06:34,080 seven 126 00:06:41,029 --> 00:06:37,680 some with tags on their ears and a red 127 00:06:43,730 --> 00:06:41,039 spot on their wool coats marks used to 128 00:06:44,770 --> 00:06:43,740 signify when animals are going to 129 00:06:49,909 --> 00:06:44,780 slaughter 130 00:06:51,650 --> 00:06:49,919 Patterson New Jersey all of this 131 00:06:54,350 --> 00:06:51,660 happening on Monday 132 00:06:57,050 --> 00:06:54,360 Patterson Animal Control decided that 133 00:06:58,790 --> 00:06:57,060 the brave sheep would not return to the 134 00:07:01,430 --> 00:06:58,800 slaughterhouse and instead contacted 135 00:07:03,890 --> 00:07:01,440 Skylands animal sanctuary and rescue in 136 00:07:07,189 --> 00:07:03,900 Sussex County for assistance the 137 00:07:09,950 --> 00:07:07,199 facility agreed they said they'll take 138 00:07:13,730 --> 00:07:09,960 the fluffy animals in and care for them 139 00:07:18,950 --> 00:07:13,740 for the rest of their lives in a barn of 140 00:07:20,529 --> 00:07:18,960 their own on a 600 acre Sanctuary life 141 00:07:23,450 --> 00:07:20,539 is good 142 00:07:26,150 --> 00:07:23,460 NASA has announced that it has picked a 143 00:07:29,270 --> 00:07:26,160 long time solar scientists who heads its 144 00:07:31,730 --> 00:07:29,280 Helio glyphics Division heliophysics 145 00:07:34,430 --> 00:07:31,740 division to become the U.S space 146 00:07:37,670 --> 00:07:34,440 agency's science chief 147 00:07:40,370 --> 00:07:37,680 Nicola Fox former top scientist on The 148 00:07:43,070 --> 00:07:40,380 Parker solar probe Mission studying the 149 00:07:45,409 --> 00:07:43,080 sun was named NASA's associate 150 00:07:48,589 --> 00:07:45,419 administrator for the agency's science 151 00:07:50,809 --> 00:07:48,599 Mission directorate a memo to agency 152 00:07:54,770 --> 00:07:50,819 employees from NASA Chief Bill Nelson 153 00:07:58,670 --> 00:07:54,780 announced her appointment and that is 154 00:08:00,890 --> 00:07:58,680 huge news the new science Chief NASA is 155 00:08:04,490 --> 00:08:00,900 still in the news though NASA is 156 00:08:06,710 --> 00:08:04,500 scrambling to fix glitches affecting its 157 00:08:09,710 --> 00:08:06,720 Interstellar boundary Explorer otherwise 158 00:08:13,930 --> 00:08:09,720 known as the Ibex and surface water 159 00:08:17,809 --> 00:08:13,940 ocean topography the SWAT SWOT missions 160 00:08:20,689 --> 00:08:17,819 launched in 2008 the Ibex spacecraft 161 00:08:23,570 --> 00:08:20,699 orbits the earth looking onward to 162 00:08:26,390 --> 00:08:23,580 detect energetic neutral atoms and study 163 00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:26,400 how solar wind interacts with matter and 164 00:08:31,730 --> 00:08:28,800 radiation at the farthest reaches of the 165 00:08:33,649 --> 00:08:31,740 solar system NASA has reset its flight 166 00:08:36,469 --> 00:08:33,659 computer many times over its 15 year 167 00:08:38,930 --> 00:08:36,479 life but Mission Control has failed to 168 00:08:42,110 --> 00:08:38,940 regain Communications after its latest 169 00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:42,120 attempt the system entered a contingency 170 00:08:47,449 --> 00:08:45,120 mode on February 18th and although the 171 00:08:50,269 --> 00:08:47,459 spacecraft's flight software seems to be 172 00:08:52,009 --> 00:08:50,279 operational additional software commands 173 00:08:55,490 --> 00:08:52,019 sent by Mission Control have been 174 00:08:57,590 --> 00:08:55,500 ignored meanwhile 175 00:09:00,230 --> 00:08:57,600 NASA Engineers are also trying to figure 176 00:09:04,490 --> 00:09:00,240 out what's wrong with their SWOT 177 00:09:06,829 --> 00:09:04,500 satellite SWOT jointly developed with 178 00:09:09,650 --> 00:09:06,839 France the Canadian space agency and the 179 00:09:12,650 --> 00:09:09,660 UK space agency the surface water 180 00:09:15,050 --> 00:09:12,660 mapping spacecraft was launched back in 181 00:09:17,810 --> 00:09:15,060 December of 2022. it's just a few months 182 00:09:19,610 --> 00:09:17,820 ago one of its instruments was knocked 183 00:09:21,710 --> 00:09:19,620 offline before the satellite had 184 00:09:25,310 --> 00:09:21,720 officially begun collecting scientific 185 00:09:28,070 --> 00:09:25,320 data the k-band radar used to measure 186 00:09:29,750 --> 00:09:28,080 water surface Heights was turned on in 187 00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:29,760 mid-January before one of its 188 00:09:35,630 --> 00:09:32,000 high-powered amplifier subsystems 189 00:09:37,550 --> 00:09:35,640 randomly shut down space agencies are 190 00:09:40,070 --> 00:09:37,560 working together to figure out how to 191 00:09:42,170 --> 00:09:40,080 get it back up and running 192 00:09:46,070 --> 00:09:42,180 now I know you've seen the images and 193 00:09:48,170 --> 00:09:46,080 they are incredible but a powerful solar 194 00:09:51,710 --> 00:09:48,180 storm that swept across the Earth on 195 00:09:53,930 --> 00:09:51,720 Monday forced SpaceX to delay a starlink 196 00:09:56,750 --> 00:09:53,940 launch from Florida and temporarily 197 00:10:00,050 --> 00:09:56,760 disrupted operations of several Canadian 198 00:10:03,290 --> 00:10:00,060 Oil Rigs as GPS signals were too 199 00:10:05,269 --> 00:10:03,300 inaccurate SpaceX eventually launched 200 00:10:07,490 --> 00:10:05,279 those satellites the first batch of 21 201 00:10:10,430 --> 00:10:07,500 second generation starlink internet 202 00:10:12,949 --> 00:10:10,440 spacecraft they did that at 6 13 PM 203 00:10:16,009 --> 00:10:12,959 eastern time on Monday after the storm 204 00:10:17,930 --> 00:10:16,019 had passed it was classified by the U.S 205 00:10:21,730 --> 00:10:17,940 National Oceanic and Atmospheric 206 00:10:23,930 --> 00:10:21,740 Administration as a strong G3 storm 207 00:10:26,810 --> 00:10:23,940 liftoff occurred about four and a half 208 00:10:29,509 --> 00:10:26,820 hours later and since we're talking 209 00:10:33,230 -->
