--> 00:01:52,079 graced with stunning displays of the 24 00:01:57,950 --> 00:01:54,420 northern lights tonight blown into view 25 00:02:01,069 --> 00:01:57,960 by solar winds from a giant hole in the 26 00:02:02,929 --> 00:02:01,079 sun according to an update from the 27 00:02:05,569 --> 00:02:02,939 space weather prediction center the 28 00:02:07,449 --> 00:02:05,579 award the Aurora Borealis might be seen 29 00:02:09,830 --> 00:02:07,459 all the way from Oregon to Michigan 30 00:02:13,790 --> 00:02:09,840 lighting up the skies with beautiful 31 00:02:16,729 --> 00:02:13,800 colors going

satellites and 35 00:02:28,430 --> 00:02:24,720 it returned its booster to Earth after 36 00:02:31,729 --> 00:02:28,440 Delay from a surprise solar storm hence 37 00:02:34,250 --> 00:02:31,739 the Aurora Borealis tonight their early 38 00:02:36,710 --> 00:02:34,260 morning launch today got delayed by 90 39 00:02:39,229 --> 00:02:36,720 minutes because of an unexpectedly 40 00:02:41,089 --> 00:02:39,239 powerful geomagnetic storm that space 41 00:02:43,729 --> 00:02:41,099 weather forecasters didn't see coming 42 00:02:47,630 --> 00:02:43,739 the geomagnetic storm was the most 43 00:02:50,570 --> 00:02:47,640 powerful in six years reaching a G4 44 00:02:52,309 --> 00:02:50,580 level on the five grade geomagnetic 45 00:02:54,710 --> 00:02:52,319 storm scale 46 00:02:57,710 --> 00:02:54,720 the severity of the storm was completely 47 00:03:00,229 --> 00:02:57,720 unexpected the United States National 48 00:03:01,910 --> 00:03:00,239 Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration 49

the 52 00:03:14,630 --> 00:03:12,300 launch last year SpaceX lost a batch of 53 00:03:18,649 --> 00:03:14,640 40 Starling Satellites after launching 54 00:03:20,869 --> 00:03:18,659 them into a relatively minor geomagnetic 55 00:03:23,390 --> 00:03:20,879 storm we remembered that when that went 56 00:03:26,509 --> 00:03:23,400 down today's rocket lab mission called 57 00:03:28,250 --> 00:03:26,519 The Beat Goes On sent two Earth 58 00:03:31,729 --> 00:03:28,260 observing satellites owned by 59 00:03:34,970 --> 00:03:31,739 seattle-based company black Sky into low 60 00:03:38,030 --> 00:03:34,980 earth orbit now check this out 61 00:03:40,610 --> 00:03:38,040 and D.B Shanker one of the world's 62 00:03:44,330 --> 00:03:40,620 leading shipping and logistics companies 63 00:03:47,509 --> 00:03:44,340 has revealed plans to operate a zero 64 00:03:51,050 --> 00:03:47,519 emission Coastal container ship in 65 00:03:54,530 --> 00:03:51,060 Norway the fully autonomous and electric 66 00:03:57,530 --> 00:03:54,540 vessel is the first of its kind in the 67 00:03:59,750 --> 00:03:57,540 world so check this out Dede Shanker and 68 00:04:03,530 --> 00:03:59,760 its cooperation Partners the furniture 69 00:04:06,170 --> 00:04:03,540 Giant ecorns and the vessel designer 70 00:04:09,110 --> 00:04:06,180 Naval Dynamics along with connsburg and 71 00:04:11,210 --> 00:04:09,120 masterly have taken the first steps in 72 00:04:13,369 --> 00:04:11,220 the project to replace the traditional 73 00:04:17,050 --> 00:04:13,379 feeder vessels utilized along the 74 00:04:20,569 --> 00:04:17,060 Norwegian Coastline the new autonomous 75 00:04:23,870 --> 00:04:20,579 and electric short sea container feeder 76 00:04:26,810 --> 00:04:23,880 leverages Naval Dynamics NDS Auto barge 77 00:04:29,469 --> 00:04:26,820 250 concept that was developed in 78 00:04:31,510 --> 00:04:29,479 partnership with kansberg and masterly 79 00:04:33,249 --> 00:04:31,520 that's right 80 00:04:37,730 --> 00:04:33,259 crew-less 81 00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:37,740 autonomous container ships have arrived 82 00:04:42,290 --> 00:04:41,280 that's insane to me two tornadoes oh let 83 00:04:44,870 --> 00:04:42,300 me back up 84 00:04:46,610 --> 00:04:44,880 so there's a bridge on the new ship 85 00:04:48,650 --> 00:04:46,620 right you see it you know the bridge 86 00:04:50,870 --> 00:04:48,660 where you go it's the bridge of the ship 87 00:04:53,990 --> 00:04:50,880 you've got a wheel and you've got all 88 00:04:56,210 --> 00:04:54,000 those they're taking all of that off 89 00:04:58,070 --> 00:04:56,220 taking all that they are going to remove 90 00:05:00,790 --> 00:04:58,080 the bridge so if something goes wrong 91 00:05:03,290 --> 00:05:00,800 it's not like they can drop off a human 92 00:05:05,450 --> 00:05:03,300 and go in and grab the wheel that 93 00:05:08,629 --> 00:05:05,460 stuff's going to be gone 94 00:05:11,330 --> 00:05:08,639 it's absolutely amazing all right this 95 00:05:16,129 --> 00:05:11,340 just happened a few days ago two 96 00:05:19,129 --> 00:05:16,139 tornadoes touched down on Tuesday here 97 00:05:22,010 --> 00:05:19,139 in Southern California this is very rare 98 00:05:25,129 --> 00:05:22,020 cell phone video captured at the moment 99 00:05:26,689 --> 00:05:25,139 a teacher was sucked out of her 100 00:05:30,050 --> 00:05:26,699 classroom and knocked to the ground 101 00:05:32,150 --> 00:05:30,060 during the tornado in Montebello the 102 00:05:34,430 --> 00:05:32,160 video shows the teacher standing near a 103 00:05:37,909 --> 00:05:34,440 door at Vale High School while students 104 00:05:40,249 --> 00:05:37,919 tell her that someone ran outside as she 105 00:05:42,529 --> 00:05:40,259 cracks the door strong gust of wind 106 00:05:45,170 --> 00:05:42,539 flings it open pulling the teacher out 107 00:05:47,930 --> 00:05:45,180 of the classroom and knocking her to the 108 00:05:49,969 --> 00:05:47,940 ground you need to see the video a 109 00:05:51,230 --> 00:05:49,979 student told NBC4 that the teacher 110 00:05:53,810 --> 00:05:51,240 opened the door of the second floor 111 00:05:57,409 --> 00:05:53,820 classroom because another student was 112 00:06:00,249 --> 00:05:57,419 outside on the ledge the tornado damaged 113 00:06:04,430 --> 00:06:00,259 17 buildings in the city ripped a ripoff 114 00:06:06,710 --> 00:06:04,440 roof off of a commercial building with 115 00:06:10,790 --> 00:06:06,720 11 of those build things being red 116 00:06:13,390 --> 00:06:10,800 tagged then in Santa Barbara County in 117 00:06:16,909 --> 00:06:13,400 the community of carpenter Carpenteria 118 00:06:20,210 --> 00:06:16,919 the NWS confirmed that a second tornado 119 00:06:21,770 --> 00:06:20,220 damaged a mobile home park also on 120 00:06:24,290 --> 00:06:21,780 Tuesday night 121 00:06:27,050 --> 00:06:24,300 check this out archaeologists in Egypt 122 00:06:30,590 --> 00:06:27,060 have discovered statues of ancient 123 00:06:32,450 --> 00:06:30,600 royalty at a sun temple in heliopolis an 124 00:06:36,350 --> 00:06:32,460 archaeological site that was once a 125 00:06:38,689 --> 00:06:36,360 major city near what is now Cairo the 126 00:06:42,110 --> 00:06:38,699 Pharaohs Sphinx statues include 127 00:06:47,450 --> 00:06:42,120 depictions of Ramses the second Ramses 128 00:06:50,210 --> 00:06:47,460 the fourth hormaheb and samtic II now 129 00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:50,220 check this out all of this is coming 130 00:06:55,010 --> 00:06:52,800 from the Egyptian Ministry Ministry of 131 00:06:57,710 --> 00:06:55,020 Tourism and Antiquities and they 132 00:06:59,809 --> 00:06:57,720 announced this three days ago Sun 133 00:07:02,510 --> 00:06:59,819 temples are found at a number of sites 134 00:07:05,330 --> 00:07:02,520 in Egypt and are dedicated to Rod the 135 00:07:07,790 --> 00:07:05,340 ancient Egyptian sun god I'm watching a 136 00:07:09,350 --> 00:07:07,800 documentary Series right now I think 137 00:07:13,790 --> 00:07:09,360 it's on Nat Geo 138 00:07:16,670 --> 00:07:13,800 about uh these Sun Temple sites that are 139 00:07:18,650 --> 00:07:16,680 being uh discovered all around Egypt and 140 00:07:20,990 --> 00:07:18,660 it's pretty fascinating I'm heading back 141 00:07:22,850 --> 00:07:21,000 to Egypt in October of this year I'm 142 00:07:25,189 --> 00:07:22,860 going to be there for almost three weeks 143 00:07:27,350 --> 00:07:25,199 all right if you want to come and hang 144 00:07:29,990 --> 00:07:27,360 out with us just go over to Forbidden 145 00:07:31,550 --> 00:07:30,000 Knowledge I'll post everything up but if 146 00:07:33,650 --> 00:07:31,560 you want to go to Egypt with me I'm 147 00:07:36,409 --> 00:07:33,660 heading back in a few months all right 148 00:07:41,270 --> 00:07:36,419 University of Manchester scientists now 149 00:07:44,809 --> 00:07:41,280 uh this is the point of the show where I 150 00:07:46,909 --> 00:07:44,819 say I'm going to leave you with this 151 00:07:49,670 --> 00:07:46,919 now I'm Gonna Leave You with this but 152 00:07:52,430 --> 00:07:49,680 listen very carefully 153 00:07:56,689 --> 00:07:52,440 University of Manchester scientists have 154 00:08:00,170 --> 00:07:56,699 created a new material dubbed star Crete 155 00:08:02,809 --> 00:08:00,180 which is made from extraterrestrial dust 156 00:08:04,850 --> 00:08:02,819 potatoes 157 00:08:07,129 --> 00:08:04,860 and a pinch of salt 158 00:08:09,710 --> 00:08:07,139 and it looks like we're going to be 159 00:08:13,189 --> 00:08:09,720 using this stuff on Mars I'm not making 160 00:08:16,909 --> 00:08:13,199 this up the scientist behind the 161 00:08:19,369 --> 00:08:16,919 invention used simulated Martian soil 162 00:08:22,129 --> 00:08:19,379 mixed with potato starch and a pinch of 163 00:08:25,850 --> 00:08:22,139 salt to create the material that is 164 00:08:27,529 --> 00:08:25,860 twice as strong as ordinary concrete and 165 00:08:31,670 --> 00:08:27,539 is perfectly suited for construction 166 00:08:33,290 --> 00:08:31,680 work in extraterrestrial environments 167 00:08:35,630 --> 00:08:33,300 potato chips 168 00:08:37,510 --> 00:08:35,640 now check this out in an article 169 00:08:40,850 --> 00:08:37,520 published in the journal open 170 00:08:43,730 --> 00:08:40,860 engineering the team demonstrated that 171 00:08:46,490 --> 00:08:43,740 ordinary potato starch can act as a 172 00:08:48,670 --> 00:08:46,500 binder when mixed with a simulated Mars 173 00:08:51,610 --> 00:08:48,680 dust to produce a concrete like material 174 00:08:54,829 --> 00:08:51,620 when tested 175 00:08:58,730 --> 00:08:54,839 starcrete had a compressive strength of 176 00:09:02,410 --> 00:08:58,740 72 MPA which is over twice as strong as 177 00:09:05,150 --> 00:09:02,420 the 32 MPA in ordinary concrete 178 00:09:09,290 --> 00:09:05,160 starcrete made for Moon dust was even 179 00:09:13,150 --> 00:09:09,300 stronger at over 91 MPA 180 00:09:18,190 --> 00:09:13,160 and here's the catch the team calculated 181 00:09:22,430 --> 00:09:18,200 that a 50 pound sack of potato chips 182 00:09:24,769 --> 00:09:22,440 that's right potato chips contain enough 183 00:09:27,550 --> 00:09:24,779 starch to produce a half a ton of 184 00:09:31,070 --> 00:09:27,560 starcrete which is equivalent to over 185 00:09:34,070 --> 00:09:31,080 213 bricks worth of material for 186 00:09:38,350 --> 00:09:34,080 comparison a three-bedroom house takes 187 00:09:41,570 --> 00:09:38,360 roughly 7 500 bricks to build 188 00:09:45,410 --> 00:09:41,580 additionally they discovered that common 189 00:09:48,490 --> 00:09:45,420 salt magnesium chloride obtainable from 190 00:09:53,090 --> 00:09:48,500 the Martian surface or from wait for it 191 00:09:56,269 --> 00:09:53,100 the tears of astronauts 192 00:09:59,269 --> 00:09:56,279 all of that significantly improved the 193 00:10:01,970 --> 00:09:59,279 strength of starcrete 194 00:10:04,130 --> 00:10:01,980 that's incredible all right that's all 195 00:10:09,110 --> 00:10:04,140 of your Fade to Black breaking news that 196 00:10:11,269 --> 00:10:09,120 you need for this Friday March 24 2023 197 00:10:14,509 --> 00:10:11,279 faded black breaking news is produced by 198 00:10:16,850 --> 00:10:14,519 Renee Newman I'm Jimmy church I'm just 199 00:10:21,460 --> 00:10:16,860 going to say this
