1 00:00:06,150 --> 00:00:01,750 a great answer 2 00:00:08,870 --> 00:00:06,160 hello it's monday july 3rd 2017. you are 3 00:00:11,270 --> 00:00:08,880 listening to inception radio network 4 00:00:14,910 --> 00:00:11,280 voice of the fringe majority this is 5 00:00:18,109 --> 00:00:14,920 carol carl with ufo headline 6 00:00:21,429 --> 00:00:18,119 news here's what's making headlines at 7 00:00:24,790 --> 00:00:21,439 earthsky.org today the earth is farthest 8 00:00:26,710 --> 00:00:24,800 from the sun on july 3rd that's tonight 9 00:00:29,750 --> 00:00:26,720 good old planet earth reaches a 10 00:00:33,110 --> 00:00:29,760 milestone today it's aphelion let's 11 00:00:36,150 --> 00:00:33,120 spell that a-p-h-e-l-i-o-n 12 00:00:40,229 --> 00:00:36,160 or its most distant point from the sun 13 00:00:42,869 --> 00:00:40,239 we reach that point today at 2011 utc 14 00:00:45,190 --> 00:00:42,879 well that's 15 11 central daylight time 15 00:00:47,510 --> 00:00:45,200 for instance in the united states 16 00:00:50,389 --> 00:00:47,520 is it hot outside for you on your part 17 00:00:52,630 --> 00:00:50,399 of earth right now or is it cold out 18 00:00:54,709 --> 00:00:52,640 earth's aphelion comes in the midst of 19 00:00:56,869 --> 00:00:54,719 northern hemisphere summer and southern 20 00:00:58,950 --> 00:00:56,879 hemisphere winter that should tell you 21 00:01:00,630 --> 00:00:58,960 that our distance from the sun doesn't 22 00:01:03,110 --> 00:01:00,640 cause the seasons 23 00:01:05,350 --> 00:01:03,120 if one considers an illustration for 24 00:01:08,469 --> 00:01:05,360 instance that shows the eccentricity the 25 00:01:11,750 --> 00:01:08,479 oblongness of earth's orbit you can get 26 00:01:14,510 --> 00:01:11,760 the idea and you can find that idea in 27 00:01:16,950 --> 00:01:14,520 actual form later at 28 00:01:18,789 --> 00:01:16,960 ufoheadlinenews.com there are charts and 29 00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:18,799 graphs etc 30 00:01:24,550 --> 00:01:21,360 the fact is the earth's orbit is almost 31 00:01:26,630 --> 00:01:24,560 but not quite circular it's that oblong 32 00:01:28,149 --> 00:01:26,640 thing so our distance from the sun 33 00:01:30,950 --> 00:01:28,159 doesn't change much 34 00:01:33,109 --> 00:01:30,960 today we're about 3 million miles 5 35 00:01:35,510 --> 00:01:33,119 million kilometers farther from the sun 36 00:01:37,270 --> 00:01:35,520 than we will be six months from now 37 00:01:40,230 --> 00:01:37,280 that's in contrast to our average 38 00:01:42,710 --> 00:01:40,240 distance from the sun 93 million miles 39 00:01:45,030 --> 00:01:42,720 150 million kilometers 40 00:01:48,310 --> 00:01:45,040 the word aphelion by the way comes from 41 00:01:51,109 --> 00:01:48,320 the greek word apo meaning away off 42 00:01:52,069 --> 00:01:51,119 apart and helios for the greek god of 43 00:01:57,670 --> 00:01:52,079 the sun 44 00:02:00,630 --> 00:01:57,680 if you're curious about earth's exact 45 00:02:04,270 --> 00:02:00,640 distance from the sun at aphelion well 46 00:02:06,109 --> 00:02:04,280 here we go it's staggering 94 47 00:02:08,430 --> 00:02:06,119 505 48 00:02:13,750 --> 00:02:08,440 901 miles or 49 00:02:17,350 --> 00:02:13,760 152 million 92 505 kilometers 50 00:02:19,830 --> 00:02:17,360 last year on july 4th 2016 the earth at 51 00:02:24,990 --> 00:02:19,840 aphelion was just a little bit farther 52 00:02:28,869 --> 00:02:25,000 than that it was calculated to be 94 512 53 00:02:31,229 --> 00:02:28,879 904 miles or 152 54 00:02:34,869 --> 00:02:31,239 103 55 00:02:37,589 --> 00:02:34,879 775 kilometers so we've got it that the 56 00:02:39,990 --> 00:02:37,599 sun doesn't cause the seasons well what 57 00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:40,000 does according to bruce mcclure who 58 00:02:45,110 --> 00:02:42,640 writes this for earthsky.org it's not a 59 00:02:47,430 --> 00:02:45,120 distance thing we're always farther from 60 00:02:49,990 --> 00:02:47,440 the sun in early july during northern 61 00:02:53,589 --> 00:02:50,000 summer and closest in january during 62 00:02:55,430 --> 00:02:53,599 northern winter it's a tilt thing 63 00:02:57,670 --> 00:02:55,440 right now it's summer in the northern 64 00:03:00,630 --> 00:02:57,680 hemisphere because the northern part of 65 00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:00,640 earth is tilted the most toward the sun 66 00:03:04,949 --> 00:03:03,040 and meanwhile it's winter down in the 67 00:03:07,509 --> 00:03:04,959 southern hemisphere because the southern 68 00:03:08,710 --> 00:03:07,519 part of earth is tilted most away from 69 00:03:12,949 --> 00:03:08,720 the sun 70 00:03:14,630 --> 00:03:12,959 does affect the length of the seasons 71 00:03:16,869 --> 00:03:14,640 though and that's because at our 72 00:03:19,910 --> 00:03:16,879 farthest from the sun like now for 73 00:03:21,350 --> 00:03:19,920 instance earth is traveling most slowly 74 00:03:24,070 --> 00:03:21,360 in its orbit 75 00:03:26,390 --> 00:03:24,080 that makes summer the longest season in 76 00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:26,400 the northern hemisphere and winter the 77 00:03:29,509 --> 00:03:28,480 longest season on the southern half of 78 00:03:32,149 --> 00:03:29,519 the globe 79 00:03:34,470 --> 00:03:32,159 conversely winter then is the shortest 80 00:03:36,070 --> 00:03:34,480 season in the northern hemisphere summer 81 00:03:38,710 --> 00:03:36,080 is the shortest in the southern 82 00:03:40,390 --> 00:03:38,720 hemisphere in each instance by nearly 83 00:03:43,270 --> 00:03:40,400 five days 84 00:03:46,710 --> 00:03:43,280 the bottom line planet earth reaches its 85 00:03:49,350 --> 00:03:46,720 most distant point from the sun for 2017 86 00:03:51,509 --> 00:03:49,360 today july 3rd astronomers call this 87 00:03:53,030 --> 00:03:51,519 yearly point in earth's orbit our 88 00:03:55,350 --> 00:03:53,040 aphelion 89 00:03:57,990 --> 00:03:55,360 and wherever you dwell on planet earth 90 00:04:00,550 --> 00:03:58,000 we hope you have a sunny day 91 00:04:03,589 --> 00:04:00,560 things seemed pretty sunny over at space 92 00:04:05,830 --> 00:04:03,599 tech today here's the headline spacex's 93 00:04:08,470 --> 00:04:05,840 first reflown dragon capsule 94 00:04:10,390 --> 00:04:08,480 successfully returns to earth 95 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:10,400 daryl etherington writes this for 96 00:04:14,630 --> 00:04:11,920 techcrunch 97 00:04:17,909 --> 00:04:14,640 spacex has another historic achievement 98 00:04:19,670 --> 00:04:17,919 under its belt being first to re-fly a 99 00:04:22,550 --> 00:04:19,680 commercial spacecraft to the 100 00:04:25,030 --> 00:04:22,560 international space station and back the 101 00:04:27,909 --> 00:04:25,040 dragon capsule that it used on its most 102 00:04:30,150 --> 00:04:27,919 recent iss resupply mission was used 103 00:04:32,469 --> 00:04:30,160 during a previous trip to ferry supplies 104 00:04:35,350 --> 00:04:32,479 and materials for scientific experiments 105 00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:35,360 to that orbital facility this dragon 106 00:04:40,629 --> 00:04:37,680 capsule originally launched in september 107 00:04:43,350 --> 00:04:40,639 of 2014 before being refurbished and 108 00:04:44,870 --> 00:04:43,360 used again on june 3rd 109 00:04:47,270 --> 00:04:44,880 after docking with the international 110 00:04:49,510 --> 00:04:47,280 space station around 36 hours after 111 00:04:51,670 --> 00:04:49,520 launch the spacecraft spent about a 112 00:04:54,390 --> 00:04:51,680 month at the station where astronauts 113 00:04:56,629 --> 00:04:54,400 unloaded its payload gradually 114 00:04:59,350 --> 00:04:56,639 early monday the dragon capsule 115 00:05:02,070 --> 00:04:59,360 decoupled from the iss and made three 116 00:05:04,469 --> 00:05:02,080 departure burns to begin its de-orbit 117 00:05:06,790 --> 00:05:04,479 then a few hours later it completed its 118 00:05:09,189 --> 00:05:06,800 de-orbit burn re-entered earth's 119 00:05:11,590 --> 00:05:09,199 atmosphere and deployed its shoots 120 00:05:14,710 --> 00:05:11,600 splashing down as planned in the pacific 121 00:05:15,749 --> 00:05:14,720 ocean around 8 14 a.m eastern daylight 122 00:05:18,150 --> 00:05:15,759 time 123 00:05:19,990 --> 00:05:18,160 the good splashdown is another big win 124 00:05:22,390 --> 00:05:20,000 for spacex's vision of reusable 125 00:05:24,230 --> 00:05:22,400 spacecraft which will help decrease the 126 00:05:25,590 --> 00:05:24,240 costs of commercial space operations 127 00:05:27,749 --> 00:05:25,600 dramatically 128 00:05:31,749 --> 00:05:27,759 spacex had to cancel a launch attempt on 129 00:05:33,510 --> 00:05:31,759 sunday for its intel 35e mission but it 130 00:05:35,909 --> 00:05:33,520 says they're going to have another 131 00:05:39,830 --> 00:05:35,919 launch window today that will open at 7 132 00:05:41,990 --> 00:05:39,840 37 pm eastern daylight time we'll be 133 00:05:44,629 -->

there's a company called 148 00:06:22,950 --> 00:06:19,600 worldview enterprises they use their 149 00:06:25,510 --> 00:06:22,960 stratospheric balloon it's cargo a 150 00:06:27,909 --> 00:06:25,520 kentucky fried chicken chicken sandwich 151 00:06:31,350 --> 00:06:27,919 called the zinger it touched down 152 00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:31,360 yesterday june 30 about 17 hours after 153 00:06:35,110 --> 00:06:33,600 taking off according to world view 154 00:06:37,350 --> 00:06:35,120 representatives 155 00:06:39,510 --> 00:06:37,360 the flight the first planned long 156 00:06:41,830 --> 00:06:39,520 duration mission of world view's 157 00:06:44,309 --> 00:06:41,840 uncrewed stratelite vehicle was 158 00:06:46,629 --> 00:06:44,319 scheduled to last four days but 159 00:06:48,629 --> 00:06:46,639 controllers ended it early due to a 160 00:06:51,350 --> 00:06:48,639 small leak in one of the company's 161 00:06:53,909 --> 00:06:51,360 innovative new altitude control balloon 162 00:06:57,430 --> 00:06:53,919 systems end quotes that's from jane 163 00:07:00,070 --> 00:06:57,440 poynter she's the ceo for world view 164 00:07:02,230 --> 00:07:00,080 she said quote that said we are 165 00:07:04,309 --> 00:07:02,240 extremely pleased with the results of 166 00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:04,319 the mission many of these systems were 167 00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:06,400 flown for the very first time and tested 168 00:07:11,430 --> 00:07:09,120 together simultaneously pending an 169 00:07:13,510 --> 00:07:11,440 analysis of large amounts of flight data 170 00:07:15,430 --> 00:07:13,520 and key learnings from this mission 171 00:07:17,589 --> 00:07:15,440 worldview plans to launch additional 172 00:07:20,309 --> 00:07:17,599 satellite test missions with increasing 173 00:07:21,430 --> 00:07:20,319 flight duration in the near future end 174 00:07:23,909 --> 00:07:21,440 quotes 175 00:07:28,150 --> 00:07:23,919 the stratolite is designed to operate at 176 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:28,160 altitudes up to 28.5 miles or 45.8 177 00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:31,919 kilometers for weeks or months at a time 178 00:07:36,629 --> 00:07:34,400 the vehicle allows researchers access to 179 00:07:38,950 --> 00:07:36,639 a hard to study region that's higher 180 00:07:40,870 --> 00:07:38,960 than most airplanes can reach but too 181 00:07:43,670 --> 00:07:40,880 low for satellites 182 00:07:46,629 --> 00:07:43,680 the balloon whose name is a portmanteau 183 00:07:49,189 --> 00:07:46,639 of stratosphere and satellite can travel 184 00:07:51,670 --> 00:07:49,199 long distances through the atmosphere or 185 00:07:54,390 --> 00:07:51,680 hover over the same spot on earth for 186 00:07:56,390 --> 00:07:54,400 extended periods customers will be able 187 00:07:58,869 --> 00:07:56,400 to use satellites for a variety of 188 00:08:01,350 --> 00:07:58,879 purposes everything from earth imaging 189 00:08:03,589 --> 00:08:01,360 to providing wi-fi service 190 00:08:05,510 --> 00:08:03,599 kentucky fried chicken signed on to this 191 00:08:07,990 --> 00:08:05,520 stratalight test mission as a way to 192 00:08:10,790 --> 00:08:08,000 market the company's zinger chicken 193 00:08:13,350 --> 00:08:10,800 sandwich kfc representatives have built 194 00:08:15,749 --> 00:08:13,360 this mission as a trip to space but 195 00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:15,759 strata lights don't get that high 196 00:08:21,510 --> 00:08:18,080 the boundary line for space is generally 197 00:08:23,830 --> 00:08:21,520 regarded to lie 62 miles 100 kilometers 198 00:08:25,909 --> 00:08:23,840 above earth's surface 199 00:08:28,469 --> 00:08:25,919 arizona-based worldview is also 200 00:08:31,749 --> 00:08:28,479 developing something it's a balloon with 201 00:08:33,990 --> 00:08:31,759 a crew a system called voyager it's 202 00:08:37,589 --> 00:08:34,000 designed to take paying customers to an 203 00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:37,599 altitude of about 20 miles 32 kilometers 204 00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:39,599 seats aboard a voyager mission which 205 00:08:44,870 --> 00:08:42,240 will give passengers a view of earth's 206 00:08:47,110 --> 00:08:44,880

--> 00:17:33,280 honestly check it out the story ends by 420 00:17:39,350 --> 00:17:36,640 asking so what exactly are these crazy 421 00:17:41,950 --> 00:17:39,360 dancing lights and have you seen them 422 00:17:44,230 --> 00:17:41,960 and there will be links later at 423 00:17:46,470 --> 00:17:44,240 ufoheadlinenews.com gentlelisteners if 424 00:17:47,750 --> 00:17:46,480 you've seen them and you want to comment 425 00:17:49,190 --> 00:17:47,760 about them 426 00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:49,200 crazy 427 00:17:53,909 --> 00:17:52,080 hang on now our trajectory will shift 428 00:17:56,710 --> 00:17:53,919 dramatically we're heading down to 429 00:17:59,430 --> 00:17:56,720 panama city panama for this sighting we 430 00:18:01,510 --> 00:17:59,440 picked it up from newfork the national 431 00:18:04,710 --> 00:18:01,520 ufo reporting center 432 00:18:06,870 --> 00:18:04,720 this occurred on the 18th of june 2017. 433 00:18:09,270 --> 00:18:06,880 it got a same-day report 434 00:18:11,270 --> 00:18:09,280 the shape of this object was oval and it 435 00:18:12,630 --> 00:18:11,280 was watched by the reporting witness for 436 00:18:15,350 --> 00:18:12,640 one hour 437 00:18:18,549 --> 00:18:15,360 here's the account brightly lit 438 00:18:20,390 --> 00:18:18,559 almond-shaped craft static in the sky in 439 00:18:23,190 --> 00:18:20,400 panama city 440 00:18:25,510 --> 00:18:23,200 an almond or oval-shaped craft was 441 00:18:28,150 --> 00:18:25,520 observed in a direction where no such 442 00:18:31,669 --> 00:18:28,160 object has been observed for a whole two 443 00:18:34,070 --> 00:18:31,679 years before june 18 2017 444 00:18:36,230 --> 00:18:34,080 its proximity to buildings provided 445 00:18:37,510 --> 00:18:36,240 reference points that the craft was 446 00:18:39,750 --> 00:18:37,520 static 447 00:18:42,789 --> 00:18:39,760 the object generated its own energy 448 00:18:45,029 --> 00:18:42,799 source as it was brightly lit 449 00:18:47,110 --> 00:18:45,039 its appearance recalled to me a previous 450 00:18:48,230 --> 00:18:47,120 sighting in early childhood in south 451 00:18:50,070 --> 00:18:48,240 america 452 00:18:52,230 --> 00:18:50,080 this was observed by the entire 453 00:18:55,510 --> 00:18:52,240 neighborhood and it also featured an 454 00:18:58,549 --> 00:18:55,520 object being similarly lit in that south 455 00:19:00,549 --> 00:18:58,559 america sighting the object sat up high 456 00:19:01,750 --> 00:19:00,559 in the sky slightly higher than the 457 00:19:04,789 --> 00:19:01,760 horizon 458 00:19:07,510 --> 00:19:04,799 this craft was located much higher up 459 00:19:09,510 --> 00:19:07,520 possibly in the earth's upper atmosphere 460 00:19:12,230 --> 00:19:09,520 but it was far closer than a satellite 461 00:19:13,430 --> 00:19:12,240 would have been and again it did not 462 00:19:15,270 --> 00:19:13,440 move 463 00:19:18,789 --> 00:19:15,280 stars that evening were also seen 464 00:19:20,630 --> 00:19:18,799 clearly they looked like distant dots 465 00:19:23,350 --> 00:19:20,640 this object also appeared to have a 466 00:19:25,990 --> 00:19:23,360 rod-like shaft of light sticking 467 00:19:27,590 --> 00:19:26,000 downward out of its belly it's not 468 00:19:31,110 --> 00:19:27,600 possible to tell whether this was a 469 00:19:33,430 --> 00:19:31,120 light beam or a solid part of this craft 470 00:19:36,150 --> 00:19:33,440 the general impression was similar to 471 00:19:39,110 --> 00:19:36,160 the flight of a wasp except this object 472 00:19:42,390 --> 00:19:39,120 didn't move because the craft's shape 473 00:19:45,830 --> 00:19:42,400 was elongated it was wasp-like and it 474 00:19:47,669 --> 00:19:45,840 could well have been a transport vehicle 475 00:19:51,270 --> 00:19:47,679 it was too far up in the sky to make out 476 00:19:53,270 --> 00:19:51,280 any occupants it looked rather large 477 00:19:55,430 --> 00:19:53,280 the observer does not know how long the 478 00:19:57,590 --> 00:19:55,440 object remained in place as it was only 479 00:19:59,750 --> 00:19:57,600 seen for an hour after which the 480 00:20:01,590 --> 00:19:59,760 observing person went to bed 481 00:20:04,390 --> 00:20:01,600 the observer has seen craft with the 482 00:20:07,029 --> 00:20:04,400 naked eye twice before but never in this 483 00:20:08,630 --> 00:20:07,039 area of the country this object could 484 00:20:12,390 --> 00:20:08,640 certainly be described as having the 485 00:20:14,310 --> 00:20:12,400 broad characteristics of similar ufos 486 00:20:17,029 --> 00:20:14,320 the reporting observer went out the next 487 00:20:19,430 --> 00:20:17,039 evening and ascertained that no such 488 00:20:21,190 --> 00:20:19,440 object could be seen that night in the 489 00:20:24,150 --> 00:20:21,200 clear night sky 490 00:20:26,630 --> 00:20:24,160 the object had vanished that's always 491 00:20:29,190 --> 00:20:26,640 wise check the next night the planets 492 00:20:32,630 --> 00:20:29,200 the stars ought to be in pretty much the 493 00:20:36,070 --> 00:20:32,640 same location so that thing if it's gone 494 00:20:37,590 --> 00:20:36,080 well it wasn't a planet or a star 495 00:20:40,149 --> 00:20:37,600 we're seeing a bright light in the 496 00:20:42,710 --> 00:20:40,159 distance oh that's our time signal 497 00:20:44,630 --> 00:20:42,720 signaling us we're out of time we've 498 00:20:47,029 --> 00:20:44,640 gotta fly because 499 00:20:49,750 --> 00:20:47,039 that's a wrap thank you for listening to 500 00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:49,760 inception
