yesterday 36 00:01:40,069 --> 00:01:36,640 where i encountered it two years ago he 37 00:01:43,109 --> 00:01:40,079 said he lives in finland near the coast 38 00:01:45,510 --> 00:01:43,119 now two years ago 39 00:01:47,030 --> 00:01:45,520 i was out hunting and i was getting lit 40 00:01:48,950 --> 00:01:47,040 it was getting late and dark so i 41 00:01:50,950 --> 00:01:48,960 decided to head back home 42 00:01:54,069 --> 00:01:50,960 i had about a two or three kilometer 43 00:01:56,550 --> 00:01:54,079 walk through the forest to get to my car 44 00:01:58,389 --> 00:01:56,560 he had gotten pitch black outside and at 45 00:02:02,709 --> 00:01:58,399 this point so i had 46 00:02:05,350 --> 00:02:02,719 an led head headlamp for light as a walk 47 00:02:05,910 --> 00:02:05,360 and as i walked i kept hearing unusually 48 00:02:08,869 --> 00:02:05,920 loud 49 00:02:09,589 --> 00:02:08,879 sounds too i knew something big was 50 00:02:12,790 --> 00:02:09,599 moving 51 00:02:14,949 --> 00:02:12,800 it was i was 100 sure it was a moose 52 00:02:16,790 --> 00:02:14,959 as i've encountered lots of those in in 53 00:02:18,630 --> 00:02:16,800 the forest and they do make a lot of 54 00:02:21,430 --> 00:02:18,640 noise of vibrations 55 00:02:21,990 --> 00:02:21,440 when they walk now i couldn't see 56 00:02:24,710 --> 00:02:22,000 anything 57 00:02:26,150 --> 00:02:24,720 though it was getting closer to me now 58 00:02:29,190 --> 00:02:26,160 all of a sudden this super 59 00:02:32,150 --> 00:02:29,200 awful smell hits me it smells like feces 60 00:02:33,589 --> 00:02:32,160 and something really rotten my hair 61 00:02:35,270 --> 00:02:33,599 stands up and i raise 62 00:02:37,750 --> 00:02:35,280 my shotgun as my whole body 63 00:02:40,550 --> 00:02:37,760 instinctively tells me to run 64 00:02:42,550 --> 00:02:40,560 i just stand still and listen and as the 65 00:02:44,550 --> 00:02:42,560 sounds get closer i see what looks like 66 00:02:47,350 --> 00:02:44,560 a humanoid figure standing 67 00:02:48,869 --> 00:02:47,360 on two feet really tall and it had 68 00:02:50,710 --> 00:02:48,879 easily been with two mirrors 69 00:02:52,949 --> 00:02:50,720 but slender and muscular at the same 70 00:02:56,309 --> 00:02:52,959 time and kind of crouched down 71 00:02:57,430 --> 00:02:56,319 posture it looked almost like a werewolf 72 00:03:00,229 --> 00:02:57,440 from the movies 73 00:03:02,390 --> 00:03:00,239 but at the same time it wasn't it was it 74 00:03:05,589 --> 00:03:02,400 was quite far away so my light barely 75 00:03:08,710 --> 00:03:05,599 went that far but i could still see it 76 00:03:10,229 --> 00:03:08,720 its eyes shined red from my led headlamp 77 00:03:12,309 --> 00:03:10,239 as well 78 00:03:13,990 --> 00:03:12,319 it looked at me for about three seconds 79 00:03:17,110 --> 00:03:14,000 made no sounds 80 00:03:19,270 --> 00:03:17,120 it was but it was breathing weirdly i 81 00:03:20,949 --> 00:03:19,280 think it could smell the two ducks i had 82 00:03:23,670 --> 00:03:20,959 in my backpack 83 00:03:24,869 --> 00:03:23,680 it slowly walked away i even filmed a 84 00:03:28,149 --> 00:03:24,879 little bit of it 85 00:03:31,350 --> 00:03:28,159 as i started walking and uh with my 86 00:03:32,869 --> 00:03:31,360 my iphone was poor quality as my phone 87 00:03:35,990 --> 00:03:32,879 at the time was 88 00:03:39,190 -->

00:05:49,510 --> 00:05:47,520 lights 145 00:05:51,590 --> 00:05:49,520 or the same phenomena that pilots have 146 00:05:55,270 --> 00:05:51,600 encountered during other conflicts 147 00:05:57,430 --> 00:05:55,280 and even modern day uh sightings 148 00:05:59,430 --> 00:05:57,440 um yeah i think they're all part of the 149 00:06:02,150 --> 00:05:59,440 same thing for sure you know 150 00:06:02,710 --> 00:06:02,160 the whole idea of ufos and wartime the 151 00:06:05,110 --> 00:06:02,720 whole 152 00:06:06,070 --> 00:06:05,120 idea to even write a book was we were 153 00:06:08,309 --> 00:06:06,080 having a discussion 154 00:06:09,990 --> 00:06:08,319 once my editor and i you know like a 155 00:06:12,230 --> 00:06:10,000 three-month annie lunch type thing 156 00:06:13,270 --> 00:06:12,240 and um you know i said you know it just 157 00:06:15,430 --> 00:06:13,280 seems like 158 00:06:16,390 --> 00:06:15,440 you know i i read a lot of ufo books 159 00:06:18,629 --> 00:06:16,400 growing up as a kid 160 00:06:20,309 --> 00:06:18,639 and it always was in my mind that it 161 00:06:21,590 --> 00:06:20,319 seems like more ufos are seen more 162 00:06:23,189 --> 00:06:21,600 during war time than 163 00:06:24,309 --> 00:06:23,199 peace time and i just threw that out and 164 00:06:25,830 --> 00:06:24,319 he said well that'd be that's 165 00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:25,840 interesting why would that be and 166 00:06:30,070 --> 00:06:27,600 and i don't know more people looking up 167 00:06:32,629 --> 00:06:30,080 at the sky more people flying 168 00:06:33,590 --> 00:06:32,639 more chances to spot ufos you know who 169 00:06:35,830 --> 00:06:33,600 knows 170 00:06:37,510 --> 00:06:35,840 so that's how that book came about and 171 00:06:39,909 --> 00:06:37,520 we just you know put together 172 00:06:41,590 --> 00:06:39,919 a couple hundred stories on instances 173 00:06:44,150 --> 00:06:41,600 where ufos showed up 174 00:06:45,510 --> 00:06:44,160 uh you know during times of war you know 175 00:06:47,510 --> 00:06:45,520 lots as you say 176 00:06:49,270 --> 00:06:47,520 the foo fighters in world war ii is 177 00:06:50,550 --> 00:06:49,280 probably example that most people 178 00:06:52,950 --> 00:06:50,560 remember but there were a lot of them 179 00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:52,960 over korea over vietnam 180 00:06:57,189 --> 00:06:55,680 um world war one as well in between the 181 00:07:00,070 --> 00:06:57,199 laws 182 00:07:00,550 --> 00:07:00,080 so um we don't really know the answer 183 00:07:04,070 --> 00:07:00,560 you know 184 00:07:05,830 --> 00:07:04,080 if if people if if ufos show up 185 00:07:07,430 --> 00:07:05,840 in wartime more than peacetime but 186 00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:07,440 people do i think we make a pretty good 187 00:07:11,670 --> 00:07:09,120 case that people 188 00:07:12,790 --> 00:07:11,680 see more ufos during war time is it is 189 00:07:13,670 --> 00:07:12,800 it because they're here because it's 190 00:07:15,749 --> 00:07:13,680 wartime or as 191 00:07:18,230 --> 00:07:15,759 ours as we as i said before uh people 192 00:07:19,830 --> 00:07:18,240 just kind of looking up at the sky more 193 00:07:21,430 --> 00:07:19,840 yeah i've heard a lot of different 194 00:07:23,189 --> 00:07:21,440 theories about what 195 00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:23,199 what people think it is you know people 196 00:07:28,870 --> 00:07:25,280 say well maybe it's the stress 197 00:07:31,350 --> 00:07:28,880 and you know they're seeing things or 198 00:07:33,270 --> 00:07:31,360 whatever or just are mistaking you for 199 00:07:34,870 --> 00:07:33,280 ordinance or 200 00:07:36,550 --> 00:07:34,880 i i don't think that's the case i think 201 00:07:37,670 --> 00:07:36,560 you're right i think there's something 202 00:07:39,749 --> 00:07:37,680 behind it 203 00:07:40,870 --> 00:07:39,759 i i remember you mentioning at the time 204 00:07:46,550 --> 00:07:40,880 that 205 00:07:47,990 --> 00:07:46,560 is is very prevalent during conflict 206 00:07:51,670 --> 00:07:48,000 here on earth 207 00:07:54,869 --> 00:07:51,680 and uh if it is something 208 00:07:55,350 --> 00:07:54,879 time extraterrestrial phenomena you know 209 00:07:58,550 --> 00:07:55,360 maybe 210 00:08:01,110 --> 00:07:58,560 they're they're appearing as 211 00:08:02,550 --> 00:08:01,120 uh you know as watchers or

--> 00:09:07,760 secret weapon that they were using or 249 00:09:11,670 --> 00:09:09,120 employing 250 00:09:13,110 --> 00:09:11,680 um to kind of cause some type of 251 00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:13,120 disruption with with 252 00:09:16,949 --> 00:09:15,760 the bombers and such right i don't know 253 00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:16,959 how much of that you 254 00:09:20,790 --> 00:09:18,880 buy into i don't

know a lot 258 00:09:29,430 --> 00:09:27,120 and we talk about in ufos and what time 259 00:09:32,150 --> 00:09:29,440 as well is you know 260 00:09:35,190 --> 00:09:32,160 who knows why uh people want to kind of 261 00:09:36,870 --> 00:09:35,200 link these two things you know uh but 262 00:09:38,310 --> 00:09:36,880 you have to just you know think for a 263 00:09:41,829 --> 00:09:38,320 second that 264 00:09:43,750 --> 00:09:41,839 and in 1943 the uh 265 00:09:45,030 --> 00:09:43,760 germans you know fielded the first jet 266 00:09:48,470 --> 00:09:45,040 fighter ever 267 00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:48,480 me 262 okay and and it was a real jet 268 00:09:52,310 --> 00:09:50,000 fighter it was a real danger 269 00:09:53,910 --> 00:09:52,320 it came too late in the war really to do 270 00:09:56,949 --> 00:09:53,920 anything for them 271 00:10:01,350 --> 00:09:56,959 but it was a true jet fighter the 272 00:10:04,310 --> 00:10:01,360 cockpits of me 262s 273 00:10:05,110 --> 00:10:04,320 were made of plywood because the german 274 00:10:07,509 --> 00:10:05,120 military 275 00:10:08,230 --> 00:10:07,519 machine the german war machine couldn't 276 00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:08,240 afford 277 00:10:13,590 --> 00:10:10,880 the steel that you know um that that 278 00:10:15,110 --> 00:10:13,600 would have protected the pilot certainly 279 00:10:16,630 --> 00:10:15,120 they just couldn't afford it they they 280 00:10:18,470 --> 00:10:16,640 couldn't afford to put the best 281 00:10:20,310 --> 00:10:18,480 materials in their jet fighters then 282 00:10:22,710 --> 00:10:20,320 how would they have you know ufos and 283 00:10:25,509 --> 00:10:22,720 how would they have disruptors and 284 00:10:27,910 --> 00:10:25,519 ray guns and you know a base on the moon 285 00:10:30,310 --> 00:10:27,920 and the basin antarctica and everything 286 00:10:32,230 --> 00:10:30,320 they lost the war if they had any kind 287 00:10:34,230 --> 00:10:32,240 any kind of technology like that why did 288 00:10:36,389 --> 00:10:34,240 they lose the law you know so 289 00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:36,399 i don't buy any of that nazis uh had you 290 00:10:40,550 --> 00:10:37,680 know ufo help or 291 00:10:41,430 --> 00:10:40,560 help from aliens or or whatever i it 292 00:10:44,150 --> 00:10:41,440 just doesn't 293 00:10:45,670 --> 00:10:44,160 if you look at the you know the facts 294 00:10:45,990 --> 00:10:45,680 after world war ii we went through the 295 00:10:47,350 --> 00:10:46,000 united 296 00:10:49,670 --> 00:10:47,360 states went through in russia and went 297 00:10:50,310 --> 00:10:49,680 through everything any german scientist 298 00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:50,320 ever did 299 00:10:54,389 --> 00:10:52,320 we took a lot of that technology we took 300 00:10:56,870 --> 00:10:54,399 that scientists they put us on the moon 301 00:10:58,389 --> 00:10:56,880 they found absolutely no evidence that 302 00:11:01,509 --> 00:10:58,399 the nazis were building 303 00:11:04,150 --> 00:11:01,519 ufos or had nuclear yellow bell 304 00:11:05,030 --> 00:11:04,160 and nuclear power and anti-grav it none 305 00:11:07,509 --> 00:11:05,040 of it holds up 306 00:11:08,470 --> 00:11:07,519 you know it's all just myth yeah you 307 00:11:11,430 --> 00:11:08,480 know i read 308 00:11:13,190 --> 00:11:11,440 as much as possible as far as operation 309 00:11:14,949 --> 00:11:13,200 paper clip after the war 310 00:11:17,110 --> 00:11:14,959 and i really didn't see anything that 311 00:11:19,269 --> 00:11:17,120 really proved or even 312 00:11:21,670 --> 00:11:19,279 uh gave much basis to any of those 313 00:11:23,750 --> 00:11:21,680 theories so it keeps it seems to prevail 314 00:11:27,509 --> 00:11:23,760 all the time i mean you know 315 00:11:30,470 --> 00:11:27,519 uh it seems like every time you turn 316 00:11:31,750 --> 00:11:30,480 around and the nazi comes up here and 317 00:11:33,670 --> 00:11:31,760 there and the germans 318 00:11:35,190 --> 00:11:33,680 developed this or possibly developed 319 00:11:38,310 --> 00:11:35,200 that and 320 00:11:40,710 --> 00:11:38,320 uh i i just don't see it as well 321 00:11:41,670 --> 00:11:40,720 no i mean you know they they were they 322 00:11:43,110 --> 00:11:41,680 did have these things 323 00:11:45,269 --> 00:11:43,120 they're wonder weapons there's no doubt 324 00:11:46,949 --> 00:11:45,279 about it you know the v1 v2 325 00:11:49,030 --> 00:11:46,959 rockets they were the first ones to 326 00:11:50,790 --> 00:11:49,040 develop a tv bomb they actually had a 327 00:11:54,389 --> 00:11:50,800 bomb that they would drop from a 328 00:11:56,310 --> 00:11:54,399 from a a an airplane and the um 329 00:11:57,750 --> 00:11:56,320 bombardier would guide it down with with 330 00:11:59,430 --> 00:11:57,760 the television set you know it was like 331 00:12:00,470 --> 00:11:59,440 the first smart weapon they did have 332 00:12:04,310 --> 00:12:00,480 these things 333 00:12:06,629 --> 00:12:04,320 but they didn't have the military 334 00:12:07,910 --> 00:12:06,639 the capacity the natural the national 335 00:12:09,910 --> 00:12:07,920 capacity to 336 00:12:11,430 --> 00:12:09,920 build these things you know in numbers 337 00:12:13,030 --> 00:12:11,440 that would have had some effect in the 338 00:12:13,990 --> 00:12:13,040 wall because they were getting bombed 339 00:12:17,269 --> 00:12:14,000 around the clock 340 00:12:18,870 --> 00:12:17,279 for four years and uh you know they were 341 00:12:20,710 --> 00:12:18,880 they were just running out of stuff they 342 00:12:22,310 --> 00:12:20,720 were running out of rubber you know they 343 00:12:24,790 --> 00:12:22,320 they ran out of oil that's how you know 344 00:12:28,790 --> 00:12:24,800 they they invented synthetic oil 345 00:12:31,030 --> 00:12:28,800 practically and um um you know so 346 00:12:32,069 --> 00:12:31,040 like you know anyone who makes the who 347 00:12:33,190 --> 00:12:32,079 you know we have on the show at times 348 00:12:34,470 --> 00:12:33,200 that makes that argument i just said 349 00:12:35,590 --> 00:12:34,480 well if they had all you know once can 350 00:12:38,550 --> 00:12:35,600 go back to it if they had all this 351 00:12:42,550 --> 00:12:38,560 technology why did they lose the war 352 00:12:45,269 --> 00:12:42,560 exactly so uh your newest book the 353 00:12:46,470 --> 00:12:45,279 haunted universe is it's full of a lot 354 00:12:49,670 --> 00:12:46,480 of 355 00:12:52,310 --> 00:12:49,680 possible ufo military connections and a 356 00:12:53,670 --> 00:12:52,320 wide variety unusual events now 357 00:12:56,230 --> 00:12:53,680 you've had some several strange 358 00:12:59,670 --> 00:12:56,240 encounters as well can you describe 359 00:13:02,389

00:22:02,559 publication here in the us 628 00:22:06,950 --> 00:22:04,720 more so back then they did a big story 629 00:22:09,510 --> 00:22:06,960 on it and peter jennings also 630 00:22:11,830 --> 00:22:09,520 uh did a story on it um you know about 631 00:22:13,669 --> 00:22:11,840 two or three years before he died and 632 00:22:15,110 --> 00:22:13,679 you know something was happening to our 633 00:22:16,710 --> 00:22:15,120 nuclear forces 634 00:22:18,710 --> 00:22:16,720 you know that where these ufos could 635 00:22:20,870 --> 00:22:18,720 could show up and literally shut down 636 00:22:22,549 --> 00:22:20,880 our nuclear personnel you know and then 637 00:22:23,750 --> 00:22:22,559 as it turns out as you say you know once 638 00:22:25,270 --> 00:22:23,760 the soviet union fell 639 00:22:26,710 --> 00:22:25,280 and we were able to get more information 640 00:22:27,990 --> 00:22:26,720 out of that place it turns out that you 641 00:22:29,350 --> 00:22:28,000 know some of the things were happening 642 00:22:32,390 --> 00:22:29,360 over there too so 643 00:22:33,990 --> 00:22:32,400 you know people it it really is good uh 644 00:22:36,070 --> 00:22:34,000 grist let's say for people who say you 645 00:22:37,750 --> 00:22:36,080 know ufos are here to prevent us you 646 00:22:39,590 --> 00:22:37,760 know from killing each other 647 00:22:42,070 --> 00:22:39,600 um i agree with you i think we've come 648 00:22:44,230 --> 00:22:42,080 many more than several times close to 649 00:22:46,390 --> 00:22:44,240 nuclear accidents because you know a few 650 00:22:47,669 --> 00:22:46,400 ufos like starting 651 00:22:49,510 --> 00:22:47,679 i know they they started a launch 652 00:22:52,710 --> 00:22:49,520 sequence at a russian 653 00:22:53,990 --> 00:22:52,720 icbm base in the ukraine um you know it 654 00:22:56,630 --> 00:22:54,000 was like 20 seconds 655 00:22:58,230 --> 00:22:56,640 before they started launching missiles 656 00:23:00,549 --> 00:22:58,240 at the united states and all of a sudden 657 00:23:02,310 --> 00:23:00,559 they shot them the ufo shut them down i 658 00:23:05,110 --> 00:23:02,320 mean that's someone fooling around with 659 00:23:06,870 --> 00:23:05,120 nuclear technology and and it's not us 660 00:23:09,430 --> 00:23:06,880 and it's not the russians obviously so 661 00:23:11,750 --> 00:23:09,440 it's got to be somebody and 662 00:23:14,390 --> 00:23:11,760 who knows yeah that's just yeah who 663 00:23:15,590 --> 00:23:14,400 knows you you have no idea what really 664 00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:15,600 has happened 665 00:23:19,110 --> 00:23:17,760 or what could have happened and uh but 666 00:23:22,310 --> 00:23:19,120 i'm like you 667 00:23:25,510 --> 00:23:22,320 i think i i think 668 00:23:28,710 --> 00:23:25,520 a lot of this may actually be 669 00:23:32,470 --> 00:23:28,720 either our ancestors that had 670 00:23:34,549 --> 00:23:32,480 you know had maybe traveled to another 671 00:23:37,430 --> 00:23:34,559 planet or another civilization 672 00:23:38,870 --> 00:23:37,440 or our descendants evolved and are 673 00:23:42,710 --> 00:23:38,880 coming back but i think 674 00:23:44,470 --> 00:23:42,720 a lot of the disasters that could have 675 00:23:46,390 --> 00:23:44,480 happened in our history have been 676 00:23:48,789 --> 00:23:46,400 avoided 677 00:23:50,470 --> 00:23:48,799 well yeah we've come close you know i 678 00:23:52,549 --> 00:23:50,480 mean really think about it we have come 679 00:23:55,909 --> 00:23:52,559 close and 680 00:23:56,549 --> 00:23:55,919 you know in in it i i think that a lot 681 00:23:58,230 --> 00:23:56,559 of people 682 00:23:59,990 --> 00:23:58,240 you know me included and who wouldn't 683 00:24:02,789 --> 00:24:00,000 want to this to be the case that 684 00:24:05,029 --> 00:24:02,799 to think that hey maybe they are looking 685 00:24:06,870 --> 00:24:05,039 out for us maybe the 686 00:24:08,710 --> 00:24:06,880 you know they're here to as i say 687 00:24:09,510 --> 00:24:08,720 prevent us from maybe wiping out the 688 00:24:11,029 --> 00:24:09,520 planet i mean 689 00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:11,039 they haven't been too good in preventing 690 00:24:15,510 --> 00:24:12,720 us from fighting each other 691 00:24:15,990 --> 00:24:15,520 but they but they do seem to look into 692 00:24:19,990 --> 00:24:16,000 you know 693 00:24:21,750 --> 00:24:20,000 ever seen that 694 00:24:23,590 --> 00:24:21,760 that you know we've put in the books and 695 00:24:25,190 --> 00:24:23,600 so on these things 696 00:24:26,470 --> 00:24:25,200 are always just kind of observing 697 00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:26,480 they're never taking any kind of 698 00:24:30,310 --> 00:24:27,679 military action against 699 00:24:31,990 --> 00:24:30,320 us against our bombers against anyone 700 00:24:34,789 --> 00:24:32,000 they're always just kind of 701 00:24:36,149 --> 00:24:34,799 there and in in all the stories and ufos 702 00:24:38,710 --> 00:24:36,159 and a lot of time i think there's 703 00:24:40,070 --> 00:24:38,720 maybe four where you know ufos have 704 00:24:41,750 --> 00:24:40,080 actually you know kind of shot at 705 00:24:43,350 --> 00:24:41,760 somebody and and then we have you know 706 00:24:44,549 --> 00:24:43,360 hundreds of other reports where they're 707 00:24:46,070 --> 00:24:44,559 just kind of 708 00:24:47,990 --> 00:24:46,080 you know looking in you know just kind 709 00:24:48,789 --> 00:24:48,000 of looking in watching us what we're 710 00:24:50,870 --> 00:24:48,799 doing 711 00:24:52,789 --> 00:24:50,880 and um and that's it that that time 712 00:24:55,110 --> 00:24:52,799 travel thing or the time tourist thing 713 00:24:56,310 --> 00:24:55,120 i think would be would be an interesting 714 00:24:58,149 --> 00:24:56,320 if it turned out to be something like 715 00:25:00,149 --> 00:24:58,159 that i think it'd be very cool 716 00:25:02,630 --> 00:25:00,159 well i i'll be honest with you i have 717 00:25:03,750 --> 00:25:02,640 heard a few stories of something similar 718 00:25:07,350 --> 00:25:03,760 to that 719 00:25:09,269 --> 00:25:07,360 like uh where experiences would tell me 720 00:25:11,190 --> 00:25:09,279 that they would see these things he 721 00:25:13,750 --> 00:25:11,200 seems to come through portals and it's 722 00:25:15,750 --> 00:25:13,760 almost like they were taking a tour like 723 00:25:17,350 --> 00:25:15,760 they were fascinated with with us and 724 00:25:19,190 --> 00:25:17,360 how we live and 725 00:25:21,029 --> 00:25:19,200 you know and you know when you first 726 00:25:21,830 --> 00:25:21,039 hear something like that you think uh 727 00:25:23,909 --> 00:25:21,840 come on 728 00:25:25,830 --> 00:25:23,919 but when you start hearing more and more 729 00:25:29,110 --> 00:25:25,840 and more of it and 730 00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:29,120 you know it's and it it's something it's 731 00:25:33,269 --> 00:25:30,720 got to be something to it 732 00:25:34,549 --> 00:25:33,279 it really does right it's uh someone 733 00:25:36,870 --> 00:25:34,559 once um 734 00:25:38,070 --> 00:25:36,880 you know i was in some discussion 735 00:25:39,510 --> 00:25:38,080 somewhere in and 736 00:25:42,310 --> 00:25:39,520 uh we might have put this in the book 737 00:25:45,350 --> 00:25:42,320 too they they equated it to 738 00:25:46,230 --> 00:25:45,360 um if one of us won a safari okay you 739 00:25:47,990 --> 00:25:46,240 know so if 740 00:25:49,590 --> 00:25:48,000 whatever if we were gonna go on a safari 741 00:25:50,310 --> 00:25:49,600 we would get on a plane we'd left in the 742 00:25:52,390 --> 00:25:50,320 us we'd 743 00:25:53,669 --> 00:25:52,400 go to africa we'd land we'd get on one 744 00:25:55,669 --> 00:25:53,679 of those um 745 00:25:57,590 --> 00:25:55,679 buses that goes out in the savannah 746 00:25:59,110 --> 00:25:57,600 right and uh 747 00:26:01,110 --> 00:25:59,120 you know you watch the you know the 748 00:26:02,470 --> 00:26:01,120 lions eat the antelopes and that kind of 749 00:26:05,269 --> 00:26:02,480 stuff right you see 750 00:26:05,990 --> 00:26:05,279 now now those those animals you know 751 00:26:07,590 --> 00:26:06,000 they're they're all 752 00:26:09,590 --> 00:26:07,600 they're used to it if you see that like 753 00:26:11,269 --> 00:26:09,600 a national geographic or something the 754 00:26:13,350 --> 00:26:11,279 the the big cats will come right up to 755 00:26:15,909 --> 00:26:13,360 the trucks okay 756 00:26:17,269 --> 00:26:15,919 you know and and and they're almost like 757 00:26:18,789 --> 00:26:17,279 you know they don't know the 758 00:26:20,230 --> 00:26:18,799 the animals don't know what we're doing 759 00:26:22,470 --> 00:26:20,240 there they don't have any sense of a 760 00:26:23,590 --> 00:26:22,480 safari or people you know being tourists 761 00:26:25,750 --> 00:26:23,600 or anything they're just 762 00:26:27,269 --> 00:26:25,760 there and they go about their daily 763 00:26:28,390 --> 00:26:27,279 business and they have sometimes it 764 00:26:28,710 --> 00:26:28,400 happens to be a truck there well it's 765 00:26:30,630 --> 00:26:28,720 like 766 00:26:32,549 --> 00:26:30,640 it could be the same for us you know we 767 00:26:33,750 --> 00:26:32,559 see ufos all the time maybe just like 768 00:26:35,590 --> 00:26:33,760 the animals can't 769 00:26:37,269 --> 00:26:35,600 you know understand what a how a truck 770 00:26:38,870 --> 00:26:37,279 works and what a tourist is maybe we 771 00:26:40,149 --> 00:26:38,880 can't understand what a ufo is but 772 00:26:41,669 --> 00:26:40,159 they're there all the time they're 773 00:26:44,470 --> 00:26:41,679 watching us just like you know 774 00:26:46,310 --> 00:26:44,480 someone on safari watches uh the

directors ever and he does big budget 826 00:28:25,269 --> 00:28:22,000 films and so on 827 00:28:27,510 --> 00:28:25,279 but in my mind you know he he's 828 00:28:29,269 --> 00:28:27,520 he's a he's a successful director but 829 00:28:31,029 --> 00:28:29,279 he's not a great director because he he 830 00:28:33,510 --> 00:28:31,039 has a hard time telling a story if you 831 00:28:35,590 --> 00:28:33,520 really look at his some of his movies 832 00:28:36,950 --> 00:28:35,600 uh in close encounters is the perfect 833 00:28:39,190 --> 00:28:36,960 example when you 834 00:28:40,310 --> 00:28:39,200 i love that movie i did part of my 835 00:28:43,750 --> 00:28:40,320 dissertation 836 00:28:44,710 --> 00:28:43,760 on close encounters but if you sit and 837 00:28:46,789 --> 00:28:44,720 watch it 838 00:28:49,029 --> 00:28:46,799 it it really doesn't make a lot of sense 839 00:28:49,990 --> 00:28:49,039 in and it's an unbalanced movie and i 840 00:28:51,990 --> 00:28:50,000 know it came out 841 00:28:53,669 --> 00:28:52,000 you know the mid 70s and probably people 842 00:28:54,310 --> 00:28:53,679 listening to us now maybe have never 843 00:28:56,389 --> 00:28:54,320 seen it 844 00:28:58,310 --> 00:28:56,399 i would say go see it you know but it's 845 00:28:59,830 --> 00:28:58,320 it's don't expect any good effects 846 00:29:01,110 --> 00:28:59,840 because there was very very primitive 847 00:29:03,830 --> 00:29:01,120 special effects 848 00:29:05,269 --> 00:29:03,840 but the story is just a lot of the story 849 00:29:06,630 --> 00:29:05,279 has to do with richard dreyfus you know 850 00:29:08,630 --> 00:29:06,640 building mountains made up 851 00:29:09,669 --> 00:29:08,640 out of potatoes in his mashed potatoes 852 00:29:12,389 --> 00:29:09,679 in his house i mean 853 00:29:13,510 --> 00:29:12,399 as crazy as that sounds that somehow 854 00:29:15,990 --> 00:29:13,520 links to this 855 00:29:18,230 --> 00:29:16,000 landing of this majestic flying saucer 856 00:29:21,430 --> 00:29:18,240 out on devil's tower in wyoming 857 00:29:23,590 --> 00:29:21,440 um it's it's not told in the right way 858 00:29:24,470 --> 00:29:23,600 and maybe only film students like me can 859 00:29:28,710 --> 00:29:24,480 you know 860 00:29:30,630 --> 00:29:28,720 encounters with with ai 861 00:29:32,630 --> 00:29:30,640 when he did ai which is basically taking 862 00:29:35,430 --> 00:29:32,640 stanley kubrick's uh 863 00:29:36,549 --> 00:29:35,440 script and and making the movie ai them 864 00:29:37,909 --> 00:29:36,559 that movie is terrible 865 00:29:40,549 --> 00:29:37,919 i mean if you sit there and watch that 866 00:29:43,029 --> 00:29:40,559 there's so many plot holes in it and 867 00:29:43,909 --> 00:29:43,039 and and it like missing scenes and stuff 868 00:29:45,990 --> 00:29:43,919 like that 869 00:29:47,590 --> 00:29:46,000 um you know what were the worlds with 870 00:29:49,990 --> 00:29:47,600 tom cruise which was a pretty good movie 871 00:29:52,630 --> 00:29:50,000 it's a great movie special effects wise 872 00:29:54,630 --> 00:29:52,640 but um you know and and that was a very 873 00:29:58,149 --> 00:29:54,640 successful movie but 874 00:29:59,750 --> 00:29:58,159 at the end you know uh we talk about how 875 00:30:01,830 --> 00:29:59,760 you know the martians have like 876 00:30:03,350 --> 00:30:01,840 absolutely destroyed the earth 877 00:30:05,269 --> 00:30:03,360 they've destroyed the earth and 878 00:30:06,950 --> 00:30:05,279 especially boston where i'm from if you 879 00:30:09,510 --> 00:30:06,960 can't tell by my accent 880 00:30:11,750 --> 00:30:09,520 and you know in tom cruise basically the 881 00:30:13,430 --> 00:30:11,760 movie is tom cruise taking his kids 882 00:30:14,870 --> 00:30:13,440 he's divorced he's taking his kids to 883 00:30:16,870 --> 00:30:14,880 the safety of their mother in 884 00:30:18,789 --> 00:30:16,880 in boston he has this long trip and you 885 00:30:21,269 --> 00:30:18,799 know runs into the aliens and so on 886 00:30:22,950 --> 00:30:21,279 and at the end when he finally does 887 00:30:24,710 --> 00:30:22,960 return the kids 888 00:30:26,470 --> 00:30:24,720 the mother comes down now this is this 889 00:30:28,230 --> 00:30:26,480 is every place has been destroyed except 890 00:30:29,750 --> 00:30:28,240 this pot this little piece of bus and i 891 00:30:31,269 --> 00:30:29,760 guess where the father is 892 00:30:33,190 --> 00:30:31,279 and it's like nothing's happened there's 893 00:30:36,070 --> 00:30:33,200 like a few more leaves on the 894 00:30:37,750 --> 00:30:36,080 street and you know that's it you know 895 00:30:38,310 --> 00:30:37,760 and and she comes out and she's all 896 00:30:39,590 --> 00:30:38,320 dressed and 897 00:30:41,350 --> 00:30:39,600 you know she might have had she might as 898 00:30:42,310 --> 00:30:41,360 well have like a cup of coffee you know 899 00:30:45,510 --> 00:30:42,320 you know 900 00:30:47,110 --> 00:30:45,520 it it was just so it just didn't match 901 00:30:49,029 --> 00:30:47,120 up it just doesn't match up and i know 902 00:30:50,630 --> 00:30:49,039 he want to do that big ending and it's 903 00:30:51,909 --> 00:30:50,640 it's really basically the ending of the 904 00:30:53,669 --> 00:30:51,919 movie the searches 905 00:30:56,230 --> 00:30:53,679 with john wayne he just kind of copped 906 00:30:57,909 --> 00:30:56,240 that but it's not good movie making it's 907 00:30:58,549 --> 00:30:57,919 successful movie making but it's not 908 00:31:00,310 --> 00:30:58,559 good movie 909 00:31:01,430 --> 00:31:00,320 making so that's my beef with him that's 910 00:31:01,830 --> 00:31:01,440 the long way of telling you that's what 911 00:31:04,070 --> 00:31:01,840 might be 912 00:31:06,310 --> 00:31:04,080 that movie is kind of so anti-climatic 913 00:31:08,310 --> 00:31:06,320 too i mean at the end you know they just 914 00:31:09,669 --> 00:31:08,320 a bacteria got to them and that right 915 00:31:11,269 --> 00:31:09,679 you know yeah i mean 916 00:31:12,870 --> 00:31:11,279 that's the and that was it i mean and 917 00:31:14,149 --> 00:31:12,880 that's from the original story in the in 918 00:31:15,430 --> 00:31:14,159 the the movie that they made in the 919 00:31:17,909 --> 00:31:15,440 early 50s with 920 00:31:19,750 --> 00:31:17,919 gene barry right is a really good movie 921 00:31:21,430 --> 00:31:19,760 you know that sticks a little bit more 922 00:31:24,470 --> 00:31:21,440 towards to the um 923 00:31:25,990 --> 00:31:24,480 to the original um and and it has some 924 00:31:27,830 --> 00:31:26,000 cool special effects in it even though 925 00:31:29,830 --> 00:31:27,840 it's like early 50s and 926 00:31:32,149 --> 00:31:29,840 um you know and that's a really kind of 927 00:31:34,070 --> 00:31:32,159 um compelling movie the first one 928 00:31:35,430 --> 00:31:34,080 and the one with tom cruise is too they 929 00:31:36,950 --> 00:31:35,440 make a big mistake at the beginning 930 00:31:37,830 --> 00:31:36,960 because at the very beginning tom 931 00:31:40,630 --> 00:31:37,840 cruise's uh 932 00:31:41,669 --> 00:31:40,640 character runs one of those uh cranes 933 00:31:43,590 --> 00:31:41,679 like at the port of 934 00:31:45,269 --> 00:31:43,600 bayonne i think you know right those 935 00:31:47,509 --> 00:31:45,279 whole cranes that take those uh you know 936 00:31:49,110 --> 00:31:47,519 containers off the container ships 937 00:31:51,509 --> 00:31:49,120 and then it shows him and he's he goes 938 00:31:52,950 --> 00:31:51,519 home to his let's say his modest house 939 00:31:54,549 --> 00:31:52,960 and i've never seen that and i wanted to 940 00:31:55,909 --> 00:31:54,559 say you know if i had spielberg in front 941 00:31:56,310 --> 00:31:55,919 of me i'd say do you have any idea how 942 00:31:59,190 --> 00:31:56,320 much 943 00:31:59,990 --> 00:31:59,200 money those guys make they're not living 944 00:32:01,430 --> 00:32:00,000 in bayonne 945 00:32:04,470 --> 00:32:01,440 i'm sorry they're not you know they make 946 00:32:06,950 --> 00:32:04,480 about 150 grand a year yeah longshoremen 947 00:32:08,549 --> 00:32:06,960 do pretty well yeah yeah and the guy in 948 00:32:11,269 --> 00:32:08,559 those crane operators you know 949 00:32:12,630 --> 00:32:11,279 are at top of the heap so yeah they kind 950 00:32:13,190 --> 00:32:12,640 of get that wrong and it's stuff like 951 00:32:14,950 --> 00:32:13,200 that 952 00:32:16,310 --> 00:32:14,960 and he has stuff in his movies where i i 953 00:32:17,750 --> 00:32:16,320 know you can just tell he 954 00:32:18,950 --> 00:32:17,760 is he's saying oh you know we'll let the 955 00:32:20,389 --> 00:32:18,960 audience figure it out you're not 956 00:32:21,669 --> 00:32:20,399 supposed to do that in movies you 957 00:32:24,070 --> 00:32:21,679 if you put something on the screen you 958 00:32:26,870 --> 00:32:24,080 have to explain it you know 959 00:32:28,470 --> 00:32:26,880 i tell you my biggest beaver spielberg 960 00:32:29,830 --> 00:32:28,480 and i love his movies but i tell you 961 00:32:32,149 --> 00:32:29,840 poltergeist 962 00:32:33,590 --> 00:32:32,159 was the movie that really got me because 963 00:32:35,750 --> 00:32:33,600 you know 964 00:32:38,230 --> 00:32:35,760 that whole phenomena in that poltergeist 965 00:32:40,710 --> 00:32:38,240 movie has nothing to do with poltergeist 966 00:32:42,470 --> 00:32:40,720 right yeah you know sure it's like they 967 00:32:45,029 --> 00:32:42,480 built the house on top of 968 00:32:46,710 --> 00:32:45,039 a cemetery that they kept the bodies in 969 00:32:50,070 --> 00:32:46,720 and never removed the bodies 970 00:32:53,190 --> 00:32:50,080 well i'm sorry that's not a poltergeist 971 00:32:54,389 --> 00:32:53,200 and uh you know i i guess they had to 972 00:32:57,350 --> 00:32:54,399 use the name 973 00:32:59,029 --> 00:32:57,360 you know i had talked to uh one of the 974 00:33:01,590 --> 00:32:59,039 associates 975 00:33:03,990 --> 00:33:01,600 uh the guy by the name of victor who i 976 00:33:07,110 --> 00:33:04,000 did the movie with spielberg 977 00:33:07,830 --> 00:33:07,120 and they actually there was a big 978 00:33:10,950 --> 00:33:07,840 discussion 979 00:33:13,509 --> 00:33:10,960 not using the the actual name the uh 980 00:33:15,190 --> 00:33:13,519 book for that movie because it really 981 00:33:17,029 --> 00:33:15,200 had nothing to do with portuguese and i 982 00:33:19,269 --> 00:33:17,039 think they realized that 983 00:33:21,110 --> 00:33:19,279 but uh yeah it that's something that's 984 00:33:22,310 --> 00:33:21,120 always bothered me well they need a name 985 00:33:25,350 --> 00:33:22,320 you know they needed a cool 986 00:33:27,830 --> 00:33:25,360 name and and they used it you know 987 00:33:29,830 --> 00:33:27,840 now some of uh spielberg's movies are 988 00:33:30,950 --> 00:33:29,840 rubbed like a minority report which is 989 00:33:32,470 --> 00:33:30,960 something that 990 00:33:33,909 --> 00:33:32,480 a lot of people really haven't seen but 991 00:33:35,590 --> 00:33:33,919 that's a great movie that's one of his 992 00:33:36,630 --> 00:33:35,600 best movies that i've seen him uh i 993 00:33:39,909 --> 00:33:36,640 agree with you 994 00:33:40,789 --> 00:33:39,919 um but um you know saving private ryan 995 00:33:43,350 --> 00:33:40,799 just you nothing 996 00:33:45,350 --> 00:33:43,360 down this road too far but if you watch 997 00:33:46,470 --> 00:33:45,360 private ryan which is a great anti-war 998 00:33:47,990 --> 00:33:46,480 movie you know i think that should be 999 00:33:49,590 --> 00:33:48,000 shown to every high school kid before 1000 00:33:50,870 --> 00:33:49,600 you go join the marines or the army or 1001 00:33:52,389 --> 00:33:50,880 whatever you know watch that movie 1002 00:33:54,389 --> 00:33:52,399 because it really depicts 1003 00:33:56,070 --> 00:33:54,399 as close as i think you can possibly get 1004 00:33:57,509 --> 00:33:56,080 to what real war is you know people just 1005 00:33:59,430 --> 00:33:57,519 sudden death and 1006 00:34:02,070 --> 00:33:59,440 just gory and terrible you know it's not 1007 00:34:03,430 --> 00:34:02,080 all this heroism uh stuff so they depict 1008 00:34:05,590 --> 00:34:03,440 that very well but 1009 00:34:07,190 --> 00:34:05,600 the point of the movie is that that you 1010 00:34:08,629 --> 00:34:07,200 know there are four brothers three of 1011 00:34:10,550 --> 00:34:08,639 them have been killed in action so they 1012 00:34:12,790 --> 00:34:10,560 got to go get private ryan the last 1013 00:34:14,550 --> 00:34:12,800 brother because you know basically 1014 00:34:17,109 --> 00:34:14,560 the the white house doesn't want the bad 1015 00:34:19,669 --> 00:34:17,119 publicity of four kids dying so 1016 00:34:21,589 --> 00:34:19,679 you know the message comes to the d-day 1017 00:34:23,030 --> 00:34:21,599 landing site you have to go and get this 1018 00:34:24,950 --> 00:34:23,040 guy and bring him back you got to go 1019 00:34:26,310 --> 00:34:24,960 find him okay and the president wants 1020 00:34:29,030 --> 00:34:26,320 you to do this okay 1021 00:34:31,990 --> 00:34:29,040 so they sent out five guys on foot no 1022 00:34:34,790 --> 00:34:32,000 you'd send like 40 tanks 1023 00:34:36,550 --> 00:34:34,800 i mean seriously right yeah yeah he went 1024 00:34:38,230 --> 00:34:36,560 five guys on foot 1025 00:34:39,829 -->

this there's no that 1231 00:41:08,230 --> 00:41:06,240 um you know there's reasons for that 1232 00:41:10,150 --> 00:41:08,240 and um i think because the the 1233 00:41:12,390 --> 00:41:10,160 reflection off of the 1234 00:41:14,150 --> 00:41:12,400 uh the the powder on the moon actually 1235 00:41:16,550 --> 00:41:14,160 washes out the stars 1236 00:41:18,230 --> 00:41:16,560 um they were there and this the 1237 00:41:21,270 --> 00:41:18,240 equipment is still there 1238 00:41:21,750 --> 00:41:21,280 and there's just you know so much proof 1239 00:41:24,950 --> 00:41:21,760 that 1240 00:41:25,589 --> 00:41:24,960 know it's in my opinion it's kind of 1241 00:41:28,470 --> 00:41:25,599 nutty to 1242 00:41:29,910 --> 00:41:28,480 think that it didn't yeah and but 1243 00:41:30,950 --> 00:41:29,920 there's you know there's one thing about 1244 00:41:33,990 --> 00:41:30,960 the apollo 1245 00:41:37,109 --> 00:41:34,000 program that i do believe 1246 00:41:39,030 --> 00:41:37,119 is that there's there's a lot that i 1247 00:41:42,630 --> 00:41:39,040 believe they did find 1248 00:41:45,990 --> 00:41:42,640 that just hasn't been disclosed well the 1249 00:41:48,150 --> 00:41:46,000 the astronauts uh have said that um 1250 00:41:50,309 --> 00:41:48,160 uh you know that that they were followed 1251 00:41:53,190 --> 00:41:50,319 by you know objects all the way 1252 00:41:54,790 --> 00:41:53,200 um you know from earth to the moon um 1253 00:41:56,069 --> 00:41:54,800 you know they weren't flying saucers but 1254 00:41:57,750 --> 00:41:56,079 they were you know 1255 00:42:00,069 --> 00:41:57,760 i know at least in a couple of them the 1256 00:42:01,990 --> 00:42:00,079 astronauts would just kind of routinely 1257 00:42:03,990 --> 00:42:02,000 say you know we see something it's been 1258 00:42:05,670 --> 00:42:04,000 trailing us uh you know since 1259 00:42:07,829 --> 00:42:05,680 you know we left earth orbit or whatever 1260 00:42:09,589 --> 00:42:07,839 and and yeah that's really kind of uh 1261 00:42:10,710 --> 00:42:09,599 against the laws of physics unless the 1262 00:42:13,510 --> 00:42:10,720 thing has its own kind of 1263 00:42:14,790 --> 00:42:13,520 propulsion um you know why how would it 1264 00:42:17,030 --> 00:42:14,800 be following the um 1265 00:42:19,349 --> 00:42:17,040 you know the apollo uh capsule you know 1266 00:42:20,470 --> 00:42:19,359 so and and there are times and even if 1267 00:42:23,109 --> 00:42:20,480 there are times during 1268 00:42:24,390 --> 00:42:23,119 uh then when the astronauts would go to 1269 00:42:26,309 --> 00:42:24,400 a special channel 1270 00:42:27,990 --> 00:42:26,319 and um for the most part all the 1271 00:42:29,430 --> 00:42:28,000 communications were a public you know 1272 00:42:30,069 --> 00:42:29,440 people anyone could listen to them but 1273 00:42:33,510 --> 00:42:30,079 they 1274 00:42:36,069 --> 00:42:33,520 have 1275 00:42:38,069 --> 00:42:36,079 let's say confidential uh conversation 1276 00:42:39,109 --> 00:42:38,079 and the international space station does 1277 00:42:40,950 --> 00:42:39,119 the same thing they go to 1278 00:42:42,710 --> 00:42:40,960 you know some kind of channel a 1279 00:42:44,710 --> 00:42:42,720 different channel and they have a 1280 00:42:45,990 --> 00:42:44,720 private conversation you know so you 1281 00:42:47,910 --> 00:42:46,000 think well 1282 00:42:49,349 --> 00:42:47,920 what are they talking about you know i 1283 00:42:50,870 --> 00:42:49,359 mean 1284 00:42:53,030 --> 00:42:50,880 what are they talking about what else 1285 00:42:57,109 --> 00:42:53,040 could they be talking about 1286 00:42:58,710 --> 00:42:57,119 you know well you you know the earlier 1287 00:43:02,230 --> 00:42:58,720 flights uh 1288 00:43:05,190 --> 00:43:02,240 especially the apollo 8 flight that 1289 00:43:06,790 --> 00:43:05,200 orbited the moon uh so they you know 1290 00:43:09,510 --> 00:43:06,800 they could go to the dark side 1291 00:43:11,510 --> 00:43:09,520 around and judge to wear it what kind of 1292 00:43:14,950 --> 00:43:11,520 uh 1293 00:43:18,470 --> 00:43:16,790 propulsion they would need to get back 1294 00:43:20,550 --> 00:43:18,480 and such but 1295 00:43:24,630 --> 00:43:20,560 there there was a lot to that one too i 1296 00:43:26,630 --> 00:43:24,640 mean frank borman has had kind of been 1297 00:43:28,069 --> 00:43:26,640 he's kind of been quiet about that all 1298 00:43:30,710 --> 00:43:28,079 these years 1299 00:43:32,550 --> 00:43:30,720 about some of the things that occurred 1300 00:43:35,349 --> 00:43:32,560 during that mission 1301 00:43:36,150 --> 00:43:35,359 um and that's what kind of interests me 1302 00:43:39,589 --> 00:43:36,160 now with 1303 00:43:42,630 --> 00:43:39,599 the chinese the chinese uh 1304 00:43:45,829 --> 00:43:42,640 visiting now on the dark side 1305 00:43:49,190 --> 00:43:45,839 and what is there right um 1306 00:43:51,910 --> 00:43:49,200 you know it's like it's it's 1307 00:43:52,309 --> 00:43:51,920 it's basically the side we never see you 1308 00:43:54,710 --> 00:43:52,319 know 1309 00:43:56,150 --> 00:43:54,720 i mean because the the the the moon 1310 00:43:58,309 --> 00:43:56,160 revolves as 1311 00:44:00,309 --> 00:43:58,319 the earth revolves but the the strain 1312 00:44:00,950 --> 00:44:00,319 the you know unusual thing let's say is 1313 00:44:03,670 --> 00:44:00,960 that 1314 00:44:06,230 --> 00:44:03,680 you know we revolve at the same speed so 1315 00:44:08,870 --> 00:44:06,240 one face is always pointing towards us 1316 00:44:10,390 --> 00:44:08,880 right right so but that other side you 1317 00:44:11,190 --> 00:44:10,400 know it isn't in the dark all the time 1318 00:44:13,349 --> 00:44:11,200 it's just like 1319 00:44:15,750 --> 00:44:13,359 we can't see it when it's in the light 1320 00:44:16,630 --> 00:44:15,760 so but you know we've run around there 1321 00:44:18,870 --> 00:44:16,640 we've 1322 00:44:19,829 --> 00:44:18,880 you know a lot of the all the apollo 1323 00:44:22,950 --> 00:44:19,839 missions you know 1324 00:44:24,390 --> 00:44:22,960 went in orbit around the moon um and now 1325 00:44:25,990 --> 00:44:24,400 this chinese you know thing 1326 00:44:28,069 --> 00:44:26,000 i think it's an interesting place to 1327 00:44:29,190 --> 00:44:28,079 land a space capital say the truth or a 1328 00:44:31,750 --> 00:44:29,200 lunar rover i 1329 00:44:33,510 --> 00:44:31,760 you know i i'll give them that much um i 1330 00:44:35,109 --> 00:44:33,520 hate to say it but i think that 1331 00:44:39,670 --> 00:44:35,119 you know that there's going to be well 1332 00:44:45,829 --> 00:44:43,109 wow um that that uh 1333 00:44:46,309 --> 00:44:45,839 um you know who you know who knows what 1334 00:44:48,069 --> 00:44:46,319 could be 1335 00:44:49,430 --> 00:44:48,079 uh over there but this we've had 1336 00:44:51,510 --> 00:44:49,440 satellites you know 1337 00:44:53,030 --> 00:44:51,520 revolving around the moon and all of the 1338 00:44:55,829 --> 00:44:53,040 moon really has been 1339 00:44:58,630 --> 00:44:55,839 um photographed and and and kind of 1340 00:45:00,710 --> 00:44:58,640 documented and documented and mapped 1341 00:45:02,630 --> 00:45:00,720 um but i i was going to say i hate to 1342 00:45:04,790 --> 00:45:02,640 say but i think the chinese and 1343 00:45:06,150 --> 00:45:04,800 if if the us doesn't get their acting 1344 00:45:08,630 --> 00:45:06,160 gear and if nasa 1345 00:45:10,390 --> 00:45:08,640 yeah nasa is just you know kind of this 1346 00:45:11,829 --> 00:45:10,400 this semi-government agency that you 1347 00:45:13,589 --> 00:45:11,839 know sucks a lot of money and you know 1348 00:45:14,950 --> 00:45:13,599 what have we done what have we done in 1349 00:45:15,670 --> 00:45:14,960 the world since the space shuttle what 1350 00:45:16,950 --> 00:45:15,680 have we done 1351 00:45:17,910 --> 00:45:16,960 it's going to be the chinese who are 1352 00:45:19,030 --> 00:45:17,920 going to you know i was talking about 1353 00:45:20,870 --> 00:45:19,040 going to mars they're probably going to 1354 00:45:23,109 --> 00:45:20,880 be the first people on mars 1355 00:45:25,270 --> 00:45:23,119 that may very well be because you're 1356 00:45:26,390 --> 00:45:25,280 going to have to set up a station of 1357 00:45:28,950 --> 00:45:26,400 some type 1358 00:45:29,910 --> 00:45:28,960 on on the moon to be able to get to mars 1359 00:45:31,750 --> 00:45:29,920 i believe 1360 00:45:33,190 --> 00:45:31,760 well that's yeah that's one of the plans 1361 00:45:35,589 --> 00:45:33,200 you know and it's it's 1362 00:45:37,109 --> 00:45:35,599 it's a little bit easier to lift a large 1363 00:45:39,270 --> 00:45:37,119 payload off of the moon 1364 00:45:40,950 --> 00:45:39,280 to go to the mars than it does for the 1365 00:45:42,550 --> 00:45:40,960 united states so the idea is like go 1366 00:45:44,390 --> 00:45:42,560 back to the moon build up a large 1367 00:45:45,270 --> 00:45:44,400 payload rocket and so on and then launch 1368 00:45:47,589 --> 00:45:45,280 from there 1369 00:45:48,550 --> 00:45:47,599 to go to mars but my question is is we 1370 00:45:50,630 --> 00:45:48,560 were on the moon 1371 00:45:52,710 --> 00:45:50,640 you know we landed on the moon in 1969 1372 00:45:54,950 --> 00:45:52,720 and then nixon because you know 1373 00:45:57,190 --> 00:45:54,960 because he was you know who knows what 1374 00:45:58,390 --> 00:45:57,200 he cut off all funding for all apollo 1375 00:46:00,470 --> 00:45:58,400 flights afterwards 1376 00:46:02,550 --> 00:46:00,480 you know we were supposed to suppose 1377 00:46:04,470 --> 00:46:02,560 like apollo 22 23 and 1378 00:46:05,910 --> 00:46:04,480 the plan was just to keep on going there 1379 00:46:07,670 --> 00:46:05,920 to set up a base 1380 00:46:10,230 --> 00:46:07,680 but you know they they cut the funding 1381 00:46:11,829 --> 00:46:10,240 just at the absolutely wrong time now we 1382 00:46:12,950 --> 00:46:11,839 have to go through all this to get back 1383 00:46:14,790 --> 00:46:12,960 to the moon 1384 00:46:17,510 --> 00:46:14,800 and then from the moon go to mars you 1385 00:46:20,950 --> 00:46:17,520 know there's a lot of moving parts there 1386 00:46:24,150 --> 00:46:20,960 well you know i i'm of the theory and 1387 00:46:24,790 --> 00:46:24,160 i've only only you know had this theory 1388 00:46:27,349 --> 00:46:24,800 for 1389 00:46:28,550 --> 00:46:27,359 the past several years that i believe 1390 00:46:33,349 --> 00:46:28,560 that 1391 00:46:36,309 --> 00:46:33,359 these space um 1392 00:46:37,589 --> 00:46:36,319 agency worldwide are just working 1393 00:46:40,069 --> 00:46:37,599 together now 1394 00:46:41,109 --> 00:46:40,079 i mean for everything and i'm just not 1395 00:46:43,510 --> 00:46:41,119 saying 1396 00:46:44,550 --> 00:46:43,520 the fact that you know we spent time on 1397 00:46:46,870 --> 00:46:44,560 the uh 1398 00:46:48,870 --> 00:46:46,880 the sky lab and in the in the 1399 00:46:49,829 --> 00:46:48,880 international space station together 1400 00:46:53,670 --> 00:46:49,839 here and there 1401 00:46:55,750 --> 00:46:53,680 i i think there's been a conglomeration 1402 00:46:57,670 --> 00:46:55,760 for a lot of years 1403 00:46:58,870 --> 00:46:57,680 and i believe a lot of that started 1404 00:47:02,150 --> 00:46:58,880 right after 1405 00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:02,160 the apollo missions um 1406 00:47:05,589 --> 00:47:05,200 i think there's something to that yeah 1407 00:47:08,630 --> 00:47:05,599 well 1408 00:47:11,349 --> 00:47:08,640 you know uh i i don't know i 1409 00:47:12,550 --> 00:47:11,359 i just know that the the whole idea is 1410 00:47:14,390 --> 00:47:12,560 that 1411 00:47:16,150 --> 00:47:14,400 it takes a lot of time it takes a lot of 1412 00:47:16,630 --> 00:47:16,160 money takes a lot of technology and so 1413 00:47:18,710 --> 00:47:16,640 on 1414 00:47:20,549 --> 00:47:18,720 you know like even just to put the space 1415 00:47:24,710 --> 00:47:20,559 shuttle up okay 1416 00:47:26,950 --> 00:47:24,720 and what i always think is that um 1417 00:47:28,470 --> 00:47:26,960 you know if if we really had you know 1418 00:47:30,549 --> 00:47:28,480 not to disagree with you but if 1419 00:47:32,630 --> 00:47:30,559 if we really had some kind of uh you 1420 00:47:34,630 --> 00:47:32,640 know technology either from 1421 00:47:35,670 --> 00:47:34,640 you know this conglomeration of space 1422 00:47:36,710 --> 00:47:35,680 programs or left 1423 00:47:38,630 --> 00:47:36,720 you know or something that's been 1424 00:47:40,069 --> 00:47:38,640 re-engineered from a ufo or whatever 1425 00:47:41,270 --> 00:47:40,079 would we have really spent those 1426 00:47:43,510 --> 00:47:41,280 billions of dollars 1427 00:47:44,790 --> 00:47:43,520 over like 25 years to launch this dump 1428 00:47:46,549 --> 00:47:44,800 truck which was the space shuttle 1429 00:47:48,309 --> 00:47:46,559 basically what it was you're launching a 1430 00:47:51,589 --> 00:47:48,319 dump truck into orbit 1431 00:47:53,750 --> 00:47:51,599 you know wouldn't we be flying around 1432 00:47:55,510 --> 00:47:53,760 the solar system if we had the kind of 1433 00:47:56,470 --> 00:47:55,520 technology that some people say well you 1434 00:48:03,270 --> 00:47:56,480 would think 1435 00:48:03,990 --> 00:48:03,280 the space shuttle what you know when you 1436 00:48:06,230 --> 00:48:04,000 look at it 1437 00:48:08,069 --> 00:48:06,240 as a whole what did it really accomplish 1438 00:48:11,670 --> 00:48:08,079 other than sending payloads 1439 00:48:13,190 --> 00:48:11,680 to the uh well that was it 1440 00:48:14,710 --> 00:48:13,200 that's all it did i mean it it it 1441 00:48:16,390 --> 00:48:14,720 brought payloads that's what i mean 1442 00:48:19,030 --> 00:48:16,400 it was a dump truck in space you know 1443 00:48:20,549 --> 00:48:19,040 yeah did a lot of military missions you 1444 00:48:22,150 --> 00:48:20,559 know there was a lot of those were 1445 00:48:23,829 --> 00:48:22,160 secret military missions where the 1446 00:48:26,230 --> 00:48:23,839 military would literally lease 1447 00:48:27,670 --> 00:48:26,240 the space shuttle and launch you know 1448 00:48:29,030 --> 00:48:27,680 who knows what you know 1449 00:48:31,349 --> 00:48:29,040 and one of the other things we talk 1450 00:48:33,109 --> 00:48:31,359 about in the book is that 1451 00:48:35,910 --> 00:48:33,119 the military now has this thing called 1452 00:48:38,870 --> 00:48:35,920 the x-37b 1453 00:48:40,549 --> 00:48:38,880 and um and it looks like a miniature 1454 00:48:41,349 --> 00:48:40,559 space shuttle it looks like a space 1455 00:48:45,349 --> 00:48:41,359 shuttle 1456 00:48:47,109 --> 00:48:45,359 25 size okay quarter size now this thing 1457 00:48:48,870 --> 00:48:47,119 is launched out of vandenberg air force 1458 00:48:52,309 --> 00:48:48,880 base out in california 1459 00:48:54,230 --> 00:48:52,319 it just broke the record for the longest 1460 00:48:55,829 --> 00:48:54,240 spacecraft in flight it was actually in 1461 00:48:58,870 --> 00:48:55,839 orbit for a year 1462 00:49:00,870 --> 00:48:58,880 it's it's robotic but 1463 00:49:02,069 --> 00:49:00,880 one of our co-hosts commander cobra who 1464 00:49:03,910 --> 00:49:02,079 is someone who works 1465 00:49:05,670 --> 00:49:03,920 it was in the military and works closely 1466 00:49:08,069 --> 00:49:05,680 still with the military he 1467 00:49:08,870 --> 00:49:08,079 swears that you know in the you know in 1468 00:49:10,390 --> 00:49:08,880 about 1469 00:49:12,710 --> 00:49:10,400 several hours you could actually turn 1470 00:49:15,430 --> 00:49:12,720 this thing into a manned spacecraft 1471 00:49:15,990 --> 00:49:15,440 and no one really knows what it does now 1472 00:49:17,990 --> 00:49:16,000 the theory 1473 00:49:20,069 --> 00:49:18,000 is is that this thing can actually go up 1474 00:49:22,390 --> 00:49:20,079 there and cozy up to 1475 00:49:24,470 --> 00:49:22,400 let's say adversaries adversaries 1476 00:49:27,510 --> 00:49:24,480 satellites and you know 1477 00:49:29,670 --> 00:49:27,520 steal their information disable them 1478 00:49:30,549 --> 00:49:29,680 you know steal the technology who knows 1479 00:49:32,309 --> 00:49:30,559 you know that's 1480 00:49:33,829 --> 00:49:32,319 but it has to be something along those 1481 00:49:36,150 --> 00:49:33,839 lines the military says that they're 1482 00:49:38,150 --> 00:49:36,160 doing atmospheric research 1483 00:49:40,069 --> 00:49:38,160 which is not even a good spin story you 1484 00:49:41,910 --> 00:49:40,079 know but it's doing something now that's 1485 00:49:43,510 --> 00:49:41,920 that's really kind of cool technology 1486 00:49:45,670 --> 00:49:43,520 when you know when you think about it 1487 00:49:47,270 --> 00:49:45,680 right and no one can touch that no one 1488 00:49:48,630 --> 00:49:47,280 can the chinese can put a 1489 00:49:51,190 --> 00:49:48,640 something on the backside of the mood 1490 00:49:54,230 --> 00:49:51,200 but this thing is up there all the time 1491 00:49:54,630 --> 00:49:54,240 all the time uh doing who knows what you 1492 00:49:57,990 --> 00:49:54,640 know 1493 00:49:59,109 --> 00:49:58,000 that is the space force 1494 00:50:00,549 --> 00:49:59,119 if you know what i mean you know this 1495 00:50:02,230 --> 00:50:00,559 stuff is going on you know you don't 1496 00:50:04,150 --> 00:50:02,240 really need a space for us we have a 1497 00:50:05,589 --> 00:50:04,160 space force we have u.s space command 1498 00:50:08,309 --> 00:50:05,599 and it's been around for a long long 1499 00:50:09,589 --> 00:50:08,319 time um you know if you want to have a 1500 00:50:11,349 --> 00:50:09,599 real cool space for us 1501 00:50:12,710 --> 00:50:11,359 put money into that because these people 1502 00:50:15,589 --> 00:50:12,720 they're already there you don't have to 1503 00:50:19,109 --> 00:50:15,599 start from square one 1504 00:50:20,790 --> 00:50:19,119 well you know i i think um 1505 00:50:22,790 --> 00:50:20,800 and and i don't know how how much of 1506 00:50:25,030 --> 00:50:22,800 this you agree with with 1507 00:50:26,950 --> 00:50:25,040 the fact that a lot of corporations and 1508 00:50:29,829 --> 00:50:26,960 private money is going in 1509 00:50:31,190 --> 00:50:29,839 to space exploration you know i'm wary 1510 00:50:34,950 --> 00:50:31,200 of that 1511 00:50:38,230 --> 00:50:34,960 for the most part i i don't know if 1512 00:50:39,670 --> 00:50:38,240 it's more of an exploration or if 1513 00:50:43,750 --> 00:50:39,680 there's a monetary 1514 00:50:45,750 --> 00:50:43,760 more of a monetary reason behind it 1515 00:50:47,270 --> 00:50:45,760 um you know they've been talking for 1516 00:50:50,470 --> 00:50:47,280 years about mining 1517 00:50:52,630 --> 00:50:50,480 asteroids and such so right i don't know 1518 00:50:54,390 --> 00:50:52,640 it's always a monetary thing yeah you 1519 00:50:55,349 --> 00:50:54,400 know you would think well private 1520 00:50:57,430 --> 00:50:55,359 industry 1521 00:50:58,710 --> 00:50:57,440 that's the only reason they would do it 1522 00:51:01,589 --> 00:50:58,720 and and at some point 1523 00:51:01,990 --> 00:51:01,599 i think they will start mining asteroids 1524 00:51:03,670 --> 00:51:02,000 um 1525 00:51:05,589 --> 00:51:03,680 you know there's some asteroids that are 1526 00:51:08,069 --> 00:51:05,599 just you know completely 1527 00:51:10,069 --> 00:51:08,079 comprised of like nickel you know and 1528 00:51:13,510 --> 00:51:10,079 all these kind of exotic things but 1529 00:51:17,030 --> 00:51:13,520 um you know someone said too is um that 1530 00:51:19,910 --> 00:51:17,040 um that they suspect some asteroids 1531 00:51:21,430 --> 00:51:19,920 are may have lots of diamonds in them 1532 00:51:22,390 --> 00:51:21,440 and in fact there's a star out there 1533 00:51:24,710 --> 00:51:22,400 that people think 1534 00:51:26,470 --> 00:51:24,720 that you know astrophysicists think is 1535 00:51:28,630 --> 00:51:26,480 is made of diamond 1536 00:51:30,390 --> 00:51:28,640 and or a planet going around the star 1537 00:51:32,069 --> 00:51:30,400 but the thing is is let's say that you 1538 00:51:33,750 --> 00:51:32,079 found an asteroid that was you know had 1539 00:51:35,270 --> 00:51:33,760 that was just full of diamonds 1540 00:51:37,589 --> 00:51:35,280 and you stop mining them bring them back 1541 00:51:39,589 --> 00:51:37,599 to earth well that's going to make 1542 00:51:41,589 --> 00:51:39,599 you know the rarity of diamonds on a 1543 00:51:43,349 --> 00:51:41,599 whole not be as rare anymore 1544 00:51:45,109 --> 00:51:43,359 exactly what i mean so they won't be you 1545 00:51:46,790 --> 00:51:45,119 know so it's like wow 1546 00:51:48,470 --> 00:51:46,800 you know how do you handle that you know 1547 00:51:51,190 --> 00:51:48,480 well i mean i guess you could use it for 1548 00:51:53,430 --> 00:51:51,200 industrial use but yeah i don't know 1549 00:51:54,309 --> 00:51:53,440 that seems yeah i agree with you i mean 1550 00:51:57,589 --> 00:51:54,319 that's like any 1551 00:51:59,109 --> 00:51:57,599 any rare metal or gemstone 1552 00:52:00,630 --> 00:51:59,119 they just start finding a bunch of them 1553 00:52:03,030 --> 00:52:00,640 they're just going to tank the market 1554 00:52:04,390 --> 00:52:03,040 right oh yeah yeah exactly you know so 1555 00:52:05,990 --> 00:52:04,400 you gotta be quick careful with your 1556 00:52:08,150 --> 00:52:06,000 mind up there but i guess if you could 1557 00:52:09,109 --> 00:52:08,160 corral an asteroid that was made of you 1558 00:52:11,109 --> 00:52:09,119 know different kinds of 1559 00:52:12,630 --> 00:52:11,119 very strong iron and nickel and these 1560 00:52:15,109 --> 00:52:12,640 things that you know a lot of them go 1561 00:52:16,870 --> 00:52:15,119 into our smartphones and stuff like that 1562 00:52:18,790 --> 00:52:16,880 then there's your monetary incentive 1563 00:52:22,150 --> 00:52:18,800 right now yeah 1564 00:52:25,829 --> 00:52:22,160 yeah the um 1565 00:52:29,030 --> 00:52:25,839 what are your thoughts on our technology 1566 00:52:29,910 --> 00:52:29,040 in other words it does seem that ever 1567 00:52:33,270 --> 00:52:29,920 since 1568 00:52:37,829 --> 00:52:33,280 when i'll say roswell and uh 1569 00:52:41,030 --> 00:52:37,839 that we've our technology just seems to 1570 00:52:42,630 --> 00:52:41,040 quadruple every couple of years is it 1571 00:52:43,750 --> 00:52:42,640 something that we're getting from 1572 00:52:46,390 --> 00:52:43,760 somewhere else 1573 00:52:47,829 --> 00:52:46,400 or is it just that we're getting smarter 1574 00:52:51,349 --> 00:52:47,839 i think we're getting smarter 1575 00:52:53,670 --> 00:52:51,359 you know um i i don't think um 1576 00:52:54,950 --> 00:52:53,680 you know this is probably uh you know a 1577 00:52:56,150 --> 00:52:54,960 subject for another show but 1578 00:52:58,470 --> 00:52:56,160 i don't think anything happened to 1579 00:53:00,470 --> 00:52:58,480 roswell other than what you know 1580 00:53:01,829 --> 00:53:00,480 the the military come out and finally 1581 00:53:02,870 --> 00:53:01,839 said it was is one of these secret 1582 00:53:04,710 --> 00:53:02,880 balloons 1583 00:53:06,069 --> 00:53:04,720 and you know that's what the debris was 1584 00:53:07,430 --> 00:53:06,079 and so on and so forth 1585 00:53:08,950 --> 00:53:07,440 and and again i don't think that we 1586 00:53:10,390 --> 00:53:08,960 would have this reverse engineered 1587 00:53:12,150 --> 00:53:10,400 technology because 1588 00:53:14,069 --> 00:53:12,160 i don't see it around i i know we've all 1589 00:53:15,910 --> 00:53:14,079 gotten we've gotten smarter but 1590 00:53:17,750 --> 00:53:15,920 once again if you had we're able to 1591 00:53:19,589 --> 00:53:17,760 reverse engineer a ufo you know why 1592 00:53:21,030 --> 00:53:19,599 don't we have anti-gravity why don't we 1593 00:53:21,990 --> 00:53:21,040 have you know these kind of weird 1594 00:53:23,910 --> 00:53:22,000 propulsion 1595 00:53:25,349 --> 00:53:23,920 systems why other why are we launching 1596 00:53:26,549 --> 00:53:25,359 the dump truck into space 1597 00:53:28,710 --> 00:53:26,559 you know i don't think you would go 1598 00:53:30,230 --> 00:53:28,720 through all that just to keep hidden 1599 00:53:33,270 --> 00:53:30,240 that we have this kind of 1600 00:53:35,829 --> 00:53:33,280 you know ufo technology um 1601 00:53:38,069 --> 00:53:35,839 but you know and it also in my mind too 1602 00:53:40,230 --> 00:53:38,079 and it sounds strange because 1603 00:53:41,510 --> 00:53:40,240 you know it's it's all big brother slash 1604 00:53:43,349 --> 00:53:41,520 big company but you know 1605 00:53:45,270 --> 00:53:43,359 it's it's kind of dissing the people who 1606 00:53:47,430 --> 00:53:45,280 invented this stuff you know these [\h__\h] 1607 00:53:49,589 --> 00:53:47,440 it's human beings who invented you know 1608 00:53:51,510 --> 00:53:49,599 the semiconductors who invented 1609 00:53:53,589 --> 00:53:51,520 you know the rockets that put us on the 1610 00:53:54,309 --> 00:53:53,599 moon and you know these are humans doing 1611 00:53:56,630 --> 00:53:54,319 this 1612 00:53:58,150 --> 00:53:56,640 and and you know when they should give 1613 00:54:00,710 --> 00:53:58,160 they give them some credit 1614 00:54:01,990 --> 00:54:00,720 for doing it you know and yet some 1615 00:54:02,950 --> 00:54:02,000 people want to say well you know it's 1616 00:54:05,910 --> 00:54:02,960 really gonna 1617 00:54:06,230 --> 00:54:05,920 re-engineer ufo technology well you know 1618 00:54:10,630 --> 00:54:06,240 if 1619 00:54:12,309 --> 00:54:10,640 moon in so long why aren't we there 1620 00:54:14,470 --> 00:54:12,319 why aren't you and i flying back and 1621 00:54:17,190 --> 00:54:14,480 forth every day to the moon exactly 1622 00:54:17,990 --> 00:54:17,200 you know we're not well you know and if 1623 00:54:22,150 --> 00:54:18,000 the one 1624 00:54:25,750 --> 00:54:22,160 fascinates me more than anything is 1625 00:54:29,670 --> 00:54:25,760 you look at the computers or computer 1626 00:54:31,910 --> 00:54:29,680 that was used in the apollo landing 1627 00:54:32,950 --> 00:54:31,920 right as compared to what we've got 1628 00:54:36,630 --> 00:54:32,960 nowadays 1629 00:54:38,789 --> 00:54:36,640 right and uh you when you 1630 00:54:40,390 --> 00:54:38,799 sit there and look at it you wonder how 1631 00:54:40,950 --> 00:54:40,400 in the hell did they ever get there and 1632 00:54:44,710 --> 00:54:40,960 back 1633 00:54:46,789 --> 00:54:44,720 yep there's more computing power in a um 1634 00:54:49,349 --> 00:54:46,799 in a calculator than there was in the 1635 00:54:51,109 --> 00:54:49,359 apollo the first apollo lander you know 1636 00:54:52,870 --> 00:54:51,119 how did they do it how you're right how 1637 00:54:55,109 --> 00:54:52,880 did they do it but they did it 1638 00:54:57,430 --> 00:54:55,119 they did it you know and you know the 1639 00:54:59,750 --> 00:54:57,440 computer itself was so 1640 00:55:01,589 --> 00:54:59,760 i don't know so fundamental i mean they 1641 00:55:04,950 --> 00:55:01,599 were pushing buttons 1642 00:55:09,109 --> 00:55:04,960 right yeah you know to activate 1643 00:55:12,230 --> 00:55:09,119 uh actuators or capacitors and it was uh 1644 00:55:14,069 --> 00:55:12,240 it was so simple but uh 1645 00:55:15,430 --> 00:55:14,079 i don't know it it but it is a 1646 00:55:18,710 --> 00:55:15,440 fascinating 1647 00:55:20,390 --> 00:55:18,720 aspect to that whole program 1648 00:55:22,789 --> 00:55:20,400 i guess it took a lot of luck too i 1649 00:55:25,270 --> 00:55:22,799 guess but it was uh 1650 00:55:27,589 --> 00:55:25,280 it you know the whole power story has 1651 00:55:30,630 --> 00:55:27,599 always fascinated me and uh 1652 00:55:31,190 --> 00:55:30,640 i just wondered why how did they ever do 1653 00:55:33,510 --> 00:55:31,200 it 1654 00:55:34,470 --> 00:55:33,520 but you're right why haven't we gone 1655 00:55:37,270 --> 00:55:34,480 back 1656 00:55:39,190 --> 00:55:37,280 why is the money had not been spent you 1657 00:55:41,750 --> 00:55:39,200 know for years they keep talking about 1658 00:55:42,470 --> 00:55:41,760 this helium-3 that's loaded on the moon 1659 00:55:44,470 --> 00:55:42,480 for 1660 00:55:46,789 --> 00:55:44,480 when you know they could get back get 1661 00:55:50,069 --> 00:55:46,799 there and mine this helium-3 1662 00:55:53,109 --> 00:55:50,079 and for energy like 1663 00:55:54,309 --> 00:55:53,119 why has there been any attempt to do 1664 00:55:56,309 --> 00:55:54,319 that 1665 00:55:57,670 --> 00:55:56,319 i think it's because nasa basically you 1666 00:56:00,789 --> 00:55:57,680 know as uh 1667 00:56:02,789 --> 00:56:00,799 you know is is has been our only way to 1668 00:56:05,190 --> 00:56:02,799 for this country to get into space now 1669 00:56:08,710 --> 00:56:05,200 that's true now you can see you know 1670 00:56:10,549 --> 00:56:08,720 uh elon musk and those guys you know are 1671 00:56:12,390 --> 00:56:10,559 flying you know supply missions to the 1672 00:56:14,150 --> 00:56:12,400 uh international space station and then 1673 00:56:15,109 --> 00:56:14,160 the guy who runs virgin airlines he's 1674 00:56:17,270 --> 00:56:15,119 going to start 1675 00:56:18,870 --> 00:56:17,280 you know booking passage for people who 1676 00:56:20,150 --> 00:56:18,880 go up in sub-orbit and stuff like that 1677 00:56:22,630 --> 00:56:20,160 so it is coming but it's 1678 00:56:24,309 --> 00:56:22,640 it's very slow you know to to work into 1679 00:56:26,950 --> 00:56:24,319 it for the private enterprise to get in 1680 00:56:28,789 --> 00:56:26,960 there because it costs a lot of money 1681 00:56:30,069 --> 00:56:28,799 you know but but once it happens long 1682 00:56:32,230 --> 00:56:30,079 once it starts 1683 00:56:33,670 --> 00:56:32,240 then there'll be no way of stopping it 1684 00:56:36,150 --> 00:56:33,680 you know that's true 1685 00:56:39,030 --> 00:56:36,160 you know and and and once someone starts 1686 00:56:40,870 --> 00:56:39,040 really seeing dollar signs 1687 00:56:42,549 --> 00:56:40,880 that's when you know then then it will 1688 00:56:43,510 --> 00:56:42,559 be like the jetsons you know then it 1689 00:56:45,349 --> 00:56:43,520 will be 1690 00:56:46,870 --> 00:56:45,359 uh you know that common place to go to 1691 00:56:47,829 --> 00:56:46,880 orbit to go to the moon i still think 1692 00:56:49,910 --> 00:56:47,839 it's a fire 1693 00:56:51,270 --> 00:56:49,920 i think it's far off and and i hate to 1694 00:56:52,470 --> 00:56:51,280 say this but i don't think the americans 1695 00:56:54,069 --> 00:56:52,480 are going to lead the charge i think 1696 00:56:56,069 --> 00:56:54,079 it's going to be the chinese 1697 00:56:58,870 --> 00:56:56,079 yeah i think the chinese are really 1698 00:56:59,349 --> 00:56:58,880 stepping it up it just it does seem that 1699 00:57:00,950 --> 00:56:59,359 way 1700 00:57:02,870 --> 00:57:00,960 yep they get a lot of money they get a 1701 00:57:03,829 --> 00:57:02,880 lot of technology a lot of their 1702 00:57:05,910 --> 00:57:03,839 scientists and 1703 00:57:07,190 --> 00:57:05,920 and professionals are actually educated 1704 00:57:09,430 --> 00:57:07,200 in this country 1705 00:57:11,510 --> 00:57:09,440 and um and then they go back to china 1706 00:57:12,230 --> 00:57:11,520 and you know that's just the way it is 1707 00:57:15,589 --> 00:57:12,240 but 1708 00:57:18,870 --> 00:57:17,190 the chinese uh you know they're they're 1709 00:57:20,950 --> 00:57:18,880 the ultimate big brother government 1710 00:57:21,910 --> 00:57:20,960 i mean they the ultimate totalitarian 1711 00:57:23,349 --> 00:57:21,920 government 1712 00:57:24,549 --> 00:57:23,359 they they're the largest country in the 1713 00:57:26,549 --> 00:57:24,559 world they're going to be one of the 1714 00:57:27,910 --> 00:57:26,559 largest military powers in the next 30 1715 00:57:31,349 --> 00:57:27,920 to 40 years if not 1716 00:57:34,630 --> 00:57:31,359 sooner you know it's it's it's 1717 00:57:37,109 --> 00:57:34,640 i think i think that the days you know 1718 00:57:38,549 --> 00:57:37,119 the coming the coming century or the 1719 00:57:40,069 --> 00:57:38,559 rest of the century is not going to be 1720 00:57:41,589 --> 00:57:40,079 one for like democracy 1721 00:57:43,270 --> 00:57:41,599 and freedom and freedom of speech and 1722 00:57:44,870 --> 00:57:43,280 things i think it's gonna be i think 1723 00:57:46,150 --> 00:57:44,880 it's gonna be rough 80 years to tell you 1724 00:57:47,270 --> 00:57:46,160 the truth because i think the chinese 1725 00:57:48,950 --> 00:57:47,280 are going to dominate and they're not 1726 00:57:51,829 --> 00:57:48,960 going to suddenly become 1727 00:57:52,470 --> 00:57:51,839 uh you know a democracy that's for sure 1728 00:57:54,230 --> 00:57:52,480 well 1729 00:57:57,589 --> 00:57:54,240 i'm afraid you're probably right because 1730 00:57:59,910 --> 00:57:57,599 uh it it seems like um 1731 00:58:01,990 --> 00:57:59,920 you know our time has passed for the 1732 00:58:05,430 --> 00:58:02,000 most part and uh 1733 00:58:07,430 --> 00:58:05,440 i i you know i'm hoping that maybe our 1734 00:58:09,430 --> 00:58:07,440 these entrepreneurs can kind of 1735 00:58:10,630 --> 00:58:09,440 push us back ahead and get us back on 1736 00:58:12,950 --> 00:58:10,640 track but 1737 00:58:13,829 --> 00:58:12,960

is it isn't gone yet but 1741 00:58:21,990 --> 00:58:19,760 you know look what happened to the 1742 00:58:23,990 --> 00:58:22,000 british empire to the roman empire to 1743 00:58:26,950 -->
