related legislation like representative 121 00:05:07,189 --> 00:05:04,160 gallego and senator gillibrand 122 00:05:10,070 --> 00:05:07,199 and secondly some former pentagon 123 00:05:12,629 --> 00:05:10,080 officials who had worked on this issue 124 00:05:14,550 --> 00:05:12,639 uh chris mellon and lou elizondo have 125 00:05:18,070 --> 00:05:14,560 said that this is an effort for the 126 00:05:19,909 --> 00:05:18,080 pentagon to be less transparent on uaps 127 00:05:21,189 --> 00:05:19,919 and i was just wondering if you had any 128 00:05:23,990 --> 00:05:21,199 response 129 00:05:25,749 --> 00:05:24,000 on the first one um i can't i can't 130 00:05:28,230 --> 00:05:25,759 speak to pending legislation obviously 131 00:05:30,070 --> 00:05:28,240 i'd refer to those members but uh but we 132 00:05:32,629 --> 00:05:30,080 absolutely kept members of congress 133 00:05:34,629 --> 00:05:32,639 informed uh as we uh 134 00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:34,639 as we fashioned this 135 00:05:39,670 --> 00:05:37,600 this group together and and announced it 136 00:05:41,670 --> 00:05:39,680 um and it is 137 00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:41,680 to your second question it is really 138 00:05:47,590 --> 00:05:44,560 designed to help us better coordinate 139 00:05:50,070 --> 00:05:47,600 the reporting processes um the actual 140 00:05:52,469 --> 00:05:50,080 reports themselves and the analysis of 141 00:05:55,029 --> 00:05:52,479 those reports so that um 142 00:05:56,629 --> 00:05:55,039 rather than uh 143 00:05:59,189 --> 00:05:56,639 getting them sort of piecemeal and ad 144 00:06:01,749 --> 00:05:59,199 hoc as we've been getting them from uh 145 00:06:03,909 --> 00:06:01,759 from the from the services um this is a 146 00:06:04,870 --> 00:06:03,919 way to coordinate the the input so that 147 00:06:06,870 --> 00:06:04,880 we can 148 00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:06,880 there's a common set of parameters for 149 00:06:11,029 --> 00:06:09,280 how to report them and to analyze them 150 00:06:12,070 --> 00:06:11,039 and then to assess what we've got and 151 00:06:13,670 --> 00:06:12,080 not all 152 00:06:15,189 --> 00:06:13,680 uh reports are going to manifest 153 00:06:17,189 --> 00:06:15,199 themselves in something that we consider 154 00:06:19,830 --> 00:06:17,199 a national security threat 155 00:06:21,029 --> 00:06:19,840 so this is a chance for us to to be a 156 00:06:23,029 --> 00:06:21,039 much more 157 00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:23,039 organized in the way we process these 158 00:06:28,790 --> 00:06:26,240 reports um and as we have we will 159 00:06:31,189 --> 00:06:28,800 certainly continue to be as transparent 160 00:06:33,110 --> 00:06:31,199 as we can about uh these phenomena and 161 00:06:34,390 --> 00:06:33,120 uh and and the impact that they may or 162 00:06:36,390 --> 00:06:34,400 may not be having 163 00:06:38,870 --> 00:06:36,400 on our ability to operate is there any 164 00:06:40,390 --> 00:06:38,880 specific commitment to release some data 165 00:06:42,070 --> 00:06:40,400 or information on 166 00:06:44,790 --> 00:06:42,080 these to the public at some point 167 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:44,800 something beyond a briefing to congress 168 00:06:49,350 --> 00:06:46,560 yeah i mean i don't have a specific 169 00:06:50,870 --> 00:06:49,360 report to to announce today that on any 170 00:06:52,790 --> 00:06:50,880 kind of a frequent basis that we would 171 00:06:55,110 --> 00:06:52,800 do but i i can assure you that our 172 00:06:57,990 --> 00:06:55,120 intention is to be as transparent about 173 00:07:00,150 --> 00:06:58,000 uh this phenomena as as we can again try 174 00:07:03,110 --> 00:07:00,160 this understanding that um 175 00:07:04,629 --> 00:07:03,120 uh that uh that there'll be national 176 00:07:06,230 --> 00:07:04,639 security considerations that we have to 177 00:07:08,070 --> 00:07:06,240 keep in mind but we'll be as transparent 178 00:07:09,270 --> 00:07:08,080 as we can but not i don't want to leave 179 00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:09,280 you with the impression that there'll be 180 00:07:14,230 --> 00:07:11,919 sort of a regular drum beat of uh you 181 00:07:15,670 --> 00:07:14,240 know of some kind of report that uh that 182 00:07:18,870 --> 00:07:15,680 gets posted on the website you know 183 00:07:25,189 --> 00:07:22,710 all right man so again we're getting uap 184 00:07:27,029 --> 00:07:25,199 questions asked at pentagon press 185 00:07:29,350 --> 00:07:27,039 briefings this has been happening for 186 00:07:31,909 --> 00:07:29,360 about a year now so yeah while it's uh 187 00:07:34,390 --> 00:07:31,919 exciting it's kind of becoming a new 188 00:07:36,870 --> 00:07:34,400 norm which is really cool and you know 189 00:07:38,790 --> 00:07:36,880 kudos to that journalist um for doing 190 00:07:41,110 --> 00:07:38,800 his homework knowing melon knowing 191 00:07:42,150 --> 00:07:41,120 elizondo bringing up their names i was 192 00:07:44,309 --> 00:07:42,160 told 193 00:07:46,230 --> 00:07:44,319 um we only saw the reporter doing that 194 00:07:48,869 --> 00:07:46,240 clip but when he mentioned the names 195 00:07:52,469 --> 00:07:48,879 melon and elizondo apparently john kirby 196 00:07:54,150 --> 00:07:52,479 had the biggest smirk on his face 197 00:07:55,909 --> 00:07:54,160 apparently that's what i heard from 198 00:07:58,469 --> 00:07:55,919 another reporter that was in the room 199 00:08:01,029 --> 00:07:58,479 that day um the room where it happened 200 00:08:03,510 --> 00:08:01,039 the room went sorry that's my hamilton i 201 00:08:05,749 --> 00:08:03,520 can't imagine i can't imagine elizondo 202 00:08:07,909 --> 00:08:05,759 and melanie are super popular with these 203 00:08:09,430 --> 00:08:07,919 guys that all got forced into doing a 204 00:08:11,510 --> 00:08:09,440 bunch of work maybe they didn't want to 205 00:08:13,110 --> 00:08:11,520 do and having press conferences maybe 206 00:08:15,189 --> 00:08:13,120

238 00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:27,839 toiled over as we speak within uh 239 00:09:32,150 --> 00:09:30,480 congress with this authorization act um 240 00:09:34,230 --> 00:09:32,160 hopefully something will come of it 241 00:09:36,470 --> 00:09:34,240 because from the wording in that 242 00:09:38,710 --> 00:09:36,480 amendment it sounds amazing 243 00:09:41,750 --> 00:09:38,720 um apparently worded by christopher 244 00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:41,760 mellon himself and adopted by gillibrand 245 00:09:46,710 --> 00:09:44,160 many senators are backing her up on this 246 00:09:49,829 --> 00:09:46,720 thing and i know right now it's one of 247 00:09:52,230 --> 00:09:49,839 those ones being argued over in congress 248 00:09:54,150 --> 00:09:52,240 that's going to hold a lot of 249 00:09:56,310 --> 00:09:54,160 intelligence agencies and departments 250 00:09:58,150 --> 00:09:56,320 and military branches accountable for 251 00:09:59,430 --> 00:09:58,160 bringing uap information forward that 252 00:10:01,110 --> 00:09:59,440 they may have 253 00:10:02,150 --> 00:10:01,120 a lot of groups that haven't done so in 254 00:10:03,670 --> 00:10:02,160 the past 255 00:10:05,910 --> 00:10:03,680 kind of gave the 256 00:10:07,910 --> 00:10:05,920 uap task force the cold shoulder when 257 00:10:10,069 --> 00:10:07,920 they asked them for information but she 258 00:10:12,870 --> 00:10:10,079 said no nope you're not getting out of 259 00:10:15,430 --> 00:10:12,880 it easy this time uh but then all of a 260 00:10:18,310 --> 00:10:15,440 sudden out of nowhere right before 261 00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:18,320 thanksgiving the defense department 262 00:10:23,509 --> 00:10:20,880 drops this news um this is the successor 263 00:10:26,470 --> 00:10:23,519 to the uap task force so we kind of knew 264 00:10:29,190 --> 00:10:26,480 it was coming um in so much in so many 265 00:10:32,150 --> 00:10:29,200 words but um not like this and not in 266 00:10:34,310 --> 00:10:32,160 such a vague weird way like why why do 267 00:10:35,269 --> 00:10:34,320 you think they dropped this news right 268 00:10:37,829 --> 00:10:35,279 when we're in the middle of this 269 00:10:39,590 --> 00:10:37,839 gillibrand amendment thing you know the 270 00:10:40,790 --> 00:10:39,600 timing is a weird question there's no 271 00:10:42,550 --> 00:10:40,800 doubt about it i don't know that i have 272 00:10:45,590 --> 00:10:42,560 a good answer but here's what i picked 273 00:10:47,110 --> 00:10:45,600 up from that little clip you just played 274 00:10:49,750 --> 00:10:47,120 and it kind of goes with what you're 275 00:10:50,949 --> 00:10:49,760 saying uh he talked about 276 00:10:53,350 --> 00:10:50,959 the fact that they've been working on 277 00:10:56,310 --> 00:10:53,360 this for a while and i i think those of 278 00:10:58,230 --> 00:10:56,320 us that read the uap task force report 279 00:10:59,590 --> 00:10:58,240 got the impression that more work was 280 00:11:01,990 --> 00:10:59,600 going to come from that that we were 281 00:11:05,269 --> 00:11:02,000 gonna get some sort of follow-up there 282 00:11:07,430 --> 00:11:05,279 and when he's talking about it uh he 283 00:11:09,509 --> 00:11:07,440 mentioned that 284 00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:09,519 members of congress have have i don't 285 00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:10,880 know the wording he used but kind of 286 00:11:16,949 --> 00:11:14,000 been kept up to date or or kept apprised 287 00:11:19,030 --> 00:11:16,959 of this process and what's so weird 288 00:11:21,030 --> 00:11:19,040 about that i don't know which members of 289 00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:21,040 congress he's talking about but one of 290 00:11:25,030 --> 00:11:22,560 the co-signers on the gila brand 291 00:11:26,389 --> 00:11:25,040 amendment is marco rubio and he's one of 292 00:11:29,030 --> 00:11:26,399 the people that seems to have been at 293 00:11:31,350 --> 00:11:29,040 the spearhead of getting the uaptf to 294 00:11:33,350 --> 00:11:31,360 even happen in the first place and to 295 00:11:35,750 --> 00:11:33,360 get the issue studied by the pentagon in 296 00:11:39,030 --> 00:11:35,760 the first place so 297 00:11:40,150 --> 00:11:39,040 it seems weird that you would be 298 00:11:42,550 --> 00:11:40,160 keeping 299 00:11:44,710 --> 00:11:42,560 you know rubio and others are prized as 300 00:11:46,630 --> 00:11:44,720 you're making progress on 301 00:11:49,750 --> 00:11:46,640 towards this announcement towards this 302 00:11:52,629 --> 00:11:49,760 creation of the aoi msg 303 00:11:54,710 --> 00:11:52,639 and at the same point that senator is 304 00:11:56,870 --> 00:11:54,720 independently working with other members 305 00:11:59,110 --> 00:11:56,880 of congress to get a 306 00:12:00,150 --> 00:11:59,120 congressional oversight sort of office 307 00:12:02,470 --> 00:12:00,160 in place 308 00:12:04,710 --> 00:12:02,480 uh that's looking at the same thing 309 00:12:06,150 --> 00:12:04,720 so i found that really odd and 310 00:12:08,310 --> 00:12:06,160 interesting that he would say that it 311 00:12:10,949 --> 00:12:08,320 does make you know you know tim mcmillan 312 00:12:13,190 --> 00:12:10,959 who i work for over at the debrief and i 313 00:12:14,870 --> 00:12:13,200 don't want to breach any confidences but 314 00:12:17,110 --> 00:12:14,880 one of the comments he made about all of 315 00:12:19,990 --> 00:12:17,120 this recently in our group chat at work 316 00:12:21,750 --> 00:12:20,000 is that uh people don't uh especially in 317 00:12:24,550 --> 00:12:21,760 government the right hand doesn't always 318 00:12:27,190 --> 00:12:24,560 know what the left hand is doing so 319 00:12:28,190 --> 00:12:27,200 i think when in doubt when choosing 320 00:12:31,190 --> 00:12:28,200 between 321 00:12:33,910 --> 00:12:31,200 conspiratorial thinking and disorganized 322 00:12:35,750 --> 00:12:33,920 procedure i usually tend towards people 323 00:12:37,350 --> 00:12:35,760 just being disorganized and not having 324 00:12:40,550 --> 00:12:37,360 their act together 325 00:12:41,750 --> 00:12:40,560 that's what it seems like yeah yeah i do 326 00:12:43,430 --> 00:12:41,760 think 327 00:12:46,150 --> 00:12:43,440 here's what i would i would tell 328 00:12:49,350 --> 00:12:46,160 everyone the place we continue to put 329 00:12:51,509 --> 00:12:49,360 our energy and support is the amendment 330 00:12:53,430 --> 00:12:51,519 and this is why and i'm not against this 331 00:12:54,550 --> 00:12:53,440 pentagon program i think it's a great 332 00:12:56,230 --> 00:12:54,560 idea 333 00:12:58,310 --> 00:12:56,240 if they want to pursue it and follow up 334 00:13:01,430 --> 00:12:58,320 on the work they were assigned to do i 335 00:13:03,910 --> 00:13:01,440 mean that uaptf report more or less said 336 00:13:05,590 --> 00:13:03,920 more information more work more budgets 337 00:13:07,990 --> 00:13:05,600 you know more to do 338 00:13:10,470 --> 00:13:08,000 so having them follow up on that is fine 339 00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:10,480 the way i see this is two competing 340 00:13:13,190 --> 00:13:12,320 opportunities here 341 00:13:15,430 --> 00:13:13,200 one 342 00:13:18,389 --> 00:13:15,440 seems very american 343 00:13:20,470 --> 00:13:18,399 one is run by congress who are the 344 00:13:22,389 --> 00:13:20,480 representatives of the people 345 00:13:24,629 --> 00:13:22,399 that offers congressional oversight 346 00:13:25,750 --> 00:13:24,639 which is effectively the oversight of 347 00:13:28,710 --> 00:13:25,760 the people 348 00:13:30,310 --> 00:13:28,720 and by creating that and by telling us 349 00:13:32,949 --> 00:13:30,320 there will be regular reports and 350 00:13:34,949 --> 00:13:32,959 regular analysis we're all grown-ups we 351 00:13:37,750 --> 00:13:34,959 can take a report from that group that 352 00:13:40,310 --> 00:13:37,760 says okay we we blacked out a few things 353 00:13:42,069 --> 00:13:40,320 here for national security or a couple 354 00:13:44,470 --> 00:13:42,079 of these cases we're not going to talk 355 00:13:45,910 --> 00:13:44,480 about that were i unidentified before 356 00:13:47,829 --> 00:13:45,920 because you know 357 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:47,839 whatever top security reasons we're 358 00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:50,240 adults we can handle them what we're not 359 00:13:54,150 --> 00:13:52,720 gonna sit tight for is the pentagon 360 00:13:56,710 --> 00:13:54,160 swooping in 361 00:13:58,550 --> 00:13:56,720 taking the whole thing over and sending 362 00:13:59,430 --> 00:13:58,560 us back into the chamber of silence 363 00:14:02,790 --> 00:13:59,440 because 364 00:14:05,509 --> 00:14:02,800 that reeks of not just cover-up but of 365 00:14:07,750 --> 00:14:05,519 many possible things going on every 366 00:14:10,710 --> 00:14:07,760 conspiracy theory from 367 00:14:13,030 --> 00:14:10,720 uh the us air force has a secret project 368 00:14:15,189 --> 00:14:13,040 to some military contractor like the 369 00:14:18,230 --> 00:14:15,199 tower lockheed martin has some secret 370 00:14:21,030 --> 00:14:18,240 craft too we're in collusion with aliens 371 00:14:22,870 --> 00:14:21,040 you name the conspiracy theory you slam 372 00:14:24,870 --> 00:14:22,880 that cone of silence back down on this 373 00:14:26,150 --> 00:14:24,880 thing uh that's where we're going and i 374 00:14:27,990 --> 00:14:26,160 think it's gonna get really 375 00:14:29,590 --> 00:14:28,000 uncomfortable for people in the pentagon 376 00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:29,600 because i don't see 377 00:14:33,350 --> 00:14:31,360 this backing off this pressure's only 378 00:14:34,629 --> 00:14:33,360 been going one direction 379 00:14:36,790 --> 00:14:34,639 so 380 00:14:39,030 --> 00:14:36,800 i i think they've put themselves in an 381 00:14:41,350 --> 00:14:39,040 interesting situation but i can tell you 382 00:14:44,069 --> 00:14:41,360 as an outsider uh 383 00:14:47,189 --> 00:14:44,079 i highly prefer the one from congress 384 00:14:49,030 --> 00:14:47,199 that offers reports and accountability 385 00:14:51,110 --> 00:14:49,040 and the ability to vote the people out 386 00:14:53,269 --> 00:14:51,120 of congress that aren't doing the job we 387 00:14:54,949 --> 00:14:53,279 like and put the people in there doing 388 00:14:57,750 --> 00:14:54,959 the job we want that's that feels 389 00:14:59,509 --> 00:14:57,760 american to me uh the military's 390 00:15:02,069 --> 00:14:59,519 swooping in and saying that we're gonna 391 00:15:04,310 --> 00:15:02,079 take over this whole investigation we're 392 00:15:06,949 --> 00:15:04,320 gonna keep it all in house we may or may 393 00:15:09,990 --> 00:15:06,959 not share stuff with you guys we may or 394 00:15:12,150 --> 00:15:10,000 may not but uh we're taking over uh 395 00:15:15,189 --> 00:15:12,160 that's very draconian and very scary and 396 00:15:17,509 --> 00:15:15,199 smells like the last 70 plus years to me 397 00:15:19,670 --> 00:15:17,519 exactly man it's just echoes of 398 00:15:21,910 --> 00:15:19,680 everything we've seen and heard before 399 00:15:24,150 --> 00:15:21,920 chrissy says ryan and chris

this dumb msg thing 414 00:15:59,509 --> 00:15:57,680 and i'm just like oh no that's not the 415 00:16:01,910 --> 00:15:59,519 real story here that's not the real 416 00:16:03,670 --> 00:16:01,920 story ryan you know you work over with 417 00:16:05,509 --> 00:16:03,680 me at the debrief a little peek inside 418 00:16:08,069 --> 00:16:05,519 the news business since i'm still pretty 419 00:16:10,470 --> 00:16:08,079 new to it but in a lot of ways places 420 00:16:13,590 --> 00:16:10,480 like cnn and these other places they 421 00:16:16,230 --> 00:16:13,600 reported so heavily on the ua ptf coming 422 00:16:18,949 --> 00:16:16,240 out at the end of june that in many ways 423 00:16:20,949 --> 00:16:18,959 this is a natural thing to do in news is 424 00:16:22,949 --> 00:16:20,959 when the gila brand amendment came out 425 00:16:25,030 --> 00:16:22,959 it was kind of collaterally related but 426 00:16:26,550 --> 00:16:25,040 this was direct this is the pentagon the 427 00:16:29,350 --> 00:16:26,560 same people that issued that first 428 00:16:32,870 --> 00:16:29,360 report are coming out saying here's the 429 00:16:34,949 --> 00:16:32,880 action steps we promised in that report 430 00:16:37,269 --> 00:16:34,959 so it's a natural 431 00:16:39,749 --> 00:16:37,279 news thing to cover it as a follow-up 432 00:16:42,710 --> 00:16:39,759 the timing i agree is definitely suspect 433 00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:42,720 it's a little weird uh it feels like uh 434 00:16:46,150 --> 00:16:44,160 i think a lot of us would have liked to 435 00:16:47,749 --> 00:16:46,160 seen the amendment pass 436 00:16:49,590 --> 00:16:47,759 and then if the pentagon jumped up with 437 00:16:50,470 --> 00:16:49,600 this a week or two later and said hey by 438 00:16:52,150 --> 00:16:50,480 the way 439 00:16:53,749 --> 00:16:52,160 we're still following up on the work we 440 00:16:55,430 --> 00:16:53,759 were assigned to do and the work we 441 00:16:57,590 --> 00:16:55,440 promised and we're putting the whole 442 00:16:59,430 --> 00:16:57,600 task force on it we've given it a stupid 443 00:17:01,030 --> 00:16:59,440 name but we're gonna do it 444 00:17:03,509 --> 00:17:01,040 i think we would all feel like all right 445 00:17:05,429 --> 00:17:03,519 you guys are on to something here but uh 446 00:17:07,909 --> 00:17:05,439 but yeah coming out 447 00:17:09,990 --> 00:17:07,919 as congress is fighting to get this 448 00:17:12,549 --> 00:17:10,000 amendment through and again an amendment 449 00:17:14,870 --> 00:17:12,559 that offers public reports and 450 00:17:17,990 --> 00:17:14,880 mechanisms of accountability for the 451 00:17:20,630 --> 00:17:18,000 american public uh yeah it's definitely 452 00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:20,640 not a not a good timing that's for sure 453 00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:22,400 not only that chris you got this whole 454 00:17:27,510 --> 00:17:24,880 idea of trans medium craft as well in 455 00:17:30,710 --> 00:17:27,520 the gila brand amendment which was 456 00:17:33,270 --> 00:17:30,720 uh in my opinion historic for a congress 457 00:17:35,510 --> 00:17:33,280 person to say we want to look at 458 00:17:38,390 --> 00:17:35,520 transmedium craft we want to look at 459 00:17:40,230 --> 00:17:38,400 crash retrievals i mean those things 460 00:17:42,549 --> 00:17:40,240 were blowing my mind and you're not 461 00:17:44,630 --> 00:17:42,559 hearing any of that with this pentagon 462 00:17:46,710 --> 00:17:44,640 thing they're just again talking about 463 00:17:49,350 --> 00:17:46,720 national security threats with aerial 464 00:17:51,990 --> 00:17:49,360 vehicles blah blah blah china russia 465 00:17:54,710 --> 00:17:52,000 drones and it's so boring man but then 466 00:17:56,549 --> 00:17:54,720 we've got this ambitious thing happening 467 00:17:58,390 --> 00:17:56,559 on the side that just 468 00:18:01,350 --> 00:17:58,400 i don't know i'm worried you know the 469 00:18:03,909 --> 00:18:01,360 more i i speak to jazz shaw who has 470 00:18:07,430 --> 00:18:03,919 covered this immensely and also tim 471 00:18:08,390 --> 00:18:07,440 mcmillan at the debrief immensely um 472 00:18:10,549 --> 00:18:08,400 i um 473 00:18:13,430 --> 00:18:10,559 i just hope it doesn't lose steam and i 474 00:18:15,830 --> 00:18:13,440 hope it passes um i'm waiting minute by 475 00:18:18,310 --> 00:18:15,840 minute to hear what's going on if jaz 476 00:18:21,190 --> 00:18:18,320 has any updates for for us let us know 477 00:18:23,190 --> 00:18:21,200 my man um like i wouldn't you know ryan 478 00:18:25,830 --> 00:18:23,200 i wouldn't be surprised on this and keep 479 00:18:29,669 --> 00:18:25,840 in mind the military's job is to do what 480 00:18:31,909 --> 00:18:29,679 they're doing right look for threats so 481 00:18:34,070 --> 00:18:31,919 i i wouldn't be surprised if the 482 00:18:36,070 --> 00:18:34,080 military would love to be done with this 483 00:18:38,310 --> 00:18:36,080 right they would love to do their own 484 00:18:39,669 --> 00:18:38,320 internal study and come out and say 485 00:18:40,549 --> 00:18:39,679 either 486 00:18:42,230 --> 00:18:40,559 okay 487 00:18:43,990 --> 00:18:42,240 china or russia or somebody has 488 00:18:47,029 --> 00:18:44,000 leapfrogged us and we're seeing some 489 00:18:49,510 --> 00:18:47,039 scary drones that can go mach 15 and 490 00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:49,520 have no propulsion or these other things 491 00:18:52,230 --> 00:18:50,480 or 492 00:18:55,270 --> 00:18:52,240 come back and say 493 00:18:57,430 --> 00:18:55,280 kind of what the uaptf said which is 494 00:18:59,110 --> 00:18:57,440 there's stuff out there we're not really 495 00:19:01,430 --> 00:18:59,120 sure if it's a threat 496 00:19:03,430 --> 00:19:01,440 so that makes it not our problem and i 497 00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:03,440 think the military would love to do that 498 00:19:08,070 --> 00:19:06,000 i think they would love to be done 499 00:19:09,510 --> 00:19:08,080 looking at this issue because the truth 500 00:19:11,510 --> 00:19:09,520 of the matter is 501 00:19:13,350 --> 00:19:11,520 for most people that have been following 502 00:19:14,789 --> 00:19:13,360 this they know that the military has 503 00:19:17,669 --> 00:19:14,799 been dealing with this since the late 504 00:19:20,310 --> 00:19:17,679 1940s i mean i tell people all the time 505 00:19:25,750 --> 00:19:20,320 go watch the documentary ufo it's a it's 506 00:19:27,350 --> 00:19:25,760 a drama dramatized documentary from 1956 507 00:19:29,669 --> 00:19:27,360 and what they did is looked at the 508 00:19:32,150 --> 00:19:29,679 problem that they were having you know 509 00:19:34,789 --> 00:19:32,160 and they were analyzing in blue book and 510 00:19:37,669 --> 00:19:34,799 that whole movie is really 511 00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:37,679 the military seeing stuff flying around 512 00:19:43,830 --> 00:19:40,480 it has maneuvers we can't replicate 513 00:19:45,990 --> 00:19:43,840 there have observables and the end of 514 00:19:49,590 --> 00:19:46,000 that the documentarian who made that 515 00:19:51,350 --> 00:19:49,600 pretty much makes a speech that says 516 00:19:53,830 --> 00:19:51,360 if it's not ours 517 00:19:55,669 --> 00:19:53,840 and it's not russia's 518 00:19:56,549 --> 00:19:55,679 what's left 519 00:19:58,789 --> 00:19:56,559 right 520 00:20:00,310 --> 00:19:58,799 and i still think that the military 521 00:20:04,149 --> 00:20:00,320 would love to get to that point where 522 00:20:05,990 --> 00:20:04,159 they can say we have ruled out a threat 523 00:20:06,950 --> 00:20:06,000 we know it's not russia we know it's not 524 00:20:09,270 --> 00:20:06,960 china 525 00:20:10,789 --> 00:20:09,280 and if it is our own secret project 526 00:20:12,390 --> 00:20:10,799 we're not going to tell you because it's 527 00:20:13,430 --> 00:20:12,400 that's not a threat 528 00:20:18,390 --> 00:20:13,440 and 529 00:20:19,830 --> 00:20:18,400 haven't blown us up in the 70 years or 7 530 00:20:22,149 --> 00:20:19,840 000 years or whatever it is they've been 531 00:20:24,310 --> 00:20:22,159 visiting if it is of them 532 00:20:26,070 --> 00:20:24,320 uh so that's not our problem you guys 533 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:26,080 scientists go figure it out congress you 534 00:20:30,390 --> 00:20:28,000 go figure it out not our problem 535 00:20:32,950 --> 00:20:30,400 so that's where i'm hopeful here i'm 536 00:20:35,430 --> 00:20:32,960 hopeful that the military will do their 537 00:20:38,149 --> 00:20:35,440 job and either rule in or rule out 538 00:20:39,990 --> 00:20:38,159 chinese russian or other foreign drones 539 00:20:41,590 --> 00:20:40,000 and if they come to the conclusion that 540 00:20:43,669 --> 00:20:41,600 it's not that 541 00:20:45,190 --> 00:20:43,679 and that it's not ours or at least not 542 00:20:47,110 --> 00:20:45,200 ours they're willing to report on and 543 00:20:48,870 --> 00:20:47,120 they wash their hands at that point and 544 00:20:50,870 --> 00:20:48,880 say that's all we'll give you we're the 545 00:20:52,950 --> 00:20:50,880 military we don't know it's for 546 00:20:54,870 --> 00:20:52,960 scientists and nasa and other people to 547 00:20:56,390 --> 00:20:54,880 figure out well what do you know we got 548 00:20:58,789 --> 00:20:56,400 scientists in nasa looking at the 549 00:21:00,310 --> 00:20:58,799 problem and we have potentially congress 550 00:21:01,990 --> 00:21:00,320 looking at it so 551 00:21:04,390 --> 00:21:02,000 i wouldn't be surprised to see us go 552 00:21:06,070 --> 00:21:04,400 along two tracks for a while and then 553 00:21:08,070 --> 00:21:06,080 have the military say all right we're 554 00:21:09,990 --> 00:21:08,080 out of this problem the flip side of 555 00:21:11,590 --> 00:21:10,000 that of course is if the military has 556 00:21:13,990 --> 00:21:11,600 all these 557 00:21:15,830 --> 00:21:14,000 videos and photos and things that guys 558 00:21:17,029 --> 00:21:15,840 like elizondo and reid and others have 559 00:21:18,630 --> 00:21:17,039 pointed to 560 00:21:20,390 --> 00:21:18,640 at some point they're gonna have to deal 561 00:21:22,230 --> 00:21:20,400 with that that's an information bubble 562 00:21:24,870 --> 00:21:22,240 we know it exists too many people have 563 00:21:26,630 --> 00:21:24,880 pointed it out so uh that is a problem 564 00:21:28,950 --> 00:21:26,640 that they have for sure 565 00:21:30,470 --> 00:21:28,960 absolutely man and like you you 566 00:21:32,390 --> 00:21:30,480 mentioned science which is what we're 567 00:21:34,950 --> 00:21:32,400 going to talk about a lot tonight which 568 00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:34,960 i'm really excited about but um we have 569 00:21:38,789 --> 00:21:36,240 scientists 570 00:21:40,710 --> 00:21:38,799 looking at uap now more serious than 571 00:21:43,830 --> 00:21:40,720 ever we have the galileo project i know 572 00:21:45,990 --> 00:21:43,840 you you have covered this um over at the 573 00:21:49,430 --> 00:21:46,000 debrief and um 574 00:21:53,110 --> 00:21:49,440 and and we have you know a bunch of 575 00:21:54,950 --> 00:21:53,120 people scientific coalitions for the scu 576 00:21:57,190 --> 00:21:54,960 yeah yes 577 00:21:59,350 --> 00:21:57,200 so that that's what excites me most man 578 00:22:02,070 --> 00:21:59,360 again it's not about the military and 579 00:22:03,750 --> 00:22:02,080 the threat angle for me it's it's 580 00:22:06,630 --> 00:22:03,760 actually empowering a lot of these 581 00:22:09,190 --> 00:22:06,640 scientists to now be like huh there 582 00:22:11,750 --> 00:22:09,200 might be something to this it's not as 583 00:22:13,909 --> 00:22:11,760 crazy to talk about um maybe we could 584 00:22:15,990 --> 00:22:13,919 get some funding to look into it more 585 00:22:18,549 --> 00:22:16,000 right if you're somebody else thinks 586 00:22:21,190 --> 00:22:18,559 it's not a threat if you're somebody who 587 00:22:23,669 --> 00:22:21,200 thinks it's not russia and it's not 588 00:22:27,270 --> 00:22:23,679 china and or a foreign adversary and you 589 00:22:29,750 --> 00:22:27,280 think it is potentially a non-human 590 00:22:32,390 --> 00:22:29,760 technological intelligence uh the more 591 00:22:33,350 --> 00:22:32,400 people looking at it the better so 592 00:22:36,310 --> 00:22:33,360 yes 593 00:22:38,070 --> 00:22:36,320 i still feel like there's this big box 594 00:22:40,630 --> 00:22:38,080 of goodies the military isn't sharing 595 00:22:42,950 --> 00:22:40,640 with everybody but i do feel like if we 596 00:22:44,789 --> 00:22:42,960 go down the path of the gila brand 597 00:22:47,510 --> 00:22:44,799 amendment if we continue down the path 598 00:22:49,669 --> 00:22:47,520 of nasa and these other organizations 599 00:22:52,950 --> 00:22:49,679 somebody will get to evaluate that 600 00:22:56,149 --> 00:22:52,960 information at some point we will all 601 00:22:58,549 --> 00:22:56,159 get our hands on it that's my belief 602 00:23:00,310 --> 00:22:58,559 i hope so man i'm with you and i i 603 00:23:03,110 --> 00:23:00,320 believe strongly that it's going to be a 604 00:23:05,750 --> 00:23:03,120 crazy 2022 and probably even a crazier 605 00:23:07,669 --> 00:23:05,760 2023 but um we're getting ahead of 606 00:23:08,470 --> 00:23:07,679 ourselves i want to rewind if you don't 607 00:23:11,350 --> 00:23:08,480 mind 608 00:23:13,270 --> 00:23:11,360 um let's go back to the beginning 609 00:23:16,149 --> 00:23:13,280 the very beginning of christopher 610 00:23:19,510 --> 00:23:16,159 plane's existence the glimmer in your 611 00:23:22,310 --> 00:23:19,520 mother's eye um how did you first get 612 00:23:24,149 --> 00:23:22,320 interested in ufos what brought you into 613 00:23:28,070 --> 00:23:24,159 this crazy community that we call 614 00:23:29,990 --> 00:23:28,080 ufology so uh i've talked previously 615 00:23:31,990 --> 00:23:30,000 about my own 616 00:23:34,630 --> 00:23:32,000 if you want to call it uh experience or 617 00:23:37,669 --> 00:23:34,640 whatever it really just was i was seven 618 00:23:38,630 --> 00:23:37,679 years old it was the spring of 77 619 00:23:40,789 --> 00:23:38,640 and 620 00:23:43,430 --> 00:23:40,799 i saw what could be described as the 621 00:23:45,669 --> 00:23:43,440 exact triangle from the photo that tim 622 00:23:47,590 --> 00:23:45,679 mcmillan that that artist rendering like 623 00:23:49,669 --> 00:23:47,600 the three lights in the corner 624 00:23:51,750 --> 00:23:49,679 going really i really really high up in 625 00:23:53,590 --> 00:23:51,760 the sky like airplane height and just 626 00:23:55,590 --> 00:23:53,600 cruising along the sky and there was 627 00:23:56,950 --> 00:23:55,600 someone else there a couple other people 628 00:23:58,950 --> 00:23:56,960 there and i've confirmed with at least 629 00:24:00,789 --> 00:23:58,960 one person that it's not some made up 630 00:24:03,430 --> 00:24:00,799 childhood memory something i really saw 631 00:24:05,269 --> 00:24:03,440 but i didn't really ever have 632 00:24:07,269 --> 00:24:05,279 perspective you know at that point in 633 00:24:09,750 --> 00:24:07,279 time it was right before star wars and 634 00:24:12,230 --> 00:24:09,760 close encounters of the first uh third 635 00:24:14,390 --> 00:24:12,240 kind both came out that year so although 636 00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:14,400 there was science fiction things about 637 00:24:19,110 --> 00:24:16,799 aliens and people from other worlds from 638 00:24:21,269 --> 00:24:19,120 the 50s or whatever there wasn't really 639 00:24:23,350 --> 00:24:21,279 a ufo 640 00:24:25,190 --> 00:24:23,360 culture at least that i was aware of at 641 00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:25,200 age seven 642 00:24:29,909 --> 00:24:27,679 in that fall after i just turned eight 643 00:24:32,149 --> 00:24:29,919 years old and i've mentioned this before 644 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:32,159 a television network television show 645 00:24:36,710 --> 00:24:34,640 came on called in search of 646 00:24:38,630 --> 00:24:36,720 and what in search of was the easiest 647 00:24:41,510 --> 00:24:38,640 way to describe it is it was the 648 00:24:44,149 --> 00:24:41,520 predecessor to ancient aliens it was 649 00:24:46,549 --> 00:24:44,159 hosted by leonard nimoy who played spock 650 00:24:50,310 --> 00:24:46,559 in the original star trek series 651 00:24:53,750 --> 00:24:50,320 and they would look at ufos loch ness 652 00:24:55,750 --> 00:24:53,760 monster ghosts bermuda triangle 653 00:24:58,630 --> 00:24:55,760 pyramids you name it stuff that all 654 00:25:01,110 --> 00:24:58,640 falls under that kind of ancient aliens 655 00:25:03,750 --> 00:25:01,120 uh you know mystery scientific mystery 656 00:25:06,390 --> 00:25:03,760 sort of uh phenomenon but there's no 657 00:25:08,789 --> 00:25:06,400 doubt that the bulk the the topic they 658 00:25:11,350 --> 00:25:08,799 covered the most was ufos 659 00:25:12,870 --> 00:25:11,360 and they covered it right there in that 660 00:25:15,190 --> 00:25:12,880 first season 661 00:25:16,789 --> 00:25:15,200 and i saw it with my father and we were 662 00:25:18,710 --> 00:25:16,799 watching it together 663 00:25:21,269 --> 00:25:18,720 and it just became something we were 664 00:25:22,950 --> 00:25:21,279 both interested in we both went you know 665 00:25:25,110 --> 00:25:22,960 it seemed 666 00:25:26,789 --> 00:25:25,120 viable that 667 00:25:29,269 --> 00:25:26,799 beings from another planet might be here 668 00:25:31,110 --> 00:25:29,279 and it also seemed viable that secret 669 00:25:33,029 --> 00:25:31,120 technology was being developed some my 670 00:25:34,070 --> 00:25:33,039 father impressed upon me at a very early 671 00:25:37,909 --> 00:25:34,080 age 672 00:25:41,029 --> 00:25:37,919 in 1980 in that same series 673 00:25:43,269 --> 00:25:41,039 uh jesse marcel came on 674 00:25:46,310 --> 00:25:43,279 and he gave that interview clip that we 675 00:25:49,990 --> 00:25:46,320 see a lot those interview segments where 676 00:25:52,310 --> 00:25:50,000 he went out to uh um corona ranch and he 677 00:25:54,310 --> 00:25:52,320 walked around where he had found the 678 00:25:55,590 --> 00:25:54,320 crash debris outside of roswell new 679 00:25:56,710 --> 00:25:55,600 mexico 680 00:25:59,190 --> 00:25:56,720 and 681 00:26:02,390 --> 00:25:59,200 it was so compelling to hear him talk 682 00:26:06,149 --> 00:26:02,400 about trying to burn it trying to cut it 683 00:26:08,710 --> 00:26:06,159 the memory metal and his firm belief 684 00:26:11,430 --> 00:26:08,720 that it was not a crashed balloon or 685 00:26:13,830 --> 00:26:11,440 human craft and that stuck with me and 686 00:26:15,990 --> 00:26:13,840 that added that fuel on top of 687 00:26:18,549 --> 00:26:16,000 everything else and i tell people all 688 00:26:20,710 --> 00:26:18,559 the time in a pre-internet era i lived 689 00:26:22,870 --> 00:26:20,720 in the bookstore i lived in the library 690 00:26:24,950 --> 00:26:22,880 in the 80s as well as in the 90s but 691 00:26:26,870 --> 00:26:24,960 particularly in the 80s 692 00:26:29,430 --> 00:26:26,880 getting everything i could gathering 693 00:26:31,909 --> 00:26:29,440 every john mack book and bud hopkins on 694 00:26:34,470 --> 00:26:31,919 abductions gathering every 695 00:26:36,870 --> 00:26:34,480 j allen heineck book or stanton 696 00:26:39,669 --> 00:26:36,880 freeman's work any of that stuff i could 697 00:26:42,950 --> 00:26:39,679 get because there wasn't really uh there 698 00:26:45,110 --> 00:26:42,960 wasn't podcasts there wasn't ufo 699 00:26:47,190 --> 00:26:45,120 channels there was no ryan sprague 700 00:26:48,950 --> 00:26:47,200 somewhere in the skies out there talking 701 00:26:51,269 --> 00:26:48,960 about it bringing on 702 00:26:53,350 --> 00:26:51,279 top researchers and people to talk about 703 00:26:55,430 --> 00:26:53,360 it you really have to kind of piece this 704 00:26:58,230 --> 00:26:55,440 story together on your own and it was a 705 00:27:00,549 --> 00:26:58,240 pretty lonely exploit i wasn't i wasn't 706 00:27:02,230 --> 00:27:00,559 a lonely kid but when it came to my ufo 707 00:27:03,110 --> 00:27:02,240 interest i could discuss it with my 708 00:27:04,549 --> 00:27:03,120 father 709 00:27:07,110 --> 00:27:04,559 he would definitely 710 00:27:08,149 --> 00:27:07,120 help me get books and entertain the the 711 00:27:09,669 --> 00:27:08,159 interest 712 00:27:12,070 --> 00:27:09,679 but uh 713 00:27:13,590 --> 00:27:12,080 yeah it really wasn't until 714 00:27:15,669 --> 00:27:13,600 you know 715 00:27:17,510 --> 00:27:15,679 last couple year really last summer i 716 00:27:19,430 --> 00:27:17,520 tell people all the time i kind of wrote 717 00:27:23,110 --> 00:27:19,440 this thing all the way through the the 718 00:27:25,750 --> 00:27:23,120 um press club event in 2001 719 00:27:28,549 --> 00:27:25,760 uh the dr greer press club event so for 720 00:27:30,630 --> 00:27:28,559 a good 20 plus years i followed it 721 00:27:32,149 --> 00:27:30,640 really clear uh close and when that 722 00:27:34,789 --> 00:27:32,159 event kind of 723 00:27:36,710 --> 00:27:34,799 brought all these great witnesses pilots 724 00:27:39,669 --> 00:27:36,720 and and uh air traffic controllers 725 00:27:41,909 --> 00:27:39,679 military witnesses police officers to 726 00:27:44,950 --> 00:27:41,919 one place and they laid out 727 00:27:48,470 --> 00:27:44,960 to that point the most compelling case 728 00:27:51,110 --> 00:27:48,480 for a real phenomenon a real situation 729 00:27:54,070 --> 00:27:51,120 crafts displaying the observables the 730 00:27:57,909 --> 00:27:54,080 five six observables whichever you like 731 00:28:00,789 --> 00:27:57,919 and uh that being a real thing as a 732 00:28:04,149 --> 00:28:00,799 matter of fact even back in the 70s 733 00:28:06,310 --> 00:28:04,159 when a george lucas made i'm sorry 734 00:28:09,510 --> 00:28:06,320 steven spielberg made a close encounters 735 00:28:12,149 --> 00:28:09,520 of the first uh third kind 736 00:28:13,430 --> 00:28:12,159 there's a scene really early on in the 737 00:28:15,269 --> 00:28:13,440 movie 738 00:28:16,789 --> 00:28:15,279 uh right near the beginning where you 739 00:28:17,990 --> 00:28:16,799 see a room full of air traffic 740 00:28:21,750 --> 00:28:18,000 controllers 741 00:28:24,149 --> 00:28:21,760 talking to a plane and this the one 742 00:28:26,310 --> 00:28:24,159 pilot kind of spots a light and it's a 743 00:28:27,269 --> 00:28:26,320 really it's a really gripping well done 744 00:28:29,110 --> 00:28:27,279 scene 745 00:28:30,870 --> 00:28:29,120 that shows what these guys are going 746 00:28:33,269 --> 00:28:30,880 through talking to pilots of two 747 00:28:35,669 --> 00:28:33,279 different planes who are seeing this and 748 00:28:37,190 --> 00:28:35,679 it zips by one of the planes and we kind 749 00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:37,200 of hear the static through the radio and 750 00:28:40,870 --> 00:28:39,360 everything and the reason i find that so 751 00:28:43,909 --> 00:28:40,880 compelling is 752 00:28:45,990 --> 00:28:43,919 uh steven spielberg cast those were all 753 00:28:46,870 --> 00:28:46,000 real air traffic controllers in that 754 00:28:49,269 --> 00:28:46,880 room 755 00:28:51,350 --> 00:28:49,279 and they all said that they've either 756 00:28:53,190 --> 00:28:51,360 witnessed or talked to pilots or other 757 00:28:55,990 --> 00:28:53,200 air traffic controllers who have 758 00:28:57,990 --> 00:28:56,000 witnessed that exact same circumstance 759 00:29:00,070 --> 00:28:58,000 so rather than spielberg creating 760 00:29:01,669 --> 00:29:00,080 something out of whole cloth he went to 761 00:29:03,750 --> 00:29:01,679 people who have experienced it and 762 00:29:06,149 --> 00:29:03,760 essentially wrote the scene off of what 763 00:29:08,310 --> 00:29:06,159 they experienced and 764 00:29:10,310 --> 00:29:08,320 any time that movie's on even if i don't 765 00:29:12,230 --> 00:29:10,320 get through all of it i try and watch 766 00:29:14,310 --> 00:29:12,240 that scene because you see and hear the 767 00:29:16,870 --> 00:29:14,320 voices of these real air traffic 768 00:29:19,750 --> 00:29:16,880 controllers essentially reenacting what 769 00:29:21,510 --> 00:29:19,760 they've experienced in the 1970s with 770 00:29:24,070 --> 00:29:21,520 these craft it was really an awesome 771 00:29:26,310 --> 00:29:24,080 sequence that is so cool man i know i 772 00:29:28,389 --> 00:29:26,320 remember vividly that scene you know 773 00:29:30,230 --> 00:29:28,399 they report they sort of say what's 774 00:29:31,750 --> 00:29:30,240 going on and then in the control room 775 00:29:34,149 --> 00:29:31,760 it's like 776 00:29:35,990 --> 00:29:34,159 do you want to report a ufo yeah you run 777 00:29:37,750 --> 00:29:36,000 a report a ufo and then there's a big 778 00:29:44,310 --> 00:29:37,760 pause and then 779 00:29:47,190 --> 00:29:45,669 i don't want to report one of those 780 00:29:48,789 --> 00:29:47,200 things either 781 00:29:50,549 --> 00:29:48,799 and then they come back to the first and 782 00:29:52,310 --> 00:29:50,559 they go would you like to file any sort 783 00:29:54,789 --> 00:29:52,320 of report he goes i wouldn't know what 784 00:29:56,710 --> 00:29:54,799 kind of report to file tower 785 00:29:57,909 --> 00:29:56,720 well such a great scene and i didn't 786 00:30:00,870 --> 00:29:57,919 know that through air traffic 787 00:30:03,510 --> 00:30:00,880 controllers until the magic of uh amazon 788 00:30:05,510 --> 00:30:03,520 x-ray i was watching the movie on amazon 789 00:30:07,590 --> 00:30:05,520 one night i was moving my cursor around 790 00:30:10,149 --> 00:30:07,600 it to check the data on x-ray and have 791 00:30:11,669 --> 00:30:10,159 this whole paragraph about the real 792 00:30:13,750 --> 00:30:11,679 traffic controllers and their real 793 00:30:16,789 --> 00:30:13,760 experiences so 794 00:30:18,549 --> 00:30:16,799 you know i picked that up 45 years after 795 00:30:20,310 --> 00:30:18,559 the first time years after the first 796 00:30:21,029 --> 00:30:20,320 time i whatever i first saw that movie 797 00:30:23,350 --> 00:30:21,039 so 798 00:30:25,350 --> 00:30:23,360 yep close encounters of the third kind 799 00:30:27,590 --> 00:30:25,360 trivia some 800 00:30:29,990 --> 00:30:27,600 40 years later i love it man well and 801 00:30:31,990 --> 00:30:30,000 you know people point out that francois 802 00:30:33,110 --> 00:30:32,000 truffaut in that movie essentially was 803 00:30:34,789 --> 00:30:33,120 playing 804 00:30:36,710 --> 00:30:34,799 um 805 00:30:38,789 --> 00:30:36,720 who am i thinking of the 806 00:30:41,750 --> 00:30:38,799 jacques valet he's basically portraying 807 00:30:42,870 --> 00:30:41,760 chocolate jay allen heineck appears in 808 00:30:46,149 --> 00:30:42,880 the movie 809 00:30:48,230 --> 00:30:46,159 i mean spielberg had as much information 810 00:30:52,070 --> 00:30:48,240 as you could have in the 70s when he put 811 00:30:54,070 --> 00:30:52,080 that together on the five observables on 812 00:30:56,230 --> 00:30:54,080 the thing interfering with electronics 813 00:30:58,310 --> 00:30:56,240 and the vehicles on he portrayed all 814 00:31:00,470 --> 00:30:58,320 those things in that movie so there's 815 00:31:02,549 --> 00:31:00,480 definitely some horror corny kind of 70s 816 00:31:04,389 --> 00:31:02,559 elements in that movie and some some 817 00:31:06,870 --> 00:31:04,399 kramer versus kramer kind of family 818 00:31:10,070 --> 00:31:06,880 drama in the movie but at its core it's 819 00:31:12,070 --> 00:31:10,080 it's my favorite ufo movie by far well 820 00:31:15,029 --> 00:31:12,080 and it made me look at mashed potatoes 821 00:31:17,590 --> 00:31:15,039 never the same again right um well chris 822 00:31:19,590 --> 00:31:17,600 what do you before we move on what do 823 00:31:21,509 --> 00:31:19,600 you make of that what spielberg did with 824 00:31:22,630 --> 00:31:21,519 this movie why do you think 825 00:31:24,470 --> 00:31:22,640 he 826 00:31:26,230 --> 00:31:24,480 made this movie do you think a lot of 827 00:31:27,990 --> 00:31:26,240 people i really like that 828 00:31:30,070 --> 00:31:28,000 you know isn't i i believe that's an 829 00:31:32,230 --> 00:31:30,080 information thing yeah yeah i think 830 00:31:33,909 --> 00:31:32,240 james fox once said that steven 831 00:31:36,630 --> 00:31:33,919 spielberg was the one that pointed him 832 00:31:40,630 --> 00:31:36,640 to the ariel school uh incident 833 00:31:43,190 --> 00:31:40,640 uh yeah and i think that you know 834 00:31:45,190 --> 00:31:43,200 when you're in show business the people 835 00:31:47,430 --> 00:31:45,200 i have the chance to work with and be 836 00:31:49,269 --> 00:31:47,440 around that are actually on camera types 837 00:31:51,909 --> 00:31:49,279 people love telling you stuff you're a 838 00:31:53,590 --> 00:31:51,919 celebrity i can't wait to tell you you 839 00:31:56,470 --> 00:31:53,600 know i think there's even a famous story 840 00:31:58,789 --> 00:31:56,480 about uh uh president nixon telling uh 841 00:32:00,789 --> 00:31:58,799 jackie gleason or so you know jfk one of 842 00:32:03,110 --> 00:32:00,799 these guys telling jackie gleason about 843 00:32:04,149 --> 00:32:03,120 ufos and bodies or something but it's 844 00:32:06,789 --> 00:32:04,159 true 845 00:32:09,190 --> 00:32:06,799 and so in putting that movie together 846 00:32:11,350 --> 00:32:09,200 spielberg was talking to i mean if if 847 00:32:13,190 --> 00:32:11,360 it's 1976 and you're 848 00:32:14,950 --> 00:32:13,200 working behind the scenes on that movie 849 00:32:17,110 --> 00:32:14,960 and you're talking to jay allen heimik 850 00:32:19,190 --> 00:32:17,120 and jacques villa i mean you're pretty 851 00:32:22,549 --> 00:32:19,200 much as high up the ufo letters you're 852 00:32:25,990 --> 00:32:22,559 going to get in the 70s and yeah i think 853 00:32:28,310 --> 00:32:26,000 he really tried to portray 854 00:32:31,190 --> 00:32:28,320 what people were really experiencing in 855 00:32:33,190 --> 00:32:31,200 a dramatized fashion with his own kind 856 00:32:34,630 --> 00:32:33,200 of neat take on what the conclusion 857 00:32:36,710 --> 00:32:34,640 might be 858 00:32:39,669 --> 00:32:36,720 yeah yeah and you've got shades of 859 00:32:42,389 --> 00:32:39,679 project serpo in there as well so as 860 00:32:45,750 --> 00:32:42,399 usual it's fact blending with fiction 861 00:32:47,750 --> 00:32:45,760 when it comes to ufos but um well hey um 862 00:32:49,909 --> 00:32:47,760 before we move on to how you got into 863 00:32:51,590 --> 00:32:49,919 the debrief um we should mention the 864 00:32:53,190

00:33:08,070 --> 00:33:05,760 i'm just gonna i don't know what star 871 00:33:11,430 --> 00:33:08,080 wars is ryan but i keep hearing about it 872 00:33:14,389 --> 00:33:11,440 sounds great um yeah you know uh when i 873 00:33:16,149 --> 00:33:14,399 was young again you go back to 1977 i 874 00:33:19,590 --> 00:33:16,159 was eight years old so i was perfectly 875 00:33:21,669 --> 00:33:19,600 primed for star wars to come out and 876 00:33:24,710 --> 00:33:21,679 back in those days a good movie could 877 00:33:27,669 --> 00:33:24,720 stay in the theater for a year so there 878 00:33:29,509 --> 00:33:27,679 was basically a 12-month con of me 879 00:33:31,430 --> 00:33:29,519 trying to get my parents to take me to 880 00:33:33,509 --> 00:33:31,440 that movie over and over and i 881 00:33:36,470 --> 00:33:33,519 successfully saw it six times in the 882 00:33:38,149 --> 00:33:36,480 theater in 1977 in the beginning of 78 883 00:33:39,669 --> 00:33:38,159 which was a huge accomplishment among 884 00:33:41,509 --> 00:33:39,679 the other third and fourth graders i'll 885 00:33:44,149 --> 00:33:41,519 have you know but uh 886 00:33:46,870 --> 00:33:44,159 yeah star wars it's just uh 887 00:33:49,590 --> 00:33:46,880 i like epic storytelling i like that 888 00:33:52,389 --> 00:33:49,600 hero's tale i like the structure of the 889 00:33:55,190 --> 00:33:52,399 iliad and the odyssey which is what uh 890 00:33:58,070 --> 00:33:55,200 what he used for those movies he bases 891 00:34:00,149 --> 00:33:58,080 it more on the the serialized uh buck 892 00:34:02,389 --> 00:34:00,159 rogers from the 50s sort of things he 893 00:34:05,029 --> 00:34:02,399 watched as a kid but there's no doubt 894 00:34:08,790 --> 00:34:05,039 it's a traditional humble beginnings 895 00:34:11,270 --> 00:34:08,800 epic hero tale uh that rises up to 896 00:34:13,669 --> 00:34:11,280 more or less a destiny to embrace it as 897 00:34:16,629 --> 00:34:13,679 a matter of fact directly above that gun 898 00:34:19,109 --> 00:34:16,639 i'm gonna tip this up is my first book 899 00:34:21,510 --> 00:34:19,119 whispers of fate it's an epic fantasy 900 00:34:23,030 --> 00:34:21,520 novel

followed as a fan but i don't have any 1018 00:38:51,990 --> 00:38:51,280 advanced degrees in science or anything 1019 00:38:55,109 --> 00:38:52,000 so 1020 00:38:57,990 --> 00:38:55,119 uh i went to school ucla my shirt 1021 00:39:01,589 --> 00:38:58,000 for political science so that's you know 1022 00:39:04,790 --> 00:39:01,599 it's technically science right um 1023 00:39:06,310 --> 00:39:04,800 when i saw i joined ufo twitter i would 1024 00:39:07,910 --> 00:39:06,320 call it last summer i had opened a 1025 00:39:09,510 --> 00:39:07,920 twitter account a couple of years before 1026 00:39:12,069 --> 00:39:09,520 but animated looks in my timeline we'll 1027 00:39:14,069 --> 00:39:12,079 see i never used it and last summer i 1028 00:39:15,750 --> 00:39:14,079 just decided to jump on there for fun 1029 00:39:18,870 --> 00:39:15,760 and and 1030 00:39:21,510 --> 00:39:18,880 the second season of unidentified with 1031 00:39:22,710 --> 00:39:21,520 lou elizondo and the guys were up and it 1032 00:39:25,030 --> 00:39:22,720 wasn't as 1033 00:39:27,190 --> 00:39:25,040 satisfying as the first season and i 1034 00:39:29,589 --> 00:39:27,200 think like a lot of people that had had 1035 00:39:31,109 --> 00:39:29,599 ridden the roller coaster from 2017 to 1036 00:39:33,349 --> 00:39:31,119 2020 1037 00:39:35,750 --> 00:39:33,359 i wanted more i wanted that next big 1038 00:39:37,430 --> 00:39:35,760 bomb to drop and i saw it wasn't coming 1039 00:39:39,829 --> 00:39:37,440 so i jumped on twitter i knew there 1040 00:39:43,510 --> 00:39:39,839 would be activity there and i started 1041 00:39:45,750 --> 00:39:43,520 following ufo twitter and very quickly i 1042 00:39:48,150 --> 00:39:45,760 stumbled upon one lieutenant tim 1043 00:39:49,829 --> 00:39:48,160 mcmillan and he was somebody i started 1044 00:39:52,310 --> 00:39:49,839 following and i started following the 1045 00:39:55,030 --> 00:39:52,320 other guys in and around the debrief um 1046 00:39:56,710 --> 00:39:55,040 not aware that that project was coming 1047 00:39:59,270 --> 00:39:56,720 and uh 1048 00:40:02,150 --> 00:39:59,280 i had an interaction with tim about the 1049 00:40:04,390 --> 00:40:02,160 ua ptf about this idea of what that 1050 00:40:07,109 --> 00:40:04,400 report might look like and what the 1051 00:40:08,790 --> 00:40:07,119 conclusions in that report might be so i 1052 00:40:11,190 --> 00:40:08,800 threw out my top three guesses on 1053 00:40:12,470 --> 00:40:11,200 twitter and tim swears he remembers this 1054 00:40:13,589 --> 00:40:12,480 although we didn't know each other at 1055 00:40:16,710 --> 00:40:13,599 the time 1056 00:40:18,550 --> 00:40:16,720 and i put out my top three guesses and 1057 00:40:20,550 --> 00:40:18,560 you know i forget what they were but but 1058 00:40:23,750 --> 00:40:20,560 one of them was more or less what they 1059 00:40:24,950 --> 00:40:23,760 reported and tim tweeted back to me and 1060 00:40:28,470 --> 00:40:24,960 he said 1061 00:40:30,710 --> 00:40:28,480 two of these three guesses are incorrect 1062 00:40:32,950 --> 00:40:30,720 and that started a firestorm because 1063 00:40:34,950 --> 00:40:32,960 everybody on twitter went oh crap one of 1064 00:40:36,069 --> 00:40:34,960 these three is correct 1065 00:40:37,589 --> 00:40:36,079 so 1066 00:40:39,430 --> 00:40:37,599 he and i i mean

science fiction novels 1078 00:41:05,030 --> 00:41:02,560 what i didn't realize it would actually 1079 00:41:07,109 --> 00:41:05,040 work the other way i got sucked in 1080 00:41:09,430 -->

through while we've been 1227 00:46:48,950 --> 00:46:46,400 talking because i was putting the 1228 00:46:50,390 --> 00:46:48,960 finishing touches on it today so we are 1229 00:46:52,309 --> 00:46:50,400 right there with that article it's an 1230 00:46:54,790 --> 00:46:52,319 any day sort of thing guys 1231 00:46:56,710 --> 00:46:54,800 perfect chris well let's um let's move 1232

birthday of the debrief 1235 00:47:05,190 --> 00:47:03,119 that's pretty cool but uh yeah oh i was 1236 00:47:06,950 --> 00:47:05,200 tickled when i heard it i told i put 1237 00:47:08,870 --> 00:47:06,960 right in the work group chat we have 1238 00:47:10,230 --> 00:47:08,880 some new video content providers and 1239 00:47:12,230 --> 00:47:10,240 some other people that have been joining 1240 00:47:13,750 --> 00:47:12,240 the team lately and i tweeted out 1241 00:47:15,670 --> 00:47:13,760 private message people and i said hey 1242 00:47:17,190 --> 00:47:15,680 guys it's the one year anniversary 1243 00:47:19,190 --> 00:47:17,200 chrissy newton's been doing that 1244 00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:19,200 christina gomez has been doing that 1245 00:47:22,630 --> 00:47:20,640 letting the world know it's our one year 1246 00:47:24,309 --> 00:47:22,640 anniversary and i figured i'd come on 1247 00:47:26,790 --> 00:47:24,319 here and talk about it since you invited 1248 00:47:29,190 --> 00:47:26,800 me off so yeah it's good timing for sure 1249 00:47:30,790 --> 00:47:29,200 absolutely it's always in the timing if 1250 00:47:33,430 --> 00:47:30,800 i've learned anything well let's talk 1251 00:47:36,870 --> 00:47:33,440 about this uh this first article i want 1252 00:47:39,349 --> 00:47:36,880 to cover here flying saucer for one only 1253 00:47:40,309 --> 00:47:39,359 weeks away from its first 1254 00:47:42,630 --> 00:47:40,319 flight 1255 00:47:44,950 --> 00:47:42,640 now the headline obviously grabbed me as 1256 00:47:46,710 --> 00:47:44,960 i know it did a lot of ufo people so 1257 00:47:48,309 --> 00:47:46,720 yeah man while you're telling us a 1258 00:47:50,230 --> 00:47:48,319 little bit about this i'm gonna pull the 1259 00:47:53,349 --> 00:47:50,240 article up on the share screen but yeah 1260 00:47:57,109 --> 00:47:53,359 give it to us what is this one about so 1261 00:47:59,030 --> 00:47:57,119 uh the new marketplace for private 1262 00:48:00,549 --> 00:47:59,040 transportation uh you know a lot of 1263 00:48:02,309 --> 00:48:00,559 companies are working on self-driving 1264 00:48:04,710 --> 00:48:02,319 cars but what we're seeing is because of 1265 00:48:07,030 --> 00:48:04,720 battery technology and because of drone 1266 00:48:10,069 --> 00:48:07,040 technology we're basically seeing drones 1267 00:48:12,309 --> 00:48:10,079 for people right we're seeing the idea 1268 00:48:14,390 --> 00:48:12,319 of a drone that carries packages or 1269 00:48:17,829 --> 00:48:14,400 carries a camera or whatever being 1270 00:48:20,470 --> 00:48:17,839 scaled up to the to human size 1271 00:48:22,870 --> 00:48:20,480 and letting humans get inside it and fly 1272 00:48:25,030 --> 00:48:22,880 somewhere there's a company called joby 1273 00:48:27,109 --> 00:48:25,040 i mentioned in the article and they've 1274 00:48:29,109 --> 00:48:27,119 already gone through thousands of hours 1275 00:48:31,510 --> 00:48:29,119 of manned flights and testing and 1276 00:48:33,750 --> 00:48:31,520 working with the faa so there's a couple 1277 00:48:36,069 --> 00:48:33,760 of companies that are really close to 1278 00:48:38,230 --> 00:48:36,079 bringing these things to market now 1279 00:48:39,829 --> 00:48:38,240 imagine a drone 1280 00:48:42,549 --> 00:48:39,839 that's part say 1281 00:48:44,870 --> 00:48:42,559 i you live in the city right ryan so say 1282 00:48:47,510 --> 00:48:44,880 it's parked on top of the nearest 1283 00:48:49,829 --> 00:48:47,520 skyscraper building or whatever and you 1284 00:48:50,950 --> 00:48:49,839 take the elevator up and you climb in 1285 00:48:53,030 --> 00:48:50,960 this thing 1286 00:48:55,910 --> 00:48:53,040 and you you put in the destination in 1287 00:48:57,750 --> 00:48:55,920 the gps and it literally takes it from 1288 00:48:59,910 --> 00:48:57,760 there it takes off vertically like a 1289 00:49:01,510 --> 00:48:59,920 drone with four propellers down now this 1290 00:49:03,510 --> 00:49:01,520 isn't the one i'm talking about yet the 1291 00:49:06,309 --> 00:49:03,520 one you have on the screen this is just 1292 00:49:08,950 --> 00:49:06,319 the theory behind the technology you get 1293 00:49:11,109 --> 00:49:08,960 in it it flies you where you want to go 1294 00:49:13,589 --> 00:49:11,119 and it lands vertically we've now 1295 00:49:16,309 --> 00:49:13,599 removed the need for runways right for 1296 00:49:18,870 --> 00:49:16,319 these private even driving even driving 1297 00:49:20,549 --> 00:49:18,880 cars or flying cars something people my 1298 00:49:21,710 --> 00:49:20,559 age have dreamed about people older than 1299 00:49:24,390 --> 00:49:21,720 me forever 1300 00:49:25,910 --> 00:49:24,400 terafugia and aero mobile and some of 1301 00:49:26,870 --> 00:49:25,920 these companies that have made flying 1302 00:49:28,549 --> 00:49:26,880 cars 1303 00:49:31,270 --> 00:49:28,559 they're essentially airplanes you can 1304 00:49:33,030 --> 00:49:31,280 drive so they still need a runway to 1305 00:49:34,950 --> 00:49:33,040 take off and land you can't just pull 1306 00:49:36,470 --> 00:49:34,960 out these things you can pull out of 1307 00:49:38,390 --> 00:49:36,480 your driveway 1308 00:49:40,950 --> 00:49:38,400 so with that in mind this company called 1309 00:49:41,829 --> 00:49:40,960 zava and that's the article you have up 1310 00:49:44,710 --> 00:49:41,839 there 1311 00:49:47,270 --> 00:49:44,720 what they developed is and they have it 1312 00:49:49,670 --> 00:49:47,280 they have a there's a video of a scale 1313 00:49:51,990 --> 00:49:49,680 model being flown on their website and 1314 00:49:54,150 --> 00:49:52,000 then there's a video of the testing of 1315 00:49:57,430 --> 00:49:54,160 the full-size one i believe 1316 00:49:58,870 --> 00:49:57,440 it's basically a flying saucer shaped 1317 00:50:00,390 --> 00:49:58,880 drone 1318 00:50:03,109 --> 00:50:00,400 that takes advantage of some of the 1319 00:50:06,230 --> 00:50:03,119 aerodynamic principles of that shape 1320 00:50:08,710 --> 00:50:06,240 and you climb in the thing 1321 00:50:09,990 --> 00:50:08,720 it takes off vertically like you see on 1322 00:50:11,430 --> 00:50:10,000 the edge 1323 00:50:14,710 --> 00:50:11,440 it tips 1324 00:50:18,230 --> 00:50:14,720 and flies like a flying saucer now while 1325 00:50:19,750 --> 00:50:18,240 it's flying like that you are facing 1326 00:50:24,069 --> 00:50:19,760 face down 1327 00:50:26,710 --> 00:50:24,079 so you basically fly like superman 1328 00:50:29,589 --> 00:50:26,720 again a pre-programmed destination 1329 00:50:31,990 --> 00:50:29,599 and when it gets there it tips back and 1330 00:50:35,270 --> 00:50:32,000 it lands back and you open the doors and 1331 00:50:36,549 --> 00:50:35,280 you just step right out so it's a point 1332 00:50:38,150 --> 00:50:36,559 to point 1333 00:50:41,589 --> 00:50:38,160 one person 1334 00:50:43,990 --> 00:50:41,599 uh flying saucer-shaped drone and the 1335 00:50:44,950 --> 00:50:44,000 thing flies it works 1336 00:50:47,270 --> 00:50:44,960 and 1337 00:50:50,549 --> 00:50:47,280 they've been flying the real full-size 1338 00:50:52,150 --> 00:50:50,559 one on the tether for safety reasons but 1339 00:50:54,790 --> 00:50:52,160 that's what my article mentioned is 1340 00:50:56,470 --> 00:50:54,800 they're only weeks away from doing these 1341 00:50:59,109 --> 00:50:56,480 first flights 1342 00:51:00,549 --> 00:50:59,119 uh without the tether and the founder of 1343 00:51:02,870 --> 00:51:00,559 the company i don't remember his name 1344 00:51:05,589 --> 00:51:02,880 from the article but he said uh they're 1345 00:51:07,510 --> 00:51:05,599 only a few months away meaning before 1346 00:51:09,190 --> 00:51:07,520 the end of the upcoming year 1347 00:51:10,790 --> 00:51:09,200 they will be doing test flights with 1348 00:51:13,829 --> 00:51:10,800 people in them there will be people 1349 00:51:15,349 --> 00:51:13,839 flying these one-man flying saucers so 1350 00:51:16,950 --> 00:51:15,359 uh they're not going to display any 1351 00:51:19,270 --> 00:51:16,960 observables they're not going to break 1352 00:51:21,430 --> 00:51:19,280 the atmosphere and uh you know they're 1353 00:51:23,349 --> 00:51:21,440 not going to take you to outer space 1354 00:51:25,190 --> 00:51:23,359 but if you're looking for a personal 1355 00:51:27,829 --> 00:51:25,200 drone that will take you from point to 1356 00:51:31,349 --> 00:51:27,839 point a single person 1357 00:51:33,750 --> 00:51:31,359 i mean the thing goes 160 miles an hour 1358 00:51:34,630 --> 00:51:33,760 and uh it's good for 1359 00:51:36,230 --> 00:51:34,640 uh 1360 00:51:38,150 --> 00:51:36,240 i'm trying to remember but maybe about 1361 00:51:40,790 --> 00:51:38,160 like 20 minutes of battering charge so 1362 00:51:42,950 --> 00:51:40,800 you could go about 50 or 60 miles 1363 00:51:44,870 --> 00:51:42,960 so for someone who commutes to the city 1364 00:51:45,750 --> 00:51:44,880 back and forth or whatever things like 1365 00:51:48,710 --> 00:51:45,760 that 1366 00:51:50,470 --> 00:51:48,720 uh it's a it's an awesome vehicle 1367 00:51:52,790 --> 00:51:50,480 one other aspect 1368 00:51:54,230 --> 00:51:52,800 about this this thing that's in that 1369 00:51:55,750 --> 00:51:54,240 story 1370 00:51:58,069 --> 00:51:55,760 is that 1371 00:51:59,109 --> 00:51:58,079 because of the increase of this type of 1372 00:52:01,430 --> 00:51:59,119 vehicle 1373 00:52:03,430 --> 00:52:01,440 the owner points out that those tops of 1374 00:52:06,870 --> 00:52:03,440 buildings and those places where you can 1375 00:52:09,750 --> 00:52:06,880 land those are gonna become prime real 1376 00:52:13,349 --> 00:52:09,760 estate and the big companies that fly 1377 00:52:15,510 --> 00:52:13,359 tons of these basically urban air taxis 1378 00:52:18,230 --> 00:52:15,520 they're calling them are gonna scoop 1379 00:52:21,030 --> 00:52:18,240 that real estate up and people that have 1380 00:52:23,109 --> 00:52:21,040 this little one-man flying saucer may 1381 00:52:25,910 --> 00:52:23,119 not have the most ideal place to take 1382 00:52:28,470 --> 00:52:25,920 off and land from so they've designed a 1383 00:52:30,230 --> 00:52:28,480 bracket that will let you mount it to 1384 00:52:31,910 --> 00:52:30,240 the side of your building 1385 00:52:34,710 --> 00:52:31,920 so basically you could be in your 1386 00:52:38,309 --> 00:52:34,720 skyscraper open the window climb into 1387 00:52:41,510 --> 00:52:38,319 your uh one-man slime saucer go to your 1388 00:52:43,910 --> 00:52:41,520 destination and when you return it will 1389 00:52:46,069 --> 00:52:43,920 land in that bracket and let you step 1390 00:52:48,549 --> 00:52:46,079 back out and they point out that it's 1391 00:52:51,270 --> 00:52:48,559 basically like batman hanging off the uh 1392 00:52:53,349 --> 00:52:51,280 off the side of the building uh vehicle 1393 00:52:55,670 --> 00:52:53,359 so yeah i think i concluded the article 1394 00:52:57,670 --> 00:52:55,680 by saying you fly like superman you hang 1395 00:52:59,990 --> 00:52:57,680 on a building like batman and it's in 1396 00:53:01,589 --> 00:53:00,000 your own flying saucer so yeah i'll take 1397 00:53:04,069 --> 00:53:01,599 one first 1398 00:53:06,549 --> 00:53:04,079 sold brother anything to get me to work 1399 00:53:08,470 --> 00:53:06,559 quicker um well i'm gonna play um a 1400 00:53:11,750 --> 00:53:08,480 brief video of one of the prototypes of 1401 00:53:13,349 --> 00:53:11,760 these things um because i know 1402 00:53:16,309 --> 00:53:13,359 we'll watch the video first and then 1403 00:53:18,470 --> 00:53:16,319 comment i know these things are going to 1404 00:53:20,230 --> 00:53:18,480 be mistaken for 1405 00:53:22,150 --> 00:53:20,240 ufos we're going to get 1406 00:53:24,230 --> 00:53:22,160 videos photos of them everyone's going 1407 00:53:26,950 --> 00:53:24,240 to be sharing them on facebook saying 1408 00:53:29,430 --> 00:53:26,960 these are from alpha centauri but um 1409 00:53:32,390 --> 00:53:29,440 let's go ahead and play this little clip 1410 00:53:37,270 --> 00:53:34,630 i'm telling you man like we're gonna get 1411 00:53:39,990 --> 00:53:37,280 too many people thinking that's a legit 1412 00:53:42,069 --> 00:53:40,000 uap now it's just getting cluttered when 1413 00:53:44,069 --> 00:53:42,079 they start flying a full-size one ryan 1414 00:53:46,630 --> 00:53:44,079 you know we're gonna get photos and 1415 00:53:49,109 --> 00:53:46,640 reports and uh you know for sure 1416 00:53:51,750 --> 00:53:49,119 ugh i love it i love it well let's move 1417 00:53:54,230 --> 00:53:51,760 on to the next story over at the debrief 1418 00:53:56,950 --> 00:53:54,240 uh this one is a little more um 1419 00:53:58,309 --> 00:53:56,960 recent i believe i could be wrong 1420 00:54:01,349 --> 00:53:58,319 actually we're going to talk about new 1421 00:54:04,390 --> 00:54:01,359 telescope to search alpha centauri for 1422 00:54:06,230 --> 00:54:04,400 et's home let me read a little recap 1423 00:54:08,950 --> 00:54:06,240 here um it's hoping to launch in the 1424 00:54:11,670 --> 00:54:08,960 next two years um earth's closest 1425 00:54:13,589 --> 00:54:11,680 stellar neighbor um alpha centauri for 1426 00:54:16,950 --> 00:54:13,599 signs of exoplanets capable of 1427 00:54:19,190 --> 00:54:16,960 supporting et life so who did you talk 1428 00:54:21,190 --> 00:54:19,200 to for this one chris and yeah give us a 1429 00:54:22,630 --> 00:54:21,200 little background about this telescope 1430 00:54:24,150 --> 00:54:22,640 we're all we're hearing about now is 1431 00:54:25,030 --> 00:54:24,160 james well you know the web telescope 1432 00:54:30,390 --> 00:54:25,040 web 1433 00:54:33,510 --> 00:54:30,400 this is uh called the tullimon telescope 1434 00:54:36,710 --> 00:54:33,520 i think it's a native american name 1435 00:54:39,589 --> 00:54:36,720 for or an ancient name for that star 1436 00:54:41,430 --> 00:54:39,599 pairing that is alpha centauri and 1437 00:54:43,829 --> 00:54:41,440 basically here's 1438 00:54:46,710 --> 00:54:43,839 if we're going to look for life on 1439 00:54:49,910 --> 00:54:46,720 planets outside our solar system 1440 00:54:52,470 --> 00:54:49,920 the best first place to start 1441 00:54:54,309 --> 00:54:52,480 is the closest star to us 1442 00:54:56,069 --> 00:54:54,319 and there happens to be three stars 1443 00:54:59,109 --> 00:54:56,079 right there there's a pair known as 1444 00:55:01,990 --> 00:54:59,119 alpha centauri it's a binary star system 1445 00:55:03,829 --> 00:55:02,000 and then there's a third smaller 1446 00:55:06,069 --> 00:55:03,839 red dwarf star 1447 00:55:08,789 --> 00:55:06,079 known as proxima centauri and we've 1448 00:55:11,109 --> 00:55:08,799 already spotted a planet around proxima 1449 00:55:14,069 --> 00:55:11,119 centauri um 1450 00:55:17,109 --> 00:55:14,079 that lies within the habitable zone that 1451 00:55:18,870 --> 00:55:17,119 is probably a rocky planet uh based on 1452 00:55:20,630 --> 00:55:18,880 measurements and that that's just from 1453 00:55:22,390 --> 00:55:20,640 work from the hubble and uh other 1454 00:55:24,230 --> 00:55:22,400 telescopes so 1455 00:55:26,470 --> 00:55:24,240 we've already seen that but we saw that 1456 00:55:28,069 --> 00:55:26,480 with what's called the transit method 1457 00:55:29,270 --> 00:55:28,079 and it's what it sounds like you're 1458 00:55:31,910 --> 00:55:29,280 looking at the star through your 1459 00:55:33,990 --> 00:55:31,920 telescope and the planet goes in front 1460 00:55:36,710 --> 00:55:34,000 of it now you can't actually see that 1461 00:55:38,950 --> 00:55:36,720 movement but that planet caused the star 1462 00:55:41,349 --> 00:55:38,960 to dim a little bit because it blocks 1463 00:55:43,430 --> 00:55:41,359 some of the light as it moves in front 1464 00:55:45,750 --> 00:55:43,440 telescopes that are finely tuned enough 1465 00:55:47,190 --> 00:55:45,760 can actually see that dimming and if 1466 00:55:48,870 --> 00:55:47,200 they see it at the right rhythm and 1467 00:55:51,589 --> 00:55:48,880 often enough they can go yeah that's 1468 00:55:53,910 --> 00:55:51,599 something in orbit around that star and 1469 00:55:56,150 --> 00:55:53,920 based on the effect it has on the star 1470 00:55:58,789 --> 00:55:56,160 and some other characteristics they can 1471 00:56:01,829 --> 00:55:58,799 usually determine whether or not it's a 1472 00:56:04,150 --> 00:56:01,839 giant planet like uh you know uh jupiter 1473 00:56:05,990 --> 00:56:04,160 or saturn whether it's a mid-sized 1474 00:56:08,549 --> 00:56:06,000 planet like neptune or what they call 1475 00:56:11,750 --> 00:56:08,559 sub-neptune planets which are like earth 1476 00:56:14,549 --> 00:56:11,760 mars venus these smaller rocky planets 1477 00:56:16,309 --> 00:56:14,559 that can host life so this telescope 1478 00:56:17,750 --> 00:56:16,319 said well hey this team putting this 1479 00:56:20,549 --> 00:56:17,760 telescope i can't remember where they're 1480 00:56:21,829 --> 00:56:20,559 from um because i write a lot of stories 1481 00:56:23,829 --> 00:56:21,839 but 1482 00:56:25,990 --> 00:56:23,839 uh basically the goal is it might i 1483 00:56:27,109 --> 00:56:26,000 think maybe somewhere in new mexico or 1484 00:56:30,630 --> 00:56:27,119 arizona 1485 00:56:32,710 --> 00:56:30,640 i'm not sure so uh basically what they 1486 00:56:35,349 --> 00:56:32,720 decided was 1487 00:56:36,870 --> 00:56:35,359 let's see if there are planets 1488 00:56:38,630 --> 00:56:36,880 around 1489 00:56:41,510 --> 00:56:38,640 alpha centauri 1490 00:56:43,990 --> 00:56:41,520 using the wobble method and the wobble 1491 00:56:46,150 --> 00:56:44,000 method so if the planet if you're not 1492 00:56:48,950 --> 00:56:46,160 right in the perfect plane to see that 1493 00:56:51,829 --> 00:56:48,960 planet go across say it's orbiting the 1494 00:56:53,670 --> 00:56:51,839 star this way or at you know any number 1495 00:56:56,870 --> 00:56:53,680 of different angles that doesn't have it 1496 00:56:59,270 --> 00:56:56,880 crossed right in front of our eye line 1497 00:57:02,150 --> 00:56:59,280 you can't see it in the transit method 1498 00:57:05,030 --> 00:57:02,160 but what you can see is the star will 1499 00:57:08,230 --> 00:57:05,040 wobble as the planet goes around it or 1500 00:57:10,870 --> 00:57:08,240 planets because they will affect very 1501 00:57:13,510 --> 00:57:10,880 small effects but they will have effects 1502 00:57:14,950 --> 00:57:13,520 on that the position and orbit of the 1503 00:57:16,549 --> 00:57:14,960 star itself 1504 00:57:18,870 --> 00:57:16,559 so 1505 00:57:21,349 --> 00:57:18,880 the way you normally do that is you look 1506 00:57:23,990 --> 00:57:21,359 at that dot of light and measure it well 1507 00:57:25,910 --> 00:57:24,000 telescopes we have are not always so 1508 00:57:27,349 --> 00:57:25,920 great at doing that so what they're 1509 00:57:29,750 --> 00:57:27,359 doing is 1510 00:57:30,789 --> 00:57:29,760 something called a diffractive pupil 1511 00:57:34,230 --> 00:57:30,799 effect 1512 00:57:36,950 --> 00:57:34,240 it takes the light from that star 1513 00:57:38,390 --> 00:57:36,960 and spreads it out so it's not just one 1514 00:57:39,270 --> 00:57:38,400 little point of light but it looks like 1515 00:57:41,750 --> 00:57:39,280 a big 1516 00:57:44,230 --> 00:57:41,760 plume of a flower 1517 00:57:47,430 --> 00:57:44,240 and when the planet uh if planet or 1518 00:57:49,829 --> 00:57:47,440 planets if they exist in alpha centauri 1519 00:57:52,309 --> 00:57:49,839 are orbiting there 1520 00:57:54,470 --> 00:57:52,319 uh then it should perturb it you should 1521 00:57:55,750 --> 00:57:54,480 have the wobble effect and they think 1522 00:57:58,789 --> 00:57:55,760 it'll be much 1523 00:58:02,309 --> 00:57:58,799 easier for their telescope to spot 1524 00:58:03,750 --> 00:58:02,319 uh using that diffracted pupil effect so 1525 00:58:06,150 --> 00:58:03,760 basically 1526 00:58:08,390 --> 00:58:06,160 it's a mission to see are there planets 1527 00:58:11,030 --> 00:58:08,400 around our closest star 1528 00:58:12,150 --> 00:58:11,040 and if they are what type of planets 1529 00:58:17,030 --> 00:58:12,160 they are 1530 00:58:19,510 --> 00:58:17,040 exoplanets that fit right in the 1531 00:58:22,710 --> 00:58:19,520 habitable zone meaning the distance from 1532 00:58:23,829 --> 00:58:22,720 the star where water can uh liquid water 1533 00:58:25,990 --> 00:58:23,839 can exist 1534 00:58:28,789 --> 00:58:26,000 we think that's a key indicator of life 1535 00:58:30,710 --> 00:58:28,799 so this is a big step towards not just 1536 00:58:32,950 --> 00:58:30,720 looking for life outside 1537 00:58:35,750 --> 00:58:32,960 our solar system but looking forward to 1538 00:58:38,069 --> 00:58:35,760 literally the closest star system to us 1539 00:58:40,549 --> 00:58:38,079 to alpha centauri 1540 00:58:41,670 --> 00:58:40,559 which is crazy to think you know our 1541 00:58:44,470 --> 00:58:41,680 search for 1542 00:58:47,109 --> 00:58:44,480 um you know et life we always think oh 1543 00:58:49,670 --> 00:58:47,119 well it's got to be super far away 1544 00:58:51,510 --> 00:58:49,680 possibly interstellar even yet it could 1545 00:58:54,470 --> 00:58:51,520 be literally one of our closest 1546 00:58:56,549 --> 00:58:54,480 neighbors that's just astounding to me 1547 00:59:00,150 --> 00:58:56,559 you know and ryan i talked about this in 1548 00:59:01,990 --> 00:59:00,160 in uh in uh articles i've written but i 1549 00:59:04,150 --> 00:59:02,000 have a story coming out the next month 1550 00:59:06,710 --> 00:59:04,160 or so about a type of directed energy 1551 00:59:08,630 --> 00:59:06,720 propulsion it's basically a put a laser 1552 00:59:11,270 --> 00:59:08,640 up in space you point it at the ship you 1553 00:59:13,349 --> 00:59:11,280 wanna and you you basically push it with 1554 00:59:16,069 --> 00:59:13,359 laser light so that the ship doesn't 1555 00:59:18,789 --> 00:59:16,079 have any uh rocket fuel on it it's just 1556 00:59:21,109 --> 00:59:18,799 being pushed by uh some you know a laser 1557 00:59:23,829 --> 00:59:21,119 sitting in orbit that's pushing kind of 1558 00:59:26,630 --> 00:59:23,839 like a solar wind absolutely the exact 1559 00:59:28,710 --> 00:59:26,640 same concept as a solar sail but instead 1560 00:59:30,789 --> 00:59:28,720 of using the pressure of the sun we just 1561 00:59:32,950 --> 00:59:30,799 use a laser that we point at the craft 1562 00:59:35,349 --> 00:59:32,960 and the specially designed sail or 1563 00:59:37,589 --> 00:59:35,359 surface on the craft designed to take 1564 00:59:39,829 --> 00:59:37,599 that laser light and be pushed by it and 1565 00:59:42,470 --> 00:59:39,839 the beauty of that is as long as we have 1566 00:59:44,230 --> 00:59:42,480 power to our laser right there in orbit 1567 00:59:45,589 --> 00:59:44,240 you can just keep pushing that thing and 1568 00:59:48,230 --> 00:59:45,599 pushing that thing and pushing that 1569 00:59:50,309 --> 00:59:48,240 thing and there's some various laws of 1570 00:59:53,030 --> 00:59:50,319 physics and other things involved but 1571 00:59:54,390 --> 00:59:53,040 it's pretty realistic for us in current 1572 00:59:56,470 --> 00:59:54,400 technology 1573 00:59:58,309 --> 00:59:56,480 with the will and the money to make a 1574 01:00:00,309 --> 00:59:58,319 spacecraft that goes about 20 percent 1575 01:00:01,990 --> 01:00:00,319 the speed of light that's that's you 1576 01:00:04,549 --> 01:00:02,000 know traveling through 1577 01:00:06,549 --> 01:00:04,559 relativistic einsteinian space without 1578 01:00:08,309 --> 01:00:06,559 getting into the map of it that seems to 1579 01:00:10,230 --> 01:00:08,319 be from everyone i talked to that's the 1580 01:00:12,309 --> 01:00:10,240 limit about 20 1581 01:00:14,150 --> 01:00:12,319 but if you think about that if we're 1582 01:00:16,630 --> 01:00:14,160 looking at a star system like alva 1583 01:00:18,309 --> 01:00:16,640 centaur it's four light years away if 1584 01:00:20,630 --> 01:00:18,319 you can go twenty percent the speed of 1585 01:00:22,549 --> 01:00:20,640 light you can get there 1586 01:00:24,710 --> 01:00:22,559 in 20 years 1587 01:00:26,870 --> 01:00:24,720 right that's not too bad 1588 01:00:29,589 --> 01:00:26,880 each light year takes you five years to 1589 01:00:31,270 --> 01:00:29,599 go and you got four light years i mean 1590 01:00:33,750 --> 01:00:31,280 we send missions that you know the the 1591 01:00:36,309 --> 01:00:33,760 first mars rovers that i really followed 1592 01:00:37,910 --> 01:00:36,319 regularly were spirit and opportunity 1593 01:00:40,150 --> 01:00:37,920 they went up over 20 years ago and they 1594 01:00:42,950 --> 01:00:40,160 just quit working recently you know the 1595 01:00:44,630 --> 01:00:42,960 voyager spacecraft went up in the 70s 1596 01:00:46,630 --> 01:00:44,640 and we're still swapping signals with 1597 01:00:47,750 --> 01:00:46,640 them and they've left our solar system 1598 01:00:50,470 --> 01:00:47,760 completely 1599 01:00:52,309 --> 01:00:50,480 so the idea of sending a probe if we see 1600 01:00:54,710 --> 01:00:52,319 planets there 1601 01:00:56,069 --> 01:00:54,720 and we see planets that can support life 1602 01:00:58,549 --> 01:00:56,079 and we point one of these other 1603 01:01:00,950 --> 01:00:58,559 telescopes at those planets and see 1604 01:01:03,109 --> 01:01:00,960 elements in their atmosphere that seem 1605 01:01:05,349 --> 01:01:03,119 that there might be life there 1606 01:01:07,910 --> 01:01:05,359 it's within the range at least 1607 01:01:09,270 --> 01:01:07,920 theoretically of us sending a probe and 1608 01:01:11,030 --> 01:01:09,280 taking a picture and going what the 1609 01:01:14,470 --> 01:01:11,040 heck's going on there 1610 01:01:18,150 --> 01:01:14,480 love it that's so cool man well um let's 1611 01:01:20,470 --> 01:01:18,160 talk about another neighbor of ours now 1612 01:01:22,710 --> 01:01:20,480 you know this this planet ain't doing 1613 01:01:24,630 --> 01:01:22,720 too well let's be honest you know we we 1614 01:01:27,990 --> 01:01:24,640 have more and more signs leading to 1615 01:01:31,030 --> 01:01:28,000 global warming and catastrophes and this 1616 01:01:33,190 --> 01:01:31,040 that we're destroying our planet is what 1617 01:01:35,349 --> 01:01:33,200 we are being told by the visitors who 1618 01:01:37,430 --> 01:01:35,359 have you know come into contact with 1619 01:01:39,910 --> 01:01:37,440 people here on earth you guys gotta 1620 01:01:42,870 --> 01:01:39,920 shape up or ship out is what we hear in 1621 01:01:44,870 --> 01:01:42,880 these et contact stories and um what 1622 01:01:47,190 --> 01:01:44,880 better place to ship out to 1623 01:01:51,430 --> 01:01:47,200 than the moon and now we're learning 1624 01:01:53,510 --> 01:01:51,440 that there is oxygen on the moon and you 1625 01:01:56,789 --> 01:01:53,520 recently wrote about this how much 1626 01:02:00,150 --> 01:01:56,799 oxygen is already on the moon and will 1627 01:02:01,270 --> 01:02:00,160 we able will we ever be able to 1628 01:02:03,270 --> 01:02:01,280 basically 1629 01:02:04,630 --> 01:02:03,280 habitate the moon so yeah tell us a 1630 01:02:07,349 --> 01:02:04,640 little about this story if you don't 1631 01:02:08,309 --> 01:02:07,359 mind so uh first of all 1632 01:02:10,710 --> 01:02:08,319 um 1633 01:02:13,029 --> 01:02:10,720 when we we are causing significant 1634 01:02:14,789 --> 01:02:13,039 damage to the biosphere on earth there's 1635 01:02:16,230 --> 01:02:14,799 a good argument for that there's even 1636 01:02:18,470 --> 01:02:16,240 scientists have talked about changing 1637 01:02:19,630 --> 01:02:18,480 the current era to the anthropocene 1638 01:02:22,309 --> 01:02:19,640 which would mean 1639 01:02:24,710 --> 01:02:22,319 anthropomorphic or you know human 1640 01:02:26,789 --> 01:02:24,720 effects so like the pleistocene era or 1641 01:02:29,270 --> 01:02:26,799 the mesozoic or these other ones here 1642 01:02:31,829 --> 01:02:29,280 this will be the anthropocene so keep in 1643 01:02:34,069 --> 01:02:31,839 mind the planet earth we're not going to 1644 01:02:36,230 --> 01:02:34,079 screw the planet up the planet is the 1645 01:02:38,390 --> 01:02:36,240 planet we we're not powerful yet enough 1646 01:02:40,710 --> 01:02:38,400 to do it but 1647 01:02:43,029 --> 01:02:40,720 basically when you start a few thousand 1648 01:02:45,029 --> 01:02:43,039 meters underground and you go out to the 1649 01:02:46,069 --> 01:02:45,039 outer edges of our atmosphere that 1650 01:02:50,870 --> 01:02:46,079 little 1651 01:02:53,109 --> 01:02:50,880 you know the surface of our planet up to 1652 01:02:54,870 --> 01:02:53,119 maybe the top of mount everest right and 1653 01:02:57,670 --> 01:02:54,880 maybe down to the deepest parts of the 1654 01:02:58,710 --> 01:02:57,680 ocean that's where we live that little 1655 01:03:00,630 --> 01:02:58,720 thin 1656 01:03:02,309 --> 01:03:00,640 orange peel of the planet we can 1657 01:03:04,390 --> 01:03:02,319 definitely screw that up we definitely 1658 01:03:06,630 --> 01:03:04,400 seem to be doing damage to it 1659 01:03:08,710 --> 01:03:06,640 so the planet will be just fine uh 1660 01:03:11,029 --> 01:03:08,720 they're just the area that we live in 1661 01:03:12,950 --> 01:03:11,039 may not be there or be permanent if we 1662 01:03:14,710 --> 01:03:12,960 don't do something about it so yeah 1663 01:03:16,950 --> 01:03:14,720 there's a lot of talk by guys like elon 1664 01:03:19,349 --> 01:03:16,960 musk and other people about colonizing 1665 01:03:21,829 --> 01:03:19,359 the moon or colonizing mars 1666 01:03:23,670 --> 01:03:21,839 this study was really interesting 1667 01:03:25,589 --> 01:03:23,680 because basically what they determined 1668 01:03:27,510 --> 01:03:25,599 was 1669 01:03:29,349 --> 01:03:27,520 if you look if you go to the moon right 1670 01:03:30,950 --> 01:03:29,359 all you see is rocks and dirt right 1671 01:03:32,950 --> 01:03:30,960 that's what's there rocks and dirt they 1672 01:03:34,710 --> 01:03:32,960 call it regolith and according to 1673 01:03:37,190 --> 01:03:34,720 astronauts who walked around on the moon 1674 01:03:39,910 --> 01:03:37,200 in the 70s the crab gets everywhere it's 1675 01:03:42,069 --> 01:03:39,920 like the worst dust the worst beach sand 1676 01:03:44,470 --> 01:03:42,079 ever i mean it gets everywhere it falls 1677 01:03:47,510 --> 01:03:44,480 up everything but what's amazing about 1678 01:03:50,710 --> 01:03:47,520 that rock and that that dirt 1679 01:03:51,910 --> 01:03:50,720 is it is made up of 45 1680 01:03:53,510 --> 01:03:51,920 oxygen 1681 01:03:56,390 --> 01:03:53,520 by volume so 1682 01:03:58,549 --> 01:03:56,400 it is almost half oxygen now on earth if 1683 01:04:00,630 --> 01:03:58,559 we want to split oxygen away from other 1684 01:04:03,510 --> 01:04:00,640 molecules we use a process called 1685 01:04:05,270 --> 01:04:03,520 electrolysis like i tell people drop a 1686 01:04:06,950 --> 01:04:05,280 battery in a cup of water and you'll see 1687 01:04:08,309 --> 01:04:06,960 a little stream of bubbles coming off 1688 01:04:10,150 --> 01:04:08,319 each end and one of those is oxygen 1689 01:04:13,990 --> 01:04:10,160 one's hydrogen but it's basically an 1690 01:04:15,190 --> 01:04:14,000 electrolysis process the way we split uh 1691 01:04:17,510 --> 01:04:15,200 oxygen 1692 01:04:20,549 --> 01:04:17,520 so we have the technology 1693 01:04:23,349 --> 01:04:20,559 to split that oxygen out of those rocks 1694 01:04:25,589 --> 01:04:23,359 you got to use power to do it and so 1695 01:04:27,430 --> 01:04:25,599 there's talk of nuclear reactors or 1696 01:04:30,150 --> 01:04:27,440 solar reactors and we can talk about 1697 01:04:32,710 --> 01:04:30,160 that a little later but basically if you 1698 01:04:34,470 --> 01:04:32,720 have a mechanism on 1699 01:04:36,069 --> 01:04:34,480 the moon that can 1700 01:04:37,990 --> 01:04:36,079 you know if you have equipment to do 1701 01:04:39,109 --> 01:04:38,000 that electrolysis you can free that 1702 01:04:40,870 --> 01:04:39,119 oxygen 1703 01:04:42,630 --> 01:04:40,880 and you can use it 1704 01:04:44,710 --> 01:04:42,640 and um 1705 01:04:46,950 --> 01:04:44,720 so how much is there 1706 01:04:49,270 --> 01:04:46,960 this study basically determined that the 1707 01:04:52,069 --> 01:04:49,280 real scoopable part right the the top 1708 01:04:55,270 --> 01:04:52,079 maybe 20 30 feet or whatever covering 1709 01:04:57,990 --> 01:04:55,280 the planet has enough oxygen embedded in 1710 01:04:59,750 --> 01:04:58,000 the rocks and dirt to support the entire 1711 01:05:01,589 --> 01:04:59,760 population of earth that's about eight 1712 01:05:04,390 --> 01:05:01,599 billion people right now 1713 01:05:07,029 --> 01:05:04,400 for a hundred thousand years 1714 01:05:09,349 --> 01:05:07,039 so the bottom line is if we're going to 1715 01:05:11,270 --> 01:05:09,359 colonize the moon 1716 01:05:13,270 --> 01:05:11,280 i won't talk about terraforming because 1717 01:05:15,029 --> 01:05:13,280 it's just so far in the future and so 1718 01:05:17,910 --> 01:05:15,039 unlikely but if we're going to live in 1719 01:05:19,750 --> 01:05:17,920 caverns if we're going to live in domes 1720 01:05:22,390 --> 01:05:19,760 if humans are going to move to the moon 1721 01:05:24,710 --> 01:05:22,400 and permanently inhabited they're going 1722 01:05:27,589 --> 01:05:24,720 to need oxygen and as it turns out 1723 01:05:30,549 --> 01:05:27,599 there's just tons of in there 1724 01:05:32,950 --> 01:05:30,559 so cool man nothing i ever would have 1725 01:05:34,789 --> 01:05:32,960 expected to be me either i didn't know 1726 01:05:36,710 --> 01:05:34,799 that right i told you i read science 1727 01:05:38,870 --> 01:05:36,720 articles my whole life and if you would 1728 01:05:40,309 --> 01:05:38,880 have asked me how much oxygen is in the 1729 01:05:42,309 --> 01:05:40,319 rocks on the moon i would just i don't 1730 01:05:44,230 --> 01:05:42,319 know what one percent or so you know 1731 01:05:46,549 --> 01:05:44,240 whatever stuck to it when it rolled 1732 01:05:48,230 --> 01:05:46,559 through but no it's almost half oxygen 1733 01:05:49,029 --> 01:05:48,240 there's so much they could pull out of 1734 01:05:51,510 --> 01:05:49,039 there 1735 01:05:54,150 --> 01:05:51,520 love it love it well rodrigo has a 1736 01:05:56,309 --> 01:05:54,160 question here for you um and i'll remind 1737 01:05:58,630 --> 01:05:56,319 everyone again super chat is open if you 1738 01:06:00,870 --> 01:05:58,640 want to ask chris a question and help 1739 01:06:03,029 --> 01:06:00,880 out the show you're more than welcome um 1740 01:06:05,270 --> 01:06:03,039 but we'll take your questions anyways 1741 01:06:07,190 --> 01:06:05,280 we're not a pay-to-play here but um 1742 01:06:08,870 --> 01:06:07,200 let's see here what are chris's ideas 1743 01:06:11,589 --> 01:06:08,880 about the probability for the existence 1744 01:06:15,109 --> 01:06:11,599 of oxygen-based atmospheres carbon-based 1745 01:06:16,710 --> 01:06:15,119 life and convergent evolution in planets 1746 01:06:19,589 --> 01:06:16,720 other than earth that's a loaded 1747 01:06:22,069 --> 01:06:19,599 question but do you have anything 1748 01:06:24,789 --> 01:06:22,079 humans have done a lot of study on life 1749 01:06:27,190 --> 01:06:24,799 and for the longest time we more or less 1750 01:06:29,510 --> 01:06:27,200 felt that the vast majority of life 1751 01:06:31,829 --> 01:06:29,520 would operate uh using oxygen as its 1752 01:06:34,630 --> 01:06:31,839 catalyst still does on earth we have 1753 01:06:37,430 --> 01:06:34,640 found these things termed extremophiles 1754 01:06:39,510 --> 01:06:37,440 uh that operate uh from other you know 1755 01:06:41,190 --> 01:06:39,520 that was the big discovery or in the uh 1756 01:06:43,270 --> 01:06:41,200 atmosphere of venus 1757 01:06:44,950 --> 01:06:43,280 was they found this area where they said 1758 01:06:46,630 --> 01:06:44,960 hey if there were if there were 1759 01:06:49,029 --> 01:06:46,640 creatures like we have on earth that 1760 01:06:51,109 --> 01:06:49,039 live on phosphine gas which is type of 1761 01:06:54,230 --> 01:06:51,119 phosphorus gas if they lived on that 1762 01:06:56,150 --> 01:06:54,240 rather than oxygen here's the perfect 1763 01:06:57,910 --> 01:06:56,160 warmth and radiation everything part of 1764 01:06:59,750 --> 01:06:57,920 venus's atmosphere they would live in 1765 01:07:01,510 --> 01:06:59,760 and so we looked there and sure enough 1766 01:07:03,990 --> 01:07:01,520 there were signs of phosphine gas there 1767 01:07:05,589 --> 01:07:04,000 doesn't mean that there's life there but 1768 01:07:06,789 --> 01:07:05,599 it definitely happened to match what 1769 01:07:08,630 --> 01:07:06,799 we're looking for 1770 01:07:10,950 --> 01:07:08,640 here's what i would tell 1771 01:07:13,109 --> 01:07:10,960 here's my thought about 1772 01:07:14,549 --> 01:07:13,119 uh concurrent evolution carbon-based 1773 01:07:16,470 --> 01:07:14,559 life those sort of things on other 1774 01:07:18,230 --> 01:07:16,480 planets 1775 01:07:19,829 --> 01:07:18,240 in science fiction 1776 01:07:21,589 --> 01:07:19,839 whether you're watching star trek or 1777 01:07:23,109 --> 01:07:21,599 stargate or any of the shows i grew up 1778 01:07:25,349 --> 01:07:23,119 watching and loving 1779 01:07:28,150 --> 01:07:25,359 uh humans go to other planets all the 1780 01:07:30,150 --> 01:07:28,160 time with no masks on and you know 1781 01:07:31,670 --> 01:07:30,160 everyone speaks english or whatever you 1782 01:07:33,589 --> 01:07:31,680 know but uh 1783 01:07:36,150 --> 01:07:33,599 and everyone's pretty much human i don't 1784 01:07:38,069 --> 01:07:36,160 know about the evolution side i have my 1785 01:07:41,109 --> 01:07:38,079 feelings that 1786 01:07:44,870 --> 01:07:41,119 physics constrains evolution in such a 1787 01:07:47,109 --> 01:07:44,880 way that i wouldn't be surprised if uh 1788 01:07:49,270 --> 01:07:47,119 complex life we saw on other planets 1789 01:07:50,789 --> 01:07:49,280 stood on two legs had something the 1790 01:07:52,789 --> 01:07:50,799 equivalent of hands and fingers that 1791 01:07:55,349 --> 01:07:52,799 they could manipulate their environment 1792 01:07:57,750 --> 01:07:55,359 with have bilateral symmetry like most 1793 01:08:01,029 --> 01:07:57,760 of the land and air based uh creatures 1794 01:08:03,190 --> 01:08:01,039 on the planet earth have so i i do think 1795 01:08:05,589 --> 01:08:03,200 we might see some sort of relatively 1796 01:08:07,029 --> 01:08:05,599 similar uh evolution i wouldn't be 1797 01:08:11,990 --> 01:08:07,039 surprised about that now you talk to 1798 01:08:17,829 --> 01:08:13,589 on earth 1799 01:08:20,229 --> 01:08:17,839 we are of buy-in from this planet i mean 1800 01:08:23,430 --> 01:08:20,239 your parents create you but the material 1801 01:08:24,390 --> 01:08:23,440 your mother ingests the food and drink 1802 01:08:27,669 --> 01:08:24,400 and everything 1803 01:08:29,669 --> 01:08:27,679 that is the raw material that builds you 1804 01:08:31,590 --> 01:08:29,679 and then when you're on your own the 1805 01:08:34,390 --> 01:08:31,600 material you ingest 1806 01:08:38,630 --> 01:08:34,400 you are from this earth we are all part 1807 01:08:41,510 --> 01:08:38,640 of it and there is a huge complex system 1808 01:08:43,910 --> 01:08:41,520 of microbiology operating inside our 1809 01:08:46,229 --> 01:08:43,920 body from our gut bacteria to 1810 01:08:49,749 --> 01:08:46,239 microbiology on our skin in our blood 1811 01:08:53,110 --> 01:08:49,759 you name it we are a big collection of 1812 01:08:55,749 --> 01:08:53,120 billions of little organisms all working 1813 01:08:57,910 --> 01:08:55,759 together create this human body 1814 01:09:00,470 --> 01:08:57,920 so even if we found a planet that had 1815 01:09:03,030 --> 01:09:00,480 the exact atmosphere as ours 1816 01:09:03,990 --> 01:09:03,040 have the exact atmospheric pressure as 1817 01:09:06,229 --> 01:09:04,000 ours 1818 01:09:08,390 --> 01:09:06,239 similar enough gravity similar enough 1819 01:09:10,070 --> 01:09:08,400 radiation had enough 1820 01:09:11,829 --> 01:09:10,080 of the components that you say man we 1821 01:09:13,030 --> 01:09:11,839 could go live there it's got trees it's 1822 01:09:15,110 --> 01:09:13,040 got everything 1823 01:09:16,870 --> 01:09:15,120 more likely than not the minute you took 1824 01:09:19,590 --> 01:09:16,880 your mask off even if the air was 1825 01:09:21,990 --> 01:09:19,600 breathable the microscopic organisms on 1826 01:09:23,829 --> 01:09:22,000 that plant planet would not jibe with 1827 01:09:25,269 --> 01:09:23,839 your body and you'd be dead in weeks 1828 01:09:26,950 --> 01:09:25,279 it's pretty much what happened to the 1829 01:09:29,669 --> 01:09:26,960 native americans when christopher 1830 01:09:31,669 --> 01:09:29,679 columbus came over and 1831 01:09:33,749 --> 01:09:31,679 the vast majority of people that were 1832 01:09:35,829 --> 01:09:33,759 existing on this continent their bodies 1833 01:09:38,070 --> 01:09:35,839 just weren't adapted to the microbiology 1834 01:09:40,709 --> 01:09:38,080 and diseases being brought to them from 1835 01:09:42,950 --> 01:09:40,719 settlers on the same planet so i'm 1836 01:09:45,510 --> 01:09:42,960 dubious about our ability to live on 1837 01:09:47,669 --> 01:09:45,520 another planet as we are do i think 1838 01:09:48,550 --> 01:09:47,679 there's an ability for science down the 1839 01:09:50,550 --> 01:09:48,560 road 1840 01:09:52,390 --> 01:09:50,560 to get to a point where there's a new 1841 01:09:53,910 --> 01:09:52,400 planet you want to live on and they go 1842 01:09:56,470 --> 01:09:53,920 yeah we got to put you through like a 1843 01:09:58,310 --> 01:09:56,480 year of inoculations and microbiology 1844 01:09:59,590 --> 01:09:58,320 treatments and stuff so your body can 1845 01:10:02,310 --> 01:09:59,600 live there but yeah once we're done 1846 01:10:04,229 --> 01:10:02,320 you'll be able to live there so yeah 1847 01:10:06,149 --> 01:10:04,239 maybe i'm not sure if that's the exact 1848 01:10:08,630 --> 01:10:06,159 question that was being asked but that's 1849 01:10:10,630 --> 01:10:08,640 my take on it i i love that i never 1850 01:10:13,030 --> 01:10:10,640 would have thought yeah like even if 1851 01:10:16,070 --> 01:10:13,040 everything was the same every the carbon 1852 01:10:18,189 --> 01:10:16,080 makeup everything about the planet um 1853 01:10:21,350 --> 01:10:18,199 that it's that minuscule 1854 01:10:25,270 --> 01:10:21,360 microscopic stuff that could really be 1855 01:10:29,510 --> 01:10:27,510 you have to take earth with you if you 1856 01:10:32,070 --> 01:10:29,520 want to be an earthling living somewhere 1857 01:10:34,229 --> 01:10:32,080 else whether it's in a habitat you know 1858 01:10:36,630 --> 01:10:34,239 in the habitat on the international 1859 01:10:38,229 --> 01:10:36,640 space station a habitat on the moon a 1860 01:10:40,229 --> 01:10:38,239 habitat on mars 1861 01:10:41,950 --> 01:10:40,239 we will essentially have to foster an 1862 01:10:44,790 --> 01:10:41,960 environment that has those 1863 01:10:47,510 --> 01:10:44,800 microorganisms so when we eat food we're 1864 01:10:49,910 --> 01:10:47,520 getting that bacteria that digests the 1865 01:10:51,510 --> 01:10:49,920 food the way you want to that works on 1866 01:10:53,669 --> 01:10:51,520 your blood and your brain and everything 1867 01:10:55,750 --> 01:10:53,679 else in your body so yeah whether we 1868 01:10:58,709 --> 01:10:55,760 like it or not we're connected to this 1869 01:11:00,709 --> 01:10:58,719 planet as biological beings 1870 01:11:01,910 --> 01:11:00,719 do you think we're from here chris do 1871 01:11:05,830 --> 01:11:01,920 you think we 1872 01:11:08,390 --> 01:11:05,840 from somewhere else i gotta ask i know 1873 01:11:10,070 --> 01:11:08,400 it's uh oh yeah no so i tell people this 1874 01:11:11,510 --> 01:11:10,080 all the time so there's a zero to one 1875 01:11:13,590 --> 01:11:11,520 argument and there's a one to now 1876 01:11:16,709 --> 01:11:13,600 argument so zero to one is what is the 1877 01:11:20,310 --> 01:11:16,719 origin of life and one to now is 1878 01:11:22,310 --> 01:11:20,320 microscopic organism evolving to us i'm 1879 01:11:25,110 --> 01:11:22,320 very comfortable with one to now i think 1880 01:11:27,669 --> 01:11:25,120 that evolution just is we see it 1881 01:11:29,030 --> 01:11:27,679 microbiology we see it with viruses we 1882 01:11:32,630 --> 01:11:29,040 see i mean 1883 01:11:34,709 --> 01:11:32,640 all dogs came from one wolf about 10 000 1884 01:11:36,630 --> 01:11:34,719 years ago and now look at all the 1885 01:11:39,350 --> 01:11:36,640 different dogs you have and that's just 1886 01:11:41,590 --> 01:11:39,360 evolution over 10 000 years of some 1887 01:11:45,510 --> 01:11:41,600 traits being selected other traits not 1888 01:11:47,830 --> 01:11:45,520 being selected uh things like uh lactose 1889 01:11:49,910 --> 01:11:47,840 intolerance things like that that we can 1890 01:11:52,709 --> 01:11:49,920 actually see where it came into our 1891 01:11:54,550 --> 01:11:52,719 genome and evolved over time so i'm very 1892 01:11:57,189 --> 01:11:54,560 comfortable with the idea 1893 01:11:59,270 --> 01:11:57,199 that everyday humans walking around uh 1894 01:12:01,990 --> 01:11:59,280 evolved from apes which evolved from 1895 01:12:03,990 --> 01:12:02,000 proto-apes which evolved from uh you 1896 01:12:05,830 --> 01:12:04,000 know uh 1897 01:12:08,310 --> 01:12:05,840 simple organ all the way back to that 1898 01:12:10,470 --> 01:12:08,320 single-celled organism now the idea 1899 01:12:12,630 --> 01:12:10,480 that's put out in the movie prometheus i 1900 01:12:15,590 --> 01:12:12,640 think it is where basically an alien 1901 01:12:17,430 --> 01:12:15,600 organism donated their dna as that 1902 01:12:20,950 --> 01:12:17,440 starting block 1903 01:12:24,229 --> 01:12:20,960 and that is the zero to the one the 1904 01:12:25,910 --> 01:12:24,239 inert planet of rock water and minerals 1905 01:12:28,870 --> 01:12:25,920 that has no life 1906 01:12:30,470 --> 01:12:28,880 to that first spark of life that zero 1907 01:12:33,270 --> 01:12:30,480 life to life 1908 01:12:35,110 --> 01:12:33,280 once you have life evolution just takes 1909 01:12:37,270 --> 01:12:35,120 over and life goes where it goes based 1910 01:12:38,950 --> 01:12:37,280 on environment in my opinion what i've 1911 01:12:41,750 --> 01:12:38,960 seen from science environmental 1912 01:12:44,709 --> 01:12:41,760 influences uh what you eat what you do 1913 01:12:47,510 --> 01:12:44,719 uh but for all forms of life 1914 01:12:48,470 --> 01:12:47,520 and that evolution takes place we see 1915 01:12:50,630 --> 01:12:48,480 uh 1916 01:12:52,310 --> 01:12:50,640 animals that are identical that we can 1917 01:12:53,990 --> 01:12:52,320 see tree squirrels that are virtually 1918 01:12:56,229 --> 01:12:54,000 genetically identical live in two 1919 01:12:58,470 --> 01:12:56,239 different habitats and over a couple of 1920 01:13:00,149 --> 01:12:58,480 hundred years these three squirrels can 1921 01:13:01,669 --> 01:13:00,159 only this type of nut and these ones 1922 01:13:03,910 --> 01:13:01,679 can't eat that type of nut or it makes 1923 01:13:06,310 --> 01:13:03,920 them sick or all these other just your 1924 01:13:08,870 --> 01:13:06,320 bodies constantly and biology is 1925 01:13:09,830 --> 01:13:08,880 constantly adapting so 1926 01:13:12,390 --> 01:13:09,840 um 1927 01:13:14,870 --> 01:13:12,400 who who who put the life here right like 1928 01:13:17,350 --> 01:13:14,880 was it god is it a simulation was it 1929 01:13:19,350 --> 01:13:17,360 aliens i don't know you know we still 1930 01:13:22,470 --> 01:13:19,360 haven't in a lab been able to take 1931 01:13:24,310 --> 01:13:22,480 lifeless matter and throw the right 1932 01:13:26,550 --> 01:13:24,320 amount of electricity and other stuff 1933 01:13:29,030 --> 01:13:26,560 and like dr frankenstein go okay we 1934 01:13:30,950 --> 01:13:29,040 created a living cell from non-living 1935 01:13:33,590 --> 01:13:30,960 material we just haven't done that yet 1936 01:13:35,830 --> 01:13:33,600 and we have had no success trying 1937 01:13:37,590 --> 01:13:35,840 but once you have something living 1938 01:13:39,669 --> 01:13:37,600 watching it compete in the environment 1939 01:13:42,229 --> 01:13:39,679 to gather resources to use energy 1940 01:13:44,390 --> 01:13:42,239 efficiently to replicate to create more 1941 01:13:46,790 --> 01:13:44,400 of itself and over time evolve to a more 1942 01:13:48,550 --> 01:13:46,800 sophisticated life form that's just 1943 01:13:51,590 --> 01:13:48,560 happens all day every day happens all 1944 01:13:53,110 --> 01:13:51,600 around us and i'm highly confident that 1945 01:13:55,510 --> 01:13:53,120 there's enough in the archaeological 1946 01:13:57,830 --> 01:13:55,520 record in the biological record you can 1947 01:13:59,590 --> 01:13:57,840 find dna in your own dna from fishes i 1948 01:14:01,510 --> 01:13:59,600 mean we can find stuff from the most 1949 01:14:03,830 --> 01:14:01,520 ancient of beings that just don't 1950 01:14:07,270 --> 01:14:03,840 express anymore because those aren't the 1951 01:14:09,590 --> 01:14:07,280 dna uh strands that are chosen by 1952 01:14:10,709 --> 01:14:09,600 you know biology to express themselves 1953 01:14:12,630 --> 01:14:10,719 so 1954 01:14:15,110 --> 01:14:12,640 interesting we are 1955 01:14:18,229 --> 01:14:15,120 again we are the greatest and biggest 1956 01:14:20,790 --> 01:14:18,239 reality competition show for all other 1957 01:14:23,189 --> 01:14:20,800 life out there in the universe i i love 1958 01:14:25,510 --> 01:14:23,199 that why wouldn't we be i'm a firm 1959 01:14:27,750 --> 01:14:25,520 believer that the fair my paradox has it 1960 01:14:29,430 --> 01:14:27,760 backwards that if there's intelligent 1961 01:14:31,430 --> 01:14:29,440 life that's even one minute more 1962 01:14:34,470 --> 01:14:31,440 advanced than us the last thing they 1963 01:14:37,030 --> 01:14:34,480 want to do is interact with us 1964 01:14:38,550 --> 01:14:37,040 and not for any weird safety humans 1965 01:14:40,870 --> 01:14:38,560 might blow us up although we are pretty 1966 01:14:43,510 --> 01:14:40,880 stupid and blow stuff up but 1967 01:14:46,709 --> 01:14:43,520 more from the sense of the most value we 1968 01:14:50,070 --> 01:14:46,719 offer is look at us look at this planet 1969 01:14:51,910 --> 01:14:50,080 and it's a scientific analysis the the 1970 01:14:53,110 --> 01:14:51,920 most value we would offer in intelligent 1971 01:14:57,030 --> 01:14:53,120 species 1972 01:14:59,110 --> 01:14:57,040 is going back in time and looking at a a 1973 01:15:01,669 --> 01:14:59,120 place in time where 1974 01:15:03,430 --> 01:15:01,679 200 years ago we had no electricity the 1975 01:15:04,550 --> 01:15:03,440 most sophisticated technology was like a 1976 01:15:06,790 --> 01:15:04,560 bicycle 1977 01:15:09,510 --> 01:15:06,800 and now we're flying around in space and 1978 01:15:11,910 --> 01:15:09,520 talking about a 20-year mission to alpha 1979 01:15:13,669 --> 01:15:11,920 centauri right so 1980 01:15:16,070 --> 01:15:13,679 this is the most interesting time to 1981 01:15:17,590 --> 01:15:16,080 watch humans and say hey do they maybe 1982 01:15:19,270 --> 01:15:17,600 it's just the textbook they're like oh 1983 01:15:20,950 --> 01:15:19,280 yeah just 1984 01:15:22,630 --> 01:15:20,960 blow themselves up so we're going to 1985 01:15:24,870 --> 01:15:22,640 keep watching until they blow themselves 1986 01:15:26,950 --> 01:15:24,880 up because that's interesting or 1987 01:15:30,070 --> 01:15:26,960 this is the point and we get past the 1988 01:15:32,990 --> 01:15:30,080 great filter and we end up as a 1989 01:15:35,189 --> 01:15:33,000 you know interstellar 1990 01:15:37,350 --> 01:15:35,199 non-warfaring modern 1991 01:15:39,510 --> 01:15:37,360 whatever species that is and that's my 1992 01:15:42,550 --> 01:15:39,520 star trek hope i'm not dystopian i'm 1993 01:15:45,590 --> 01:15:42,560 utopian i still think we can get there 1994 01:15:49,030 --> 01:15:45,600 love it man yeah let's keep our channel 1995 01:15:51,430 --> 01:15:49,040 on the screen for all out there for sure 1996 01:15:53,350 --> 01:15:51,440 well let's say hello to uh we got the 1997 01:15:55,110 --> 01:15:53,360

01:16:13,270 --> 01:16:11,280 to uh the uh 2007 01:16:15,669 --> 01:16:13,280 skinwalkers at the pentagon book that 2008 01:16:21,430 --> 01:16:15,679 just came up hey matthew riots here one 2009 01:16:26,390 --> 01:16:23,669 um let me see i think i got everyone oh 2010 01:16:28,390 --> 01:16:26,400 we actually have someone named uh mr han 2011 01:16:30,630 --> 01:16:28,400 solo i love that 2012 01:16:32,630 --> 01:16:30,640 i love it um hey rodrigo's got a good 2013 01:16:34,550 --> 01:16:32,640 question here again dune presents the 2014 01:16:36,550 --> 01:16:34,560 idea of folding space 2015 01:16:37,990 --> 01:16:36,560 and the navigator evolved humans who can 2016 01:16:40,149 --> 01:16:38,000 pilot the ship's 2017 01:16:42,229 --> 01:16:40,159 thought hyper advanced calculations does 2018 01:16:44,709 --> 01:16:42,239 chris see something like that in our 2019 01:16:46,709 --> 01:16:44,719 future interesting so rodrigo i wrote an 2020 01:16:49,270 --> 01:16:46,719 article for the debrief about two weeks 2021 01:16:52,310 --> 01:16:49,280 ago i think and i interviewed dr kevin 2022 01:16:54,149 --> 01:16:52,320 grazer and dr kevin grazer along with 2023 01:16:55,350 --> 01:16:54,159 being the consultant on movies like 2024 01:16:58,790 --> 01:16:55,360 gravity 2025 01:17:00,310 --> 01:16:58,800 and um a tv a number of science fiction 2026 01:17:01,270 --> 01:17:00,320 tv shows 2027 01:17:03,830 --> 01:17:01,280 um 2028 01:17:06,390 --> 01:17:03,840 he wrote a book or i'm sorry he edited a 2029 01:17:10,550 --> 01:17:06,400 book uh it's under his name as the 2030 01:17:12,470 --> 01:17:10,560 writer called the the science of doom 2031 01:17:14,310 --> 01:17:12,480 and what he did was he reached out to 2032 01:17:15,430 --> 01:17:14,320 scientists in all these different areas 2033 01:17:17,510 --> 01:17:15,440 and had them 2034 01:17:21,030 --> 01:17:17,520 basically they put a book together of 2035 01:17:22,390 --> 01:17:21,040 the sciences that are in that uh in that 2036 01:17:24,870 --> 01:17:22,400 book series 2037 01:17:27,110 --> 01:17:24,880 and so i went ahead 2038 01:17:28,550 --> 01:17:27,120 and i uh 2039 01:17:31,750 --> 01:17:28,560 i interviewed him 2040 01:17:34,149 --> 01:17:31,760 and i wrote about it and the very last 2041 01:17:35,910 --> 01:17:34,159 segment of that article i addressed 2042 01:17:37,590 --> 01:17:35,920 folding space 2043 01:17:39,830 --> 01:17:37,600 and he had a very interesting quote 2044 01:17:42,550 --> 01:17:39,840 where he said to me he said chris to me 2045 01:17:44,870 --> 01:17:42,560 folding space is exactly what albert 2046 01:17:47,110 --> 01:17:44,880 einstein was talking about when he was 2047 01:17:48,870 --> 01:17:47,120 talking about the idea of 2048 01:17:50,630 --> 01:17:48,880 uh 2049 01:17:53,750 --> 01:17:50,640 using gravity 2050 01:17:56,390 --> 01:17:53,760 to move space closer together so your 2051 01:17:57,669 --> 01:17:56,400 travel distance is a lot shorter 2052 01:17:58,630 --> 01:17:57,679 and 2053 01:18:00,630 --> 01:17:58,640 i i 2054 01:18:03,590 --> 01:18:00,640 basically in that article i said so if 2055 01:18:05,750 --> 01:18:03,600 you combine the idea of a remote viewer 2056 01:18:06,790 --> 01:18:05,760 of somebody who psychically has the 2057 01:18:09,669 --> 01:18:06,800 ability 2058 01:18:11,750 --> 01:18:09,679 if such a thing exists to envision a 2059 01:18:14,149 --> 01:18:11,760 remote location 2060 01:18:16,229 --> 01:18:14,159 and you have people in a ship that's 2061 01:18:18,870 --> 01:18:16,239 designed to get there 2062 01:18:21,750 --> 01:18:18,880 could you meld those two phenomena 2063 01:18:23,750 --> 01:18:21,760 together and come up with a dune style 2064 01:18:25,350 --> 01:18:23,760 folding space drive 2065 01:18:27,750 --> 01:18:25,360 i don't know that it's something on the 2066 01:18:30,790 --> 01:18:27,760 horizon i can't tell you that 2067 01:18:32,550 --> 01:18:30,800 warp drives in and of themself 2068 01:18:34,630 --> 01:18:32,560 is something that's being worked on by a 2069 01:18:37,189 --> 01:18:34,640 lot of different researchers at least in 2070 01:18:39,590 --> 01:18:37,199 theory and as everyone knows who's in my 2071 01:18:41,990 --> 01:18:39,600 uh twitter dms for the last month and a 2072 01:18:44,070 --> 01:18:42,000 half i have a big warp bubble story 2073 01:18:46,310 --> 01:18:44,080 coming out about that yeah 2074 01:18:49,030 --> 01:18:46,320 as far as folding space 2075 01:18:50,630 --> 01:18:49,040 uh go go look at what he's dr grazer 2076 01:18:51,990 --> 01:18:50,640 says in my article i have some good 2077 01:18:53,830 --> 01:18:52,000 quotes from him 2078 01:18:55,350 --> 01:18:53,840 and uh if you're really interested go 2079 01:18:57,990 --> 01:18:55,360 read his book because there's a whole 2080 01:18:59,830 --> 01:18:58,000 section by scientists uh pretty much 2081 01:19:02,630 --> 01:18:59,840 addressing that in a much more complex 2082 01:19:04,470 --> 01:19:02,640 way so for my personal feeling it's not 2083 01:19:06,149 --> 01:19:04,480 something that's right around the corner 2084 01:19:09,189 --> 01:19:06,159 but it is something that you could draw 2085 01:19:12,310 --> 01:19:09,199 a line to from warp technology and 2086 01:19:14,870 --> 01:19:12,320 remote viewing and see that it's not 2087 01:19:17,750 --> 01:19:14,880 the most unrealistic 2088 01:19:20,070 --> 01:19:17,760 if somewhat unlikely approach 2089 01:19:21,030 --> 01:19:20,080 interesting i love that bringing kind of 2090 01:19:23,430 --> 01:19:21,040 the uh 2091 01:19:25,910 --> 01:19:23,440 you know the paranormal into 2092 01:19:27,510 --> 01:19:25,920 the science or pseudoscience if you want 2093 01:19:29,910 --> 01:19:27,520 to look at it that way but you know what 2094 01:19:35,590 --> 01:19:32,229 yeah when frank herbert wrote dune and 2095 01:19:37,910 --> 01:19:35,600 he talks about that spice that magical 2096 01:19:39,910 --> 01:19:37,920 chemical that lets the navigators do 2097 01:19:42,149 --> 01:19:39,920 what they do that lets people see in the 2098 01:19:44,149 --> 01:19:42,159 future things like that he was really 2099 01:19:45,830 --> 01:19:44,159 like interested in writing about 2100 01:19:48,149 --> 01:19:45,840 mushrooms psychedelic mushrooms that 2101 01:19:49,750 --> 01:19:48,159 were really popular in the 60s and there 2102 01:19:51,510 --> 01:19:49,760 was all i haven't read it but there was 2103 01:19:53,510 --> 01:19:51,520 a whole feature story on the debrief one 2104 01:19:56,229 --> 01:19:53,520 of the other writers wrote about that 2105 01:19:58,149 --> 01:19:56,239 and it basically said uh herbert was 2106 01:19:59,510 --> 01:19:58,159 talking about mushrooms and the reason i 2107 01:20:01,270 --> 01:19:59,520 clarify i haven't read it because i 2108 01:20:03,110 --> 01:20:01,280 don't know if he was taking him or he 2109 01:20:05,189 --> 01:20:03,120 was writing about people taking them and 2110 01:20:06,950 --> 01:20:05,199 i don't want to i don't want to be the 2111 01:20:09,270 --> 01:20:06,960 name of my favorite science fiction 2112 01:20:11,669 --> 01:20:09,280 writers could be both we we don't know 2113 01:20:13,110 --> 01:20:11,679 could be both well hey han mr han solo 2114 01:20:16,950 --> 01:20:13,120 says speaking of blowing stuff up can i 2115 01:20:19,990 --> 01:20:16,960 have my blaster pack chris right exactly 2116 01:20:22,229 --> 01:20:20,000 that's right i love that um well let's 2117 01:20:24,790 --> 01:20:22,239 move on oh sorry go ahead i'm fired 2118 01:20:27,110 --> 01:20:24,800 first just on fire oh you're one of 2119 01:20:29,110 --> 01:20:27,120 those are you i'm just saying i was in 2120 01:20:30,790 --> 01:20:29,120 the theater man i thought that was the 2121 01:20:33,110 --> 01:20:30,800 coolest thing ever that he fired first 2122 01:20:35,030 --> 01:20:33,120 it was like the the first hero antihero 2123 01:20:36,709 --> 01:20:35,040 he was actually just a little bit of bad 2124 01:20:39,030 --> 01:20:36,719 guy in that good guy 2125 01:20:41,430 --> 01:20:39,040 yeah yeah have they ever truly 2126 01:20:44,830 --> 01:20:41,440 determined that has it been like 2127 01:20:46,870 --> 01:20:44,840 um oh yeah i mean come forward and said 2128 01:20:49,189 --> 01:20:46,880 yes there's a whole controversy with 2129 01:20:51,110 --> 01:20:49,199 george lucas in those first three movies 2130 01:20:53,590 --> 01:20:51,120 but basically when he went back and he 2131 01:20:55,510 --> 01:20:53,600 re-edited them all and he put in the 2132 01:20:58,470 --> 01:20:55,520 video graphics and he potentially 2133 01:21:00,149 --> 01:20:58,480 changed that scene he added the episode 2134 01:21:02,149 --> 01:21:00,159 four thing in the opening credits it 2135 01:21:04,629 --> 01:21:02,159 used to just say star wars the the 2136 01:21:07,669 --> 01:21:04,639 episode four new hope wasn't up there he 2137 01:21:09,590 --> 01:21:07,679 added a lot of that so the um i want to 2138 01:21:11,510 --> 01:21:09,600 get this right i think it's the national 2139 01:21:13,189 --> 01:21:11,520 film archive or the library of congress 2140 01:21:15,189 --> 01:21:13,199 it might be the national film archive 2141 01:21:17,990 --> 01:21:15,199 within the library of congress 2142 01:21:20,870 --> 01:21:18,000 um has asked him for copies of the first 2143 01:21:22,629 --> 01:21:20,880 three movies because what they do is 2144 01:21:24,709 --> 01:21:22,639 and you get you give them the actual 2145 01:21:27,590 --> 01:21:24,719 real like ones that ran in the theater 2146 01:21:29,030 --> 01:21:27,600 the physical film in the canister and 2147 01:21:30,470 --> 01:21:29,040 you know obviously there were thousands 2148 01:21:32,390 --> 01:21:30,480 of those that went out to theaters 2149 01:21:33,990 --> 01:21:32,400 around the country and around the world 2150 01:21:35,910 --> 01:21:34,000 and they say as the 2151 01:21:37,910 --> 01:21:35,920 as the filmmaker you have to provide us 2152 01:21:40,709 --> 01:21:37,920 one of those and we'll put them in the 2153 01:21:41,830 --> 01:21:40,719 archive to keep a permanent copy and he 2154 01:21:43,830 --> 01:21:41,840 said no 2155 01:21:46,550 --> 01:21:43,840 because he doesn't want to provide those 2156 01:21:49,270 --> 01:21:46,560 original films he wants history to 2157 01:21:51,430 --> 01:21:49,280 remember the the edited ones he did 2158 01:21:53,350 --> 01:21:51,440 later that have the silly characters 2159 01:21:55,510 --> 01:21:53,360 added in have the scene with job the hut 2160 01:21:57,910 --> 01:21:55,520 put back in the original all of these 2161 01:21:59,590 --> 01:21:57,920 things that he added in it depends on 2162 01:22:01,830 --> 01:21:59,600 your taste he always felt like they were 2163 01:22:03,590 --> 01:22:01,840 made for kids and i always tell people i 2164 01:22:06,790 --> 01:22:03,600 fell in love with the movies as a little 2165 01:22:08,470 --> 01:22:06,800 kid so i can't argue that but it does 2166 01:22:10,550 --> 01:22:08,480 feel like uh 2167 01:22:12,390 --> 01:22:10,560 it does feel like you know the original 2168 01:22:14,149 --> 01:22:12,400 artist went back and painted a mustache 2169 01:22:16,310 --> 01:22:14,159 on the mona lisa and said ah it's 2170 01:22:18,709 --> 01:22:16,320 finally finished 2171 01:22:20,629 --> 01:22:18,719 exactly exactly yeah there is some 2172 01:22:22,709 --> 01:22:20,639 controversy about that for sure he will 2173 01:22:25,350 --> 01:22:22,719 not provide those original copies there 2174 01:22:26,790 --> 01:22:25,360 is some for people that uh stream stuff 2175 01:22:29,510 --> 01:22:26,800 there used to be a copy running around 2176 01:22:31,350 --> 01:22:29,520 online a number of years back where some 2177 01:22:33,030 --> 01:22:31,360 guy took all the original 2178 01:22:35,189 --> 01:22:33,040 blu-ray and 2179 01:22:37,270 --> 01:22:35,199 laserdisc or whatever and kind of made 2180 01:22:39,669 --> 01:22:37,280 an original one but uh 2181 01:22:41,590 --> 01:22:39,679 yeah lucas people have too much time 2182 01:22:44,070 --> 01:22:41,600 fought that truth from being out there 2183 01:22:45,990 --> 01:22:44,080 that han fired first 2184 01:22:48,310 --> 01:22:46,000 that's fair enough that's fair enough 2185 01:22:50,149 --> 01:22:48,320 well uh i mean i had a gun pointed at 2186 01:22:52,310 --> 01:22:50,159 him i don't know but dude 2187 01:22:55,110 --> 01:22:52,320 it is something if there's a gun pointed 2188 01:22:57,030 --> 01:22:55,120 at you and somebody's telling you uh the 2189 01:22:59,110 --> 01:22:57,040 party's over buddy i don't know that 2190 01:23:00,950 --> 01:22:59,120 firing first isn't still self-defense i 2191 01:23:03,510 --> 01:23:00,960 mean i don't mean to get all political 2192 01:23:05,750 --> 01:23:03,520 in the star wars pyramid 2193 01:23:07,750 --> 01:23:05,760 hey hey they went political in those 2194 01:23:09,910 --> 01:23:07,760 prequels man which have really grown on 2195 01:23:11,750 --> 01:23:09,920 me yeah prequels have definitely grown 2196 01:23:12,790 --> 01:23:11,760 on me first yeah they take time because 2197 01:23:15,590 --> 01:23:12,800 you're you're seeing something 2198 01:23:16,470 --> 01:23:15,600 completely different but yeah i i i've 2199 01:23:18,470 --> 01:23:16,480 i've 2200 01:23:21,189 --> 01:23:18,480 i moved into the zone of liking all the 2201 01:23:22,470 --> 01:23:21,199 star wars movies at some level uh for 2202 01:23:24,310 --> 01:23:22,480 themselves 2203 01:23:26,709 --> 01:23:24,320 really found myself liking rogue one 2204 01:23:29,110 --> 01:23:26,719 more than i thought after all my god 2205 01:23:30,870 --> 01:23:29,120 dude i love that movie so much so 2206 01:23:33,510 --> 01:23:30,880 underrated yeah i didn't love it the 2207 01:23:35,270 --> 01:23:33,520 first time i saw it and yeah 2208 01:23:37,590 --> 01:23:35,280 but yeah that lasts 2209 01:23:39,669 --> 01:23:37,600 one of those last scenes with vader 2210 01:23:40,790 --> 01:23:39,679 again spoiler alert if you haven't seen 2211 01:23:43,189 --> 01:23:40,800 rogue one 2212 01:23:45,350 --> 01:23:43,199 vader at his most badass are you always

2216 01:23:55,030 --> 01:23:52,000 people always said well hey how are you 2217 01:23:57,510 --> 01:23:55,040 know the three prequels kind of ended 2218 01:24:00,149 --> 01:23:57,520 with him becoming vader right like he's 2219 01:24:02,870 --> 01:24:00,159 darth vader kind of the end of uh what 2220 01:24:04,709 --> 01:24:02,880 is that the revenge of the sith 2221 01:24:06,470 --> 01:24:04,719 right and a lot of people were 2222 01:24:08,310 --> 01:24:06,480 complaining and i seem to remember a 2223 01:24:10,709 --> 01:24:08,320 quote from lucas at the time saying 2224 01:24:12,629 -->

remember we all started on something 2250 01:25:02,310 --> 01:25:01,040 like a signal yeah and that all got 2251 01:25:04,550 --> 01:25:02,320 dumped and somewhere along the way 2252 01:25:07,189 --> 01:25:04,560 christina gomez came in and said hey 2253 01:25:09,669 --> 01:25:07,199 dummies discord's free and we can have a 2254 01:25:12,550 --> 01:25:09,679 private meeting room there so 2255 01:25:14,070 --> 01:25:12,560 yep yep yep and we haven't been waiting 2256 01:25:15,990 --> 01:25:14,080 for you to show up 2257 01:25:17,430 --> 01:25:16,000 i'm coming i'm on my way i know i 2258 01:25:18,709 --> 01:25:17,440 haven't written at the debrief in a 2259 01:25:19,990 --> 01:25:18,719 while but 2260 01:25:23,750 --> 01:25:20,000 i will say 2261 01:25:25,510 --> 01:25:23,760 i wrote a huge piece for the debrief 2262 01:25:28,470 --> 01:25:25,520 that hopefully 2263 01:25:31,030 --> 01:25:28,480 is going to get a um special unveiling 2264 01:25:33,430 --> 01:25:31,040 in a top secret project yet to be 2265 01:25:36,149 --> 01:25:33,440 announced by the debris yes uh 2266 01:25:38,470 --> 01:25:36,159 uh yes mr mr hanks 2267 01:25:45,110 --> 01:25:38,480 has passed along that he has received 2268 01:25:49,110 --> 01:25:47,430 yes top secret project coming earlier 2269 01:25:51,270 --> 01:25:49,120 you're coming your way at the debrief 2270 01:25:53,350 --> 01:25:51,280 2022. i've been working on this article 2271 01:25:55,270 --> 01:25:53,360 for over a year i've pissed off some 2272 01:25:57,590 --> 01:25:55,280 people at the defense department and the 2273 01:26:00,550 --> 01:25:57,600 navy but um it's gonna be worth it it's 2274 01:26:01,430 --> 01:26:00,560 gonna be worth it let's move on my man 2275 01:26:02,709 --> 01:26:01,440 to 2276 01:26:06,070 --> 01:26:02,719 nuclear 2277 01:26:09,110 --> 01:26:06,080 reactors nasa wants patel to put a 2278 01:26:11,669 --> 01:26:09,120 nuclear reactor on the moon this is 2279 01:26:14,470 --> 01:26:11,679 terrifying tell me what's going on chris 2280 01:26:16,870 --> 01:26:14,480 oh so there was a space treaty back in 2281 01:26:18,950 --> 01:26:16,880 the 70s 80s whenever it was that pretty 2282 01:26:20,310 --> 01:26:18,960 much said we can't put nuclear weapons 2283 01:26:22,390 --> 01:26:20,320 in space 2284 01:26:25,750 --> 01:26:22,400 but it didn't eliminate the idea of 2285 01:26:28,310 --> 01:26:25,760 nuclear reactors and there have been 2286 01:26:30,390 --> 01:26:28,320 various satellites and other things very 2287 01:26:32,790 --> 01:26:30,400 few but over the years 2288 01:26:35,270 --> 01:26:32,800 that have included nuclear fuel with 2289 01:26:38,470 --> 01:26:35,280 some sort of another this is the first 2290 01:26:40,629 --> 01:26:38,480 real talk of putting them on mars or 2291 01:26:47,990 --> 01:26:40,639 putting them on the moon yeah there's 2292 01:26:53,030 --> 01:26:51,430 and said look if we're going to colonize 2293 01:26:54,470 --> 01:26:53,040 the moon and we're going to colonize 2294 01:26:57,430 --> 01:26:54,480 mars 2295 01:26:59,750 --> 01:26:57,440 shipping 8 million solar panels up there 2296 01:27:02,390 --> 01:26:59,760 to gather that bleak sunlight coming in 2297 01:27:04,390 --> 01:27:02,400 ain't going to do it we're going to need 2298 01:27:06,070 --> 01:27:04,400 resident power we're gonna need our own 2299 01:27:08,870 --> 01:27:06,080 power and 2300 01:27:11,189 --> 01:27:08,880 pretty much every other form of power is 2301 01:27:14,070 --> 01:27:11,199 just doesn't crank enough juice out for 2302 01:27:16,390 --> 01:27:14,080 the weight even the densest power rocket 2303 01:27:18,550 --> 01:27:16,400 fuels and things you just would have to 2304 01:27:21,350 --> 01:27:18,560 ship tons and tons and tons of it to the 2305 01:27:23,669 --> 01:27:21,360 moon to run any sort of habitat but if 2306 01:27:25,590 --> 01:27:23,679 you have a couple of nuclear generators 2307 01:27:28,470 --> 01:27:25,600 there i mean those things are run 2308 01:27:30,629 --> 01:27:28,480 forever and uh once everyone on mars 2309 01:27:34,390 --> 01:27:30,639 dies those things will run forever too 2310 01:27:36,550 --> 01:27:34,400 just like fukushima right so um they 2311 01:27:38,870 --> 01:27:36,560 reached out to battelle and said figure 2312 01:27:41,430 --> 01:27:38,880 it out and so what battelle did is they 2313 01:27:44,149 --> 01:27:41,440 put out an rfp a request for a proposal 2314 01:27:46,390 --> 01:27:44,159 to the industry and said 2315 01:27:48,470 --> 01:27:46,400 submit your ideas we're open we want to 2316 01:27:49,430 --> 01:27:48,480 put a nuclear reactor on the moon or on 2317 01:27:51,750 --> 01:27:49,440 mars 2318 01:27:53,910 --> 01:27:51,760 we know it's a dicey proposition we know 2319 01:27:55,669 --> 01:27:53,920 there's a lot of danger involved 2320 01:27:57,910 --> 01:27:55,679 we're open we're looking for ideas and 2321 01:27:59,350 --> 01:27:57,920 literally it was an open rfp i mean ryan 2322 01:28:01,030 --> 01:27:59,360 if you wanted to 2323 01:28:03,030 --> 01:28:01,040 you could submit one that says i have an 2324 01:28:05,590 --> 01:28:03,040 idea for a nuclear reactor that runs on 2325 01:28:06,950 --> 01:28:05,600 uh you know bubble gum or whatever yeah 2326 01:28:09,510 --> 01:28:06,960 if it works 2327 01:28:11,350 --> 01:28:09,520 uh yeah yeah you could submit that idea 2328 01:28:13,590 --> 01:28:11,360 so there would 2329 01:28:15,189 --> 01:28:13,600 mine would run on beer my man for sure 2330 01:28:17,510 --> 01:28:15,199 that's wrong 2331 01:28:19,510 --> 01:28:17,520 that runs on beer it's be like how come 2332 01:28:21,350 --> 01:28:19,520 the reactor isn't working and ryan would 2333 01:28:24,070 --> 01:28:21,360 be in the corner surrounded by bottles 2334 01:28:25,990 --> 01:28:24,080 going i'm nuts i don't know when we got 2335 01:28:28,229 --> 01:28:26,000 here right 2336 01:28:30,709 --> 01:28:28,239 don't worry about it don't worry about 2337 01:28:33,189 --> 01:28:30,719 it what's the big deal 2338 01:28:36,149 --> 01:28:33,199 i love you guys who cares i love you 2339 01:28:38,550 --> 01:28:36,159 guys i love the moon yep so that is that 2340 01:28:39,830 --> 01:28:38,560 was a what i call a one story story i'll 2341 01:28:41,590 --> 01:28:39,840 tell my wife and sugar what are you 2342 01:28:43,910 --> 01:28:41,600 writing and i say it's a one story story 2343 01:28:45,590 --> 01:28:43,920 and the story is they put out a request 2344 01:28:47,669 --> 01:28:45,600 for these reactors 2345 01:28:48,470 --> 01:28:47,679 what they're gonna get back 2346 01:28:51,030 --> 01:28:48,480 what 2347 01:28:52,790 --> 01:28:51,040 breakthrough ideas i mean nuclear actors 2348 01:28:55,510 --> 01:28:52,800 are pretty for better words pretty 2349 01:28:58,310 --> 01:28:55,520 straightforward technology so 2350 01:28:59,990 --> 01:28:58,320 what they're hoping to find what ideas i 2351 01:29:02,310 --> 01:29:00,000 don't know but i can tell you i talk to 2352 01:29:04,390 --> 01:29:02,320 people working on fusion reactors and 2353 01:29:07,030 --> 01:29:04,400 fusion science all the time because 2354 01:29:08,870 --> 01:29:07,040 that's so cutting edge and they are 2355 01:29:11,270 --> 01:29:08,880 constantly coming up with new methods 2356 01:29:13,830 --> 01:29:11,280 and new ideas and new approaches so may 2357 01:29:15,669 --> 01:29:13,840 very well be the case in nuclear fission 2358 01:29:18,149 --> 01:29:15,679 reactors which are 2359 01:29:19,750 --> 01:29:18,159 typical nuclear reactors that yeah may 2360 01:29:21,910 --> 01:29:19,760 be the case that they're looking for 2361 01:29:23,590 --> 01:29:21,920 maybe they'll look at thorium reactors 2362 01:29:26,229 --> 01:29:23,600 using 2363 01:29:28,709 --> 01:29:26,239 molten salts that don't have nuclear 2364 01:29:30,390 --> 01:29:28,719 spills a little more complex to run but 2365 01:29:31,830 --> 01:29:30,400 there's some technologies out there that 2366 01:29:34,629 --> 01:29:31,840 i'm definitely sure they're going to 2367 01:29:36,709 --> 01:29:34,639 look at and uh 2368 01:29:39,350 --> 01:29:36,719 what they'll come up with i don't know 2369 01:29:41,030 --> 01:29:39,360 but yeah if we have habitats permanent 2370 01:29:43,350 --> 01:29:41,040 habitats on the moon and permanent 2371 01:29:45,510 --> 01:29:43,360 habitats on mars and they have anything 2372 01:29:47,510 --> 01:29:45,520 more than like a little iss crew with 2373 01:29:49,590 --> 01:29:47,520 two three four five people at a time but 2374 01:29:51,910 --> 01:29:49,600 they actually grow up 2375 01:29:54,070 --> 01:29:51,920 they will more than likely be powered by 2376 01:29:56,950 --> 01:29:54,080 a nuclear reactor 2377 01:29:59,510 --> 01:29:56,960 interesting yeah all right hey man we 2378 01:30:02,790 --> 01:29:59,520 got nuclear reactors we got oxygen we're 2379 01:30:04,950 --> 01:30:02,800 on our way it's right right totally we 2380 01:30:07,910 --> 01:30:04,960 can live on the moon man i mean there's 2381 01:30:10,070 --> 01:30:07,920 cosmic rays and radiation and we don't 2382 01:30:12,629 --> 01:30:10,080 know if we can survive in one-sixth 2383 01:30:14,629 --> 01:30:12,639 earth gravity for very long we know that 2384 01:30:17,189 --> 01:30:14,639 astronauts that have been on the iss for 2385 01:30:19,110 --> 01:30:17,199 a year in zero gravity have all kinds of 2386 01:30:20,390 --> 01:30:19,120 health effects from it we know we sent 2387 01:30:21,830 --> 01:30:20,400 the twin brother 2388 01:30:24,550 --> 01:30:21,840 of the one up there and they compared 2389 01:30:26,310 --> 01:30:24,560 their biology uh the one twin that's the 2390 01:30:27,990 --> 01:30:26,320 astronaut went to the iss for a year and 2391 01:30:30,550 --> 01:30:28,000 the other one didn't i remember their 2392 01:30:32,709 --> 01:30:30,560 names but uh yeah there's swelling of 2393 01:30:35,350 --> 01:30:32,719 the eyes and effects of the blood 2394 01:30:38,790 --> 01:30:35,360 effects to the the size of the brain 2395 01:30:41,270 --> 01:30:38,800 uh effects to muscle atrophy uh affects 2396 01:30:43,830 --> 01:30:41,280 the function of organs like the kidney 2397 01:30:46,229 --> 01:30:43,840 and pancreas i mean all kinds of stuff 2398 01:30:48,310 --> 01:30:46,239 because again as i said we're earthlings 2399 01:30:50,310 --> 01:30:48,320 we're meant to be here and we're meant 2400 01:30:53,430 --> 01:30:50,320 to be with this exact amount of gravity 2401 01:30:54,870 --> 01:30:53,440 too so we don't know living on the moon 2402 01:30:56,870 --> 01:30:54,880 i can tell you if there's multiple 2403 01:30:59,350 --> 01:30:56,880 generations of people living on the moon 2404 01:31:01,669 --> 01:30:59,360 and they do survive and they're able to 2405 01:31:03,830 --> 01:31:01,679 replicate and prosper i wouldn't be the 2406 01:31:06,470 --> 01:31:03,840 least bit surprised if they all end up 2407 01:31:08,950 --> 01:31:06,480 way thin and way light because of the 2408 01:31:10,550 --> 01:31:08,960 lighter gravity environment with only a 2409 01:31:11,830 --> 01:31:10,560 hand within only a handful of 2410 01:31:12,709 --> 01:31:11,840 generations 2411 01:31:15,189 --> 01:31:12,719 so 2412 01:31:17,430 --> 01:31:15,199 hey man i could use that diet for sure 2413 01:31:19,590 --> 01:31:17,440 yeah right sent me to the lost 2414 01:31:22,470 --> 01:31:19,600 six months yeah 2415 01:31:24,229 --> 01:31:22,480 let's do it let's do it well okay man so 2416 01:31:26,709 --> 01:31:24,239 this next one we're gonna move a little 2417 01:31:28,629 --> 01:31:26,719 bit more into the lighter realm of some 2418 01:31:30,149 --> 01:31:28,639 of the science stories here you've 2419 01:31:32,070 --> 01:31:30,159 written over at the debrief and this one 2420 01:31:34,550 --> 01:31:32,080 really caught my eye because this is a 2421 01:31:38,709 --> 01:31:34,560 big thing here in new york i know it is 2422 01:31:41,510 --> 01:31:38,719 on like instagram and youtube um 2423 01:31:44,310 --> 01:31:41,520 astrology it's like this big thing it's 2424 01:31:47,350 --> 01:31:44,320 become a you know everyone's doing it 2425 01:31:49,590 --> 01:31:47,360 everyone's a part of it um and uh you 2426 01:31:51,430 --> 01:31:49,600 wrote this article with one of the best 2427 01:31:54,629 --> 01:31:51,440 titles i've ever heard astrology 2428 01:31:56,709 --> 01:31:54,639 believers less intelligent and more 2429 01:31:59,430 --> 01:31:56,719 narcissistic i know that's gonna piss 2430 01:32:02,629 --> 01:31:59,440 off some people probably watching this 2431 01:32:04,870 --> 01:32:02,639 and i'm sure it has man so tell me what 2432 01:32:07,590 --> 01:32:04,880 prompted you to write about this and 2433 01:32:09,189 --> 01:32:07,600 what do you think about astrology and is 2434 01:32:11,270 --> 01:32:09,199 this so i think it's always a push and 2435 01:32:13,270 --> 01:32:11,280 pull with the debrief where we're trying 2436 01:32:15,990 --> 01:32:13,280 to be as scientifically accurate as we 2437 01:32:17,910 --> 01:32:16,000 can but we're constantly reporting on 2438 01:32:20,870 --> 01:32:17,920 fringe science i'm reporting on guys 2439 01:32:23,189 --> 01:32:20,880 with fringe theories and physics fringe 2440 01:32:27,510 --> 01:32:23,199 theories and warp propulsion 2441 01:32:29,910 --> 01:32:27,520 all kinds of areas so i'm really careful 2442 01:32:33,030 --> 01:32:29,920 when i write something about something 2443 01:32:35,910 --> 01:32:33,040 that that is labeled a pseudo science 2444 01:32:39,189 --> 01:32:35,920 which is what the researchers labeled 2445 01:32:41,430 --> 01:32:39,199 astrology in the study i talked about 2446 01:32:43,189 --> 01:32:41,440 in this particular case 2447 01:32:45,669 --> 01:32:43,199 what they did was really simple they 2448 01:32:47,669 --> 01:32:45,679 created a questionnaire they put it out 2449 01:32:49,669 --> 01:32:47,679 on uh they looked for volunteers on 2450 01:32:51,830 --> 01:32:49,679 facebook to respond to it 2451 01:32:54,470 --> 01:32:51,840 and it had a bunch of questions 2452 01:32:56,550 --> 01:32:54,480 and the questions were uh 2453 01:32:58,470 --> 01:32:56,560 a to determine whether or not you 2454 01:33:01,750 --> 01:32:58,480 believe in astrology 2455 01:33:03,669 --> 01:33:01,760 um to determine your the big personality 2456 01:33:05,750 --> 01:33:03,679 characteristics that are part of a lot 2457 01:33:08,790 --> 01:33:05,760 of personality tests now 2458 01:33:10,550 --> 01:33:08,800 uh to determine narcissism 2459 01:33:12,550 --> 01:33:10,560 and then to determine a level of 2460 01:33:14,709 --> 01:33:12,560 intelligence 2461 01:33:17,350 --> 01:33:14,719 so they were just trying to get like us 2462 01:33:18,870 --> 01:33:17,360 a breakdown of people that were into 2463 01:33:20,709 --> 01:33:18,880 astrology 2464 01:33:22,550 --> 01:33:20,719 for their personality all their 2465 01:33:25,270 --> 01:33:22,560 different personality traits 2466 01:33:27,270 --> 01:33:25,280 as well as whether they were more or 2467 01:33:28,709 --> 01:33:27,280 less open-minded whether they were more 2468 01:33:31,270 --> 01:33:28,719 or less likely to believe in 2469 01:33:34,149 --> 01:33:31,280 pseudoscience or conspiracy theories and 2470 01:33:36,310 --> 01:33:34,159 and just see where this falls down 2471 01:33:37,990 --> 01:33:36,320 and unfortunately for people that 2472 01:33:41,590 --> 01:33:38,000 subscribe to it and follow it and 2473 01:33:43,830 --> 01:33:41,600 believe in it um there was a strong the 2474 01:33:46,310 --> 01:33:43,840 single strongest correlation in the 2475 01:33:49,110 --> 01:33:46,320 study with the belief in astrology was 2476 01:33:50,950 --> 01:33:49,120 narcissism now keep in mind just the 2477 01:33:52,870 --> 01:33:50,960 simple idea of 2478 01:33:55,750 --> 01:33:52,880 the the planets the movement of the 2479 01:33:57,990 --> 01:33:55,760 planets the movement of the stars affect 2480 01:34:00,709 --> 01:33:58,000 my personal life 2481 01:34:02,790 --> 01:34:00,719 and my personal well-being 2482 01:34:05,750 --> 01:34:02,800 simply could just that could be what 2483 01:34:07,990 --> 01:34:05,760 that's reflecting of it's just people 2484 01:34:08,790 --> 01:34:08,000 that think that are likely to think that 2485 01:34:11,110 --> 01:34:08,800 hey 2486 01:34:14,310 --> 01:34:11,120 i'm more important right like 2487 01:34:15,990 --> 01:34:14,320 the the the study was titled something i 2488 01:34:17,350 --> 01:34:16,000 mentioned in the article but the study 2489 01:34:20,149 --> 01:34:17,360 was like 2490 01:34:21,750 --> 01:34:20,159 even the stars think i'm special i think 2491 01:34:23,830 --> 01:34:21,760 that was literally the name the 2492 01:34:24,870 --> 01:34:23,840 researchers used in the headline of the 2493 01:34:25,990 --> 01:34:24,880 article 2494 01:34:28,470 --> 01:34:26,000 so 2495 01:34:29,669 --> 01:34:28,480 i think for that particular component i 2496 01:34:32,149 --> 01:34:29,679 don't know that there's a lot of 2497 01:34:33,990 --> 01:34:32,159 argument you can make about that other 2498 01:34:35,750 --> 01:34:34,000 than they're just they're saying what 2499 01:34:37,990 --> 01:34:35,760 they found in the study 2500 01:34:40,390 --> 01:34:38,000 the correlations with less intelligence 2501 01:34:41,910 --> 01:34:40,400 conspiracy theory and pseudoscience 2502 01:34:44,629 --> 01:34:41,920 unfortunately 2503 01:34:46,790 --> 01:34:44,639 it just you know 2504 01:34:49,270 --> 01:34:46,800 astrology looks like science right it 2505 01:34:51,350 --> 01:34:49,280 has all this information it has all this 2506 01:34:53,590 --> 01:34:51,360 mathematics and this goes here on this 2507 01:34:55,510 --> 01:34:53,600 day and this goes there on that day it 2508 01:34:58,550 --> 01:34:55,520 has the structure 2509 01:34:59,270 --> 01:34:58,560 of a scientific system 2510 01:35:01,510 --> 01:34:59,280 but 2511 01:35:02,790 --> 01:35:01,520 the analysis people that have tried to 2512 01:35:03,830 --> 01:35:02,800 analyze 2513 01:35:06,550 --> 01:35:03,840 um 2514 01:35:08,390 --> 01:35:06,560 astrology over the decades have never 2515 01:35:10,790 --> 01:35:08,400 been able to correlate 2516 01:35:13,109 --> 01:35:10,800 what an astrologer says is a person's 2517 01:35:14,470 --> 01:35:13,119 personality or tendencies or likely 2518 01:35:17,189 --> 01:35:14,480 behaviors 2519 01:35:19,109 --> 01:35:17,199 with their astrological sign or the 2520 01:35:20,229 --> 01:35:19,119 position of the star or the moon or any 2521 01:35:21,109 --> 01:35:20,239 of those things 2522 01:35:24,229 --> 01:35:21,119 so 2523 01:35:25,510 --> 01:35:24,239 from a scientific standpoint yeah i i 2524 01:35:27,510 --> 01:35:25,520 don't you know i talked to some 2525 01:35:30,149 --> 01:35:27,520 astronomers here and there and i would 2526 01:35:32,310 --> 01:35:30,159 guess that among that group astrology is 2527 01:35:33,830 --> 01:35:32,320 not very popular because they're trying 2528 01:35:36,070 --> 01:35:33,840 to understand 2529 01:35:37,270 --> 01:35:36,080 uh astronomical bodies from a scientific 2530 01:35:38,709 --> 01:35:37,280 standpoint they're trying to figure out 2531 01:35:41,669 --> 01:35:38,719 what they're made of what their orbits 2532 01:35:43,830 --> 01:35:41,679 are uh how they were created and where 2533 01:35:44,790 --> 01:35:43,840 they are in space all those things 2534 01:35:49,669 --> 01:35:44,800 so 2535 01:35:51,830 --> 01:35:49,679 that astronomers themselves do not do 2536 01:35:53,189 --> 01:35:51,840 not love astrology i haven't had anyone 2537 01:35:55,750 --> 01:35:53,199 say that to me directly i'm just 2538 01:35:58,229 --> 01:35:55,760 suspecting that so it really was just 2539 01:35:59,270 --> 01:35:58,239 this study it did it wasn't anyone's 2540 01:36:00,870 --> 01:35:59,280 opinion 2541 01:36:02,470 --> 01:36:00,880 it wasn't somebody coming out and gone 2542 01:36:05,750 --> 01:36:02,480 ah people that believe in astrology or 2543 01:36:08,470 --> 01:36:05,760 idiots it was studies saying we found a 2544 01:36:11,830 --> 01:36:08,480 number of correlations to a belief in 2545 01:36:14,149 --> 01:36:11,840 astrology now was the goal to set out 2546 01:36:15,910 --> 01:36:14,159 and show hey i think astrologer people 2547 01:36:18,310 --> 01:36:15,920 that believe it are dumb and believe in 2548 01:36:20,550 --> 01:36:18,320 i don't know i that wasn't indicated 2549 01:36:22,470 --> 01:36:20,560 anywhere in the study that's terrible it 2550 01:36:24,229 --> 01:36:22,480 was just indicated they wanted to know 2551 01:36:25,750 --> 01:36:24,239 what was the personality breakdown of 2552 01:36:28,790 --> 01:36:25,760 somebody what is the intelligence of 2553 01:36:31,030 --> 01:36:28,800 somebody who's into this system that's 2554 01:36:32,950 --> 01:36:31,040 been around for millennia that is really 2555 01:36:34,790 --> 01:36:32,960 hard to even trace the background to the 2556 01:36:37,990 --> 01:36:34,800 arguments of like where astrology comes 2557 01:36:39,510 --> 01:36:38,000 from and the astronomical signs i mean 2558 01:36:41,109 --> 01:36:39,520 they seem to go back thousands of 2559 01:36:42,470 --> 01:36:41,119 thousands of years before recorded 2560 01:36:44,229 --> 01:36:42,480 history so 2561 01:36:47,510 --> 01:36:44,239 trying to take a system that's literally 2562 01:36:50,310 --> 01:36:47,520 been around that long and and 2563 01:36:52,550 --> 01:36:50,320 analyze it for validity has been done so 2564 01:36:55,830 --> 01:36:52,560 once we've kind of said it seems to not 2565 01:36:57,510 --> 01:36:55,840 be real it seems to not indicate that if 2566 01:36:59,030 --> 01:36:57,520 you were born on this day and the moon 2567 01:37:01,590 --> 01:36:59,040 is in this house and this thing's in 2568 01:37:02,709 --> 01:37:01,600 retrograde that you should skip driving 2569 01:37:05,270 --> 01:37:02,719 to work that day because you're more 2570 01:37:07,270 --> 01:37:05,280 likely to get in an accident or whatever 2571 01:37:09,910 --> 01:37:07,280 those correlations just didn't seem to 2572 01:37:12,709 --> 01:37:09,920 hold up so yeah this follow-up study 2573 01:37:15,510 --> 01:37:12,719 this this was and again it's just a 2574 01:37:17,350 --> 01:37:15,520 questionnaire on facebook it's just a 2575 01:37:20,149 --> 01:37:17,360 couple of hundred people 2576 01:37:22,870 --> 01:37:20,159 and but yeah mj told me our editor told 2577 01:37:24,070 --> 01:37:22,880 me that the the feedback at the debrief 2578 01:37:26,390 --> 01:37:24,080 has been uh 2579 01:37:28,070 --> 01:37:26,400 extreme there's a lot a lot of attention 2580 01:37:30,310 --> 01:37:28,080 to it so 2581 01:37:32,550 --> 01:37:30,320 i'll admit i'm a little biased as a guy 2582 01:37:35,030 --> 01:37:32,560 who writes about science and writes 2583 01:37:38,470 --> 01:37:35,040 about people who actually use scientific 2584 01:37:41,350 --> 01:37:38,480 method to figure things out i personally 2585 01:37:43,830 --> 01:37:41,360 i'm not an astrology guy uh 2586 01:37:45,750 --> 01:37:43,840 i don't see a scientific correlation i 2587 01:37:48,870 --> 01:37:45,760 will say this and i have this discussion 2588 01:37:50,870 --> 01:37:48,880 with chrissy newton the other day 2589 01:37:53,270 --> 01:37:50,880 if you were born in the united states or 2590 01:37:54,629 --> 01:37:53,280 canada in the second half of the 20th 2591 01:37:57,030 --> 01:37:54,639 century 2592 01:37:58,550 --> 01:37:57,040 your calendar has a rhythm to it and by 2593 01:38:01,590 --> 01:37:58,560 that i mean 2594 01:38:04,310 --> 01:38:01,600 in the fall we start school 2595 01:38:06,950 --> 01:38:04,320 in the winter we have the holidays the 2596 01:38:09,350 --> 01:38:06,960 school year ends in may or june and we 2597 01:38:11,030 --> 01:38:09,360 have the summer off and that system's 2598 01:38:13,030 --> 01:38:11,040 more or less been in place in american 2599 01:38:15,750 --> 01:38:13,040 education since world war ii canadian 2600 01:38:17,590 --> 01:38:15,760 education to some degree as well and 2601 01:38:19,830 --> 01:38:17,600 social scientists have looked at this 2602 01:38:21,590 --> 01:38:19,840 and said sure enough 2603 01:38:24,790 --> 01:38:21,600 if you're in that group if you've been 2604 01:38:27,030 --> 01:38:24,800 born in the us in the last 70 years 60 2605 01:38:28,950 --> 01:38:27,040 years 2606 01:38:31,910 --> 01:38:28,960 when you were born 2607 01:38:34,629 --> 01:38:31,920 what time of year you were born may very 2608 01:38:36,709 --> 01:38:34,639 well affect you may very well affect 2609 01:38:38,229 --> 01:38:36,719 your personality your social 2610 01:38:40,629 --> 01:38:38,239 interactions your growth because 2611 01:38:42,709 --> 01:38:40,639 children when you're down at first grade 2612 01:38:44,629 --> 01:38:42,719 second grade third grade or god forbid 2613 01:38:45,990 --> 01:38:44,639 the start of puberty in middle school 2614 01:38:47,990 --> 01:38:46,000 and high school 2615 01:38:49,830 --> 01:38:48,000 that difference between 2616 01:38:52,070 --> 01:38:49,840 three months six months nine months 2617 01:38:54,390 --> 01:38:52,080 older than somebody else in your same 2618 01:38:55,910 --> 01:38:54,400 class or even a year older i had friends 2619 01:38:57,750 --> 01:38:55,920 in my senior high school that were born 2620 01:38:59,669 --> 01:38:57,760 in september and friends that were born 2621 01:39:02,149 --> 01:38:59,679 in december but a full year later they 2622 01:39:04,070 --> 01:39:02,159 were 15 months younger than these kids 2623 01:39:06,470 --> 01:39:04,080 in some situations 2624 01:39:08,229 --> 01:39:06,480 that that has a dramatic effect i know i 2625 01:39:10,070 --> 01:39:08,239 had a summer birthday so i never got to 2626 01:39:11,030 --> 01:39:10,080 celebrate my birthday in class right 2627 01:39:13,189 --> 01:39:11,040 literally 2628 01:39:15,350 --> 01:39:13,199 all through elementary school all the 2629 01:39:17,910 --> 01:39:15,360 kids that were born in october november 2630 01:39:19,590 --> 01:39:17,920 january you would have a cake in class 2631 01:39:20,950 --> 01:39:19,600 and everyone said yeah i just never went 2632 01:39:23,270 --> 01:39:20,960 through that i remember at that age 2633 01:39:24,550 --> 01:39:23,280 going like this sucks right i don't get 2634 01:39:26,870 --> 01:39:24,560 to have cake in school because my 2635 01:39:29,030 --> 01:39:26,880 birthday's at the end of june and i 2636 01:39:31,910 --> 01:39:29,040 hated that so yeah there's a good 2637 01:39:35,030 --> 01:39:31,920 argument to be said for a correlation 2638 01:39:36,070 --> 01:39:35,040 between birth date and some personality 2639 01:39:38,390 --> 01:39:36,080 traits 2640 01:39:40,390 --> 01:39:38,400 across the general population of north 2641 01:39:41,990 --> 01:39:40,400 america but as far as having to do 2642 01:39:44,629 --> 01:39:42,000 anything with the 2643 01:39:46,550 --> 01:39:44,639 scorpio and taurus and where stars and 2644 01:39:48,470 --> 01:39:46,560 planets are positioned yeah the this 2645 01:39:50,070 --> 01:39:48,480 study found that 2646 01:39:51,430 --> 01:39:50,080 yeah i think it's important to note in 2647 01:39:54,149 --> 01:39:51,440 an era of 2648 01:39:54,950 --> 01:39:54,159 conspiracy in pseudosciences 2649 01:40:00,149 --> 01:39:54,960 that 2650 01:40:02,470 --> 01:40:00,159 point to somebody who can maybe benefit 2651 01:40:04,070 --> 01:40:02,480 from a little more science education 2652 01:40:06,470 --> 01:40:04,080 is not a bad thing 2653 01:40:08,950 --> 01:40:06,480 not at all not at all and you know the 2654 01:40:09,990 --> 01:40:08,960 correlation i i can understand that i 2655 01:40:12,870 --> 01:40:10,000 mean you 2656 01:40:15,510 --> 01:40:12,880 you have a chaotic world in an uncertain 2657 01:40:18,310 --> 01:40:15,520 world especially right now in the middle 2658 01:40:20,070 --> 01:40:18,320 of a pandemic i i wouldn't blame a lot 2659 01:40:23,109 --> 01:40:20,080 of people for either 2660 01:40:24,070 --> 01:40:23,119 buying into conspiracies or uh buying 2661 01:40:26,870 --> 01:40:24,080 into 2662 01:40:29,189 --> 01:40:26,880 astrology um i'm personally not one of 2663 01:40:31,830 --> 01:40:29,199 those people i don't promote either of 2664 01:40:33,910 --> 01:40:31,840 those things conspiracy theory or 2665 01:40:36,709 --> 01:40:33,920 astrology uh but 2666 01:40:38,950 --> 01:40:36,719 but i can understand you know they both 2667 01:40:41,910 --> 01:40:38,960 astrology and conspiracy theory want to 2668 01:40:44,470 --> 01:40:41,920 make sense of things that simply don't 2669 01:40:46,790 --> 01:40:44,480 make sense or are simply so uncertain 2670 01:40:49,910 --> 01:40:46,800 that we have to make a truth we have to 2671 01:40:51,910 --> 01:40:49,920 make find control within that chaos so 2672 01:40:54,070 --> 01:40:51,920 why not why not oh i was born on this 2673 01:40:57,030 --> 01:40:54,080 day this means this i'm gonna be safe 2674 01:40:59,590 --> 01:40:57,040 i'm fine or oh we're not being told the 2675 01:41:02,629 --> 01:40:59,600 truth about a vaccine so there's clearly 2676 01:41:04,790 --> 01:41:02,639 a conspiracy and this person didn't take 2677 01:41:06,870 --> 01:41:04,800 it and they're alive and this person did 2678 01:41:09,189 --> 01:41:06,880 and they died that doesn't make sense to 2679 01:41:11,270 --> 01:41:09,199 me so there's clearly a conspiracy no 2680 01:41:13,430 --> 01:41:11,280 it's just the world is a chaotic place 2681 01:41:15,350 --> 01:41:13,440 science isn't perfect medicine isn't 2682 01:41:17,030 --> 01:41:15,360 perfect and we try to make sense of 2683 01:41:19,270 --> 01:41:17,040 those things so again i'm not promoting 2684 01:41:21,990 --> 01:41:19,280 conspiracy theory or astrology but a 2685 01:41:23,990 --> 01:41:22,000 part of me understands why some people 2686 01:41:25,910 --> 01:41:24,000 do and how it can come off as 2687 01:41:28,310 --> 01:41:25,920 narcissistic because at the end of the 2688 01:41:29,990 --> 01:41:28,320 day you're interested in that conspiracy 2689 01:41:32,070 --> 01:41:30,000 or astrology 2690 01:41:34,870 --> 01:41:32,080 for yourself yeah and how it's going to 2691 01:41:36,149 --> 01:41:34,880 affect your life yeah personally um so 2692 01:41:38,070 --> 01:41:36,159 and i think yeah 2693 01:41:40,550 --> 01:41:38,080 i think you know like cold readers like 2694 01:41:42,310 --> 01:41:40,560 people that uh pretend to be psychic but 2695 01:41:45,350 --> 01:41:42,320 aren't really and they do that for a 2696 01:41:47,109 --> 01:41:45,360 living they call it cold reading um if 2697 01:41:48,470 --> 01:41:47,119 you go through a cold reading event or 2698 01:41:51,189 --> 01:41:48,480 even a warm reading where they know a 2699 01:41:53,590 --> 01:41:51,199 little information about you uh it you 2700 01:41:55,270 --> 01:41:53,600 tend to grab onto the stuff that's right 2701 01:41:57,189 --> 01:41:55,280 and kind of dismiss the stuff that's 2702 01:41:58,950 --> 01:41:57,199 wrong so if you're reading a horoscope 2703 01:42:00,550 --> 01:41:58,960 about yourself in the morning and says 2704 01:42:01,990 --> 01:42:00,560 you're somebody who really doesn't like 2705 01:42:03,590 --> 01:42:02,000 to go to work and you're like god 2706 01:42:05,510 --> 01:42:03,600 they're right i really ain't going to 2707 01:42:07,590 --> 01:42:05,520 work you're going to grab on to that if 2708

really got me 2711 01:42:15,830 --> 01:42:13,679 figured out even if within the same 2712 01:42:17,189 --> 01:42:15,840 thing it says you tend to be shy and 2713 01:42:19,750 --> 01:42:17,199 you're

2797 01:45:47,270 --> 01:45:44,639 question and jocko you lied to me buddy 2798 01:45:48,870 --> 01:45:47,280 so then that's so cool right near the 2799 01:45:50,950 --> 01:45:48,880 end of the interview i told him i said 2800 01:45:52,629 --> 01:45:50,960 you know with previous rover missions 2801 01:45:55,189 --> 01:45:52,639 because i've been following rovers as i 2802 01:45:57,109 --> 01:45:55,199 said since spirit opportunity landed on 2803 01:45:58,950 --> 01:45:57,119 mars in the late 90s 2804 01:46:01,750 --> 01:45:58,960 and i said i've noticed with previous 2805 01:46:03,270 --> 01:46:01,760 rover missions that when they're done 2806 01:46:05,189 --> 01:46:03,280 like for instance spirit and opportunity 2807 01:46:07,270 --> 01:46:05,199 had 90 day missions and that was it but 2808 01:46:09,350 --> 01:46:07,280 they run away for seven years one grand 2809 01:46:11,430 --> 01:46:09,360 i don't know how i mean years and years 2810 01:46:13,109 --> 01:46:11,440 for both of those 2811 01:46:15,030 --> 01:46:13,119 so what they do is they have a backup 2812 01:46:17,430 --> 01:46:15,040 plan they say okay if we get to 90 days 2813 01:46:19,430 --> 01:46:17,440 and we burnt up all of our experiments 2814 01:46:20,870 --> 01:46:19,440 we go to the b book of experiments and 2815 01:46:23,430 --> 01:46:20,880 then if we burn all those up we do 2816 01:46:24,790 --> 01:46:23,440 another 90 another and you constantly 2817 01:46:27,189 --> 01:46:24,800 have these like 2818 01:46:28,870 --> 01:46:27,199 alternates of if we keep working and the 2819 01:46:30,709 --> 01:46:28,880 thing keeps going what do we do so i 2820 01:46:32,550 --> 01:46:30,719 asked choco i said 2821 01:46:34,390 --> 01:46:32,560 you guys have xn i forget how many it 2822 01:46:36,390 --> 01:46:34,400 was at the time but they had a handful 2823 01:46:39,669 --> 01:46:36,400 of test flights scheduled 2824 01:46:42,229 --> 01:46:39,679 and i said when you finish those flights 2825 01:46:45,189 --> 01:46:42,239 and you finish that book 2826 01:46:47,430 --> 01:46:45,199 if the helicopter is still working 2827 01:46:49,510 --> 01:46:47,440 what is the b book what are what are the 2828 01:46:51,510 --> 01:46:49,520 what's that next set of missions what do 2829 01:46:54,310 --> 01:46:51,520 you guys have planned 2830 01:46:56,550 --> 01:46:54,320 and he told me that at that point the 2831 01:46:58,550 --> 01:46:56,560 mars perseverance rover which is how 2832 01:47:01,430 --> 01:46:58,560 they communicate to the helicopter they 2833 01:47:02,790 --> 01:47:01,440 talk to an orbital sad thing it talks to 2834 01:47:04,950 --> 01:47:02,800 the rover and the rover talks to the 2835 01:47:07,830 --> 01:47:04,960 helicopter that's how we do it 2836 01:47:10,629 --> 01:47:07,840 he said it will have to move on to its 2837 01:47:12,310 --> 01:47:10,639 own science missions so that will be it 2838 01:47:14,310 --> 01:47:12,320 the helicopter will do those first few 2839 01:47:16,470 --> 01:47:14,320 flights and that'll be it so of course 2840 01:47:18,629 --> 01:47:16,480 it had those first few flights and then 2841 01:47:21,109 --> 01:47:18,639 nasa announced oh we have a b set of 2842 01:47:23,669 --> 01:47:21,119 missions since it's still working so i 2843 01:47:25,510 --> 01:47:23,679 got him twice in that article telling me 2844 01:47:27,109 --> 01:47:25,520 not the truth because there were things 2845 01:47:28,629 --> 01:47:27,119 he just didn't want to give up he didn't 2846 01:47:31,270 --> 01:47:28,639 want to give up the right mother's wing 2847 01:47:32,790 --> 01:47:31,280 which i get and he didn't want to say 2848 01:47:34,790 --> 01:47:32,800 we have backup missions because he 2849 01:47:38,070 --> 01:47:34,800 wanted everyone focused on those primary 2850 01:47:40,149 --> 01:47:38,080 missions so what's gonna happen next i 2851 01:47:42,070 --> 01:47:40,159 literally don't know i asked the guy 2852 01:47:43,990 --> 01:47:42,080 directly and he told me there weren't 2853 01:47:45,350 --> 01:47:44,000 any and the thing is still doing test 2854 01:47:47,910 --> 01:47:45,360 flights 2855 01:47:51,350 --> 01:47:47,920 as far as future projects like that 2856 01:47:54,229 --> 01:47:51,360 we're talking about a submarine on titan 2857 01:47:55,669 --> 01:47:54,239 which is one of saturn's moons saturn's 2858 01:47:58,149 --> 01:47:55,679 moon titan is one of the most 2859 01:48:00,149 --> 01:47:58,159 interesting places in the solar system 2860 01:48:02,310 --> 01:48:00,159 because it has a dense atmosphere like 2861 01:48:03,990 --> 01:48:02,320 earth and it has the atmospheric 2862 01:48:05,669 --> 01:48:04,000 pressure almost identical to ours as a 2863 01:48:07,510 --> 01:48:05,679 matter of fact other than the fact that 2864 01:48:09,350 --> 01:48:07,520 it's about you know depending on the 2865 01:48:12,629 --> 01:48:09,360 temperature and time of day it's like 2866 01:48:15,189 --> 01:48:12,639 freezing there you could stand on the 2867 01:48:16,950 --> 01:48:15,199 surface of titan in your bathing suit 2868 01:48:18,950 --> 01:48:16,960 and as long as you have a breathing mask 2869 01:48:21,510 --> 01:48:18,960 on to protect your eyes ears and face 2870 01:48:23,430 --> 01:48:21,520 and stuff and breathe proper air the 2871 01:48:25,830 --> 01:48:23,440 atmospheric pressure and the environment 2872 01:48:28,709 --> 01:48:25,840 would actually support us there but what 2873 01:48:31,430 --> 01:48:28,719 they also have on on that moon on the 2874 01:48:33,189 --> 01:48:31,440 moon titan is a bunch of lakes 2875 01:48:35,669 --> 01:48:33,199 and uh and 2876 01:48:38,470 --> 01:48:35,679 not oceans but actual huge bodies of 2877 01:48:41,590 --> 01:48:38,480 liquid lakes now they're not water 2878 01:48:44,229 --> 01:48:41,600 they're hydrocarbons so they're uh you 2879 01:48:45,990 --> 01:48:44,239 know like uh you know like gasoline and 2880 01:48:47,990 --> 01:48:46,000 stuff you know they're they're they're 2881 01:48:49,270 --> 01:48:48,000 they're flammable hydrocarbons here on 2882 01:48:51,109 --> 01:48:49,280 earth 2883 01:48:53,430 --> 01:48:51,119 but they're fully liquid like so we've 2884 01:48:55,830 --> 01:48:53,440 talked about putting a submarine up 2885 01:48:57,590 --> 01:48:55,840 there because of that dense atmosphere 2886 01:48:59,430 --> 01:48:57,600 if we put a little helicopter like the 2887 01:49:01,189 --> 01:48:59,440 one on mars up there you wouldn't even 2888 01:49:03,350 --> 01:49:01,199 have to turn the helicopter blades very 2889 01:49:04,870 --> 01:49:03,360 fast and the thing would fly i read an 2890 01:49:07,350 --> 01:49:04,880 article that said the atmosphere is so 2891 01:49:09,590 --> 01:49:07,360 good and dense there and the gravity is 2892 01:49:11,189 --> 01:49:09,600 light enough that if a man had wings 2893 01:49:14,470 --> 01:49:11,199 taped to his arm and you'd get a good 2894 01:49:17,270 --> 01:49:14,480 run and flap them you could fly on tight 2895 01:49:20,470 --> 01:49:17,280 between the atmosphere density and the 2896 01:49:22,550 --> 01:49:20,480 uh and the low gravity so that is a 2897 01:49:24,629 --> 01:49:22,560 place that uh 2898 01:49:27,669 --> 01:49:24,639 i think we will plan robotic missions 2899 01:49:29,990 --> 01:49:27,679 for as far as another helicopter i think 2900 01:49:32,550 --> 01:49:30,000 that was the goal of ingenuity it was 2901 01:49:34,070 --> 01:49:32,560 what they call a technology demonstrator 2902 01:49:35,830 --> 01:49:34,080 and the goal was to prove that we could 2903 01:49:38,310 --> 01:49:35,840 put a helicopter on another planet fly 2904 01:49:39,830 --> 01:49:38,320 the thing around and sure enough we did 2905 01:49:41,589 --> 01:49:39,840 so 2906 01:49:44,550 --> 01:49:41,599 we're gonna do it man they're gonna be 2907 01:49:46,950 --> 01:49:44,560 more helicopters fly into more places 2908 01:49:49,189 --> 01:49:46,960 that thing was just a proof of concept 2909 01:49:51,270 --> 01:49:49,199 i love it and it could not have been 2910 01:49:53,830 --> 01:49:51,280 more successful we're living in crazy 2911 01:49:56,870 --> 01:49:53,840 times man i i i can't believe it i feel 2912 01:50:00,550 --> 01:49:56,880 so blessed to like be living in this age 2913 01:50:01,510 --> 01:50:00,560 oh this next 50 years of science ryan 2914 01:50:04,470 --> 01:50:01,520 you know 2915 01:50:06,550 --> 01:50:04,480 setting aside that we may be on the cusp 2916 01:50:09,510 --> 01:50:06,560 of the hugest story of mankind regarding 2917 01:50:11,990 --> 01:50:09,520 ufos and alien life just setting that 2918 01:50:14,550 --> 01:50:12,000 aside the progress we are making the 2919 01:50:16,070 --> 01:50:14,560 progress humans are making in science 2920 01:50:18,470 --> 01:50:16,080 understanding technology and 2921 01:50:20,709 --> 01:50:18,480 developments is just 2922 01:50:22,470 --> 01:50:20,719 incredible and amazing and it's growing 2923 01:50:25,030 --> 01:50:22,480 at an exponential rate you know back in 2924 01:50:27,270 --> 01:50:25,040 the back in the times of the uh the 2925 01:50:29,350 --> 01:50:27,280 apollo moon landings the population of 2926 01:50:30,950 --> 01:50:29,360 earth was like 20 of what it is now so 2927 01:50:33,510 --> 01:50:30,960 we just have a lot more people working 2928 01:50:36,149 --> 01:50:33,520 on it we have scientists working 2929 01:50:38,550 --> 01:50:36,159 they're scientists in in china and korea 2930 01:50:40,629 --> 01:50:38,560 and japan scientists in europe south and 2931 01:50:41,830 --> 01:50:40,639 central america there are people that 2932 01:50:44,870 --> 01:50:41,840 write 2933 01:50:47,350 --> 01:50:44,880 masters theses and phd theses about 2934 01:50:49,990 --> 01:50:47,360 things like warp drive and wormholes and 2935 01:50:51,990 --> 01:50:50,000 time travel all of these cutting edge 2936 01:50:53,990 --> 01:50:52,000 sciences all these amazing things you 2937 01:50:55,030 --> 01:50:54,000 can think of people are working on them 2938 01:50:57,030 --> 01:50:55,040 and people are trying to make them 2939 01:50:58,149 --> 01:50:57,040 happen and that's never been like that 2940 01:51:00,229 --> 01:50:58,159 in history 2941 01:51:02,149 --> 01:51:00,239 it's amazing and you're bringing us the 2942 01:51:03,990 --> 01:51:02,159 most up-to-date information that's right 2943 01:51:04,830 --> 01:51:04,000 those scientists are trying to write 2944 01:51:06,550 --> 01:51:04,840 about 2945 01:51:09,109 --> 01:51:06,560 stuff 2946 01:51:11,430 --> 01:51:09,119 i love it warlock says great show guest 2947 01:51:14,470 -->

01:51:21,270 --> 01:51:19,119 asking a lot of science questions 2951 01:51:24,070 --> 01:51:21,280 and that's what i wanted man i will do 2952 01:51:25,910 --> 01:51:24,080 the stand-up show another time maybe for 2953 01:51:28,310 --> 01:51:25,920 the patreon we'll do that um but the 2954 01:51:30,390 --> 01:51:28,320 last story i want to cover with you here 2955 01:51:33,589 --> 01:51:30,400 um

2965 01:51:56,550 --> 01:51:53,840 own it but i helped open it um called 2966 01:51:58,629 --> 01:51:56,560 coffee for sasquatch so i love me some 2967 01:52:00,870 --> 01:51:58,639 coffee man it's in my blood every second 2968 01:52:02,950 --> 01:52:00,880 of every day and now 2969 01:52:04,310 --> 01:52:02,960 i'm learning you know 2970 01:52:06,629 --> 01:52:04,320 you always hear 2971 01:52:08,790 --> 01:52:06,639 on the news every night it's coffee will 2972 01:52:10,310 --> 01:52:08,800 cause cancer no it won't yes it will no 2973 01:52:11,350 --> 01:52:10,320 it won't yes it

01:52:15,760 came out with an article about coffee 2977 01:52:21,030 --> 01:52:18,480 and alzheimer's disease so could you 2978 01:52:22,709 --> 01:52:21,040 tell us the correlation and uh what you 2979 01:52:24,870 --> 01:52:22,719 discovered in this article if you don't 2980 01:52:26,950 --> 01:52:24,880 mind yeah well first let me start with 2981 01:52:29,430 --> 01:52:26,960 this ryan coffee is good for you keep 2982 01:52:30,310 --> 01:52:29,440 drinking so um you have to tell me 2983 01:52:32,629 --> 01:52:30,320 choice 2984 01:52:34,950 --> 01:52:32,639 the biggest controversies around coffee 2985 01:52:36,709 --> 01:52:34,960 historically have been around caffeine 2986 01:52:39,430 --> 01:52:36,719 and caffeine addiction because if you're 2987 01:52:40,950 --> 01:52:39,440 drinking six seven eight cups a day and 2988 01:52:42,870 --> 01:52:40,960 you're feeling dragged down if you don't 2989 01:52:45,589 --> 01:52:42,880 drink that many yeah you might have a 2990 01:52:47,669 --> 01:52:45,599 caffeine problem or a stimulant problem 2991 01:52:51,350 --> 01:52:47,679 and uh you know you're a mini tweaker 2992 01:52:53,830 --> 01:52:51,360 little coffee tweaker but 2993 01:52:55,990 --> 01:52:53,840 as far as the bean itself 2994 01:52:57,550 --> 01:52:56,000 the coffee bean really is a magical bean 2995 01:52:59,669 --> 01:52:57,560 it's full of these things called 2996 01:53:02,070 --> 01:52:59,679 bioflavonoids which have tons of health 2997 01:53:04,790 --> 01:53:02,080 benefits it's full of antioxidants that 2998 01:53:06,390 --> 01:53:04,800 have tons of health benefits and for 2999 01:53:07,990 --> 01:53:06,400 some people can the caffeine is 3000 01:53:10,790 --> 01:53:08,000 beneficial as a matter of fact there's 3001 01:53:13,109 --> 01:53:10,800 been a lot of studies showing uh help 3002 01:53:15,750 --> 01:53:13,119 health benefits for diabetics for 3003 01:53:17,189 --> 01:53:15,760 drinking coffee and in many ways it 3004 01:53:19,109 --> 01:53:17,199 really is just doing what you do it's 3005 01:53:20,790 --> 01:53:19,119 just amping up your uh metabolism a 3006 01:53:23,510 --> 01:53:20,800 little bit helping your body process out 3007 01:53:26,149 --> 01:53:23,520 that sugar and stave it off 3008 01:53:28,070 --> 01:53:26,159 this one about alzheimer's was really 3009 01:53:31,270 --> 01:53:28,080 interesting 3010 01:53:33,750 --> 01:53:31,280 because they basically took about 10 000 3011 01:53:35,270 --> 01:53:33,760 people that they studied over a couple 3012 01:53:38,550 --> 01:53:35,280 of decades 3013 01:53:40,629 --> 01:53:38,560 and looked at their looked at the onset 3014 01:53:42,870 --> 01:53:40,639 of alzheimer's and dementia and 3015 01:53:46,070 --> 01:53:42,880 alzheimer's like symptoms 3016 01:53:49,750 --> 01:53:46,080 and they found a correlation 3017 01:53:52,550 --> 01:53:49,760 to drinking coffee and the delayed or no 3018 01:53:54,550 --> 01:53:52,560 onset of the symptoms and 3019 01:53:56,310 --> 01:53:54,560 the thing that was most exciting for 3020 01:53:58,229 --> 01:53:56,320 people like you ryan 3021 01:54:00,870 --> 01:53:58,239 is they found that the more coffee the 3022 01:54:02,709 --> 01:54:00,880 better so two cups had a better effect 3023 01:54:04,709 --> 01:54:02,719 three cups had a better effect they 3024 01:54:05,669 --> 01:54:04,719 didn't target an upper limit in the 3025 01:54:07,669 --> 01:54:05,679 study 3026 01:54:10,390 --> 01:54:07,679 but the more coffee the better for 3027 01:54:14,470 --> 01:54:10,400 preventing alzheimer's what the exact 3028 01:54:16,950 --> 01:54:14,480 mechanism is is is is being looked at i 3029 01:54:20,070 --> 01:54:16,960 can tell you this that most studies that 3030 01:54:22,070 --> 01:54:20,080 study alzheimer's focus on those amyloid 3031 01:54:24,070 --> 01:54:22,080 beta proteins that build up on the brain 3032 01:54:26,870 --> 01:54:24,080 like plaque and just kind of interfere 3033 01:54:29,430 --> 01:54:26,880 with everything working right and uh 3034 01:54:32,629 --> 01:54:29,440 that this may uh reduce the growth of 3035 01:54:35,990 --> 01:54:32,639 those or reduce the size of those it may 3036 01:54:38,470 --> 01:54:36,000 just be the anti-inflammatory 3037 01:54:41,350 --> 01:54:38,480 effects of the bean itself but they 3038 01:54:43,830 --> 01:54:41,360 found a real measurable benefit to it 3039 01:54:46,390 --> 01:54:43,840 and what's interesting is they found it 3040 01:54:48,950 --> 01:54:46,400 with a decaf coffee as well so it was 3041 01:54:51,990 --> 01:54:48,960 definitely not a caffeine related uh 3042 01:54:54,310 --> 01:54:52,000 benefit but it was specifically to the 3043 01:54:57,109 --> 01:54:54,320 the benefits in the coffee bean itself 3044 01:54:59,109 --> 01:54:57,119 which i will reiterate is a very healthy 3045 01:55:01,589 --> 01:54:59,119 bean with a lot of i'm not a big coffee 3046 01:55:02,629 --> 01:55:01,599 drinker my wife loves it but uh it's 3047 01:55:04,950 --> 01:55:02,639 it's 3048 01:55:07,109 --> 01:55:04,960 for every study that says don't drink 3049 01:55:08,470 --> 01:55:07,119 coffee i'll find you 20 that explain why 3050 01:55:11,030 --> 01:55:08,480 it's good 3051 01:55:14,070 --> 01:55:11,040 yup the coffee industrial complex which 3052 01:55:16,229 --> 01:55:14,080 i am a part of that's right 3053 01:55:17,990 --> 01:55:16,239 i love it man that's exciting to hear 3054 01:55:20,950 --> 01:55:18,000 because you know every day i think of 3055 01:55:23,669 --> 01:55:20,960 quentin um because yeah i i probably 3056 01:55:26,950 --> 01:55:23,679 have a small bit of an addiction but um 3057 01:55:28,629 --> 01:55:26,960 i also really appreciate uh coffee for 3058 01:55:30,830 --> 01:55:28,639 you know the artistry of it and the 3059 01:55:32,629 --> 01:55:30,840 different beans and everything and 3060 01:55:34,310 --> 01:55:32,639 now 3061 01:55:35,910 --> 01:55:34,320 i love it yep there's a lot of 3062 01:55:37,430 --> 01:55:35,920 breakthroughs and alzheimer's coming 3063 01:55:40,070 --> 01:55:37,440 because we've really put a ton of money 3064 01:55:41,910 --> 01:55:40,080 and research into it and because uh 3065 01:55:44,629 --> 01:55:41,920 research has been able to really zero in 3066 01:55:46,149 --> 01:55:44,639 and target on this protein uh there's a 3067 01:55:47,510 --> 01:55:46,159 couple there's a couple more treatments 3068 01:55:50,070 --> 01:55:47,520 there's one that's been announced 3069 01:55:52,149 --> 01:55:50,080 recently that's all over the news 3070 01:55:55,030 --> 01:55:52,159 everywhere is a new drug 3071 01:55:56,709 --> 01:55:55,040 i can't remember the name uh but if you 3072 01:55:59,030 --> 01:55:56,719 take this it will 3073 01:56:01,669 --> 01:55:59,040 essentially over time eliminate or 3074 01:56:03,589 --> 01:56:01,679 greatly reduce those so they're looking 3075 01:56:06,229 --> 01:56:03,599 not only as a preventative but actually 3076 01:56:08,070 --> 01:56:06,239 a reversing of alzheimer's i can tell 3077 01:56:09,990 --> 01:56:08,080 you my father suffers with alzheimer's 3078 01:56:12,149 --> 01:56:10,000 so it's not a pretty picture and it's 3079 01:56:15,109 --> 01:56:12,159 definitely something that even an 3080 01:56:17,350 --> 01:56:15,119 extremely expensive treatment uh is a 3081 01:56:19,910 --> 01:56:17,360 welcome one they're also working on an 3082 01:56:21,430 --> 01:56:19,920 alzheimer's vaccine 3083 01:56:23,990 --> 01:56:21,440 and this is something i'll be reporting 3084 01:56:25,589 --> 01:56:24,000 about in the coming weeks but basically 3085 01:56:28,070 --> 01:56:25,599 the idea is 3086 01:56:30,470 --> 01:56:28,080 if we have these new treatments to 3087 01:56:32,470 --> 01:56:30,480 eliminate these proteins 3088 01:56:34,870 --> 01:56:32,480 what if we could trigger our body's own 3089 01:56:36,629 --> 01:56:34,880 immune response to just prevent those 3090 01:56:39,030 --> 01:56:36,639 proteins from building up in the first 3091 01:56:41,430 --> 01:56:39,040 place to prevent that amyloid beta from 3092 01:56:43,109 --> 01:56:41,440 building up around the brain and causing 3093 01:56:45,510 --> 01:56:43,119 these problems and that's the idea 3094 01:56:47,669 --> 01:56:45,520 behind this vaccine and i wouldn't be 3095 01:56:49,990 --> 01:56:47,679 the least bit surprised ryan by the time 3096 01:56:53,109 --> 01:56:50,000 i'm having to to face the possibility of 3097 01:56:54,709 --> 01:56:53,119 that my 60s or 70s or or you a guy who's 3098 01:56:57,589 --> 01:56:54,719 a little younger than me having to face 3099 01:56:59,750 --> 01:56:57,599 that uh that there's just a vaccine you 3100 01:57:01,830 --> 01:56:59,760 go and get just like you you can get the 3101 01:57:03,750 --> 01:57:01,840 shingles vaccine now or you can get the 3102 01:57:05,109 --> 01:57:03,760 uh uh yeah i hear there's some other 3103 01:57:06,950 --> 01:57:05,119 vaccine in the news i don't remember 3104 01:57:09,350 --> 01:57:06,960 which one it is but 3105 01:57:11,430 --> 01:57:09,360 yeah that's really interesting well and 3106 01:57:13,270 --> 01:57:11,440 then you know we also have a huge 3107 01:57:16,310 --> 01:57:13,280 problem with diabetes at least here in 3108 01:57:19,830 --> 01:57:16,320 america okay so again if something like 3109 01:57:20,870 --> 01:57:19,840 a vaccine or um a coffee bean can help 3110 01:57:26,550 --> 01:57:20,880 like 3111 01:57:28,550 --> 01:57:26,560 embrace these things i love the only 3112 01:57:30,709 --> 01:57:28,560 thing i would and i'm no doctor the only 3113 01:57:33,109 --> 01:57:30,719 thing i would warn people about coffee 3114 01:57:35,270 --> 01:57:33,119 and excessive coffee drinking and this 3115 01:57:37,430 --> 01:57:35,280 is gonna stink for those people but if 3116 01:57:40,709 --> 01:57:37,440 you're pregnant there's a decent number 3117 01:57:43,350 --> 01:57:40,719 of studies that are kind of go both ways 3118 01:57:45,910 --> 01:57:43,360 so the effects it can have on your kid 3119 01:57:48,070 --> 01:57:45,920 could be positive could be negative so 3120 01:57:50,149 --> 01:57:48,080 if you are a coffee drinker and you can 3121 01:57:51,830 --> 01:57:50,159 skip it for those nine months which 3122 01:57:53,830 --> 01:57:51,840 would be insane for most people that 3123 01:57:55,270 --> 01:57:53,840 drink coffee regularly 3124 01:57:56,870 --> 01:57:55,280 you know it's at least something to talk 3125 01:57:59,669 --> 01:57:56,880 to your doctor about looked into the 3126 01:58:00,950 --> 01:57:59,679 studies but for the vast majority of 3127 01:58:03,030 --> 01:58:00,960 scenarios 3128 01:58:05,109 --> 01:58:03,040 coffee is constantly shocking us with 3129 01:58:07,669 --> 01:58:05,119 its health benefits 3130 01:58:10,870 --> 01:58:07,679 love it love it i'm all for it well hey 3131 01:58:14,149 --> 01:58:10,880 man let's end with um what to look 3132 01:58:16,629 --> 01:58:14,159 forward to we're heading into 2022 3133 01:58:19,589 --> 01:58:16,639 um hopeful of many things new 3134 01:58:22,070 --> 01:58:19,599 discoveries so twofold question for you 3135 01:58:24,470 --> 01:58:22,080 before we go chris um 3136 01:58:27,109 --> 01:58:24,480 what do you hope to see in 2022 when it 3137 01:58:29,750 --> 01:58:27,119 comes to space exploration and the hunt 3138 01:58:32,790 --> 01:58:29,760 for aliens and the second part of that 3139 01:58:34,950 --> 01:58:32,800 what do you hope for in terms of the uap 3140 01:58:39,750 --> 01:58:34,960 topic so hit us with what you hope for 3141 01:58:44,229 --> 01:58:40,629 so 3142 01:58:47,189 --> 01:58:44,239 on the uap topic i will say that i think 3143 01:58:48,709 --> 01:58:47,199 we're on the precipice of something 3144 01:58:50,870 --> 01:58:48,719 so 3145 01:58:52,950 --> 01:58:50,880 the people i work with that report on 3146 01:58:55,510 --> 01:58:52,960 this stuff exclusively 3147 01:58:56,950 --> 01:58:55,520 try and temper expectations all the time 3148 01:58:58,229 --> 01:58:56,960 because we really don't know what's 3149 01:59:01,189 --> 01:58:58,239 coming out 3150 01:59:03,830 --> 01:59:01,199 i'm a firm believer that 2022 is the 3151 01:59:05,510 --> 01:59:03,840 year we hear somebody in official 3152 01:59:08,709 --> 01:59:05,520 capacity say 3153 01:59:10,149 --> 01:59:08,719 a non-human technological intelligence 3154 01:59:12,310 --> 01:59:10,159 i just think that's going to happen i 3155 01:59:13,750 --> 01:59:12,320 think we're there i think we've 3156 01:59:15,910 --> 01:59:13,760 eliminated 3157 01:59:17,990 --> 01:59:15,920 you know there were always three ideas 3158 01:59:19,510 --> 01:59:18,000 ufos are a hallucination not real 3159 01:59:22,310 --> 01:59:19,520 misidentification whatever you want to 3160 01:59:24,629 --> 01:59:22,320 call it but they're not a thing 3161 01:59:26,790 --> 01:59:24,639 they're secret military 3162 01:59:28,550 --> 01:59:26,800 or they're a non-human technological 3163 01:59:30,870 --> 01:59:28,560 intelligence of some sort aliens 3164 01:59:33,270 --> 01:59:30,880 whatever trans dimensions 3165 01:59:36,790 --> 01:59:33,280 that first one's pretty much done the 3166 01:59:39,109 --> 01:59:36,800 the idea that all ufos that every pilot 3167 01:59:40,669 --> 01:59:39,119 reports and every radar season all these 3168 01:59:42,629 --> 01:59:40,679 things are just 3169 01:59:44,629 --> 01:59:42,639 misidentifications or atmospheric 3170 01:59:46,709 --> 01:59:44,639 phenomena or other things i think that's 3171 01:59:48,870 --> 01:59:46,719 over leslie kane said it with her last 3172 01:59:52,629 --> 01:59:48,880 story she wrote in the new york times 3173 01:59:54,870 --> 01:59:52,639 that the question of if ufos are real 3174 01:59:57,589 --> 01:59:54,880 is over and i do agree with her i think 3175 01:59:59,910 --> 01:59:57,599 that that has been set aside 3176 02:00:02,070 --> 01:59:59,920 we're now entering an area 3177 02:00:04,470 --> 02:00:02,080 where those in the position to know 3178 02:00:06,790 --> 02:00:04,480 those people with more information with 3179 02:00:09,589 --> 02:00:06,800 more pictures with more videos are going 3180 02:00:12,629 --> 02:00:09,599 to be put in a position to either say 3181 02:00:15,189 --> 02:00:12,639 it's us or it's not us and if they say 3182 02:00:18,229 --> 02:00:15,199 it's not us and they say conclusively 3183 02:00:21,030 --> 02:00:18,239 it's not another human intelligence that 3184 02:00:23,669 --> 02:00:21,040 only leaves the alternative and so i 3185 02:00:26,229 --> 02:00:23,679 think that's coming i do i think 2022 is 3186 02:00:28,950 --> 02:00:26,239 the year i think a lot is built to that 3187 02:00:31,350 --> 02:00:28,960 i think guys like melanin elizondo 3188 02:00:34,229 --> 02:00:31,360 lit that flame and however you feel 3189 02:00:35,030 --> 02:00:34,239 about them and i always cover my bases 3190 02:00:36,950 --> 02:00:35,040 with 3191 02:00:39,109 --> 02:00:36,960 their former intelligence community 3192 02:00:40,790 --> 02:00:39,119 people and it could definitely be human 3193 02:00:43,430 --> 02:00:40,800 technology that they're just not telling 3194 02:00:46,470 --> 02:00:43,440 us about their job is to distract 3195 02:00:48,390 --> 02:00:46,480 but uh if that's not the case if we do 3196 02:00:51,830 --> 02:00:48,400 ultimately land on 3197 02:00:54,470 --> 02:00:51,840 it's not human and and then not not ours 3198 02:00:57,270 --> 02:00:54,480 and not uh an adversaries 3199 02:00:59,990 --> 02:00:57,280 non-human becomes the last option and i 3200 02:01:01,910 --> 02:01:00,000 think this 2022 may be the year that 3201 02:01:03,669 --> 02:01:01,920 that breaks open and i've never said 3202 02:01:05,510 --> 02:01:03,679 that i've been following as i said i've 3203 02:01:08,310 --> 02:01:05,520 been following this topic and next year 3204 02:01:09,910 --> 02:01:08,320 it'll be 45 years of my life and i never 3205 02:01:11,830 --> 02:01:09,920 felt that was coming other than when i 3206 02:01:13,109 --> 02:01:11,840 was a little kid and i saw in search 3207 02:01:15,030 --> 02:01:13,119 everyone okay we're going to get the 3208 02:01:17,270 --> 02:01:15,040 truth about ufos because the guy just 3209 02:01:19,350 --> 02:01:17,280 said it and i'm 11 years old but in the 3210 02:01:20,709 --> 02:01:19,360 time in between even after stephen 3211 02:01:23,109 --> 02:01:20,719 greer's uh 3212 02:01:24,790 --> 02:01:23,119 press club event other big things that 3213 02:01:27,030 --> 02:01:24,800 have happened 3214 02:01:29,109 --> 02:01:27,040 the wilson davis documents coming out 3215 02:01:31,589 --> 02:01:29,119 all of these sort of things i just never 3216 02:01:33,830 --> 02:01:31,599 felt like we were on the precipice i 3217 02:01:37,189 --> 02:01:33,840 think with nasa looking at it with 3218 02:01:40,390 --> 02:01:37,199 galileo looking at it with the military 3219 02:01:42,870 --> 02:01:40,400 looking at it with maybe a congressional 3220 02:01:45,350 --> 02:01:42,880 office set up through the gillibrand 3221 02:01:47,430 --> 02:01:45,360 amendment i think too many people are 3222 02:01:49,030 --> 02:01:47,440 looking and i think we've proven that 3223 02:01:51,350 --> 02:01:49,040 the phenomenon is real it's a 3224 02:01:53,430 --> 02:01:51,360 phenomenon's real and that many people 3225 02:01:55,189 --> 02:01:53,440 are looking somebody's going to figure 3226 02:01:57,270 --> 02:01:55,199 it out and i think we're on the 3227 02:02:00,790 --> 02:01:57,280 precipice of that answer 3228 02:02:03,270 --> 02:02:00,800 i love that man well okay so that gives 3229 02:02:05,189 --> 02:02:03,280 me hope with ufos how about alien life 3230 02:02:07,030 --> 02:02:05,199 what are you looking forward to most in 3231 02:02:07,990 --> 02:02:07,040 the search for that 3232 02:02:11,189 --> 02:02:08,000 so much 3233 02:02:13,350 --> 02:02:11,199 this is so crazy ryan in many ways 3234 02:02:15,910 --> 02:02:13,360 there's a race right when we were little 3235 02:02:17,430 --> 02:02:15,920 kids and there were ufo reports and 3236 02:02:18,709 --> 02:02:17,440 people go what can't be secret 3237 02:02:20,550 --> 02:02:18,719 technology because we're just not 3238 02:02:22,390 --> 02:02:20,560 evolved enough right like what we're 3239 02:02:23,750 --> 02:02:22,400 still fry you know we're barely getting 3240 02:02:25,830 --> 02:02:23,760 rockets to the moon we're definitely not 3241 02:02:28,149 --> 02:02:25,840 flying around it at mach 10 with no 3242 02:02:30,070 --> 02:02:28,159 sonic boom or whatever so there was this 3243 02:02:31,270 --> 02:02:30,080 constant move tour well there will be a 3244 02:02:32,709 --> 02:02:31,280 day 3245 02:02:34,950 --> 02:02:32,719 when 3246 02:02:36,950 --> 02:02:34,960 uh technology human technology is so 3247 02:02:39,109 --> 02:02:36,960 sophisticated that you could just 3248 02:02:41,109 --> 02:02:39,119 reliably say ah it's probably a secret 3249 02:02:43,510 --> 02:02:41,119 project and we just don't know about it 3250 02:02:45,270 --> 02:02:43,520 we're getting there but what's happening 3251 02:02:48,070 --> 02:02:45,280 at the same time is 3252 02:02:49,270 --> 02:02:48,080 an entire wave 3253 02:02:51,350 --> 02:02:49,280 of people 3254 02:02:52,709 --> 02:02:51,360 that are my age and younger some a 3255 02:02:55,109 --> 02:02:52,719 little older but 3256 02:02:56,470 --> 02:02:55,119 more or less gen xers 3257 02:02:59,750 --> 02:02:56,480 millennials 3258 02:03:01,910 --> 02:02:59,760 and gen zers are growing up in a world 3259 02:03:03,750 --> 02:03:01,920 where the idea of going to another 3260 02:03:05,109 --> 02:03:03,760 planet is not only not crazy it's 3261 02:03:06,870 --> 02:03:05,119 something we do 3262 02:03:09,109 --> 02:03:06,880 the idea of traveling in space is 3263 02:03:11,589 --> 02:03:09,119 something we do the idea that there are 3264 02:03:14,310 --> 02:03:11,599 planets around other stars is something 3265 02:03:16,310 --> 02:03:14,320 we just know now it's not some that you 3266 02:03:17,350 --> 02:03:16,320 know in the 90s we were still i was an 3267 02:03:20,709 --> 02:03:17,360 adult 3268 02:03:23,189 --> 02:03:20,719 in 1990 still at 21 years old ago are we 3269 02:03:24,870 --> 02:03:23,199 ever gonna find it and by 95 we found 3270 02:03:27,750 --> 02:03:24,880 the first one and now there's thousands 3271 02:03:30,550 --> 02:03:27,760 that we found so the technology and the 3272 02:03:33,109 --> 02:03:30,560 science keeps moving towards 3273 02:03:34,550 --> 02:03:33,119 that discovery and what i think is going 3274 02:03:36,870 --> 02:03:34,560 to happen 3275 02:03:38,709 --> 02:03:36,880 is if we don't get a big ufo 3276 02:03:39,669 --> 02:03:38,719 breakthrough in the next year or two 3277 02:03:41,669 --> 02:03:39,679 years 3278 02:03:44,070 --> 02:03:41,679 it won't matter because science will 3279 02:03:46,310 --> 02:03:44,080 catch up on his own i think the james 3280 02:03:49,030 --> 02:03:46,320 webb telescope i think the giant 3281 02:03:51,669 --> 02:03:49,040 magellan i think the levoir which has 3282 02:03:54,310 --> 02:03:51,679 been proposed to search for earth 2 i 3283 02:03:56,709 --> 02:03:54,320 think all these other observations and 3284 02:03:59,109 --> 02:03:56,719 all of these scientists programs i think 3285 02:04:00,870 --> 02:03:59,119 things like galileo what we're going to 3286 02:04:01,910 --> 02:04:00,880 find is we're going to find multiple 3287 02:04:04,149 --> 02:04:01,920 planets 3288 02:04:05,910 --> 02:04:04,159 with signs of life in their atmosphere 3289 02:04:07,990 --> 02:04:05,920 meaning an atmospheric composition that 3290 02:04:10,069 --> 02:04:08,000 really seems to imply their stuff living 3291 02:04:12,870 --> 02:04:10,079 there and then you get into a real 3292 02:04:15,430 --> 02:04:12,880 simple question if the cosmos is for our 3293 02:04:17,589 --> 02:04:15,440 galaxy is 13 and a half billion years 3294 02:04:19,109 --> 02:04:17,599 old and ursula been around for the last 3295 02:04:21,589 --> 02:04:19,119 four and change 3296 02:04:23,589 --> 02:04:21,599 what about all these planets many of 3297 02:04:25,350 --> 02:04:23,599 which had a big head start on us if we 3298 02:04:27,189 --> 02:04:25,360 start finding signs of life in their 3299 02:04:28,870 --> 02:04:27,199 atmosphere are you going to tell me 3300 02:04:31,109 --> 02:04:28,880 those are more primitive even though 3301 02:04:33,189 --> 02:04:31,119 they got here first i mean if you don't 3302 02:04:35,990 --> 02:04:33,199 believe in evolution baby 3303 02:04:38,229 --> 02:04:36,000 but uh yeah so i think these two worlds 3304 02:04:40,550 --> 02:04:38,239 are getting ready to collide i think we 3305 02:04:42,950 --> 02:04:40,560 are going to find signs of life in the 3306 02:04:45,750 --> 02:04:42,960 atmosphere the planets in the trappist 3307 02:04:48,390 --> 02:04:45,760 system potentially we have seven planets 3308 02:04:50,830 --> 02:04:48,400 to look at there at least four of which 3309 02:04:53,030 --> 02:04:50,840 are probably rocky and in the habitable 3310 02:04:54,950 --> 02:04:53,040 zone and then there are proposed 3311 02:04:58,470 --> 02:04:54,960 missions to send a telescope or 3312 02:05:00,149 --> 02:04:58,480 observatory out to a little over 500 au 3313 02:05:02,149 --> 02:05:00,159 from earth which is an au is the 3314 02:05:03,270 --> 02:05:02,159 distance from earth to the sun and 3315 02:05:05,430 --> 02:05:03,280 without getting into all the 3316 02:05:07,030 --> 02:05:05,440 technicalities when you go out there you 3317 02:05:09,030 --> 02:05:07,040 can take advantage of something called 3318 02:05:11,589 --> 02:05:09,040 gravitational lensing and you can 3319 02:05:13,910 --> 02:05:11,599 directly image a planet so we can send a 3320 02:05:16,470 --> 02:05:13,920 telescope out to this spot and it can 3321 02:05:18,310 --> 02:05:16,480 take pictures of these planets it can 3322 02:05:20,950 --> 02:05:18,320 look right at it imagine you take a 3323 02:05:23,750 --> 02:05:20,960 night picture of trappist-1c 3324 02:05:26,870 --> 02:05:23,760 and you see city lights in there right 3325 02:05:29,109 --> 02:05:26,880 like a map signatures baby yeah right 3326 02:05:31,910 --> 02:05:29,119 and that's coming man those things are 3327 02:05:34,390 --> 02:05:31,920 coming in our lifetime right so even if 3328 02:05:37,270 --> 02:05:34,400 the whole ufo thing just went to crap 3329 02:05:39,270 --> 02:05:37,280 and the military never did anything and 3330 02:05:41,990 --> 02:05:39,280 and avilo came out and said yeah i 3331 02:05:43,910 --> 02:05:42,000 didn't find anything you know and uh and 3332 02:05:45,669 --> 02:05:43,920 nasa came out said yeah it was a bunch 3333 02:05:47,669 --> 02:05:45,679 of weather balloons and everybody had 3334 02:05:49,030 --> 02:05:47,679 told us the worst answer 3335 02:05:50,629 --> 02:05:49,040 i don't think it will matter i think 3336 02:05:52,470 --> 02:05:50,639 we're going to find signs of life 3337 02:05:55,189 --> 02:05:52,480 through good old-fashioned mainstream 3338 02:05:56,870 --> 02:05:55,199 science then what happens if we find the 3339 02:05:58,950 --> 02:05:56,880 signs of life around a thousand 3340 02:06:01,189 --> 02:05:58,960 different planets do we all sit around 3341 02:06:04,470 --> 02:06:01,199 and go none of them have intelligent 3342 02:06:05,750 --> 02:06:04,480 life and they've all evolved after us or 3343 02:06:08,470 --> 02:06:05,760 did we start 3344 02:06:10,390 --> 02:06:08,480 looking at the possibility that in a 14 3345 02:06:12,709 --> 02:06:10,400 billion year old cosmos where we're here 3346 02:06:15,589 --> 02:06:12,719 for the last four that some intelligent 3347 02:06:18,069 --> 02:06:15,599 of life evolved elsewhere 3348 02:06:19,990 --> 02:06:18,079 before us and has the technological 3349 02:06:21,669 --> 02:06:20,000 know-how to come here and visit even if 3350 02:06:25,030 --> 02:06:21,679 it's just with probes which is something 3351 02:06:27,910 --> 02:06:25,040 we do all the stinking time right ah 3352 02:06:30,149 --> 02:06:27,920 that gives me so much hope man i knew 3353 02:06:32,390 --> 02:06:30,159 man i'm not good 3354 02:06:35,189 --> 02:06:32,400 good stuff is coming people science is 3355 02:06:37,030 --> 02:06:35,199 going to answer these questions 3356 02:06:38,870 --> 02:06:37,040 well good stuff is coming chris that's 3357 02:06:41,830 --> 02:06:38,880 how we're going to end it man please 3358 02:06:43,910 --> 02:06:41,840 tell us what comes next for you over at 3359 02:06:47,109 --> 02:06:43,920 the debrief what we can expect in the 3360 02:06:48,629 --> 02:06:47,119 coming week month maybe and um yeah 3361 02:06:50,310 --> 02:06:48,639 where we can find everything you're up 3362 02:06:52,550 --> 02:06:50,320 to tease us a little bit if you don't 3363 02:06:54,790 --> 02:06:52,560 you see me on twitter tomorrow tell me 3364 02:06:57,189 --> 02:06:54,800 chris quit tweeting and go back to work 3365 02:06:59,030 --> 02:06:57,199 because i have all the information came 3366 02:07:00,229 --> 02:06:59,040 in today the last 3367 02:07:03,430 --> 02:07:00,239 photos 3368 02:07:06,709 --> 02:07:03,440 uh videos links everything i needed for 3369 02:07:08,229 --> 02:07:06,719 the warp bubble story is in my hand 3370 02:07:10,069 --> 02:07:08,239 so tomorrow 3371 02:07:12,629 --> 02:07:10,079 when i wake up and i have my first 3372 02:07:14,870 --> 02:07:12,639 couple cups of alzheimer's preventing 3373 02:07:16,229 --> 02:07:14,880 diabetes fighting coffee 3374 02:07:17,910 --> 02:07:16,239 i will get launched into the 3375 02:07:20,870 --> 02:07:17,920 stratosphere and i will finish that 3376 02:07:23,030 --> 02:07:20,880 story i will turn it into mj and he will 3377 02:07:25,669 --> 02:07:23,040 either run it on thursday friday or 3378 02:07:28,069 --> 02:07:25,679 monday depending on his whims times and 3379 02:07:30,870 --> 02:07:28,079 availability but i can tell you that a 3380
