1 00:00:05,749 --> 00:00:03,169 welcome travel back in time with us 2 00:00:17,900 --> 00:00:05,759 right now for rare UFO content 3 00:00:26,410 --> 00:00:21,090 [Applause] 4 00:00:30,170 --> 00:00:26,420 [Music] 5 00:00:34,729 --> 00:00:30,180 from the air age through the missile age 6 00:00:39,709 --> 00:00:37,549 our space age Heritage of knowledge is 7 00:00:41,990 --> 00:00:39,719 older than a decade older than a century 8 00:00:44,209 --> 00:00:42,000 older than a millennium 9 00:00:46,130 --> 00:00:44,219 our scientific knowledge has evolved 10 00:00:49,910 --> 00:00:46,140 Through the Ages concurrently with the 11 00:00:52,069 --> 00:00:49,920 minds of men our capacity to learn has 12 00:00:54,889 --> 00:00:52,079 expanded in the process 13 00:00:57,290 --> 00:00:54,899 a challenging idea of exploring beyond 14 00:00:58,189 --> 00:00:57,300 our planetary boundaries is as old as 15 00:01:01,630 --> 00:00:58,199 history 16 00:01:04,070 --> 00:01:01,640 probably as old as Humanity itself 17 00:01:05,810 --> 00:01:04,080 concepts of the universe have changed 18 00:01:08,210 --> 00:01:05,820 just as our knowledge of the Earth 19 00:01:10,490 --> 00:01:08,220 itself has changed 20 00:01:12,109 --> 00:01:10,500 compress the entire history of the earth 21 00:01:15,170 --> 00:01:12,119 into one year 22 00:01:17,810 --> 00:01:15,180 on this time scale eight months of the 23 00:01:20,270 --> 00:01:17,820 year would be devoid of life during the 24 00:01:22,370 --> 00:01:20,280 succeeding two months simple bacteria 25 00:01:24,230 --> 00:01:22,380 would come into existence 26 00:01:26,090 --> 00:01:24,240 mammals would not appear until the 27 00:01:28,730 --> 00:01:26,100 second week in December 28 00:01:32,270 --> 00:01:28,740 man would walk into the scene at 11 45 29 00:01:34,490 --> 00:01:32,280 pm on December 31st 30 00:01:36,469 --> 00:01:34,500 recorded history would account for but 31 00:01:39,530 --> 00:01:36,479 the final ticks of the clock 32 00:01:42,350 --> 00:01:39,540 man's Aerospace achievements little more 33 00:01:46,030 --> 00:01:42,360 than the flicker of an eyelash 34 00:01:49,550 --> 00:01:46,040 [Music] 35 00:01:51,889 --> 00:01:49,560 here ends the world 36 00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:51,899 so set an ancient map inscribed at the 37 00:01:56,030 --> 00:01:53,600 pillars of Hercules 38 00:01:57,830 --> 00:01:56,040 the two-dimensional world of early 39 00:01:59,569 --> 00:01:57,840 history was narrow 40 00:02:03,830 --> 00:01:59,579 because man's knowledge of his 41 00:02:07,370 --> 00:02:05,330 Ptolemy 42 00:02:09,229 --> 00:02:07,380 for a thousand years considered to be 43 00:02:11,390 --> 00:02:09,239 the greatest Authority on astronomy 44 00:02:14,170 --> 00:02:11,400 placed the Earth at the center of the 45 00:02:20,390 --> 00:02:18,650 Copernicus in 1543 Advanced the idea 46 00:02:23,030 --> 00:02:20,400 that the sun was at the center of the 47 00:02:25,869 --> 00:02:23,040 planetary orbits identified the Earth as 48 00:02:30,050 --> 00:02:25,879 one of these planets 49 00:02:32,270 --> 00:02:30,060 Kepler in the 17th century described his 50 00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:32,280 three great laws of planetary motion 51 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:34,620 setting a pattern for the study of the 52 00:02:37,869 --> 00:02:35,530 solar system 53 00:02:41,330 --> 00:02:37,879 [Music] 54 00:02:44,030 --> 00:02:41,340 Galileo 17th century inventor of the 55 00:02:46,430 --> 00:02:44,040 telescope who opened a new window to the 56 00:02:49,190 --> 00:02:46,440 skies with a device that could look at 57 00:02:51,830 --> 00:02:49,200 both sides of the present using the 58 00:02:56,330 --> 00:02:51,840 antique light from distant stars to 59 00:03:00,949 --> 00:02:57,770 Newton 60 00:03:02,570 --> 00:03:00,959 who said of his third law of motion this 61 00:03:05,750 --> 00:03:02,580 is the principle that will enable 62 00:03:09,530 --> 00:03:05,760 Mankind in later centuries to undertake 63 00:03:13,970 --> 00:03:11,330 Mongolia 64 00:03:17,690 --> 00:03:13,980 two brothers sons of a paper maker from 65 00:03:19,790 --> 00:03:17,700 the little French town of anone in 1783 66 00:03:22,009 --> 00:03:19,800 achieved by balloon 67 00:03:24,770 --> 00:03:22,019 what the Wright brothers 68 00:03:28,369 --> 00:03:24,780 the bicycle makers from Dayton Ohio did 69 00:03:30,589 --> 00:03:28,379 in 1903 in a strange new device called 70 00:03:32,509 --> 00:03:30,599 an airplane 71 00:03:35,570 --> 00:03:32,519 and Goddard 72 00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:35,580 who in 1926 launched a liquid-fueled 73 00:03:43,369 --> 00:03:39,680 rocket in 1935 sent a rocket 74 00:03:46,610 --> 00:03:43,379 7500 feet into the sky 75 00:03:49,009 --> 00:03:46,620 space is a place of knowledge and of 76 00:03:52,729 --> 00:03:49,019 progress 77 00:03:56,270 --> 00:03:52,739 space is the new psychological Frontier 78 00:03:58,369 --> 00:03:56,280 it provides us an emotional challenge it 79 00:03:59,570 --> 00:03:58,379 stimulates our desires for knowledge and 80 00:04:02,809 --> 00:03:59,580 adventure 81 00:04:04,309 --> 00:04:02,819 it increases our fears it feeds our 82 00:04:07,430 --> 00:04:04,319 ambitions 83 00:04:10,610 --> 00:04:07,440 space is the new scientific Frontier the 84 00:04:12,949 --> 00:04:10,620 sky is no longer the limit 85 00:04:15,949 --> 00:04:12,959 human knowledge is doubling every decade 86 00:04:18,469 --> 00:04:15,959 for ignorance is our enemy just as 87 00:04:21,110 --> 00:04:18,479 surely as knowledge is power power for 88 00:04:23,689 --> 00:04:21,120 good or power for evil 89 00:04:26,150 --> 00:04:23,699 man's judgment in the applications of 90 00:04:29,150 --> 00:04:26,160 Technologies particularly in the fertile 91 00:04:31,390 --> 00:04:29,160 fields of space May well determine human 92 00:04:34,790 --> 00:04:31,400 Destiny 93 00:04:37,550 --> 00:04:34,800 space is the new defense Frontier 94 00:04:39,650 --> 00:04:37,560 survival of the fittest has acquired new 95 00:04:42,650 --> 00:04:39,660 meaning in our time 96 00:04:46,310 --> 00:04:42,660 strength has become the index to peace 97 00:04:49,850 --> 00:04:46,320 space is a place for security 98 00:04:53,629 --> 00:04:49,860 space begins just 50 miles away 99 00:04:56,930 --> 00:04:53,639 how far it extends no one can tell 100 00:04:59,570 --> 00:04:56,940 we do not aspire to conquer space we 101 00:05:02,030 --> 00:04:59,580 seek rather to understand it to become 102 00:05:04,610 --> 00:05:02,040 proficient in space to the degree that 103 00:05:06,670 --> 00:05:04,620 we have adapted to the Seas and to the 104 00:05:10,249 --> 00:05:06,680 air 105 00:05:12,830 --> 00:05:10,259 space is not really remote 106 00:05:15,469 --> 00:05:12,840 and because it is close it becomes an 107 00:05:17,990 --> 00:05:15,479 area of possible threat just as the 108 00:05:20,510 --> 00:05:18,000 ability to fly made the Airways a threat 109 00:05:22,790 --> 00:05:20,520 or the capacity to navigate oceans made 110 00:05:25,550 --> 00:05:22,800 the Seas a threat 111 00:05:27,830 --> 00:05:25,560 space is a place to preserve peace 112 00:05:30,290 --> 00:05:27,840 through understanding 113 00:05:32,490 --> 00:05:30,300 but true understanding of space will 114 00:05:33,790 --> 00:05:32,500 come only if peace is protected 115 00:05:36,469 --> 00:05:33,800 [Music] 116 00:05:39,409 --> 00:05:36,479 scientific Technical and strategic 117 00:05:42,590 --> 00:05:39,419 preeminence in space must be reserved 118 00:05:45,650 --> 00:05:42,600 for the forces of freedom 119 00:05:46,909 --> 00:05:45,660 our Ventures into space once imagined 120 00:05:49,430 --> 00:05:46,919 now real 121 00:05:51,830 --> 00:05:49,440 lead us not away from this Earth 122 00:05:54,650 --> 00:05:51,840 but towards a better understanding of 123 00:05:56,330 --> 00:05:54,660 our planet of our solar system 124 00:05:59,629 --> 00:05:56,340 and perhaps 125 00:06:05,529 --> 00:06:00,950 space 126 00:06:13,070 --> 00:06:09,189 we shall not cease from exploration 127 00:06:17,090 --> 00:06:13,080 and the end of all our exploring 128 00:06:22,130 --> 00:06:17,100 will be to arrive where we started
