worked on this for 95 00:04:59,749 --> 00:04:57,600 over two decades 96 00:05:01,830 --> 00:04:59,759 at one point the number 20 000 was 97 00:05:04,230 --> 00:05:01,840 thrown out by the senior scientist that 98 00:05:07,350 --> 00:05:04,240 in the 20 plus years of this project so 99 00:05:08,790 --> 00:05:07,360 far 20 000 people have worked on it 100 00:05:10,870 --> 00:05:08,800 it was

going to be 107 00:05:24,710 --> 00:05:23,440 at least one more major release later 108 00:05:26,710 --> 00:05:24,720 this week 109 00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:26,720 um right now i think 110 00:05:31,430

00:05:36,639 basically um maybe not like as hyped as 114 00:05:41,749 --> 00:05:38,800 this one or whatever but i mean this was 115 00:05:44,150 --> 00:05:41,759 the first release so but um and they 116 00:05:46,469 --> 00:05:44,160 kept stressing the fact and in all their 117 00:05:48,629 --> 00:05:46,479 uh speeches and all their you know 118 00:05:49,830 --> 00:05:48,639 introductory uh

mind because people see this and 122 00:05:58,390 --> 00:05:56,720 you know they're like oh okay and then 123 00:06:00,790 --> 00:05:58,400 they move on with their life but this is 124 00:06:02,710 --> 00:06:00,800 just the beginning of the work that'll 125 00:06:04,950 --> 00:06:02,720 be done with the james telescope so i 126 00:06:06,790 --> 00:06:04,960 i'm looking forward to 127 00:06:09,110 --> 00:06:06,800 not only continuing to look at these 128 00:06:11,430 --> 00:06:09,120 pictures but to see what's next 129 00:06:12,550 --> 00:06:11,440 absolutely absolutely completely agreed 130 00:06:14,550 --> 00:06:12,560 so this picture that you're showing 131 00:06:17,270 --> 00:06:14,560 right now is it was the first picture 132 00:06:21,110 --> 00:06:17,280 that they revealed uh the deep field 133 00:06:24,230 --> 00:06:21,120 picture um which is just an amazingly 134 00:06:26,230 --> 00:06:24,240 great um desktop photo for the old 135 00:06:27,670 -->

um 139 00:06:32,710 --> 00:06:30,960 it 140 00:06:34,870 --> 00:06:32,720 there was an event on monday where we 141 00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:34,880 had nasa administrator bill nielsen who 142 00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:36,880 you're a big fan of and i am as well 143 00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:39,120 he's a real folksy guy that seems like 144 00:06:43,990 --> 00:06:41,360 he he's he's 145 00:06:46,550 --> 00:06:44,000 he's honest about transparency efforts 146 00:06:49,029 --> 00:06:46,560 as more than more so than we've often 147 00:06:51,110 --> 00:06:49,039 got in the past from nasa administrators 148 00:06:52,710 --> 00:06:51,120 uh also president joe biden and vice 149 00:06:54,469 --> 00:06:52,720 president kamala harris were there and 150 00:06:56,309 --> 00:06:54,479 they

00:07:00,240 catch that event sean what'd you think 154 00:07:05,029 --> 00:07:03,199 of it when you saw it it was uh it was 155 00:07:07,909 --> 00:07:05,039 incredibly 156 00:07:10,230 --> 00:07:07,919 uh kind of bizarre to me only because 157 00:07:13,350 --> 00:07:10,240 first of all they were so late 158 00:07:17,189 --> 00:07:13,360 i think maybe they're over an hour late 159 00:07:19,029 --> 00:07:17,199 and then they got to it and uh you know 160 00:07:21,350 --> 00:07:19,039 the speeches or whatever were fine but 161 00:07:22,230 --> 00:07:21,360 it was just so short it was here and 162 00:07:24,309 --> 00:07:22,240 gone 163 00:07:26,790 --> 00:07:24,319 like in an instant 164 00:07:28,950 --> 00:07:26,800 my favorite thing was what uh 165 00:07:30,469 --> 00:07:28,960 president biden said at the end when he 166 00:07:32,870 --> 00:07:30,479 inquired about what the press would be 167 00:07:35,830 --> 00:07:32,880 like in the other planets 168 00:07:37,430 --> 00:07:35,840 i thought that was uh very 169 00:07:39,350 --> 00:07:37,440 very interesting and then you could 170 00:07:41,510 --> 00:07:39,360 almost tell that like 171 00:07:43,350

00:09:18,320 um 216 00:09:21,590 --> 00:09:19,760 now part of the point of this image 217 00:09:23,829 --> 00:09:21,600 being released as i put it yesterday or 218 00:09:26,389 --> 00:09:23,839 two days ago is that the image is 219 00:09:28,550 --> 00:09:26,399 teeming with galaxies that everywhere we 220 00:09:29,990 --> 00:09:28,560 point in there i mean those though the 221 00:09:32,470 --> 00:09:30,000 majority of what we're seeing in there 222 00:09:35,269 --> 00:09:32,480 are not stars those are whole galaxies 223 00:09:38,949 --> 00:09:35,279 like that one right there and so um you 224 00:09:42,710 --> 00:09:38,959 know each galaxy a rough estimate for 225 00:09:47,030 --> 00:09:42,720 how many stars would be in a galaxy 226 00:09:50,150 --> 00:09:47,040 is tens to hundreds of billions of stars 227 00:09:53,269 --> 00:09:50,160 and within a galaxy and most of those 228 00:09:55,829 --> 00:09:53,279 are going to have planets around them so 229 00:09:57,350 --> 00:09:55,839 an image like this is an extraordinarily 230 00:09:59,590 --> 00:09:57,360 mind-boggling 231 00:10:01,350 --> 00:09:59,600 kind of piece of data just on the face 232 00:10:02,790 --> 00:10:01,360 of it with that right 233 00:10:05,590 --> 00:10:02,800 right 234 00:10:07,590 --> 00:10:05,600 i mean we had as bill nelson put it on 235 00:10:09,670 --> 00:10:07,600 that first day this deep field image is 236 00:10:11,509 --> 00:10:09,680 equivalent to the amount of space we'd 237 00:10:14,150 --> 00:10:11,519 view from here on earth if you took one 238 00:10:16,389 --> 00:10:14,160 grain of sand and stuck it out at arm's 239 00:10:18,710 --> 00:10:16,399 level length that would be the amount of 240 00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:18,720 kind of the sky that it would cover 241 00:10:23,350 --> 00:10:20,880 and it's so tiny right i mean i 242 00:10:25,829 --> 00:10:23,360 seriously think about that can you even 243 00:10:28,150 --> 00:10:25,839 go to a beach and pick up only one grain 244 00:10:30,710 --> 00:10:28,160 of sand it's incredibly difficult like 245 00:10:32,790 --> 00:10:30,720 you have to 246 00:10:34,310 --> 00:10:32,800 really try and then if you do that you 247 00:10:35,590 --> 00:10:34,320 could probably barely see it on your 248 00:10:37,509 --> 00:10:35,600 finger 249 00:10:39,509 --> 00:10:37,519 that's this and there's like what a 250 00:10:41,030 --> 00:10:39,519 thousand galaxies in here i heard like a 251 00:10:42,870 --> 00:10:41,040 rough number about that 252 00:10:45,269 --> 00:10:42,880 yeah i mean i don't i can't even count 253 00:10:47,030 --> 00:10:45,279 how many are in there and i i'm sure i 254 00:10:49,990 --> 00:10:47,040 get the number wrong but it's 255 00:10:51,269 --> 00:10:50,000 astonishing and i think from from what i 256 00:10:52,310 --> 00:10:51,279 heard from 257 00:10:53,670 --> 00:10:52,320 from 258 00:11:05,110 --> 00:10:53,680 the 259 00:11:08,150 --> 00:11:05,120 stars that are in our 260 00:11:11,030 --> 00:11:08,160 our um galaxy in the milky way and we're 261 00:11:12,630 --> 00:11:11,040 kind of looking through them yeah and 262 00:11:14,230 --> 00:11:12,640 they kind of let the lens flare sit 263 00:11:15,990 --> 00:11:14,240 there so that you can have an ace 264 00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:16,000 because it's pretty and b 265 00:11:20,230 --> 00:11:17,920 um so that you have a rough estimate i 266 00:11:22,550 --> 00:11:20,240 guess of distance and looking out into 267 00:11:24,660 --> 00:11:22,560 the deep beyond over there we're not 268 00:11:26,710 --> 00:11:24,670 alone i just have to say it i mean 269 00:11:27,750 --> 00:11:26,720 [Laughter] 270 00:11:30,630 --> 00:11:27,760 i mean 271 00:11:33,990 --> 00:11:30,640 i think it's almost like impossible 272 00:11:35,670 --> 00:11:34,000 to be alone at this point you know yeah 273 00:11:38,949 --> 00:11:35,680 like the percentages 274 00:11:41,190 --> 00:11:38,959 are are not in the favor of being alone 275 00:11:43,430 --> 00:11:41,200 you know what does that mean what forum 276 00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:43,440 or what shape does 277 00:11:47,509 --> 00:11:45,920 does life take i have no freaking clue 278 00:11:49,910 --> 00:11:47,519 but i can tell you one thing if somebody 279 00:11:51,190 --> 00:11:49,920 came up to me is like 280 00:11:53,910 --> 00:11:51,200 i know how much you got in your bank 281 00:11:56,870 --> 00:11:53,920 account and i want you to bet it all all 282 00:12:00,550 --> 00:11:56,880 in texas no hold poker 283 00:12:02,389 --> 00:12:00,560 put all your chips in on life 284 00:12:03,590 --> 00:12:02,399 i wouldn't even have to think about it i 285 00:12:05,190 --> 00:12:03,600 mean there's 286 00:12:11,110 --> 00:12:05,200 so many 287 00:12:13,670 --> 00:12:11,120 you know if if we were alone the the 288 00:12:15,269 --> 00:12:13,680 miracle of that would do like i can't 289 00:12:17,509 --> 00:12:15,279 even comprehend that that'd be harder 290 00:12:21,269 --> 00:12:17,519 than winning like a million powerballs 291 00:12:24,310 --> 00:12:21,279 in your lifetime yeah absolutely yeah 292 00:12:27,509 --> 00:12:24,320 i totally agree you know and and it was 293 00:12:30,150 --> 00:12:27,519 really heartening and beautiful to see 294 00:12:32,550 --> 00:12:30,160 after this photo was released seeing it 295 00:12:35,350 --> 00:12:32,560 kind of pop up and p and people 296 00:12:38,710 --> 00:12:35,360 retweeting it and seeing everybody from 297 00:12:41,350 --> 00:12:38,720 like professional athletes too i saw um 298 00:12:44,389 --> 00:12:41,360 uh america's sweetheart henry winkler uh 299 00:12:47,670 --> 00:12:44,399 the fonz also of the wonderful 300 00:12:48,870 --> 00:12:47,680 hit murder comedy barry which i love um 301 00:12:50,629 --> 00:12:48,880 and um 302 00:12:52,790 --> 00:12:50,639 he's a great fisherman too i mean henry 303 00:12:54,870 --> 00:12:52,800 winkler he's got it all a lot of people 304 00:12:56,870 --> 00:12:54,880 don't know that yeah he looks like a 305 00:12:58,870 --> 00:12:56,880 good hugger as well which i appreciate 306 00:13:00,550 --> 00:12:58,880 but anyway you know he was like his line 307 00:13:02,069 --> 00:13:00,560 was like you know i know in my heart 308 00:13:03,350 --> 00:13:02,079 that we're not alone 309 00:13:05,430 --> 00:13:03,360 and um 310 00:13:08,470 --> 00:13:05,440 and something interesting about henry 311 00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:08,480 winkler actually in relation to where 312 00:13:11,990 --> 00:13:10,160 i'm from 313 00:13:14,629 --> 00:13:12,000 uh milwaukee 314 00:13:18,230 --> 00:13:14,639 yeah and it was a big to-do 315 00:13:19,910 --> 00:13:18,240 and it's called the bronze fonz 316 00:13:22,310 --> 00:13:19,920 and they put a statue of him that's 317 00:13:25,190 --> 00:13:22,320 right they put a statue of him 318 00:13:26,949 --> 00:13:25,200 by the river over here 319 00:13:29,190 --> 00:13:26,959 really pretty 320 00:13:31,670 --> 00:13:29,200 it was pretty weird because um i was 321 00:13:33,030 --> 00:13:31,680 thinking like uh of all the people why 322 00:13:35,430 --> 00:13:33,040 would you 323 00:13:36,790 --> 00:13:35,440 show a statue of the bronze fawns by the 324 00:13:38,310 --> 00:13:36,800 river 325 00:13:40,310 --> 00:13:38,320 it was pretty weird people would you 326 00:13:41,829 --> 00:13:40,320 know obviously do weird things to it 327 00:13:46,389 --> 00:13:41,839 take pictures and stuff i'll just show 328 00:13:49,350 --> 00:13:48,230 there he is oh wow there he is the font 329 00:13:51,189 --> 00:13:49,360 he's right there 330 00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:51,199 now is it life size is it bigger than 331 00:13:54,949 --> 00:13:52,720 life size or 332 00:13:57,189 --> 00:13:54,959 that's a good question because i think 333 00:13:58,550 --> 00:13:57,199 it's life size but if it is he's a 334 00:14:00,870 --> 00:13:58,560 pretty short guy 335 00:14:02,710 --> 00:14:00,880 oh he is kind of a short guy yeah i mean 336 00:14:04,069 --> 00:14:02,720 not you know nothing against you know 337 00:14:05,910 --> 00:14:04,079 the vertically challenged or whatever 338 00:14:08,310 --> 00:14:05,920 but i think that he's something like 339 00:14:09,910 --> 00:14:08,320 five seven or five eight he's a little 340 00:14:11,430 --> 00:14:09,920 he's you know 341 00:14:13,030 --> 00:14:11,440 would you think the fonz was that height 342 00:14:14,550 --> 00:14:13,040 i'm not sure you know what i mean it's 343 00:14:16,230 --> 00:14:14,560 hard to tell it's always hard to tell on 344 00:14:17,750 --> 00:14:16,240 tv especially when you like the person 345 00:14:18,870 --> 00:14:17,760 you always imagine they're a lot taller 346 00:14:21,110 --> 00:14:18,880 than they are 347 00:14:23,110 --> 00:14:21,120 yeah yeah and stars you kind of always 348 00:14:25,430 --> 00:14:23,120 think they're going to be bigger than 349 00:14:27,269 --> 00:14:25,440 they are some you know or i often did in 350 00:14:29,030 --> 00:14:27,279 the past yeah i think the only per one 351 00:14:30,710 --> 00:14:29,040 of the only people that i've seen the 352 00:14:32,310 --> 00:14:30,720 two people that i think that i've seen 353 00:14:33,750 --> 00:14:32,320 that actually 354 00:14:36,389 --> 00:14:33,760 were as big as i thought they were going 355 00:14:38,470 --> 00:14:36,399 to be were um conan o'brien and thurston 356 00:14:41,110 --> 00:14:38,480 moore from sonic hughes those are those 357 00:14:42,790 --> 00:14:41,120 two guys are super super super tall it's 358 00:14:44,629 --> 00:14:42,800 crazy oh and charcoal 359 00:14:46,870 --> 00:14:44,639 i thought james lindonly was going to be 360 00:14:50,230 --> 00:14:46,880 like 8-4 but 361 00:14:53,030 --> 00:14:50,240 yeah no he's only 7-4 it's crazy right 362 00:14:55,829 --> 00:14:53,040 weird so the next picture you want to 363 00:14:59,030 --> 00:14:55,839 move on to the next one sure sure 364 00:15:01,269 --> 00:14:59,040 um i mean yeah let's see 365 00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:01,279 there we go okay so let's go to the next 366 00:15:08,069 --> 00:15:07,030 so this is um 367 00:15:13,430 --> 00:15:08,079 this 368 00:15:17,310 --> 00:15:13,440 information from 369 00:15:20,790 --> 00:15:17,320 uh the hot gas giant exoplanet wasp 370 00:15:22,629 --> 00:15:20,800 96b rolls right off the tongue right and 371 00:15:24,629 --> 00:15:22,639 it's rolled out this this data was 372 00:15:26,470 --> 00:15:24,639 rolled out in the live broadcast by 373 00:15:29,030 --> 00:15:26,480 representatives from the canadian space 374 00:15:31,110 --> 00:15:29,040 agency so this we see a graph showing 375 00:15:33,829 --> 00:15:31,120 the atmospheric conditions that they're 376 00:15:35,590 --> 00:15:33,839 able to detect with the telescope using 377 00:15:38,629 --> 00:15:35,600 uh infrared data 378 00:15:40,470 --> 00:15:38,639 and spectroscopy and they do this by 379 00:15:43,350 --> 00:15:40,480 waiting for the 380 00:15:45,749 --> 00:15:43,360 the planet to pass in front of a star 381 00:15:48,230 --> 00:15:45,759 and then they're able to kind of zoom in 382 00:15:50,870 --> 00:15:48,240 and look at the kind of like haze around 383 00:15:53,110 --> 00:15:50,880 the planet's atmosphere and gauge a lot 384 00:15:55,509 --> 00:15:53,120 from that right and so and what did they 385 00:15:57,430 --> 00:15:55,519 find here water i mean you see it water 386 00:15:59,590 --> 00:15:57,440 water water water water right 387 00:16:01,269 --> 00:15:59,600 water in the atmosphere lots of water 388 00:16:04,310 --> 00:16:01,279 and cloud formations 389 00:16:06,150 --> 00:16:04,320 now you know that's an extraordinarily 390 00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:06,160 good sign in terms of the hunt for 391 00:16:10,389 --> 00:16:08,240 extraterrestrial life at least as far as 392 00:16:12,389 --> 00:16:10,399 the kinds of life we're caught we would 393 00:16:14,470 --> 00:16:12,399 commonly find here on earth and this is 394 00:16:16,710 --> 00:16:14,480 water that was actually on an 395 00:16:18,710 --> 00:16:16,720 extraordinarily hot planet 396 00:16:20,629 --> 00:16:18,720 so it was a little bit of a surprise 397 00:16:22,629 --> 00:16:20,639 that it would be there it's basically in 398 00:16:25,910 --> 00:16:22,639 them like mist and there's haze on the 399 00:16:27,509 --> 00:16:25,920 planet and you know from what i recall 400 00:16:29,670 --> 00:16:27,519 that's where a lot of the water source 401 00:16:31,749 --> 00:16:29,680 was coming from the h2o 402 00:16:33,189 --> 00:16:31,759 but it's just incredible how you know 403 00:16:34,790 --> 00:16:33,199 how 404 00:16:36,389 --> 00:16:34,800 um 405 00:16:38,470 --> 00:16:36,399 common 406 00:16:40,710 --> 00:16:38,480 water is right and then you add that to 407 00:16:42,150 --> 00:16:40,720 how common uh i don't know galaxies are 408 00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:42,160 planets are 409 00:16:45,749 --> 00:16:44,160 you know all the molecules that make us 410 00:16:50,069 --> 00:16:45,759 who we are how common they are 411 00:16:51,509 --> 00:16:50,079 throughout the universe we're not alone 412 00:16:53,749 --> 00:16:51,519 now it's also awesome because as i 413 00:16:56,230 --> 00:16:53,759 recall now don't like don't quote me on 414 00:16:59,590 --> 00:16:56,240 this but i think that this planet is 415 00:17:01,269 --> 00:16:59,600 about a thousand light years away from 416 00:17:04,630 --> 00:17:01,279 us i think that's what they said about a 417 00:17:06,390 --> 00:17:04,640 thousand light years away from us so a 418 00:17:07,909 --> 00:17:06,400 you know this is 419 00:17:10,949 --> 00:17:07,919 we would be looking at what was 420 00:17:13,429 --> 00:17:10,959 happening a thousand years ago 421 00:17:15,909 --> 00:17:13,439 right because you know the light took 422 00:17:17,829 --> 00:17:15,919 you know a light year it's you know 100 423 00:17:20,309 --> 00:17:17,839 000. okay a thousand light years and 424 00:17:23,110 --> 00:17:20,319 then on top of that 425 00:17:25,590 --> 00:17:23,120 you know it's amazing that that 426 00:17:27,429 --> 00:17:25,600 the piece of engineering that like crazy 427 00:17:29,990 --> 00:17:27,439 paper kite that they put into space 428 00:17:32,470 --> 00:17:30,000 that's doing all this photography and 429 00:17:34,470 --> 00:17:32,480 and spectroscopy that it can actually 430 00:17:35,909 --> 00:17:34,480 detect like clouds in the atmosphere of 431 00:17:37,830 --> 00:17:35,919 something that that's 432 00:17:39,990 --> 00:17:37,840 you know this is this is actually kind 433 00:17:41,510 --> 00:17:40,000 of child's play to it in a way because 434 00:17:44,150 --> 00:17:41,520 of some of the other data that we're 435 00:17:46,150 --> 00:17:44,160 picking up from other places um 436 00:17:46,950 --> 00:17:46,160 which is extraordinary you know what i 437 00:17:49,669 --> 00:17:46,960 mean 438 00:17:52,789 --> 00:17:49,679 like um just in our lifetime just in our 439 00:17:53,830 --> 00:17:52,799 lifetime sean you and i um you know we 440 00:17:57,029 --> 00:17:53,840 wondered 441 00:17:59,430 --> 00:17:57,039 if we were going to get data about water 442 00:18:02,310 --> 00:17:59,440 on mars you know what i mean and here we 443 00:18:03,430 --> 00:18:02,320 are looking way way way beyond that it's 444 00:18:04,470 --> 00:18:03,440 super cool 445 00:18:06,310 --> 00:18:04,480 okay 446 00:18:09,909 --> 00:18:06,320 it'll be interesting to see you know 447 00:18:14,070 --> 00:18:11,590 by the end of the year first of all i 448 00:18:16,230 --> 00:18:14,080 think amazing things will will come out 449 00:18:18,230 --> 00:18:16,240 from this but just like 450 00:18:19,430 --> 00:18:18,240 within 20 years 451 00:18:20,870 --> 00:18:19,440 how 452 00:18:22,310 --> 00:18:20,880 you know 453 00:18:24,870 --> 00:18:22,320 our knowledge of the universe will 454 00:18:26,549 --> 00:18:24,880 change as it always does when 455 00:18:28,549 --> 00:18:26,559 you know we build ourselves a great tool 456 00:18:29,430 --> 00:18:28,559 like we just did so 457 00:18:30,310 --> 00:18:29,440 yep 458 00:18:34,870 --> 00:18:30,320 now 459 00:18:36,710 --> 00:18:34,880 called the star death photo 460 00:18:38,789 --> 00:18:36,720 um which is kind of wild because it 461 00:18:40,950 --> 00:18:38,799 looks you know kind of like a beautiful 462 00:18:42,230 --> 00:18:40,960 serene almost like 463 00:18:43,350 --> 00:18:42,240 you know it looks a little bit like an 464 00:18:44,870 --> 00:18:43,360 eye it looks a little bit like a 465 00:18:47,990 --> 00:18:44,880 firework right 466 00:18:50,390 --> 00:18:48,000 but um that orange foaminess you see is 467 00:18:53,270 --> 00:18:50,400 apparently due to the molecular hydrogen 468 00:18:55,990 --> 00:18:53,280 that's newly formed in the expansion of 469 00:18:57,750 --> 00:18:56,000 the process of this star while it's 470 00:19:00,230 --> 00:18:57,760 dying all right 471 00:19:02,390 --> 00:19:00,240 and the blue area is due to hot ionized 472 00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:02,400 gas that's heated up by the leftover hot 473 00:19:06,230 --> 00:19:05,120 core of this dying star 474 00:19:08,470 --> 00:19:06,240 so 475 00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:08,480 and those there's these little rays that 476 00:19:12,870 --> 00:19:10,720 you can see kind of like at around like 477 00:19:14,549 --> 00:19:12,880 nine o'clock or something like that that 478 00:19:17,190 --> 00:19:14,559 that those kind of like 479 00:19:19,190 --> 00:19:17,200 um horizontal almost lines that you see 480 00:19:21,909 --> 00:19:19,200 yeah like over in the left 481 00:19:24,549 --> 00:19:21,919 um at the left upper part of the photo 482 00:19:26,230 --> 00:19:24,559 now so those rays 483 00:19:28,630 --> 00:19:26,240 are um 484 00:19:30,630 --> 00:19:28,640 uh those are holes in the inner nebula 485 00:19:32,070 --> 00:19:30,640 that are allowing the central star's 486 00:19:35,510 --> 00:19:32,080 light to come through kind of like 487 00:19:36,470 --> 00:19:35,520 patchy clouds letting in rays of our sun 488 00:19:38,950 --> 00:19:36,480 um 489 00:19:41,590 --> 00:19:38,960 and so and then in that picture on the 490 00:19:43,669 --> 00:19:41,600 right which is the near infrared as 491 00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:43,679 opposed to the infrared view the one 492 00:19:48,870 --> 00:19:45,360 yeah i'm learning all about infrared 493 00:19:51,190 --> 00:19:48,880 there's mid infrared near infrared 494 00:19:53,110 --> 00:19:51,200 yeah like 495 00:19:55,430 --> 00:19:53,120 how many infrareds are there 496 00:19:56,710 --> 00:19:55,440 i know right and i mean again it gets 497 00:19:58,870 --> 00:19:56,720 back to what we're talking about at the 498 00:20:00,070 --> 00:19:58,880 top of the 499 00:20:02,149 --> 00:20:00,080 show which is 500 00:20:04,149 --> 00:20:02,159 you know it's it's this is a great field 501 00:20:05,350 --> 00:20:04,159 if you want to be a generalist or you 502 00:20:07,590 --> 00:20:05,360 know um 503 00:20:09,909 --> 00:20:07,600 or for me you know jack of all trades 504 00:20:12,470 --> 00:20:09,919 master of none right yeah because uh but 505 00:20:13,909 --> 00:20:12,480 um and i certainly feel like one when 506 00:20:15,350 --> 00:20:13,919 whenever i'm walking into a situation 507 00:20:17,270 --> 00:20:15,360 like this and prepping for a show like 508 00:20:19,669 --> 00:20:17,280 today and i'm like i realize how little 509 00:20:22,630 --> 00:20:19,679 i know about astronomy right i know 510 00:20:24,149 --> 00:20:22,640 they're less than you even 511 00:20:26,149 --> 00:20:24,159 but like on the right with this 512 00:20:27,990 --> 00:20:26,159 near-infrared they were able to say they 513 00:20:30,070 --> 00:20:28,000 were able to figure out if you zoom in 514 00:20:32,390 --> 00:20:30,080 there you can see that it's actually a 515 00:20:35,510 --> 00:20:32,400 binary star system so 516 00:20:37,350 --> 00:20:35,520 so on the left you know with infrared 517 00:20:38,710 --> 00:20:37,360 you know there's just a big a big haze 518 00:20:40,149 --> 00:20:38,720 in the middle and then with this near 519 00:20:41,750 --> 00:20:40,159 infrared in the right you can see that 520 00:20:43,990 --> 00:20:41,760 there are two dots in the middle so it's 521 00:20:46,310 --> 00:20:44,000 actually a binary star system and and 522 00:20:48,710 --> 00:20:46,320 that's what's what's uh kind of eating 523 00:20:51,590 --> 00:20:48,720 itself right there in this photo 524 00:20:52,950 --> 00:20:51,600 which is super super wild 525 00:20:54,870 --> 00:20:52,960 um 526 00:20:56,230 --> 00:20:54,880 now that 527 00:20:57,669 --> 00:20:56,240 go ahead 528 00:20:59,110 --> 00:20:57,679 well no i was just gonna say i don't 529 00:21:00,630 --> 00:20:59,120 want to feel like i'm rushing you i just 530 00:21:01,350 --> 00:21:00,640 want to make sure we get up to all of 531 00:21:05,110 --> 00:21:01,360 them 532 00:21:08,789 --> 00:21:07,190 no this is great this is great yeah i'm 533 00:21:10,310 --> 00:21:08,799 checking the time and i know that we've 534 00:21:12,789 --> 00:21:10,320 got some wonderful guests coming in here 535 00:21:15,669 --> 00:21:12,799 in about eight minutes or so now this 536 00:21:17,270 --> 00:21:15,679 this is what's called stefan's quintet 537 00:21:19,110 --> 00:21:17,280 this was rolled out by representatives 538 00:21:21,669 --> 00:21:19,120 from the european space agency in 539 00:21:23,990 --> 00:21:21,679 germany now this is a photo with five 540 00:21:27,110 --> 00:21:24,000 large galaxies in the foreground there's 541 00:21:29,830 --> 00:21:27,120 this one kind of classic looking galaxy 542 00:21:32,310 --> 00:21:29,840 on the left and then on the right that 543 00:21:35,510 --> 00:21:32,320 kind of kidney bean shape is actually 544 00:21:38,789 --> 00:21:35,520 four kind of like slightly overlapping 545 00:21:41,909 --> 00:21:38,799 um galaxies all jammed up on top of each 546 00:21:44,549 --> 00:21:41,919 other basically right um now in each 547 00:21:47,029 --> 00:21:44,559 galaxy a very conservative estimate 548 00:21:49,669 --> 00:21:47,039 would be that there are a few billion 549 00:21:52,070 --> 00:21:49,679 within a particular dwarf galaxies and 550 00:21:53,669 --> 00:21:52,080 perhaps 100 to 400 billion stars in a 551 00:21:55,750 --> 00:21:53,679 larger galaxy 552 00:21:59,110 --> 00:21:55,760 you know the mind really boggles at 553 00:22:01,350 --> 00:21:59,120 those kinds of numbers right so 554 00:22:02,870 --> 00:22:01,360 right so in this image 555 00:22:05,430 --> 00:22:02,880 so i hope that doesn't happen in the 556 00:22:07,510 --> 00:22:05,440 milky way that's all right so in this 557 00:22:09,190 --> 00:22:07,520 image it's not unlikely at all that 558 00:22:11,350 --> 00:22:09,200 there would be more than 559 00:22:13,029 --> 00:22:11,360 that there would be you know 560 00:22:15,270 --> 00:22:13,039 it's not unlikely that there are two or 561 00:22:17,669 --> 00:22:15,280 three trillion stars like within the 562 00:22:19,669 --> 00:22:17,679 field of view here 563 00:22:22,230 --> 00:22:19,679 almost all of which likely have planets 564 00:22:26,149 --> 00:22:22,240 around them all right we're not alone 565 00:22:31,909 --> 00:22:29,110 yeah the four on the right are about 300 566 00:22:34,950 --> 00:22:31,919 million light years from us 567 00:22:36,950 --> 00:22:34,960 300 million light years 568 00:22:39,350 --> 00:22:36,960 um so what we're looking at with them 569 00:22:42,149 --> 00:22:39,360 again is what was going on there 300 570 00:22:44,149 --> 00:22:42,159 million years ago now for reference 571 00:22:46,230 --> 00:22:44,159 alligators are some of the oldest larger 572 00:22:47,669 --> 00:22:46,240 animals that exist on our planet and the 573 00:22:51,430 --> 00:22:47,679 first alligator 574 00:22:53,750 --> 00:22:51,440 ancestors evolved some 245 million years 575 00:22:55,350 --> 00:22:53,760 ago so what we're seeing in this picture 576 00:22:58,549 --> 00:22:55,360 that was just taken 577 00:23:00,789 --> 00:22:58,559 um is you know what was happening 300 578 00:23:02,630 --> 00:23:00,799 million light years away from us 579 00:23:05,190 --> 00:23:02,640 from before the time that alligators 580 00:23:06,870 --> 00:23:05,200 existed so 581 00:23:09,430 --> 00:23:06,880 this could possibly look different by 582 00:23:10,630 --> 00:23:09,440 now right yeah for sure 583 00:23:12,549 --> 00:23:10,640 for sure 584 00:23:14,149 --> 00:23:12,559 right how do we know 585 00:23:16,710 --> 00:23:14,159 i mean they could be it could be are 586 00:23:18,390 --> 00:23:16,720 they even there anymore right well not 587 00:23:20,710 --> 00:23:18,400 only that but like the whole place could 588 00:23:23,190 --> 00:23:20,720 be like occup you know like even at this 589 00:23:25,190 --> 00:23:23,200 view you we don't know like how occupied 590 00:23:27,270 --> 00:23:25,200 that area could be right 591 00:23:29,350 --> 00:23:27,280 and like now you know it could 592 00:23:31,830 --> 00:23:29,360 it it could have 593 00:23:33,909 --> 00:23:31,840 whatever the population might be there 594 00:23:37,110 --> 00:23:33,919 of advanced civilizations just you know 595 00:23:38,950 --> 00:23:37,120 as as a mental exercise you know that 596 00:23:41,430 --> 00:23:38,960 those people could have like 597 00:23:43,750 --> 00:23:41,440 lived and died you know hundreds of 598 00:23:45,830 --> 00:23:43,760 times over you know what i mean like you 599 00:23:48,310 --> 00:23:45,840 know like just think of our civilization 600 00:23:51,510 --> 00:23:48,320 or what we think of as 601 00:23:52,950 --> 00:23:51,520 as the the relevant time period of of 602 00:23:54,710 --> 00:23:52,960 human progress 603 00:23:57,990 --> 00:23:54,720 and then and then 604 00:24:00,310 --> 00:23:58,000 jam you know divide that into 300 605 00:24:01,590 --> 00:24:00,320 million years it's it's crazy to look 606 00:24:02,870 --> 00:24:01,600 it's incredible 607 00:24:04,789 --> 00:24:02,880 think about those 608 00:24:06,070 --> 00:24:04,799 the that kind of time frame 609 00:24:12,710 --> 00:24:06,080 in 610 00:24:15,269 --> 00:24:12,720 um bill nelson said it best when he said 611 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:15,279 there are no words just 612 00:24:18,630 --> 00:24:16,410 wow 613 00:24:20,230 --> 00:24:18,640 [Laughter] 614 00:24:21,750 --> 00:24:20,240 absolutely 615 00:24:25,190 --> 00:24:21,760 he's got he's got away with those no 616 00:24:29,269 --> 00:24:27,669 this is it seems like the the favorite 617 00:24:31,350 --> 00:24:29,279 amongst people are paying attention to 618 00:24:34,630 --> 00:24:31,360 this and looking at this stuff 619 00:24:37,750 --> 00:24:34,640 and you know you can see why it's 620 00:24:39,669 --> 00:24:37,760 very beautiful and 621 00:24:40,470 --> 00:24:39,679 there's so many different things to look 622 00:24:42,549 --> 00:24:40,480 at 623 00:24:44,390 --> 00:24:42,559 um and this is uh 624 00:24:46,070 --> 00:24:44,400 the birth of a star 625 00:24:48,789 --> 00:24:46,080 right that's right well it's actually 626 00:24:50,149 --> 00:24:48,799 the karina nebula and so that whole kind 627 00:24:52,630 --> 00:24:50,159 of haze 628 00:24:54,310 --> 00:24:52,640 yeah no but yeah no it's true um and 629 00:24:56,950 --> 00:24:54,320 they called it star birth but it's queen 630 00:24:59,669 --> 00:24:56,960 and nebula so you actually see many 631 00:25:02,630 --> 00:24:59,679 hundreds of star like probably 632 00:25:03,430 --> 00:25:02,640 you know many many stars forming in that 633 00:25:06,630 --> 00:25:03,440 kind of 634 00:25:07,669 --> 00:25:06,640 thirds of the picture not just one 635 00:25:09,669 --> 00:25:07,679 incredible 636 00:25:12,830 --> 00:25:09,679 which is astonishing right and this is 637 00:25:15,430 --> 00:25:12,840 actually 7 600 light years away but it's 638 00:25:17,590 --> 00:25:15,440 still with oh that's it our own galaxy 639 00:25:21,590 --> 00:25:17,600 yeah it's still within our own milky way 640 00:25:24,950 --> 00:25:23,029 it's less impressive now that you know 641 00:25:26,710 --> 00:25:24,960 that yeah it's like oh it's practically 642 00:25:28,789 --> 00:25:26,720 our neighbor 643 00:25:31,510 --> 00:25:28,799 but it's crazy to think that even within 644 00:25:35,909 --> 00:25:31,520 our own galaxy like stars would be you 645 00:25:38,549 --> 00:25:35,919 know created now or 7 600 years ago when 646 00:25:41,510 --> 00:25:38,559 basically which is what this photo is 647 00:25:46,149 --> 00:25:41,520 kind of referencing right at least yeah 648 00:25:49,350 --> 00:25:48,230 like a wave like the ocean 649 00:25:51,990 --> 00:25:49,360 right 650 00:25:53,430 --> 00:25:52,000 it's it's uh but it's pretty beautiful i 651 00:25:55,110 --> 00:25:53,440 i mean

00:28:45,909 --> 00:28:43,600 the fact that there was going to be like 730 00:28:48,149 --> 00:28:45,919 about a 15 second lag time or something 731 00:28:51,750 --> 00:28:48,159 like that could you imagine if that was 732 00:28:54,149 --> 00:28:51,760 uh you know that was the time they were 733 00:28:56,310 --> 00:28:54,159 going to disclose that there's other 734 00:28:57,510 --> 00:28:56,320 life in the universe and and that's how 735 00:28:59,510 --> 00:28:57,520 it went 736 00:29:01,750 --> 00:28:59,520 it's it's a nightmare 737 00:29:03,990 --> 00:29:01,760 it's also funny because like

knowledge let's say um on 911 00:36:19,430 --> 00:36:15,680 classified programs past legal illegal 912 00:36:21,349 --> 00:36:19,440 programs to come forward um to aoi msg 913 00:36:25,270 -->

that information to go to 917 00:36:35,750 --> 00:36:33,680 um 918 00:36:37,910 --> 00:36:35,760 let's say 919 00:36:39,270 --> 00:36:37,920 politicians on key committees or in key 920 00:36:41,270 --> 00:36:39,280 positions 921 00:36:42,150 --> 00:36:41,280 such as gang of eight for instance 922 00:36:44,069 --> 00:36:42,160 um 923 00:36:46,230 --> 00:36:44,079 and that's gonna be really exciting the 924 00:36:49,270 --> 00:36:46,240 only question i have is terms of 925 00:36:50,550 --> 00:36:49,280 how is that information going to become 926 00:36:51,670 --> 00:36:50,560 public 927 00:36:53,510 --> 00:36:51,680 um 928 00:36:55,030 --> 00:36:53,520 that's the one thing and from my 929 00:36:57,349 --> 00:36:55,040 understanding 930 00:36:59,990 --> 00:36:57,359 um yes you may be able to 931 00:37:02,630 --> 00:37:00,000 provide protections 932 00:37:05,109 --> 00:37:02,640 so you don't get in jail on stuff but i 933 00:37:06,550 --> 00:37:05,119 think some people may still be a little 934 00:37:09,030 --> 00:37:06,560 bit nervous about losing some of their 935 00:37:10,470 --> 00:37:09,040 clearances if especially 936 00:37:12,390 --> 00:37:10,480 they can do it via the classified 937 00:37:13,670 --> 00:37:12,400 channel secure channels fine but if 938 00:37:14,710 --> 00:37:13,680 you're going to speak up in a public 939 00:37:16,870 --> 00:37:14,720 hearing 940 00:37:18,230 --> 00:37:16,880 there may be that fear 941 00:37:19,990 --> 00:37:18,240 however 942 00:37:23,430 --> 00:37:20,000 i expect 943 00:37:25,109 --> 00:37:23,440 people who retired from such programs 944 00:37:27,270 --> 00:37:25,119 may be more willing to do so because 945 00:37:28,870 --> 00:37:27,280 look okay 946 00:37:30,790 --> 00:37:28,880 you know you're retired who cares if you 947 00:37:33,430 --> 00:37:30,800 lose your clearance you know you you've 948 00:37:35,190 --> 00:37:33,440 done a great public service katie you 949 00:37:37,430 --> 00:37:35,200 may have different thoughts on that um 950 00:37:39,430 --> 00:37:37,440 yeah unfortunately there's a lot of 951 00:37:40,790 --> 00:37:39,440 money behind keeping that even after 952 00:37:43,030 --> 00:37:40,800 you've retired 953 00:37:44,230 --> 00:37:43,040 in the private sector 954 00:37:45,510 --> 00:37:44,240 i have a 955 00:37:48,710 --> 00:37:45,520 colleague who 956 00:37:50,310 --> 00:37:48,720 i got a six-figure bump for keeping a 957 00:37:52,550 --> 00:37:50,320 certain level clearance while in the 958 00:37:53,510 --> 00:37:52,560 while in the private sector so 959 00:37:54,630 --> 00:37:53,520 um 960 00:37:55,910 --> 00:37:54,640 there's a really big financial 961 00:37:57,670 --> 00:37:55,920 disincentive 962 00:37:59,430 --> 00:37:57,680 you know not to so let's hope that we 963 00:38:02,630 --> 00:37:59,440 have some patriots who are 964 00:38:04,310 --> 00:38:02,640 willing to kind of put that aside um it 965 00:38:05,589 --> 00:38:04,320 also depends on if they're still if 966 00:38:08,470 --> 00:38:05,599 they're retired from the government or 967 00:38:10,550 --> 00:38:08,480 if they're retired from work period 968 00:38:12,390 --> 00:38:10,560 so fingers crossed there 969 00:38:14,390 --> 00:38:12,400 very interesting 970 00:38:15,349 --> 00:38:14,400 jay do you have any uh thoughts or 971 00:38:17,349 --> 00:38:15,359 questions 972 00:38:18,470 --> 00:38:17,359 oh yeah i was just going to ask if if 973 00:38:21,349 --> 00:38:18,480 there was 974 00:38:23,829 --> 00:38:21,359 chris did a great job of of kind of um 975 00:38:25,670 --> 00:38:23,839 laying out some of the the structure of 976 00:38:28,630 --> 00:38:25,680 what we can anticipate as far as the 977 00:38:31,430 --> 00:38:28,640 timeline from here towards like november 978 00:38:33,349 --> 00:38:31,440 and december and further on from there 979 00:38:35,109 --> 00:38:33,359 um katie would you like to 980 00:38:37,910 --> 00:38:35,119 kind of color in the lines further in 981 00:38:40,150 --> 00:38:37,920 terms of what um we and the audience can 982 00:38:43,910 --> 00:38:40,160 expect with regards to 983 00:38:46,390 --> 00:38:43,920 to the the the defense uh bill and 984 00:38:49,510 --> 00:38:46,400 appropriations and uh specifically this 985 00:38:51,030 --> 00:38:49,520 amendment how long you got that jay i 986 00:38:54,870 --> 00:38:51,040 mean do you want to hear how things 987 00:38:57,109 --> 00:38:54,880 should go yeah or how things do go 988 00:38:58,829 --> 00:38:57,119 and when i just play this game game 989 00:39:01,589 --> 00:38:58,839 every single 990 00:39:03,349 --> 00:39:01,599 option you will be here for a long time 991 00:39:05,109 --> 00:39:03,359 uh yeah so 992 00:39:06,710 --> 00:39:05,119 it's a complicated process and it's 993 00:39:08,790 --> 00:39:06,720 important to understand 994 00:39:10,150 --> 00:39:08,800 at you know in broad strokes how this 995 00:39:11,750 --> 00:39:10,160 works because 996 00:39:14,470 --> 00:39:11,760 there are going to be key times where 997 00:39:16,150 --> 00:39:14,480 you're called to do more advocacy and 998 00:39:17,990 --> 00:39:16,160 it's not that we're 999 00:39:20,390 --> 00:39:18,000 redundant and asking for the same things 1000 00:39:22,550 --> 00:39:20,400 over and over again there really are new 1001 00:39:25,270 --> 00:39:22,560 movement points as chris mentioned this 1002 00:39:26,790 --> 00:39:25,280 is just the house version of the ndaa so 1003 00:39:28,630 --> 00:39:26,800 the senate will pass their version and 1004 00:39:31,510 --> 00:39:28,640 then they conference the two and then 1005 00:39:34,310 --> 00:39:31,520 that goes to the president's desk 1006 00:39:37,750 --> 00:39:34,320 what i do see a lot is confusion between 1007 00:39:39,670 --> 00:39:37,760 author authorizations and appropriations 1008 00:39:41,510 --> 00:39:39,680 um and essentially you can think of 1009 00:39:43,990 --> 00:39:41,520 authorizations as permission to spend 1010 00:39:46,390 --> 00:39:44,000 money appropriations as actually giving 1011 00:39:48,550 --> 00:39:46,400 the money right so an authorizations 1012 00:39:51,430 --> 00:39:48,560 bill which is the ndaa 1013 00:39:53,670 --> 00:39:51,440 um we'll establish new offices we'll set 1014 00:39:55,270 --> 00:39:53,680 new rules we'll 1015 00:39:57,190 --> 00:39:55,280 kind of set the parameters of what they 1016 00:39:58,790 --> 00:39:57,200 want to spend money on 1017 00:40:00,950 --> 00:39:58,800 but none of that matters if there's no 1018 00:40:02,470 --> 00:40:00,960 teeth behind it in appropriations bills 1019 00:40:05,430 --> 00:40:02,480 so 1020 00:40:06,630 --> 00:40:05,440 what's really interesting this year 1021 00:40:08,710 --> 00:40:06,640 is 1022 00:40:10,870 --> 00:40:08,720 it follows logically that you would want 1023 00:40:13,109 --> 00:40:10,880 authorizations to proceed appropriations 1024 00:40:15,190 --> 00:40:13,119 right because what if you say you want a 1025 00:40:17,270 --> 00:40:15,200 new uap office well you better want some 1026 00:40:19,829 --> 00:40:17,280 money so you can hire staff to run it 1027 00:40:21,349 --> 00:40:19,839 right um right now we're in this weird 1028 00:40:22,870 --> 00:40:21,359 position where the house has already 1029 00:40:26,069 --> 00:40:22,880 passed their appropriations bill for 1030 00:40:29,190 --> 00:40:26,079 defense um even though we haven't passed 1031 00:40:31,109 --> 00:40:29,200 the ndaa yet um or it looks like maybe 1032 00:40:32,710 --> 00:40:31,119 we have passed it i don't know if it was 1033 00:40:34,230 --> 00:40:32,720 just certain 1034 00:40:36,870 --> 00:40:34,240 amendments that were voted on chris if 1035 00:40:39,270 --> 00:40:36,880 it was the whole the whole thing um 1036 00:40:42,150 --> 00:40:39,280 but they're kind of doing the processes 1037 00:40:44,069 --> 00:40:42,160 simultaneously so all that to say 1038 00:40:44,950 --> 00:40:44,079 we're going to have a long process ahead 1039 00:40:47,109 --> 00:40:44,960 of us 1040 00:40:48,790 --> 00:40:47,119 and getting the ndaa final version 1041 00:40:51,270 --> 00:40:48,800 passed but we also want to keep an eye 1042 00:40:53,430 --> 00:40:51,280 on the money as well um because that 1043 00:40:55,670 --> 00:40:53,440 probably won't have a huge impact on 1044 00:41:00,150 --> 00:40:55,680 this i suspect but it might have a big 1045 00:41:02,870 --> 00:41:00,950 you know 1046 00:41:04,790 --> 00:41:02,880 robert covert in the chatter brings up a 1047 00:41:06,470 --> 00:41:04,800 good point i don't see how we can expect 1048 00:41:11,589 --> 00:41:06,480 these people to give up their clearances 1049 00:41:15,190 --> 00:41:13,190 and that's pretty 1050 00:41:17,990 --> 00:41:15,200 that's pretty spot on but i guess i 1051 00:41:20,630 --> 00:41:18,000 would go back to you know the 1052 00:41:21,910 --> 00:41:20,640 idea that you brought up is maybe 1053 00:41:23,349 --> 00:41:21,920 they're retired 1054 00:41:24,550 --> 00:41:23,359 you know something like that maybe they 1055 00:41:26,470 --> 00:41:24,560 don't need it 1056 00:41:30,309 --> 00:41:26,480 maybe they're just a good freaking 1057 00:41:36,069 --> 00:41:33,430 or maybe they have like 1058 00:41:38,069 --> 00:41:36,079 40 lucrative patents under the name like 1059 00:41:40,069 --> 00:41:38,079 carrying in like they could just do 1060 00:41:42,550 --> 00:41:40,079 whatever regardless right i'm kind of 1061 00:41:44,150 --> 00:41:42,560 already millionaire but 1062 00:41:45,829 --> 00:41:44,160 well it's important to remember when 1063 00:41:47,190 --> 00:41:45,839 we're talking about losing clearances 1064 00:41:48,550 --> 00:41:47,200 that you can lose your clearance for 1065 00:41:51,109 --> 00:41:48,560 things that are legal 1066 00:41:52,950 --> 00:41:51,119 um so for example 1067 00:41:54,870 --> 00:41:52,960 if you fi if 1068 00:41:56,309 --> 00:41:54,880 well sure but even if you've like filed 1069 00:41:58,390 --> 00:41:56,319 bankruptcy there's something illegal 1070 00:42:00,550 --> 00:41:58,400 about that um a lot of times you will be 1071 00:42:01,910 --> 00:42:00,560 able to get a clearance um right because 1072 00:42:03,589 --> 00:42:01,920 you could be turned right the whole 1073 00:42:05,990 --> 00:42:03,599 thing about that is if you have a 1074 00:42:07,270 --> 00:42:06,000 weakness that could be used to you know 1075 00:42:09,510 --> 00:42:07,280 turn against 1076 00:42:12,309 --> 00:42:09,520 you know the us or whatever so 1077 00:42:14,150 --> 00:42:12,319 you know a china spy could be like hey 1078 00:42:16,390 --> 00:42:14,160 you're freaking broke man and i know it 1079 00:42:18,490 --> 00:42:16,400 i'll give you 20 million dollars to just 1080 00:42:20,470 --> 00:42:18,500 tell me what's in that box over there 1081 00:42:22,790 --> 00:42:20,480 [Laughter] 1082 00:42:24,630 --> 00:42:22,800 okay fine yeah they get so they can't do 1083 00:42:26,309 --> 00:42:24,640 stuff like that right 1084 00:42:27,910 --> 00:42:26,319 yeah 1085 00:42:33,270 --> 00:42:27,920 are they i'm really good at doing 1086 00:42:39,190 --> 00:42:36,069 um now uh chris you 1087 00:42:41,589 --> 00:42:39,200 wrote um a a piece recently 1088 00:42:43,990 --> 00:42:41,599 um this month for the library liberation 1089 00:42:46,069 --> 00:42:44,000 times which by the way uh it's your one 1090 00:42:47,109 --> 00:42:46,079 year anniversary of the liberation times 1091 00:42:48,470 --> 00:42:47,119 this month 1092 00:42:52,870 --> 00:42:48,480 uh 1093 00:42:54,309 --> 00:42:52,880 called it had the tantalizing title 1094 00:42:56,870 --> 00:42:54,319 you're always good with your tantalizing 1095 00:42:59,589 --> 00:42:56,880 headlines pandora's box is about to be 1096 00:43:02,309 --> 00:42:59,599 opened as congress searches for ufo 1097 00:43:04,150 --> 00:43:02,319 answers love that love that love that 1098 00:43:07,109 --> 00:43:04,160 and in that you said in recent years 1099 00:43:09,270 --> 00:43:07,119 previous versions of both acts um 1100 00:43:11,030 --> 00:43:09,280 the national defense authorization act 1101 00:43:15,750 --> 00:43:11,040 which we were just talking about and the 1102 00:43:18,470 --> 00:43:15,760 intelligence authorization act the iaa 1103 00:43:20,390 --> 00:43:18,480 for 2023. you said in recent years 1104 00:43:22,710 --> 00:43:20,400 previous versions of both acts played 1105 00:43:27,190 --> 00:43:22,720 significant roles as congress commenced 1106 00:43:29,910 --> 00:43:27,200 its uap investigation iaa 2021 1107 00:43:33,270 --> 00:43:29,920 established the navy's uap task force 1108 00:43:36,550 --> 00:43:33,280 and ndaa 2022 established the current 1109 00:43:38,790 --> 00:43:36,560 uap office for the moment named aimsoc 1110 00:43:42,630 --> 00:43:38,800 which is a terrible name 1111 00:43:45,990 --> 00:43:42,640 however you said its acts of 2023 may 1112 00:43:48,790 --> 00:43:46,000 may be remembered by history as truly 1113 00:43:49,910 --> 00:43:48,800 pivotal uh can you tell us why 1114 00:43:52,390 --> 00:43:49,920 um 1115 00:43:56,069 --> 00:43:52,400 yes yes and i think it has a large part 1116 00:43:58,630 --> 00:43:56,079 to do with the immunity language um 1117 00:44:01,589 --> 00:43:58,640 which has now been confirmed um 1118 00:44:03,670 --> 00:44:01,599 and i think you know my sources are very 1119 00:44:05,990 --> 00:44:03,680 very bullish in terms of 1120 00:44:06,829 --> 00:44:06,000 how this may now pull out and play out 1121 00:44:08,630 --> 00:44:06,839 sorry 1122 00:44:12,309 --> 00:44:08,640 um and 1123 00:44:13,349 --> 00:44:12,319 i think there is now a real will 1124 00:44:15,190 --> 00:44:13,359 in 1125 00:44:17,670 --> 00:44:15,200 um congress 1126 00:44:20,470 --> 00:44:17,680 to find the origin of these craft 1127 00:44:24,230 --> 00:44:20,480 because they keep on getting reports of 1128 00:44:26,150 --> 00:44:24,240 you know uaps you see the videos 1129 00:44:27,670 --> 00:44:26,160 here from the witnesses and all this 1130 00:44:30,630 --> 00:44:27,680 stuff they're giving these big briefings 1131 00:44:32,630 --> 00:44:30,640 and stuff but anyhow they're not given 1132 00:44:34,829 --> 00:44:32,640 any information as to who the actors are 1133 00:44:37,670 --> 00:44:34,839 behind the 1134 00:44:43,990 --> 00:44:37,680 wheels a complaint yeah 1135 00:44:46,550 --> 00:44:44,000 absolutely and i think um ousd in s has 1136 00:44:49,030 --> 00:44:46,560 has historically not been very upfront 1137 00:44:52,950 --> 00:44:49,040 with playing bornish issue hence why the 1138 00:44:55,670 --> 00:44:52,960 zondo left that office um and it's been 1139 00:44:58,550 --> 00:44:55,680 in control of amesog um you know until 1140 00:45:01,670 --> 00:44:58,560 recently gary reed who was not proponing 1141 00:45:03,430 --> 00:45:01,680 for uap was kind of like heading 1142 00:45:05,990 --> 00:45:03,440 song as well which is unbelievable when 1143 00:45:08,309 --> 00:45:06,000 you think about it so yeah i think yeah 1144 00:45:10,710 --> 00:45:08,319 so i i think i think kind of like um in 1145 00:45:12,470 --> 00:45:10,720 simplistic terms um congrats is just 1146 00:45:14,390 --> 00:45:12,480 kind of like screw this 1147 00:45:17,270 --> 00:45:14,400 there are legal programs they know a lot 1148 00:45:18,390 --> 00:45:17,280 more let's go jump straight to that i 1149 00:45:20,390 --> 00:45:18,400 mean you're saying you don't need to be 1150 00:45:22,309 --> 00:45:20,400 origin or anything like that so if 1151 00:45:23,750 --> 00:45:22,319 there's crash retrievals and stuff like 1152 00:45:25,589 --> 00:45:23,760 that and we've got these crafts and 1153 00:45:27,670 --> 00:45:25,599 legal programs let's just jump straight 1154 00:45:30,870 --> 00:45:27,680 to that because 1155 00:45:33,109 --> 00:45:30,880 the united states is not stupid um 1156 00:45:35,109 --> 00:45:33,119 i mean obviously people got lots and 1157 00:45:36,630 --> 00:45:35,119 lots of opinions on the government but 1158 00:45:39,910 --> 00:45:36,640 they're not stupid i mean this stuff's 1159 00:45:41,829 --> 00:45:39,920 been going on for 70 years now um i mean 1160 00:45:43,430 --> 00:45:41,839 stuff you've uncovered sean i mean that 1161 00:45:47,030 --> 00:45:43,440 tells you something else has been going 1162 00:45:49,190 --> 00:45:47,040 on behind the scenes um you ain't etf um 1163 00:45:51,510 --> 00:45:49,200 you know aid pain sog they've always 1164 00:45:53,030 --> 00:45:51,520 kind of like been outside that circle 1165 00:45:54,630 --> 00:45:53,040 you know they've never got into the 1166 00:45:57,829 --> 00:45:54,640 inner circle 1167 00:45:59,589 --> 00:45:57,839 or legal programs so i think that 1168 00:46:01,750 --> 00:45:59,599 congress is just kind of like okay are 1169 00:46:03,270 --> 00:46:01,760 you sdis you're not playing ball you're 1170 00:46:05,829 --> 00:46:03,280 not really helping us here we're not 1171 00:46:08,309 --> 00:46:05,839 making any ground so we're just going to 1172 00:46:11,910 --> 00:46:08,319 jump straight to these legal programs 1173 00:46:14,309 --> 00:46:11,920 and get the answers straight away um and 1174 00:46:15,910 --> 00:46:14,319 yeah i i think it will uh it will be a 1175 00:46:18,230 --> 00:46:15,920 huge story it could be like a cosmic 1176 00:46:19,910 --> 00:46:18,240 kind of like watergate um if it is 1177 00:46:22,950 --> 00:46:19,920 proven true that there are these legal 1178 00:46:24,390 --> 00:46:22,960 programs which i'm pretty sure of um so 1179 00:46:26,150 --> 00:46:24,400 i think that 1180 00:46:29,109 --> 00:46:26,160 you know um 1181 00:46:31,190 --> 00:46:29,119 the authorization acts um of 2023 will 1182 00:46:33,109 --> 00:46:31,200 play a large part in getting us to that 1183 00:46:34,710 --> 00:46:33,119 place um 1184 00:46:36,790 --> 00:46:34,720 so i think this is gonna be like it's 1185 00:46:38,790 --> 00:46:36,800 gonna be really really big um because 1186 00:46:42,550 --> 00:46:38,800 we're not gonna be relying on 1187 00:46:44,390 --> 00:46:42,560 staff within ousd on ins anymore um 1188 00:46:45,829 --> 00:46:44,400 people we know haven't played ball so i 1189 00:46:48,230 --> 00:46:45,839 think congress is now taking matters 1190 00:46:49,910 --> 00:46:48,240 into its own hands and they want to talk 1191 00:46:50,870 --> 00:46:49,920 to these um 1192 00:46:52,230 --> 00:46:50,880 people who are going to provide 1193 00:46:54,710 --> 00:46:52,240 testimony at least 1194 00:46:57,270 --> 00:46:54,720 perhaps to them in private 1195 00:46:58,550 --> 00:46:57,280 and get that information made public 1196 00:47:04,309 --> 00:46:58,560 somehow 1197 00:47:05,990 --> 00:47:04,319 do you think that these programs are 1198 00:47:07,750 --> 00:47:06,000 um 1199 00:47:10,710 --> 00:47:07,760 are you saying these programs are most 1200 00:47:14,069 --> 00:47:10,720 likely illegal government programs 1201 00:47:15,829 --> 00:47:14,079 or private contractor programs or both 1202 00:47:18,390 --> 00:47:15,839 could be both but the fact is that if 1203 00:47:20,790 --> 00:47:18,400 there's no government oversight um from 1204 00:47:23,349 --> 00:47:20,800 congressional committees 1205 00:47:25,829 --> 00:47:23,359 i doubt they're legal 1206 00:47:27,510 --> 00:47:25,839 in terms of having that transparency 1207 00:47:28,549 --> 00:47:27,520 component about them 1208 00:47:30,069 --> 00:47:28,559 especially 1209 00:47:31,430 --> 00:47:30,079 if you've got kind of breakthrough 1210 00:47:34,309 --> 00:47:31,440 technologies and stuff that could 1211 00:47:35,990 --> 00:47:34,319 perhaps provide um the keys to solving 1212 00:47:37,510 --> 00:47:36,000 climate change and key issues and stuff 1213 00:47:38,950 --> 00:47:37,520 like that i think that's sort of the 1214 00:47:40,630 --> 00:47:38,960 public address and interest to the 1215 00:47:41,829 --> 00:47:40,640 united states government 1216 00:47:44,150 --> 00:47:41,839 and if they're not getting information 1217 00:47:45,990 --> 00:47:44,160 they don't have any oversight of that 1218 00:47:48,630 --> 00:47:46,000 then that's a really really big problem 1219 00:47:51,750 --> 00:47:48,640 if they're operating in secret without 1220 00:47:54,230 --> 00:47:51,760 any knowledge of um portfolio holders in 1221 00:47:55,750 --> 00:47:54,240 government and that that is really big 1222 00:47:56,549 --> 00:47:55,760 especially if the president 1223 00:48:01,190 --> 00:47:56,559 um 1224 00:48:04,630 --> 00:48:02,870 which yeah we've we've heard a lot of 1225 00:48:06,630 --> 00:48:04,640 different things on that what presidents 1226 00:48:08,390 --> 00:48:06,640 are briefed or which aren't or whatever 1227 00:48:11,430 --> 00:48:08,400 truth is i don't i don't know that we 1228 00:48:13,349 --> 00:48:11,440 really know um but 1229 00:48:15,349 --> 00:48:13,359 you know what you have i always just go 1230 00:48:17,109 --> 00:48:15,359 back to the start when eric davis was 1231 00:48:20,950 --> 00:48:17,119 quoted as saying off-world freaking 1232 00:48:22,870 --> 00:48:20,960 vehicles you know 1233 00:48:23,829 --> 00:48:22,880 chris mellon backs it up 1234 00:48:26,069 --> 00:48:23,839 you know 1235 00:48:28,230 --> 00:48:26,079 lou says the guy couldn't tell a lie 1236 00:48:29,670 --> 00:48:28,240 everybody backs this guy up 1237 00:48:32,710 --> 00:48:29,680 so like 1238 00:48:35,030 --> 00:48:32,720 that has to be enough and could be what 1239 00:48:38,230 --> 00:48:35,040 is propelling a lot of this action but 1240 00:48:41,030 --> 00:48:38,240 that has to be enough to point someone 1241 00:48:42,309 --> 00:48:41,040 uh to action you know in in the right 1242 00:48:44,470 --> 00:48:42,319 place 1243 00:48:46,549 --> 00:48:44,480 and enough to get language like this 1244 00:48:48,870 --> 00:48:46,559 passed and enough to get hearings done 1245 00:48:50,790 --> 00:48:48,880 and all that because i mean you're right 1246 00:48:53,270 --> 00:48:50,800 skip all the nonsense go right to the 1247 00:48:55,589 --> 00:48:53,280 vehicles right like 1248 00:48:57,750 --> 00:48:55,599 show us the stuff man 1249 00:49:00,470 --> 00:48:57,760 like if you bring one of those out it's 1250 00:49:03,030 --> 00:49:00,480 over you know 1251 00:49:04,390 --> 00:49:03,040 well and sean 1252 00:49:05,750 --> 00:49:04,400 you just triggered something in me i 1253 00:49:06,790 --> 00:49:05,760 think it's also important that we 1254 00:49:09,190 --> 00:49:06,800 remember 1255 00:49:11,589 --> 00:49:09,200 there's a high likelihood that some 1256 00:49:14,069 --> 00:49:11,599 friendly faces are guiding this like the 1257 00:49:16,069 --> 00:49:14,079 this legislation they get emails and 1258 00:49:18,230 --> 00:49:16,079 have meetings and i'm one of the people 1259 00:49:20,790 --> 00:49:18,240 that used to do the emails you know and 1260 00:49:22,309 --> 00:49:20,800 try to guide things so i know people who 1261 00:49:24,950 --> 00:49:22,319 are much more intelligent about these 1262 00:49:27,910 --> 00:49:24,960 things than i am are absolutely in 1263 00:49:30,630 --> 00:49:27,920 contact and i find it interesting that 1264 00:49:32,710 --> 00:49:30,640 someone i i do not believe that rep 1265 00:49:34,710 --> 00:49:32,720 gallagher found out about the wilson 1266 00:49:38,950 --> 00:49:34,720 davis memo on his own 1267 00:49:40,710 --> 00:49:38,960 and i find it very very interesting that 1268 00:49:42,950 --> 00:49:40,720 we have these kind of parallel 1269 00:49:44,309 --> 00:49:42,960 situations happening where the wilson 1270 00:49:46,950 --> 00:49:44,319 davis memo was entered into the 1271 00:49:49,030 --> 00:49:46,960 congressional record a month ago 1272 00:49:51,430 --> 00:49:49,040 right and all of a sudden we have this 1273 00:49:53,750 --> 00:49:51,440 immunity language i think that we have 1274 00:49:55,990 --> 00:49:53,760 to look at this step back for a second 1275 00:49:58,230 --> 00:49:56,000 of what's going on behind the scenes 1276 00:49:59,829 --> 00:49:58,240 because there might be some connections 1277 00:50:02,150 --> 00:49:59,839 well it depends who you ask because some 1278 00:50:04,069 --> 00:50:02,160 people would say that ufo twitter's 1279 00:50:07,430 --> 00:50:04,079 you know bizarre theories are driving 1280 00:50:11,270 --> 00:50:08,870 i wish no 1281 00:50:12,950 --> 00:50:11,280 actually no i don't wish 1282 00:50:14,549 --> 00:50:12,960 is just watching twitter he's like oh 1283 00:50:17,750 --> 00:50:14,559 man we got to get immunity going that 1284 00:50:19,589 --> 00:50:17,760 sean guys said there's probably programs 1285 00:50:20,309 --> 00:50:19,599 they're totally going up yeah 1286 00:50:26,630 --> 00:50:20,319 no 1287 00:50:27,670 --> 00:50:26,640 i was just thinking earlier today like 1288 00:50:29,589 --> 00:50:27,680 uh 1289 00:50:31,589 --> 00:50:29,599 they obviously have some idea of who 1290 00:50:33,349 --> 00:50:31,599 would be willing to come forward and 1291 00:50:35,349 --> 00:50:33,359 talk you know before they go ahead and 1292 00:50:37,109 --> 00:50:35,359 do all this work of making this language 1293 00:50:39,109 --> 00:50:37,119 because you know that's not an easy 1294 00:50:41,750 --> 00:50:39,119 thing to do like uh 1295 00:50:43,349 --> 00:50:41,760 absolutely it's uh bureaucracy is 1296 00:50:44,309 --> 00:50:43,359 difficult 1297 00:50:45,030 --> 00:50:44,319 yeah 1298 00:50:48,549 --> 00:50:45,040 and 1299 00:50:50,790 --> 00:50:48,559 chris made 1300 00:50:52,950 --> 00:50:50,800 in his recent article chris you 1301 00:50:54,549 --> 00:50:52,960 you pointed out the trans-medium 1302 00:50:56,230 --> 00:50:54,559 language that's that's been kind of 1303 00:50:58,069 --> 00:50:56,240 floating around and making it into 1304 00:50:59,750 --> 00:50:58,079 things and that that yeah certainly 1305 00:51:01,430 --> 00:50:59,760 doesn't seem like it's it's because 1306 00:51:03,910 --> 00:51:01,440 people are reading ufo twitter and know 1307 00:51:06,230 --> 00:51:03,920 about like say leaked phone calls from 1308 00:51:08,470 --> 00:51:06,240 kit green or whatever it's probably it's 1309 00:51:09,670 --> 00:51:08,480 probably from somewhere else um do you 1310 00:51:11,990 --> 00:51:09,680 have anything that you'd like to say 1311 00:51:13,589 --> 00:51:12,000 about that kind of trans medium language 1312 00:51:15,109 --> 00:51:13,599 uh yes 1313 00:51:19,030 --> 00:51:15,119 i mean if you look at the definition of 1314 00:51:20,630 --> 00:51:19,040 like um uap within the ndaa 2022s it 1315 00:51:24,150 --> 00:51:20,640 does kind of clearly state that it is 1316 00:51:26,950 --> 00:51:24,160 trans medium however changing it to 1317 00:51:29,190 --> 00:51:26,960 explicitly reference trans medium is a 1318 00:51:32,870 --> 00:51:29,200 step forward in terms of kind of like 1319 00:51:34,950 --> 00:51:32,880 public awareness education of what 1320 00:51:36,309 --> 00:51:34,960 what we're dealing with and also i think 1321 00:51:38,549 --> 00:51:36,319 just kind of like helping people come 1322 00:51:39,750 --> 00:51:38,559 forward as well like you know say that 1323 00:51:41,670 --> 00:51:39,760 um 1324 00:51:44,150 --> 00:51:41,680 you can see something going to the ocean 1325 00:51:45,990 --> 00:51:44,160 oh that's not um a uap because it's not 1326 00:51:48,549 --> 00:51:46,000 aerial oh no but we're dealing with 1327 00:51:50,710 --> 00:51:48,559 trans medium now so oh perhaps it is 1328 00:51:51,750 --> 00:51:50,720 perhaps i should report that as a kind 1329 00:51:54,549 --> 00:51:51,760 of like 1330 00:51:56,150 --> 00:51:54,559 transgender cool um so stuff like that i 1331 00:51:57,990 --> 00:51:56,160 think just like makes a difference 1332 00:51:59,910 --> 00:51:58,000 although kind of like it's a 1333 00:52:01,670 --> 00:51:59,920 technicality in terms of what's 1334 00:52:04,390 --> 00:52:01,680 implicitly mentioned as a definition 1335 00:52:06,069 --> 00:52:04,400 within nda 2022 i think it really really 1336 00:52:09,829 --> 00:52:06,079 helps move the ball forwards as well to 1337 00:52:10,950 --> 00:52:09,839 get it clear what a uap actually is um 1338 00:52:12,710 --> 00:52:10,960 so i think 1339 00:52:14,790 --> 00:52:12,720 trans media phenomena would be my 1340 00:52:17,190 --> 00:52:14,800 favorite but i don't know we'll see what 1341 00:52:19,030 --> 00:52:17,200 language um they come up with at the 1342 00:52:20,230 --> 00:52:19,040 moment they've got kind of like language 1343 00:52:20,870 --> 00:52:20,240 which i think 1344 00:52:25,270 --> 00:52:20,880 in 1345 00:52:26,950 --> 00:52:25,280 like that so aerospace 1346 00:52:29,030 --> 00:52:26,960 and space 1347 00:52:30,390 --> 00:52:29,040 and that that language really 1348 00:52:33,670 --> 00:52:30,400 um 1349 00:52:35,190 --> 00:52:33,680 gives corbell's story a lot more weight 1350 00:52:37,030 --> 00:52:35,200 doesn't it like 1351 00:52:39,670 --> 00:52:37,040 he's the one who kind of really brought 1352 00:52:41,030 --> 00:52:39,680 the trans medium i mean not solely but 1353 00:52:42,950 --> 00:52:41,040 he was one of the people who brought the 1354 00:52:46,230 --> 00:52:42,960 whole trans medium thing to the 1355 00:52:47,270 --> 00:52:46,240 foreground with his uh you know videos 1356 00:52:50,309 --> 00:52:47,280 and 1357 00:52:52,950 --> 00:52:50,319 the sphere going into the water right 1358 00:52:55,270 --> 00:52:52,960 and the reports of witnesses um talking 1359 00:52:57,430 --> 00:52:55,280 about transmedium right and language 1360 00:52:59,589 --> 00:52:57,440 like this gets passed and is in the ndaa 1361 00:53:01,750 --> 00:52:59,599 and yet people still come out and say 1362 00:53:03,589 --> 00:53:01,760 he's full of it 1363 00:53:05,349 --> 00:53:03,599 absolutely i think 1364 00:53:07,270 --> 00:53:05,359 there's misconceptions about jeremy you 1365 00:53:08,790 --> 00:53:07,280 know i work quite closely with him on 1366 00:53:10,710 --> 00:53:08,800 that story getting that story out which 1367 00:53:12,309 --> 00:53:10,720 is very very important i think in terms 1368 00:53:14,230 --> 00:53:12,319 of that story is just there's just more 1369 00:53:15,990 --> 00:53:14,240 questions and there are answers like 1370 00:53:18,069 --> 00:53:16,000 jeremy isn't turning around saying oh 1371 00:53:20,549 --> 00:53:18,079 it's definitely kind of like um trans 1372 00:53:22,309 --> 00:53:20,559 medium um uap or anything like that he's 1373 00:53:25,430 --> 00:53:22,319 just like questions you know okay why 1374 00:53:27,270 --> 00:53:25,440 did they um say it was um you know 1375 00:53:29,990 --> 00:53:27,280 drones for instance okay we've got 1376 00:53:31,750 --> 00:53:30,000 sources on record saying actually 1377 00:53:34,069 --> 00:53:31,760 looking back at it perhaps that wasn't 1378 00:53:36,710 --> 00:53:34,079 the way to go about in terms of defining 1379 00:53:39,430 --> 00:53:36,720 it um because we couldn't 1380 00:53:42,390 --> 00:53:39,440 definitely say they were drones um the 1381 00:53:44,710 --> 00:53:42,400 thing that was missing was origin um so 1382 00:53:46,470 --> 00:53:44,720 the bass straight which was of being 1383 00:53:48,390 --> 00:53:46,480 kind of like the origin 1384 00:53:49,589 --> 00:53:48,400 i've got on good information they 1385 00:53:51,430 --> 00:53:49,599 searched that and they didn't find 1386 00:53:53,270 --> 00:53:51,440 a single drone on that ship 1387 00:53:57,030 --> 00:53:53,280 it wouldn't have been hard it was 1388 00:54:01,910 --> 00:53:57,040 dr by long long beach red or what was it 1389 00:54:04,950 --> 00:54:01,920 yeah yes i think i think during um 1390 00:54:06,470 --> 00:54:04,960 during a large portion of the harassment 1391 00:54:07,670 --> 00:54:06,480 of us 1392 00:54:09,750 --> 00:54:07,680 maybe ships 1393 00:54:12,230 --> 00:54:09,760 that ship was adopted in yeah at long 1394 00:54:14,069 --> 00:54:12,240 beach so it couldn't be i don't know we 1395 00:54:15,750 --> 00:54:14,079 should search that that's kind of tough 1396 00:54:18,630 --> 00:54:15,760 you know it's right 1397 00:54:21,589 --> 00:54:18,640 we can just it's right by us uh 1398 00:54:24,710 --> 00:54:21,599 you know let's just blame it on the ship 1399 00:54:26,870 --> 00:54:24,720 but not search it yeah absolutely yeah 1400 00:54:28,230 --> 00:54:26,880 and uh i think we just got like 1401 00:54:29,990 --> 00:54:28,240 lots of questions 1402 00:54:31,589 --> 00:54:30,000 in terms of that 1403 00:54:34,150 --> 00:54:31,599 i'm very very wary of people who that 1404 00:54:35,670 --> 00:54:34,160 who make definitive conclusions it's 1405 00:54:37,349 --> 00:54:35,680 kind of like actually one's gonna have 1406 00:54:39,349 --> 00:54:37,359 all the answers and i think what we want 1407 00:54:41,829 --> 00:54:39,359 to really get across that's true is that 1408 00:54:43,750 --> 00:54:41,839 there are more questions to answer in 1409 00:54:45,990 --> 00:54:43,760 terms of that and i asked 1410 00:54:47,990 --> 00:54:46,000 the pentagon i said look can you confirm 1411 00:54:50,470 --> 00:54:48,000 where the origin of the so-called drones 1412 00:54:54,069 --> 00:54:50,480 were they can't do that they said that 1413 00:54:56,309 --> 00:54:54,079 to me so still um still an open story 1414 00:54:57,349 --> 00:54:56,319 but i wouldn't i wouldn't kind of like 1415 00:54:59,270 --> 00:54:57,359 um 1416 00:55:00,710 --> 00:54:59,280 i wouldn't put all my money behind this 1417 00:55:02,870 --> 00:55:00,720 story and say it's definitely kind of 1418 00:55:05,030 --> 00:55:02,880 like trans medium ufos it's just one of 1419 00:55:07,109 --> 00:55:05,040 it's just a good example of kind of like 1420 00:55:08,710 --> 00:55:07,119 a case where they've got plenty of kind 1421 00:55:11,510 --> 00:55:08,720 of information out there but they're 1422 00:55:13,670 --> 00:55:11,520 still unable to determine the origin of 1423 00:55:14,950 --> 00:55:13,680 the craft and that's quite completely 1424 00:55:17,109 --> 00:55:14,960 for that 1425 00:55:19,270 --> 00:55:17,119 that is being honest what uh drives a 1426 00:55:21,589 --> 00:55:19,280 lot of the secrecy like the last thing 1427 00:55:23,910 --> 00:55:21,599 that the the you know the military 1428 00:55:24,950 --> 00:55:23,920 establishments wants to admit is that 1429 00:55:27,670 --> 00:55:24,960 there's 1430 00:55:29,829 --> 00:55:27,680 um you know applying objects transmedium 1431 00:55:31,829 --> 00:55:29,839 objects that they can't identify going 1432 00:55:33,750 --> 00:55:31,839 in their restricted airspace whether 1433 00:55:35,589 --> 00:55:33,760 it's a drone or not they don't want to 1434 00:55:38,309 --> 00:55:35,599 admit that to people you know because 1435 00:55:39,990 --> 00:55:38,319 that's a huge vulnerability like uh was 1436 00:55:43,750 --> 00:55:40,000 some of the documents i posted not too 1437 00:55:46,069 --> 00:55:43,760 long ago was back in 1952 yeah but um 1438 00:55:47,990 --> 00:55:46,079 you know it said in 1439 00:55:50,069 --> 00:55:48,000 the air force's paperwork and their very 1440 00:55:51,510 --> 00:55:50,079 own words and their administrative 1441 00:55:54,309 --> 00:55:51,520 paperwork that they could only 1442 00:55:56,150 --> 00:55:54,319 positively identify seven percent 1443 00:55:57,670 --> 00:55:56,160 you know but that's not what they tell 1444 00:55:59,430 --> 00:55:57,680 the public they don't go and say oh no 1445 00:56:02,630 --> 00:55:59,440 we can only positively identify seven 1446 00:56:04,710 --> 00:56:02,640 percent of these now they say that 20 1447 00:56:06,390 --> 00:56:04,720 remain unidentified because the rest 1448 00:56:10,789 --> 00:56:06,400 they have to guess 1449 00:56:12,390 --> 00:56:10,799 balloon or probably balloon yada yada 1450 00:56:14,230 --> 00:56:12,400 you know and that's exactly what they're 1451 00:56:16,870 --> 00:56:14,240 doing here with these drones 1452 00:56:20,309 --> 00:56:16,880 you know or the uavs or ufos with the 1453 00:56:23,910 --> 00:56:20,319 2019 events they're putting together 1454 00:56:25,430 --> 00:56:23,920 probables you know based on uh prosaic 1455 00:56:29,510 --> 00:56:25,440 answers right 1456 00:56:32,069 --> 00:56:29,520 that is probably a uav probable drone 1457 00:56:33,190 --> 00:56:32,079 you know but what they're not saying 1458 00:56:34,390 --> 00:56:33,200 which is 1459 00:56:36,309 --> 00:56:34,400 what they're really afraid to say 1460 00:56:38,470 --> 00:56:36,319 because it makes them vulnerable is we 1461 00:56:40,150 --> 00:56:38,480 can't positively identify it we don't 1462 00:56:43,270 --> 00:56:40,160 know 1463 00:56:45,829 --> 00:56:43,280 absolutely that is the crux you can't 1464 00:56:47,750 --> 00:56:45,839 they're unable to positively identify 1465 00:56:49,510 --> 00:56:47,760 what's going on and i think a key part 1466 00:56:51,030 --> 00:56:49,520 of this as well and in terms of the 1467 00:56:52,390 --> 00:56:51,040 trans medium language is actually having 1468 00:56:55,030 --> 00:56:52,400 a joined up approach you know like 1469 00:56:57,589 --> 00:56:55,040 you're a sailor you see something um go 1470 00:56:59,750 --> 00:56:57,599 into the water um it just came from the 1471 00:57:01,430 --> 00:56:59,760 sky okay then you need space command 1472 00:57:03,270 --> 00:57:01,440 space force to curve like feeding did 1473 00:57:04,950 --> 00:57:03,280 they track anything coming in did the 1474 00:57:08,630 --> 00:57:04,960 air force see anything coming to the 1475 00:57:11,349 --> 00:57:08,640 atmosphere okay and then we go to um no 1476 00:57:15,589 --> 00:57:11,359 is it noah um 1477 00:57:18,069 --> 00:57:15,599 um the oceanic agency oceanic people see 1478 00:57:20,630 --> 00:57:18,079 um and also the us navy as well in terms 1479 00:57:23,109 --> 00:57:20,640 of its submarine um sensors under water 1480 00:57:25,109 --> 00:57:23,119 sensors so okay so 1481 00:57:26,870 --> 00:57:25,119 just need that 1482 00:57:29,829 --> 00:57:26,880 and that takes four months to do all 1483 00:57:34,150 --> 00:57:30,710 yeah 1484 00:57:36,069 --> 00:57:34,160 and i i think that's another qualm of um 1485 00:57:38,309 --> 00:57:36,079 politicians as well you need that joined 1486 00:57:40,630 --> 00:57:38,319 up approach and it needs to be done more 1487 00:57:42,309 --> 00:57:40,640 efficiently um there needs to be good 1488 00:57:44,870 --> 00:57:42,319 communication going on there and there 1489 00:57:47,589 --> 00:57:44,880 needs to be kind of like an operator 1490 00:57:49,750 --> 00:57:47,599 get that going a vehicle you know so um 1491 00:57:51,990 --> 00:57:49,760 yeah it needs to be a lot quicker i 1492 00:57:54,309 --> 00:57:52,000 think and um i think katie you're pretty 1493 00:57:55,510 --> 00:57:54,319 aware of the inefficiencies and time it 1494 00:57:57,670 --> 00:57:55,520 takes things to get done in a 1495 00:57:59,829 --> 00:57:57,680 bureaucracy 1496 00:58:01,910 --> 00:57:59,839 unfortunately so 1497 00:58:03,589 --> 00:58:01,920 yeah i worked on a joint army navy 1498 00:58:05,990 --> 00:58:03,599 program and anytime you have more than 1499 00:58:08,230 --> 00:58:06,000 one branch or more than one agency just 1500 00:58:10,710 --> 00:58:08,240 be prepared for if you thought dmv 1501 00:58:12,549 --> 00:58:10,720 bureaucracy was bad try doubling it 1502 00:58:14,309 --> 00:58:12,559 right and that's every time you add a 1503 00:58:17,190 --> 00:58:14,319 new player 1504 00:58:18,950 --> 00:58:17,200 yeah that's extraordinary now it is the 1505 00:58:20,789 --> 00:58:18,960 first that you just brought up something 1506 00:58:22,950 --> 00:58:20,799 just by having a little crosstalk there 1507 00:58:25,349 --> 00:58:22,960 is that you two haven't as we said you 1508 00:58:28,950 --> 00:58:25,359 two haven't had a conversation like this 1509 00:58:30,710 --> 00:58:28,960 uh before right just a couple dm's so um 1510 00:58:33,190 --> 00:58:30,720 it'd also be cool to throw a wild card 1511 00:58:34,549 --> 00:58:33,200 in there of uh do you have any questions 1512 00:58:36,069 --> 00:58:34,559 for each other or anything that you'd 1513 00:58:38,150 --> 00:58:36,079 like to say to each other chris and 1514 00:58:39,589 --> 00:58:38,160 katie 1515 00:58:42,390 --> 00:58:39,599 i i just want to say 1516 00:58:44,870 --> 00:58:42,400 um i think it goes about saying i i just 1517 00:58:46,230 --> 00:58:44,880 said ma like everything you you've done 1518 00:58:48,789 --> 00:58:46,240 and um 1519 00:58:52,390 --> 00:58:48,799 i i i want to ask how did you get into 1520 00:58:54,150 --> 00:58:52,400 this um topic i know that you 1521 00:58:55,829 --> 00:58:54,160 i think you said you had an interview or 1522 00:58:57,829 --> 00:58:55,839 something with uh with melon at one 1523 00:58:59,750 --> 00:58:57,839 point or there was some kind of meeting 1524 00:59:01,589 --> 00:58:59,760 that he was in and you were in i thought 1525 00:59:04,870 --> 00:59:01,599 that quite interesting yeah 1526 00:59:08,549 --> 00:59:04,880 yeah so um most people found out about 1527 00:59:11,109 --> 00:59:08,559 me because i arranged a private event 1528 00:59:13,190 --> 00:59:11,119 with chris mellon to come speak to 1529 00:59:15,349 --> 00:59:13,200 um basically a foreign policy fellowship 1530 00:59:17,510 --> 00:59:15,359 i'm a part of um 1531 00:59:18,950 --> 00:59:17,520 but i found out about it because i 1532 00:59:20,470 --> 00:59:18,960 was a 1533 00:59:23,030 --> 00:59:20,480 foreign policy volunteer on the biting 1534 00:59:26,870 --> 00:59:23,040 campaign um i interned for him way back 1535 00:59:28,950 --> 00:59:26,880 back in the day um and 1536 00:59:30,549 --> 00:59:28,960 yeah we were given the opportunity to 1537 00:59:31,990 --> 00:59:30,559 meet with a lot of like senior officials 1538 00:59:34,230 --> 00:59:32,000 as kind of like professional development 1539 00:59:35,910 --> 00:59:34,240 and one of them was john podesta who 1540 00:59:37,750 --> 00:59:35,920 obviously had his own thoughts and 1541 00:59:39,589 --> 00:59:37,760 feelings and recommended leslie kane's 1542 00:59:42,230 --> 00:59:39,599 ufo's book and that's kind of how i dove 1543 00:59:43,910 --> 00:59:42,240 in and i was really frustrated because 1544 00:59:46,789 --> 00:59:43,920 you know i've worked 1545 00:59:50,470 --> 00:59:46,799 tangentially to this national security 1546 00:59:52,549 --> 00:59:50,480 field for my you know a decade now and 1547 00:59:53,349 --> 00:59:52,559 all of my friends are people who are 1548 00:59:55,030 --> 00:59:53,359 like 1549 00:59:57,190 --> 00:59:55,040 constantly talking about this kind of 1550 00:59:59,109 --> 00:59:57,200 stuff and anytime i would bring it up it 1551 01:00:01,270 --> 00:59:59,119 was just crickets and i was getting 1552 01:00:03,190 --> 01:00:01,280 really annoyed and

01:00:06,640 maybe you'll listen to him because he 1556 01:00:11,750 --> 01:00:09,599 has an impressive title and whatnot so 1557 01:00:14,470 --> 01:00:11,760 um i basically harassed chris mellon on 1558 01:00:16,870 --> 01:00:14,480 linkedin until he agreed to be friends 1559 01:00:19,589 --> 01:00:16,880 with me um which is kind of my approach 1560 01:00:20,789 --> 01:00:19,599 in life in general so that's how i ended 1561 01:00:23,829 --> 01:00:20,799 up here 1562 01:00:24,630 --> 01:00:23,839 um but yeah no honestly chris like i'm 1563 01:00:27,109 --> 01:00:24,640 just 1564

01:00:42,470 --> 01:00:38,880 people realize how much work 1571 01:00:44,150 --> 01:00:42,480 goes into that um day in and day out i 1572 01:00:46,150 --> 01:00:44,160 ran my own nonprofit for a while and i 1573 01:00:48,390 --> 01:00:46,160 know that like it's not a nine to five 1574 01:00:50,549 --> 01:00:48,400 you're never off the clock so just 1575 01:00:52,710 --> 01:00:50,559 massive

actually what's the um relationship 1582 01:01:09,190 --> 01:01:06,160 between like john podesta 1583 01:01:12,150 --> 01:01:09,200 and joe biden and how do you think 1584 01:01:13,750 --> 01:01:12,160 um joe biden would approach this issue 1585 01:01:15,670 --> 01:01:13,760 are you able to like read into it just 1586 01:01:16,549 --> 01:01:15,680 from his character 1587 01:01:18,309 --> 01:01:16,559 so 1588 01:01:21,030 --> 01:01:18,319 i mean i don't know much much about 1589 01:01:22,789 --> 01:01:21,040 podesta i know that um i mean obviously 1590 01:01:24,870 --> 01:01:22,799 he was like white house chief of staff 1591 01:01:26,630 --> 01:01:24,880 in the clinton era 1592 01:01:28,710 --> 01:01:26,640 and so he was very deeply enmeshed in 1593 01:01:30,549 --> 01:01:28,720 the clinton world the biting campaign 1594 01:01:32,950 --> 01:01:30,559 their foreign policy volunteers were 1595 01:01:34,630 --> 01:01:32,960 basically a mixture of people who were 1596 01:01:37,030 --> 01:01:34,640 like really high up like that but 1597 01:01:39,190 --> 01:01:37,040 couldn't quit their jobs to like join 1598 01:01:42,309 --> 01:01:39,200 the campaign and then people 1599 01:01:44,390 --> 01:01:42,319 you know much much different like me who 1600 01:01:46,069 --> 01:01:44,400 you know maybe had worked on other 1601 01:01:48,390 --> 01:01:46,079 competitors campaigns and were trying to 1602 01:01:49,750 --> 01:01:48,400 kind of cohesively contribute and rally 1603 01:01:51,670 --> 01:01:49,760 around the nominee 1604 01:01:54,789 --> 01:01:51,680 um so i really can't speak much to 1605 01:01:56,069 --> 01:01:54,799 podesta um in terms of 1606 01:01:57,670 --> 01:01:56,079 joe 1607 01:02:00,230 --> 01:01:57,680 i would say that the biggest thing to 1608 01:02:03,270 --> 01:02:00,240 understand about him is he's very 1609 01:02:05,430 --> 01:02:03,280 he has a lot of respect for senate norms 1610 01:02:09,510 --> 01:02:05,440 and procedures and processes right he 1611 01:02:12,270 --> 01:02:09,520 spent 30 years in the senate um and so 1612 01:02:16,309 --> 01:02:12,280 he's going to take things very 1613 01:02:18,829 --> 01:02:16,319 procedurally based um which i think is 1614 01:02:21,109 --> 01:02:18,839 reflective of how we're going in in 1615 01:02:23,990 --> 01:02:21,119 congress um 1616 01:02:24,710 --> 01:02:24,000 however he also has a wild streak i mean 1617 01:02:37,750 --> 01:02:24,720 i 1618 01:02:39,029 --> 01:02:37,760 speeches because you would 1619 01:02:40,950 --> 01:02:39,039 we would write 1620 01:02:43,270 --> 01:02:40,960 well not me but the speechwriters would 1621 01:02:45,510 --> 01:02:43,280 write a speech for him and then he'd go 1622 01:02:47,750 --> 01:02:45,520 and just start spewing off you know the 1623 01:02:49,190 --> 01:02:47,760 unemployment rate in some small town and 1624 01:02:51,430 --> 01:02:49,200 the top employers and this and that and 1625 01:02:53,750 --> 01:02:51,440 you'd have all of us going no no no stay 1626 01:02:55,750 --> 01:02:53,760 on script and then we'd check it and 1627 01:02:58,069 --> 01:02:55,760 he'd be right it was just like this wild 1628 01:03:00,549 --> 01:02:58,079 thing the man has an encyclopedic 1629 01:03:01,829 --> 01:03:00,559 memory um so 1630 01:03:03,430 --> 01:03:01,839 you know i think it's really going to 1631 01:03:06,470 --> 01:03:03,440 depend on 1632 01:03:08,309 --> 01:03:06,480 if he can get enough advisors who are 1633 01:03:11,270 --> 01:03:08,319 just constantly pushing this in front of 1634 01:03:13,910 --> 01:03:11,280 him um so i look at who's on the nsc 1635 01:03:15,510 --> 01:03:13,920 which kind of rotates um basically 1636 01:03:18,549 --> 01:03:15,520 people are detailed from other agencies 1637 01:03:19,990 --> 01:03:18,559 so you'll have cia folks dod folks and 1638 01:03:21,829 --> 01:03:20,000 they kind of rotate in and out on a 1639 01:03:23,589 --> 01:03:21,839 yearly basis so i'd pay attention to 1640 01:03:25,589 --> 01:03:23,599 that and i think that would probably be 1641 01:03:27,750 --> 01:03:25,599 your biggest indicator of where things 1642 01:03:29,589 --> 01:03:27,760 will go at the presidential level 1643 01:03:31,510 --> 01:03:29,599 i think the national security council 1644 01:03:33,910 --> 01:03:31,520 probably has a lot more to do with this 1645 01:03:37,510 --> 01:03:33,920 stuff than we'd imagine if you were to 1646 01:03:38,950 --> 01:03:37,520 ask me i know it's a long way from 1953 1647 01:03:41,589 --> 01:03:38,960 but uh 1648 01:03:42,549 -->
