The Dark Horde Podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-dark-horde A Japanese billionaire is looking for a 'life partner' to fly with him to the moon Link: https://www.cnn.com/2020/01/13/tech/japanese-billionaire-moon-intl-hnk-scli-scn/index.html Hong Kong (CNN Business)It sounds like the plot of a science fiction movie — but Japanese billionaire Yusaku Maezawa is serious about his search for a special someone to join him on a space voyage to the moon. Having recently split up with his girlfriend, fashion mogul Maezawa has launched an online appeal for a female "life partner" to accompany him on SpaceX's maiden tourist voyage — a slingshot trip around the moon tentatively scheduled for 2023. "As feelings of loneliness and emptiness slowly begin to surge upon me, there's one thing that I think about: continuing to love one woman," 44-year-old Maezawa wrote Thursday in an online appeal. "I want to find a 'life partner.' With that future partner of mine, I want to shout our love and world peace from outer space." Maezawa, who founded Japan's popular online shopping site Zozotown, is worth an estimated $2 billion, according to Forbes. A rare, eccentric figure among Japan's usually conservative entrepreneurs, he made global headlines in 2018, when Elon Musk's SpaceX revealed that he had chartered a flight aboard the company's Big Falcon Rocket. 'A special someone' Writing on his website, Maezawa said he thought the lunar trip was a good chance to "seriously face up the idea of 'continuing to love one woman' which I'd only really had a hazy image about." According to the conditions listed on the website, applicants must be single women aged 20 or over, with a "bright personality" and always positive, have an interest in going to space — and "wish for world peace." The deadline for applications is January 17, with the final decision scheduled to be made by Maezawa at the end of March. Applicants are asked to provide their height, job, hobbies, "special skill" and "selling points," their impression of Maezawa, and a photo of themselves. The matchmaking search will be filmed for a new documentary, "Full Moon Lovers," which will be shown on streaming service AbemaTV.

According to the ONI spokesperson, these documents were either labeled "SECRET" or "TOP SECRET" by the agencies that provided them, and that sharing the information with the public "would cause exceptionally grave damage to the National Security of the United States." However, in November 2019, several naval officers who witnessed the incident aboard the Nimitz told Popular Mechanics that they had seen a much longer video of the encounter that was between 8 and 10 minutes long. These original recordings were promptly collected and erased by "unknown individuals" who arrived on the ship by helicopter shortly after the incident, one officer said. Luis Elizondo, a former Pentagon staffer who helped make the Navy video public, told Vice that "people should not be surprised by the revelation that other videos exist and at greater length."

Vært: Anders Høeg Nissen Medvirkende: Jens Ramskov og Mads Nyvold I denne uges udgave af Transformator tager vi først ned på havets bund med Jens Ramskov, der skal fortælle om minedrift i oceanernes dyb. Her er masser af rige forekomster af metaller og mineraler, men det giver naturligvis ekstra udfordringer og ricisi at skulle grave under vand - også for miljøet. Fra havbunden skal vi så op og ud i verdensrummet – måske. Mads Nyvold kommer i studiet og fortæller om SpaceX’ kommende knap 118 meter høje raket Big Falcon Rocket. Endelig skal vi uddele både Ugens Transformer og Ugens Kortslutning, der denne gang handler om sundhedsdata – både nogle der sjusker med dem, og nogle der krypterer. Og så glemte vi helt at fejre et års fødselsdag i sidste uge – Transformator har rundet sit første jubilæum, og det er vi både glade for og stolte af. Links Mineindustrien jagter metaller og mineraler på havets bund Sådan vil SpaceX pendle til Mars – og videre ud i solsystemet Mindst 500 patienters journaler med følsomme persondata er solgt ved en fejl Rigshospitalet: DNA-data fra syge beskyttes med kryptering under overførsel til Risø

For nylig afslørede rumfartsvirksomheden SpaceX, at virksomheden har solgt sin første billet til en tur rundt om månen. I 2023 skal den japanske milliardær Yusaku Maezawa skydes op med en ny raket med navnet Big Falcon Rocket. Missionen er ikke bare en turisttur, den skal også bane vejen mod fremtidige missioner til Mars. Men det er ikke kun japanske milliardærer, der sigter efter stjernerne. Der sker en rivende udvikling inden for civil rumfart, hvor den danske sattelitvirksomhed GOMspace og Orbex, som har kontor i Hvidovre, også har gjort sig bemærket. Digitalt drømmer sig i denne uge hen mod fremtiden, hvor vi kan tage en chartertur til Mars. Værter: Chris Lehmann og Esben Hardenberg.

A mostly SpaceX episode as the ambitious company provides updated details regarding its huge new rocket and introduces its first astronauts. Mat Kaplan shares more from the company’s headquarters, while Planetary Society Digital Editor explains and explores the BFR.  Jason also celebrates the successful landing of two asteroid “rovers” from Japan’s Hayabusa2 spacecraft.  And we’ll tell you What’s Up in the night sky as we offer another space trivia contest.  Learn and hear more at: http://www.planetary.org/multimedia/planetary-radio/show/2018/0926-2018-jason-davis-spacex.htmlLearn more about your ad choices.

Hoy en El Viajero de la Ciencia… Analizamos las consecuencias del Huracán Florence y del tifón Mangkhut, analizamos los problemas de la selva ante el avance de la agricultura industrial, nos adentramos en las incógnitas de las que consideran primera pintura humana, y nos preguntamos cómo se tallaron las Venus prehistóricas. TITULAR 1-UN JAPONÉS SERÁ EL PRIMERO TURISTA QUE VIAJARÁ A LA LUNA Space X, la tecnológica de Elon Musk, ha dado a conocer la identidad del que será el primer turista lunar, desde la misión estadounidense del Apolo en 1972: un magnate japonés de 42 años llamado Yusaku Maezawa, que planea ya su siguiente viaje a la luna, acompañado de artistas de todo el mundo. El viaje se llevará a cabo a bordo del Big Falcon Rocket; el primer vuelo de prueba se prevé para el próximo año. TITULAR 2- GREENPEACE "EMPOTRA" UN COCHE EN EL MUSEO REINA SOFIA PARA DENUNCIAR EL CALENTAMIENTO GLOBAL La acción se ha llevado a cabo esta misma mañana, el mismo día que Greenpeace ha presentado un estudio a nivel europeo en el que se concluye que el número de automóviles diésel y de gasolina en las carreteras europeas deberá reducirse en más de un 80% para 2035, ha informado la organización en un comunicado. TITULAR 3: UNO DE CADA 10 UNIVERSITARIOS TIENE TENDENCIAS SUICIDAS EN EL PRIMER AÑO DE CARRERA Así lo constata un estudio coordinado por el Instituto Hospital del Mar de Investigaciones Médicas (IMIM) de Barcelona. A medio camino entre la adolescencia y la edad adulta, los chavales se enfrentan a un ciclo de cambios emocionales y sociales que pueden pasar factura a su salud mental. TITULAR 4: EN BARCELONA HAY MÁS DE 200.000 RATAS DE ALCANTARILLA, LO QUE SUPONE UN IMPORTANTE "PROBLEMA DE SALUD PÚBLICA" Barcelona es pionera en realizar el primer censo de las cloacas. La Agencia de Salud Pública de Barcelona estima que hay 1 rata de cloaca por cada 7 habitantes y el biólogo Tomás Montalvo, quien ha liderado el estudio bacteriológico a estos animales, afirma que las enfermedades de las ratas podrían afectar a los humanos. TITULAR 5: EL MÓVIL DEL FUTURO PODRÍA ESTAR FABRICADO CON TECNOLOGÍA ANIMAL El ojo de un escarabajo, el fino pelo de un saltamontes, las escamas de las alas de las mariposas… Y todo gracias a la biomímesis, o la ciencia de copiar los secretos de la naturaleza. Estos avances podrían dar como resultado que la próxima generación de dispositivos electrónicos fuera más inteligente, ligera y sostenible. TITULAR 6: TECNOLOGÍA AEROESPACIAL CON DESTINO A MARTE "MADE IN MADRID" La misión europea ExoMars, cuyo objetivo es la exploración de Marte, contará con tecnología aeroespacial "made in Madrid" gracias a la empresa Iberespacio, ubicada en Torrejón de Ardoz, que también trabaja actualmente en la fabricación de materiales para dos misiones a la Luna.

Netzagentur verteidigt geplante Regeln für Mobilfunk-Versteigerung In wenigen Wochen wird der Rahmen für die Versteigerung der 5G-Frequenzen in Deutschland festgezurrt und die Debatten werden hitziger. Der Präsident der Bundesnetzagentur, Jochen Homann, hat nun die Pläne seiner Behörde verteidigt, bei der Versteigerung keine lückenlose Versorgung zu verlangen. "Ein flächendeckender Ausbau mit der 5G Technologie bereits jetzt ist unverhältnismäßig teuer", sagte Homann. Die Netzagentur gehe mit ihren "Versorgungsauflagen an die Grenze des wirtschaftlich Zumutbaren und rechtlich Möglichen". Twitter bringt die chronologische Timeline zurück Twitter will seinen Nutzern mehr Kontrolle zubilligen: Sie sollen wieder darüber entscheiden können, wie die Timeline sortiert wird. Ursprünglich zeigte Twitter die Tweets einfach chronologisch an – oben waren die neuesten Beiträge zu lesen, weiter unten alles alte. Im Februar 2016 übernahm dann ein Algorithmus die Sortierung und "optimierte" die Reihenfolge der Tweets in der Timeline. Wer nun wieder ungefiltert immer das Neueste sehen will, kann das so einstellen. Kontaktloses Bezahlen in Europa auf dem Vormarsch In Europa wird mittlerweile fast jede zweite Kartenzahlung im stationären Handel und bei stationären Dienstleistungen kontaktlos vorgenommen. Dies entspricht einer Verdopplung der Quote aus dem Jahr 2017. Deutschland liegt im europaweiten Vergleich mit 15 Prozent zwar deutlich unter diesem Schnitt, der Wert bedeutet aber gleichwohl einer Verdreifachung gegenüber dem Vorjahr. Zu diesen Ergebnissen kommt eine Analyse des Kreditkartenunternehmens Mastercard. Japanischer Milliardär soll mit SpaceX zum Mond fliegen Der japanische Milliardär Yusaku Maezawa soll als erster Weltraumtourist des privaten Raumfahrtunternehmens SpaceX zum Mond fliegen. Der Flug mit der Big Falcon Rocket werde ungefähr eine Woche dauern und soll – "wenn alles gut geht" – im Jahr 2023 stattfinden, sagte SpaceX-Chef Elon Musk. Das Raumschiff, das erst noch gebaut werden muss und zunächst ausgiebig getestet werden soll, werde um den Mond herumfliegen und sich ihm dabei auf etwa 200 Kilometer nähern. Die Entwicklung des Raumschiffs soll etwa fünf Milliarden US-Dollar kosten. Diese und alle weiteren aktuellen Nachrichten finden sie auf heise.de

Hoy en El Viajero de la Ciencia… Hablamos sobre todo de tecnología. Analizamos el escándalo de Facebook y nos sumergimos en el mundo de las líneas móviles entre máquinas, nos preguntamos ¿qué son? ¿cómo funcionan? ¿por qué han crecido tanto?

Un lunar artificial detecta de forma precoz el cáncer Colocado sobre la piel, el tatuaje detecta la elevación del calcio que lleva aparejado el desarrollo de un tumor e induce la liberación de melanina para crear un ‘lunar de alarma'. TITULAR 2. Neandertales y 'Homo sapiens' coexistieron menos de 1.000 años en la Región Cantábrica. El Centro Nacional para la Interpretación de la Evolución Huama participa en la datación por radiocarbono de trece yacimientos cuyos resultados publicados en PLOS ONE precisan la cohabitación de ambas especies en esta región del suroeste de Europa durante un lapso de tiempo que reduce sus posibilidades de interacción y reforzaría la hipótesis de una causa de extinción intrínseca. TITULAR 3: La NASA lanza con éxito la misión TESS para buscar nuevos exoplanetas Pasadas las 22:51 de ayer, la NASA logró enviar al espacio su nueva misión para buscar mundos fuera del sistema solar, después de retrasar su puesta en órbita por problemas técnicos el pasado lunes. A bordo de un cohete Falcon 9, la agencia norteamericana ha conseguido el despegue exitoso de TESS desde el complejo de lanzamiento 40 de Cabo Cañaveral, situado en Florida. TITULAR 4: Primer ensayo clínico en Europa para probar CRISPR en humanos La compañía CRISPR Therapeutics recibe luz verde para realizar el primer ensayo clínico en Europa con CRISPR-Cas para probar su seguridad y eficacia contra la beta talasemia, una enfermedad rara que provoca que los pacientes produzcan menos hemoglobina de lo normal. TITULAR 5: Una terapia génica evita la enfermedad que obliga a recibir transfusiones sanguíneas de por vida El nuevo tratamiento consiste en extraer células madre hematopoyéticas de la médula ósea de los pacientes e inyectarles LentiGlobin, un fármaco basado en una variante desactivada del VIH que contiene una pequeña secuencia de ADN. TITULAR 6: Primeros pasos hacia la construcción del Big Falcon Rocket de SpaceX Elon Musk ha mostrado el molde en el que se construiría el Big Falcon Rocket o, simplemente, BFR. El llamado a ir a Marte. El gigantesco cohete ha dejado de ser una mera prueba de concepto teórico y que los planes del fundador de SpaceX van en serio. Según explicó el año pasado, el BFR superará los cien metros de longitud y alcanzará nada menos que nueve metros de diámetro.

The biggest launch round-up in Talking Space history and one of the biggest talks of the year...all in one show! On this episode, we begin with the launch round-up looking at the upcoming launches of an Atlas V, two Falcon 9s, a Long March, an H-II A, a Soyuz, and a Rockot rocket...all within less than two weeks of each other. We also have the announcement of the new launch date for the next Orbital ATK resupply mission to the ISS that will be once again on an Antares out of Virginia. We then discuss that exact company, Orbital ATK, being acquired by Northrop Grumman and what implications that might have, and what the motive was behind it. Could it have been too much competition? In addition, we discuss the BEAM module and how it may be getting more time in space. We also discuss spacewalks being made to repair some broken parts on the ISS on the same day as the first official meeting of the National Space Council. Although this was recorded before the actual meeting, we still speculate to the NSC's future. Are NASA and Russia working together on a new lunar orbiting outpost? Well the stories are reporting that about the Deep Space Gateway, but you'll have to listen in to find out why most of the news stories you've probably read got it wrong. It's also with sadness but not much surprise that we announce another delay in the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope, now slipping to 2019.  The biggest news has to be out of IAC. Although we will have a full wrap-up in a future episode, we had to discuss Elon Musk's speech. His talk announced the BFR, sometimes called the Big Falcon Rocket, and other people interpret the "F" for a different word. Regardless, this monster is expected to lead to the phase-out of all previous SpaceX rockets. It boasts the ability to send payloads to orbit, people to the ISS, create a moon base, and land cargo on Mars in 5 years with crew in 7. He also mentioned point-to-point travel on Earth using the rocket, getting anywhere in under an hour. How plausible is this? We discuss it and a lot more on this one! Show recorded 10-4-2017 Host: Sawyer Rosenstein Panelists: Gene Mikulka and Mark Ratterman
