Over 50 years after Americans walked on the moon for the first time, the U.S. finds itself in a new modern space race.  Several countries are now eagerly trying to land on the dark side of the moon in an effort to one day tap its resources.  Just this week, India became the fourth nation on Thursday to successfully land on the moon. That was just days after Russia's first lunar mission in nearly five decades failed.  Former NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine joined Chris Foster earlier this week, just before India' historic success, to discuss why there is an urgency to land on the south pole of the moon and why the water, and minerals there matter so much. Bridenstine explained how establishing bases near and on the moon could benefit private businesses and be a launching pad to future Mars missions. Bridenstine also explained why the he fears China will establish a moon base first and why it's important the government takes the new moon race very seriously.  We made edits for time and thought you might like to hear our entire conversation with Former NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine.

Despite their being several more months of the year left to go, right around now is the time of each year when a big share of the "comedians to watch" lists come out. Namely, the Just For Laughs Montreal New Faces of Comedy and Variety's Top 10 Comics to Watch came out recently, highlighting what are supposed to be 2023's class of comedians you should be paying attention to if you haven't done so already. That said, there is much more nuance that goes into picking the many dozens of comics between those two lists (FYI, Vulture's Comedians You Should and Will Know List has yet to come out) and we enlisted comedy expert and historian and beloved comic Mike Bridenstine to make choice picks from those already highly selective picks. Essentially, Bridenstine and us do an all-star line-up of JFL and Variety's all-star line-up in this very special episode of TCB Field Report.

The collectors and curators of comedy history are rare, but they are usually delightful beings to not only shoot the breeze with, but learn the tenor of a comedy scene in decades past. One of our favorite comedy folks, Mike Bridenstine, transplanted from a time period of Chicago comedy that has vastly influenced comedy at this very moment, has captured an exhaustive history of those years in his book The Perfect Amount of Wrong, which boasts the early days of Kumail Nanjiani, Hannibal Buress, Cameron Esposito, Jena Friedman, and many more. We talk to Bridenstine about what it takes to pull off a historical account of comedy, why to do it, and what is holding back TCB's Jake Kroeger from doing his own comedy history book. Also, Mike really wanted this episode to be called "Butthole Vietnam" and we love making our guests happy.

Link: https://www.nbcnews.com/science/space/china-launches-mission-bring-back-material-moon-rcna184 China launched an ambitious mission on Tuesday to bring back rocks and debris from the moon's surface for the first time in more than 40 years — an undertaking that could boost human understanding of the moon and of the solar system more generally. Chang'e 5 — named for the Chinese moon goddess The mission's key task is to drill 2 meters (almost 7 feet) beneath the moon's surface and scoop up about 2 kilograms (4.4 pounds) of rocks and other debris to be brought back to Earth, according to NASA. The mission, called Chang'e-5, is the latest step in an ambitious space program that China hopes will culminate with an international lunar research station and ultimately a human colony on the moon by the 2030s. The entire Chang'e-5 mission, from liftoff to the recovery of the rock samples, will be over in less than a month. How Will Joe Biden Handle Outer Space? Link: https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/11/how-will-joe-biden-handle-outer-space/#slide-1 Even Trump's critics will admit his administration has been great for space. Though reactions to the creation of the Space Force were mixed, its strategic importance hardly needs defending in light of China's and Russia's increased space capabilities. Other areas — reactivating the National Space Council, promoting the commercialization of space, and revitalizing NASA — have been generally lauded as victories. We can afford a little optimism here. After all, Biden has a history of supporting space initiatives. He almost certainly won't pull the plug on the Space Force. While the timeline for various Artemis Program missions will be pushed back (and space-policy experts already believed dates for key missions were motivated more by politics than sound engineering and logistics), it's unlikely these will be shuttered, either. Biden won't go full steam ahead into space the way Trump did, but neither is he looking to reverse recent progress. Jim Bridenstine, who has served as NASA Administrator since 2018, is among Trump's most successful appointments. Bridenstine's accomplishments include shepherding forward the Artemis Program and overseeing the Artemis Accords, a set of principles for international cooperation in space. The Accords are a milestone because they set the stage for future manned lunar missions. Unfortunately, Bridenstine has said he won't stay on at NASA, even if asked. Arecibo radio telescope, damaged beyond repair, seen from space Link: https://www.space.com/arecibo-telescope-damage-from-space-satellite-photos Satellites spotted gashes in the damaged Arecibo Observatory, which is set to be decommissioned by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). The 57-year-old radio telescope has sustained two cable failures which has made its massive dish too unstable to safely repair, according to the NSF. The cable failures have also damaged the massive dish, which spans a whopping 1,000 feet (305 meters) across, gouging holes in its delicate metal panels. "According to engineering assessments, even attempts of stabilization or testing the cables could result in accelerating the catastrophic failure," Ralph Gaume, director of the NSF's astronomy division, said during the news conference. "Engineers cannot tell us the safety margin of the structure, but they have advised NSF that the structure will collapse in the near future on its own." Arecibo Observatory, which is in Puerto Rico, is the location of the world's second-largest single-dish radio telescope. Because radio telescopes can work at all times of day and in all kinds of weather, the observatory operates 24 hours a day. While the observatory does a lot of astronomy work, it is perhaps most famous for being the site of the huge Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) message directed at the globular cluster M13 in 1974. Besides its scientific work, Arecibo is known for being the location of a climactic fight in "Goldeneye," a 1995 James Bond film starring Pierce Brosnan. Arecibo message Arecibo broadcast a pictorial message into space in 1974, aiming for M13 — a globular cluster of stars. It will take some time for the message to get there, as M13 is about 21,000 light-years away. Show Stuff Join the episode after party on Discord!

Link: https://www.nbcnews.com/science/space/china-launches-mission-bring-back-material-moon-rcna184 China launched an ambitious mission on Tuesday to bring back rocks and debris from the moon's surface for the first time in more than 40 years — an undertaking that could boost human understanding of the moon and of the solar system more generally. Chang'e 5 — named for the Chinese moon goddess The mission's key task is to drill 2 meters (almost 7 feet) beneath the moon's surface and scoop up about 2 kilograms (4.4 pounds) of rocks and other debris to be brought back to Earth, according to NASA. The mission, called Chang'e-5, is the latest step in an ambitious space program that China hopes will culminate with an international lunar research station and ultimately a human colony on the moon by the 2030s. The entire Chang'e-5 mission, from liftoff to the recovery of the rock samples, will be over in less than a month. How Will Joe Biden Handle Outer Space? Link: https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/11/how-will-joe-biden-handle-outer-space/#slide-1 Even Trump's critics will admit his administration has been great for space. Though reactions to the creation of the Space Force were mixed, its strategic importance hardly needs defending in light of China's and Russia's increased space capabilities. Other areas — reactivating the National Space Council, promoting the commercialization of space, and revitalizing NASA — have been generally lauded as victories. We can afford a little optimism here. After all, Biden has a history of supporting space initiatives. He almost certainly won't pull the plug on the Space Force. While the timeline for various Artemis Program missions will be pushed back (and space-policy experts already believed dates for key missions were motivated more by politics than sound engineering and logistics), it's unlikely these will be shuttered, either. Biden won't go full steam ahead into space the way Trump did, but neither is he looking to reverse recent progress. Jim Bridenstine, who has served as NASA Administrator since 2018, is among Trump's most successful appointments. Bridenstine's accomplishments include shepherding forward the Artemis Program and overseeing the Artemis Accords, a set of principles for international cooperation in space. The Accords are a milestone because they set the stage for future manned lunar missions. Unfortunately, Bridenstine has said he won't stay on at NASA, even if asked. Arecibo radio telescope, damaged beyond repair, seen from space Link: https://www.space.com/arecibo-telescope-damage-from-space-satellite-photos Satellites spotted gashes in the damaged Arecibo Observatory, which is set to be decommissioned by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). The 57-year-old radio telescope has sustained two cable failures which has made its massive dish too unstable to safely repair, according to the NSF. The cable failures have also damaged the massive dish, which spans a whopping 1,000 feet (305 meters) across, gouging holes in its delicate metal panels. "According to engineering assessments, even attempts of stabilization or testing the cables could result in accelerating the catastrophic failure," Ralph Gaume, director of the NSF's astronomy division, said during the news conference. "Engineers cannot tell us the safety margin of the structure, but they have advised NSF that the structure will collapse in the near future on its own."

The capsule, named Resilience, and its SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket rolled out to Launch Pad 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida late Monday into early Tuesday (Nov. 9-10), NASA officials said. The Falcon 9 is scheduled to launch Saturday evening (Nov. 14), sending four astronauts — NASA's Victor Glover, Mike Hopkins and Shannon Walker and Japan's Soichi Noguchi — to the orbiting lab on Crew-1, SpaceX's first operational astronaut mission for NASA. NASA's Commercial Crew Program awarded SpaceX a $2.6 billion contract in 2014 to fly at least six operational crewed missions to the space station. The six-month-long Crew-1 is the first of those contracted flights, but it won't be SpaceX's first-ever astronaut mission. That distinction goes to Demo-2, a test flight that sent NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley to the station for two months this past summer. SpaceX Kicks-Off Assembly on First Super Heavy Starship Booster in South Texas SpaceX's Super Heavy might be effectively complete in one month, and we couldn't be more excited. Link: https://interestingengineering.com/spacex-kicks-off-assembly-on-first-super-heavy-starship-booster-in-south-texas SpaceX kicks-off Starship Super Heavy assembly in South Texas Technically, SpaceX could build much smaller booster prototypes for the initial test flights into orbit — this might be done via modifying the tank design of Starship — but rocketry isn't an exceedingly modular enterprise, Teslarati reports. However, whether the move comes via confidence or contingency, SpaceX is jumping directly into Starship prototype development, toward a full-scale Super Heavy booster production and testing platform. Super Heavy could be one of SpaceX's easiest projects Indeed, in an inversion of the typical relationship, the next-gen rocket's booster will probably be much simpler than the upper stage — which would be the largest spacecraft with reusable parts and upper stage in the world. Lacking a need for a tiled heat shield, aerodynamic control surfaces (discounting Falcon-style grid fins), a conical nose, and possibly even internal header tanks, the only serious challenge Super Heavy faces for the first time is developing an engine section capable of feeding and supporting up to 28 Raptor engines. Jim Bridenstine will step aside as NASA chief when President-elect Biden takes over: report Link: https://www.space.com/nasa-chief-bridenstine-step-aside-president-biden NASA will apparently be getting a new leader after president-elect Joe Biden is sworn in. NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine won't remain in the agency's lead role in the Biden administration even if asked, Aerospace Daily & Defense Report reported on Sunday (Nov. 8). "You need somebody who has a close relationship with the president of the U.S. ... somebody trusted by the administration …. including OMB [Office of Management and Budget], National Space Council, National Security Council," Bridenstine told Irene Klotz, space editor for Aviation Week, Aerospace Daily & Defense Report's parent publication. "I think I would not be the right person for that in a new administration." "There is a political agreement that America needs to do big things in space exploration, that we need to lead the world ... There have been lessons learned from the past, and I think Congress is in a good position to make sure that we have sustainable programs going forward," he said in one of the tweeted snippets. And in another one, he stressed that "there are a lot of people that can do great work as the NASA administrator." This Bacterium Survived on The Outside of The Space Station For a Whole Damn Year Link: https://www.sciencealert.com/this-bacterium-survived-on-the-outside-of-the-space-station-for-a-year A year in space is no walk in the park. Just ask Scott Kelly, the American astronaut who spent a year on the International Space Station (ISS) in 2015. His long-term stay in space changed his DNA, telomeres, and gut microbiome, he lost bone density, and he still had sore feet three months later. So, it's quite a feat that a species of bacterium first found in a can of meat, Deinococcus radiodurans, was still alive and kicking after a year spent living on a specially designed platform outside the pressurised module of the ISS. Researchers have been investigating these mighty microbes for a while; back in 2015, an international team set up the Tanpopo mission on the outside of the Japanese Experimental Module Kibo, to put hardy bacterial species to the test. Now, D. radiodurans has passed with flying colours. This isn't the longest time D. radiodurans has been kept in these conditions – back in August we wrote about a sample of the bacterium being left up there for three whole years. But the team weren't trying for a world record, instead they were trying to uncover what makes D. radiodurans just so good at surviving in these extreme conditions. So, after a year of radiation, freezing and boiling temperatures, and no gravity, the researchers got the spacefaring bacteria back down to Earth, rehydrated both a control that had spent the year on Earth and the Low Earth Orbit (LEO) sample, and compared their results. The survival rate was a lot lower for the LEO bacteria compared to the control version, but the bacteria that did survive seemed to be doing okay, even if they had turned a little different to their Earth-bound brethren.

Jim Bridenstine was nominated by President Donald Trump, confirmed by the U.S. Senate, and sworn in as NASA’s 13th administrator on April 23, 2018. Bridenstine was elected in 2012 to represent Oklahoma’s First Congressional District. In Congress, he served on the Armed Services Committee and the Science, Space and Technology Committee. Bridenstine’s career in federal service began in the U.S. Navy, flying the E-2C Hawkeye off the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier. He flew combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan and accrued most of his 1,900 flight hours and 333 carrier-arrested landings. In today's episode, we break down NASA's next moon landing, heading to Mars, and how curiosity is one of leaders greatest tools. 

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.09.29.319350v1?rss=1 Authors: Goldenkoff, E. R., McGregor, H. R., Mergos, J., Bridenstine, J., Brown, M. J., Vesia, M. Abstract: Reversed visual feedback during unimanual training increases transfer of skills to the opposite untrained hand and modulates plasticity in motor areas of the brain. However, it is unclear if unimanual training with reversed visual feedback also affects somatosensory areas. Here we manipulated visual input during unimanual training using left-right optical reversing spectacles and tested whether unimanual training with reversed vision modulates somatosensory cortical excitability to facilitate motor performance. Thirty participants practiced a unimanual ball-rotation task using the right hand with either left-right reversed vision (incongruent visual and somatosensory feedback) or direct vision (congruent feedback) of the moving hand. We estimated cortical excitability in primary somatosensory cortex (S1) before and after unimanual training by measuring somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs). This was done by electrically stimulating the median nerve in the wrist while participants rested, and recording potentials over both hemispheres using electroencephalography. Performance of the ball-rotation task improved for both the right (trained) and left (untrained) hand after training across both direct and reversed vision conditions. Participants with direct vision of the right hand during training showed SEPs amplitudes increased bilaterally. In contrast, participants in the reversed visual condition showed attenuated SEPs following training. The results suggest that cortical suppression of S1 activity supports skilled motor performance after unimanual training with reversed vision, presumably by sensory gating of afferent signals from the movement. This finding provides insight into the mechanisms by which visual input interacts with the sensorimotor system and induces neuroplastic changes in S1 to support skilled motor performance.

Extinction Rebellion is a global environmental movement that started in the UK in 2018. They use nonviolent, and extremely theatrical civil disobedience to minimize the risk of human extinction and ecological collapse. Carmen and Niko are from the Los Angeles cell of the XR movement. Carmen is a creative type. Niko is a literal rocket scientist. We had a good talk.   

See who "Hunk with Mike Bridenstine" decided to dress up as for Halloween this year. 

Earlier this year, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine demoted one of the spaceflight community's most influential members. Bill Gerstenmaier had served as NASA's associate administrator for Human Exploration and Operations since 2005. However, after ongoing delays with the Space Launch System rocket and the risk of not returning to the moon by 2024, Bridenstine decided a change was needed. Eric Berger is Senior Space Editor at Ars Technica and has been closely following this incident. He told Federal News Network's Eric White what led up to Gerstenmaier's removal, and what it means. Hear more on Federal Drive with Tom Temin.

Comedian Nate Craig ("Maniac" & "F Is For Family" on Netflix) stops by to be funny and handsome. He is the King of the 4th of July. He and Brido talk about magic mushrooms. They tell old Chicago comedy stories. Nate tells Bill Burr stories. Brido tries to get Nate to scream about politics. Just two old pals being hunks for an hour.     

Jimmy Barrett and Shara Fryer take you through the stories that matter on the morning of 08/21/2019, including: With new plans to send astronauts back to the moon, NASA announced that its center in Huntsville, Alabama will lead a lunar landing program instead of Houston. The new lunar program is called the Artemis Program, named after the goddess of the moon in Greek mythology. After the Artemis Program sends more astronauts to the moon by 2024, NASA hopes to use the moon as a stepping-stone for future missions to Mars. On Friday, August 16, Jim Bridenstine, the Administrator of NASA, made an announcement regarding the lunar lander for the Artemis Program. At the press conference in Huntsville, he told reporters that the Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama, rather than the Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, would lead the development of the human landing system for the lander. Bridenstine noted that Texas would be leading a project of its own as part of the Artemis Program. “It’s also true that the Johnson Space Center is leading the Gateway Program,” he stated. “The Gateway Program is that space station in orbit around the moon that is, think of it as a command module in orbit for fifteen years—a reusable command module. Unhappy with recent polls from the network showing the incumbent would lose the 2020 election to the top Democratic contenders, Trump trashed Fox News. He even made a vague 2020 debate threat saying, “I’m the one that calls the shots”, a suggestion some pundits see as a veiled attempt to warn the network they may be left out in the cold during the presidential election season. After immigration, these may be the 2 biggest issues that will define the 2020 election – the economy and guns. Trump, who has made jobs and the economy the centerpiece of his presidency, is facing growing fears that the economy could head into a recession next year amid a trade war and sluggish growth in China that threatens to set back the global economy. Trump also faces a decision about how far he wants to go on gun control after two mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio, reinvigorated efforts in Congress to move forward with legislation. Profanity — once considered a major no-no among those seeking public office — is no longer an earth-shattering political snafu. And according to new research, this year could be on track to see members of Congress swearing up a storm more than ever before. In analysis conducted exclusively for ITK, GovPredict, a government relations software company, found that the frequency of lawmakers using words that might make one’s grandmother blush has increased steadily since 2014.

This week: Spacewar, new Mars rover wheels to the rescue, and part two of Jim Bridenstine's comments about NASA's immediate future and the Moon. All here on Cool Space News!

Over the last two months, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine has repeatedly said the agency's ambitious new Artemis plan for sending humans to the Moon in 2024 will not require raiding other areas of its budget, such as its broad array of science programs, technology research, or aeronautics work. The reason, he said, is simple. The surest way to torpedo support for a program inside the agency is to take funding from someone else to pay for the new plan, and the surest way to lose support in Congress is to take work away from various field centers around the country. "We can't cannibalize one part of the agency to feed another part of the agency," Bridenstine told Ars in April, which reflects comments he has made many times. "We can't cut the Science Mission Directorate to feed human exploration. We can't cannibalize the International Space Station to feed the Moon mission. So if we go in those directions, which have all been tried in the past, it never works politically. We can't do the same thing again and be upset that it didn't work." --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/space-news/support

Baron Vaughn is the host of "The New Negroes" on Comedy Central. He's a fantastic stand-up comedian, a better actor than most comedians, and just a great, brilliant dude. Brido and Baron discuss Baron's favorite thing, stand-up comedy, as well as theater and all kinds of other things. Baron is really interesting and funny. You'll really like this one.  

A top NASA executive hired in April to guide strategy for returning astronauts to the moon by 2024 has resigned, the space agency said on Thursday, the culmination of internal strife and dwindling congressional support for the lunar initiative. Mark Sirangelo, named six weeks ago as special assistant to NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine, left the agency as NASA abandoned a reorganization plan due to a chilly reception on Capitol Hill, Bridenstine said in a statement. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/space-news/support

On Monday, May 13, NASA contacted the media on short notice late in the afternoon saying a teleconference was being scheduled for the early evening. Scheduling a teleconference in the evening is not something NASA normally does. Whatever the substance of the call, it must be important. As it turns out the call with media was to outline a budget amendment for the Fiscal Year 2020 to provide additional funds to the Trump administration newly mandated plan for NASA to land U.S. astronauts on the moon in 2024 instead of 2028. The call with the details would in of itself be important, but at the end of the teleconference, after answering questions from the media, NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine added a little something that would put the call into the NASA history books. Bridenstine announced that NASA had selected the name Artemis for the human return to the moon program. In Greek mythology, Artemis was the twin sister of Apollo and the name of NASA’s famed 60’s moon program which saw humans land on the moon for the first time in 1969. Now 50 years later, the Artemis Program will be an international effort, though led by the US, that plans to create the infrastructure for a permanent moon base at the south pole. Listen in.

Gary, Lyn and Dee discuss politics and current events.   We start with a letter from a listener, re: DaVita.  We talk about Scott Pruitt leaving the EPA.  We’re replacing Pruitt with Wheeler, probably no better for the environment.  Wheeler may be less personally corrupt.  Speaking of the environment, the NASA head that we all feared, has changed his mind on climate change.  In a spot of good news, Bridenstine believes that climate change is real and that man is responsible for it.  We discuss California and car regulations.  In an interesting turn of events, retiring justice Kennedy’s son is employed by Deutsche Bank.  Deutsche Bank is responsible for a lot of business loans for a certain orange person.  We review the many ways that Japanese gun laws are different than US gun laws.  We discuss the AMA’s recent decision to get involved with gun legislation lobbying.  Why did several Republican Members of Congress spend July 4th in Moscow?  The Senate Intelligence Committee has concluded that Russia meddled in the 2016 election to favor Trump.  Australia previously eliminated tax credits of about $737 (Australian) per year for parents who refused to vaccinate their children.  They are now fining parents an additional $28/2 wks.  So, they are nearly doubling the fines.  In another Good News story, we cover a retired elementary school principal who paints maps for children in various places.  (Most notably on playgrounds.) #DaVita #EPA #NASA #Kennedy #GunLaws #RsInMoscow #SenIntel #Vaxxers  #PaintMaps Like listening to Peak Reality Check?  Would you like to donate to keep it going?  Check out our Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/DeirdreL The post Peak Reality Check, July 6, 2018 appeared first on Studio 809 Radio.

NASA is talking to several international companies about forming a consortium that would take over operation of the International Space Station and run it as a commercial space lab, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said in an interview. The White House touched off a heated discussion about the future of the orbiting laboratory earlier this year when it said it planned to end direct government funding of the station by 2025, while working on a transition plan to turn the station over to the private sector.

Comedian Mike Bridenstine is on the couch this week talking about tv shows Jake isn't watching (spoiler alert: one has both thrones and a game) the nickname Mike doesnt know he has, and their pro wrestling fandom connection before going off on an awful tanget about the misuse of words. He talks about his small town Iowa roots and growing up the son of two teachers as well as being a funny/bad kid, the sort of interests and comedy that caught his attention in his youth. They share thier mutual expierience of being directed towards fine art by being good kid artists who knew they werent that great. He also talks about being an outsider until making his way to Chicago and finding comradery in the comedy scene alongside talents like TJ Miller, Kumail Nanjiani and Pete Holmes. He also talks about recording his debut standup album "The Hungry Wolf Hunt's Best" at The Mill, a venue his grandfather, aunt and uncle played as a blueglass family band when he was a kid and why it was important to him. Also Mike has a lot of hostility towards the artist, Donatello. "The Hungry Wolf Hunts Best" is available now on itunes and ASTRecords.com
