SHOW 10-29-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1920 BOLIVAR IN CARACAS THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT CARACAS... FIRST HOUR 9-915 Global Flashpoints: Ceasefires, Nuclear Claims, and the Legality of Venezuela Deployment Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland Colonel Jeff McCausland assesses global conflicts, noting the Gaza ceasefire remains fragile as neither Israel nor Hamas is willing to compromise meaningfully. Russia remains defiant, having recently tested a claimed nuclear-powered missile, with Putin insisting Ukraine must surrender to achieve peace. McCausland criticizes the US deployment of a carrier battle group near Venezuela as "overkill," resembling nineteenth-century gunboat diplomacy intended to intimidate the Maduro regime. He questions the legality of kinetic action against alleged drug smugglers without Congressional approval. 915-930 VGlobal Flashpoints: Ceasefires, Nuclear Claims, and the Legality of Venezuela Deployment Guest: Colonel Jeff McCausland Colonel Jeff McCausland assesses global conflicts, noting the Gaza ceasefire remains fragile as neither Israel nor Hamas is willing to compromise meaningfully.

CBC subsequently blurred the symbols in the published footage. This incident reflects Canada's historical difficulty in addressing its harboring of former Nazi criminals, following the earlier scandal of Waffen SS member Ivan Hunka receiving an ovation in Parliament. Golinkin notes that while Nazi elements exist within Ukrainian forces, Russia exploits this fact for propaganda purposes to delegitimize Ukraine's struggle. 1045-1100 VCanadian Media Airs Interview with Neo-Nazi-Associated Ukrainian Fighter Guest: Lev Golinkin Lev Golinkin discusses the scandal involving the Canadian Broadcasting Company, which interviewed a man associated with a neo-Nazi-led Ukrainian brigade who bore swastika tattoos.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Global Commodities and UK Political Turmoil: Copper Prices Soar and Starmer's Tax U-Turn Guest: Simon Constable Simon Constable reports that copper prices are soaring to $5.18, up 20 percent, due to insufficient supply to meet demand from electric vehicles and artificial intelligence applications. In the United Kingdom, he notes Labour leader Keir Starmer reversed his tax pledge amidst poor productivity forecasts and failing reforms. Constable details the collapse of a high-profile China espionage case, possibly because UK espionage laws remain outdated from before World War I and China was not formally designated a hostile state at the time. He also highlights the troubling advice given by police to Israeli football fans to avoid attending a match due to safety concerns. 1215-1230 Global Commodities and UK Political Turmoil: Copper Prices Soar and Starmer's Tax U-Turn Guest: Simon Constable Simon Constable reports that copper prices are soaring to $5.18, up 20 percent, due to insufficient supply to meet demand from electric vehicles and artificial intelligence applications.

Har vi åkt till Mars än? följer med den svenska rymdelegationen till Japan i samband med Expo 2025 i Osaka. Vi möter iSpace, företaget som har som mål att bygga en hel månstad – Moon Valley, till 2040. De har redan hunnit med två missioner till månen, även om de inte landade helt som planerat. Men iSpace ser misslyckanden som steg på vägen, och de har redan fler missioner planerade de kommande åren. Deras landare har bland annat burit med sig det svenskakonstverket Moonhouse till månen. Vi pratar med Yu Okajima, Executive Vice President på iSpace, om deras resa hittills, samarbetet med bland andra NASA och SpaceX, och visionen om att skapa en permanent månekonomi byggd på resurser som redan finns på plats. Vi diskuterar också tidigare och kommande svenska samarbeten.Vi fick också med oss röster från världsutställningen i Osaka, där Sverige deltog med en stark rymddelegation:Carsten Grönblad, Business SwedenAnnalena Johansson, GaislerOlle Norberg, Institutet för rymdfysikMarkus Borsand, Beyond GravityFredrik Gisle, SSC – Swedish Space CorporationThomas Engstedt, NanovacElla Carlsson, RymdstyrelsenTillsammans berättar de om affärer, forskning, teknik och visioner – och om varför samarbetet mellan Sverige och Japan i rymden blir allt viktigare, från instrumentering på satelliter till planerna på att byggainfrastrukturen på månen.Har vi åkt till Mars än? är en populärvetenskaplig podd om rymden, framtiden och människans plats i universum. Med nyfikenhet och humor tar den sig an stora frågor: Hur långt har vi kommit i rymdforskningen? Vad krävs för att åka till Mars? Och varför är vi så fascinerade av den röda planeten? Programledarna intervjuar forskare, ingenjörer och astronauter, och förklarar allt från livets uppkomst till raketmotorer – begripligt och engagerande för alla som någon gång tittat upp mot himlen och undrat.Serien berättar inte bara om rymden – den använder rymden för att förstå vad det innebär att vara människa.Förutom ämnen som mörk materia, galaxer, ljusets hastighet, satelliter och odling av mat i rymden så har vi i tidigare avsnitt följt astronauten Marcus Wandts resa mot rymden och hans förberedelser inför uppdraget till ISS – från träning i Sverige och runtom i världen till hur det känns att stå på startplattan. Har vi åkt till Mars än? finns också som en juniorserie för mellanstadiet där barnens egna frågor står i centrum: Hur bygger man en bas på Mars? Vad döljer sig i ett svart hål? Och vad är solen gjord av? Serien har 20 avsnitt med tillhörande lärarhandledningar som gör vetenskapen tillgänglig och rolig.Har vi åkt till Mars än? görs på Beppo av Rundfunk Media i samarbete med Saab.Hosted by Ausha.

В този епизод Никола и Петко ни транспортират в дълбокия вакуум на най-новите събития от света на космическите технологии и амбиции: • iSpace с втори опит за кацане на Луната - японската компания iSpace не се отказва лесно. След неуспешния си първи опит миналата година, този път апаратът Resilience е на път да влезе в историята. Ще стане ли Япония третата държава, постигнала меко кацане на Луната чрез частен играч? • Starship – Полет №9 - най-мощната ракета, създавана някога, излетя и... отново се разпадна. Въпреки че мисията не завърши безпроблемно, полетът даде ценни данни за бъдещите амбиции на SpaceX. Какво работи, какво не, и защо този „неуспех“ всъщност е крачка напред? • Китай стартира мисия до древен астероид - Tianwen-2 вече е на път към астероид, за който се смята, че е „жив фосил“ от началото на Слънчевата система. Какво цели да научи мисията и защо тя е значима не само за Китай, но и за цялата планетарна наука? • EnduroSat с нова инжекция от €43 млн - българската компания EnduroSat привлече сериозно финансиране с амбицията да масово произвежда по-големи и по-умни сателити. Какво означава това за родната космическа индустрия и можем ли да очакваме още по-смели проекти?

以下のようなトピックについて話をしました。 01. Nintendo Switch 2の開封と初期設定の全容 タイトル：Nintendo Switch 2の開封レビュー Nintendo Switch 2が届いたので、開封レビュー まず、パッケージを開封すると、本体とJoy-Conの大きさに驚かされます。Switch 1と比べるとかなり大型化しています。同梱物には、ULTRA HIGH SPEED HDMIケーブル、専用ACアダプター、USB-Cケーブル、Joy-Conグリップ、丸みを帯びたドックなどが入っています。 本体の電源を入れると、言語設定や利用規約への同意、インターネット接続設定などを行います。続いて、Joy-Conの取り付け方やプレイスタイルなどのチュートリアルが表示されます。 移行完了後、Switch 2の画面が表示され、ダウンロードしたソフトを遊ぶことができます。『マリオカート ワールド』を少しプレイしてみましたが、画面の大きさとグラフィック性能の高さ、ロード時間の短さなどに感動しました。 Switch 2は、大画面と高性能を実現した魅力的なゲーム機です。今後発売されるソフトにも期待が高まります。 02. Amazon Aurora DSQLが一般提供を開始 タイトル：Amazon Aurora DSQL が一般提供開始 AWS re:Invent 2024 で発表された Amazon Aurora DSQL が、プレビューから一般提供となりました。Aurora DSQL は事実上無制限にスケールするサーバーレスな分散 SQL データベースで、3つの AZ にまたがる Active/Active の単一クラスタを提供し、マルチリージョン構成も可能です。 現在、北米ではマルチリージョンクラスターが対応しており、アジアパシフィックとヨーロッパではシングルリージョンクラスターのみが対応しています。日本では東京と大阪の2箇所のリージョンで提供されています。 料金は分散処理ユニット (DPU) とストレージを中心に請求され、データ転送料金も発生します。バックアップとリストアには AWS Backup を使用します。SLA はマルチリージョンで99.999%以上、シングルリージョンで99.99%以上の月間稼働率が設定されています。 Aurora DSQL は PostgreSQL 互換で使いやすいですが、楽観的同時実行制御を採用しているため、アプリケーション開発時は注意が必要です。ワークショップなどで学習し、適切に活用していくことが重要です。 03. 言語モデルの推論能力に複雑さの限界点 最近の大規模言語モデル（LRM）は、回答を提示する前に詳細な思考プロセスを生成する。LRMは推論ベンチマークで性能向上を示すが、その基本的な能力、スケーリング特性、限界については十分に理解されていない。現在の評価は、確立された数学やコーディングのベンチマークに焦点を当て、最終的な回答の正確性を重視している。しかし、このような評価方法ではデータの汚染が起こりやすく、推論の構造や質に関する洞察が得られない。 本研究では、論理構造を一定に保ちながら組成の複雑さを正確に操作できる制御可能なパズル環境を用いて、これらのギャップを体系的に調査した。この設定により、最終的な回答だけでなく、内部の推論過程も分析することができ、LRMがどのように「考える」かについての洞察が得られる。様々なパズルでの広範な実験を通じて、最先端のLRMは特定の複雑さを超えると完全に正確性が崩壊することが示された。さらに、LRMは直感に反するスケーリング限界を示す。つまり、問題の複雑さに応じて推論の努力が増加するが、ある点を超えると、十分なトークン予算があるにもかかわらず、推論の努力が減少する。 LRMと標準的なLLMを同等の推論計算量で比較することで、(1)標準モデルがLRMを上回る低複雑度タスク、(2)LRMの追加思考が有利に働く中複雑度タスク、(3)両モデルが完全に崩壊する高複雑度タスクの3つの性能レジームを特定した。LRMは正確な計算に限界があり、明示的なアルゴリズムを使用せず、パズル間で一貫性のない推論を行うことがわかった。また、探索されたソリューションのパターンを調べ、モデルの計算行動を分析することで、推論の痕跡をより深く調査し、その長所、限界を明らかにし、最終的には真の推論能力について重要な疑問を提起した。 04. ispace社の月面着陸ミッション2が失敗 株式会社ispaceは、民間企業として日本初・アジア初の月面着陸を目指していましたが、2025年6月6日のミッション2において、月面着陸の成功を確認できず、ミッションの終了を判断しました。 東京の管制室からコマンドを送信し、RESILIENCEランダーは月周回軌道を離脱、高度約100kmから約20kmまで惰性降下後、主エンジンを噴射し減速を開始しましたが、その後テレメトリが消失し、着陸を示すデータの受信には至りませんでした。 現時点では、レーザーレンジファインダーの有効な計測値の取得が遅れ、十分な減速ができていなかったことから、ランダーは月面にハードランディングした可能性が高いと推測されています。 今後、取得されたテレメトリの詳細な解析を実施し、原因究明に努めるとともに、関係者への報告と信頼の回復に努めていくとのことです。 ispaceは「人類の生活圏を宇宙に広げ、持続性のある世界へ」をビジョンに掲げ、月面資源開発に取り組んでいる宇宙スタートアップ企業です。HAKUTO-Rプログラムでは、独自のランダーとローバーを開発し、月面着陸と月面探査の2回のミッションを行う予定でしたが、ミッション2では月面着陸の成功には至りませんでした。 05. 静電風圧式受粉機が果樹栽培を効率化 静岡県農林技術研究所、県果樹研究センター、ミツワが共同開発した静電風圧式受粉機が、2025年に限定販売、2026年に正式販売される。梨やキウイフルーツなどの果樹栽培に欠かせない人工授粉の効率化・省力化を目的としており、輸入花粉の供給不安定化や価格高騰の解決策となる。 この受粉機は、電極で花粉を帯電させることで雌しべへの付着率を高める仕組み。実証試験では、花粉使用量と作業時間を約80％削減できた。操作した生産者からは軽くて作業が楽だと好評で、発売が待ち望まれている。 2025年の限定販売分は既に販売先が決まっており、現在ミツワは2026年の購入希望者を募集中だ。静電風圧式受粉機の登場により、果樹栽培の省力化と安定生産が期待される。 本ラジオはあくまで個人の見解であり現実のいかなる団体を代表するものではありません ご理解頂ますようよろしくおねがいします

A private spacecraft carrying several science experiments has successfully landed on the moon.一个携带多个科学实验的私人航天器成功降落在月球上。The lander, called Blue Ghost, was built by the American company Firefly Aerospace. The spacecraft touched down March 2 on the part of the moon's near side called Mare Crisium. The near side of the moon is the side facing Earth.兰德（称为蓝色幽灵）是由美国公司Firefly Aerospace建造的。 该航天器于3月2日在月球附近的一侧称为Mare Crisium。 月球的近侧是面向地球的一侧。Officials at Firefly's Mission Control center near Austin, Texas, confirmed the successful landing. The chief engineer for the Blue Ghost mission, Will Coogan, announced to excited workers: “We're on the moon.”德克萨斯州奥斯汀附近的Firefly Mission Control Center的官员证实了成功的登陆。 蓝色幽灵任务的首席工程师威尔·库根（Will Coogan）向激动的工人宣布：“我们在月球上。”The officials said the spacecraft landed in the right position and was operating normally. The successful touchdown makes Firefly the first private company to land a spacecraft on the moon without crashing or having a major problem.官员们说，航天器降落在正确的位置，并且正常运作。 成功的达阵使Firefly成为第一家在没有崩溃或遇到重大问题的情况下将航天器登陆的私人公司。Only five countries can claim successful moon landings: Russia, the United States, China, India and Japan.只有五个国家可以声称成功的月球登陆：俄罗斯，美国，中国，印度和日本。Blue Ghost is named after a rare kind of firefly found in the U.S. The four-legged lander is two meters tall and 3.5 meters wide. It launched in mid-January from Florida, carrying 10 experiments for the American space agency NASA.蓝色幽灵以在美国发现的一种罕见的萤火虫命名，四足着陆器高两米，宽3.5米。 它于1月中旬从佛罗里达州推出，为美国航空航天局NASA进行了10次实验。In a statement, NASA said the 10 experiments are designed to operate on the surface of the moon for one lunar day, which is about 14 Earth days. The Associated Press reported that NASA paid $101 million for the spacecraft and $44 million for the equipment it carried.NASA在一份声明中说，这10个实验旨在在月球表面运行一个月球日，大约是14天。 美联社报道说，美国宇航局为航天器支付了1.01亿美元，并为其携带的设备支付了4,400万美元。It was the third mission under NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program. The program aims to turn over the country's major space missions to private companies to reduce costs. Several other companies are part of the program.这是NASA商业月球有效载荷服务（CLPS）计划的第三项任务。 该计划旨在将该国的主要太空任务移交给私人公司，以降低成本。 其他几家公司也是该计划的一部分。Another lander, called Athena, is set to attempt a moon landing on March 6. That four-meter-tall spacecraft was built and operated by Houston-based Intuitive Machines. It will land on another part of the moon, about 160 kilometers from the lunar south pole.另一个名为Athena的着陆器将在3月6日尝试月球登陆。该四米高的航天器是由休斯顿的直觉机器建造和操作的。 它将降落在月球的另一部分，距离月南极约160公里。A third lander from private Japanese company ispace will attempt a moon landing in about three months. The lander, called Resilience, shared its rocket ride with Blue Ghost. But it took a longer path to the moon. The company is also attempting to land on the moon for the second time. Its first lander crashed in 2023.来自日本私人公司ISPACE的第三个着陆器将在大约三个月内尝试月球登陆。 登陆者称为弹性，与蓝色幽灵分享了它的火箭骑行。 但是它花了更长的道路通往月球。 该公司还试图第二次登陆月球。 它的第一批着陆器在2023年坠毁。NASA has said it aims to have two private landers launch to the moon each year, realizing some missions will fail. The space agency's top science officer is Nicky Fox. She told the AP the latest launches “open up a whole new way for us to get more science to space and to the moon."NASA表示，其目标是每年将两个私人着陆人推向月球，意识到某些任务将失败。 航天局的高级科学官是尼克·福克斯（Nicky Fox）。 她告诉美联社，最新发射“为我们开辟了一种全新的方式，使我们可以使更多的科学登上太空和月球。”In the past, NASA's successful moon landings involving astronauts cost billions of dollars. But Firefly chief Jason Kim said the private companies now building and launching spacecraft have a limited budget and the spacecraft operate robotically.过去，NASA成功的月球登陆涉及宇航员的登月耗资数十亿美元。 但是萤火虫负责人杰森·金（Jason Kim）表示，现在建造和推出航天器的私人公司的预算有限，航天器的运作方式是机器人的。Kim said everything went just as planned with Blue Ghost's landing. “We got some moon dust on our boots," he added.金说，一切都按照蓝色幽灵的着陆计划进行。 他补充说：“我们的靴子上有一些月光灰尘。”
