Podcasts about New Shepard

6 Women took flight on Blue Origin's New Shepard rocket to the edge of space and a powder keg of hype and celebrity blew up the internet. Something about this all-female mission triggered people from all sides, with many jumping on the trend or not even realizing this billionare space race has been underway for a while (or even what the Karman line is). This episode lays out some basic facts about the mission and dedicates coverage of the two women with (IMO) the most powerful stories of the NS-31 crew, Aisha Bowe and Amanda Nguyen. These are chaotic times, with people chasing the algorithm - but that doesn't mean we can't share the powerful stories underneath the hype & celebrity of it all. The Space Conundrum is in full effect! So let's dig in to try and understand WHY and hear Aisha & Amanda's stories in their own voices.

In this episode of This Week in Space, hosts Rod Pyle and Tariq Malik welcome Dr. Phil Metzger from the University of Central Florida to discuss the dangerous realities of rocket plumes when landing spacecraft on the Moon and Mars. Before diving into the main topic, the hosts talk about Jared Isaacman's NASA administrator confirmation hearing, Katy Perry's upcoming Blue Origin spaceflight, and a newly discovered comet. Headlines: Jared Isaacman's NASA Administrator Confirmation Hearing - The billionaire Shift4 CEO and astronaut faced intense questioning about his independence from Elon Musk, with senators repeatedly asking if Musk was present during his meeting with Trump. Isaacman confirmed he'll continue with Artemis missions and the ISS through 2030. Katy Perry's Space Flight - The pop star will join the world's first all-female crew aboard Blue Origin's New Shepard, scheduled for April 14. The crew includes Gayle King and other accomplished women, though the flight has received criticism for being extravagant during tough economic times. New Comet Discovered - Comet C/2025 F2 Swan was discovered on March 29 by a Ukrainian skywatcher and is currently visible to the naked eye in dark skies, though it will soon only be visible from the Southern Hemisphere. Main Topic - Rocket Plume Effects with Dr. Phil Metzger: Rocket Plume Dangers - Dr. Metzger explains how rocket exhaust can propel lunar soil at speeds up to 3 km/second (above lunar escape velocity), potentially damaging equipment far from landing sites and even ejecting material entirely off the Moon. Apollo 12 Evidence - The Surveyor 3 spacecraft, visited by Apollo 12 astronauts, showed significant sandblasting damage from the lunar module landing 160 meters away, with paint surfaces scoured and peppered with holes from high-velocity particles. SpaceX Starship Launch Analysis - Dr. Metzger studied the first Starship test launch and found concrete chunks traveling at 90 meters per second, with sand carried 6 miles away in raindrops formed within a rotating cloud of hot exhaust. Landing Pad Solutions - Various approaches for building lunar landing pads include microwave sintering of lunar soil, bringing polymers from Earth as binders, creating rock beds, and baking pavers in ovens—all requiring robotic construction methods. Future of Space Industry - Dr. Metzger advocates moving computing and energy production to space to reduce Earth's industrial burden. He estimates it could take 20-30 years to reach a tipping point where space industry becomes self-sustaining, potentially accelerated by billionaire investment or government support. Lunar Mining Potential - Dr. Metzger discusses surface mining approaches versus underground operations, noting the Moon's surface has been bombarded for billions of years with bedrock lying 10 kilometers deep. Science Budget Concerns - The hosts and Dr. Metzger express concerns about reported cuts to NASA's science budget, particularly affecting Earth science programs, with Dr. Metzger warning this could harm America's leadership in scientific research.

The old saying, practice makes perfect, applies to the Moon, too.

Végleg elköszöntünk a Skype-tól, ami 22 év után megszűnik idén májusban. Megvitattuk a legújabb technológiai fejlesztéseket, köztük az autók tetejére szerelhető drónokat, amelyek forradalmasíthatják a parkolást és a közlekedést. Emellett szó esett a mamutszőrös egerekről és a molylepkék szaglását utánzó drónokról is.Kriptovaluták és Trump: Játékszer vagy befektetés?Női űrutazás: Amikor a főnök barátnője ingyen repülBálnák és vas: Hogyan trágyázzák az óceánt?Kecsap és majonéz: A gasztronómia csúcsaTörténelmi pillanatnak lehettünk tanúi: a Microsoft bejelentette, hogy májustól kiveszi a 60 perc ingyenes Skype-hívást az M365 csomagból, ezzel megkezdve a Skype korszakának lezárását. A 2003-ban indult szolgáltatás, amely sokunk számára az első videóhívási lehetőséget jelentette, 22 év után lassan a múlté lesz. Nosztalgiával emlékeztünk vissza, hogy milyen early adapterek voltunk, amikor az ICQ mellett ezt is elkezdtük használni. A Microsoft egyébként más termékeket is felvásárolt az évek során, mint például a LinkedIn-t, ami mostanra inkább egy "udvarias Facebook"-ká vált, ahol a karrier építés mellett egyre több a marketing tartalom.Korábban már beszéltünk a mentődrónokról, és most kiderült, hogy Kínában a BYD kifejlesztett egy autótetőre szerelhető drónt. Míg a DJI hasonló megoldása, a Dock-3 horribilis áron, 21.059 dollárba kerül, addig a kínai olcsósított változat már 2.200 dollár körüli összegért kínál hasonló funkciókat. A drón legfeljebb 25 km/h sebességig tud fel- és leszállni, 50 km/h-ig nem marad le az autótól, és körülbelül 2 kilométerre tud eltávolodni. Használható 360 fokos parkolássegítőként, vagy akár arra is, hogy előre küldjük parkolóhelyet foglalni. Átgondoltuk a későbbi lehetőségeket, amikor egyszerre több drón is versengene ugyanazért a parkolóhelyért - és megküzdenének a parkolóhelyekért.A Colossal Biosciences, amely a szibériai mamut visszaállításán dolgozik 2028-ra, most egy látványos eredményt mutatott be: sikerült mamutszőrt növeszteniük egereken. A tudósok szerint ez mind színre, mind állagra megfelel az eredeti mamutszőrnek. A cég értékelése nemrég 10,2 milliárd dollárra emelkedett, miután újabb 200 millió dolláros befektetést kaptak. Szerintünk ezek a gyapjas-egerek kiváló háziállatok lehetnének, és, hogy talán már csak pár keresztezés szükséges a mamut kialakításához.Megvitattuk a Blue Origin következő űrutazását, amely az első, kizárólag női utasokkal induló magán űrrepülés lesz. A résztvevők között lesz a népszerű énekesnő, 2I/I (két I per I, Katie Perry), az amerikai újságíró Gale King, két tudós (Aisha Bow és Amanda Nguyen), valamint Lauren Sanchez, Jeff Bezos menyasszonya és egy filmproducer. Rájöttünk, hogy míg a többiek valószínűleg fizetnek az útért, addig "a főnök csaja ingyen utazik". Ez lesz egyébként a New Shepard 31. útja az űr határára.Show notes: https://zartosztaly.hu/222-erzeki-oromok(00:02:44) Crypto keményedés(00:06:43) Gondolati ugrás(00:07:10) Skype utolsó felvonás(00:14:09) Állás copilot(00:21:08) Épületes hallucináció(00:26:15) Boyler eladó(00:26:34) SpaceX a RUDak királya(00:28:48) Kék Űrhajósnők(00:34:04) Parkolási drón(00:40:40) Ma jó néz!(00:45:09) Moly-drón(00:51:46) Gyapjas egerek(00:56:37) A bálnakaki, nincs is mélyen!

On November 22, 2024, Henry Wolfond, embarked on a historic mission to space aboard Jeff Bezos' New Shepard rocket, reaching an impressive altitude of 107 kilometers above Earth. The mission, which he described as a journey of peace, marked a personal milestone for Wolfond, who had long dreamed of becoming an astronaut. As the chairman and CEO of Bayshore Capital in Toronto, and the chair of the Confronting Antisemitism Committee of the UJA Federation of Greater Toronto, Wolfond's accomplishments extend far beyond space. Upon returning to Earth, he was visibly moved, expressing his awe with the words, “We're all one people, we're all on this very fragile small planet. It's amazing.” His passion for space exploration began in his youth, where he was captivated by every Gemini and Apollo mission, as well as the 1969 moon landing. As a child, he was also enthralled by the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, which he watched repeatedly, imagining a future where he would journey to the moon aboard a Pan Am rocket. Though he never became a fighter pilot due to vision limitations, Wolfond's childhood love for space continued through his admiration for Star Trek and its iconic Captain Kirk and becoming a pilot at 17 years old. During his 12 minutes in space, Henry carried with him pictures of family members who had suffered in the Holocaust. Similarly, he carried pictures of his children and grandchildren.

One scientist is conducting the first research tended suborbital flight on board Blue Origin's New Shepard capsule. Plus, could there be evidence of life on two icy moons in our solar system?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmxcvbb0clM Ralph Wilkins hosts.  Damien Phillips, John Wildridge and Dustin Ruoff produce. From  Aug 5, 2022. Blue Origin rocket developments seem to have been in development for decades. They've only just got their sub-orbital New Shepard rocket launching and, even now, they aren't launching that often. Their orbital New Glenn rocket keeps getting delayed and might even be obsolete to SpaceX rockets if it ever delivers.   With Elon Musk's SpaceX leading the way in commercial spaceflight and Branson's Virgin Galactic offering an alternative, has Jeff Bezos merely spent a lot of money on Blue Origin that he won't be able to recover?   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Earlier this month, the International Monetary Fund put out its weakest medium-term projection for global economic growth since 1990. This had one listener wondering: How accurate are the IMF's predictions? We'll get into it and answer more of your questions, like why the U.S. Postal Service still delivers six days a week and what is the carbon footprint of space travel. Plus, we'll explain why the Federal Reserve is losing billions every week. Here’s everything we talked about today: “The IMF’s 5-year growth forecast is its weakest since 1990” from Quartz “IMF Forecasts: Process, Quality, and Country Perspectives” from the International Monetary Fund “Economic Forecasting Is Really Difficult. Just Ask the IMF” from Bloomberg “The U.S. Postal Service and Six-Day Delivery: History, Issues, and Current Legislation” from the Congressional Research Service “Six-days-a-week mail delivery saved; Biden signs Postal bill” from AP News “Formerly a cash cow, the Fed is now losing ‘about $2 billion a week’” from Marketplace “What if the Federal Reserve books losses because of its quantitative easing?” from the Brookings Institution “The pollution caused by rocket launches” from the BBC “How the billionaire space race could be one giant leap for pollution” from The Guardian “Fact check: Jeff Bezos’ New Shepard rocket launch didn’t emit carbon” from USA Today “Make Me Smart” has been nominated for a Webby Award!
