Did you know Disney almost turned Spaceship Earth into a golden roller coaster? Join Morgan and Jake on Neverland Navigation Radio as they take a deep dive into "Project Gemini," the canceled early-2000s overhaul that would have radically changed the front half of Epcot.In this episode, we explore the wild $500 million plans to transform Future World into "Discovery Land". We're talking a massive "Time Racers" coaster gutting Spaceship Earth , a Little Mermaid ride in the Living Seas , a suspended rainforest coaster at The Land pavilion , and a brand-new Junior Autopia right in front of Test Track!Why did this massive project get scrapped right before its planned 2006 opening? We break down the turbulent Michael Eisner era , the financial disaster of Disney's California Adventure , and what few pieces of Project Gemini actually survived to become part of the Epcot we know today (like Soarin'!). Plus, we compare these abandoned plans to Epcot's most recent "World Discovery, Celebration, and Nature" transformation.Planning a Disney trip? Morgan is a free-to-you travel agent!

Nasa had accomplished spaceflight with Project Mercury but the gap to Apollo was still huge. How do you dock two spacecraft in flight and how do crews live in a tiny spacecraft for lunar length flights. These are just a couple of the questions that NASA needed to answer. Gemini was just the project to resolve all of these issues. It was a proving ground, for learning, testing and practicing the skills needed for lunar missions. Gemini wasn't the first program to accomplish spaceflight, and it didn't include the most well known achievements, but it was a formidable project in its own right. Let's check it out.

Explore the complex narrative behind Trump's controversial pardons, as filmmaker Michael Premo discusses capturing the diverse faces of political extremism in 'Homegrown'.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to https://LauraFlanders.org/donate Thank you for your continued support!Full Episode Description: Just hours after he took office, Donald Trump issued pardons for over 1,500 people convicted of crimes related to the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. One of those pardoned was one of the subjects of a gripping documentary: Homegrown, from Storyline Media. Alongside two other members of the extremist group, the Proud Boys, filmmaker Michael Premo followed convicted felon, Christopher Quaglin, at home, on the road, and up the steps of the Capitol that day. In this conversation with Flanders, recorded just prior to Trump's inauguration, Premo describes how the film came to be and what he found, including the surprising diversity within the Right-wing groups he followed. How do political ideas turn to political violence? What is the path forward? Join us for a timely conversation and, as always, Laura's commentary.“I think what we're going to see is an escalation of the potential for violence . . . Project 2025 is a great example of the sort of broader consensus among the conservative movement around what to do once they regained power . . . People feel increasingly emboldened in a way that I think is somewhat similar to 2016, but there's a different sense of urgency.” - Michael PremoGuests: Michael Premo, Journalist & Filmmaker; Director & Producer, Homegrown Watch the episode cut airing on PBS stations across the country at our YouTube channelSubscribe to episode notes via PatreonMusic In the Middle: ‘Call Sender remix' of “Lost In the Woods” by Project Gemini from their forthcoming Colours & Light courtesy of Mr. Bongo Records and thanks to Nurture Music.

Reaching the moon is arguably humanity's greatest accomplishment. When Kennedy promised we would reach the moon by the end of the decade, it sounded like a big commitment considering we had only just got a man into orbit some 3 days earlier. NASA used programs Mercury and Gemini to build towards the Apollo Program. The promise would be fulfilled in 1969 by the trio of Michael Collins (we got ya here Mike), Neil Armstrong, and Buzz Aldrin. Neil's footsteps were propelled to the moon off of the effort of each and every ground crew member that made the dream a reality. Join us we get Historically High on Apollo 11.

Could a clone ever truly understand who they are? Journey with us as we tackle the mind-bending complexities of "Gemini Man" and unravel the layers of this action-packed film. We start with a dose of humor, engaging in some playful banter about personal interests, from Dan's unexpected opinion on trains to Tony's quest for the perfect climate. Our light-hearted chatter even leads us to hilariously debunk the Goldilocks story, touching on quirky habits and cultural practices that add a unique twist to our conversation.As we go deeper, we meticulously dissect the plot of "Gemini Man" and the moral dilemmas it presents. You'll hear a thorough critique of Henry's assassination mission on a Belgian bullet train and the bizarre intersections of his professional and personal life. We leave no stone unturned as we scrutinize the black-and-white moral framework, the mysterious Project Gemini, and the perplexing decisions made by the shadowy organization behind it all. Our discussion brings to light the confusion and questions that arise from the protagonist's journey and the film's portrayal of secretive operations and cloning.Finally, we examine the technical aspects of the film, including the use of CGI and high frame rates, while also critiquing the emotional depth of Will Smith's character. From the intense action scenes to the unexpected father-son dynamics, we offer a humorous analysis that questions the movie's logic and coherence. So, tune in for critical insights, humorous observations, and engaging commentary that promises to keep you entertained from start to finish.Written lovingly with AIBe our friend!Dan: @shakybaconTony: @tonydczechAnd follow the podcast on IG: @hatewatchingDAT

fWotD Episode 2388: Alan Shepard.Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of the featured Wikipedia article every day.The featured article for Saturday, 18 November 2023 is Alan Shepard.Alan Bartlett Shepard Jr. (November 18, 1923 – July 21, 1998) was an American astronaut, naval aviator, test pilot, and businessman. In 1961, he became the second person and the first American to travel into space and, in 1971, he became the fifth and oldest person to walk on the Moon, at age 47.A graduate of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Shepard saw action with the surface navy during World War II. He became a naval aviator in 1947, and a test pilot in 1950. He was selected as one of the original NASA Mercury Seven astronauts in 1959, and in May 1961 he made the first crewed Project Mercury flight, Mercury-Redstone 3, in a spacecraft he named Freedom 7. His craft entered space, but was not capable of achieving orbit. He became the second person, and the first American, to travel into space. In the final stages of Project Mercury, Shepard was scheduled to pilot the Mercury-Atlas 10 (MA-10), which was planned as a three-day mission. He named Mercury Spacecraft 15B Freedom 7 II in honor of his first spacecraft, but the mission was canceled.Shepard was designated as the commander of the first crewed Project Gemini mission, but was grounded in October 1963 due to Ménière's disease, an inner-ear ailment that caused episodes of extreme dizziness and nausea. This was surgically corrected in 1968, and in 1971, Shepard commanded the Apollo 14 mission, piloting the Apollo Lunar Module Antares. He was the only one of the Mercury Seven astronauts to walk on the Moon. During the mission, he hit two golf balls on the lunar surface.Shepard was Chief of the Astronaut Office from November 1963 to August 1969 (the approximate period of his grounding), and from June 1971 until April 30, 1974. On August 25, 1971, he was promoted to rear admiral, the first astronaut to reach that rank. He retired from the United States Navy and NASA on July 31, 1974.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:29 UTC on Saturday, 18 November 2023.For the full current version of the article, see Alan Shepard on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Raveena Standard.

In this episode NASA and Project Gemini really stretch their legs in an attempt to set the record for the longest human space flight. Reaching the goal of 8 days will mean proving that humans can live and work in space long enough to get to the Moon and back. All that NASA needed was a good plan, a little bit of luck... and a working fuel cell. Tune in to see how THAT worked out. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
This time on Terranauts we are back to talking about Project Gemini. With the accolades from Ed White's stunning spacewalk still ringing in their ears, the Project Gemini team needed to go back to work to continue their mission of getting NASA ready for the Apollo program and it's date with destiny on the surface of the Moon. By the time Gemini IV landed less than 4 and half years remained for NASA to meet President Kennedy's deadline. And there were a lot of things NASA did not yet know how to do. Hosted on Acast.

This week, we wrap up Project Gemini with the final four Gemini missions and mention how those final missions answered all of the remaining questions about space travel to the moon and skills that would be needed for lunar exploration. But the Gemini missions couldn't provide information about the physical composition of the surface of the moon and to know if the surface could support a human presence, let alone a landing craft, NASA needed to send probes to the moon which turned out to be just as difficult and problematic as that sounds.The Space Race series introduction is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: · The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast· Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts· Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/

This week we take a look at NASA astronaut class 3 and then briefly overview the other 20 astronaut classes NASA has selected since then, but the meat of the episode is the nearly disasterous Gemini 8 misison that a clear thinking and quick acting Neil Armstrong brought back from the brink and the disaster that killed the Gemini 9 main crew and ultimatly put Buzz Aldrin on the Apollo 11 misison, making him the second man to walk on the moon.The Space Race series introduction is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: · The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast· Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts· Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/
On this week's episode, we see Mercury 7 Astronaut Gordo Cooper's career come to an end so we eulogize him while talking about the final 3 Gemini missions of 1965, the most active year to date for NASA manned space missions. Additionally, we talk about a very important aspect of military culture, unit patches. Starting with Gemini 5, the members of every crewed NASA mission has designed a patch to wear while in space and to commemorate the mission, and after the Gemini 5 crew made theirs, patches were retroactivly designed for Gemini 3 and 4 as well. I have posted the patches of Geminis 3-7 on the website.The Space Race series introduction is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: · The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast· Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts· Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/
This week we being to see the US space program come into its own and really begin surpassing its Soviet rival. With the Gemini 3 mission, the US proves that it can manually maneuver a capsule in space and with Gemini 4, it shows that like Soviet cosmonauts, US astronauts can also spacewalk - and the US spacewalk was twice as long as the Soviet's.The Space Race series introduction is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: · The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast· Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts· Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/
After the Mercury 7 were selected, an unofficial project sought to test 13 women pilots to see if they pass the same tests. The Mercury 13 - or FLATs (Fist Lady Astronauts Trainees) - all passed the Phase I tests but the project was cancelled before most of them could go any further. Because they had no test pilot experence (a career field only open to men in the 1950s and 1960s), none of them were astually considered to become astronauts despite impressive resumes and good test results.As NASA prepared to move from Project Mercury to Project Gemini, the Soviet Space Program look for ways to stay ahead in the space race (at least in terms of propaganda). They took a huge gamble, but successfully flew the frist multi-crew mission (in stylish track suits and not pressurized space suits) and they also managed the first space walk, though the most dangerous part of that mission may have been after they landed back on Earth.The Space Race series introduction is Lift Off by kennysvoice.As always, a very special thanks to Mountain Up Cap Company for its continued help to spread the word about the podcast on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/MountainUpCapCompany Climb to Glory!For more information about the podcast visit: · The GoA website: https://www.ghostsofarlingtonpodcast.com · Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghostsofarlingtonpodcast· Twitter: https://twitter.com/ArlingtonGhosts· Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ghostsofarlington/

Hello all! Welcome to Episode 7 of Project Gemini. This is the final episode of Season 1. In this episode, we dive into the future of gaming in terms of portability and mobility. Yes, we're going to talk about streaming games, the specs on the Valve Steam Deck, and the upcoming Nintendo Switch OLED edition. This has been a fun and amazing season. It was really eye-opening for me to learn the nuances of podcasting and help me understand where I can improve. I aim to come back with Season 2 and see where Project Gemini takes me. Hope you enjoy the show!
In this special episode of Project Gemini, I go through the recently released lawsuit filed by the Department of Fair Employment and Housing for the State of California against Blizzard, Inc. Activision Blizzard, Inc., and Activision Publishing, Inc. For the majority of the episode, I share excerpts from the lawsuit exactly as it was written by the attorneys for the State of California. I also share Activison Blizzard's rebuttal against the lawsuit. Listener discretion is advised. This episode is not labeled explicit, but there are explicit details in the lawsuit that may not be comfortable for all listeners. Such includes deviant behaviors such as sexual harassment and a tragic inclusion of suicide. This case, filed as 21STCV26571, may very well become one of the most important cases in the promotion of civil rights for women and people of color in the video game industry.
In Episode 6 of Project Gemini, I make a big mistake with my production rig used for podcasting and nearly destroy it all. Later, we dive into tech that we take for granted, which may become a staple segment for future episodes. For now, welcome to The Tech We Take for Granted - Part I. Hope you enjoy the show! If you have any topics you would like me to discuss or tech questions you would like answered, feel free to message me through anchor.fm to be featured on the podcast, or write to me at shaysmoothspeaks@gmail.com.
In episode 5 of Project Gemini, we are talking about freedom from the perspective of Ben Franklin, Windows 11 and some of the greatest games that celebrate player freedom, such as the Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind and Mass Effect, as we get ready to celebrate this upcoming July 4th weekend. Also, I have some news to share regarding the podcast frequency due to some changes in my workload.
In Episode 4 of Project Gemini, we are going to talk about telework and why it is such an important technology for businesses to pursue with eligible positions. Then, we dive into my experience growing up with single-player and multiplayer games, and how I see them today. I end the episode with a review of Insomniac Games' recently released Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart and give a shout out to a certain developer! FYI - It's my first Platinum on PlayStation.
In episode 3 of Project Gemini, we discuss the price-to-performance ratios of the RTX 3070 Ti and RTX 3080 Ti graphics cards from Nvidia. Then, we push into highlights and announcements from video game publishers made during E3 and Summer Game Fest of 2021. This is a longer than usual episode, but we have a lot of great details about upcoming games for what's left of 2021 and going into 2022.
In episode 2 of Project Gemini, we look into recent tech news from Google, Microsoft, and Tik Tok. We have updates from from Nvidia in regards to Nvidia Reflex and PC Gamer's upcoming PC Gaming Show that will be held digitally this Saturday, June 13th as part of E3. Later, we talk about a recent bear incident in Cadbury, California that leaves a 17-year old girl rushing to save her dogs. Then, we move into discussing upscale titans AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution vs Nvidia DLSS.
In Episode 1 of Project Gemini, I will be discussing the GPU and console shortage, scalpers, and who to follow on Twitter to make sure you can get yours at MSRP. I move into a less formal discussion on E3 and Summer Game Fest which will be starting June 10 at 11 am PT / 2 pm ET. I hope you enjoy the episode!

Welcome to Project Gemini! This podcast will be focusing on the two great industries of technology and video games. I am your host, Shalin, and I am just a regular guy figuring out his life. I am excited to provide news, updates, and thoughts on current events in the realms of tech and gaming. I may stray off topic from time to time to focus on other exciting events that are happening as well, but my focus will always come back to those industry giants. I am grateful for you to listen in and I hope that the upcoming episodes will be enjoyable to you. You can find me on Twitter, @realShaySmooth.
