First Graphene commercial manager Neil Armstrong talked with Proactive about the company's first production purchase order from Australian manufacturer Pacific Urethanes for PureGRAPH® graphene, which will be used in polyurethane systems targeting fire-retardant applications in the mining industry. Armstrong said the order represents an important first commercial step following around two years of development work by the customer, including extensive testing against the standards required to bring the technology to market. He explained that graphene can contribute to fire-retardant performance by forming a physical barrier that helps protect the underlying material. When combined with traditional non-halogenated fire-retardant additives, Armstrong said PureGRAPH® can help formulations achieve required fire performance at lower additive loadings. That is particularly relevant in mining applications, where polyurethane materials can be exposed to high levels of wear and tear. Armstrong also discussed the wider commercial potential for the technology. He said the mining order provides First Graphene with a commercial-scale case study that could help build confidence in PureGRAPH® and support adoption across additional mining applications.

Did you know that the first meal ever eaten on the moon was Holy Communion? Like me, some of you may remember living through this, while others have only read about it in history books. The year is 1969 and the date is July 20th. Americans across the country gathered around their TVs waiting to see what 10 years earlier President John F. Kennedy said the United States would be the first to do. Put a man on the moon. And on that July day, Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong landed on the moon in their spider-like Lunar Module. It would still be some time before Neil Armstrong would utter those now famous words, “one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Before those words were spoken, there was a period of time when Aldrin and Armstrong would have to wait. Buzz Aldrin came prepared to do something worshipful in the waiting. Blessed and commissioned by his church, he had brought the elements of Holy Communion with him. And in those moments before Neil stepped out of that shuttle onto the moon, Buzz sat in the quietness of space and poured that juice into a little chalice. And there on the moon, on July 20th, 1969, he took the bread and he ate it, and he drank the cup! This Sunday we will do the same together!

In 1969, history was made when Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first humans to walk on the moon. Or did they? In this episode I discuss one of the biggest conspiracy theories of them all, the moon landing. I break down the major evidence about the moon landing hoax, and explain the truth behind it all.  Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theconspiratorspodcast YouTube: https://youtube.com/@theconspiratorspodcast?si=i9M8jKMaV_JOS45l Notes: https://www.rmg.co.uk/stories/space-astronomy/moon-landing-conspiracy-theories-debunked https://books.google.com/books?id=N1Gcfdj81T4C&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false https://www.ebsco.com/research-starters/communication-and-mass-media/moon-landing-conspiracy-theories?utm_source=chatgpt.com https://www.iop.org/explore-physics/moon/how-do-we-know-we-went-to-the-moon https://content.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1860871_1860876_1860992,00.html https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/search/research-news/2128/ https://airandspace.si.edu/stories/editorial/why-do-people-persist-denying-moon-landings https://www.bbc.com/reel/video/p07h2yx9/watch https://www.manchester.ac.uk/about/news/moon-landing-conspiracy-theories/ https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/how-fly-me-to-the-moon-pokes-fun-at-moon-landing-conspiracy-theories-180984686/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us Fan MailWhat if skill isn't something an athlete has, but something a moment gives them?This episode pulls together three conversations that each answer a piece of that question, more directly than any single guest could get to on their own.What skill actually is: Duarte Araújo defines skill as potential, not possession, using an example from Neil Armstrong's first steps on the moon to show how the same person moves completely differently depending on their circumstancesThe mechanism underneath it: Alan Dunton breaks down metastability, the concept explaining why staying adaptable between states, rather than locked into one ideal pattern, is what makes skill possible in the first placeWhat it looks like in practice: Garrett Baker, skill acquisition specialist with the New York Mets, explains why he trains pitchers with more variability before working toward stability, the reverse of what most coaching assumesDefinition, mechanism, application. Three different sports, three different guests, one throughline.This one's for coaches and practitioners who've felt the tension between what "good technique" is supposed to look like and what actually holds up under real competitive pressure.Guests referenced in this episode:Duarte Araújo — full conversation in Ep 113, Why Athletes Don't "Acquire" Skill, They Adapt ItAlan Dunton — full conversation in Ep 112, What Is Metastability, Making Theory PracticalGarrett Baker, skill acquisition specialist, New York Mets — full conversation in Ep 109, Breaking Free from Perfect MechanicsJoin us this November in Chandler, Arizona for the Skill Acquisition Retreat.

Le 20 juillet 1969, près de 600 millions de téléspectateurs assistent à un événement que beaucoup considèrent encore aujourd'hui comme l'un des plus grands exploits de l'histoire humaine : Neil Armstrong pose le pied sur la Lune et prononce sa célèbre phrase : « Un petit pas pour l'homme, un bond de géant pour l'humanité ». Pendant quelques années, la Lune devient le symbole de la capacité de l'Homme à repousser les limites du possible. Pourtant, après 1972, les missions lunaires s'arrêtent et notre satellite semble retomber dans l'oubli. Mais depuis quelques années, la Lune est redevenue un objectif stratégique pour les grandes puissances. États-Unis, Chine, Russie, Europe mais aussi entreprises privées, investissent à nouveau dans l'exploration spatiale. Pourquoi ce retour d'intérêt ? S'agit-il d'un simple rêve de conquête, d'un enjeu scientifique, économique ou géopolitique ? Alors que les missions Artemis préparent le retour des astronautes sur le sol lunaire, une question se pose : devons-nous retourner sur la Lune ? Une question posée aux candidats lors des Grands Oraux de l'ENM. Pour répondre à cette question, je reçois Stéphane Zambon.

Leitura Bíblica Do Dia: 1 CORÍNTIOS 3:3-9 Plano De Leitura Anual: SALMO 119:1–88; 1 CORÍNTIOS 7:20-40  Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira:  Em 29 de julho de 1955, os EUA anunciaram sua intenção de colocar satélites no espaço. Logo após, a União Soviética declarou seus planos de fazer o mesmo. Teve início a corrida espacial! Os soviéticos lançaram o primeiro satélite (Sputnik) e colocaram Yuri Gagarin como o primeiro homem que orbitou no espaço. A corrida continuou e em 20 de julho de 1969, Neil Armstrong deu o “salto gigantesco para a humanidade” na superfície da Lua, extraoficialmente encerrando a competição. Iniciou-se um tempo de colaboração, que levou à criação da Estação Espacial Internacional. Às vezes, a concorrência pode ser saudável, levando-nos a fazer mais, o que talvez não fizéssemos de outra forma. Em outros momentos, a competição é destrutiva. Esse era um problema na igreja de Corinto, pois diferentes grupos se apegavam a vários líderes como seus faróis de esperança. Paulo buscou abordar esse problema quando escreveu: “Não importa quem planta ou quem rega, mas sim Deus, que faz crescer” (1 CORÍNTIOS 3:7), e concluiu: “Pois nós somos colaboradores” (v. 9). Colaboradores, não concorrentes. E não apenas uns com os outros, mas com o próprio Deus! Por meio de Sua capacitação e orientação, podemos servir juntos, como colegas de trabalho, promovendo a mensagem de Jesus, para Sua honra e não a nossa. Por: BILL CROWDER

Vor 57 Jahren hat Neil Armstrong als erster Mensch den Mond betreten. Jetzt wollen die Amerikaner zurück, womöglich schon 2028 - Hauptsache schneller als China. Ist dieses Ziel realistisch oder greift der Präsident wieder nach den Sternen?In dieser Folge sprechen die ehemaligen US-Korrespondentinnen Claudia Sarre und Kerstin Klein über die Zukunft der US-Raumfahrt. Kerstin war mehrfach am Kennedy Space Center in Florida und erzählt, wie es ist, live dabei zu sein, wenn eine Rakete zum Mond starten soll. Sie meint, dass die Mission für Donald Trump eine reine Prestigefrage ist. Diesmal soll nicht nur eine Flagge gehisst werden – das Ziel sei, "permanent auf dem Mond zu bleiben und den Mond nie wieder aufzugeben". Ein Grund dafür: vermutete Rohstoffe wie Seltene Erden. Und so will Trump auf jeden Fall vor China einen Fuß auf den Mond setzen.Außerdem sprechen die beiden über den boomenden, aber umstrittenen Raumfahrttourismus. "Das Ganze ist auch wahnsinnig schlecht für die Umwelt", sagt Kerstin Klein - aufhalten lasse sich der Trend trotzdem kaum: "Es wird wahrscheinlich immer genug superreiche Menschen geben, die nicht wissen, wohin sonst mit ihrem Geld."Wie fühlt es sich an, auf einem anderen Planeten unterwegs zu sein? ARD-Korrespondentin Sarah Schmidt aus dem Studio Washington hat es ausprobiert. Sie reiste in den Westen des Landes zu einer simulierten Mars Station. In der Wüste Utahs ist das Klima tatsächlich ähnlich wie auf dem Mars – heiße Tage und kalte Nächte. Hier betreibt die Mars Society eine kleine "Raumstation", in der eine Gruppe Studierender eine Woche lang unter den Bedingungen einer echten Mission lebt. Sarah war einen Tag lang dabei – im schweren Raumanzug, mit Helm.Warum der ganze Aufwand? Für Tech-Milliardär Elon Musk ist der Mars mehr als ein Forschungsobjekt: "Er glaubt irgendwann wird es einen Doomsday geben. Indem man andere Planeten besiedelt, minimiert man das Risiko, dass wir auf einen Schlag ausgerottet werden", erklärt Sarah.Nach diesem Ausflug ins All geht's zurück auf die Erde: Nächste Woche melden sich Jiffer Bourguignon und Ingo Zamperoni aus ihrer Sommerpause mit einer neuen Folge.Ihr habt Fragen?

Los años sesenta fueron una década que lo cambió todo: el mundo estuvo al borde de la guerra nuclear durante la Crisis de los Misiles en Cuba, el Muro de Berlín dividió familias y naciones, el Che Guevara murió en Bolivia intentando exportar la revolución, y Neil Armstrong pisó la Luna ante seiscientos millones de espectadores. En América Latina, las dictaduras y las guerrillas disputaron el destino del continente mientras García Márquez publicaba Cien años de soledad. En este episodio de Interesante Historia recorremos los eventos, personajes y movimientos que hicieron de los sesenta una ruptura irreversible con el mundo anterior.Conviértete en un supporter de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/interesante-historia--5241488/support.

Aujourd'hui à Voyage dans l'espace c'est la reprise après quelques jours "off". Quoi de mieux pour une reprise que d'évoquer pour vous, chers auditeurs, les moments les plus importants, mémorables, significatifs de l'exploration spatiale ? Entre le premier pas de Neil Armstrong, le lancement du JWST, la destruction en vol de Challenger ou le survol de Pluton, il y a de quoi contenter toutes les mémoires... La société Loto-Québec, l'organisme gouvernemental qui gère les loteries, organise ce mardi, 18 août, à Québec, un feu d'artifice sous le thème Cosmos. Claude a donc été invité à venir répondre aux questions du public, à répondre à n'importe quelle question concernant l'exploration de l'espace. Le feu d'artifice aura lieu au centre du fleuve Saint-Laurent, à partir d'une barge. Il sera visible des deux rives du fleuve à partir de 22 h. Auparavant, Loto-Québec organise un «pique-nique», une foire, sur la rive de Québec, près du Musée de la civilisation. Claude y sera à partir de 18h30. Espérons qu'il fera beau et qu'il y aura beaucoup de monde...

Johnny Mac shares five good news stories: 19-year-old Blake in England was scammed selling his MacBook on eBay but, after police were unhelpful, he and his mom went to the delivery address (a restaurant) and got the laptop returned, though he advises others not to do the same. In downtown San Jose, the long-unsolved “San Jose Semaphore” puzzle atop Adobe's headquarters was decoded by Brian as pixel color values that form a rose from Botticelli's The Birth of Venus; Adobe teased a new puzzle with a two-year Creative Cloud prize and referenced earlier puzzles encoding The Crying of Lot 49 and Neil Armstrong's moon quote. In Germany, Andre set a Guinness record popping 60 balloons in 30 seconds using a toilet plunger. A thrift-store buyer restored a Broyhill Brasilia dresser set and sold it for $9,000.

Episode Description:Mike Massimino's path to space was not a straight line. It was a long series of obstacles, failures, second attempts, and decisions not to quit.In this From the Archive conversation, James talks with Mike about his memoir Spaceman, his two shuttle missions to service the Hubble Space Telescope, his career at NASA, his work at Columbia, and the deeper lessons behind becoming an astronaut.Mike explains that spaceflight may look impossibly complex from the outside, but NASA makes it possible through preparation, checklists, training, repetition, and teamwork. In space, even the hardest work has structure. Back on Earth, ordinary life can sometimes feel harder because there is no checklist for getting through the day.James and Mike talk about the view of Earth from orbit and why Mike's first reaction after a spacewalk was: “The Earth is a planet.” From space, Earth no longer looks like a safe, permanent background. It looks like a fragile home traveling through a dangerous universe.The conversation then moves back to Mike's childhood. He watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon and saw the New York Mets win the World Series in 1969, but he did not believe becoming an astronaut was realistic. Astronauts seemed like superheroes. It felt like something other people did.Still, the dream stayed with him.Mike describes failing his PhD qualifying exam at MIT, being told he might not be suited for the program, and deciding to try again anyway. He talks about applying to NASA four times, being rejected, failing the medical exam because of his eyesight, and then doing the seemingly impossible: training his eyes to pass the standard without surgery.For James, this becomes the central lesson. Most people would have accepted medical disqualification as proof that the dream was over. Mike saw it as another obstacle.The episode also explores what “the right stuff” really means. Mike pushes back against the old image of the astronaut as a lone, fearless test pilot. The real right stuff, he says, is whether someone can be trusted with your life. Can they work on a team? Will they help when you need help? Will they ask for help when they need it?Near the end, James identifies another pattern in Mike's life: he may not have been the best at any single thing, but he became unusually good at a combination of things. Astronaut. Engineer. Spacewalker. Teacher. Communicator. Author. Public face for science. That combination made him uniquely valuable.The result is a conversation about space, but also about persistence, meaning, teamwork, and the improbable path from childhood dream to real achievement.Editorial Note:This is a From the Archive episode. References to NASA programs, the Space Launch System, Orion, Commercial Crew, SpaceX, Boeing, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, the shuttle program, and Mike's recent book activity reflect the original recording period.What You'll Learn:Why astronauts rely so heavily on checklists, procedures, training, and team support.How the view of Earth from space changed Mike Massimino's relationship to the planet.Why Mike believes life likely exists somewhere else in the universe.What the Hubble Deep Field revealed about galaxies hiding in a seemingly empty patch of sky.Why childhood dreams can matter even when they seem impossible.How Mike decided which dreams were worth paying the price to pursue.Why failing at MIT did not end his path to NASA.How he handled repeated NASA rejections.Why failing the astronaut eye exam became one of the defining obstacles of his life.How Mike trained his eyes to pass NASA's vision requirements.Why the most successful people are not people who never fail.What “the right stuff” means beyond bravery, intelligence, or physical ability.Why teamwork, trust, and character matter so much in spaceflight.How imposter syndrome can change when you understand your role on a team.Why the odds only become zero when you give up.How private space companies could expand access to space.Timestamped Chapters:[04:53] NASA Checklists vs. Normal LifeMike explains why complex work in space can feel simpler than ordinary life when training, procedures, and support are in place.[07:13] Training for Spacewalks UnderwaterJames asks about NASA's massive training pool, full-scale mockups, and how closely underwater training matches a real spacewalk.[08:33] The Overwhelming View of EarthMike says the work itself is trained into you, but the view of the planet from space is impossible to fully prepare for.[09:16] “The Earth Is a Planet”Mike describes seeing Earth as a fragile home surrounded by the rest of the universe.[11:32] Is There Life Somewhere Else?Mike explains why Hubble's view of billions of galaxies makes it hard for him to believe Earth is the only place with life.[12:27] Why Hubble MattersJames and Mike talk about Hubble's images, the telescope's cultural impact, and why servicing it mattered.[14:03] The Hubble Deep FieldMike explains how Hubble found galaxies in a patch of sky that had seemed empty.[15:33] The Kid Who Wanted to Be an AstronautJames rewinds to Mike's childhood: Neil Armstrong, the 1969 Mets, bad eyesight, fear of heights, and an impossible dream.[18:10] Losing Touch With the DreamMike reflects on how people can talk themselves out of what they really love because the path looks too hard.[18:28] Failing at MITJames compares his own graduate-school failure to Mike's decision to keep going after failing his PhD qualifying exam.[20:43] Which Dreams Are Worth the Cost?Mike explains how he knew acting was interesting but space was something he was willing to suffer for.[23:20] Meaning, Public Service, and the Book's Real ThemesMike says Spaceman became about dreams, persistence, the wonder of space, and the value of doing work that serves something larger.[26:29] Interest Plus MeaningJames identifies the pattern in Mike's decisions: he pursued the work that combined personal interest with deeper purpose.[28:00] Finding the Path When There Is No MapMike explains why he chose to keep pursuing his PhD even though there were other possible routes to NASA.[30:06] Thirty Seconds of RegretMike remembers the advice to give yourself a short period of regret after failure, then move on.[31:19] The People Who Never Let Failure Stop ThemMike says the most successful people he has met are not people who never fail, but people who refuse to be stopped by failure.[35:20] Failing the NASA Eye ExamJames asks about the obstacle that seemed impossible to fix: Mike's eyesight.[36:35] Applying to NASA Four TimesMike describes two early rejections, one interview, a failed medical exam, and the long road toward another chance.[39:10] “How Could I Have Given Up?”Mike explains why he could live with NASA saying no, but not with himself giving up.[40:28] Training His Eyes to See BetterMike finds a doctor, works through vision training, and eventually improves enough to pass the acuity requirement.[41:27] Getting to Space Was Not the EndJames notes that even after becoming an astronaut, Mike faced more setbacks, including the Columbia tragedy and the uncertainty around later Hubble missions.[43:07] Knowing When a Chapter Is OverMike explains why he eventually felt satisfied with his astronaut career and ready for the next phase.[43:48] Imposter Syndrome and TeamworkMike describes feeling like an imposter at MIT and NASA, and how belonging to a team helped him understand what he could contribute.[46:16] Redefining “The Right Stuff”James and Mike discuss why the real astronaut test is not swagger, but trust, character, and whether someone has your back.[49:11] Would You Trust This Person With Your Life?Mike explains the qualities NASA looks for beyond credentials: teamwork, reliability, humility, and character.[54:02] The Fourth Theme: Combinations of SkillJames points out that Mike's power came from combining many abilities: astronaut, engineer, spacewalker, teacher, communicator, and author.[57:26] The Right Person Because He Wouldn't Give UpMike says he may not have been the best spacewalker, but he was the person who would not quit when the Hubble repair became difficult.[01:00:14] The Odds Are Never Zero Until You QuitMike explains that near-impossible is not impossible—and the only way the chance disappears completely is if you give up.[01:01:05] The Future of SpaceflightMike talks about NASA, the International Space Station, Commercial Crew, SpaceX, Boeing, Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, and private citizens in space.Additional Resources:Mike Massimino Official WebsiteMike Massimino BiographySpaceman by Mike MassiminoMike Massimino at Columbia

Sean Donnelly & Dan St. Germain are not only hilarious veteran comics, but are pillars in the U.F.O. community.

This week, Scott and Aaron remember the 1969 moon landing - and the famous "small step for man" quote that accompanied it. The post History Matters: Neil Armstrong’s Speechwriter appeared first on Chapelboro.com.

Send us Fan MailIn S2E38, we start with a creepy Skype story from Ian's time in Korea before getting into Robby sleeping thirteen and a half hours, waking up sore but mentally refreshed, and somehow turning that into a theory about humans tossing and turning for survival. From there, we talk Fortnite mobile players being way too good, self-revives, Ian taking Kai and Asher metal detecting, finding absolutely nothing but nails and earthy “steaks,” and the difference between kids who love getting dirty and kids who want nothing to do with it. We also get into Misawa versus Edwards outdoor life, Robby's increasingly powerful mustache, beard and mustache competitions, Slinky getting stickers stuck in his ear, miniature dachshunds, Neil Armstrong and the moon landing debate, conspiracy rabbit holes, animal control chasing neighborhood goats, whether goats could help Robby defeat the sticker weeds, and why the real problem is keeping them off the vehicles. Support the show

Somehow the World Cup finally got a halftime show... and somehow we still found plenty to complain about.Today's comedy podcast starts with the crew breaking down the most bizarre halftime spectacle imaginable. Madonna appears for what feels like twelve seconds, BTS brings the choreography, Justin Bieber decides the world's biggest sporting event needs an acoustic therapy session, and then Shakira walks out to remind everyone why those hips have never lied. Naturally, we have opinions.From there, things somehow get even weirder.It's Moon Day, which means Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin get the glory while poor Michael Collins gets roasted for being the guy who drove everyone to the moon and wasn't allowed to get out of the car. We imagine the greatest prank NASA never pulled, discuss Bruce Lee, NeverEnding Story, James Gunn, Ozzy Day, and somehow turn historical events into completely unnecessary comedy.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jelly Roll and Bunny XO's divorce, Willie Nelson's latest memoir, Apple Music price hikes, Metallica preparing for The Sphere, Shane Gillis smashing comedy attendance records, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Charlie Sheen family drama, celebrity careers hanging on by a thread, and plenty of entertainment gossip all get thrown into the blender.Along the way we debate whether stadium comedy is actually fun, argue about the best place to watch Nolan movies, wonder if The Rock needs a career reboot, celebrate Carlos Santana's birthday, and somehow end up discussing Michael Collins' intrusive thoughts while orbiting the moon.Basically... another completely normal morning.If you like sarcastic humor, weird news, celebrity gossip, movie debates, random history rabbit holes, and friends making each other laugh for no apparent reason, you've found your people.Thanks for hanging out with us for another comedy podcast filled with questionable opinions, unnecessary arguments, and just enough actual information to keep things interesting.If you laughed even once today, mission accomplished.We'll be back tomorrow with even more chaos.Thanks for making us part of your morning—and thanks for supporting this comedy podcast every single day.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Rizz returns from Lake of the Ozarks with stories that immediately raise questions about the local water quality, why "Doo Doo Cove" sounds exactly like what everyone thinks it does, and whether anyone should trust a body of water that inspires conversations about E. coli before breakfast. Between luxury boats, lake restaurants, cover bands playing everything from Def Leppard to Stone Temple Pilots, and a nighttime cruise that somehow turns into jokes about "Potty Cove," the crew proves once again that no vacation is safe from relentless roasting.Lern brings the emotional roller coaster. After performing with her band during one of the hottest weekends of the summer while sticking to Dry July, she shares stories from seeing Graham Nash live, discovering just how emotional Jason Isbell's music can be, and accidentally turning a simple drive home into a philosophical discussion about love, mortality, and asking Tim one of the most uncomfortable hypothetical questions imaginable. Leave it to this show to pivot from crying in the shower to making fun of old people at concerts in less than thirty seconds.King Scott breaks down his concert at Copper Fire. The review of Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, debating where it ranks among Nolan's best films while also recounting one of the most frustrating movie theater experiences imaginable. Apparently, Nicole Kidman can remind everyone to silence their phones, but that doesn't stop a few audience members from treating a three-hour epic like their personal conference room.Along the way, the gang debates relationship guilt trips after solo vacations, laughs about passive-aggressive texts involving twenty loads of laundry and Beaches, swaps stories from weekend gigs around St. Louis, and somehow finds themselves discussing haunted taverns, giant lake houses, military-themed party boats, and why some people apparently spend millions on yachts that never leave freshwater.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without conversations wandering completely off the rails. What starts as a harmless weekend recap turns into debates about movie etiquette, music that absolutely destroys your emotional stability, bizarre lake myths, and one of the funniest recurring bits of the day surrounding "Caca Cove." Add in the infamous Mountain Dew theft story, plenty of listener interaction, sarcastic commentary, and nonstop riffing, and you've got exactly the kind of chaos listeners expect every morning.Somehow the World Cup finally got a halftime show... and somehow we still found plenty to complain about.It's Moon Day, which means Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin get the glory while poor Michael Collins gets roasted for being the guy who drove everyone to the moon and wasn't allowed to get out of the car. We imagine the greatest prank NASA never pulled, discuss Bruce Lee, NeverEnding Story, James Gunn, Ozzy Day, and somehow turn historical events into completely unnecessary comedy.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, where Jelly Roll and Bunny XO's divorce, Willie Nelson's latest memoir, Apple Music price hikes, Metallica preparing for The Sphere, Shane Gillis smashing comedy attendance records, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, Charlie Sheen family drama, celebrity careers hanging on by a thread, and plenty of entertainment gossip all get thrown into the blender.Along the way we debate whether stadium comedy is actually fun, argue about the best place to watch Nolan movies, wonder if The Rock needs a career reboot, celebrate Carlos Santana's birthday, and somehow end up discussing Michael Collins' intrusive thoughts while orbiting the moon.Would you hand over your dating life to artificial intelligence? Better question... would you trust Rafe Williams with your dating profile? That's the completely reasonable debate the gang accidentally has on today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, where one ridiculous idea somehow spirals into an entire discussion about modern dating, catfishing, AI matchmaking, relationship green flags, restaurant red flags, and why everyone's emotional baggage apparently comes with free shipping.It all starts with Rafe pitching what may be the worst—or greatest—experiment in show history: creating dating app profiles using Rizzuto's photos just to see what kind of chaos happens. Naturally, the room immediately realizes this could destroy friendships, marriages, reputations, and probably a few Terms of Service agreements. The conversation somehow gets even weirder when everyone starts debating whether younger versions of themselves would outperform their current selves on dating apps, complete with AI-generated aging photos and nostalgic stories from the early internet.Then things take a futuristic turn as the crew dives into a new AI-powered matchmaking service that's arranging dates for college students. Instead of endless swiping, artificial intelligence chooses your match, schedules your date, and may eventually give you conversation topics before you even meet. Convenient? Creepy? A little of both? The gang debates whether we're heading toward a future where AI agents date each other before humans ever have to.Of course, it wouldn't be The Rizzuto Show without immediately asking ChatGPT to describe everyone's ideal romantic partner. The results are surprisingly deep, unexpectedly hilarious, and occasionally a little too accurate for comfort. Nothing says "healthy discussion" like being emotionally profiled by a chatbot.Later, the conversation shifts into relationship green flags as the crew breaks down the little traits that instantly make someone more attractive—from confidence and curiosity to financial responsibility, power tools, good posture, and apparently picking things up with your toes.Finally, they tackle one of the biggest personality tests there is: going out to eat together. How someone treats restaurant staff, orders their meal, handles mistakes, tips, uses their phone, or reacts to cold mashed potatoes might reveal everything you need to know before committing to a second date.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Taylor Farms recalls iceberg lettuce sourced in Mexico after it was linked to cyclospora outbreakMan rescued after climbing into portable restroom toilet in Kansas CityMy eye had to be sewn shut after a parasite ate my cornea — the crucial mistake I madeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Pour écouter 5.000 ans d'Histoire en une fois, sans pub et avec les Bonus :https://m.audiomeans.fr/s/S-tavkjvmo Aujourd'hui, coup de projecteur sur le 20 juillet 1969, quand l'humanité pose le pied sur la Lune. Dimanche, 20 juillet 1969. Il est 20h17 GMT, quand une phrase résonne dans les casques du centre spatial de Houston, au Texas. « The eagle has landed », l'aigle s'est posé, l'homme est sur la Lune. Quelques heures plus tard, à 2h56 du matin, heure de Paris, Neil Armstrong descend l'échelle du module lunaire. Une dizaine de marches, un sol de poussière grise et puis, ce pas, cette phrase, devenue mythique. « That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind ». "C'est un petit pas pour un homme, un bond de géant pour l'humanité". L'image est floue, le son grésille, mais la Terre entière regarde. Pour la première fois, un être humain marche sur un sol non terrestre. Au côté d'Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin le rejoint. Michael Collins, lui, reste en orbite, seul, à bord du module de commande. L'expédition Apollo 11 est l'aboutissement de douze années de course à l'espace, de milliards de dollars d'échecs, de rêves et surtout d'audaces. La Lune, aujourd'hui, n'est plus un mystère. Elle est devenue un lieu visité, touché, foulé, un symbole de ce que l'esprit humain, quand il le veut, peut accomplir. Mais ce 20 juillet 1969, ce n'est pas qu'un exploit technologique, c'est un moment presque philosophique. Pour la première fois, les humains vont regarder la Terre depuis l'extérieur, petite, bleue, fragile, sans frontières visibles. Ce soir-là, pour un instant, toute l'humanité a levé la tête, a l'unisson, et elle s'est vue autrement. A demain dans TIME SHOT pour une nouvelle Minute Histoire. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Back on this day in 1969, Neil Armstrong walked on the moon. He was the first ever human to do so.

US Central Command says its latest barrage of strikes against Iran is designed to degrade Tehran's military capacity to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump warns military strikes will intensify if Iran does not cooperate in peace talks, and both sides threaten further escalation to gain control over the key shipping lane.Also: prosecutors in Bolivia investigate reports that Bolivian citizens are being tricked into fighting for Russia in Ukraine. The Australian government announces plans to regulate the growing AI sector. Tensions escalate in Pakistani-administered Kashmir as security forces try to stop protesters marching on the main city of Muzaffarabad to demand more political representation. Border checks between Spain and Gibraltar are permanently lifted, after London and Brussels sign a free movement treaty affecting the British territory. And a pen, that helped save the Apollo 11 mission in July 1969 after Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first men on the moon, has been sold at auction in New York for more than $850,000.

Los años sesenta fueron una década que lo cambió todo: el mundo estuvo al borde de la guerra nuclear durante la Crisis de los Misiles en Cuba, el Muro de Berlín dividió familias y naciones, el Che Guevara murió en Bolivia intentando exportar la revolución, y Neil Armstrong pisó la Luna ante seiscientos millones de espectadores.  En América Latina, las dictaduras y las guerrillas disputaron el destino del continente mientras García Márquez publicaba Cien años de soledad.  En este episodio de Interesante Historia recorremos los eventos, personajes y movimientos que hicieron de los sesenta una ruptura irreversible con el mundo anterior.

El 16 de julio de 1969, la misión Apolo 11 partió hacia la Luna. Mientras el mundo miraba a Neil Armstrong y Buzz Aldrin caminar sobre la superficie lunar, un tercer astronauta, Michael Collins, orbitaba solo a bordo del módulo de comando Columbia. Collins no pisó la Luna. Su nombre rara vez aparece primero. Pero sin él manteniendo el módulo en órbita estable durante más de veintiún horas de espera, Armstrong y Aldrin no habrían tenido adónde regresar. Su fidelidad invisible hizo posible el regreso. De la misma manera, Dios honra la fidelidad que nadie aplaude. El servicio que no aparece en los titulares, la oración que nadie escucha, la obediencia discreta que sostiene lo que otros ven. El reino de Dios avanza sobre una red de fidelidades invisibles que muy pocas personas conocen, pero que Dios ve con total claridad. Si hoy sientes que tu trabajo pasa inadvertido, no lo subestimes. Lo que se construye en lo oculto suele ser lo que sostiene lo que todos admiran. Dios no mide el valor por la visibilidad; lo mide por la fidelidad. La Biblia dice en Lucas 16:10: "El que es fiel en lo muy poco, también en lo más es fiel". (RV1960).

You could say that Peter MacNab is to caving what Neil Armstrong is to the moon. 

El 20 de julio de 1969, Neil Armstrong pronunció las palabras que llevan décadas resonando: “un pequeño paso para el hombre, un gran salto para la humanidad”. Ocho palabras transmitidas desde la Luna a seiscientos millones de personas. Más de medio siglo después, se siguen citando. Las palabras bien pronunciadas en el momento correcto trascienden a quien las dijo. Salomón observó que la muerte y la vida están en poder de la lengua. No es metáfora; es diagnóstico. Las palabras tienen un peso real sobre quienes las reciben, especialmente las que provienen de quienes tienen autoridad en la vida de alguien. Una palabra de aliento en el momento correcto puede cambiar la dirección de una vida. Una palabra destructiva puede marcar a alguien por décadas. Por lo tanto, antes de hablar hoy, pregúntate: ¿edifica lo que voy a decir a quien lo va a recibir? La Biblia dice en Proverbios 18:21: "La muerte y la vida están en poder de la lengua, y el que la ama comerá de sus frutos". (RV1960).

Our guest today is Doug Cooke, an aerospace consultant who spent 38 years at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston and NASA Headquarters in Washington, D.C.  STEM-Talk host and IHMC founder Dr. Ken Ford, a former Associate Director of NASA's Ames Research Center and Director of NASA's Center of Excellence in Information Technology, interviewed Doug just four days after the astronauts of NASA's Artemis II mission splashed down in the Pacific Ocean following a historic 10-day roundtrip from the Earth to the Moon. In today's episode, Ken and Doug discuss the Artemis mission as well as NASA's plans to return humans to the lunar surface by 2028. Doug also shares his concern that China could one day surpass America's leadership role in human spaceflight. During his 38 years at NASA, Doug played critical roles in the Space Shuttle, International Space Station and Human Exploration spaceflight programs. During the last three years of his NASA career, he served as Associate Administrator of the Exploration Systems Mission Directorate, which oversees the development of systems critical to NASA’s plans for human exploration of the Moon and Mars, including the Artemis program. Show notes: [00:04:05] Ken opens our interview with Doug by talking about the Artemis II mission, which is the first crewed mission beyond low earth orbit since Apollo 17 in 1972. Harrison Schmidtt, who was on Apollo 17, was our guest on episode 4. Ken asks Doug for his key takeaways of the Artemis II mission, which set the record for a manned mission from Earth, traveling 252,756 miles into space and breaking Apollo 13's record. [00:06:18] Ken explains that the Artemis missions signal a new age of space exploration as well as the beginning of a new space race between the U.S. and China. NASA aims to land humans on the Moon by 2028 while China expects to land humans on the moon in 2030. Ken has previously stated that he does not have confidence in NASA's current mission architecture to achieve NASA's stated goal of 2028, and asks Doug for his thoughts on the matter. [00:07:28] Ken asks if it is true that Yuri Gagarin, who become the first human to fly into space, is what initially sparked Doug's interest in science and space. [00:08:54] Ken notes that Gagarin's orbit around the earth inspired President Kennedy to vow that the United States would ramp up its space program and become the first nation to land a man on the moon. Ken mentions that he believes the Apollo 11 mission, which landed astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the lunar surface, was one the greatest technological advances in world history. Ken asks Doug for his thoughts on the success of the Apollo program. [00:10:28] Ken mentions that Doug went to college at Texas A&M and majored in aerospace engineering. Kens asks Doug how he got a job at NASA after graduating. [00:12:21] Ken explains that Doug was instrumental in the development of the space shuttle and the International Space Station during his time at NASA. Doug talks about what it was like working on those projects at NASA. [00:15:16] Ken mentions that Doug also had an instrumental role in the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite (LCROSS), and the broader Exploration Technology Program. Ken points out that Doug became head of the exploration technology program in 1990 under then NASA Associate Administrator Mike Griffin, who was our guest on episodes 134 and 189. Ken asks Doug about meeting Mike. [00:16:17] Ken mentions that Mike Griffin and Lisa Porter were our guests on episode 189, where they voiced concerns about NASA's current plans for a return to the moon. Ken goes on to mention that near the end of Doug's career at NASA, he was the head of Exploration Systems Mission Directorate (ESMD), which is responsible for the development of systems critical to NASA's plans for future exploration of the Moon and Mars. Ken asks Doug to talk about his role as head of the directorate and the work he did there. [00:18:55] Ken explains that Doug has written extensively on the issues with the Artemis mission architecture, most notably in a recent article for space news. Before jumping into the article, Ken asks Doug to talk about why it is important and also a national-security concern that we return to the moon before China. [00:21:12] Looping back to Doug's op-ed in Space News, Ken notes that Doug stressed the need for NASA to develop a plan-B for the Artemis mission, with Doug and others noting that without a plan-B, the U.S. risks of losing the space race to the Moon. Doug has also gone on record to say that China has a far simpler, more direct, and more technically conservative plan than NASA. Ken asks Doug to elaborate on this. [00:22:37] Ken asks Doug to talk about the issues he and others have identified with NASA's current proposed landing system. [00:26:14] Ken asks Doug to give a better understanding for the listeners of just how tall the proposed SpaceX lander is, and why that is a potential problem for not only landing on the moon in the proposed locations, but also for the astronauts exiting and entering. [00:28:51] Ken asks Doug to talk about what plan-B for Artemis looks like. [00:30:12] Ken asks Doug about the powerful thrust generation of the SpaceX lander. This raises the concern of regolith blast and generating significant debris fields while landing and thus reducing the scientific value of the region immediately surrounding the landing site. [00:30:59] Ken asks if Doug has any other thoughts on a potential plan-B. [00:33:02] Ken notes that the success of the mission hinges on the least proven element, namely the lander. While other elements of the mission architecture are well established, the hardest and least tested elements are normally the weakest links. Ken asks Doug's thoughts on this position. [00:34:31] Ken asks Doug to talk about the complexity of the Artemis mission architecture and that it is largely driven by the Lander and NASA's requirements.  There was a high interest in re-usability which increased complexity. Neither of the two Landers under development are an optimal design for a lunar lander. [00:35:37] Ken asks Doug about the role of commercial companies sometimes called “new space” in space exploration. [00:37:02] Ken asks Doug if he feels discouraged by the fact that the U.S. has squandered a 60-year head start in space exploration. [00:37:36] Ken explains that China aims to send humans to Mars by 2050, and NASA aims to do the same by 2040, while Elon Musk proposes to send humans to Mars by 2029, which Ken says is a completely untenable notion. Ken notes that statements such as that from Musk vastly understate the difficulty entailed in a Mars mission. Given that Doug was part of the early planning of a Mars mission at NASA, he asks Doug to talk about the challenges that such a mission faces. [00:42:17] Ken and Doug discuss the problem with EDL (Entry Descent and Landing) that Mars uniquely poses. [00:43:09] Ken also brings up the issue of crew health and wellness. By the time they reach Mars, given the extended time spent in a high-radiation, micro-gravity environment, maintaining crew health in transit is critical to mission success. [00:43:47] Ken poses the concern that if it becomes likely that China will reach the moon before the U.S. can return, then NASA or the political leadership may adopt the attitude that we've already been to the moon, and that we should just jump straight to Mars. [00:46:24] Ken asks for Doug's thoughts on NASA's current leadership and workforce. [00:49:01] Ken quizzes Doug about the aims, goals, and mission architecture of Artemis III and IV. [00:51:16] Ken notes that the design of Artemis III might negatively impact the overall mission goal of landing on the Moon by 2028. [00:52:04] Ken shifts to talk more about Artemis IV, elements of which, Ken notes, need much more testing to be ready. [00:52:58] Ken closes our interview noting that Doug will return for another interview on STEM-Talk in 2028 to see if Artemis is on schedule. Ken ends by asking Doug about how he started his hobby of collecting Civil War artifacts after he retired and moved to Gettysburg, as well as his hobby of collecting antique cars. [00:55:17] Ken closes by asking Doug to name the favorite car he has collected. Links: Doug Cooke bio Learn more about IHMC STEM-Talk homepage Ken Ford bio Ken Ford Wikipedia page  

Michael, my dad, and me. Three generations arguing in one room. That's the format today. My dad watched Neil Armstrong walk on the moon live at twenty-two years old. He remembers the Iranian hostage crisis when it was happening, not when it was a movie. That perspective matters when we get into where we are now — the rhetoric coming out of the White House, the ceasefire that may or may not hold, a war nobody has explained the objective of. We talked about the leaders we don't seem to produce anymore. Kennedy to the moon in ten years. Hungary voting out a hard-right prime minister by historic margins. Why most good people won't touch politics now — they'll destroy your entire family before you ever reach the ballot. Then the stuff that piles up every week. California's rail to nowhere. AI versus actual brain tissue running video games. ICE changing tactics. Cancer research funding cut by thirty-one percent. Civil War monuments and what you do with history you don't want to celebrate. And yes, my dad tried to break into the neighbor's house. And pissed himself at the rodeo. We get to that too. Enjoy.
