Transcript

Some cool stories this week, including our very own Taylor Barcroft’s admission he is a Swiftie, in the Taylor Swift sense of the word. Who knew?  Besides sharing his Swiftie passion he updates us on the latest in Apple Tech, waveforms of the word ‘water’ in many languages onboard Europa Clipperincluding what’s coming up soon, like Siri 2 this summer!   If you’ve ever wondered what Hitler sounds like if he spoke native English, wonder no more, we play you one of the AI clips that has gone viral.  This clip did inspire a political conversation on authoritarianism and US politics, which is rare for us. 

The Europa Clipper mission is coming up soon and we share with you some of the magic of this space adventure, as it is exploring a fellow water world in our very own solar system.  There is a cool plaque about water on board, and a world class poem about water, which is quite delightful!

Wow, 104 sats in one launch, a new ‘world’ record! And just what are all these sats doing? Well, 88 of them are from Planet Labs, whose first major mission is to image all the Earth’s land mass every single day! Also in space news, the JPL Mars team have narrowed down the 2020 rover landing sites from 30 potential locations to three, as the best candidates for discovering any form of microbial life on the Red Planet. This is exciting for us as one of the final locations is one being promulgated by a Dr. Future Show regular, Dr. Bruce Damer, who was presenting to the JPL team this past weekend. 

Lots of other news this week we think is worthy of your attention, including an opportunity for you to discover a new planet!  Enjoy..
