00:00:57 --> 00:00:58 that's challenging our understanding of

00:00:59 --> 00:01:01 our Celestial neighbor

00:01:01 --> 00:01:02 stay with me Anna as we explore these

00:01:02 --> 00:01:04 fascinating developments in space

00:01:04 --> 00:01:05 science and

00:01:05 --> 00:01:07 Discovery scientists are making

00:01:07 --> 00:01:09 remarkable progress in turning the

00:01:09 --> 00:01:11 science fiction dream of interstellar

00:01:11 --> 00:01:13 travel into reality through the

00:01:13 --> 00:01:16 development of ultra thin light sails

00:01:16 --> 00:01:18 the Breakthrough starshot initiative a

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21 program started in 2016 by theoretical

00:01:21 --> 00:01:23 physicist Steven Hawking and scientist

00:01:23 --> 00:01:25 Yuri Milner at the California Institute

00:01:25 --> 00:01:27 of Technology has recently achieved a

00:01:27 --> 00:01:30 significant milestone in this ambitious

00:01:30 --> 00:01:32 Endeavor the research team led by

00:01:32 --> 00:01:34 starshot light sale research director

00:01:34 --> 00:01:36 Harry Atwater has developed an

00:01:36 --> 00:01:38 Innovative platform for testing

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40 materials that could potentially form

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43 these revolutionary light sails these

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45 spacecraft propulsion devices would

00:01:45 --> 00:01:47 harness the power of laser beams to

00:01:47 --> 00:01:50 achieve unprecedented speeds potentially

00:01:50 --> 00:01:52 opening up Interstellar distances to

00:01:52 --> 00:01:54 direct exploration that we can currently

00:01:54 --> 00:01:56 only study through remote

00:01:57 --> 00:01:59 observation one of the most challenging

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01 aspects of developing these light sails

00:02:01 --> 00:02:02 is creating a membrane that can

00:02:02 --> 00:02:05 withstand intense heat while maintaining

00:02:05 --> 00:02:06 its shape under pressure and staying

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09 stable along a laser beam's axis the

00:02:09 --> 00:02:11 team has ingeniously engineered a test

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13 to measure the precise force that lasers

00:02:13 --> 00:02:15 exert on ultra thin membranes of

00:02:15 --> 00:02:18 different materials turning what was

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20 once a technical obstacle into a

00:02:20 --> 00:02:22 scientific Advantage their research has

00:02:22 --> 00:02:24 revealed fascinating insights into how

00:02:24 --> 00:02:26 these miniature light sails interact

00:02:26 --> 00:02:29 with laser beams when struck by light

00:02:29 --> 00:02:31 these mechanical resonators vibrate in

00:02:31 --> 00:02:33 response to both heat and radiation

00:02:33 --> 00:02:35 pressure the team discovered that by

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37 studying these vibrations they could

00:02:37 --> 00:02:38 accurately measure the force being

00:02:39 --> 00:02:41 exerted on the membrane providing

00:02:41 --> 00:02:44 crucial data for future designs perhaps

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46 most intriguingly the researchers found

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48 that when laser beams strike the light

00:02:48 --> 00:02:50 sail at Angles as would happen in real

00:02:50 --> 00:02:52 space conditions the force is actually

00:02:52 --> 00:02:55 lower than theoretical predictions this

00:02:55 --> 00:02:57 discovery attributed to light scattering

00:02:57 --> 00:02:59 off the sail's edges has led to promis

00:03:00 --> 00:03:02 ing new research directions involving

00:03:02 --> 00:03:04 nanomaterials and metamaterials that

00:03:04 --> 00:03:06 could help control the sideways movement

00:03:06 --> 00:03:08 and rotation of these future

00:03:08 --> 00:03:10 spacecraft this breakthrough represents

00:03:10 --> 00:03:12 a crucial stepping stone toward

00:03:12 --> 00:03:14 developing freely accelerating light

00:03:14 --> 00:03:17 sails that could one day carry tiny

00:03:17 --> 00:03:19 probes to our nearest star systems

00:03:19 --> 00:03:21 potentially revolutionizing our ability

00:03:21 --> 00:03:24 to explore the cosmos firsthand the

00:03:24 --> 00:03:25 team's work continues to focus on

00:03:25 --> 00:03:27 creating surfaces that can automatically

00:03:28 --> 00:03:29 correct their position if they drift off

00:03:29 --> 00:03:31 of course bringing us ever closer to

00:03:31 --> 00:03:34 making Interstellar travel a

00:03:34 --> 00:03:37 reality next up today NASA is preparing

00:03:37 --> 00:03:38 to launch an extraordinary new space

00:03:38 --> 00:03:40 telescope that promises to revolutionize

00:03:41 --> 00:03:44 our view of the cosmos named sphx this

00:03:44 --> 00:03:46 Innovative Observatory is scheduled for

00:03:46 --> 00:03:49 launch in late February aboard a SpaceX

00:03:49 --> 00:03:51 Falcon 9 rocket marking another

00:03:51 --> 00:03:52 milestone in our journey to understand

00:03:52 --> 00:03:55 the universe what makes FX truly special

00:03:55 --> 00:03:57 is its unprecedented ability to map the

00:03:57 --> 00:04:00 entire sky in 102 different infrared

00:04:00 --> 00:04:02 colors something that's never been done

00:04:02 --> 00:04:04 before in human history while the James

00:04:04 --> 00:04:06 web Space Telescope excels at studying

00:04:06 --> 00:04:08 specific celestial objects in great

00:04:08 --> 00:04:10 detail sphex will take a broader

00:04:10 --> 00:04:12 approach creating a comprehensive

00:04:12 --> 00:04:15 Panorama of the entire Sky visible from

00:04:15 --> 00:04:18 Earth this eggshell white conical probe

00:04:18 --> 00:04:20 might look modest compared to some of

00:04:20 --> 00:04:22 its predecessors but don't let its

00:04:22 --> 00:04:24 appearance fool you weighing about as

00:04:24 --> 00:04:26 much as a grand piano and using less

00:04:26 --> 00:04:29 power than your home refrigerator sphex

00:04:29 --> 00:04:30 has been engine engineered to perform

00:04:30 --> 00:04:32 its Mission with remarkable

00:04:32 --> 00:04:34 efficiency to protect its sensitive

00:04:35 --> 00:04:37 instruments from heat interference the

00:04:37 --> 00:04:39 spacecraft features an ingenious design

00:04:39 --> 00:04:42 with three concentric cone-shaped Photon

00:04:42 --> 00:04:45 Shields and specialized radiator plates

00:04:45 --> 00:04:47 these work together to keep the

00:04:47 --> 00:04:49 telescope cool enough to detect the

00:04:49 --> 00:04:51 faintest infrared signals from space the

00:04:51 --> 00:04:54 mission's goals are ambitious scientists

00:04:54 --> 00:04:56 hope to use sphex to study hundreds of

00:04:56 --> 00:04:58 millions of galaxies potentially

00:04:58 --> 00:05:01 unlocking secrets about Cosmic inflation

00:05:01 --> 00:05:03 that mind-bending moment just after the

00:05:03 --> 00:05:05 big bang when the universe expanded

00:05:05 --> 00:05:07 faster than the speed of light they're

00:05:08 --> 00:05:10 also planning to search for Icy organic

00:05:10 --> 00:05:13 molecules floating between Stars which

00:05:13 --> 00:05:15 could help explain how life on Earth

00:05:15 --> 00:05:18 began what's particularly exciting is

00:05:18 --> 00:05:20 how sphex will work in tandem with other

00:05:20 --> 00:05:23 observatories its all Sky infrared map

00:05:23 --> 00:05:25 will be an invaluable resource for James

00:05:25 --> 00:05:27 web telescope scientists helping them

00:05:27 --> 00:05:29 identify the most promising targets for

00:05:29 --> 00:05:32 detailed observation every 6 months

00:05:32 --> 00:05:35 sphex will complete a new map of the sky

00:05:35 --> 00:05:37 building up an unprecedented view of our

00:05:37 --> 00:05:38 Cosmic neighborhood over its 2-year

00:05:38 --> 00:05:41 primary Mission at a modest cost of

00:05:41 --> 00:05:45 around $488 million sphex demonstrates

00:05:45 --> 00:05:46 that groundbreaking science doesn't

00:05:46 --> 00:05:48 always require the most expensive

00:05:48 --> 00:05:51 instruments instead it's about having

00:05:51 --> 00:05:53 the right tool for the right job and in

00:05:53 --> 00:05:56 this case that means creating the most

00:05:56 --> 00:05:58 detailed infrared map of our universe

00:05:58 --> 00:06:00 ever attempted

00:06:00 --> 00:06:02 let's head over to Jupiter now Jupiter's

00:06:02 --> 00:06:04 moon IO has just set a new record for

00:06:04 --> 00:06:06 volcanic activity and what NASA's Juno

00:06:06 --> 00:06:09 spacecraft recently witnessed there is

00:06:09 --> 00:06:11 nothing short of spectacular during its

00:06:11 --> 00:06:15 December 2023 flyby Juno observed a

00:06:15 --> 00:06:17 volcanic event so massive it makes

00:06:17 --> 00:06:19 Earth's most powerful eruptions look

00:06:19 --> 00:06:22 like campfires in comparison the newly

00:06:22 --> 00:06:23 discovered hotspot region on io's

00:06:23 --> 00:06:25 Surface spans an area larger than Lake

00:06:25 --> 00:06:27 Superior and the energy it's releasing

00:06:27 --> 00:06:30 is truly mind-boggling equivalent to six

00:06:30 --> 00:06:32 times the combined output of All Earth's

00:06:32 --> 00:06:35 power plants this isn't just another

00:06:35 --> 00:06:37 eruption on I/O it's the most powerful

00:06:37 --> 00:06:39 volcanic event ever recorded on what was

00:06:39 --> 00:06:41 already known as the most volcanic World

00:06:41 --> 00:06:44 in our solar system the discovery came

00:06:44 --> 00:06:46 during Juno's close approach to IO when

00:06:46 --> 00:06:49 it passed within about 930 Mi of the

00:06:49 --> 00:06:52 moon's surface using its infrared

00:06:52 --> 00:06:54 instrument the spacecraft detected an

00:06:54 --> 00:06:56 enormous hot spot in io's southern

00:06:56 --> 00:06:58 hemisphere that was so intense it

00:06:58 --> 00:07:01 actually Satur ated the detector

00:07:01 --> 00:07:03 scientists believe what they're seeing

00:07:03 --> 00:07:05 isn't just one massive eruption but

00:07:05 --> 00:07:07 several closely spaced hot spots all

00:07:07 --> 00:07:10 erupting simultaneously suggesting the

00:07:10 --> 00:07:12 presence of a vast underground magma

00:07:12 --> 00:07:14 chamber system what makes IO such a

00:07:14 --> 00:07:17 volcanic Powerhouse the answer lies in

00:07:17 --> 00:07:19 its relationship with Jupiter as the

00:07:19 --> 00:07:21 moon orbits the gas giant every 42.5

00:07:21 --> 00:07:23 hours Jupiter's immense gravitational

00:07:24 --> 00:07:26 pull creates powerful tidal forces that

00:07:26 --> 00:07:29 literally squeeze and stretch IO this

00:07:29 --> 00:07:31 constant kneading generates tremendous

00:07:31 --> 00:07:33 heat inside the moon leading to the

00:07:33 --> 00:07:35 spectacular volcanic activity we're

00:07:35 --> 00:07:37 witnessing the moon surface is already

00:07:37 --> 00:07:40 home to about 400 active volcanoes all

00:07:40 --> 00:07:43 spewing lava gas and Ash into io's

00:07:43 --> 00:07:46 atmosphere this new eruption however

00:07:46 --> 00:07:48 stands apart in its sheer scale and

00:07:48 --> 00:07:51 intensity the affected region covers

00:07:51 --> 00:07:53 roughly 40 square miles and

00:07:53 --> 00:07:55 scientists are eagerly awaiting Juno's

00:07:55 --> 00:07:57 next flyby in March to see how this

00:07:57 --> 00:07:59 remarkable event has reshaped io's

00:07:59 --> 00:08:00 surface

00:08:00 --> 00:08:02 these observations aren't just

00:08:02 --> 00:08:04 spectacular they're providing valuable

00:08:04 --> 00:08:07 insights into volcanic processes not

00:08:07 --> 00:08:09 just on iO but potentially on other

00:08:09 --> 00:08:12 worlds throughout our solar system as

00:08:12 --> 00:08:14 scientists continue to study this

00:08:14 --> 00:08:16 unprecedented event we're gaining new

00:08:17 --> 00:08:18 understanding of how planetary bodies

00:08:18 --> 00:08:21 evolve and interact with their

00:08:21 --> 00:08:23 environments okay how did you go at

00:08:23 --> 00:08:24 photographing Comet Atlas When It sped

00:08:24 --> 00:08:27 by us last month not as well as this I

00:08:27 --> 00:08:29 would think a remarkable Celestial

00:08:29 --> 00:08:31 spectacle unfolded in our Cosmic

00:08:31 --> 00:08:35 neighborhood as Comet c224 G3 also known

00:08:35 --> 00:08:38 as Comet Atlas made its dramatic Journey

00:08:38 --> 00:08:40 past the sun between January 11th and

00:08:40 --> 00:08:43 15th the comet treated astronomers to an

00:08:43 --> 00:08:45 extraordinary show as it blazed through

00:08:45 --> 00:08:47 the inner solar system coming within

00:08:47 --> 00:08:49 just 8 million miles of our star that's

00:08:49 --> 00:08:51 a mere 9% of the distance between Earth

00:08:51 --> 00:08:54 and the Sun the esa and NASA's Soho

00:08:54 --> 00:08:57 spacecraft captured stunning images of

00:08:57 --> 00:08:59 this Cosmic Wanderer using its Lasco

00:08:59 --> 00:09:01 instrument by cleverly blocking out the

00:09:01 --> 00:09:04 sun's intense light with a special disc

00:09:04 --> 00:09:06 Lasco revealed intricate details of the

00:09:06 --> 00:09:08 comet's taale as it responded to the

00:09:08 --> 00:09:10 solar wind these observations are

00:09:10 --> 00:09:12 providing scientists with valuable

00:09:12 --> 00:09:13 insights into how the sun's constant

00:09:13 --> 00:09:15 stream of particles and energy

00:09:15 --> 00:09:18 influences objects passing through our

00:09:18 --> 00:09:20 solar neighborhood the images processed

00:09:20 --> 00:09:22 by Carl badams at the US Naval Research

00:09:22 --> 00:09:24 lab brought out remarkable fine details

00:09:24 --> 00:09:26 in the comet's tale showcasing how it

00:09:26 --> 00:09:28 twisted and turned in response to

00:09:28 --> 00:09:30 fluctuations in the solar wind this

00:09:30 --> 00:09:33 interaction between Comet and solar wind

00:09:33 --> 00:09:35 is helping heloh physicists better

00:09:35 --> 00:09:37 understand the sun's influence on its

00:09:37 --> 00:09:38 surrounding

00:09:38 --> 00:09:40 environment while the comet briefly

00:09:40 --> 00:09:42 graced Northern Hemisphere Skies during

00:09:43 --> 00:09:45 its closest approach to the sun it has

00:09:45 --> 00:09:48 since moved into Southern Skies however

00:09:48 --> 00:09:50 there are indications that this Cosmic

00:09:50 --> 00:09:52 visitor may have paid a price for its

00:09:52 --> 00:09:55 close encounter with our star scientists

00:09:55 --> 00:09:57 have observed signs suggesting the comet

00:09:57 --> 00:09:59 might be breaking apart with which could

00:09:59 --> 00:10:01 lead to it rapidly fading from view in

00:10:01 --> 00:10:02 the coming

00:10:02 --> 00:10:05 days next let's turn our attention to

00:10:05 --> 00:10:07 some fascinating lunar developments that

00:10:07 --> 00:10:09 are reshaping our understanding of

00:10:09 --> 00:10:12 Earth's closest Celestial neighbor

00:10:12 --> 00:10:15 firefli Blu ghost Mission has reached a

00:10:15 --> 00:10:17 significant milestone in its 45-day

00:10:17 --> 00:10:19 Journey to the Moon with NASA's

00:10:19 --> 00:10:23 specialized camera system scalps 1.1

00:10:23 --> 00:10:24 successfully completing its first round

00:10:24 --> 00:10:25 of

00:10:25 --> 00:10:28 tests all six of its highresolution

00:10:28 --> 00:10:30 cameras are functioning perfectly ready

00:10:30 --> 00:10:32 to document every crucial moment of the

00:10:32 --> 00:10:34 spacecraft's eventual descent and

00:10:34 --> 00:10:37 touchdown on the lunar surface four of

00:10:37 --> 00:10:38 these cameras are specifically designed

00:10:38 --> 00:10:40 to capture the interaction between blue

00:10:40 --> 00:10:43 ghost's rocket plumes and the moon's

00:10:43 --> 00:10:45 surface while two additional cameras

00:10:45 --> 00:10:47 will record detailed before and after

00:10:47 --> 00:10:50 images of the landing site this

00:10:50 --> 00:10:52 documentation is becoming increasingly

00:10:52 --> 00:10:53 important as we prepare for more

00:10:53 --> 00:10:55 frequent lunar missions helping

00:10:55 --> 00:10:57 scientists better understand how

00:10:57 --> 00:10:59 spacecraft Landings affect the lunar

00:10:59 --> 00:11:02 environment meanwhile a groundbreaking

00:11:02 --> 00:11:04 discovery on the moon's Far Side is

00:11:04 --> 00:11:06 challenging our long-held assumptions

00:11:06 --> 00:11:09 about lunar geology researchers from the

00:11:09 --> 00:11:11 National Air and Space Museum and the

00:11:11 --> 00:11:13 University of Maryland have identified

00:11:14 --> 00:11:17 266 previously unknown small ridges that

00:11:17 --> 00:11:19 tell an unexpected story of recent

00:11:19 --> 00:11:21 geological activity these ridges

00:11:21 --> 00:11:23 typically found in groups of 10 to 40

00:11:24 --> 00:11:26 appear to be surprisingly young possibly

00:11:26 --> 00:11:28 forming within the last 200 million

00:11:28 --> 00:11:30 years this is remarkably recent in

00:11:30 --> 00:11:32 geological terms especially for a body

00:11:32 --> 00:11:34 that many scientists believed had been

00:11:34 --> 00:11:35 geologically dormant for billions of

00:11:35 --> 00:11:38 years the research team used crater

00:11:38 --> 00:11:39 counting techniques to date these

00:11:39 --> 00:11:41 features finding that some ridges even

00:11:41 --> 00:11:44 cut through existing impact craters

00:11:44 --> 00:11:45 providing clear evidence of their

00:11:45 --> 00:11:48 relatively recent formation the

00:11:48 --> 00:11:49 structures bear striking similarities to

00:11:50 --> 00:11:52 features found on the moon's near side

00:11:52 --> 00:11:54 suggesting they were created by the same

00:11:54 --> 00:11:57 forces possibly shallow moonquakes first

00:11:57 --> 00:11:59 detected during the Apollo missions

00:11:59 --> 00:12:01 these movements are likely caused by a

00:12:01 --> 00:12:02 combination of shifts in the moon's

00:12:02 --> 00:12:05 orbit and its gradual shrinking a

00:12:05 --> 00:12:06 process that continues to influence

00:12:06 --> 00:12:09 lunar surface Dynamics today these

00:12:09 --> 00:12:11 findings have significant implications

00:12:11 --> 00:12:12 for future lunar exploration and

00:12:12 --> 00:12:14 infrastructure

00:12:14 --> 00:12:16 planning understanding that the Moon is

00:12:16 --> 00:12:18 still geologically active will be

00:12:18 --> 00:12:20 crucial for determining safe locations

00:12:20 --> 00:12:22 for future astronaut missions equipment

00:12:22 --> 00:12:24 placement and potential permanent

00:12:24 --> 00:12:27 installations on the lunar

00:12:27 --> 00:12:30 surface and that brings us to the end of
