to the plan ets as we tackle common questions with neal degrass tyson. >> what about aliens and ufos? >> you mean aliens like antennas and ray guns? >> something more than a cell.
unexplained. so wallace asked astrophysicist neil degrasse tyson what he thinks about the possibility of life in outer space. >> do you believe that there is life out there somewhere? >> i would say that if there weren't life, it would be astonishing given how common our ingredients are and how quickly life took place here and how many planets are orbiting host stars. it would be astonishing if that were the case. >> what about ail yeps and ufos? >> like with antennas and ray guns? >> something with more than a cell. >> something in a spaceship? could be out there. there is no evidence that would convince an authentic skeptic that we have been visited. i can tell you this. these fuzzy monochromatic tic tacs that show up in the navy, restricted airspace in our own
A wireless transmitter uses almost no power and at first glance appears to violate the laws of physics. It’s actually a clever use of physics that could one day transmit data from tiny remote sensors.

you want to raise a child to be a critical thinker, have him or her be a criticao with socialization in the form of peer-reviewed ethics studies given to you by the new jersey governor, absolutely atrocious. pete: the best course would be civics. understand -- will: primary documents. pete: logic at a rhetoric would help as well. the minute somebody invokes the concept of democracy, all my antennas are up. this is the example this week. the house of representatives, 15 votes were house speaker was the example of democracy in action. so many stepped up and say what a clown show. this is what the founders who wanted the house to represent the passions of the people, the momentary, emotional temperature of the public, turns over every two years. if you don't represent people,
The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Programme (HAARP), a powerful transmitter in remote Alaska, aimed its antennas at asteroid 2010 XC15, a space rock categorised as a near-Earth potentially hazardous asteroid, to send long wavelength radio signals.The

the patriot missile system to the air defense systems ukraine is already relying on, particularly old soviet made ones but ones supplied by nato partners in recent months. is this a major upgrade in terms of technology? >> yes, it is. one of the things, jim, is that it juuses a phased array radar that means the patriot system can hone in on a target using multiple beams without changing the antenna configuration, they don't have to move the antennas, do anything like that. a lot of the systems they have right now, whether the old soviet era systems or newer systems from nato countries, they are basically designed in some cases at least to be less reliant on technology and more physically reliant. so what that would mean is those systems require the physical movement of antennas, they can then determine where the missiles are, so it's a much
humans back to space and the moon soon. joining us now with more insight into this mission is retired nasa astronaut, leroy chow. so leroy, today is for celebrating. what does the next stage of work look like? we always want to look ahead? >> absolutely. so, this flight test looked like it went very well. there were a few small glitches with the power systems, the antennas, and the star trackers a little bit. but by and large, everything looked like it went extremely well. probably the next step is to plan to put humans onboard this spacecraft and rocket and launch them around the moon into lunar orbit, very much like the apollo 8 mission from 1968. hopefully, that will be the next s step. >> so we've seen this boom. could this mission help nasa reassert its place as a leader in space exploration?
Australia on Monday started building a vast network of antennas in the Outback, its section of what planners say will eventually become one of the most powerful radio telescopes in the world.
