Gain further insight of the effects of space on humans. >> they want to look at what the space environment has done to my rna, dna, protein. >> were in a position to look at how humans respond to these challenges and put us in a better position to explore far beyond earth. >> we understand our physiology better. a mars flight is something definitely that we can accomplish. coming up, the rapid response panel and the ted cruz foreign policy is next. stocks end slightly higher on friday. the d...

Months. and a twin experiment thats ouch out of this world. >> the space environment is pretty severe. >> good to have you with us tonight, folks. thanks for watching. we start with discrimination in the state of indiana. on thursday republican governor mike pence signed a so-called religious freedom bill into law. the bill was signed in a private ceremony in pences office. no members of the public or press were allowed to attend. here it is. senate bill 101 prohibits state or local government...

Space. they can compare us. our physiology is very similar. we have similar genetics. im a pretty good control for the experiment in space. >> and when you look at this in the context of a space flight to mars, what is important here? what are you hopeful for? >> we know pretty well the engineering were going to need and what wed have to do to send people to mars but we dont know the effect of the physiology on the body. we dont have enough information to send people to mars and get them back sa...

Three, two, one. radar tracking. >> blastoff. not one, two or three. nasa sending 29 satellites into space overnight. the rocket could be seen in the sky, the record breaking 29 satellites inside will measure different aspects of the space environment. the f.a.a. is putting new restrictions on overweight pilots and air traffic controllers. pilots with a b.m.i. of at least 40 or with necks within 17 inches must be evaluated by a sleep specialist and treated with sleep apnea before being able to...

So i think -- i was kind of surprised at all the detail and accuracy, the detail of the set they created in the movie. >> what about the part they got wrong? what parts did you watch and think oh, thats just completely insane? >> i think what im happy about is they included not just the space shuttle and -- although we dont fly the space shuttle any longer. thats one thing. im glad they included it because its still part of our consciousness and our space program. at least the history of our spa...

They use material and find these organic compounds already existing and means they have been created by some astronomical process. the question is could some of those organic compounds that are the building blocks for the amino acids that form life here on this planet, could they have been transported somehow from the distant locations to this planet? turns out that perhaps a vehicle may have been, either a comet or a meteor or an asteroid that has somehow collected this material and brought it ...

Did see changes in the body but it was nothing that could not be overcome. >> that was significant because it meant we could go to the moon, that we could chance a mission of that duration, if not longer. that changed peoples perspective? >> the moon flights were thought to be only a max of two-week flight. >> 14 day mission has shown us that man, indeed, adapts to the space environment and the additional data allows us to permit man to a lunar mission. >> apollo program got us to the moon but i...

Change peoples perspective. >> they said it would be about a two-week flight we had to make sure people were able to function in that respect. >> 14 day mission has shown us that man indeed adapts to the space environment the additional data allow us to commit men to a lunar mission. >> more after the break. initiated. neural speeds increasing to 4g lte. brain upgrading to a quad-core processor. predictive intelligence with google now complete. introducing droid dna by htc.

Camera. its key components made here in britain in these clean rooms at a high-tech firm at chelmsford and essex. here they specialize in making photographic sensors, tiny devices. this is one of them. and people here are delighted at what theyre finding. >> its fantastic. its something that you cant get working in any other industry really besides the space environment where we get to see the results of our endeavors published, getting a very wide community of people across the world excited by...
