A digitized voice sound. And we look at plants they may seem new but they have their own ways of communicating. The official opening of the of a young 6 integration hole in braman. At the un 6 is the European Space agencys new launch vehicle its upper stage is being built here europe is trying to consolidate forces in its Space Program to counter the growing global competition the new heavy lift rocket will also be carrying the hopes for future space missions. Because it was a high tech sector for and high tech is never finished we always have new ideas for improving the rocketeers. What innovations does our young 6 have to offer heres an overview top to. Europes new launch vehicle will stand more than 60 meters tall. Buildings the ariane 6 rocket posed challenges for the European Space agencys engineers and technicians. Huge fuel tanks were produced using a technique called friction star welding it softens the metal edges by friction to create smooth and durable seals its a solid state process that doesnt melt the material it works at temperatures as low as 500. 00 degrees celsius compared to the more than 2000 degrees of the usual arc welding technique. Though i didnt know it in. The new materials review last year contain a large amount of lithium. And mostly im cannot be joined using arc welding. Details i know melting temperature so it would quickly evaporate yes well thought that. The lightweight alum many im living on tanks are part of the engine that powers the upper stage of the rocket. That engine has been named vinci in on of the great inventor and artist Leonardo Da Vinci it special feature is that it can be restarted 5 times during a mission. That way arianne 6 will be able to release satellites destined for different orbits at different altitudes. The rocket is expected to play a part in many different projects. For example to create a network of satellites spanning the globe to enable fast internet all over the planet. The restartable vinci engine would enable the precise positioning of the necessary swarm of satellites. Plants that were developed for this purpose include vista dept or the support structure is designed to carry more than a dozen small satellites and deliver them to their place in space. At launch booster rockets will provide arianne with the necessary thrust. At this advanced Production Facility the boosters structural casings are constructed out of lightweight carbon fiber materials and other rockets the casings are still made of metal. The boosters have to withstand enormous strain theyre filled with solid propellant fuel when its ignited it will produce tremendous heat and pressure in the interior. Area and 6 has yet to be launched but engineers are already working on improving it they want to reduce its weight to increase its frost. So the plan is to develop a new upper stage by 2025. We call it the black above steps because it will be. Across the edge and as you know cow bunnies. Called by nancy and this is why it will eloise to have up to 2 tons mock up by bt focused on us. It currently takes about a year and a half to build an engine like this by using 3 d. Printing production time could well be slashed to just a few weeks and the costs reduced by a factor of 10. In 2018 a printed prototype of the engine was tested at the German Aerospace center in southern germany. In the future the idea is for the ariane engine to return to earth after its flight to be reused. Up to 5 times. Its an important Building Block for a reusable rocket in an Ongoing Research project a demonstrator a model Prototype Version was built to test how fuels perform in different way usable engine designs. If tomorrows a market is going to expand and to be bought that it is important that we have the capability to match it with a reusable orkut it is not the case today because the market today those note does not to go totally into direction between must be ready and this is why we want to must also be noted g. s which could go low as one day to go for reusability. But 1st this edition of the arianne 6 rocket has to prove itself. To launch as planned for late 2020. The universe is a piece with particles that traverse entire planets stars and galaxies neutrinos their monk the most common elementary particles and a source of fascination for scientists in the antarctic an entire observatory has been built to detect these mysterious objects. In 2015 to physicists shared the nobel prize for demonstrating that neutrinos have moves but how much mass to find out researchers have developed the worlds most precise scale. Tree knows are born during Nuclear Fusion in the sun countless numbers of solar neutrinos arrive on earth every 2nd and thats just one source of these mysterious particles theyre so puny that until recently scientists believed they had no mass at all. Today we know that this subatomic particles do have a mass and extreme. Only small one physicist magnus lesser is involved in experiments to pin it down theyve already yielded initial results. Yet so his measurements allowed us to narrow down the estimated mass so the upper limit was previously to electronic votes but now weve cut that in half with we now know that you train those have to be lighter than one electron volts mass acquittal and its hard to picture how small that is grams it was erode point followed by saudi 6 more zeros and then only ones thats an incredibly tiny mass is getting us. Closer as part of an International Team of more than 100. 00 researchers here at the crowds who institute of technology theyre using a giant neutrino scale and operators called cutting in to investigate one of the biggest mysteries in physics cutting was built in southeastern germany in 2001. But it was too big to be transported by land instead it went on a 9000 kilometer detour down the danube around europe by sea and up the rhine then came a tight squeeze the last few kilometers in karls who are to the Research Center where it finally got down to work. A big effort for such tiny particles. Considered by every getting big centimeter of the universe still has about 300 neutrinos left over from the big bang with the use of other sources like the sun and supernovas all those also produce huge amounts and not him a lot of new transfers arrive on earth and pass right through our bodies get out of these nets so weakly interactively that we dont even notice them not feel familiar theres a glass or 2 every square centimeter of our skin every 2nd of this and we dont even notice from those. Weighing neutrinos its very complicated and requires some clever tricks catch me in measure some 70 meters long. At one end of the device the scientists put tritium a radioactive isotope of hydrogen. The base of the k. Of the red. Active tritium nuclei produces an electron and a neutrino the 2 particles share the decay energy which is a known quantity and that allows the researchers to determine the neutrinos mass the neutrinos arent detectable but the electrons are and their energy can be measured only a few highly energetic electrons end up in the giant spectrometer the researchers measure their energy and then subtract it from the decay energy to arrive at the neutrinos energy and thus its mass. Now the researchers want to make the measurements even more sensitive. But must if the mass is here and we keep increasing sensitivity will come a point where well be able to actually measure a mass right now the sensitivities here and the mass is somewhere between 0 and this limit we cant measure it yet but were getting that good old us to do the project will continue through 2024 giving the scientists 1000 days of measurements in all that. Is the simplest things about what were doing here is that were working right at the scientific frontenac and at the cutting edge of stuff weve got our team with all these experts and so i working to push that boundaries even for. The pros who are researchers now know that the neutrino scale works and what they discover with cartoon over the next few years could revolutionize the world of physics. Neutrinos are a top candidate for the mysterious dark mashhad thats thought to account for most of the stuff in the universe most astro physicists believe that dark matter exists but they still dont know what it consists of. Development is right why are there but only very few if you have a science question send it in as a video text oh voicemail. If we answer it on the show well send even digital surprise as a thank you. Can on just ask. This weeks question comes from severe of you write in columbia. Why do animal horns vary so greatly. Saw a small. Others big. They maybe cut the point upwards or downwards. But even though they look very different they all. Have the same structure the bony core of the horn protrudes from the skull. Then comes the sheath which is usually hollow and made of keratin similar to hair feathers fingernails and hooves. But not all animals with horns come from the same family rhinos or whats known as the odd told uncle that as they have 3 toes and theyre the only ones in that family to have horns. The other group is the brother di family theyre even told uncle lets which nearly all have horns they include cattle sheep and goats but also absolutes and gazelles. By contrast a moose and deer dont have horns they have antlers which are bony structures. Elephant tusks by the way are neither horns nor employers but actually teeth are made of dental. But whats the purpose of home ones. In all cases theyre sharp weapons to fend off enemies. But perhaps their most important function is to impress the males with large attractive horns will have an easier time finding a mate. And a stablish in themselves at the top of the pecking order incidentally they rarely injured each other seriously as the horns fit together well. In short horns vary so much because theyve adapted over time to become more and more specialized to ensure the survival of each species.

Now were going to talk about an instrument we use all the time without giving it much thought our voice. Was a Computer Generated voice but here tomorrow. Today we force everything ourselves so now at least some of the discovery having to do some extra its bad boys and 2 young people who let us borrow their voices for a very interesting. Hello when i am arianna im 29 and im a film student. On this by march 28th and im just real designer. Max and i gonna have been selected for an experiment were going to steal their voices or to be more precise reproduce them digitally with the help of the French Company kandi voice. We can imitate all voices very naturally and not your. First language specialists need voice samples from max and are going on a blind darkness who spoke. And they speak 500 sentences which contain all the sounds of the german language defenselessness and that im flynn dhamma talk in. Dublin but you know also. That the sentences are recorded in a radio studio and sent off to paris. Did you receive the files. Yes i have everything but ill get to work and well see each other in 2 weeks in paris. Will they really be able to create convincing copies of max and arianas voices and what are digital voices actually good for Canadian Software company lyrebird has found at least one yes theyve cloned the voice of donald trump using original sound bytes now they can make him say whatever they want. I am love about my generation is always different and how they want i am not a robot today she was always different im not a robot this is obviously fake but what will happen in the future when the technology is improved and you cant be sure whether the leader of a country really said something or not. Its not going to hold ups and thats what it was an issue of. Liar bird is a free program that anyone can use but currently only in english arianna is testing the program. To do that she needs to record 20 sentences. James put his hand in the pocket of this rope if you breath crumbs remained 10 minutes later the program can say any sentence in our am as voice i mean its in and 29 years old engine. Its not totally convincing but perhaps its only a matter of time before Artificial Intelligence becomes a master impersonator d will we be able to tell the difference between a real human on the phone and a computer clone of their voice will telephone recording still have any legal weight in court its too early for experts to predict what hazards the new technology will bring but despite that lots of Companies Including banks are planning to replace pin numbers with voice recognition. The phone Hoover Institute in darmstadt is testing how secure the systems are project manager flowing and. Shows us how it works minus to me my voice is now my password much to me its what the Company Keeps voice samples of their customers on file its software creates a biometric profile with more than 100 characteristics including pitch and rhythm. With one of my. Mind pos what is my instrument when a customer logs on the program compares their voice to the one saved on their profile if theres a 100 percent match they get the green light but what happens if you played a clone for us from wire bird. To end live and other similar systems havent reached the level of perfection required to replicate the melody and features of a human voice in. Artificial voices are also used in the Entertainment Industry the French Company can be voices developing software for computer games. Players can have fun with well known voices. People whove lost their voice through illness could also benefit from the technology as long as their voice is saved in the system. Now offer good morning. After off again you could do more on. How technology can synthesize a voice on the basis of just 80 words thereafter a voice can say whatever the person wants to play early on in macs are eager to hear what their artificial voices sound like. I give you the microphone Company Founders on luke claim who has something unusual in mind for their visit he claims that ariana should be able to speak in maxs voice lets see if hes right. Are ya im from germany speaking with marches for senate sounds very real. Confirmation are similar to how i hear my record of course the book. And what about vice versa. I must say im speaking with ariannas voice its really pretty convincing but it feels quite weird. The result is really quite impressive but still cant be mistaken for the real thing for our guinea pigs max and im gonna that comes as something of a really. Can hear voices with a real all synthetic. Well study shows that they do perceive sounds that enables the release of the piece shooting to locate a source of water and grow in the direction of the sound. And in other ways to pounce on highly sensitive to signals in their surroundings. Not only registering give off certain fragrances they can also sense whether he is dry or. Whether theres a gentle breeze or strong wind and which direction its coming from. The constantly measuring the air temperature that can differentiate between morning and evening light that are equipped with infrared an ultraviolet light sensors and if they find themselves in the shade they can tell whether its being caused by rock or another plant. Plants collect information every 2nd they need to respond to their environment so they can adopt the right behavior to supply it just like on a moles 10 years ago the idea of plant behavior wasnt taken seriously now thats changing. Just interview can from i think we can call it plant behavior because plants are able to perceive all kinds of environmental conditions process this information internally and then respond accordingly. And i would define that as behavior based on the definition of the word. While tobacco plant called nicotine yeah displays especially complex behavior to defend itself. If attacked by pests or in this case a scientist can produce more than a 1000 substances in just one hour. They all help to fend off attacks from hungry predators and repel them. But it doesnt work on every predator. The hawkmoth is immune to the nicotine produced by the tobacco plant. Its also resistant. So the plant changes its strategy. In the lab gives off certain sense that attract a predatory bug. It pierces the caterpillars and sucks out that and. So the plant is basically drawing on outside help to fend off the pest. But if there arent enough predatory bugs nearby the caterpillars continue to feed. Side of the plant chain just once again. If it uses digestive inhibitors which make sure the caterpillar cant absorb the food. The plant withdraws its nutrients from the leaves and stores them in the stem. These 2 strategies serve one purpose. The caterpillars stay small which keeps them vulnerable to predatory pokes for much longer. Some time. That doesnt help either and the caterpillars probe into giant eating machines. Which could pose a serious threat to the tobacco plants and so it tries yet another tactic. When the fans are ok if your plant is very badly injured it changes the pollinators it attracts from off to hummingbirds which are active during the day. Actually one of the pollination is then taken care of by hummingbirds going up runs up on information this helps the plant to get rid of the hawk moths and their caterpillars but what exactly is it doing. To the flowers change in some way. The. Tests reveal that this is in fact the case. Of descent from the flowers becomes weaker so the book says cant sense and. The plant also keeps its flowers shot at night and only opens them again in the morning when hope lots of talk that. This ensures that the plant is pollinated by hummingbirds and not hope wants. To. Be described as intelligent behavior. Looked at from into the consumer i think its a step too far to call it intelligence i prefer to think of it as complex reactions. Which were planters trying to find a solution to the critical to or sometimes not so critical situation it finds itself in to ensure its survival and. I do believe. These Survival Strategies are genetically programmed theyve evolved throughout the course of evolution to protect the planet and keep predators up by. It seems we can also bribe plants with sound great finds grow better when theyre exposed to lots of music the grapes us reset and the plants are more existant to diseases at least thats what one study claims.
