1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Time for our worldview, and you take a worldview with 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Adam Gilgis Adam, A very good morning to you and 3 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: welcome to the show. 4 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,240 Speaker 2: Morning Zane. Thank you. And answer is yes, I'm coping 5 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 2: very well with a long weekend. And it's only been 6 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,239 Speaker 2: going about six hours, so it's fine. It's good so far. 7 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: It's about planning ahead for the long weekend, Adam, NASA 8 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,479 Speaker 1: had a very interesting thing happened this week. I just 9 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: want to play something very quickly. This is what happened, 10 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,320 Speaker 1: I think yesterday morning earlyie. 11 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 3: Ten nine eight seven forrest twenty five injuries four three 12 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 3: two one booster, ignition and lift off. The crew of 13 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,720 Speaker 3: Artemis two now bound for the Moon. Humanity's next great 14 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 3: voyage begins. 15 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 2: And you love the script. Good roder rare. 16 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:04,040 Speaker 3: Bitch Houstad now controlling the flight of Integrity on the 17 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 3: Artemists two mission around. 18 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: Adam. That was the NASA's moon shot and the latest 19 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 1: done Artimus Choose lunar mission that took off you yesterday morning, 20 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: four astronauts going to or but the Moon quite exciting. 21 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: I know that we were all watching it yesterday morning. 22 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it does feel like one small step with 23 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: a giantly attached. But I love the flight of integrity line. 24 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 2: We should try those. I'm on a flight of integrity, 25 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 2: even if you're just in the car. So yeah, asmis too. 26 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: We know it orbited the Earth for about twenty four hours. 27 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: When it first went up, I just had to check 28 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: that all the systems were working properly, and a couple worned. 29 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 2: And now it has boosted its rockets and just a 30 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 2: little little burn and off it goes. So now it's 31 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: heading the quarter of a million miles, but we're talking 32 00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: four arndred thousand kilometers to the Moon. We're told it 33 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 2: will go the furthest into space of any manned object. 34 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: I'm thinking it didn't Apollo thirteen go to the duck 35 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 2: sid'd sling shotting around the Moon. At least it did 36 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 2: in the Tom Hanks movie version of Apollo thirteen. But anyway, 37 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 2: maybe it's splitting hairs all we go for all humanity, 38 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 2: said read Wiseman, one of the astronauts, Which is kind 39 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: of good news because you do feel that a lot 40 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 2: of stuff in America is America only at the moment, 41 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: it was all about flags and footsteps. The last time 42 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 2: NASA was going anywhere near the moon. But these days 43 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: maybe it is a bit more of a global pull 44 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: together and the only thing insane. There were a couple 45 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: of small problems early on. Comms were not perfect, and 46 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: that's kind of important. The astronauts can talk to mission control. 47 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: And also the onboard toilet developed a malfunction, a problem 48 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 2: with the lavatory, just a couple of hours into a 49 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 2: ten day journey. I don't know about you, but I 50 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 2: remember being on the Channel tunnel ones and the toilets 51 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 2: weren't working, and that was an interminable thirty minutes. Can 52 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: you imagine ten days If your toilet's not working, it 53 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 2: would probably like a train journey in India. You just 54 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: don't want to go there. Luckily they did fix it. 55 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: It gives a new meaning to the word slingshot. 56 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 2: So that could be a very uncomfortable one. 57 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, how long is this journey going to be? 58 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 2: It's ten days in total, so I guess it's pretty 59 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 2: much five days there, five days back. But I'm not 60 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 2: sure if mathematically that's entirely true, because sometimes it feels 61 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 2: quicker going home, doesn't it. You know, when the pilot 62 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: wants to get home on an aeroplane, you think about 63 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 2: sometimes going. But yeah, ten days in total. We're one 64 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 2: day in and it seems like everything is going to plan. 65 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 2: So fingers crossed because it is the dawn of the 66 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: new space exploration age and there's something exciting about that. Definitely. 67 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: Our second topic for the morning is a sexual assault 68 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:05,839 Speaker 1: Spanish style. I was completely flabbergasted by this, but yeah, 69 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to be very careful when I am in 70 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: Spain next time and I tried to greet a lady. 71 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, or indeed there might be other European countries that 72 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: could follow, so me in France is an obvious one 73 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 2: as well. So this is about kissing the hand of 74 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: a woman, which feels very old fashioned. It's not part 75 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: of British culture, understandably. I can't think it's part of 76 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 2: South African culture. But kissing the hand of a woman 77 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: without her consent could now be classified as sexual assault. 78 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 2: In Spain, you think of it as old fashioned, an 79 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 2: act of charm, an active gallantry, but the Supreme Court 80 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 2: in Spain has decided that it is a kind of assault. 81 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: There was a case of a man in Madrid who 82 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 2: approached a woman at a bus stop and kissed her hand. 83 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 2: He was found guilty of sexual assault and find sixteen 84 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 2: hundred euros more or less thirty two hundred rand. He argued, 85 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 2: there'd be no violence, no intimidation. He did invite the 86 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,840 Speaker 2: woman to follow him home, but she didn't comply and 87 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 2: there encounter ended there. But he's lost his appeal. It 88 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: was apparently kissing her hand harassment or worse. Two magistrates 89 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: disagreed with the decision. And this is the thing they say. 90 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 2: The kiss on the hand is a part of Spanish 91 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: culture and akin to shaking someone's hand. I mean, are 92 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 2: they right? In France, if you're not careful, you can 93 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 2: get three or four kisses on each cheek. He keeps 94 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 2: on going is intrusive in this day and age. There 95 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 2: are plenty of people who want to think it is. 96 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: What's been acceptable probably is unacceptable these days when you 97 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 1: when you actually really look at it, and it's preferred 98 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: to just keep your distance and greet and say hello, 99 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 1: and if you really want to shake the hand, and 100 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: that's it, and then you can be fine for this 101 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,280 Speaker 1: in Spain these days, if you are not careful. Attaching 102 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: this morning to Adam Gilchrist on our Worldview, The last 103 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 1: story for This Morning anim is called name that storm. 104 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: Yes, okay, we've got a storm coming here to the UK. 105 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: Storm Dave, does that sound threatening? Good old storm Dave, 106 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 2: when he's finished doing your plumbing and driving the bus 107 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 2: here he comes. I mean, it's going to be quite 108 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: a storm. And the point of the named storms, of course, 109 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 2: is that then we all pay attention to them, and 110 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 2: it's been proven in the last eight nine years that 111 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 2: it kind of works. So apparently, actually we're getting three 112 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 2: storms in a row here. It's not always the UK 113 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,359 Speaker 2: that gets to name the storms. Sometimes it's France, sometimes Ireland, 114 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: sometimes the Netherlands. But I love the fact that in 115 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: this time age, people, as in the Great British public, 116 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 2: get to suggest names for storms. So a couple that 117 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 2: have immediately been swept away and are not under consideration 118 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 2: are Elon Gust and Dame Judy Drench, which have a 119 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 2: certain appeal I think in terms of certain kinds of storms. 120 00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 2: Other suggestions that again the Meteorological Office has shied away from. 121 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 2: They don't really do penny names, but we do when 122 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 2: we're suggesting them. How about Secure Stormer, David Blowey, Storm 123 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 2: Prince Andrew Bruce, Springstorm fifty Shades of Rain, which it 124 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: has been here for about six weeks. Stormzy inevitably but 125 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 2: also the most inevitable suggestive name of all stormy storm Face. 126 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: It had to be there, didn't it. None of those, 127 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 2: by the way, will be the names of storms. 128 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you've got to just call it after the Cape 129 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: Tan Drug big team and call it Stormers. Then you've 130 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: have been on points and that's Adam gilgo is chatting 131 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: to us as morning. Adam, thank you so much for 132 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: your time this weeking and enjoy and have a lovely 133 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: long weekend, Happy Easter. 134 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 2: Thank you.
