1 00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,880 Speaker 1: Lisa, you've been staring at the window for hours, have 2 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:11,559 Speaker 1: I Cowie's right? 3 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,319 Speaker 2: You seem so story eyed. 4 00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 3: What's on your mind? 5 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 2: Well, I've been thinking about space a lot. Really, what's 6 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 2: so interesting about space? It's just so mysterious. I can't 7 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 2: see anything but starts. But there's so much more to know. 8 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 2: I wonder what it would be like to be in space. 9 00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 4: Welcome to Stories for Kids by Lingo Kids, where we 10 00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:45,319 Speaker 4: discover fascinating facts about the world around us and the 11 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 4: fun of play learning. Join us as we learn about 12 00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 4: a day in space. Does gravity work. 13 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:51,800 Speaker 2: The same way? 14 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 4: How does it affect everyday things like sleep or drinking juice? 15 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 4: Let's go on a space journey in today's episode. Wow, Lisa, 16 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 4: you really do seem interested in space lately. 17 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just so different. 18 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 4: Imagine what it's like to be an astronaut living in space. 19 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,400 Speaker 2: Whoa, there are people that live in space. 20 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, astronauts spend a lot of months living on the ISS, 21 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 4: the International Space Station. 22 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 1: Oh oh, why don't we pretend to be astronauts in space? 23 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 3: Great idea, Elliot. 24 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,119 Speaker 2: Let's go to the International Space Station. 25 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: Okay, everyone, we're here, Lisa, where are we moving? 26 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 2: So slowly. You like that because of gravity. 27 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 3: Well, more like a lack of gravity. 28 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: What's gravity? 29 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 3: Gravity is a force of attraction. Really, big objects. 30 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: Have a lot of gravity, like Earth. 31 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 4: It's what makes us stay on the ground rather than 32 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 4: floating up to the sky. 33 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,239 Speaker 1: So when we throw a ball up in the air 34 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: and it falls back down, it's because of gravity. 35 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 4: Exactly in space, far from Earth, there is no gravity. 36 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: So astronauts in the space station float because there's no gravity. 37 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 4: Well, actually, the International Space Station is close enough to 38 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 4: feel Earth's gravity, but it feels as if there's no 39 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 4: gravity because the station is moving so fast. The station 40 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 4: is constantly speeding around the Earth round and round it goes, and. 41 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 2: This makes it seem like there's no gravity. That's right. 42 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 2: That sounds fun and scary. 43 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 4: And it also creates a lot of challenges. What do 44 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 4: you mean, Well, try drinking this pretend cup of juice. 45 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 4: What do you think is going to happen when you 46 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 4: try to drink it? 47 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: Hmm, well, what will taste yummy? 48 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: Of course, I think that the juice is going to 49 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: float away. Billy says that the juice will also fall 50 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: to a liquid ball. 51 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 4: But why yes, Billy, that's a great point in space, 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 4: water and other liquids flow in spheres or round blobs 53 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 4: like small. 54 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: Balls because there's no gravity exactly. 55 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,880 Speaker 3: Oh, don't let it float away? 56 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: Where is it? Billy? 57 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 4: Billy is telling us to look at the amazing view outside. 58 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 2: Why Earth looks beautiful at night? Oh? 59 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 4: Look now the sun is rising over Earth again. It's 60 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 4: morning again. 61 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: That was grid. 62 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, astronauts ses sixteen w sunrises and sunsets every day. 63 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: That's a lot of good mornings and good nights. But 64 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: why well, look outside the space station and notice how 65 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: it looks like. 66 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: The sun is moving fast. 67 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 4: But it's actually us on the station that are moving 68 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 4: really fast. The station goes around the Earth every ninety minutes, 69 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,799 Speaker 4: traveling at about seventeen five hundred miles per hour. 70 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: Wow, that sounds really nice. 71 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 3: It's very fast. 72 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 4: Indeed, Billy is asking if it's true that astronauts. 73 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 3: Age more slowly than other people, why. 74 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: Would they age more slowly. Isn't time the same for everyone? 75 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 4: You would think so if we start to stop watches 76 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 4: at the same time and count for a whole minute, 77 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 4: they should stop at the same time, right, Yeah, of course, 78 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 4: But the truth is that time can move more slowly 79 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 4: depending on how fast you're going or how much gravity 80 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 4: is near you. 81 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,919 Speaker 2: So time is different for someone in space. 82 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 4: Yes, in places with low or no gravity, time passes 83 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,359 Speaker 4: more quickly. So a minute would be shorter for someone 84 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 4: in space than for someone on Earth. 85 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: Wait, since there's. 86 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: Less gravity in space, wouldn't astronauts age fast or not slower? 87 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 4: Good observation, Lisa. But it's not just gravity that affects time. 88 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 4: Remember how I mentioned that it can also depend on 89 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,239 Speaker 4: how fast you're going. Yeah, Well, for someone that's going 90 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 4: really fast, time passes more slowly. 91 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 3: It's a similar effect as having a lot of gravity. 92 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: So time passes more slowly for astronauts because the. 93 00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 2: Space station is going super fast. 94 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 4: That's right, that's why they age more slowly. But it's 95 00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 4: such a tiny difference, only a few milliseconds. It's still 96 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 4: cool to think about, though, right. 97 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, space is stranger than I thought. 98 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 3: It definitely takes some getting used to In every way. 99 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: It sounds fun, but I didn't know space could be 100 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 1: so challenging. 101 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 4: There's so much to know and we're just beginning to 102 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 4: scratch the surface. 103 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 2: Do you think we can visit space one day? Yeah? 104 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 2: I want to flow among the stars and drink dust bowls. 105 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 4: Who knows the future is full of possibilities. For now, 106 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: we can dream and learn. 107 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 3: Well, Lingo kids, listeners, we learned all about space today. 108 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 4: We pretended to be astronauts living on the International Space 109 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 4: Station and we got to experience what daily life in 110 00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 4: space is like. We hope you'll keep learning about space. 111 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 4: There's so much to know, and don't forget to join 112 00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 4: us next episode to continue play learning together. 113 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 3: Hm
