1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: Job mission with Jones and Amanda.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 2: It happened.

3
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: We spoke to William Shatner just a couple of weeks

4
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 1: ago on this show and I said, I've been reading

5
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 1: that you want to go into space, and Jeff Bezos

6
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: is giving you a chance to do it. And he said,

7
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: I can't say too much, but if we speak again,

8
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: I'll talk about it. Then you know, you'd think a

9
00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: year later he goes into space. No, two weeks later

10
00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 1: he goes into space. He has returned from being the

11
00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,640
Speaker 1: oldest human in space. He's ninety years old. He had

12
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 1: a brief but successful mission on Blue Origin. So when

13
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: Virgin went up with Richard Transon, that was a plane,

14
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: wasn't it.

15
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 3: More or less?

16
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: This is a rocket and this then you have to

17
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: separate from the rocket and you come down in a capsure.

18
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: It's a full astronaut experience. And also it goes past

19
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 1: the Carmen line, which is determined to be the boundary

20
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:55,960
Speaker 1: of space.

21
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 3: That's what one hundred k's about it.

22
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: That's one hundred k's above the Earth. And that this

23
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: capsule that William was in reached a maximum altitude it

24
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: says sixty six and a half miles what's that about?

25
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 3: That would be probably about eighty miles.

26
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: Eighty k's, eighty k's, one hundred k's and then that

27
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 1: so say rounded up two hundred k's into space.

28
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 2: How to give me an idea of how far away

29
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: that is? What's what's something?

30
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 4: Here's a Newcastle probably give or take twenty k's.

31
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: And he was quite emotional to go to Newcastle.

32
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 3: I get it that last time I went to Newcastle

33
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,279
Speaker 3: I was at Fanny's. I enjoyed it very.

34
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:37,280
Speaker 2: Much, well he was. William was quite overwhelmed.

35
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: As we know he's played Captain Kirk for all those

36
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: years on Star Trek. To see the real thing he

37
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: found quite overwhelming.

38
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 3: What you have given me.

39
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 1: Is the most profound experience. IQ announced, I'm so filled

40
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: with emotional but what just happened?

41
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: I just it's extraordinary, extraordinary. It's excited about that. Although

42
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 3: he is ninety, you could take him to Westfield and

43
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 3: you get the same reaction.

44
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: I saw a funny memes a picture of what's that

45
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: thing Planet of the Apes and said we should all

46
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: dress like this when women shatt and returns from space.

47
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 3: That's happened, what's happened?

48
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 4: I did like that, but He did go on about

49
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 4: it because for me, space travel, I just you know,

50
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 4: I get it. But you know, we've been doing it

51
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 4: for some time, but we haven't moved forward have Well.

52
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 1: What's interesting, though, is that often there's scientists to go

53
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: up and they're not the chattist of Kathy's. You and

54
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: I have interviewed astronauts and they're not gushy people. But

55
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,119
Speaker 1: they have all said that when they see the roundness

56
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: of Earth, they see how unified it is, and they

57
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: have an epiphany. They have a profound experience seeing it

58
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: as a hole.

59
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 3: And William articulated that but.

60
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: To see the blue cover whip and now you're stirring

61
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,920
Speaker 1: at the blacks, that's the thing.

62
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 3: That is the thing, that is the thing. He said,

63
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 3: it was life changing. I hope I never recover from this.

64
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:20,239
Speaker 1: I hope that I can maintain, but I feel now

65
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:21,799
Speaker 1: I don't want to lose it.

66
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 3: He also went on to say, this picture yourself in

67
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 3: a boat on a river.

68
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: There's doctor zayas was tangerine trees.

69
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,680
Speaker 3: It's a marmolate sky. That was after we went to

70
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 3: the food court at Westfield.

71
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 2: You know, I'd be happy for a food court right

72
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 2: about now.

73
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 3: I'd like one of those all you can eat Chinese feasts.

74
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 2: Oh yess
