1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: And I'm pretty excited because I've got some fantastic students

2
00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,080
Speaker 1: in the studio with me. Now, you might recall just

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 1: a few months ago we spoke to three year twelve

4
00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: students from Darwin High School who are going on to

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: compete in a science competition in the United States after

6
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: winning an award at the International Science Fair in Brisbane.

7
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,439
Speaker 1: They were hoping to raise around sixty thousand dollars for

8
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: this trip to Los Angeles in May. They join me

9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 1: in the studio right now. I've got Manishi Trapura, good

10
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 1: morning to you.

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 2: Good morning to you too.

12
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: We've got Vincent Mondol, Good morning to you, Vincent, good morning.

13
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 1: And we have also got Niaz Hassan good.

14
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 2: Morning, Well, good morning.

15
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,760
Speaker 1: It is wonderful to have you three in the studio. Now,

16
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: verst Off, how is the fundraising going? How much have

17
00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: we got left to raise?

18
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 3: So we are six thousand away from a thirty k goal,

19
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 3: not sixty ks so.

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, so.

21
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 3: Only six k so and we're really.

22
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 2: Hoping that we reached the goal by the end of

23
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:07,040
Speaker 2: this month.

24
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: Oh, let's try and overpass the goal. That would be

25
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: absolutely amazing. Now to everybody out there listening this morning,

26
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: who maybe can't remember exactly what you guys are going

27
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 1: away for. Remind us about this competition overseays.

28
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 4: Well, we're going to a competition called the International Science

29
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 4: and Engineering Fair, which statistically is the largest pre college

30
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 4: science fan the world, being together almost eighteen hundred students

31
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 4: from eighty different companies worldwide, and you're competing for canas

32
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 4: innovative opportunities.

33
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 2: We're working for.

34
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 4: Internships with big companies, scholarships to the biggest universities in

35
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 4: the world, and it's a platform to really showcase what

36
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 4: science can do for the world.

37
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: Like, it's an amazing opportunity for you guys as well,

38
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: isn't it.

39
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 5: Yep, definitely great opportunity for like minded students to come

40
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 5: together and just like, Yeah.

41
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: I look at the three of you and I think

42
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: to myself, the Northern Territory's future is bright, right, I

43
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: think how amazing that we've got young fellas like you

44
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,839
Speaker 1: who are working so hard. You've reached the point where

45
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: you've been selected to go overseas to take part in

46
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: this It like, it's absolutely incredible.

47
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 3: We never thought that we were going to get to

48
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,600
Speaker 3: this stage because initially for us it was just like.

49
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 2: Oh, we got to go to go on a trip

50
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 2: to Brisbane or fun. That's the well.

51
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 3: Then we found out about the We found about this

52
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 3: this Science and Engineering fair yep. So we found the

53
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 3: Australian Science and Engineering Fair. We submitted our project. We

54
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 3: were not hoping for much but but through through luck,

55
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 3: through I guess, through our work, through the hard work,

56
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,359
Speaker 3: we got selected for the international one. And we're really

57
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 3: hoping that we produce something really great that will hopefully

58
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 3: place at least something on the international stage.

59
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 2: You know, it's through your innovation and your brinds.

60
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: You know you've done something incredible. Tell us a little

61
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,800
Speaker 1: bit more about the project again.

62
00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 5: So what our project aims. The main principle that's being

63
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 5: discussed are explored in our project is apparent temperature yep.

64
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 5: So when we go on our weather apps and we

65
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 5: check the outside temperature, normally there's the actual temperature and

66
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 5: the right below it there's a feels like temperature or

67
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 5: the apparent temperature. The apparent temperature is the temperature that's

68
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 5: perceived by us with the combination of not only the

69
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 5: actual temperature but also air velocity, humidity and other ambient factors.

70
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 5: So we wanted to manipulate this in a classroom scenario

71
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 5: where we would turn on the ceiling fans and the

72
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 5: air conditioners, where the ceiling fans would increase the air

73
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 5: velocity and they're decreasing their parent temperature so it would

74
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 5: feel cooler, while the air conditioners could be set at

75
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 5: a higher temperature setting, so it would consume less energy

76
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 5: and therefore it met less carbon emissions.

77
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 1: It's so practical as well, Like, it's such a practical

78
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: thing to hopefully be able to do, and you would

79
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 1: think not only saving energy but also potentially saving money

80
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: for school.

81
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 3: Explanted how much money the school would save if we

82
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 3: implemented this on a school wide basis, so one hundred

83
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 3: and fifty thousand for a large school like dow In

84
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 3: High School, and that that will potentially be one T

85
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 3: shirt and an extra edmind staff.

86
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 1: So that's it practical, that's such a great way of

87
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:41,839
Speaker 1: looking at us.

88
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 3: And if we implemented this across the whole anti school system,

89
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 3: we found that it would be around a million dollars

90
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 3: for the Department of Education as a spare and.

91
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 1: Extra teachers and extra support stuff, right, Like that's a

92
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: good thing.

93
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 4: Well, the thoughts as well, which obviously for students is

94
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 4: a mathive thing up here. Yeah, it is.

95
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: It's such a massive thing. So how's that like, how's

96
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: the rest of the school feeling about you guys and

97
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,280
Speaker 1: what you're doing? Are they pretty proud?

98
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:09,280
Speaker 2: Surely hope?

99
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 1: So they should be right.

100
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,640
Speaker 4: It's going around a lot on Media Channel's long road

101
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 4: of mouth. So obviously it's a really big thing up here,

102
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,719
Speaker 4: especially in school and around the anti. So at this

103
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 4: point we're just hoping that we can get a good

104
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 4: result out of it and then we can make the

105
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:25,720
Speaker 4: anti powder well.

106
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: And we just need that six thousand extra dollars, but

107
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 1: it's not a huge amount in the grand scheme of things.

108
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: And when you look at the money that you project,

109
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: you know could potentially save across the board as well.

110
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: It's it is a great thing. How can people donate

111
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 1: if they are keen if they're listening this morning? I

112
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 1: know I said it last time you're on, but if

113
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 1: there's a business listening that's maybe thinking, do you know what,

114
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: I have got one thousand dollars that I'm able to donate?

115
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: How can they do so?

116
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 3: So you can go on Google search up my name

117
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 3: Minishi ractor Trapura and then it will come up with

118
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 3: a go fund me and if you want to contact me,

119
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 3: you can send a message through that platform and it

120
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 3: will send a message straight to my email and we

121
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 3: can get in touch.

122
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 1: All right now, Minishi, you better tell us how to

123
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 1: spell your name to anybody listening this morning that is thinking,

124
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 1: oh hang on, maybe not sure.

125
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 3: So mo ands hi Yeah, space r A n ghak

126
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 3: space trip u r A. If you just search up

127
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 3: my name, the first link will be their go funding.

128
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: We'll make sure we try and share it as well

129
00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: so it's nice and easy.

130
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 2: Or just get in contact with Dowan High School.

131
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 1: Yes, that's a good idea too. I mean, any of

132
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: those different ways. If they ring us here at the

133
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 1: station as well, we're really happy to direct them to

134
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 1: you guys to try to help you get over the line.

135
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: I think it's so important. I think it's so important

136
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 1: that we support young people doing great stuff. And you

137
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,920
Speaker 1: guys are doing some great stuff. What are you all

138
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,799
Speaker 1: thinking post school that you want to do for a living?

139
00:06:54,720 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 4: I'll start then, I'm hoping to Percy Medicine onwards.

140
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:01,560
Speaker 1: Awesome.

141
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:06,040
Speaker 4: So I've got a couple of options down South obviously,

142
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 4: because I'm a footballer, as well. So obviously I'm going

143
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 4: to try balance studying medicine playing football is going to

144
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 4: be a pretty big ask, but we only live once.

145
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: I might as well go all.

146
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 1: In absolutely give it all a crack, mate, I think

147
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: you have to. You're young, your fit, you're healthy, you

148
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: can do everything. Give it all a go. What about Umanishi?

149
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 3: I want to do finance and economics degree, hopefully overseas,

150
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: but most it's most likely looking like it's going to

151
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 3: be here. So yeah, and then after that, I want

152
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,640
Speaker 3: to go into investment making if possible.

153
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 1: Wow, what about you ns?

154
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 5: So it's always been a dream of mine to attend

155
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 5: to one of the top twenty schools in the in

156
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 5: the US. So I do dream of pursuing engineering in

157
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 5: the US, and my tea is my dream. But you know,

158
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 5: any union in the US that could potentially so it

159
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 5: provide me with a full scholarship, That's what I'm going for.

160
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 5: So this ICF event would be a great opportunity to

161
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,760
Speaker 5: get in touch with the UNI professors and even potentially

162
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 5: receive scholarship offers.

163
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 1: So it's actually it is actually a really tangible thing

164
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,000
Speaker 1: as well for you three to be able to get

165
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: there and to be in front of those different schools,

166
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: to be in front of, you know, some of these

167
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: incredible people on the other side of the world, to

168
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: potentially open you up for career opportunities. University opportunities, definitely.

169
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 3: So last year two people actually received scholarships from US universities.

170
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: So the people that went from Australia.

171
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,920
Speaker 3: Received scholarships at two top ten universities in America.

172
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 2: So we're hoping to emulate that for us as well.

173
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 1: We'll tell you what if that's not enough for territories

174
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: listening this morning to think that they you know that

175
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: they actually want to get behind you guys and donate

176
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: some money. I don't know what is So I think

177
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: you know the fact that you are all reaching for

178
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: the absolute stars and you're able to do this, like

179
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 1: as a territory, and I'm really proud of the three

180
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: of you and what you're doing. I think it's incredible

181
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 1: and I hope that it all goes really well. But
