1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:05,319 Speaker 1: Job mission with Jones and Amanda. So last week Richard Branson, billionaire, 2 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: went into space with his rocket ship called Galactic. Few 3 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:14,280 Speaker 1: people well in one person in particular, Jeff Bezos, former 4 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,640 Speaker 1: head of Amazon, said, well, you didn't go high enough. 5 00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 1: You didn't go past the Carmen line, or the Carmen 6 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,439 Speaker 1: Miranda line, as you say, which is the internationally recognized 7 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: boundary of space. One hundred k's into space. This is 8 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,159 Speaker 1: what Jeff Bezos has done. He's the richest man on 9 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: the planet, and yesterday he was off the planet. I 10 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 1: don't know dollar fifty, but he he had an interesting 11 00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: group with him on his flight. Was the oldest person 12 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 1: who has ever been into space. Her name is Wally Funk. Wallyfunk, 13 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: How old is Wally? An eighty two year old pioneer 14 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: of the space race. She was one of the pioneering 15 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: test pilots but never got into space, so she went. 16 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: This is interesting too. The youngest person who ever went 17 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: into space was on that craft yesterday, Oliver Damon. He's 18 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: an eighteen year old old student. Oliver took the place 19 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: of a still anonymous twenty eight million dollar winning bidder 20 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: at an auction. Someone bid to go up, but said 21 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: there was scheduling conflicts and couldn't go. Too busy mum 22 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: was putting on a lamb roast. He couldn't go into space. 23 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: So Oliver went and Jeff was also accompanied by his 24 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: brother Mark Bezos. So that's the group that went up. 25 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: Jeff's mum would have said, make sure you take your brother, brother, 26 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: take your brother, Take your brother. You're going to go 27 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: into space. Do you know Jeff's worth two hundred and 28 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,960 Speaker 1: five billion dollars? Whoa even more than the Arabi shiki 29 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: guy who's the richest man in the world, The Arab 30 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: shiki guy whose name you don't even know. I don't 31 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: know a guys. So what happened here, this is quite remarkable, 32 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: is that this was a very clean spaceship. The exhaust 33 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: is water with minimal impact on the environment. Is it 34 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: is as environmental as it can be. So he's insisting 35 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: on doing all of those things. And mantle is anything 36 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: that's The rocket went. I don't know how fast it went. Yeah, 37 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: thirty seven hundred kilometers an hour. Wow, that's quick. That's 38 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 1: pretty coot. That's why I drive to work faster. That is, 39 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,639 Speaker 1: as when we put the sigma into six gear. That's right. Well, 40 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: they took off and you know what they so the 41 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: capsules separated from its booster. It crossed the Carmen line. 42 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: Have you got some of the launch? Yeah, here's how 43 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: it went. Command under the story too. What gold Jeff, go, Mark, Golli, 44 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:41,799 Speaker 1: go Holliver. You are gold space pretty cool, dramatic. So 45 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: it was only in space for a short period of time. 46 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: The total mission time from launch to capsule landing. So 47 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: their capsules separated from the rocket, the rocket landed exactly, 48 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 1: it was as it was supposed to, and then they 49 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: floated down to Earth. All of that was ten minutes 50 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: and ten seconds. Amazing, isn't it. So when they were 51 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: up in space, it's not like NASA missions where they 52 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: do science and stuff. Here's what they did while they 53 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: are in space for that short period of time. Here 54 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: look here they threw ping pong balls and skittles at 55 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: each other. It's a frat party in the space. Didn't 56 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: they have like an in flight mona Lisa to eat 57 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: you're referring, of course, to the recent petition petition to 58 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: have Jeff Bezos eat the mona Lisa. Yeah, I thought 59 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: we could have taken a money along it. Well. I 60 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 1: like what Midler tweeted about this yesterday, said, Jeff Bezos 61 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: going to the edge of space. Will the rocket bring 62 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: him back home? Or will it drop him at the 63 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: wrong house and then say the record show he'd been 64 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: delivered there. It is Jonesy and Amanda's Doomnation.
