Hello and welcome to Ireland.
Today I'm looking at a rather special knife,
this is the Boker Tree brand trapper,
the steel is c73 carbon steel,
the handles are made from beer barrels
It's a rather pretty knife
and it's also special because it has been sent to me by a You Tube friend.
He actually sent me two knives
but this is the one we're looking at today.
Let's give you a closer look at this
Okay, so here we have the Boker Tree Brand trapper close up.
It's a very lovely knife
The wooden handles are very beautiful in my opinion
Everything about this knife is very well put together.
its very crisp and clean and very well, well made.
It's also very special to me because as I said
it has been sent to me by a youtube friend
It's not every day something like this happens
and I feel greatly honored and privileged
that he would take the time and trouble to send this half the way around the world to me.
Okay, so the weather forecast for today is not good
so we need to move hard and fast now to build a shelter
We're going to build a shelter to test this knife out.
so let's get at it guys, okay!
Okay, like a sniper in Stalingrad,
I've had to relocate
my original campsite was about six hundred metres that way
My rushes, that I'm going to use for thatch are about two hundred metres that way
and the intervening ground was just too rough and too wild
to carry the rushes over
so I've had to come here
I'll just give you a quick close up of my frame
I just wanted to show you one thing that I find useful
These supports, I have tapped into the ground
and I tied them together under this
so these are now acting as bipods
rather than resting them on this
horizontal pole, and putting weight on it
they're now supporting it
so it makes a very rigid and well supported shelter
okay?
One thing my friend wondered was
if this blade
would be good for filleting fish
or filleting fish if you speak Americanese
Well, there's only one way to find out.
Now the only fish my fishmonger had
were sea bass.
so that's what I'm using here
I would say yes
it works pretty well as a filleting knife
or filleting knife
okay
I won't even try to guess how Bear Grylls might season his food
but I'm going to use salt and pepper
This living off the land, you know
It's really tough and hard
You wouldn't like it very much
Nope
you wouldn't like it at all
This is hard going
Dyson
Eh Dicey
that was a very tasty feed
very nice!
Just getting a brew on guys
At least this time we have a waterproof shelter
We had some nice rain roll through
and it shed it pretty well
so we're grand
I've been watching tom in the woods
Hi Tom
and his experiments with his brew kit
and I saw that he was using one of these enamel mugs
I got this one in Halford's
for two euro's
I was using a big stainless steel mug
it's about five hundred mil's
it's a bit big, its actually a small cook kit
It's a bit big if you just want a cup of tea or a cup of coffee
this one is about, is a little over three hundred mils
and it's a more compact size to carry around
And I made a small alcohol stove for it.
I made it so the flame doesn't burn too high
it's a reasonably small flame
and that keeps it from scorching the mug too much
we're not too far off the boil now
Or off the hot enough mark
I won't bring it to the boil
she's just about to bubble, I don't want it too hot
don't want to spill it either
I like this instant cappuccinp
you've got sugar, milk and the whole lot all in one
I've made the sapling bed again
and it's not working out quite as well this time
because I'm on a slight slope this way
and I'm on a slope that way
and I've had to tie it together with twine and what have you
It works better on the flat
still makes a reasonably comfy bed
Going to get this into me
Now comes the tricky part, getting into the sleeping bag
I'll get bunked down for the night, okay?
Good morning
Well the shelter worked fairly well last night
but my love affair with the sapling bed or the stick bed is about at an end
it was a pain in the ass last night
because I'm sloping this way, and sloping downhill as well
it kept moving about
and I had to tie it in place, but it's still not great
also
we're so used to sleeping on a perfectly level bed
that when you're on a slope, I really found the slope last night
and really noticed it
Dyson's already up and about
so I'm just going to have some hot chocolate
and we'll get on the road
Just to be perfectly honest
for the rushes
I used my old beater knife
cutting rushes is very hard on edge
and I didn't have time to be messing about sharpening knives
I knew it was going to take the edge
so I used this
for the rushes
The little Boker knife
I found was very very nice, very good
It's a very well made, very pretty knife
very well put together
It's a good sharp knife as well
Now, it has blunted a little
but it did quite a lot of work
and it did, you know, we were cutting fairly fast and hard
and anyway
you have your second blade to back up
This is my first, ahm
This is the first time I've come across a Boker knife
and I'm quite impressed with them
I'm going to be having a long hard look at Boker knives from now on
Take a good look at all their models
Quite an impressive little knife
And to my YouTube friend who wishes to remain anonymous
thank you very very much for this, I really appreciate it
You're going to have to give me a hint of what to send back
otherwise I'll have to send you an autographed photo of myself for your mantle piece
That would be nice!
anyway
I'm going to have my hot chocolate, get home and have some breakfast
before this guy goes chasing deer or something
stay Dyson!
Thanks for watching guys,
Boker knives are lovely
Bye bye.

RUSSIA AND THE US WILL BUILD A DEEP SPACE GATEWAY ORBITING THE M - Duration: 4:02.
RUSSIA AND THE US WILL BUILD A DEEP SPACE GATEWAY ORBITING THE MOON
The United States and Russia will work together on building A Moon Base.
There have been lots of rumors going around that Russia and the US are going to join forces
to build a lunar base.
Roscosmos, the head of the space organization, along with NASA have now revealed a partnership
agreement, and they said that both countries have the same common vision for human exploration.
LUNAR ORBIT BUILDING TO START BY 2020 They said that the US and Russia are going to cooperate
on a Moon program and they gave the name Deep Space Gateway a mention specifically.
This is the base that NASA has been planning on building in lunar orbit and they plan on
doing so by 2020.
The release from the two set a 2020 goal as the start of the project.
The press release also stated other internal partners are now considering signing into
the lunar base project.
The statement to come from Roscosmos outlined a plan in rough for the creation of international
technical standards for the space station on the Moon.
It talked about life support systems along with docking ports that will have the base
of a design by the Russians.
This is down to the fact that the Russians have a great deal more experience in regards
to the running of a space station along with the life support systems on-board the ISS
being in the Zvezda Russian section.
US WANTED TO WORK WITH RUSSIA FROM THE START At the moment the ISS has ports that are different
from the multiple vehicles that are docked within it.
The Russian Soyuz capsule makes use of a docking port that has a different style than that
of the space shuttle.
The US had to put in adapters so as to convert the Shuttle docking ports along with allowing
private crafts such as the SpaceX Dragon to connect with them.
The US said that the wanted to work with the Russians from the start instead of carrying
out plans of their own and then getting the Russian on-board at the last minute.
NASA is relying on the heavy lift rocket by the name of SLS when it comes to building
the Deep Space Gateway, however, they are only going to launch it once a year and this
is something that really does not seem to be all that feasible.
However, the statement from Roscosmos has shed some light on that as the rockets of
Russia are going to help with construction.
US AND RUSSIA WILL WORK TOGETHER DESPITE TENSIONS The US and Russia working together is a big
deal, for a lot of reasons as they are working as one even though there is a great deal of
tension between them.
It may mean that the countries will be less likely to turn to hostilities outright.
The aims of NASA have not been very clear up to this point and haven�t been for a
long time.
They did reveal goals that are very ambitious but they did not have a plan that was clear
on just how they achieved it and without any budget to be able to support it.
The organization has slowly been scaling back since that time, however, thanks to international
agreement with cooperation it does now look like the Deep Space Gateway is really going
to happen.
Due to this they have international partners and so Congress might not cancel the project,
bear in mind that the International Space Station managed to get passed with just one
single vote.

How to Build a Teleporter with Aliens - Duration: 3:51.
Suppose we're working with aliens who live near Alpha Centauri to build a wormhole teleporter
so we can go visit them - for dinner, or interstellar diplomacy, or whatever. Of course we'll
need to be able to talk with them about what to make each side of the portal out of, how
big to make the various pieces, and so on. But since we've never been to Alpha Centauri,
and they've never been here, this is tricky – I mean, if you tell me to make you an
arc that's 300 cubits long, and I don't know what a cubit is, you'll probably get
an arc that's not exactly what you were hoping for .
So we'll have to build, from the ground up, an easily sharable way of communicating
about the universe, where distances and such are based on ideas, rather than specific artifacts
. We'd probably start with basic materials, you know, like how instead of sending a vial
with a chunk of lithium in it across interstellar space, we can just say "use the atom that
has 3 protons, 3 neutrons, and 3 electrons." Water would be "the molecule that's a
combination of one atom with 8 protons and two atoms with 1 proton." And so on.
Once we have materials down, we can do clocks – we just tell the aliens that if they take
the atom with 55 protons and 78 neutrons , make it emit a photon of light in a certain way
, and wait for that photon to oscillate 9,192,631,770 times: that's what we call one second.
Once we have clocks, we can do distances: just tell the aliens to see how far light
goes in one 299,792,458th of a second – that's what we call a meter.
But this is when we would run into a massive roadblock – literally. Pretty much the
rest of our communication about the universe requires knowing what mass is, and what we
currently call a kilogram isn't an idea we can just tell distant aliens, the way we
can say "the atom with 3 protons". A kilogram is just a particular lump of metal sitting
in a particular room in a particular place on our planet , and if you want to know how
many kilograms of say, antimatter, you have, you have to take it there and weigh them against
each other . In the very near future, we're going to
settle on a more sensible way of talking about mass, so instead of saying "in order to
build this teleporter you have to come to the part of earth with good cheese so we can
show you our shiny lump of metal," , we'll either be telling the aliens to just get a
pile of something like 21.5253873 septillion of the atom that has 14 protons and 14 neutrons,
or we'll tell them to weigh how much mass an atom or molecule loses after emitting a
photon of light that oscillates roughly 135.6392534 septillion septillion times each second. One
of these two concepts will be our new kilogram, and even though the pile of atoms option sounds
simpler in principle, it's actually kind of harder and more expensive to do in practice.
Whichever way it is, once we have our new way of communicating about mass as an idea
instead of an object, we'll be able to build our wormhole teleporter with the alpha centaurians
. And then we can bring them here to earth, have dinner, and afterwards, show them the
chunk of metal that used to be THE THING that we used to talk about the mass of all other
things. Before I tell you about this video's sponsor,
Skillshare, I want to tell you a story. I recently turned 30, but back when I was in
high school, I was super into computer visual effects and sci-fi movies – however, there
were very few easy ways to learn how to do visual effects yourself. I mean, consumer
access to digital video cameras was still very new, personal computers were just starting
to be good enough for legit video editing, and youtube didn't even exist. I had to
scrounge in vfx chat-rooms, dvd special features, and arcane blogs to learn enough to make my
lord-of-the-rings and star-wars parodies. Today at age 30, the situation is night and
day – you can shoot and edit high definition footage on a telephone, for crying out loud!
And it's much easier to learn how to use more powerful tools like After Effects and
Photoshop – services like Skillshare, for example, now allow you to find tens of thousands
of video tutorials on design, photography, programming, visual effects, and more. And
Skillshare is offering 30% off a year-long premium membership for the first 200 people
who go to skl.sh/minutephysics30 – again, that's skl.sh/minutephysics30 for 30% off
– and it works even if you didn't just turn 30!
