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.

RUSSIA TO BUILD A GIGANTIC 'CRYOGENIC ARK' OF ALL LIVING THINGS - Duration: 3:12.

RUSSIA TO BUILD A GIGANTIC 'CRYOGENIC ARK� OF ALL LIVING THINGS BY 2018

Moscow State University to create a modern day Noah�s Ark.

Moscow State University has been granted a billion rubles, the largest ever scientific

grant in Russian history, to collect and store the DNA over every single living and extinct

creature to have ever walked the Earth.

This is planned to be the world�s first database containing such a comprehensive reserve

of biological information about the species of the Earth.

The project has been termed �Noah�s Ark� after the Biblical story by the rector of

Moscow State University, Viktor Sadivnichy.

He has explained to the media that the ambitious project will involve a databank which will

store comprehensive information about every single creature that has ever lived on Earth

and will be accessible to students and to the public in the form of a giant ark, approximately

430 square kilometers in size.

Some of the specimens will be held in cryogenically frozen form, whereas others will have their

DNA extracted and stored in petri-dishes.

There will also be information banks where DNA is not necessarily available, he explains.

The ark, which is expected to be finished in 2018, will be housed in one of the central

campuses at the university.

NOT QUITE THE BIBLICAL NOAH�S ARK, BUT POSSIBLY THE NEXT BEST THING According to the university�s

press office, the database will involve biomaterials collected from various branches of Moscow

State University including the Botanical Garden, the Anthropological Museum, the Zoological

Museum and others.

In addition to involving established academics from various departments of the university,

it will also involve extensive input from the younger generation of scientists affiliated

with Moscow State.

It is also hoped that assistance will be forthcoming for the project from other places across the

world.

This is not the first time that a country has embarked on such an incredibly ambitious

project.

In the United Kingdom, the Frozen Ark project is still ongoing.

The British project involves the preservation of the genetic information of all endangered

life forms on the planet Earth.

This project is referred to as the animal equivalent of the Millennium Seed Bank which

plans to collect a specimen of all of the world�s seeds.

However, this latest project is considered to be the most ambitious of all the biological

data collection enterprises, and the historical significance of the Ark is not lost on the

staff at Moscow State University.

�If it�s realized, this will be a leap in Russian history as the first nation to

create an actual Noah�s Ark of sorts, � the rector said.

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!
