 And we're at the Australian Space Research Conference and I don't know how to do one of these without the laptop So I'm just like trying to find somewhere to place the iPad. It's not gonna stay you have some We're totally not fine Oh Have you Oh And One of my favorite sessions was the women in space plenary, which was the first of its kind in this conference This is why this is why I need real Wi-Fi like I'm so sorry Yeah Coming up on YouTube And then we can get me a bit of Wi-Fi to make these experiences better today Yeah, so we yesterday morning We had our first ever women in space and all the discussion which was incredible because there were lots of women from all different fields of science at here at this space conference and they presented on different aspects of female participation in the space industry and STEM and It was actually quite factual being a science space conference and we're all sort of data-based and we like that and so that really translated into the talks that they had and It seems that objectively females are missing out on STEM in Australia and probably the rest But we are actually missing out because of stereotypes and So it gives me hope that We will have more encouragements and our young STEM girls If you check out Do you want to hold So I'm actually a medical student and I want to be a space doctor That's very Aspirational most people would say but I have always been interested in space scientists, but I also wanted to help So I started medicine I can combine the two things and so I am trying to do that Hopefully by the time I graduate and finish my junior doctor years I think it's going to be a bigger field as we go. I think we need space doctors. There's a place for everyone in space medicine included and we're going to need space doctors in the future Sometimes I wish there was a space doctor on my space mission that I went on about another story So the topic that I want to talk about in that session is about space Is there anything we need to be worried about when we're going to space and need to take medicine? Oh, so firstly I've established that diseases do happen in space and we need to be worried about them I personally did a research review on infectious diseases in space because not only does the space environment perfectly human It also affects the micro. Micro can actually get stronger at a very quick rate and become more resistant to antibiotics and other traditional ways of curing the disease So we need to make sure that our astronauts are healthy and that our drugs work But in order to have our drugs work we need to figure out how they change in space Does the radiation affect the drug? Does movement, vibration, anti-gravity, microgravity, does that affect the drug? There's some evidence to say yes and therefore we need to figure out how to make those drugs be more robust in space Like in the last mission, without degrading and without decreasing in efficiency for our astronauts There's nothing worse than that Shout out to any cow that you, we need more females in this program, we generally agree I know, thanks for engaging Yeah, but essentially what I was saying before is we need our drugs to be efficacious And because we're going on a long duration mission there might be an opportunity for institute resource utilisation Which is, I think, my S9U, when we go to the moon there are actually some excipients or ingredients on the moon That we can grab and use to make drugs So we don't have to worry everyone, but we need to be able to use the questions possible Are you saying that we can use the lunar dust to be like the fillers and the finders For making the tablets that we'll use to enhance the species? Absolutely, yeah Shout out to TheoryR, I saw at TheoryR I'm saying hello before as well Any idea what nations would do this heavy? I'm not at university right now, so I'm, hey Lippie, hey Jared, open from Norway Is that a Tesla, is that a Tesla necklace? Yes it is, somebody noticed That's amazing Also can we just like take a minute to see how amazing this place is? Oh it's a dress by the way Every day this week V doesn't want a different space dress and it's amazing So just like bow down to the head of space fashion It's amazing There are a few different role models of space fashion Most of them are women, shout out to the women Space dresses Space dresses Lippie, we need to, maybe we could start a different world We could talk you out and leave space The fashion industry is few people drawn up And if you know who knows it might be the salient space as well Because nobody wants to wear a boring suit every day Andrew said how do you test those medicines in space? How do you test the medicines in space? You, I did a review on this as well Specifically due to radiation So a couple of studies How do you test drugs like that? Do you send them on spacecraft going out on orbit traveling outside the asteroid belt? That is a really good question I try to do a literature review on how space radiation Radiation affects medications However, there's a lot of data yet on drugs going beyond the Van Allen belt We've only gone studies on the ISS within the Van Allen belts They did find a slight degradation on the ISS But we know that as soon as we go beyond the Van Allen belt That data is going to change We haven't got that data yet Lippie said it's difficult to pick out voices against the background I'm sorry, we're trying to talk really loud We're talking really loud over here Probably not the best conference venue But yeah, we're trying, I'm sorry And thank you, we really appreciate you tuning in Even though it's hard to see it And here And also the internet sucks And the word balance is changing a lot That's okay Yeah, that's fine I can't believe I have 26 people watching us This is nothing, we actually have like 300 It's probably because of this really bad day It's because I'm not Elon Musk, that's why No, come on Alright Everyone in the chatroom, comment if you'd rather be shining to be or Elon Because if you want to go watch Elon You can go watch every astronaut Oh, why not? Exactly, why not? Lava lamp mode, apart from that it's great It's a little hard to hear on the background Well, we still really appreciate you tuning in You were doing a great job Thank you Andy, thank you Matt This is so cool I'm sorry So we're at a big conference And the big thing is like You have to go to the next session now And we're just like, no, I'm not talking to you guys There's a lot of other friends Do you have an electric vehicle? I cannot wait to have an electric vehicle I'm going to spend my first paycheck Positing that into a savings account for an electric vehicle I've driven a lot of legs Oh, nice, I like the door This is new for doors A lot of legs Here we are Here we are, we appreciate the stream things Yeah, we appreciate you being here No, I didn't feel as if you could actually touch the chat And like scroll up So here I am trying to remember what everyone is saying So I can read it to you Right there What are you doing with this? Don't judge us Okay, so electric vehicles Space fashion Expressing yourself in space I'm a shooter who calls in space What's another kind of topping area that you'd like to delve into? We did a topic in Space Tourism I did, I did a talk on Space Tourism yesterday And we know that there's lots of private companies out there Trying to develop a space tourism business So far to date there's only been one technical space tourism company Which is Space Adventures Which collaborated with Roscosmos To send very wealthy people into space To dopper the ISS on a spare seat So I think each tourist had to pay between 20 and 40 million US dollars to go up Hopefully we can decrease that cost The one journey that would cost more than that Is if you want to drive with SpaceX And on their Starship Me, I think Just cough up 100 million dollars Seriously We'll become an artist Or if you already are an artist Work harder I guess That's just really good question Thank you But yeah Also thanks Starship A demand project So if you're an artist An artist you can win a seat on Starship You suck at my power Let's get back to that question Which was me Oh god, what am I doing? Tell him Okay Why does it come that? Go away Andrew Rogers says Are you planning on using rock the lab And wanting to test the medicines? Are they rocket-powered or not? Well, me personally I think there is definitely a place for Private space companies To help us do our research And send payloads up into space To test them Having said that What we're actually interested in With Space Medicine Is to go beyond the Van Allen Belt We've already got enough data Of space radiation and medications Inside the Van Allen Belt On ISS But I hope that With the Artemis program coming up We can send more experimentations Beyond that So that we can see A more accurate representation Of what happens In outer space I think that would be really cool And like you said There's a place for private space work And the more rockets And more companies we have out there The more opportunities That people like you Can do cool research in space I don't have to take all of your time We'll be in here like 13 minutes So if you want to grab Yeah Feel free to go in For the rest of the conference And we'll go and grab someone else To go and chat to you Thanks everyone For listening This was V Find her on Twitter Vistronaut She's amazing Gonna be Space Doctor The first Space Doctor of tomorrow Thank you for coming And talking to our people Thank you Vistronaut But we'd scratch the A With the VI instead I've always wanted to say this Like and subscribe Link in the description Thank you Oh my god here Alina Welcome Trey Harman Thank you Virginia And pilot Piotr Kani Thank you as well Matt Eddy You're here Matt Eddy says Thank you to you V Everyone's saying hello Teresa Andrew Loopy Who'd I miss Scotty Harrod Hi Hi Scotty Harrod I have someone else I've come to talk to all of you Sorry You have to kind of be loud Because there's like Starting now Of course there is Always when I'm broadcasting Hi Roy This is Jake Clark You can find him on Twitter Hi Space Jake Space Jake I'm a Space Jake Space Jake with a Y What do you do Space Jake So I have the PhD Canada based at the University of Queensland And I helped NASA Discover Exit clients So we have a Reservatory Only half an hour drive Down the road And so we come to Confirm Exit clients Exit clients Affirm Exit clients Exit clients And candidates From the NASA's test mission Awesome So you find finance Basically you find exit finance Yes Oh my goodness Also I apologise There is a guitar Thing happening right now I'm so mad Also I'm going to try it That's better Should we just move Maybe I should just move God But the But the algorithm And the guitars Are we just allowed to play You know what We both have signs So it's going to have wings You're entertaining Okay Oh entertain everyone So We can go in here Okay What? That's an empty room Okay So chat room You're going to have to watch us as we look I wish I could make the chat room Like stay up all the time But it doesn't Sorry You see my weird face right now Okay We're going on an adventure Oh that looks ugly Okay Oh look It's quiet I mean it's echoey Okay Oh you can leave it open That way people can join us If they want Okay So this is more quiet But it's more Hello chat room Where are you Did I break the chat room Okay People are on the street apparently Back to the client Hello Ace May Hello Jared Head Bingo Cool Alright Howdy from the States G'day Yeah sweet Okay We're back Oh much better Oh yeah you did it Good team So You find a supply Yes You have an observatory that used to do that Yes And how do you know when the telescope is in your observatory Great question Okay So NASA's new technician is an old telescope And so the telescope is pointing at a A patch in the night sky So if you stretch all the way out So I'm going to Go back here Well here we go Let's stretch all the way out And so to do the California filming scene Which is actually How much is that Which is actually a Polynesian navigation technique Wait what? Wait wait wait How many Like you just hold your hand in the sky Okay so From my pinkie is a bit messed up But the tip of your pinkie Outstretched to your Outstretched to your arms Is about 20 degrees in the night sky And so Which is awesome So Polynesians actually use that as a navigation tool To actually see where the stars are on the horizon And then Yeah we can do that Which is pretty cool So the NASA's test mission Was to get a patch in that sky Probably about 20 degrees by 20 degrees And so What's great about the NASA Kepler mission Is that it was serving a lot of stars And so it's sort of different from the starlight As that's the plan So you guys have seen that This is the star This is the planet That's all that's around Some of that light Is going to be blocked out And if the planet is all around This star So every five days Then you'll see a different That starlight every five days And so similarly we have a test It's looking at a larger patch In the night sky It's looking at 85 to 90% Of the entire sky For planets And so It detects a signal Which could potentially be A kind of light signal And then So it slices the two hosts Up into 13 seconds And then Each sector The detects Exemplary planets And then they'll send it To the pilot team For like an hour or so Yeah At me As part of the Minerva Shrask team And then we'll go and confirm And make sure that they are A planet Or is that another star Orbiting around That's the biggest thing Oh so you can get Like four signals Like so this That's right So it can potentially be Another star Orbiting around that star It can be the likes Of star spots And star activity as well So you can have a tiny Or not tiny A large sun spot Which is a Spot on the stellar surface Which is a little bit cooler And as a result There's a lot darker On that star And if it rotates Then it has a long lifetime On a period of time I mean Some sun spots here On the sun Even in that Lifetimes of Weeks, maybe months And so The planets that we do find Have incredibly short orbits On the order of days In some cases Hours Which is absolutely wild And so you want to be careful To make sure that This is indeed a planet And not any sort of Part of activity So what's a sun spot I'm guessing that That the signal is kind of Just Oh you have a sun spot And it's gone So you get Like one different brightness But like It doesn't repeat Um Yes and no So it could potentially be That it is a sun spot And that decays over time So what could potentially Happen is that As it rotates around As the sun spot Decays will get a little bit smaller And so that this Will become less and less Over time And you can actually see That star spot Above And decay And on the spot If you see One single transit Then that tells you For example If you've been looking at A star for 100 days And at the start Of That Mission lifetime Of 100 days You see a transit And then you never see Another one for The rest of those 100 days Now that could potentially Tell you That there is a planet orbiting Around that star That has a period Longer than 100 days Or it could just Cross that star And then decay And then as it came across Has that star Stellar service Rotated back again That's the sun spot Completely decayed What's the name of it? Wow We have a question here from Sorry, I'm so bad It isn't as like that Andrew Rogers wants to know Which new instrument Are you looking forward to Coming online in the next few years? If you ignore A new JWST The JWST You know that is I'm not laughing I'm not laughing I mean when launches Rather than When launches I believe he says Is the chatroom working It is working There just wasn't No one was talking Unless I have to set To not all chat Like a live chat I am kind of doing live chat I do sometimes Know what I'm doing Know what I'm doing So I am definitely Looking forward to JWST When I get to start Online I was very fortunate enough To be in the States Last month And was able to get Through this space telescope So that's Space Telescope Science Institute Based in Baltimore And so that's where The whole Headquarters are And will indeed be The headquarters for JWST So JWST Will be able to Find the Antitech And how So I'm really really fortunate I mean JWST Is huge It's the largest telescope Ever to be created What if it doesn't Unfold Correctly What happens then? I think A lot of the delays There's a lot of Reminded about delays But you forget about the delays When you play that game You think oh my god This is absolutely amazing This is the best telescope I've ever met And so Similarly with JWST It has been delayed By almost a decade now It's one of the most Expensive missions Ever to be conceived But the actual science That will get Out from JWST Is going to be Absolutely incredible Now JWST Is looking Optical And In the infrared And so What's great about the infrared Is that As the universe Is expanding The far-reaching galaxies That we can't see At the moment due To the optical light That was Admitted And that should be Stretched out Due to the expansion Of space itself So all of that light Is now in the infrared Because of the way That's actually Extended And so With JWST JWST We're going to See galaxies That we've never seen before You know To see them As they were Maybe a hundred million years Or maybe Tens of millions of years After they've found themselves Oh man You're so excited for it I'd love that you like Compare it to your Ah! Oh no His stream is just like Suffering Intently Oh my goodness Everyone's just looking at how like They lost the video But now they're back You know We just keep going here Tomorrow Now Cameras fall over With this Wi-Fi There's a band Playing in the background It's all happening We're going to go for like Five more minutes Because I do have to let Jake go But please ask questions Of Jake Because You're really passionate about How did you Get into space? Very good question I think as a kid I've just Never stopped asking why And For me Space I can't remember what it was about And there's not a single Moment there Where I can think That That was the point That got me into space By the likes of Dr. Andy Thomas Coming from Ellen So this is in my hometown actually Which by the way You added photo With Andy Thomas On the first night And yet one day Yes Which Really credit to Alexa here I said Thank you for that And so I would wait my parents Up at 2, 3 A couple of mornings And so you can imagine Waking up Your father At 2, 3 A couple of mornings Waking up That With big eyes Staring at him But Like Almost having a massive freak Up I just want to go outside To wave at Andy That's amazing All right then So Pulls me outside And we see the International Space Station Fly over And Six, seven-year-old Jake With big keys in grand Waving at Andy As he flies by And so I'm sure he wakes back Yeah, I'm sure And so I've always had a passion to Be an astronaut I mean As most kids do But I was like No, no, no This is This is what I'm doing Turns out I'm six before And I'm actually too tall To Be a pilot In worse situations And then I'm too tall To be an astronaut I have the opposite problem Yeah Well, here We're basically done So we're only at an equal plane Exactly Yeah, so I hope instead of Being an astronaut And being out there in space I can Be on the ground Safely And Look at the heavens From This perspective With all the comforts And indoor plumbing So we have One last question You before I'll let you go Therian Are there any ideas For cubes that Continuously Monitoring Individual Stars? I've only heard about Pixar Which was already He was We certainly know What that is I know So basically In a nutshell Cubes that Looking at stars To find planets Alright I'm going to go out there And I'm going to say That I have Zero knowledge On cubes So My Knowledge Is Heavily Based upon Astronomy And Astronomical Sciences Framework And not a lot I'm not a great deal On Space Research I only talk A bit about cubesets But tests For example Is looking at that Action The last guy For 27 days straight And so what's great Is that There's no day There's no night It's just space And so You're constant And so there's stars That are being observed Every 30 minutes There are some stars And very Special circumstances That are being observed Every two minutes And so you can see The brightness Change Of those stars Every two minutes If you want to So And that There is Obviously available And there are Public tools Available As well To utilize that So if you have a favorite star That has Potentially been observed By a test So a test Doesn't look at What's known as The acrylic plane And so the Acrylic plane Is essentially where The sun Troubles across In the sky For Very obvious reasons And so If it's In the southern sky The northern sky Is a bit different Due to There's a lot of Scatter of moonlight And earth light So they have Pushed on the Sectors up And had to do Some jiggery So Get that to work But If there's a star In the southern sky Which you like And think Oh There might be A hill sphere around So these Hill spheres Are Theorical constructs Where Alien civilization I don't know I don't know what a hill sphere is I've heard of dikes and Hill sphere Well Sorry The main contradiction Of a hill sphere Is actually the Gravitational influence Of a A body So if you get Within that hill sphere Then Breaks up So I can put the On Or just Give up Two different things It's been a long time It's living like Ten hours a day Sitting in speeches And presentations For like The last three days So my brain Yeah Well, it's 30 minutes And then I know To take a weird line So I'm happy to chat As long as you are Really? As long as people are All right Very quick I want to give you questions So last time We did a stream like this We were together Me and Whoever was watching We were doing planet hunters On Ziniverse Where you Actually look For a drink And Get some data And tests And So what I think Happens Is that Me and other citizens Identify Some data That might be interesting To look at For the researchers And then I guess that gets Pushed to people Like you Who Don't want to observe This And try to prove it Yeah, so The Sort of signatures That we think Could potentially be An actual planet Have either So there's A lot of data That's gone through The pipeline And Obviously being Machine learning Algorithm There's all sorts Of generalizations That you make And so actually Having human eyes On Set data Is also Very beneficial For a New York Experience Which I want to Right now And so Through those Pipelines They go Okay well We think that We've Found A Test Objects To Test Objects Of interest Of TOIs And so The likes of Planet hunters Or people like yourself And anyone That Anyone here listening You can go On the likes of Planet hunters In Zooniverse And all The rest of those Species And Planet projects And Try and find Transits And then Those Actually go through Community Oh And so As a follow-up Through another part Of Zooniverse We go through Both TOIs And TTOIs And so We can confirm Both And make sure That Planet is Excellent So We haven't yet Discovered An excellent Planet Directly out Of our own But we have Help us To Our Places And We've got About Another 10 Through the Peer of you Pipeline right now One Lucky System in particular Which is Hugely Exciting Cannot Talk about Right Right Right Right I will Be Shot down And You will Find A Fun There was Someone from the conference A venue Like one of the Genitorial stuff They were looking Toward the door Seize me And goes I don't know If I can Demonstrate it But they were like Walking And they were like And they just walked Back out It was a Lepid You didn't see them But it was funny But yeah I'm really excited And What's your space Hello Marty I have a question here From Andrew Rogers How has the Australian Space Program Made any impact? Do they have a presence At the conference? And I think they need an agency To the program Yeah So the Australian Space Agency Has a huge presence At this conference The head Meet Clark And the Deputy Director Oh man Terrible names Good faces And any Method Yes Thank you Thank you Say Premier Steve Marshall was here And there's a huge buzz That Honestly As an Australian I've never seen Me either This is new Like this conference has been so New Yeah And just Huge buzz And excitement And I mean in particular I've been Being A lot Of that Asteroid money That's been kicked too There's a whole session to it Marty Yes We are in Adelaide We should have had a tour Nothing yet Adelaide Yeah So there's Like you said A whole session On Asteroid money And if you had An Asteroid money session Here At the Space Research Conference Even Two, three years ago People would be like Look at these What is this When Now People are actually Taking it Quite seriously And there's now Research groups Actually Seriously considering The prospect Of Prospecting Actual See what you did there There's always Plenty of funds Really Really cool So Definitely a huge presence With the Australian Space Agency And Last week With the announcement Of $150 million Helping Australians Assist with NASA's Analyst Mission Which is Really huge I'm excited for that A lot of people were like Australia's Giving money to NASA For $150 million But like There's now What's happening That it's going to Australian Companies To be able to Participate you In the audits program So Where are those kind of gaps That NASA needs to fill With audits Like the Australian companies Can fill those gaps They're going to Collaborate And get that done And so that means That money Is staying in Australia It's not They're just Setting up to America Bye It's $150 million That is To be fair $150 million Making do In NASA's Budget as it is Like That's not That's not a lot of money Right back up And I mean The economical benefits Of space research Is huge To NASA There was a study that suggested That for every dollar The American taxpayer puts Into NASA They actually put out Roughly To partner To $15 Back out To the American economy And so It's all of the technology That NASA creates And develops That Private companies Wouldn't Because it's just Such a high risk That the private companies Just wouldn't invest in that And so NASA then develops that Where Private technology That's actually Quite fascinating Let's grab that And Let's start Very exciting Of it And so that's How that Investes Through the American economy Besides And we're going to Go pretty quickly Because the next session Is really Besides The asteroid Mine stuff What else Is your Number one Kind of take away From the Thing that you Are Listen to Or So that You're absolutely Super excited about And can't wait For it to Happen I think Just the development In medical Science And medical Physics In terms of Space Flight And getting people And Yeah We've got to get there In 2025 Everything's going to be Awesome But there is Such There's a lot more research To be done In terms of The effects Of zero gravity On a human There's A lot of talk Actually About medicine And actually Making medicines And space And just Things you Don't even think about This is hilarious You missed it And that's what We talked about At the start of this Broadcast So it's Absolutely So that's What I've enjoyed That Me too That was one of my Favorite things I was telling everyone Here The group I was looking at Using Lunar dust And the Fill of material For Like Tattlet The fill of Space Yeah Well On that note Let's go So You'll find me At Twitter Space Jake J-A-Y-K You can find me You just Google up Jake Clark U-S-Q You'll find I've done some Conversation articles I've written About a dozen Conversation articles And Yeah I'm trying to Work on a Personal website Right now So yeah What's your space Awesome All right Thank you Everyone
