WEBVTT

1
00:00:09.119 --> 00:00:13.080
<v Speaker 1>And you're listening to the Doctor's Sky Experience heard proudly

2
00:00:13.080 --> 00:00:15.080
<v Speaker 1>across the nation, around the world, and I'm sure out

3
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:20.160
<v Speaker 1>to the cosmos on Talk Radio seventy seven WABC, the

4
00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:25.280
<v Speaker 1>iconic Talk Radio seventy seven WABC, as we begin another

5
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:28.559
<v Speaker 1>journey into the story of what's above us in our

6
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:31.679
<v Speaker 1>night skies, from the great realms of astronomy, space, aviation,

7
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:36.359
<v Speaker 1>in weather, and so much more. Included in our discussions

8
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:40.159
<v Speaker 1>with you, the great listening audience of this amazing radio station,

9
00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:44.799
<v Speaker 1>are subject matters that relate to American exceptionalism, about truth,

10
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:48.600
<v Speaker 1>justice and the American way. And we begin, of course

11
00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:52.159
<v Speaker 1>with the great solar Storm of twenty twenty four, at

12
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>least so far over the weekend of May tenth. And

13
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:57.520
<v Speaker 1>if you're within this out in my voice, and you

14
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:01.159
<v Speaker 1>look north in the skies anywhere from the northern latitudes

15
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.879
<v Speaker 1>of the United States even down to areas as low

16
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:10.719
<v Speaker 1>latitudes as Mexico, Florida, Key West Florida, every precise and

17
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Puerto Rico observers got to see the most amazing sights

18
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:18.959
<v Speaker 1>in the skies, beautiful colors, rays of arc of light.

19
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:21.760
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, it is you know that auroras,

20
00:01:21.959 --> 00:01:25.640
<v Speaker 1>which come in the colors of red, green, purple, and blue,

21
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.439
<v Speaker 1>are caused by different elements up in the atmosphere when

22
00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:32.959
<v Speaker 1>the large solar proton storms breaks a hole in the

23
00:01:33.000 --> 00:01:37.920
<v Speaker 1>Earth's magnetosphere, indeed, goes directly toward the poles, the weakest

24
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:42.200
<v Speaker 1>link in the chain. Red auroras are atomic oxygen, and

25
00:01:42.239 --> 00:01:44.799
<v Speaker 1>they're usually above one hundred and fifty miles in space.

26
00:01:45.519 --> 00:01:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Imagine the view that the International Space Station gets there

27
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:50.959
<v Speaker 1>about two hundred and sixty miles above the Earth, and

28
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:54.159
<v Speaker 1>then looking back down with those great gameras and the

29
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>human eye, that site must literally be, of course, out

30
00:01:58.519 --> 00:02:01.959
<v Speaker 1>of this world. But green aurors are also produced by

31
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:05.840
<v Speaker 1>atomic oxygen, but they're lower in the atmosphere, maybe upwards

32
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.240
<v Speaker 1>up to I should say, one hundred and fifty miles

33
00:02:08.280 --> 00:02:11.159
<v Speaker 1>upon the Earth. But what about those elusive colors like

34
00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:14.240
<v Speaker 1>purples and blues that many of you got to see. Well,

35
00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:18.960
<v Speaker 1>simply it's ionized nitrogen. The blue auroras are above sixty

36
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:21.800
<v Speaker 1>miles up in space. And by the way, that's the

37
00:02:21.879 --> 00:02:26.400
<v Speaker 1>markation line or demarcation line where space usually begins. It's

38
00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:30.159
<v Speaker 1>called a carbon line. Somewhere around sixty miles. And if

39
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:32.879
<v Speaker 1>you got to see this most amazing color, the healing

40
00:02:32.919 --> 00:02:37.159
<v Speaker 1>color purple. They're also due to ionized nitrogen and they

41
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:41.439
<v Speaker 1>are literally below that of sixty miles up in the atmosphere.

42
00:02:41.879 --> 00:02:45.080
<v Speaker 1>And remember think about this, The Earth's atmosphere is so precious,

43
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:48.719
<v Speaker 1>that troposphere, the weather sphere, that if the analogy were

44
00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:51.719
<v Speaker 1>that the Earth were an apple, this is no joke.

45
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:54.719
<v Speaker 1>We didn't make it up. The thickness or thinness I

46
00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:56.639
<v Speaker 1>should say, in the atmosphere is like that of the

47
00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:00.599
<v Speaker 1>skin on an apple. Quite amazing. So one of the

48
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:03.240
<v Speaker 1>things can we see during the month of May. And

49
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:05.319
<v Speaker 1>again we'll talk a little bit more about the Great

50
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:08.319
<v Speaker 1>Souldier Storm in just a moment. But the moon moves

51
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:11.240
<v Speaker 1>under its first quarter phase that is on the fifteenth,

52
00:03:11.719 --> 00:03:13.960
<v Speaker 1>and I believe, as doctor Scot that is probably one

53
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>of the best examples if you're out there with say children,

54
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:20.800
<v Speaker 1>adult seniors, and you want to get to experience the

55
00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:22.919
<v Speaker 1>beauty of Earth's nearest neighbor of the moon. Why do

56
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:25.159
<v Speaker 1>I say first quarter is usually a good time because

57
00:03:25.159 --> 00:03:27.159
<v Speaker 1>it's in the evening. You don't have to get up

58
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:29.360
<v Speaker 1>during the wee hours of the morning or stay up

59
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:32.680
<v Speaker 1>when a last quarter moon happens during the waning cycle.

60
00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:36.719
<v Speaker 1>Why do I mention it's really important and more than

61
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.599
<v Speaker 1>likely outstanding. Take a pair of binoculars and scan alone

62
00:03:39.639 --> 00:03:42.360
<v Speaker 1>the light and dark line on the surface of the

63
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Moon that you see, and that of course is known

64
00:03:44.719 --> 00:03:49.280
<v Speaker 1>as the terminator. Great shadow relief is exhibited. And if

65
00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:52.120
<v Speaker 1>you have a telescope, and I'm sure somebody out there

66
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:55.599
<v Speaker 1>within the sound of this particular program, you know all

67
00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:00.719
<v Speaker 1>too well that that is literally spectacular shadows that are

68
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:03.360
<v Speaker 1>cast over the lunar matre, the ancient seas that they

69
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:06.240
<v Speaker 1>thought were filled with water, and the mountains on the

70
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:08.080
<v Speaker 1>Moon that are literally get a load of this, even

71
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:11.159
<v Speaker 1>higher than Mount Everest in some areas on the litter surface,

72
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:14.319
<v Speaker 1>and the lunar mountains can range upwards of about to

73
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:18.480
<v Speaker 1>thirty five thousand feet or more. And that's amazing. But

74
00:04:18.600 --> 00:04:21.600
<v Speaker 1>we find out that the planetary lineup is pretty poor

75
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:23.600
<v Speaker 1>for the month of May, at least from mid May on,

76
00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:26.560
<v Speaker 1>most of the planets are of course in the morning sky.

77
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:29.959
<v Speaker 1>We lose great Zeus Jupiters. It moves into conjunction with

78
00:04:29.959 --> 00:04:33.079
<v Speaker 1>the on the eighteenth, and then we all get set

79
00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:36.519
<v Speaker 1>up for the most spectacular moons that is the beautiful

80
00:04:36.800 --> 00:04:39.720
<v Speaker 1>full flower moon, as that takes place on the twenty

81
00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:43.040
<v Speaker 1>third at nine to fifty three am Eastern daylight time.

82
00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:45.879
<v Speaker 1>And as we do more on the Doctor Sky updates

83
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:48.800
<v Speaker 1>here with the Doctor Sky Experience, we'll be talking with

84
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:52.879
<v Speaker 1>you about, of course, ways to capture these sites, the

85
00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.680
<v Speaker 1>amazing things and our skies. A Doctor Sky always reminds

86
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:57.519
<v Speaker 1>you always murder to keep your eyes to the skies.

87
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:00.800
<v Speaker 1>And also I like to remin you here on this

88
00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:04.639
<v Speaker 1>great radio station, Talk Radio seventy seven WABC. You can

89
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:07.480
<v Speaker 1>stay in touch with me. Not only begot by going

90
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:10.839
<v Speaker 1>to WABC radio dot com, which you've done for the

91
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Doctor Sky Experience, but on each week every Sunday morning

92
00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.360
<v Speaker 1>with owner and operative John Katz and the t's on

93
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:20.279
<v Speaker 1>a show that goes worldwide and it goes viral, and

94
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:22.480
<v Speaker 1>so many great guests, and I'm so privileged to be

95
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:25.839
<v Speaker 1>one of them as we talk on the Cat's Round Table.

96
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 1>And then every other Wednesday at one am, you have

97
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:33.160
<v Speaker 1>to listen in one of those one am segments Frank

98
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:36.639
<v Speaker 1>Marno in the great program called the Other Side of Midnight.

99
00:05:37.240 --> 00:05:39.439
<v Speaker 1>He and I work together to do a program that

100
00:05:39.519 --> 00:05:42.120
<v Speaker 1>many of you love out there, appreciate the commentaries and

101
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:47.480
<v Speaker 1>emails that is cosmic conversations with me Doctor Scotty emails

102
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:49.639
<v Speaker 1>if you'd like to. Seventy one is doctor Sky's show

103
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:53.680
<v Speaker 1>at gmail dot com. And finally concluding with information about

104
00:05:53.680 --> 00:05:58.279
<v Speaker 1>the great solar storm of May twenty twenty four. Right

105
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:01.040
<v Speaker 1>now active region thirty six six before is moving to

106
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.480
<v Speaker 1>the right side of the Sun, the western limbit. It'll

107
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:06.480
<v Speaker 1>go around the Sun. Remember the Sun rotates near the

108
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:11.040
<v Speaker 1>equator every twenty five days. So people thinking smart out there,

109
00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:13.879
<v Speaker 1>and you are, you may wonder when will it return

110
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.879
<v Speaker 1>if it does survive going around the back side or

111
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:18.879
<v Speaker 1>the far side of the Sun, only to pop up

112
00:06:18.879 --> 00:06:21.439
<v Speaker 1>again on the eastern side of the Sun and maybe

113
00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:26.480
<v Speaker 1>give us round two of this most amazing solar disturbance

114
00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:31.720
<v Speaker 1>and event in space weather. Well, the best predictions are,

115
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.680
<v Speaker 1>if it survives, it ain't come around the eastern edge

116
00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:36.720
<v Speaker 1>of the Sun or the left edge high around the

117
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:39.040
<v Speaker 1>twenty seventh or twenty eighth of May. So we'll keep

118
00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:42.560
<v Speaker 1>you posted on that. So now some quick updates. If

119
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:45.160
<v Speaker 1>you're living higher latitudes, you already know that the auroras

120
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:49.160
<v Speaker 1>are visible. Your great pictures out there are really so amazing.

121
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:51.800
<v Speaker 1>But for everybody else who has, within the sound of

122
00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:55.560
<v Speaker 1>my voice a smartphone, who doesn't, here's some tips on

123
00:06:55.600 --> 00:06:58.600
<v Speaker 1>how to take pictures of those particular events, the elusive

124
00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:02.040
<v Speaker 1>war reality, or if you're in this other hemisphere, quite

125
00:07:02.079 --> 00:07:06.040
<v Speaker 1>the opposite auroral shallows. Take your phone, whether it's Android

126
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:09.040
<v Speaker 1>or iPhone or whatever you have, and try to set

127
00:07:09.079 --> 00:07:11.920
<v Speaker 1>the camera on a exposure of at least three seconds

128
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:15.279
<v Speaker 1>or so. And remember, these pixelated cameras today pick up

129
00:07:15.279 --> 00:07:18.199
<v Speaker 1>way more than the eye. And many people have said, well,

130
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>I got to look at the auroras, or tried to

131
00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:22.759
<v Speaker 1>look at the auroras, and I didn't see anything. But

132
00:07:22.839 --> 00:07:24.839
<v Speaker 1>when I took a picture of the sky in the north,

133
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:26.959
<v Speaker 1>let's say, in the northern hemisphere, I got to see

134
00:07:26.959 --> 00:07:30.480
<v Speaker 1>this mostly amazing red and green. Well, your eye of

135
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.480
<v Speaker 1>sensitivity is nothing like that of a camera, especially with

136
00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.480
<v Speaker 1>high pixels, So a three second exposure. Put it on

137
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:38.720
<v Speaker 1>a tripod or one of those adapters to hold it

138
00:07:38.759 --> 00:07:41.519
<v Speaker 1>if you can, but if not, just enjoy the beauty

139
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:44.600
<v Speaker 1>of the nighttime sky as you look sky would as

140
00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.720
<v Speaker 1>we talk here on the Doctor Sky Experience about all

141
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.319
<v Speaker 1>these things that we've talked about, from asteroids, comets, and

142
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:54.199
<v Speaker 1>so many other things. Eclipses. Remember the Grade eclipse of

143
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:57.000
<v Speaker 1>April the eighth, Many of you saw it as partial.

144
00:07:57.040 --> 00:07:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Many of you, like myself were in the path of

145
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:02.879
<v Speaker 1>the darkness of the moon. Albeit we were down and

146
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:05.079
<v Speaker 1>asked to be a speaker at the Great text Clips

147
00:08:05.160 --> 00:08:09.519
<v Speaker 1>Music Festival in Junction, Texas. Unfortunately, our weather was less

148
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>than perfect, but the crowds were cheering as the moon,

149
00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:16.160
<v Speaker 1>of course moved across the sun, the most amazing side

150
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:19.199
<v Speaker 1>of the sky until next time. We of course want

151
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:21.519
<v Speaker 1>to hear from you Doctor Sky Show at gmail dot

<v Speaker 1>com questions and comments, And thank you ladies and gentlemen

153

154
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:31.600
<v Speaker 1>thank you to owner and operator John Katzimatitis and family

155
00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:35.399
<v Speaker 1>for having the confidence to put this particular program here

156
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:39.679
<v Speaker 1>so everybody can listen to some amazing things that happen

157
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.240
<v Speaker 1>above us. As we know, the world is problematic right

158
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:45.519
<v Speaker 1>now at so many things in the world of political

159
00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:48.919
<v Speaker 1>stuff and world events, and rightfully so they do a

160
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.679
<v Speaker 1>great job of reporting on that. But we kind of

161
00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:55.759
<v Speaker 1>calmed down and we looked skyward. Remember when we were children,

162
00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:57.720
<v Speaker 1>the nights that we were at summer camp let's say,

163
00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:01.399
<v Speaker 1>or seniors or anybody who thinks back in time when

164
00:09:01.440 --> 00:09:04.679
<v Speaker 1>they looked at the nighttime sky and wondered what's out there?

165
00:09:05.279 --> 00:09:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Who created it? Where are we in this cosmosis? Carl

166
00:09:08.639 --> 00:09:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Sagan said once and I quote the earth just a

167
00:09:12.039 --> 00:09:15.679
<v Speaker 1>pale blue Doctor clar Skuys, I'm your navigator on the

168
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:18.519
<v Speaker 1>highway to the heavens. As we continue with the Doctor

169
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.799
<v Speaker 1>Sky experience, talking about these great realms and interlaced in

170
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:27.279
<v Speaker 1>this program. As a proud US military veteran myself, many

171
00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:29.440
<v Speaker 1>of you out there, we salute you and the wives

172
00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:32.080
<v Speaker 1>of the veterans and all of you who service and

173
00:09:32.200 --> 00:09:35.279
<v Speaker 1>work that is in service related a type of occupations

174
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:39.480
<v Speaker 1>like police, law enforcement and first responders. We got your

175
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.639
<v Speaker 1>ear here because it's all about America and how to

176
00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:45.360
<v Speaker 1>keep us safe and how to keep us strong in

177
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:48.759
<v Speaker 1>these very troubling times. But better than that, what could

178
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 1>be better than that looking sky with to calm us

179
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:54.240
<v Speaker 1>down and expand their minds, which is what we do

180
