00:00:06.120 --> 00:00:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Welcome once again to the Doctor Sky Experience heard exclusively

2
00:00:09.919 --> 00:00:13.919
<v Speaker 1>here on Talk Radio seventy seven w ABC, the crown

3
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Jewel of radio. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, as we move

4
00:00:16.879 --> 00:00:20.359
<v Speaker 1>through time and space, welcome to the Doctor Sky Sky

5
00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:25.559
<v Speaker 1>Events Calendar, episode number twenty. As we wrap up mostly

6
00:00:26.039 --> 00:00:29.679
<v Speaker 1>month number three, March twenty twenty three, and moving in

7
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:31.320
<v Speaker 1>to April.

8
00:00:31.120 --> 00:00:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Month number four.

9
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.520
<v Speaker 1>That's Ryan, the crown Jewel of radio here Talk Radio

10
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:42.520
<v Speaker 1>seventy seven WABC with the Doctor Sky Experience. We naturally

11
00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:44.840
<v Speaker 1>begin with the moon, and as we move past the

12
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:47.960
<v Speaker 1>mid portion of March twenty twenty three, we find the

13
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:50.079
<v Speaker 1>moon in its new phase, the dark of the Moon.

14
00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:52.240
<v Speaker 2>On the twenty first Why do I mention it?

15
00:00:52.640 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 1>This, in my opinion, is the best time naturally to

16
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:59.039
<v Speaker 1>view faint sky objects. As we look into our late

17
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:02.079
<v Speaker 1>March skyes, what can you see? Well, if you have

18
00:01:02.119 --> 00:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>a dark location away from city lights, you should be

19
00:01:05.319 --> 00:01:08.480
<v Speaker 1>able to see some amazing sights. Take a good look,

20
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:12.439
<v Speaker 1>and we also offer up a star map for your convenience.

21
00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Simply go to skymaps dot com and download your very

22
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:19.879
<v Speaker 1>own personalized star chart. On there you can see the

23
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:23.280
<v Speaker 1>great winter constellation of Orion, the Hunter, the most brilliant

24
00:01:23.319 --> 00:01:26.799
<v Speaker 1>star in the heavens, the stars Sirius in Canus Major,

25
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:29.840
<v Speaker 1>the large dog some eight point six light years away,

26
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:33.879
<v Speaker 1>among a host of other amazing objects. Let me find

27
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:36.200
<v Speaker 1>out that the moon then continues to move on as

28
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:39.439
<v Speaker 1>a waxing crescent low into the western part of the sky.

29
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Pay attention on the evenings of both March the twenty

30
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.920
<v Speaker 1>second and the twenty fourth, as the moon, once again

31
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:49.120
<v Speaker 1>in a new cycle, glinds past the planet Jupiter, and

32
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:51.920
<v Speaker 1>then on the twenty fourth, as it passes the goddess

33
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:55.200
<v Speaker 1>of love and beauty herself, the planet Venus.

34
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.000
<v Speaker 2>So much to talk about in our skies.

35
00:01:57.040 --> 00:02:00.079
<v Speaker 1>The moon, of course, that it's farthest position from the

36
00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Earth during this particular month. As we move toward the

37
00:02:03.799 --> 00:02:08.000
<v Speaker 1>thirty first, wrapping up March, well, as we talk about

38
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.840
<v Speaker 1>things in the nighttime sky, let's also talk about some

39
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>of the things that are going on in the world

40
00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:15.560
<v Speaker 1>of news and astronomy. And a lot of that, ladies

41
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:16.680
<v Speaker 1>and gentlemen, has to do.

42
00:02:17.159 --> 00:02:19.520
<v Speaker 2>With the subject of quantum physics.

43
00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:22.479
<v Speaker 1>We've all heard that the so called Big Bang, which

44
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.280
<v Speaker 1>I like very far more accurately as the Big Expansion

45
00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:29.759
<v Speaker 1>without a doubt happened some thirteen point seven seven billion

46
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.360
<v Speaker 1>years ago. What does that mean? So every single thing

47
00:02:33.520 --> 00:02:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you me, the telephone, the table, the food you see,

48
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the car you drive, everything is made, as Carl.

49
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 2>Sagan said, native star stuff.

50
00:02:43.919 --> 00:02:48.039
<v Speaker 1>But in the universe there's more other amazing conundrums, strange things.

51
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>We find out that the universe is made of twenty

52
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:54.520
<v Speaker 1>two percent at least dark matter. It's an invisible component

53
00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>of gravity, and of course it's not seen. So great

54
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:02.479
<v Speaker 1>astronomers like Vira Rubin help us understand the concept of

55
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.719
<v Speaker 1>dark matter, something that astronomers are still confused about. Nobody

56
00:03:06.759 --> 00:03:09.719
<v Speaker 1>simply really knows what the answer is. And then we

57
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:12.800
<v Speaker 1>have something called dark energy. Of all of our universe,

58
00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:16.599
<v Speaker 1>some seventy four percent is made up of this magical

59
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:18.080
<v Speaker 1>thing called dark energy.

60
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:18.520
<v Speaker 2>What is it?

61
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:23.800
<v Speaker 1>A negative pressure that's opposite gravity? Einstein thought he had

62
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:27.080
<v Speaker 1>he had an idea that this was out there, and

63
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:31.319
<v Speaker 1>he basically called it spooky action at a distance. Well,

64
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 1>his cosmological constant was also factored into understanding what we

65
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:38.840
<v Speaker 1>think we know and what we don't.

66
00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:40.560
<v Speaker 2>Know about dark energy.

67
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:43.240
<v Speaker 1>And then we move on to another phenomenal subject. How

68
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.159
<v Speaker 1>about the topic in quantum physics called quantum entanglement. What's

69
00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:51.199
<v Speaker 1>that those are subatomic particles that are linked by let's say,

70
00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:55.080
<v Speaker 1>billions of light years apart, and that those objects that

71
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:57.719
<v Speaker 1>are out there in space. Let's say it simply was

72
00:03:57.719 --> 00:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>a light switch on one side of the universe. You

73
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>flipped the switch. Well, we think nothing could go faster

74
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.400
<v Speaker 1>than the speed of light. We'll think again, because that

75
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:09.560
<v Speaker 1>same flipping of the switch would happen instantaneously on the

76
00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:11.520
<v Speaker 1>opposite side of the universe.

77
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:13.439
<v Speaker 2>So what are we all building up to?

78
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:17.439
<v Speaker 1>The area that Einstein, of course worked on so hard

79
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:21.480
<v Speaker 1>and so accurately is general and special theories of relativity,

80
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:26.519
<v Speaker 1>And now with quantum physics, sciences and cosmologists are trying

81
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:29.639
<v Speaker 1>desperately to put together the theory of everything, and that

82
00:04:29.759 --> 00:04:34.160
<v Speaker 1>is a combination of what makes sense in well Einsteinian physics,

83
00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:39.399
<v Speaker 1>special in general relativity, and also the world of quantum physics.

84
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:40.360
<v Speaker 2>Good luck.

85
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:43.759
<v Speaker 1>The big subject beyond that is what is consciousness and

86
00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 1>what is reality?

87
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:48.959
<v Speaker 2>But that's a story for another time. As we continue

88
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:49.519
<v Speaker 2>to move through.

89
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:52.079
<v Speaker 1>Time and space here on the Doctor Sky experience, we

90
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:55.680

105
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 1>probably one all the way out into the universe. And

106
00:05:45.279 --> 00:05:47.480
<v Speaker 1>if you're looking at the great Chinese food, make it

107
00:05:47.639 --> 00:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Yow's Chinese Cuisine. They're located deep in the heart of Gilbert, Arizona.

111
00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:08.079
<v Speaker 1>out here in Arizona that are looking for great Chinese food. Well,

112
00:06:08.079 --> 00:06:10.759
<v Speaker 1>we continue on Ladies Diamen to talk about the month

113
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:13.360
<v Speaker 1>of April, and there's a lot of exciting things that

114
00:06:13.399 --> 00:06:15.800
<v Speaker 1>are going to be happening in our April skies.

115
00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:17.199
<v Speaker 2>And we begin, of.

116
00:06:17.120 --> 00:06:20.959
<v Speaker 1>Course with an analysis of the moon itself, and we

117
00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:23.000
<v Speaker 1>find out that the next of the moons, the full

118
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:26.240
<v Speaker 1>moon in April, officially known as the Pascal or Easter

119
00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:29.839
<v Speaker 1>or Passover Moon, that'll take place on the sixth of April,

120
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:34.199
<v Speaker 1>just in time as we celebrate this particular special season

121
00:06:34.240 --> 00:06:37.800
<v Speaker 1>of Passover and the Easter. On the din, we find

122
00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:39.600
<v Speaker 1>out that the moon then moves on to its last

123
00:06:39.639 --> 00:06:42.639
<v Speaker 1>quarter on the thirteenth of April, back to new moon

124
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:45.160
<v Speaker 1>on the twentieth of April, and we'll have something special

125
00:06:45.160 --> 00:06:47.240
<v Speaker 1>to say about what you can see around that time.

126
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:49.759
<v Speaker 1>And then the moon continues to wax once again in

127
00:06:49.800 --> 00:06:50.519
<v Speaker 1>the west.

128
00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:52.560
<v Speaker 2>And first quarter on the twenty seventh.

129
00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Well, how about this an amazing sight in our skies,

130
00:06:56.399 --> 00:07:00.720
<v Speaker 1>the first of the major meteor showers of the twenty

131
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:04.600
<v Speaker 1>twenty three What I'm referring to is the annual return

132
00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:08.160
<v Speaker 1>of the Lyrid meteor shower that takes place during the

133
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>early morning hours of April twenty second and probably into

134
00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the twenty third. Where do you look Look high into

135
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:18.079
<v Speaker 1>the northeast sky after midnight on the night of the

136
00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:21.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty first into the twenty second, and try it again

137
00:07:21.079 --> 00:07:24.160
<v Speaker 1>on the twenty second into the twenty third. The area

138
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:26.480
<v Speaker 1>in the sky that you should be looking for is

139
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:30.120
<v Speaker 1>a brilliant star known as Vega. The star itself is

140
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.079
<v Speaker 1>some twenty five light years away. It heralds in the

141
00:07:33.120 --> 00:07:36.439
<v Speaker 1>most impressive part of the constellation of Lyra, the harp

142
00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:39.560
<v Speaker 1>the star Vega, and in that area of the sky

143
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:42.839
<v Speaker 1>is where all these particular meteors come from. But you

144
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:45.800
<v Speaker 1>need dark skies, well you have something going for you

145
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.399
<v Speaker 1>because at that particular time of the month, as I

146
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:51.439
<v Speaker 1>mentioned before, the moon is at its new phase. So

147
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:54.199
<v Speaker 1>you have and the sound of my voice here on

148
00:07:54.240 --> 00:07:58.600
<v Speaker 1>the Doctor's Sky Experience on Talk Radio seventy seven w ABC,

149
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:01.480
<v Speaker 1>the crown Jewel of radio, as we like to say,

150
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:04.439
<v Speaker 1>you may be in for a great sign, the Lyriid

151
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:08.040
<v Speaker 1>meteor shower brought to us by a comet called Comet thatcher.

152
00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Anywhere in dark skies of upwards maybe twenty twenty five

153
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:12.480
