over. There he's getting up ahead, she's. No, our ban does its earlier get one of my favorites. It's a good. What we do in the basement, it's not like! Actually did it at one public show you shouldn't really Ellsberg man, I love it. You were you like. I was out of sight. I thought it was totally groovy and, like the audience didn't like either I think the rest. The band felt like it was in others about your sons. We do just in the basement. Fine right and then their Siena, the songs. It will do in front of people twice a year. You guys do yeah equity sex race, which Dolly partner play that lie that that huge yeah festival in she did a good job. Girls at binary, right, oh, is that the one on the man is a glass and very loud in the UK. Dolly Barton doing agony sex playing the saxophone at Glastonbury, yes like who to think that whenever she had the crowding the power hand

yes she's putting out a new album she's calling her gay friendly dance Alan. Yet there is it, then album or the name of the track is just a wee bit gay or something like that. I think that's wanted it. Oh I thought that you sell. She described it as at the name of one I don't know it wasn't quotes, but I couldn't tell if that was because it was a title here, but she's got a huge following the gay communion she's she's embraces it fully. Yes, it is, and has always been rumours about her. I don't think there's a correct well mean that many rumours are there. She has a long term husband, yes, they married for like fifty year, but am I think, the fact that he is like trying to find a picture. This guy he's a total reckless and peaches says this is the nature of our relationship here. Have you been to arm like the upper thing? She has a really close girlfriend and everyone's like a Wolf course Oprah, gale or gay? Have you because you can't?

friends, lifelong friends with some one of the themes that Grech have you been to Dolly would have not still. You should go to divert there's a delicate museum. That's part of Dolly would that's like worth the admission by itself. Can you just The museum there's a reason to just go the museum, but here you could. I mean like it's worth going just for the museum sure, but then, when you exit the museum you all the rest of Dolly what do go, hang out, which is substantial, latest other aided in Theirs rollercoaster, which all right you're right, rollercoaster at all. No you mean I went with some friends and, like everybody else, is writing rollercoaster

We were just like that? Ok, have you never written on average rollercoaster before, but I've got to know in my life I am like. I don't feel it being terrified out of my mind. Right now, ok, so that's the reason I thought so the moon is off the bang and start here who do thought Dolly Pardon would make an appearance in this one dollar part so that their church we're talking about the dark side. The moon, yes, and it turns out there is such a thing, is the dark side of the moon, but it's just misused The popular front. Actually here the areas it of the dark side. The moon is that there is a narrow side of the moon that we never see and its dark. It's out their exposed to the cold chills. And on the dark side of the moon is the size of the moon. We never see yet, though, faces opposite our purview.

Right there is a side of the moon that we don't see right where we were going to go. He called the far side of the moon, yes, and I think that some would be equally school. I was thinking about it and it was a see you on the far side of the men here, let's even like a little more psychedelic. If you ask me here, because the whole far out thing. It resonated far. In fact, in the basement and restart thing in that, you are you gonna adapted yeah, ok make does not out never had there's a far sighted minarets aside, the moon that we don't see. It were correct in assuming that, but there is a dark side of the moon, and sometimes the dark, so the moon and the far side the moon are one and the same, but sometimes there not yeah, it gets a little confusing, but everything I just

two year in its our job to get you to wrap your heads around this like we had two yet because its extraordinarily confusing, it's almost like. Why couldn't just the popular conception be correct, because this is kind of difficult until you wrap your head around it and then it's easy, but it is in his heart at first everybody, so buckling tire she's on tight, very pack, a good all about I must get down to this right. So I guess we can start by saying that the moon is not like the sign. It doesn't generate that warm lovely glow itself that you see. I think most people now at this point that that is reflection from yeah and the moon is really big and that's why it looks super bride is not really very reflective, but its large. It is so on a dark dark night. The foreman looks really super bright because it's big yeah and that's

sunshine, sun shining on the moon. That's what makes the moon glow to us. There is also something

earth shine and when there's no sunshine hitting the moon. As far as we can see this, the earth is still reflecting light on it and they recently found out that the moon, if you can somehow and they figured out how to using radio telescopes yes subtract any kind of sunlight interference there and just isolate the earth shine. If you could just see that in what you would be seeing is a kind of dark, turquoise, cobalt, blue Moon, yes, a technically the dark side of the moon is turquoise, yes, and they have figured that out for the first time. I was it not just this year I was published yeah. So, let's exciting new news, because I've tried for a long time- that's right, but it took some smart people and people is to be done. Yes, so there is a. There is asylum like we said that we just don't see.

And you would think well that's because the moon orbits the earth right, which does it does, and so if the moon is just sitting there, stationary orbiting around the earth. Of course, we're gonna see the same side although time, that's a fallacy. The trade, as a matter of fact, if the moon orbit the earth and didn't rotate around its own access rights, we would see all sides of the moon at some point during that lunar orbit, which we call a month sure- and you can test this by just getting a tennis ball and keeping still and rotating around your hand and pretend your hand, his earth- and you would see at some point, the earth would see all sides of the tennis ball attract the trick. Is the moon rotates on its own access, at the same rate that it rotates around in orbit? And so now, if you take that tennis ball

in what you'd have to be pretty precise. I hate to spin it, but if you could spin it at the same rate that you're going around, you would notice and there's a handy animation on this article on house, the forks dot com. I thought I was a little fast. My allotted time They need to go in and slipping down over its handy in fast yeah, but you would notice that it, spending on its own access at the same rate, Edison spinning in orbit, then you're going to see that same side right and it's kind of it seems like a miracle. But it's not it's. A mind boggling colossal, caused more logical coincidence knows no coincidence, ok! Well then, I'm hoping you can explain this to me because check what you just said getting. It bears repeating the the the moons orbit around earth

less twenty nine point. Five days. That's right: the moon also rotates on its axis that rotation. You know the earth rotates on its axis did ice about twenty four hours. We call it a day the moon or data on its axis, so it has a day too, but its day. Last twenty nine point five days, so the movements rotation on its own This and its orbit around earth are the same yes, which is why no matter where you are on earth, you can't see anything but the near side of the moon, because even those rotating on its axis, its revolving in orbit at the same speed at the same rate around the earth, so you will never see anything but the near sighted shall we say this a third time. This was why this was what got me the most? That's why I'm sorry

yet again like this, this mind, boggling to me so there's a day side of the moon and a night side of the moon, just like there is honour his sons gonna. If you got a little moon, lunar cabin, which would be great by the way yeah, you would see sunrise and a centre of it, would look exactly the same. Well, it would take a month. It will be a very slow sunrise and very slow son. Very nice. What on earth is a month the lunar month right, which involves the four phases of the moon, waxing the waning that give us the crescent the full, the new all that jazz the super yeah that to the moon is a day, so our whole concept

there being a far sighted, the moon, a dark side, the moon and phases of the moon to the moon. The AIDS dislike hey man. This is just a data me, I'm just the man right reflecting light, because, just like over the course of twenty four hours on earth, different parts of the earth are exposed to the sunlight over the course of twenty nine point. Five days, thanks rotation of the moon. Different parts of the moon are exposed to sunlight, yet so that far sighted, the moon that we never see because of the rotation, an orbit being the same for the moon. Tat still gets bathed in sunlight for two weeks out of the year yet and sometimes were were seeing the night side. Sometimes she decides depends on when it happens. The following that lunar day right does not seem things already. Yet it is confusing the twice a choice

But not a third time. Well, I guess we should explain a little something about gravity and we did cover this. We did something on the tides right, title bulge, Yes, a video at least once we discussed it. I know it and it's on the reason that everything is in synchronicity like that is because of gravity. It's because earth is exerted gravitational pull on the moon and it's locked it in with us means doing the same thing to us here, and it's also further away from us here about an inch and a half a year. I think one point four eight inches per and that's what causes title bulge, the gravitational force on us causes the tide, calls on the near side right when the moon has the greatest pulsar waters. Can we pull toward the moon

and a nurses overcome by gravity and on the far side the opposite is true, but they're, both bulges when it, when it's at its nearest point in orbit in its further point nor so the moon, is moving further away from us by one point: four: eight inches per year. That means millions and billions of years from now things are gonna, be completely different. Yeah, like a billion years ago, a day on earth lasted eighteen hours, and I think the old the month was twenty days, long TWAIN it yeah and then now thing the gravity here and the effect of the moon on earth and vice versa. The earth rotation is slowing, right, yeah and eventually, I think, in a billion or two years, the day is expected to be about forty current birthdays. Long yeah, it says yet forty day. So I would that's interesting. I never thought about that in terms of the evolution

of mankind, not many people not do and a whole lot not like going on short days now, everyone's populating the planet longer days. Yesterday's yeah, it's all! Coincidentally, I'm sure I what yeah, I wonder, what impact it would have on our sleep cycle right they'll have won a billion years from now near. I saw it coming up into second we're gonna talk about the phases of the moon, because there's the misconceptions about that hello stuff. You should know listeners. Do you want a new year's resolution? That's easy to keep yes resolve to help protect your identity and personal info with lifelike identity theft, protection, lifelong alert, you to potential threats? to your identity and they see more, though what you can see by just monitoring your own credit like your info on the dark web and that's a big deal, yeah- and if you have a problem, lifelike, U S based restoration specialists, no the steps to take to help resolve your case. After all,

one in five identity theft, victims who had accounts open in their names discovered their theft through bank or credit card company and course. No one can prevent all identity theft or monitor all transactions at all businesses. But lifelike The new year's resolution does not easy to keep. It will help you protect what you ve worked so hard for get lifelike for up to twenty five percent off your first year, gonna lifelike, dotcom, slash stuff! That's why flocked outcomes less stuff for up to twenty five percent off so check- or you had promised everyone that we will talk about the phases of the moon, think this qualities think you should deliver on it. I think I will Strickland Jonathan Stricklin of text of road this article by the way that were workin from There are some misconceptions about the faces, the moon. He thinks and I agree with.

Is that a new moon occurs when the earth is blocking light from the sun and if you're, just a dumb human like me and you look up and New Moon, the sort of what it looks like it looks like the earth is blocking it right the site because we could almost see the shadow like clearly this was going on rain, but it's not you know, because the moon is actually in between the earth and the sun at that point. Yet without makes it impossible win win. The moon is for the earth is between them? The sun and the moon right you're saying what else in during a new moon the moon is between the earn their yeah exactly, but for a full moon. The earth is between the the sun and the moon harassed, both of them were kind of counter intuitive totally down and that they may since when you remember that the whole reason the moon glows, is because of its exposure to sunlight right right. So if the

moon. If we see the side that being exposed the sunlight, that means that the earth is between the sun and the moon, the trade right, because it's the only way we can see that parties was suddenly here. But if the move between the sun in the earth and decide its beings was the sunlight, is the opposite of them in the forest. The men of course, but couldn't see that so that, with the new menace yeah and Jonathan Heap it down in another, pretty easy way to understand like yours, if you're sitting in a room, and so and there's only a single light source like a spotlight will say in someone walk between the light and you you're gonna, see a silhouette of them, but you're not gonna, be able to see their detail right, but if you could somehow get behind them right, you would see They're back is bathed in that light. Exactly now they walked behind you you're both facing the sunlight yeah. So if you can just kind of me I travel around inside your head back here took out through your hair there. You would see that that person is a

that's right in the initial one when they are between you and you see their silhouette? That is the new man right, so it makes sense when you think about it. That way, I think it's us our. If you look at this illustration, that's awful to it. Definitely is like this is lunar phases is definitely one words like to look at a picture yeah, it's so much easier to see there. Irony of this whole thing is. Is that thanks to phases of the moon this lunar day here that the dark side of the moon is sometimes decide that we can see yeah, that's the one I have was my mind that yeah it's during a new moon, like we're still seeing the near sighted, the moon, that's all will ever see right side that has the man in the moon or the rabbit making mochi in the moon. But that's a japanese thing. It's version of the man. It's a rabbit making multi, which is like I'm sweet, sticky rice treats something that they see in the morning

seeing are the lunar. Seas are like the sea of tranquillity, all that stuff right and with the well. I guess what the advent of the soviet Lunar three spacecraft yeah. That was the first time we ever saw the far side of the moon right, and that is, I think, a nineteen. Fifty nine in the craziest the longer. We were that advanced yeah. It is there and if you're into that, you should go in there are how the space race Work episode. That was a good one. Yet Russia was advanced here, but these photos sent back from the Soviets, showed that the farce moon, didn't look anything like the near Salem. In that we see right, it was all just little pockmarked craters there weren't any

see tranquillity or anything like that and for a long time at pose this. This riddle called the lunar far Side Highlands problem. Why was the far side of the moon so different from the near side? So they finally recently think that they came up with a riddle like recently like this year, our or the answer to the riddle. Yet they came up the riddle after nineteen fifty nine but the reason being that the side of the moon, the near side, yet its closest to us, has been locked with called titles locked. The whole reason that we have this whole. Why this whole package going on because the moon and the earth are locked in orbit right and because they affect one another through gravity decide. Its closest to earth was subject to earths gravity more than the other side. So as the moon cooled and the earth was cooling, yeah, both still super hot

it was heeding the side of the moon that was closer to its right, yet annex and so on. The far side as the moon called the crust was thicker and sturdier on the near side, the crust as a little thinner, So, as the moon was still cooling, it got blasted with asteroids and media and all that gesture in undecided closest to us, the thinner, crust side lover flowed up from those meteor impacts, informed things like the sea of tranquillity. The other side, the Christmas thicker. So no love afloat up from an interesting, that's what they have to explain it wonder if there's any value and exploring the far side of the moon or if that would just make a great movie. I mean they're they're talking about

doing that. I dont know if a value as the year end with the ways that funding is we ve talked about with mass, is going a doubt of its priority yeah, but that would make a good movie, because one creepy thing about it. It made me think over space movies in such as that you lose radio contact on the far side of them right, so the movie version. Obviously you would have to sign off and go dark for peace, the time near and that's when, like the event horizon, occurs, what was the year while the event horizon? That's the guy is mainly gets like the real thing. Arthur Samuel go, crazy, Something happens creepy on the other side. Right was there in that movie moon with the same Rockwell. What the far side of the moon year was, the movie were they like racing they get out of the night fall on the moon because, like that I've heard a lot on. I think that was moon, ok, but will hear about it.

I like that movie about is fantastic. I think they're David Bowe, son directed at you, did Duncan Bogey says they are stuck in something he took. Her does David those animals roaming. Probably now they said, Zeb start us right Duncan start and he's from the moon. You anything idea home without good. It turns out there we can see more than just the near, so the moon, sometimes as well, because the orbit of the moon around the earth is an imperfect circle, its elliptical, when its furthest away, we can see an extra eight degrees of the eight of the eastern side, ok and when it's no one its closest to us, I'm sorry and then, when it first, the way we can see an extra about eight degrees of the western sign catch it and I think we didn't mention. We said that, if use, if you stop that tennis ball, we would see all sides of the moon, but even if it

out of sync a little bit and slow down or sped up a little bit, but we would see portions of the moon that we ve never seen before exactly said. This is why I might we're you: don't find it Incredibly amazing that were alive at a point in time when the moons rotational spin and its orbit around Eartha completely the same. Who said that? Wouldn't amazing, you don't think it's a coincidence. I don't think that's why I think. If that were true, then there wouldn't be earth, as we know it right. Ok, so you subscribe to the end Tropic Principle: what's the base says that things are the way they are because we're here to observe them? Yet they weren't the way that they are then we wouldn't be. We wouldn't be possible for us to be here to observe them, yet I think I never heard of that, but I think that makes a licence to me what about I don't know a kind of smacks of like intelligent.

I was a little bit. You know, because it basically saying like this. The idea that the universe is fine tuned do support life right. But if we, if that's the key like what? Why do we appear to be the only one out there? I don't think a surly fine tuned. I think just lucky that things like then to support like then that's another interpretation of its here. Should we wait Jerry up and ask her jerry, he is the answer. I do recommend people go to the article. The article on the website is called what and where is the dark side of the Moon Yak, because there is a very handy phases of the moon graphic and a super fast animation.

The fifth it actually to me, and I think I got it right now. You know in it's kind of small, carefully seated spinning, so I'm gonna retract my statement that super handy it kind of stinks stinky via its enemy, but I bet you there's a Youtube out there, that that shows it and better colored, high graphic detail and down to about that yeah? I got some like an old man. I do have one more thing to our great we're talking about and billions of years that the the The earth in the moon will have such an effect on on one another, that thee Earth Day will last forty current earth. Yes, that will also be the exact amount of time. The moons orbit said. The lunar phase in the earth day in a few billion years will be one and the same forty days and then apparently after that that can change much. So it's their both going toward some sort of equilibrium. Right sounds like it. What because the earth day

lockstep with the lunar cycle. At that point the issue will be on the other foot and when you're on the moon, you are only ever be able to see one side of the earth. The United States side, while there won't be a United States at that point, you don't know in three billion years. Yes, the earth is that there will be no mankind, don't get yourself, it's quite possible. We have to talk about the great filter sometime. I don't even know that you're gonna love it is it a fallback asters. Definitely where I think we have like a few. We can break out of Alan. I think you just threw down the gauntlet serve it. I think that was the gauntlet so chuck we just did

yeah I'm pretty happy when I always feel lost lost in space. I'm hanging on by the Skinner my teeth when we do these things were well. You d, great thanks, but we always Europe like really get feedback from astronomers. It turns out there very much non jerky when all right in very forgiving, very forgiving, very helpful because I think they really want other people understand and then I'm holding a look. How much? We know that you dont know they're like right. Look how much you could now great they're, not like practical, adjust or soccer vans, are so check on. We are going to do a listener mail as usual, but I'll, be right after this message: Josh yeah, let's chat about square space, my friend, ok, because if you need a web

It is time, at long last, for listener male colonists cool kid, as we like to highlight two kids: listen to the show, because they are so they revenge, yeah, they're, not yet hi guys my name's Ethan, I'm eleven years old,

First, I I'm writing in even I've been wanting to for eight months. There was nothing to talk about. Then out of the blue. Your pocket seem to mostly match what I was doing in thinking. I was talking to my friend attentively about space race, and you did a pot. I loved this eleven year old, sucking extensively about the space ratisbon. Nineteen, fifty, then you guys it upon guest on that. I was wondering about why was so sweet and unhealthy was picking movie when I saw some that were unrelated, and that got me thinking when it's not unrelated, who rate he means. And the most recent hours play monopoly with my family, and since we only had been playing two hours per day, it's. Into a three day game and counting as a right, Miss Emily Stores and over her, it's gotta, be over by now the horrific experience They are Pike S how monopoly works came out with.

Your mind, readers or have a mind reading device. Please tell me how that works by the way, I'm an old old pod direction to make in the magnets absurd. You said that the second most powerful force in the universe is magnetism. The real answer is electromagnetism awe and myself is how stuff works that calm, cheeky eaten. It would really, please me if you did apart ass, an electromagnets. I've always been fascinated by them. Their many uses. Listening for more stuff, you should know Ethan, PS, amusing.
