12:30 am
of course, we say they're about never getting up every weekend on d w. the are you healthy motivated? i'm between 30 and 55 years old. then that still time to apply to not set for a chance to move into these rooms for a whole year. the space agency is looking for a full volunteers to take part in an experiment, submit a team life on logs in the run up to attempts to build it based on it. so if it's more on cru trips to the red planet, a roadside planned, including one with a rover on board, named off the aerobic comic dog, best known by its french name. it a fix that story and not small this week on dw sign. so welcome to tamara today the
12:31 am
comic book canine hero on a mission to mars a long journey through the darkness of space to our neighboring planets. the adventure will take them to the martian moon phobos, a small passenger on board, a japanese spaceship. decades of i know it's a dangerous trip to a very, you know, spittle area. and i know if you defects were a real dog and he wouldn't be able to survive that income. the rover is named after the dog created by idea or data. so and then he goes, she just in the us, i know the 6 networks coming. so you do fix. this is a little dog drawers, rooms around to discover things for modeling. and then i, me to fix the name actually comes from the french to eat a fix and stands for step in this, but also determination height of to say these type less than 30 kilometers long phobos is one of mars is fascinating moons. the mission there has a clear objective. i need to bring a sample from the motion system back to where it is ones out there. so it was like
12:32 am
that and it. so once it looked like it just always gives you, the dfcs will be ferried. they're on board a spacecraft built by the japanese space agency jack. so that's why i was in talk to entering a little bit around the phone with us chuck. so we'll make a test approach to prepare for its own monday improvement on the during this stage, the robot will be thrown onto the surface from a height of 30 to 45 minutes. i just can someone fits these meet dr. rolling down. so i'm coming to richmond a random position on people have to write themselves some able to over for the whole. and they will then unfolded the solar panels. you can to start generating energy bills. hopefully it urgent that you use this energy before the 1st night. and photos sent as long as otherwise it will get so cold for the batteries and electronics will no longer work. as long as ok trip to see both of them. to the indian equation sniffled, the german and french space agencies developed and built the day fixed and close cooperation. the rover is packed to the brim with technology. it weighs in at a relatively modest 25 kilograms. the 4 delicate legs were
12:33 am
a major challenge for the team in light of the extremely low gravity on phobos comes, i just think that the ground might be like how does snow need? the wheels are designed to kind of chevrolet across the center store, but if it's hot like concrete, i think it's going to be a bumpy ride. and the disability flip at the time, europe's mars express admission has been delivering spectacular images of the red planet like these for 20 years. ultimate us and sure. i just mazda, seen a number of impact, some of the major, as i've often thought, and the object to from these impacts will likely be found on the photos tech is collected by the moon, as it flew through this clouds of motion material this last month, the week of whom is on this one crucial instrument built for you. dfcs in berlin is the spectrometer young don barton kline, we have a tiny little special laser on board. so when it fires at the surface, some of the light is reflected back, comments, so we can,
12:34 am
we analyze the products here, this slide it through this one frequency is like how fast is it also does come from these installations. we can tell what kind of a mentor on the car out. i mean the be a 2nd important scientific instrument is the rover's radio meter also built in berlin. and again to help identify materials found on phobos. on the you meet the already a meter can measure surface temperatures and a 6 spectral generally in frontier you can see the 6 different devices that each of cramps with the individual sensors and then the one on they can measure extremely low temperature this up on the side of this temple, that's one of the purpose of fishing me down to minus 150 degrees celsius. the scientific goal is clear mysteriously, but the kind of rocks will tell us with relative so continued. that's where the moon comes from. whether it's a captured party or is a piece broken out as much as it goes through miles. it might also tell us whether that was life and if so, when and where it came from, cops leading. finally, we're looking for amino acids. it is most of the building blocks of lights and post
12:35 am
. i'm dis, needles. the exploration module will return to the mother ship with the rock sample, but only the material gathered from the surface of the martian moon will make the long journey back to earth and return capsule. the dfcs rover will remain behind on cellphones. do you have a passion for science on health? check out the the you science on take told me why did you having did not get drunk? why do gravitational waves squeeze all bodies? how much water do we need per day? do stressed out plan screens to help know what's the perfect cubic foot, but the body gets to on dw science. so let's take salt channel. it's packed with stories like this one. this satellite can smells, thoughts from face. well,
12:36 am
kind of founding call thoughts and grab some of them. now those medium is one of the biggest costs for global warming wise kathy contribute to a sort of global meet the emissions. the oil industry is equally cause of the dave is more than $84.00 times as potent as carbon dioxide at dropping heated around the devil cutting down medium as the source isn't the shock. the one is the most effective ways to then use global warming. the medium is an invisible gas. this makes it hard to detect the sparks that's used in product, cameron us to spot hotspots like oil fields. i'm a new up, it's from a meeting using the new satellites like me to the sides. got much better detect us . they can see smaller leaks of a bigger audience. ok, these washing machine size satellites cannot detect least mis every small font and but big time to take a group of spots and books from i've heard of those. so basically it can name and shame me thing. so is this all from space find the way james web space
12:37 am
telescope is also able to identify gases in the space of x. so upon it, in 2023 for the 1st time it detected me same on a permit over a times the size of a, in a style system around a 120 light years away. organic molecules like me say, might be evidence that life has developed elsewhere and not exceed um, progress is being made and the search for it has pro physicists and height is bag. i've taken a close look at a coalescing accretion desk like this and that, and many others like it out there in the universe. new planets are constantly being formed, but in this star system, the research team has detected water dust and key organic molecules. that means that earth like planets could see a red cli also one day form there and likely in other systems, even around very hot and massive stars is the 1st time we find water and carbon
12:38 am
rich molecules in, in such a new environment. and this is very important because we know that most of the star is including our son and our solar system formed in, in extreme environments like this one. it's long been unclear whether rocky plants like ours could take shape near really massive stars. scientists thought the extremely harsh environment and heavy radiation they emit might stop planets from forming out of the matter surrounding them. they were skeptical the water dust and carbon compounds could be found in high concentrations near young, high mass stores. as what's new is that we found this in the system that's very far away in a very extreme environment with lots of you the radiation falls. yeah, we were very surprised on, very have been through and to save it as we were not expecting such a result. the discovery was made possible by the james web space telescope, the central component for one of the most important and for red detectors on board
12:39 am
. a so called filter wheel was designed and built by the hydra bags. scientists, with its health research teams have been able to use the telescope to look farther out into the universe with far greater precision. the data can be used to identify the tiniest of particles, even those that are thousands of light years away. thanks, we have just opened our eyes to a whole new window and we can now study the universe as much larger as distances. so yes, definitely we're waiting for much more. yeah, up to the is this to to talking with gold rush mentality at the moment which always happens unnatural. physics, especially fema and also physic with great progress and technical capabilities. you find lots of new things you couldn't have imagined before the infinitive, non sales or feed a lawyer as a home. and we're currently in the midst of such a time of developing the ins lineup side the james web telescopes,
12:40 am
1st look at a planetary nursery around a massive store was certainly promising. the team now believes that there are many more excell planets out there than previously estimated. let's see, yes, it really looks as if the conditions are right for us like products to form in many different environments, evens and i'm conversely, this would also mean that it's like chronic zip code. very frequently. the funny thing is, is if you fall, come in order to be able to more accurately estimate the potential number of ex, so planets out there, the team will next turn the telescope. on 14 of the recreation disc, we're planets might be format notes in the decades to come. they might even sunday, discover one like our ours with concrete evidence of lice. let us read why on a. if you have a special science question, send it to us as a video,
12:41 am
text or voice mail. if we on switch on the show, we'll send you a little present as a thank you. come on, just ask. this week's view, a question comes from romano g in mexico. the how does our son work? the star that our planet orbit is a huge sphere of electrically charged gas. with the diameter over $100.00 times that of hers. it's the solar systems largest celeste. you'll object and contains more than 99 percent of its total mass side, the sun, all that mass creates incredibly high pressures and temperatures. 15000000 degrees
12:42 am
celsius, which in turn drives the hydrogen. our star mostly consists of to break down into its components atomic nuclei and electronic india extreme conditions at the center of the sun. hydrogen nuclei can then fuse to form heavier elements such as helium. during the fusion process, part of the mass involved is converted into energy and released as heat. this thermo radiation is admitted in the form of light photons. those they constantly collide with sandra deflected by other particles. these photons take around 100000 years to reach the surface of the sun. the sun life we see today was therefore actually created by nuclear fusion, a 100 millennia ago, in the sun. this process also releases particles called neutrinos,
12:43 am
which are not deflected. so they take just a few seconds to passed the star surface and around 8 minutes later they reach the earth. researchers study the sub atomic particles and well shield the detectors, because they can help reveal which processes are currently taking place deep inside the side. much of what we know about our stars, inner workings is based on observing neutrinos, it admits. but at some point, every fire goes out. as the sun burns up, the last of its hydrogen staples, as well to a titanic sides becoming a red giant. and turning the earth's crust into a kind of wide ocean of lava. but the impending dean keep you up at night. it won't happen for 6000000000 years also. in the meantime, we can figure out more efficient ways to tap the sun's rays to generate climate friendly electricity. the government of switzerland is helping developers build new
12:44 am
solar power projects and researches they have discovered ways to make a res went more efficiently. spot, a large scale switch over to renewables is still proving tricky. the high end this without this solar panel test or re 2500 meters above sea level has been generating electricity from over 7 years, especially in winter. is in here, you can see a number of most of the modules in position that different angles understood to is as entities as augustine 0 as an energy supply. we have primarily interested in producing as much electricity as possible in winter as soon as they meet the lawn said that the solar energy generation doesn't work well on the central time. so these movies because it's often very foggy with and see all, but it does work well, appear in the mountain loc receive great potential on alpine solar power plants is tons right next to the test to raise been completed,
12:45 am
it will produce electricity for around 3000 households, especially in winter, switzerland needs green electricity in winter. that's why the government's energy strategy is now focusing on photo voltaic systems in the mountains. in the summer had launched a funding program called solar express without pine system slated to start generating electricity. as early as 2025. they're supposed to produce up to to terrell what hours per year enough for around $400000.00 households. and then vicious go, is it realistic is thank you, at least this is so think of potential of $10.00 to $20.00 tera what hours per year is realistic, lumber time in a medium to them. however, i think we can generate around 3 to 5 terabytes hours of electricity in the else still in developing that. so you can v a double sided, alpine photo voltaic systems with modules inclined at 60 to 90 degrees,
12:46 am
generate the most electricity. they top available solar radiation very effectively . the sun shines directly on the upper surface, but at the same time, radiation is reflected by the snow on the ground and also strikes the panel under surfaces. 7 years of measurements from the alpine test or re reveal that it generates almost twice as much electricity annually as a reference plant at a lower elevation. in the winter months, it produces up to 3 and a half times more electricity. so the potential is there, but can it be tapped to encourage investment in alpine solar plants and ensure they're built as quickly as possible. subsidies are also part of the solar express program. this with the federal government is willing to cover 60 percent of the costs for a race planned before the end of 2025. after editing that, there are currently around a 50 projects in the planning stage, and it could produce a total of around one to or one hour on the ceiling so,
12:47 am
so we would need at least twice as many projects to have to, to turn to what the item voice me as a means since don't put so feel the place to that's the time table is very tight. it's on 16 since we have to feed them. energy integrate by 2025 and i to find spot . so we locked the transformer stations, and also the specialist is phase and spits alicia lloyd. and another issue at some locations is growing resistance among the locals and conservationists. this is the product. yeah, it's the wrong answer to the right question. to say we need electricity and of course problem, but do we have to build over landscape somebody else with 2000 meters myself and make a football with one project? envision solar modules covering an area the size of 10 football fields. here we have these on the installation insurance. yeah. i'll see if i have to say that this model looks better than in other places. all conservationists weren't clearly opposed here, but in a referendum the locals still said no other projects in other locations were
12:48 am
approved. but environmental associations were opposed and raised objections. he talked on all on the unlocking pediatricia, there are other plans plans and another valley near here and on an untouched mountain sides down the way l. pine funding has been practiced, essential things that happen. so where there are no real roads and biodiversity, you know, it's also quite high. the, some people off the plastic that's about that ice toll thing. we simply can't support these plans with the state some cut and we have all kinds of the landscape and make sure the long shelf sent them to all house on, on the suspects. but such objections caused delays, and those could even mean the end of some projects. the storehouse showed us exactly the case that projects can be sorted by objection is and then some investors will be asking whether that projects will come in under the timeline is to know well, what are the risks of growing to great, easy,
12:49 am
cannot talking. but i mean, some projects might not be realized on all nice fidelity on building a shortage of materials and specialists, as well as resistance from local residents and nature conservation associations. the solar express project base has a number of obstacles, so i'm experts aren't surprised just help them get into the right kind of missed the boat on the transition, renewables inspections, fos and now come build fast enough fall. and that's the problem with lots of people . unfortunately, don't want to start midnight that night and these cloud have been evolving. swift government subsidies ain't to turn the solar express into a high speed project. the change is coming at a slower pace. the switzerland is the only place making the green energy transition a priority. the danish city of stone level is also pushing to become carbon neutral
12:50 am
by 2029. it's already cut greenhouse gas emissions by over 50 percent. the program behind it is a model of danish cooperation involving many participants. both denmark's government, unconscious from industry hilton make was cooled, project 0, a reality zone of the a modestly sized port in town in southern denmark, the local region used to be known for its brick making industry new residential buildings. harking back to that past, have one international awards for low energy consumption. there's symbols of the news unable, which wants to be climate neutral by 2029. the project 0 scheme is a public private cooperation. the a in a gifted state for us top of all list is energy efficiency didn't quite is because
12:51 am
the energy you save the greenest engine oil squeeze bomb that many also use excess heat or waste heat that come from other areas to poured. once we've reduced energy consumption as much as we can, we focus on green energy. so that's the idea behind project 0 project. see it was ops, craft c o 2 emissions and the municipality have already been reduced by 50 percent since 2007. the most recent achievement of note is a supermarket that acts as a kind of research lab all manner of energy saving technical advances are tested here. the most important idea is that what used to be generated when food is refrigerated is not simply released into the air as used to be the case. behind this glass door lies the high tech heart of the green supermarket. i now look, man is proud of project 0 and of the successful collaboration between retail industry and the local communities. we, i took, we have to cooling systems, stunted system on a technical innovation a all way. we can,
12:52 am
we use all the heat that are cooling system producers to see what we can send it back to the district aging network. and because then we should hate other municipalities in, in bomb convincing. huh. oh we, i used to optimize our energy flow in order to reduce our energy costs. and what is that? because i don't see it, it can cost. and if you're trying to save energy, why not mount some solar panels on the roof while you're at? it makes sense not only in denmark is right next to the supermarket as the areas district heating center, as well as local headquarters for the done fost group. the multinational supplies the technology for project 0 cooperation with the municipality is vital for the project. the thank give you how many do you have for us? because denmark is a smaller country, you know, so if this is so we can try things out and implement them faster. we and also say germany is a bigger country with a big population they. so there's a many industries in denmark's drive on this cooperation attorney called them
12:53 am
you're done. foss is one of the many examples off on lift samples is on by. so what's a bit, especially in denmark, is that we care about the environment. we can also implement things very quickly on the normal. i'll be the current as alex estimated on said, take this done foss factory with a work force of 3000 people, which recently went climate neutral. making valves for refrigerators and heat pumps is an energy intensive task, excess waste teeth that generated is either fit into the district cheating network or reuse like the heat produced during welding processes. the van with the, the thoughts and you know, the and we want to reuse the heat. we generate that in monday, but if i'm at so the full above the flame suck some energy and heat which can then be used in production activities. it's a continuous, a continuous process on the, on both products and technologies of all. so we're always asking things like, where do we use the most energy compared to the production park we have here. the
12:54 am
ellen is project zeros, most visible result, a car farai, that's 100 percent electric. it's engine room houses, 30 tons of lithium ion batteries. they are charged at night with wind power above decks on the bridge. the captain is proud of his ship menu store. healy, i'd hate them for the most part. it's fantastic to be involved because this is so new and groundbreaking news and it proves the feasibility of building a vehicle that runs on electricity is bigger than a car. so currently the pride of his own about isn't actually in service right now . the operator says it's carrying out maintenance work until the ellen returns. the old fossil fuel driven ferries. exhaust is polluting the air here again. but project 0 has a much bigger problems. road traffic, or at least the people who don't want to make the switch to
12:55 am
e cars or public transport. the streets are often busy ends on a bow and not just during rush hour, even so the architects have project 0 remain optimistic. it doesn't start to shape shape the greatest success is that we're all talking to each other on an equal footing. we involve the citizens. we all set at a round table, jo, for there's not a bus sending at the head of it. yeah. they're all high for the coast, but all of the table, we all share responsibility for making this a success equipment a, whether it's the local authorities buying cuz housing association companies, all of us already together, the municipal grids for a heat, electricity and gas are now going to be combined to allow for better energy exchange, step by step is unable is continuing on its path to climate neutrality. not wraps things up for this week, but make sure to join this again next time. so most stories from the wells of
12:56 am
science and research, see you then on tamora today, the, [000:00:00;00] the, the,
12:57 am
the face fighting the way to the p, as in twitter, reading goals to germany. but they will, they make it in the end? of course, there's a certain of the fear of failure boxing the way to the top coming up on d w. that makes you'll in good shape,
12:58 am
finds out that if you every day nice is nothing to things with you in a cloak. it can be just for mental single health, new research techniques. so how keeping him safe in good shape in dw the questions you ever lose face. what's the time you suffer that gets taken into a tough, tough tool. did you asked the west to customer there? how valuable does this incident make you feel they get it wrong as well? tough to why is it a try one, ready, now? you go along with that confronting the powerful with tim sebastian conflicts
12:59 am
on d. w. mountain west. i mean, obviously, i know i might just do it and i'm hoping dw newport cost, thanks. trace amount, but it's actually about move join us as we travel around your, facing the history of every day. i'll set something right around the wells, and i need to talk to you back just to subscribe already this and then we'll take you along for the ride. if we speak this term language from culture, some country. how did we become different? ours discrete logic. one of the people in just a 100 days my parents, because of my family, what killed the i'm on
1:00 am
a journey to find out about the russo the 19 are to put you on the site. again. my name is some way to ship. i'm assuming re shaving history. our documentary stops april 6th on dw, the . this is the, the, the news and these are the top stories. this lesson present setting intuitive says the gunman behind the terror attack on across the pony and most of tried to escape to print full suspects, happy and arrested. the so called as nomic state claims. it carried out the attack that killed more than $130.00 people at the cross city hall. the un secretary general has called for a ceasefire to allow more age into gauze them. antonia gutierrez says the world has
