and that will tend to that will eventually control the central pacific railroad. and the southern pacific will be a monopoly. this is going to be the southern pacific not the central pacific. what it does is take the weakness of the transcontinental, and turn them into a strength. the weakness is the transcontinental cannot compete, and this is the thing that people don't understand about these railroads. they cannot compete with -- . the cheapest way to get goods from california, back to the east to europe or australia, is going to be by sea. it's two out you can do it, and this is the most important. it's a steam ship company, he put on the ship it take it to panama, you unloaded onto other ships and you get into the gulf ports of these countries. there is no way in the world, that the railroads can compete with this for carrying freight, the freight is what they are. all these railroads are freight railroads or not passenger railroads. and this is jay gould, who is a partner who is trying to compete with them. with the steam ship companies. he says it's outrageo

in the end 12,000 chinese men were hired to work on the transcontinental railroad, central pacific and here we see a famous photograph. of the two trains meeting at a place called promontory point, utah. i don't has anybody here ever been to promontory point. i don't know why they call it promontory point there is nothing prominent about it. it's on a very flat salt bed lake. and if you drive there, there's just one little range of station and if more than eight people show up, they will rev up two little miniature engines and you can shake hands in replica of this famous moment. well, the photograph shows the two sections meeting and as some of you already know there's something very very wrong with this photograph. what is it? you know trying there are no chinese in this photograph. there were not invited. that's known to some people, but what's even more interesting is the railroad did not offer a discount or free passage. so the chinese men who worked on this project walked back from utah following the line. they had just built some of the branched off to the branch lines to work a

it's now entering the central pacific and where it goes from here is really important.ted out a moment ago is called an orbital path and the path that satellite space debris and junk space as it and a half gaits the planet. they have been crunching the numbers and where it could make its re-entry point and landfall. they focused on the south pacific just between australia and new zealand. the last update seven or eight hours ago so we are still anticipating another update here relative shortly. but these orbital paths i talked about here, the yellow lines are actually the uncertainty just after the predicted re-entry time which, by the way, is about just after midnight on sunday morning eastern standard time just to put it in perspective. every yellow line that you see there puts other cities and other locations on the map at play. if the satellite or rather the rocket was to make a re-entry time prior to the expected time that you see at the top of my tv screen, you can see other locations across the pacific and to south america and eventually into africa at play as we

to get it done at which point we begin shifting over to twin axes axes of offense through the central pacific and all so through the southwest specific and bypassing a lot of japanese. i would just know that the conditions for being able to do that though. were in some ways dependent on the attrition that we inflict on the japanese navy and particularly their air force during 1943 it which you don't see happening behind the scenes is there's this immense shift in the correlation of strength within the pacific that the americans are building up their logistical apparatus were introducing new types of aircraft and in the process in new guinea and the solomons there is this constant attritional engine going on that's chewing up their air forces and their navy. so the island hopping campaign would not have been as quick to unfold had we not done a lot of that fieldwork and when i say field work, i mean killing that had to be done against the japanese in 1943 to kind of set up the dominoes for 1944. the next question seems to be geared towards neil comes to us from jim where gymnast and super gymn

in the end, 12,000 chinese men were hired to work on the transcontinental railroad, ll centraled p pacifichere we see a famous photograph of thehe two trains meeting at juace called promatary point in utah. there's nothing predominant about it. little range it's on a very flat salt bed lake. if you drivelitt lethere, thereu one little ranger station. if more than eight people show s up, they will rev up two little miniature engineses and you can shake hands in replica of this o moment. there's something very, very wen wrong with this photograph. what is it?t? there are no chinese in this pa photograph. so invited.dtgege that's known to some people. what's more interesting is the railroad did not offer a to w discount of free passage, so the chinese men who worked on this walked back following the line they just built. and they didn't realize whathin they had done, what they had done was to strike a death nail for the chinese of the western territories in california and for the indigenous people. now the trip from new york city to sacramento changed from 166 days to 11 days over land. d and

advanced through new guinea and the philippines and further north through the islands of the central pacific that had been gathering pace since the landings on guadal canal which you can see right right down the bottom of that map there in the solomon islands in august. 142 the operation codenamed iceberg was was an astonishing logistical feat for the assault echelon alone more than 183,000 troops and 747,000 tons of cargo were loaded onto 430 assault transports and landing ships at 11 different ports from seattle to late in the philippines. the bulk of resupply would come from the west coast of the united states a distance of 6,250 nautical miles or 26 days sailing most of the 440,000 allied servicemen navy air and army who fought in the campaign were american they included the men of the us fifth fleet the most powerful in history with more than 20 fleet aircraft carriers 10 battleships and 1200 aircraft. we can just move on one slide we can now see the actual landings themselves. he's the landing crafts on off the her gucci beaches as we can see here on 1st of april these things interesti

the central pacific, the western side, was maybe 90% chinese who built it, but then i have a differenttive of why the chinese are not found here. this is an iconic picture, because it's a good picture. both trains are here, shaking hands, exchanging bottles of wine. but this was a posed picture taken after the ceremony. if you see picture of the actual ceremony, and russell did have a picture of that, showing the three chinese hammering the last spike, because when leland stanford tried to hit the spike, he missed totally and he hit the rail, and then the chinese finally put in the last spike. we know they were there, and the trains were further apart, because they had to put in the last two rails. they were 28 feet, and the motor engines were further apart. so, when they are together like this, you notice afterwards, the chinese were there, and why were they missing here? because right after the ceremony, all the vip's left and the chinese were invited by the manager of construction to go to his private car to be honored, toasted, and fed. at the time this picture was taken, the chine
