when he flew his turn came to slide the gemini eight and they lost the gemini eight and they not only flew the first talking in space, but then he flew the first emergency return space. the way he had to handle that because he was on the other side of her, out of contact with mission control and that is one of the reasons he and i talk so often and he thought what we should be doing today is basis we should be fine at any permits. we have it and out of earth orbit for 32 years. we have a lot of stuff going on today of commercial space and all of that, which is great in itself. this is like twa and eastern airlines. they are tonight different that we have it in doing. you got to get out the next lawyer and the biggest problem we've got to go beyond the earth is cto at the radiation because once we are out of the protection of the magnetosphere from the radiation, we've got to learn how to deal with it. people say why don't we go to mars? we don't know how to go to mars. it's just that the bull. and if we did come up with the radiation may be exposed to, they would be babbling when they

order and intil american political elite policy elites really get it straight that this quest for gemini in the middle east and using israel as part of the way that the united states consolidates and maintains dominance in the middle east is just not working the united states is actually declining power in the middle east its relationship with israel is an important part of why it's a declining power certainly not the only part but important part of that story and for its own interests the united states needs to reconsider this but the american political establishment is is still very firmly committed to this quest to dominate the middle east it sees a militarily dominant israel as as as useful to that and you know that that sadly is very very slow to change you know and if it possible in your opinion of the israelis could effectively stamp out as a resistance organization i mean because that's what it seems like it wants to do right now what's going on ground and i don't know go from house to house but it seems to me that that's what they want to do and that's what they're going to call

intil american political elites policy elites really get it straight that there is this quest for gemini in the middle east and using israel as part of the way that the united states consolidates and maintains dominance in the middle east is just not working the united states is actually declining power in the middle east its relationship with israel is an important part of why it's a declining power certainly not the only part but important part of that story and for its own interests the united states needs to reconsider this but the american political. is is still very firmly committed to this quest to dominate the middle east it sees a militarily dominant israel as as as useful to that and you know that that sadly is very very slow to change you know and it's impossible in your opinion of the israelis could effectively stamp out as a resistance organization i mean because that's what it seems like it wants to do right now go in ground and i don't know go from house to house but it seems to me that that's what they want to do and that's what they're going to call good declare victory

corporate gemini and it's not only good for democracy to ensure that we have privacy it's not only goodfor the citizens to be able to learn exactly what goes on on. it could potentially be very very good for the european community economically and politically in germany we're seeing internet companies say hey look we've got to get away from this dependency this addiction to american comfort companies we can develop these new systems we can develop new systems based on open source technology rather than a closed proprietary systems that apple and microsoft and all the others have been peddling for years often in contravention by way of e.u. laws and they've been fined massive amounts for control. so i think there is a an awareness that it's good for business as well as good for privacy let's talk about the. revelations i just came out from graham greenwald on the intercept basically talking about how the agency manipulates online holes in internet content i wanted to break down a little bit more about what that consists of. well i think this is something that just of gerbils couldn't hav

since then, -- before, i had lifted off in a titan mission in the last gemini program.i think a lot of people had seen movies taken of the shuttle people when they go up, and they are shaking all over. saturn lifted off so smoothly. we had instruments that told us , andre leaving the ground voice transmissions, but feel it leaving a ground -- the ground, we both commented afterwards we were not somehow attached to the ground anymore. hunting ofhe sort of guidance, but if you look at the movies at liftoff, it was so smooth and those engines were moving at all. host: let's go to marion new castle, delaware. mary, good morning to you. you are on the air with buzz aldrin. all right, let me move on to lidia in woodstock, illinois. independent color. caller: we have beautiful image of the liftoff, except with the challenger spacecraft. i happen to know prior to that launch, that engineers were trying to have that launch postponed. it was postponed several times. they knew that the whole rate was not going to hold up with the cold temperatures. was reported in the newspaper, p

they might not have as much certainty and among gemini in the individual contract and they might note the type of opt out clauses we are saying with lebron james and the miami heat players. that constrains their ability to move to other teams as part of the next free-agent class. >> by the way, is this legal, among league rules for three players -- almost like a cartel of players to say we are going to do this and we are going to demand this? >> great question. i looked into this two years ago when i published an article for the harvard journal of sports entertainment law, looking into the collective-bargaining agreement to actually deem whether this type of cartel, some might call it a collusion, would be permissible under the collective-bargaining agreement, and the answer in the nba is yes . it is different in other sports. major league baseball, for example, explicitly bars this type of behavior on both the sides.nd the players' the nba is different. it is a one-way street and what the players are doing is perfectly permissible under the cba. >> very interesting. thank you so muc

and then came, after the mercury program, the gemini and then came apollo, and that's the celebration that has just occurred. 45 years. i.tit's hard to believeit's bee. and yet that was a day that the world stopped, as they gazed fixed on their television sets as a human from planet earth set foot on another slee celestial . that was quite an accomplishment. but there's a lot more to come. mr. president, i would yield the floor. and i would suggest the absence of a quorum. the presiding officer: the clerk will call the roll. quorum call: quorum call: quorum call: quorum call: quorum call: ms. stabenow: mr. president, i would ask the smungs of the quorum call. the presiding officer: without objection, the quorum call is suspended. ms. stabenow: thank you very much, mr. president. i come to the floor today to join with senator walsh from montana in his effort as he is leading us in the effort to pass the bring jobs home act, which is pretty basic in terms of where our values and prierts are in terms of our -- priorities in terms of our tax policy. we are considering at this point in tim

that is this expression all of the billions that were spent on apollo and gemini and mercury before ite money was not stacked into bags and shipped into space, it was shipped here. an infrastructure of technology and acadre of engineers prowess in aerospace that we still hold in this country today. it is difficult. it is a subtle sell. they think why don't we just spend the x here? we do. organizesmething that our efforts and crystallizes our thoughts and inspires young people. that is a very important point. we do not make a lot of engineers in this country before, and space has proven time and again to capture the imaginations of young people and bring people into the fold, into these technical fields that are difficult and important. host: strong and michael collins laced a few things on the moon, including an american flag, a 1 mission,the apollo messages from 71 world leaders, and a small gold pin shaped like an olive branch. caller: thank you for having me on here. i was just married whenever we television, and we were happy to see our space program progressing so well. my wife a
