why do i start my remarks with pluto? i do so because of the major achievement it was for our nasa scientists to fly a craft close enough to pluto to take that picture. that's a heck of an accomplishment by our american nasa scientists. it is not their only one. while this craft was shooting by pluto taking these pictures, they had a rover rolling around on the surface of mars. they sent a vehicle the size of an s.u.v. to the surface of mars and are driving it around. do you think these scientists know what they're talking about when they say something as simple as climate change is real? of course they do. but our republican friends can't acknowledge that. they've even said that these nasa scientists are in on a hoax. can you imagine anything more demeaning to the people who put a rover on mars and shot this picture of pluto to say, oh, they don't know what they're talking about. they're in on a hoax. forget about it. that's just not true. the real issue is this: here is kentucky's electric generation fuel mix. that's it

pluto was called plutonium. every discovery opened and lawrence responded by doing new cyclotrons, each one bigger and more powerful and much more expensive than the last. soon every university that aspired to the first rank of research institution wanted its own cyclotron. lawrence was happy to oblige sending his associates into the world showing them how to do it in freely showing his own designs all in the name of expanding what became his cyclotron empire. it wasn't only his real scientific accomplishment but his personality as well. so perfect for a country striving to emerge from the shadow of european scientific tradition. he was useful and engaging. very different from from the popular image of the mad scientist locked away in his lap with wild hair and a little bit strange. ernest was sober, businesslike and very down to earth. he. he went to bed and three-piece suits. the editor went to visit him at berkeley and came home enthralled by this energetic man who was amazingly easy to talk to and completely

. >>> pluto used to be our smallest planet, it is a downgraded, i think they call it a planeter to orething like that we sent this machine up there, a spacecraft, it's called the new horizons mission. it has been senting back amazing pictures and information from the planeter to. a local university professor is among 30 people who created the machine and sold nasa on its importance. so far, that spacecraft has been traveling for about a decade and it has gone 3 billion miles. >> we are finding whole new planets. some are earth-like, many are not, but whole new worlds and then to be a part of a project where you see something, you see a picture of a planet that has never been seen by humans before. >> that has got to be so incredibly gratifying. anyway, summers will share the latest from the pluto mission tonight at 7:30 at george mason's fairfax campus. >>> our favorite little panda cub at the national zoo is nine days old now, beginning to get his black and white markings, the markings are visible around his arm, high aye and one of his ears much the cub's eyes won't actually open fo

grew up in new mexico, and one of our neighbors is the one who discovered pluto. he was the head of optics at white sands missile range. he showed me how to make telescopes and fwrained mirrors. this was the prototypical experience that led me into virtual reality. i remember that so clearly. and just the sense of magic you can get there standing your contact with the universe with technology. it is the best thing. >> thank you. i am going to do two more questions so you can start thinking about the questions you are going to have. when we were talking before, they both agreed we wanted to have as much interaction with you as possible. just two more questions here, and then we will do the interactive side of it. as i am sure both of you know, doug's project, the historical one, was in many ways a failure. it succeeded in brings us things burks as far as funding, it ended up as a failure. >> wrong metric. >> i could hear that. >> what a loser. \[laughter] >> what role does failure, however you want to define it, play in what you do? is it an important aspect of it
