Like 22 years ago, today, in 2004, a 00:00:19.620 --> 00:00:22.280 group of Harvard students launched a social networking 00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:25.879 site that let college peers create profiles and 00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:30.039 connect across campus. The platform rapidly reshaped 00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.920 online social interaction by making networking 00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.320 personal, scalable, and central to how people 00:00:36.320 --> 00:00:39.799 shared news and built communities. Today, we 00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:44.600 call that social network Facebook. So now you 00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:49.100 know.

According 00:09:28.690 --> 00:09:32.389 to a new study overseen by Fatih Karuia, what 00:09:32.389 --> 00:09:35.850 spaceflight does to human fertility remains dangerously 00:09:35.850 --> 00:09:38.970 under -examined. As commercial flights become 00:09:38.970 --> 00:09:41.860 more common, Guidelines are needed before things 00:09:41.860 --> 00:09:45.019 get out of hand.
