not only marked a significant milestone in the

00:00:40.750 --> 00:00:43.810
United States' space exploration efforts, but

00:00:43.810 --> 00:00:46.490

in ninth grade, leading to serious mental health

00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:48.019
issues. Modern cannabis strains are significantly

00:06:48.019 --> 00:06:51.259
more potent than those used decades ago, increasing

00:06:51.259 --> 00:06:54.000
addiction risks and potential for psychosis.

00:06:54.860 --> 00:06:57.920

00:09:13.700 --> 00:09:20.039
show. Let's talk tech. Amazon is stepping into

00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.779
the space race, launching its Project Cooper

00:09:22.779 --> 00:09:27.580
satellites, now totaling 27 in orbit. This venture

00:09:27.580 --> 00:09:30.720
aims to compete with SpaceX's Starlink amidst

00:09:30.720 --> 00:09:33.059
growing concerns about orbital overcrowding.

00:09:33.580 --> 00:09:36.580
With numerous companies planning to deploy over

00:09:36.580 --> 00:09:40.080
1 ,000 satellites each, the potential for catastrophic

00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:43.950
collisions is increasing. A recent report from

00:09:43.950 --> 00:09:46.710
the European Space Agency indicates that over

00:09:46.710 --> 00:09:50.129
2 ,500 objects were launched into low -Earth

00:09:50.129 --> 00:09:53.029
orbit this year alone, creating a significant

00:09:53.029 --> 00:09:56.909
risk. Experts warn that without comprehensive

00:09:56.909 --> 00:09:59.929
regulations, the situation could escalate into

00:09:59.929 --> 00:10:02.970
a dangerous cascade of collisions, jeopardizing

00:10:02.970 --> 00:10:11.639
access to space for future missions. The upcoming

especially with Top Gun Maverick director Joseph

00:10:18.580 --> 00:10:22.659

Don Johnson's James Crockett and Philip Michael

00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:30.759
Thomas' Ricardo Tubbs over 40 years ago. While

00:10:30.759 --> 00:10:33.539
Kosinski's ability to balance action and character

00:10:33.539 --> 00:10:36.450
development is impressive, It is screenwriter

00:10:36.450 --> 00:10:39.549
Dan Gilroy's involvement that truly elevates

00:10:39.549 --> 00:10:43.250
anticipation. Known for Nightcrawler, Gilroy

00:10:43.250 --> 00:10:46.269
is expected to explore the darker, seedier side

00:10:46.269 --> 00:10:50.470

of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:04.740 --> 00:11:07.740
American science fiction writer Ray Bradbury.

00:11:08.539 --> 00:11:13.440

00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:17.620
