At the same time, I mean, there is the infrastructure that is needed for the booming economy, for the booming market of the digital economy. Rosetta ? The Rosetta mission, that just dropped Philae on the surface of the comet.
And we'll just leave it at that. Rosetta is really one of the most challenging space missions ever conducted.A six billion kilometer cruise for over 10 years, as we talked about, and all of the four gravity assists.
That's one of the US instruments from Alan Stern and SWRI. Rosetta is very good and it has an in situ measurement of these isotopal ratios.
So we get to-- after that, we turn this the spacecraft off, spin it up, and pray. Rosetta , the mission, of course refers to the Rosetta Stone, which is the way of decoding Egyptian hieroglyphics.
And she doesn't speak to her. Rosetta has sort of this crush on Michele, I think, through the whole thing.
to a brain that doesn't deeply understand it? And how do you then piece stuff together? Maybe you can go to the early days. Sort of the Rosetta Stone of cuneiform also. - That's important. Well, the first thing is, is that how the cuneiform writing system works, because the crucial point, once you see
I gather what it's about is they sent basically miners to space. But Rosetta was just amazing.
At the same time, I mean, there is the infrastructure that is needed for the booming economy, for the booming market of the digital economy. The Rosetta Mission? Huh?
So what you see here is an image of our planet Earth taken by Rosetta . And Rosetta may be known to you as the satellite which was flying to a faraway comet which was releasing a sound called Philae, which was landing on the comet and actually taking measurements.
And this song that we're about to do is-- in the context of the play, Mother Bell has recently died. And Rosetta sees Marie as someone that Mother Bell would have loved to know that Rosetta was connected to. So there's a moment in the play where I tell her that my mother has died, and I ask her would you
to do both by record companies and also by her Mother Bell, who encouraged her to praise in any way she knew. So Rosetta did go out into the real world, as it were, and she did some records with bigger bands and stuff that was a little more-- or a lot more secular. So in the context of our show at a certain point Marie, who has previously allowed herself
The play deals-- and for those of you who have seen it, know-- the play deals with a lot of really complex themes, not only about race, but about sexuality, And Rosetta went, I want you.
1839 yes yes it is there I can have great titfield Street and when I was writing Rosetta uh no when I was writing the mesmerist I wanted My Heroine Cordelia Preston to live in Bloomsbury so I walked around Bloomsbury thinking I've got to find she hasn't got any
Before I get into the clock, Stewart Brand had talked about this idea of a very long-term library and Alex mentioned The Rosetta Project, so I just did just want to touch on it. Early on in this, we realized we needed something that could also record culture over the kind of time scale that we're talking about, not just inspire
I'm just going to show you some of these last few slides that I took while doing these last installs just to give you We have The Rosetta Project and lectures.
I did four hours a day. I bought Rosetta Stone. I bought Japanese for Dummies.
Basically there's two sets of terminology for the geography on Churyumov Gerasimenko. There is the Egyptian Rosetta theme. And then there's, of course, everybody sees this and says this is a rubber duck.
That's one of the US instruments from Alan Stern and SWRI. There's Rosetta , then there's the science planning.
Yeah, we're all about new plays. And "Marie and Rosetta " is a great new play. It's written by George Brant.
I was amazed because I'd been a huge Chuck Berry fan and a lot of the riffs that Chuck Berry plays are directly from Sister Rosetta . So here was this play that was not only celebrating this woman, who sadly is not known, but it was also talking about the history of 20th-century music.
And so for me working on this music was very organic to who I already am and just trying to figure out how to bring some of myself to it, as well as honoring Rosetta without trying to copy her or mimic her in any way, but to do some of the things that she did in the music. Jason was-- as I was learning the music, our musical director, Jason, we had worked together before, so he knows me.
The play deals-- and for those of you who have seen it, know-- the play deals with a lot of really complex themes, not only about race, but about sexuality, She said Rosetta said she was lonely.
And some had been searching for a lot long before this song appeared in Terry Zwigoff's movie. So here is the Rosetta stone, but I'll never be able to find it.
because he managed to guess-- he had-- actually, ironically, it was the throne names that enabled them to crack the code. Did they have the Rosetta stone at that point? Yeah, well, the Rosetta stone-- it was the discovery that-- yes, absolutely.
know what's happening if you choose as I did for my novel about the Rosetta Stone which is called Rosetta I chose 1795 because I knew the stone was discovered by Napoleon's troops in 1799 so I knew that Napoleonic wars were on I knew
One of his innovations was to boost computation by pooling together processing power from idle computers in homes, schools, and libraries that volunteered to install his software called Rosetta at Home. - As part of it, there was a screensaver that showed basically the course of the protein folding calculation.
people to think long-term. And we looked at the Rosetta Stone itself, which had two languages and three different scripts, and it was the key to deciphering hieroglyphics. But even with that, it took 50 years of effort to decode hieroglyphics.
That's one of the US instruments from Alan Stern and SWRI. Some of the major science discoveries from Rosetta , there's a lot of theories about the source of Earth's water.
And so then I immediately-- thanks to you guys, I went to YouTube. And I started researching more about Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and, lo and behold, there were all these incredible songs. And here was this amazing woman who started in gospel in the 1930s and then kind of moved into more popular music in the 40s and 50s.
I'm introducing. Yeah, yeah, I said I was going to introduce it. So there's-- something factual about Sister Rosetta was that she was very close with her mother, Mother Bell, she called her. Katie Bell Nubin was her mother.
Katie Bell Nubin was her mother. And Mother Bell was very instrumental in Rosetta feeling and having the freedom to not just sing in the church where she grew up, but to be able to utilize her gifts in other areas
I grew up in the church, so gospel music was very much a part of my life growing up. And my mother knew of Sister Rosetta . That's more her era.
It's creepy. So, Kecia, you brought up the fact that when you were singing whether or not you and the musical director deciding when to bring in Kecia and when to bring in Sister Rosetta and that that brings in a really interesting question around the fact that you guys are playing real people, that you could go online.
The play deals-- and for those of you who have seen it, know-- the play deals with a lot of really complex themes, not only about race, but about sexuality, I want us to be Rosetta and Marie.
The play deals-- and for those of you who have seen it, know-- the play deals with a lot of really complex themes, not only about race, but about sexuality, The question is why did Rosetta -- you know, Rosetta was a big star at this point.
The play deals-- and for those of you who have seen it, know-- the play deals with a lot of really complex themes, not only about race, but about sexuality, And just in terms of Marie and Rosetta .
And I've been trying to learn how to speak again. And there's a program called Rosetta Stone for English. Turns out, it is very good.
So what I'm going to talk about? I'm going to talk about the Rosetta mission in its journey to this amazing object, which you see in the bottom here. You see much more of it called 67P Churyumov-Gerasimenko.
once thought of as messengers of doom and destruction, and yet so enchanting, if we were to catch one, a staggeringly ambitious plan. -Are you talking about the Rosetta mission? -Throw me the probe.
I'm not really sure this is quite a selfie, because this is actually Philae has an array of seven cameras around the outside. And it took a picture of Rosetta , the spacecraft here and the solar panel. And I suppose you call this photobombing by Mars in the background.
So we get to-- after that, we turn this the spacecraft off, spin it up, and pray. So we built Twitter into Rosetta years before Twitter even existed.
So we get to-- after that, we turn this the spacecraft off, spin it up, and pray. We measure-- as the material flows past Rosetta , we measure the gas and the dust through mass spectroscopy, see what it's actually made of.
And then we have one of the two women that this opera is about. She sings the role of Rosetta , the young girl who goes out into the countryside with her mother during World War II, and faces all kinds of trials and tribulations. She had a wonderful debut with us on Saturday night.
She's on stage a lot. And the singing that Marco writes for Rosetta is completely indicative of what her character is going through at that particular moment.
And she doesn't speak to her. And then Cesira relates that to Rosetta , which kind of brings her back to herself.
So think of it like Rosetta Stone for your ovaries.
All leopards have are what are called rosettas , which is a black circle with yellow in the middle.
In the first year, teams could not achieve scores higher than 40. The early front runner was an algorithm called Rosetta , created by University of Washington biologist David Baker. One of his innovations was to boost computation by pooling together processing power from idle computers in homes, schools, and libraries that volunteered
language again language is so important happened in Rosetta Stone is so important once I realized that it's
And the reason is anatomy ends up being the Rosetta Stone for self-protection.
