So seeing him interact with other Stanford schools. Star It is a time-tested and very valuable framework for, especially for interviews, situation, task,
I also heard you telling um I think it was Joe Rogan, you were telling a story of one particular star that reduces in its intensity by 20%.Yeah, there is a star that that oscillates.
envelope. And the envelope then would absorb most of the energy. In fact, that was an episode of Star Trek. They meet a star that is totally enveloped by a metal shell. The aliens left itcenturies ago, but you know, it can't be ruled out. The theory goes that an advanced civilization will surround it
looking up at all these stars and you started wondering. You know that each of these points of light is some distant star just as hot and luminous as our sun. And you wondered, do any of thosestars have planets circling around them?
And what you might hope to see is the star at the center of the picture and then a few fainter dots surrounding the star that would represent the planets.However, when you actually try to do this, you get an image more like this.
Now let me show you another famous discovery from Doppler method. This is a star called 51 Pegasai. It is a sunlike star . I think it's about 50 light yearsaway. And it was announced in 1995 that an exoplanet was orbiting this star . And
close to being a circular a circle. It is a highly elongated ellipse with the star very close to one end of the ellipse. And every time the planet comes close to the star , that's when thegravitational force is the strongest, when the two objects are closest together, causing the planet to speed
exoplanets around other stars , too. And so, even if this were some very distant star , so far away that it only looks like a point of light in the sky, we might be able to tell that it'shappening because when the planet goes in front of it, the star appears to get slightly fainter. The planet blocks a
that is because there is a giant planet, a Jupiter sized planet whose orbit carries it directly in front of that star from our particular point of view in the galaxy. And then it repeats every day. So in this case, what we get tomeasure, we get to measure the period again from the time it takes between these events. And from the amount of light that's blocked, we can measure the
conditions. So that's the Mustafar like planet from uh from that third Star Wars star . But in our solar system, you know, Mercury is too small. We can't detect it around a distant star and the giant
I've never seen that approach taken with a biopic like you did with this. "Star Trek" forums. It was like the majority of what was on the internet when it first began.

And I've always loved Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars, and they all kind of serendipitously came together under one roof. Star Wars has been a part of my life from the very beginning, and it's always brought me back home.And for me, I was a child of the '80s, so pop culture was my life.
Cool. But with TV, with "Top Chef," I feel like the new generation have this mentality of this rock star mentality. You're a chef.It's cool. It's badass.
It was like other forces were taking over. "Star Wars" fans are not weird.
Even if we had executed each storyline at the kind of utmost, you'd still have scenes where you have a legitimate movie star on the screen.And then you have scenes where you don't.
You mentioned, just to build on that, you mentioned also some cross genre stuff. "Star Wars" is largely considered science fiction. There's space opera in there.
It just fuels-- and it becomes a weird contest. "Star Wars" trivia is something weird. You know more than I do, just to be clear.
But there, we've swallowed it. "Star Trek" arguably doesn't promise superpowers. But it does hold out the possibility of evolved change, a belief that human beings may never
The sun, remember, will extinguish itself in 5 billion, not 5 million years. "Star Trek" urges care in carefully carving out our human destinies. We could do worse than to consult the science of optimism.
And then ever since then, "Star Wars" comes along. "Star Wars" kind of kills all that. It betrays it. And then ever since then, it's just been pop culture junk that you get, like '80s movies, '90s movies, up until today.
And it's part of what makes that film more powerful. "Star Wars" was the same way. There's a lot of science fiction up until then, where they're shooting it-- if you've seen films like "Forbidden Planet" or like other science fiction
But he's also an ally to the rebellion. "Star Wars" began to pick this up, maybe a little slowly.
I think it's cheesy to say I think it changed my life, but yeah, it had to have. "Star Wars" changed your life. "Star Wars" changed my life.
"Star Wars" changed your life. "Star Wars" changed my life. I get it. My local-- this is not like that at all.
We had an amazing exhibit at the science museum about the Russian race for space. Star City was a massive feature of it.I don't know if anybody else went to it.

So one is that galaxies start down here. Star formation rate is increasing downward, and the compactness of the galaxy is increasing to the right.So they start not very compact.

"Star Wars" engages intriguingly with the light side and the dark side.
"Star Wars" is all about fathers and sons.
"Star Wars" is primal, and it is a fairy tale, but it's not just a retelling of what Joseph Campbell had to say.
"Star Trek," by the way-- I'm also a fan of "Star Trek,"-- has a similar feature.
