Exciting New Exoplanet Discovery, Evolving Dark Energy, and Insights into the Moon's Magnetic Field

In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover the discovery of a potential new exoplanet, TOI 2818C, located over a thousand light years away in the constellation Papus. This intriguing planetary candidate is estimated to be 10 to 16 times the size of Earth and orbits its host star in less than 16 Earth days. We delve into the innovative transit timing variations method employed by astronomers, which revealed the presence of this companion planet alongside the hot Jupiter TOI 2818b, and discuss the implications for our understanding of planetary formation in hot Jupiter systems.

Dark Energy's Mysterious Evolution

We also explore a groundbreaking study suggesting that dark energy may be evolving over cosmic time scales. Utilizing data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), scientists are piecing together the largest three-dimensional map of the universe, revealing hints that dark energy's influence could be changing. This discovery could challenge current cosmological models and reshape our understanding of the universe's fate.

Dynamic Lunar Magnetic Field

Additionally, we examine findings from China's Chang'e 6 mission, which indicate that the Moon's magnetic field has been more dynamic and lasted longer than previously thought. The analysis of lunar samples reveals a resurgence of the magnetic field around 2.8 billion years ago, suggesting that the Moon's interior remains geologically active, challenging earlier beliefs about its magnetic history.

for broadcast on the 26th of March


00:00:05.799 --> 00:00:08.950
2025 coming up on Spaceime a new


00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:12.070
exoplanet discovery using a new system a


00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:14.230
new study claims dark energy could be


00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:17.189
evolving over cosmic time scales and


00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:19.429
claims the moon's magnetic field is more


00:00:19.439 --> 00:00:21.750
dynamic and lasted far longer than


00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:24.230
previously thought all that and more


00:00:24.240 --> 00:00:27.670
coming up on Spaceime


00:00:27.680 --> 00:00:31.780
welcome to Space Time with Stuart


00:00:31.790 --> 00:00:39.240
[Music]




00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:48.549
Garry astronomers have discovered a


00:00:48.559 --> 00:00:50.950
potential new exoplanet the new


00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:53.310
planetary candidate cataloged as TOI


00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.389
2818C is estimated to be between 10 and


00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:58.790
16 times the size of the Earth but with


00:00:58.800 --> 00:01:01.310
an orbital period less than 16 Earth


00:01:01.320 --> 00:01:03.750
days it was found just over a thousand


00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:05.429
lighty years away in the planetary


00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:08.149
system in the constellation Papus a


00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:09.910
report in the Astrophysical Journal


00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:12.390
claims the new discovery was made using


00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:15.670
transit timing variations these involved


00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:17.590
using the timing of a known planet


00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:19.990
transiting across the host star to infer


00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:21.990
the presence of a second exoplanet in


00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:24.789
the system after identifying an unusual


00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:26.469
trend in the movement of the hot Jupiter


00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:29.429
planet TOI 2818b the authors ran a


00:01:29.439 --> 00:01:30.670
series of model


00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:33.030
simulations they pointed to the presence


00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:35.590
of a small planetary companion the


00:01:35.600 --> 00:01:37.590
study's lead author Ben Monte from the


00:01:37.600 --> 00:01:39.749
University of New South Wales says it's


00:01:39.759 --> 00:01:41.429
rare for hot Jupiters to have other


00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:43.590
planets near them so this new planet


00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:45.510
could have serious implications for how


00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:47.910
hot Jupiters form and in turn it could


00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:49.550
help astronomers understand other


00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:52.469
systems an exoplanet is any planet


00:01:52.479 --> 00:01:54.789
outside our solar system like the


00:01:54.799 --> 00:01:56.550
planets in our solar system which orbit


00:01:56.560 --> 00:01:59.069
the sun most exoplanets orbit a host


00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:03.190
star so far over 5,500 exoplanets have


00:02:03.200 --> 00:02:05.429
been confirmed by NASA but there are


00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:07.590
trillions more expected to be out there


00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:09.589
waiting to be discovered and that's just


00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:12.150
in our Milky Way galaxy of the known


00:02:12.160 --> 00:02:14.790
exoplanets around 500 are known to be


00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:17.510
hot Jupiters these are hot gaseous


00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:19.430
worlds like Jupiter but orbiting


00:02:19.440 --> 00:02:21.830
extremely close to their host stars


00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:23.750
usually each orbit takes just a few


00:02:23.760 --> 00:02:26.470
hours or a couple of days at most even


00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:28.390
lesser known are companion planets the


00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.229
hot Jupiters planets orbiting the same


00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:32.710
star as the hot Jupiter one way of


00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:34.630
hunting exoplanets is known as the


00:02:34.640 --> 00:02:37.190
transit method it involves monitoring


00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:38.949
planets as they pass in front of a star


00:02:38.959 --> 00:02:41.350
as seen from Earth when this happens the


00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:43.430
planet briefly blocks out some of the


00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:46.150
stars light that dip in stellar light


00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:47.750
the regularity of the dip and its


00:02:47.760 --> 00:02:49.910
duration can tell astronomers a lot


00:02:49.920 --> 00:02:52.550
about the planet's orbit and size and if


00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:54.390
it's close enough for a spectra to be


00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:56.470
taken scientists can also find out about


00:02:56.480 --> 00:02:58.390
the planet's atmosphere possibly even


00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:01.430
its composition m says planets usually


00:03:01.440 --> 00:03:03.589
make good clocks and an exoplanet's


00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:05.270
orbit around a star should remain


00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.509
reasonably stable ensuring consistent


00:03:07.519 --> 00:03:10.390
timing between transits however if you


00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:12.229
have more than one planet at play in the


00:03:12.239 --> 00:03:13.830
system then the planets will tend to


00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:15.190
push each other around with their


00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:17.509
gravity and that will make each of the


00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:19.589
planets speed up and slow down just a


00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:21.750
little bit this means the transits will


00:03:21.760 --> 00:03:23.430
arrive slightly earlier or slightly


00:03:23.440 --> 00:03:25.270
later than normal and you can then use


00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:27.270
that to infer another planet is causing


00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:30.149
these timing variations monte colleagues


00:03:30.159 --> 00:03:31.990
made their discovery by going through


00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:33.910
three years of data from the NASA


00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:35.990
transiting exoplanet survey satellite


00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:40.110
tests one known exoplanet is TOI


00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:42.390
2818b it was discovered using the


00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:45.030
transit method however when analyzing


00:03:45.040 --> 00:03:46.949
the data the authors noticed that its


00:03:46.959 --> 00:03:49.830
transit dips were not evenly spaced they


00:03:49.840 --> 00:03:52.710
were occurring closer together over time


00:03:52.720 --> 00:03:54.309
something must have been influencing


00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:56.789
this planet's orbit and that prompted a


00:03:56.799 --> 00:03:59.270
closer investigation the tricky thing is


00:03:59.280 --> 00:04:00.710
there are a number of plausible


00:04:00.720 --> 00:04:02.630
explanations as to why a planet should


00:04:02.640 --> 00:04:05.350
arrive early for example tides of the


00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:07.350
star itself can impact the gravitational


00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:09.190
pull on the planet exactly the same as


00:04:09.200 --> 00:04:10.550
what we see between the moon and the


00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:12.710
earth but when this is the case the


00:04:12.720 --> 00:04:14.630
planet is typically spiraling inwards


00:04:14.640 --> 00:04:17.189
about to get swallowed by the star that


00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:18.789
would make the transits of this planet


00:04:18.799 --> 00:04:21.749
arrive earlier and earlier so Monte and


00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:23.030
colleagues needed to work through all


00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:25.430
the possible variations of explanations


00:04:25.440 --> 00:04:27.670
that could cause the timing variation


00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:30.230
seen in the data after extensive


00:04:30.240 --> 00:04:32.310
examination the only option that fitted


00:04:32.320 --> 00:04:34.230
all the observations was the existence


00:04:34.240 --> 00:04:36.629
of another planet in the system the


00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:38.550
first exoplanets were discovered back in


00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:41.350
the mid1 1990s while scientists haven't


00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:43.189
yet found an exoplanet that can support


00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:45.270
life like the Earth they have identified


00:04:45.280 --> 00:04:48.150
a number of Earth-sized rocky exoplanets


00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:49.670
some of which are in the habitable zones


00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:52.150
of their host stars that's the region


00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:53.909
around the star where temperatures would


00:04:53.919 --> 00:04:56.230
allow liquid water essential for life as


00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:58.110
we know it to exist on a planet's


00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:01.110
surface monte says whenever astronomers


00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:03.110
find new planets they throw up new


00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:04.870
puzzles about how these planets are


00:05:04.880 --> 00:05:06.870
formed and hot Jupiters are a great


00:05:06.880 --> 00:05:09.189
example of that hot Jupiters were the


00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:11.110
first exoplanets discovered but


00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:13.510
scientists really don't fully understand


00:05:13.520 --> 00:05:15.670
exactly how they form or even why


00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:17.510
they're there we know that when stars


00:05:17.520 --> 00:05:19.270
have planets and these planets are


00:05:19.280 --> 00:05:21.110
transiting so they pass along our line


00:05:21.120 --> 00:05:22.950
of sight blocking the star these planets


00:05:22.960 --> 00:05:25.110
make excellent clocks they orbit their


00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:27.909
stars perfectly in motion every time


00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:29.350
they come back around they block the


00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:31.270
star in the same way for the same amount


00:05:31.280 --> 00:05:33.029
of time and so when that doesn't happen


00:05:33.039 --> 00:05:35.110
if these transits are occurring early or


00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:36.950
late we know something else is going on


00:05:36.960 --> 00:05:38.230
there's something else in the system


00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:39.830
that's causing some sort of dynamics to


00:05:39.840 --> 00:05:41.670
occur and that's affecting the planet


00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:43.110
that we see and so that's exactly what


00:05:43.120 --> 00:05:44.950
happened here this is one star that we


00:05:44.960 --> 00:05:47.110
knew had a planet already a hot Jupiter


00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:49.110
so every 4 days this giant planet went


00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:51.430
around the star blocked the light but in


00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:53.270
our team working with a PhD student here


00:05:53.280 --> 00:05:55.430
Brendan McKe we found that this hot


00:05:55.440 --> 00:05:57.189
Jupiter was arriving earlier and earlier


00:05:57.199 --> 00:05:58.629
and earlier so it looked like it was


00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:00.230
almost spiraling into its host star


00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:01.990
which led us to think something else was


00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:03.749
going on here to look at the system more


00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:05.749
closely and ultimately we're able to


00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:07.350
determine that the thing that's going on


00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:08.710
is that there's another planet in the


00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:11.629
system now this is not unusual a lot of


00:06:11.639 --> 00:06:14.390
exoplanets that we find have siblings


00:06:14.400 --> 00:06:16.469
orbiting the host star but uh we don't


00:06:16.479 --> 00:06:18.469
see that very often with hot Jupiters


00:06:18.479 --> 00:06:20.150
yeah that's right so we know that most


00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:22.070
planets are in multiple systems like the


00:06:22.080 --> 00:06:23.430
solar system right there's eight planets


00:06:23.440 --> 00:06:27.110
here and about 10% of all of the planet


00:06:27.120 --> 00:06:29.350
systems that we see have these timing


00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.350
variations so we see the interactions


00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:33.189
between two planets these are typically


00:06:33.199 --> 00:06:35.749
planets near what we call a resonance


00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.150
and so they orbit each other in some


00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:40.790
ratio of periods so say 10 days and 20


00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:42.070
days or something like that so you get


00:06:42.080 --> 00:06:44.309
the same effect of pushing a child on a


00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:45.749
swing that every time the two planets


00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:47.430
come to each other at the same point in


00:06:47.440 --> 00:06:48.870
the orbit they give each other a little


00:06:48.880 --> 00:06:50.390
kick and so these little kicks add up


00:06:50.400 --> 00:06:51.590
and all of a sudden you get a big


00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:53.990
perturbation what is rare is to see this


00:06:54.000 --> 00:06:56.029
in a hot Jupiter system there's only


00:06:56.039 --> 00:06:59.430
about five or so hot Jupiters that have


00:06:59.440 --> 00:07:00.870
any sort of companion that has been


00:07:00.880 --> 00:07:02.629
detected meaning another planet and so


00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:04.550
this is a fairly small sample that we've


00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:06.150
added to and these are important because


00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:07.510
they help us understand how these hot


00:07:07.520 --> 00:07:08.870
Jupiters form we're talking about


00:07:08.880 --> 00:07:10.629
something near the hot Jupiter not


00:07:10.639 --> 00:07:12.390
something much further out I take it


00:07:12.400 --> 00:07:14.710
that's right so we weren't able to


00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:16.550
uniquely say exactly where the other


00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:19.110
planet is there's a solution at 8 days


00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:20.710
so the hot Jupiter goes around every 4


00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:22.469
days this other planet could be at 8


00:07:22.479 --> 00:07:24.790
days or 12 days or inside of the hot


00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:26.550
Jupiter even at 2 days and there's a


00:07:26.560 --> 00:07:27.909
solution that works with all of these we


00:07:27.919 --> 00:07:29.510
need more data to figure out in which of


00:07:29.520 --> 00:07:31.589
these orbits it is but we know that yeah


00:07:31.599 --> 00:07:33.670
in a resonance with the hot Jupiter


00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:35.270
there's a planet that's probably between


00:07:35.280 --> 00:07:37.270
about 5 and 10 Earth masses and that's


00:07:37.280 --> 00:07:38.390
all you need to create these


00:07:38.400 --> 00:07:40.150
pertabbations so it's a small thing it


00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:41.749
could have even started perhaps as a


00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:44.070
moon of this hot Jupiter and got pulled


00:07:44.080 --> 00:07:45.990
away by the tidal forces from the host


00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:47.510
star over time it's possible we don't


00:07:47.520 --> 00:07:48.950
really know where how where it's formed


00:07:48.960 --> 00:07:50.469
from there are a lot of questions which


00:07:50.479 --> 00:07:52.550
are being raised as a result of this


00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:54.629
such as a sort of dynamical forces that


00:07:54.639 --> 00:07:56.550
could be involved and you looked at two


00:07:56.560 --> 00:07:59.110
hot excitations and another one called


00:07:59.120 --> 00:08:00.950
cold migration yeah that's right so


00:08:00.960 --> 00:08:02.629
there's two main theories for how hot


00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:04.869
Jupiters form we think that in almost


00:08:04.879 --> 00:08:06.869
all cases they would have formed much


00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:08.469
further away from their star like where


00:08:08.479 --> 00:08:10.150
Jupiter is in our solar system there's


00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:12.390
just not enough material close to a star


00:08:12.400 --> 00:08:14.070
early in it life to create a Jupiter so


00:08:14.080 --> 00:08:15.990
it forms further away and it moves in


00:08:16.000 --> 00:08:17.430
and there's two different ways that


00:08:17.440 --> 00:08:19.350
could happen one is that it moves very


00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:21.189
smoothly through the protolanetary disc


00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:22.629
when the system is young and just


00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:24.469
migrates in in a very calm way we call


00:08:24.479 --> 00:08:26.150
this cold migration and the second one


00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:28.869
is warm or hot migration where there's


00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:30.390
some sort of interaction and say two


00:08:30.400 --> 00:08:32.310
giant planets nearly collide with each


00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:34.630
other kicks one into a big orbit that


00:08:34.640 --> 00:08:36.149
eventually spirals inwards towards a


00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:38.709
star and so that's a much more dynamic


00:08:38.719 --> 00:08:40.310
process probably perturbs everything


00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:42.230
else in the disc we would expect if that


00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:45.030
was common then these planets typically


00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:46.790
wouldn't have other planets in the


00:08:46.800 --> 00:08:47.990
system they would all get ejected


00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:50.310
through this exciting process where cold


00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:52.070
migration would preserve planets along


00:08:52.080 --> 00:08:53.670
the way they just kind of smoothly


00:08:53.680 --> 00:08:55.910
migrated with a hot Jupiter and so the


00:08:55.920 --> 00:08:57.750
more hot Jupiters we can find with


00:08:57.760 --> 00:08:59.990
companions or rule out companions with


00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:02.070
that can help us understand how common


00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:04.310
these two different methods are we don't


00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:05.829
think it's strictly one or strictly the


00:09:05.839 --> 00:09:07.509
other we think both happen at different


00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:08.870
amounts of time it's just a matter of


00:09:08.880 --> 00:09:10.150
then trying to figure out how common


00:09:10.160 --> 00:09:12.550
each one is and so this and other


00:09:12.560 --> 00:09:14.150
planets like this will help us really


00:09:14.160 --> 00:09:15.990
understand how common cold migration is


00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:17.509
that doesn't just work for distant


00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:19.430
exoplanets we can employ that same


00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:21.030
technique to try and find out more about


00:09:21.040 --> 00:09:22.870
our own solar system because if you look


00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:25.350
at the nice model we think that's how


00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:28.230
our Jupiter and behind it Saturn acted


00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.990
in the early days of the solar system


00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:31.670
they moved inwards a little bit and then


00:09:31.680 --> 00:09:33.590
migrated back outwards again yeah


00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:35.829
absolutely this isn't a theory that was


00:09:35.839 --> 00:09:37.430
developed recently the theory that goes


00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:39.110
back to our own solar system and a lot


00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:40.389
of what we think we understand about


00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:41.750
planet formation comes from our solar


00:09:41.760 --> 00:09:43.910
system the nice model and then the grand


00:09:43.920 --> 00:09:45.190
tac model which kind of built on the


00:09:45.200 --> 00:09:47.430
niece model both predict that Jupiter


00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:49.350
and Saturn all that the planets would


00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:51.110
have moved around quite a bit in the


00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:52.870
early solar system because of


00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:54.790
interactions with the protolanetary disc


00:09:54.800 --> 00:09:56.150
when the system was young we're talking


00:09:56.160 --> 00:09:58.150
the first 10 20 30 million years of the


00:09:58.160 --> 00:10:00.949
solar systems life and so that is


00:10:00.959 --> 00:10:02.550
certainly something that the exos solar


00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:04.870
systems resemble in many ways and as


00:10:04.880 --> 00:10:07.269
Jupiter moved inwards it did two things


00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:09.430
one it flung a lot of material into the


00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:11.269
outer part of the solar system but at


00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:12.949
the same time it also caused the


00:10:12.959 --> 00:10:15.030
compression of protolanetary material


00:10:15.040 --> 00:10:16.949
that was already in front of it that is


00:10:16.959 --> 00:10:19.670
towards the sun and that helped form


00:10:19.680 --> 00:10:21.829
Mercury Venus Mars and the Earth yeah


00:10:21.839 --> 00:10:23.430
what what we really need for planets to


00:10:23.440 --> 00:10:26.630
form is a change in density if you have


00:10:26.640 --> 00:10:28.389
everything just in a disc and it's all


00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:29.990
uniform you don't really get the


00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.350
interactions that you need for stuff to


00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:32.949
clump together to start forming a planet


00:10:32.959 --> 00:10:34.550
you need stuff to move past each other


00:10:34.560 --> 00:10:35.750
and then thing you know different


00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:37.670
material gets caught either just through


00:10:37.680 --> 00:10:39.670
electrostatic forces or through gravity


00:10:39.680 --> 00:10:40.790
and then you start building little


00:10:40.800 --> 00:10:42.230
clumps that get bigger and bigger in


00:10:42.240 --> 00:10:43.829
time and so anything you can do to speed


00:10:43.839 --> 00:10:45.670
up that process helps this the


00:10:45.680 --> 00:10:47.350
protolanetary disc only lasts a few


00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:48.550
million years so you need to form your


00:10:48.560 --> 00:10:50.389
planets quickly and so if you can have


00:10:50.399 --> 00:10:52.389
giant planets moving around causing


00:10:52.399 --> 00:10:54.710
clumps causing over dense regions


00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.949
causing material to just shift its orbit


00:10:56.959 --> 00:10:58.949
a little bit to bump into new stuff that


00:10:58.959 --> 00:11:00.790
really helps you form planets more


00:11:00.800 --> 00:11:02.710
quickly and more effectively before your


00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:04.949
protolanetary disc dissipates so where


00:11:04.959 --> 00:11:07.910
to now with this research so uh there's


00:11:07.920 --> 00:11:10.230
still a lot of planets to be


00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:12.150
characterized with TESS tess has now


00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:14.949
been observe observing for just over


00:11:14.959 --> 00:11:17.590
five years so the baseline how long we


00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:19.350
have data for is longer than the Kepler


00:11:19.360 --> 00:11:20.710
mission so we can start looking at


00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:22.630
systems and seeing more subtle dynamical


00:11:22.640 --> 00:11:23.829
effects that you couldn't see with


00:11:23.839 --> 00:11:25.190
Kepler because the time scale wasn't


00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:26.790
long enough the machine the the mission


00:11:26.800 --> 00:11:28.550
only went for four years uh we can now


00:11:28.560 --> 00:11:31.030
start seeing in TESS it also is all sky


00:11:31.040 --> 00:11:33.110
so where Kepler was only one field of


00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:35.110
view tess is reobserving across the


00:11:35.120 --> 00:11:37.030
whole sky and so there's a lot of data a


00:11:37.040 --> 00:11:38.870
lot of hot Jupiters that haven't even


00:11:38.880 --> 00:11:40.150
been discovered yet in test because


00:11:40.160 --> 00:11:41.670
there's just so much data to sift


00:11:41.680 --> 00:11:43.269
through that not only will we be able to


00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:45.269
find thousands of these things they're


00:11:45.279 --> 00:11:47.269
big signals giant planets close to their


00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:48.470
stars but we're going to have this


00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:50.150
manyear baseline to start looking at the


00:11:50.160 --> 00:11:51.750
dynamics of these so it's a really


00:11:51.760 --> 00:11:54.310
exciting time to be working on this


00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:56.389
because the data is just so rich and


00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:58.230
every month becomes richer so that's one


00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.750
aspect that we're excited about we're


00:11:59.760 --> 00:12:03.110
also going on into the dynamics of


00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:05.670
planets around binary stars so in the


00:12:05.680 --> 00:12:07.509
same way that we can have perturbations


00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:09.030
when a planet interacts with another


00:12:09.040 --> 00:12:10.949
planet if there's two stars like


00:12:10.959 --> 00:12:13.030
canonically Tatooine from Star Wars if


00:12:13.040 --> 00:12:14.710
you have two stars with a planet going


00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:16.230
around it you'll see interactions


00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:18.470
between those three objects together and


00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:21.110
so we can measure the two eclipses very


00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:23.110
well over lots of different telescopes


00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:24.470
lots of different data sets going back


00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:26.389
decades combining those together to look


00:12:26.399 --> 00:12:27.590
for really subtle signals that are the


00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.430
sign of a planet and so our next big


00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:31.430
project is trying to find circum planets


00:12:31.440 --> 00:12:33.110
around binary stars that's senior


00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:35.430
lecturer Ben Monte from the University


00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.350
of New South Wales and this is spacetime


00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:41.829
still to come a new study claims dark


00:12:41.839 --> 00:12:43.910
energy could be evolving over cosmic


00:12:43.920 --> 00:12:45.910
time and the reclaims the moon's


00:12:45.920 --> 00:12:48.150
magnetic field has lasted far longer


00:12:48.160 --> 00:12:50.389
than expected all that and more still to


00:12:50.399 --> 00:12:59.110
come on Spaceime


00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:07.509
[Music]


00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:09.750
A new study suggests that the mysterious


00:13:09.760 --> 00:13:11.670
force known as dark energy may be


00:13:11.680 --> 00:13:14.150
evolving changing how it will affect the


00:13:14.160 --> 00:13:16.470
ultimate fate of our universe the


00:13:16.480 --> 00:13:18.150
findings come from the dark energy


00:13:18.160 --> 00:13:20.629
spectroscopic instrument DESI a survey


00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:22.069

energy's influence over the past 11


00:13:28.800 --> 00:13:31.350
billion years the new observations


00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:32.870
reported on the pre-press physics


00:13:32.880 --> 00:13:35.110
website archive.org are showing hints


00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:37.350
that dark energy widely thought to be a


00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:39.509
cosmological constant might actually be


00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:41.790
evolving over time and in unexpected


00:13:41.800 --> 00:13:44.790
ways desi is an international experiment


00:13:44.800 --> 00:13:46.949

00:13:46.959 --> 00:13:49.110
70 institutions around the world and


00:13:49.120 --> 00:13:50.550
it's managed by the United States


00:13:50.560 --> 00:13:52.389
Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley


00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:55.350
National Laboratory desi scientist Alexi


00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:57.750
Laund from the University of California


00:13:57.760 --> 00:13:59.670
Santa Cruz says the findings are


00:13:59.680 --> 00:14:02.470
extremely intriguing they suggest that


00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:04.069
science is on the cusp of a major


00:14:04.079 --> 00:14:05.910
discovery about dark energy and the


00:14:05.920 --> 00:14:08.870
fundamental nature of the universe taken


00:14:08.880 --> 00:14:11.350
alone Desi's data are consistent with


00:14:11.360 --> 00:14:13.430
the standard model of the universe the


00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:16.629
so-called lambda cold dark matter theory


00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:17.990
however when paired with other


00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:19.269
measurements there are mounting


00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:21.110
indications that the impact of dark


00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:23.750
energy may be weakening over time and


00:14:23.760 --> 00:14:25.590
that other models may actually be a


00:14:25.600 --> 00:14:27.829
better fit now those other measurements


00:14:27.839 --> 00:14:29.509
include the light left over from the


00:14:29.519 --> 00:14:31.590
dawn of the universe known as the cosmic


00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:34.790
microwave background radiation or CMB


00:14:34.800 --> 00:14:36.990
others include exploding stars known as


00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:39.430
supernova and how light from distant


00:14:39.440 --> 00:14:42.030
galaxies warp by gravity known as weak


00:14:42.040 --> 00:14:44.710
lensing the findings suggest astronomers


00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:46.790
need to modify their standard model of


00:14:46.800 --> 00:14:48.550
cosmology in order to make these


00:14:48.560 --> 00:14:51.269
different data sets make sense together


00:14:51.279 --> 00:14:53.590
so far the preference for evolving dark


00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:55.990
energy hasn't risen to five sigma that's


00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:57.670
the gold standard in physics that


00:14:57.680 --> 00:14:59.150
represents the threshold of a new


00:14:59.160 --> 00:15:01.670
discovery however different combinations


00:15:01.680 --> 00:15:03.350
of the desi data with the cosmic


00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:05.590
microwave background weak lensing and


00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:08.470
supernova data sets range from 2.8 to


00:15:08.480 --> 00:15:11.430
4.2 sigma and anything above a three


00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:14.790
sigma event has a 0.3% chance of being a


00:15:14.800 --> 00:15:17.430
statistical fluke nevertheless many


00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:19.750
three sigma events do fade away as more


00:15:19.760 --> 00:15:22.389
data becomes available desi is one of


00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.710
the most extensive surveys of the cosmos


00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:26.870
ever conducted the state-of-the-art


00:15:26.880 --> 00:15:28.550
instrument which captured light from


00:15:28.560 --> 00:15:31.110
5,000 galaxies simultaneously is now in


00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.389
its fourth of 5 years of surveying the


00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:35.670
skies and there are plans to measure


00:15:35.680 --> 00:15:37.670
approximately 50 million galaxies and


00:15:37.680 --> 00:15:40.870
quazars by the time the project ends the


00:15:40.880 --> 00:15:43.110
new analysis uses data from the first 3


00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:44.870
years of observations and includes


00:15:44.880 --> 00:15:47.030
nearly 15 million of the best measured


00:15:47.040 --> 00:15:50.069
galaxies and quazars it's a major leap


00:15:50.079 --> 00:15:51.829
forward improving the experiment's


00:15:51.839 --> 00:15:53.829
precision with a data set that more than


00:15:53.839 --> 00:15:55.749
doubles what was used in Desi's first


00:15:55.759 --> 00:15:57.910
analysis which also hinted at an


00:15:57.920 --> 00:16:00.790
evolving dark energy and it's not just


00:16:00.800 --> 00:16:02.389
that the data continues to show a


00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:04.790
preference for evolving dark energy but


00:16:04.800 --> 00:16:06.629
that the evidence is becoming stronger


00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:09.350
and stronger now than what it was before


00:16:09.360 --> 00:16:11.829
desi tracks dark energy's influence by


00:16:11.839 --> 00:16:14.030
studying how matter is spread across the


00:16:14.040 --> 00:16:16.790
universe see events in the very early


00:16:16.800 --> 00:16:19.189
universe left subtle patterns in how the


00:16:19.199 --> 00:16:21.670
matter is distributed through space it's


00:16:21.680 --> 00:16:23.910
a feature which scientists refer to as


00:16:23.920 --> 00:16:25.629
barionic acoustic


00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:28.150
oscillations that pattern is providing a


00:16:28.160 --> 00:16:30.629
cosmic scale standard ruler with its


00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:32.470
size at different times directly


00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.189
affecting how the universe is expanding


00:16:35.199 --> 00:16:36.790
by measuring the ruler at different


00:16:36.800 --> 00:16:38.550
distances it shows scientists the


00:16:38.560 --> 00:16:41.030
strength of dark energy through history


00:16:41.040 --> 00:16:42.629
as the data is getting more and more


00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:44.389
precise astronomers are finding


00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:46.069
potential cracks in the model and


00:16:46.079 --> 00:16:47.910
they're realizing they may need


00:16:47.920 --> 00:16:50.230
something new in order to explain all


00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:52.470
the results when they're put together


00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:54.710
it's a fascinating puzzle and needless


00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:56.790
to say we'll keep you informed with what


00:16:56.800 --> 00:17:00.949
they find this is spaceime still to come


00:17:00.959 --> 00:17:03.030

00:17:03.040 --> 00:17:04.789
longer than expected and later in the


00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:06.870
science report a new study warns that


00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:08.949
sugary beverages may be increasing a

00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:29.029
and more still to come on Spaceime


00:17:29.039 --> 00:17:31.270

Changi 6 sample return mission to the


00:17:33.360 --> 00:17:35.190
far side of the moon has shown evidence


00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:36.789
of what appears to have been a


00:17:36.799 --> 00:17:38.549
significant resurgence of the moon's


00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:41.350
magnetic field about 2.8 billion years


00:17:41.360 --> 00:17:43.669
ago the findings are offering new


00:17:43.679 --> 00:17:45.590
insights into the dynamic history of the


00:17:45.600 --> 00:17:47.830
lunar magnetic field and consequently


00:17:47.840 --> 00:17:50.150
its impact on the moon's interior and

00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:54.710
mission was launched back on May the 3rd


00:17:54.720 --> 00:17:56.789
last year from the Wing Chang satellite


00:17:56.799 --> 00:17:59.909
launch center on Hinan Island its lander


00:17:59.919 --> 00:18:02.150
and rover touched down on the lunar far


00:18:02.160 --> 00:18:04.710
side on June the 1st the lander's


00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:06.710
robotic scoop and drill then took


00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:08.789
samples of the lunar regular total mass


00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:10.190
of


00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:13.510
1,935.3 g these were placed into an


00:18:13.520 --> 00:18:15.110
ascent module which was then launched


00:18:15.120 --> 00:18:17.190
back into lunar orbit where it rendevous


00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:18.470
with the orbiter module and was


00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:20.230
transferred to an atmospheric re-entry


00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:22.549
module for the return to earth the


00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:24.710
samples have provided the first basaltic

rocks and regular from the moon's far


00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:29.110
side in the process filling a crucial


00:18:29.120 --> 00:18:30.870
gap in science's understanding of the


00:18:30.880 --> 00:18:33.430
lunar magnetic field's history see


00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:35.430
previous studies based on samples from


00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:37.350
the lunar knee side were able to put


00:18:37.360 --> 00:18:39.110
together a general timeline of the


00:18:39.120 --> 00:18:41.830
moon's magnetic field but they left out


00:18:41.840 --> 00:18:44.470
key uncertainties about its evolution


00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:46.070
the new research has undertaken


00:18:46.080 --> 00:18:48.310
paleomagnetic analysis of the samples


00:18:48.320 --> 00:18:49.990
measuring the ancient magnetic field


00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:52.669
strength ranging from 5 to 21


00:18:52.679 --> 00:18:54.710
microteslas the findings show a


00:18:54.720 --> 00:18:56.789
resurgence in magnetic field intensity


00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.070
at 2.8 billion years that follows a


00:19:00.080 --> 00:19:02.950
decline around 3.1 billion years ago the


00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:04.549
findings challenge the previous


00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:06.630
hypothesis that the lunar dynamo


00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:08.549
weakened after 3 billion years and the


00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:10.470
lunar core solidified and has remained


00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:12.789
inactive ever since the authors believe


00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:14.549
the magnetic revival could have been


00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:16.870
driven by a basaltic magma ocean or


00:19:16.880 --> 00:19:18.870
possibly processional forces with


00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:20.630
potential contributions from core


00:19:20.640 --> 00:19:22.150
crystallization


00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:24.150
now it all suggests that the moon's


00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:25.830
interior has remained geologically


00:19:25.840 --> 00:19:27.830
active for far longer than originally


00:19:27.840 --> 00:19:29.590
thought and that suggests significant


00:19:29.600 --> 00:19:31.590
fluctuations in the lunar magnetic field


00:19:31.600 --> 00:19:34.789
between 3.5 and 2.8 billion years ago


00:19:34.799 --> 00:19:37.190
all as a result of a highly unstable


00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:39.990
dynamo during this period it's a


00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:42.310
fascinating discovery and changes our


00:19:42.320 --> 00:19:45.430
understanding of the moon's history this


00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:46.740
is spaceime


00:19:46.750 --> 00:20:02.470
[Music]


00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:04.230
and time now to take another brief look


00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:05.669
at some of the other stories making news


00:20:05.679 --> 00:20:07.549
in science this week with the science


00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:09.830
report a new study has found that


00:20:09.840 --> 00:20:11.750
consuming lots of sugary beverages may


00:20:11.760 --> 00:20:13.830
increase a woman's risk of mouth cancer


00:20:13.840 --> 00:20:16.549
regardless of whether or not they smoke


00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:18.390
the findings reported in the Journal of


00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:20.470
the American Medical Association looked


00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:22.350
at data on


00:20:22.360 --> 00:20:25.830
162,62 women 124 of whom developed mouth


00:20:25.840 --> 00:20:27.870
cancer over 30 years of follow-up


00:20:27.880 --> 00:20:30.789
studies overall women who drank one or


00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:33.830
more sugary beverages per day were 4.87


00:20:33.840 --> 00:20:35.590
times more likely to develop mouth


00:20:35.600 --> 00:20:37.669
cancer than those who consumed less than


00:20:37.679 --> 00:20:40.149
one sugary drink a month now that's


00:20:40.159 --> 00:20:41.990
equivalent to an extra three cases of


00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:44.789
mouth cancer for every 100,000 people


00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:46.710
when heavy smokers were excluded the


00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:48.470
increased risk from sugary drinks was


00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:50.549
even higher with women who drank one or


00:20:50.559 --> 00:20:53.350
more drinks per day at 5.46 times the


00:20:53.360 --> 00:20:55.029
risk of mouth cancer compared to women


00:20:55.039 --> 00:20:57.430
who drank less than one drink per month


00:20:57.440 --> 00:20:59.430
the authors say the findings may reveal


00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:01.430
a previously unknown cause of mouth


00:21:01.440 --> 00:21:03.669
cancer in women and so further studies


00:21:03.679 --> 00:21:05.510
should look to see if the same thing is


00:21:05.520 --> 00:21:07.990
true among men


00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:10.390
a new study claims agricultural drought


00:21:10.400 --> 00:21:12.549
is likely to become harder to predict as


00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:14.950
the world continues to heat up the


00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:16.789
findings reported in the journal Nature


00:21:16.799 --> 00:21:18.710
Climate Change is based on statistics


00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:20.950
and computer simulations showing that


00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:23.110
predictability of droughts may decrease


00:21:23.120 --> 00:21:25.750
by more than 70% if the world warms to


00:21:25.760 --> 00:21:29.350
either 2° or 3° C above pre-industrial


00:21:29.360 --> 00:21:32.230
levels it shows Australia is one of the


00:21:32.240 --> 00:21:34.470
most affected regions in the world along


00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:37.029
with North America Amazonia Europe and


00:21:37.039 --> 00:21:39.350
both Eastern and Southern Asia the


00:21:39.360 --> 00:21:40.789
authors say this decrease in


00:21:40.799 --> 00:21:43.029
predictability is due to changes in the


00:21:43.039 --> 00:21:44.950
soil as well as the interactions between


00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:46.950
the land and the air and increasingly


00:21:46.960 --> 00:21:49.070
dry conditions more


00:21:49.080 --> 00:21:51.669
generally a new study warns that less


00:21:51.679 --> 00:21:54.149
than half the claims made about ADHD


00:21:54.159 --> 00:21:56.549
symptoms in popular Tik Tok videos align


00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:58.390
with current scientific and clinical


00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:00.789
standards the findings are reported in


00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:02.549
the journal plus one assessed the


00:22:02.559 --> 00:22:04.070

popular Tik Tok videos with a hashtag


00:22:06.520 --> 00:22:09.110
ADHD they found that less than half of


00:22:09.120 --> 00:22:11.590
the videos claims about ADHD were


00:22:11.600 --> 00:22:14.549
accurate they then asked 843


00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:16.310
undergraduate students about their Tik


00:22:16.320 --> 00:22:18.789
Tok ADHD viewing habits and what videos


00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:21.190
they would recommend students either


00:22:21.200 --> 00:22:23.590
formally or self-dagnosed with ADHD


00:22:23.600 --> 00:22:26.470
reported watching #ADHD Tik Toks more


00:22:26.480 --> 00:22:28.350
frequently than students who didn't have


00:22:28.360 --> 00:22:30.950
ADHD and those who watched those videos


00:22:30.960 --> 00:22:32.549
were more likely to say they would


00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:33.990
recommend them regardless of how


00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:36.149
accurate they really were while the


00:22:36.159 --> 00:22:37.909
authors acknowledge social media can


00:22:37.919 --> 00:22:39.830
provide useful information and a sense


00:22:39.840 --> 00:22:42.230
of community for those with ADHD they


00:22:42.240 --> 00:22:44.630
often don't match expert opinion and


00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:47.270
could lead to people overestimating ADHD


00:22:47.280 --> 00:22:49.110
prevalence and think more negatively


00:22:49.120 --> 00:22:50.909
about their own


00:22:50.919 --> 00:22:53.510
symptoms lg and Samsung have just


00:22:53.520 --> 00:22:56.310
released their latest high-tech TVs with


00:22:56.320 --> 00:22:57.909
the details we're joined by technology


00:22:57.919 --> 00:23:01.110
editor Alex Harro from techadvice.life


00:23:01.120 --> 00:23:04.070
i just saw LG's 2025 range that go from


00:23:04.080 --> 00:23:05.909
smaller TVs that also work beautifully


00:23:05.919 --> 00:23:08.070
as monitors you know 32 in all the way


00:23:08.080 --> 00:23:10.630
through to 100in TVs i mean there was an


00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:13.590
80in transparent LED all that stuff


00:23:13.600 --> 00:23:15.029
we've seen in science fiction but one of


00:23:15.039 --> 00:23:17.110
the TVs that LG has been working on for


00:23:17.120 --> 00:23:18.950
some years as well as their market


00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:21.990
leading OLED where each pixel is its own


00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:23.750
light source and you can have ultimate


00:23:23.760 --> 00:23:25.270
blacks because everything is switched


00:23:25.280 --> 00:23:27.270
off there's no light shining through a


00:23:27.280 --> 00:23:29.750
liquid crystal display that then has to


00:23:29.760 --> 00:23:31.510
show black and then also have light


00:23:31.520 --> 00:23:33.909
going through it qet is quantum dot and


00:23:33.919 --> 00:23:36.070
nano cell technologies and these use


00:23:36.080 --> 00:23:39.190
mini LED backlighting to create a um


00:23:39.200 --> 00:23:41.350
vibrant picture now there are different


00:23:41.360 --> 00:23:44.149
levels of this QNET technology lg uses a


00:23:44.159 --> 00:23:46.870
branding called EVO to denote the higher


00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:48.710
quality versions of its technologies and


00:23:48.720 --> 00:23:52.070
when I saw a QLED and then an QLED Evo


00:23:52.080 --> 00:23:53.590
side by side well you can see that the


00:23:53.600 --> 00:23:56.950
EVO version had even more rich colors it


00:23:56.960 --> 00:23:58.390
was able to display even more colors


00:23:58.400 --> 00:24:00.549
than the cheaper version but this is all


00:24:00.559 --> 00:24:03.430
in the aim of giving consumers a modern


00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:05.510
television with all the streaming and


00:24:05.520 --> 00:24:07.830
all the apps that you expect now one of


00:24:07.840 --> 00:24:09.909
the things that LG is doing is they're


00:24:09.919 --> 00:24:12.950
offering 5 years of updates for the


00:24:12.960 --> 00:24:15.430
television operating system this is


00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:16.789
important because just like when you buy


00:24:16.799 --> 00:24:18.789
a phone it has all sorts of security and


00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:20.630
feature updates and you know you get the


00:24:20.640 --> 00:24:22.149
next version of iOS or the next version


00:24:22.159 --> 00:24:24.310
of Android and you've got new features


00:24:24.320 --> 00:24:25.990
and also as we were saying before


00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:28.070
importantly security updates so this is


00:24:28.080 --> 00:24:29.669
important for TVs because if your TV's


00:24:29.679 --> 00:24:31.269
stuck you had it for 5 years and you


00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:32.630
can't update it anymore maybe


00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:34.070
vulnerabilities i mean there's a reason


00:24:34.080 --> 00:24:35.510
why they don't have the little cameras


00:24:35.520 --> 00:24:37.269
on televisions anymore now they have


00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:38.789
microphones now again because you can


00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:40.390
now talk to your TVs and get it to


00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:41.990
change channels or change brightness or


00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:44.549
improve the vocal track so the voices


00:24:44.559 --> 00:24:46.149
are louder but if your TV is several


00:24:46.159 --> 00:24:48.230
years old can have vulnerabilities now


00:24:48.240 --> 00:24:51.029
Samsung has also come out with its new


00:24:51.039 --> 00:24:53.830
range of OLED TVs and Samsung is the


00:24:53.840 --> 00:24:55.669
other company that's making OLEDs and


00:24:55.679 --> 00:24:58.149
these TVs come with 7 years of security


00:24:58.159 --> 00:25:00.549
and OS updates it's really sad but isn't


00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:02.390
it in the olden days in the days of


00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:05.110
cathode ray tubes you'd buy a TV it last


00:25:05.120 --> 00:25:07.830
you 20 years or so and uh you'd only


00:25:07.840 --> 00:25:10.470
upgrade when color TV came out or when


00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:12.630
we moved to flat screens well in a way


00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:14.390
it's the same because flat screens from


00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:16.149
10 years ago a lot of them wouldn't


00:25:16.159 --> 00:25:17.590
necessarily have had internet


00:25:17.600 --> 00:25:18.789
connections or you would have had to


00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:21.269
have plugged in an Ethernet cable or


00:25:21.279 --> 00:25:23.110
Wi-Fi and that can be turned off so the


00:25:23.120 --> 00:25:25.190
TV the flat screen TV is still a flat


00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:27.269
screen TV it'll still pick up free toear


00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:29.269
channels it might have some measure of


00:25:29.279 --> 00:25:30.950
internet connectivity but if that is


00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:33.190
turned off the TV cannot be hacked into


00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:35.590
so it still can do what it can do but it


00:25:35.600 --> 00:25:37.430
just misses out on the newer features it


00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:39.350
does and the benefit of being able to


00:25:39.360 --> 00:25:41.830
plug an Amazon Fire Stick or a Google


00:25:41.840 --> 00:25:44.070
Stream Box or an Apple TV is that that


00:25:44.080 --> 00:25:46.310
is then on HDMI 1 or whichever HDMI


00:25:46.320 --> 00:25:47.350
you've got and this could also be like


00:25:47.360 --> 00:25:50.070
for a Fox box as well and you are using


00:25:50.080 --> 00:25:52.390
that as the TV operating system because


00:25:52.400 --> 00:25:54.789
it's plugged into an HDMI source so


00:25:54.799 --> 00:25:56.149
you're sort of bypassing any of the


00:25:56.159 --> 00:25:58.070
smarts in the TV at all and you're


00:25:58.080 --> 00:25:59.590
offloading it all to whatever's plugged


00:25:59.600 --> 00:26:01.830
into the HDMI port and that device is


00:26:01.840 --> 00:26:03.350
connected to the internet and that


00:26:03.360 --> 00:26:04.870
device is getting updates that's Alex
