greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily if the best ski talk show in the known universe I'm Ashley together i'm jeff kannada hold onto your socks it's time for headlines some of earth's biggest minds want to send a spacecraft at a fraction of the speed of light to their nearest star system they're calling it star shot famous cosmologist Stephen Hawking an investor Yuri Milner unveiled a plan to send tiny nano craft into outer space those nano crafts would use light sails and a ground-based light Beamer to propel themselves up to a hundred million miles an hour or 20% of the speed of light that would make the four year light trip to Alpha Centauri take about 20 years which is a much quicker trip than traditional spacecraft which would take about thirty thousand years Hawking stressed the need to look to the stars because earth quote might not last forever unquote that's pretty cool but how long will it take to get information from those spacecraft back to us about thirty thousand years that's too long that's too long for the info what idea well have to do some research on that hey street art may be changing forever with an introduction of a smart spray can this motion sensing spray can was developed by a team at Dartmouth University this invention allows for large-scale replication of images without any skill on the part of the artist two webcams and a cube with QR markers keep track of the cans motion and position relative to the wall and an algorithm controls how much paint is released and where as the painter moves the can along the wall the team responsible for the cans has it's kind of a modern spray paint by numbers it's spray paint by numbers you don't need any artistic skill to be able to make a giant street art mural that's amazing I guess that's really cool I guess that's cool I feel like I like the idea of wanting to be a really good artist and maybe this but really are you the good artist or is it the spray paint can I don't know I mean if it's is it now is it just a fax machine or like a copy machine kind of yeah just a live cop you are the machine you're the copy machine stuff do you think we should talk about um I'm kind of intrigued by both of them these are pretty good stories today I think it's gotta be star shot I feel like we got to talk about getting into the next star system over at 20 percent speed light that's pretty amazing it's pretty mean to think that we could actually explore that far into our into our galaxy is pretty wild I mean let's talk about it on Thursday yes you can be a part of that conversation by using our hashtag hey yeah and if we like your tweets we'll put them in Thursday's show but you got to tweak fast because we're we have some scheduling stuff so right now uh that being said let's check out our photo of the day tonight's photographer of the day is awesome arc who took this picture with his iPhone 6s plus yeah awesome art writes and says hello Ashley and Jeff my name is Omar and you have my permission to use this picture of my wife and I we are at the cloud gate sculpture in Chicago aka the Chicago Beam a friend of ours took this photo on my iPhone 6s plus and boy were we surprised at how well it came out especially since the weather kept switching from snowing to sunny I hope you show it for your April monuments and points of interest themed love the show watch it all the time your fan from Purdue University awesome our Lopez and then he says my firt he tells us how to pronounce his first name but I thought this was cool his name is a combination of his mom and dad's names Oscar and Martha and also because his name's Martha his mom's name is Martha he also has something in common with Batman and Superman yeah pretty great hey I have a my own version of that exact picture I've stood in that exact spot and taken that exact picture along with thousands of others I love that so much yeah if you guys want to send in your landmarks monuments and points of interest pictures this month email them to tomorrow at cnn.com yeah make sure you tell us which device you use to take the picture give us a pronunciation of your name I really very much appreciate that you give us permission to use it on the show and we always love a little story about why you took that picture we're also everywhere on social media and if you want to share the show with a friend to give the gift of tomorrow daily you can send them to tomorrow daily calm it'll send you right to our show page on SEANET that is it for us today we will be back tomorrow with Clayton Schneider Oh fun fun funny review with Clayton fungi actor all-around cool guy a friend of producer Logan um we're gonna do that tomorrow we also have a lot of interesting conversations that we're gonna have so until then be good humans hi guys you
