Tomorrow Daily - 088: Ultrafast maglev trains, unlimited 'Interstellar' tickets, and more

2014-11-18
on today's show a Japanese maglev train that goes 300 miles per hour starts public testing AMC and paramount unveil on an unlimited pass for interstellar and I've got details on it oh and an artist creating 3d printed sculptures so small you need an electron microscope to see them stir our daily greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk-show in the known universe I'm host Ashley Skeletor meet as always hey sky punch or kill anonymous sky punch professional sky puncher that's what they called me in high school I didn't like it so let's talk about names yeah we got some really good headlines today guys so let's let's get to it you know if there was one technology that I would want for this country it would be maglev trains like I love my speed yeah I love high-speed rail so this is like very exciting to me that in Japan they just started testing this maglev train that goes 500 kilometers an hour that's it it doesn't beautiful it was amazing so here are some of the people who got to ride it first there were invited on't really look like they care on us oh no no watch you're gonna see them get very excited these are very look at they're like whoa because they're moving now they're going really really fast so these are a hundred people who got to ride this maglev there it goes it's going up - it can get it can reach speeds of up to 311 miles per hour which is oh my god look at it go freak all right where is it going - okay so it is going the the testing for this maglev is gonna run it when it's done it's gonna run between Tokyo and Nagoya so there you go five hundred five hundred and one kilometer oh wow it's going through the limit miles per hour right there which is very very quick and obviously this is a really cool little upgrade for maglev trains I mean they already have high-speed rail in Japan yeah but this is like another even like if they just keep getting faster and faster of course I always have that fear of like what's gonna happen when one of these trees like flies off of the magnets and crashes but but it's actually safer as far as I am aware uh-huh as far as I've read its it's safer than having wheels on Rails like it there are more things that could go wrong mechanically then as opposed to okay so your fears are irrational although not super rational I mean of course there's always the chance that something will happen I mean I think that the odds are less than writing in a regular train so this is real this is a brand-new one and it's open to the public now I don't know that it's open right now they just started doing their testing but the testing only lasts for eight days so they're doing eight days of testing and then and then it'll be open so it might be open right now or it's going to be open very very soon how much is it ticket cost oh that's a really good question I don't have an answer to because we haven't been in Japan but hey listen hey Japan Japan call us we're totally ready to ride the maglev is Japan's number still the same I think it is okay I think it is well give them a little tinkle a while since I've called Japan yeah all right it's the same number okay cool just one I do want to ride that I do any of you that are watching this have written a maglev I haven't please tell us how your it feels is it feeling different than riding away but it's really smooth because you're on magnets you're not you know bumping on our railroad yeah it's kind of cool yeah so the problem is like it's very expensive obviously compared to traditional trains so I don't know that we'll be seeing these like cropping up all over the world in in a couple years but I mean over time maybe who knows we'll have maglev trains will be the new sort of standard yeah hoverboards no why not yeah we're gonna hoverboard next year so uh some yeah that's pretty good um speaking of unlimited movie passes AMC I did just say that I did just mention all right so there there's been a recent development in the film and the theater industry called movie pass in which you pay a certain price and you can go see a movie yes as many times as you want well AMC and Paramount have worked together to focus on one specific movie and that is interstellar now what I'm saying here is that you pay one price and you can see interstellar in theaters as much as you want but I think it's not an IMAX its regular why would you want to oh wait you would want to see what is the idea I saw it in IMAX yeah yeah which is the way you're supposed to see it apparently guys see it in IMAX if you haven't seen her so I'm not explaining but if you haven't seen it apparently it's worth multiple views you know as with most Christopher Nolan's films yeah you always want to go back and see a big movie with some maker really big ideas in it and a lot of people even when I the theater there were some people behind us for like I need I feel like I need to watch that again like I need to I could watch it again and think about it and then come back other people's conversations well they were just really excited so here's the details of how this is going to run by the way I love the b-roll through this is what I looked up I looked up people watching movies and this was what I came up with a fantastic b-roll I'm sorry if you're listening you're missing some great great old timey cinema so it's gonna be available in a330 AMC Theatres so not all of them and the prices are gonna vary from $20 to $35 so move to a place where there are not very many features let's go people you also have to be an AMC Stubbs member so add the cost of $12 fun to that and then if you've already seen it and your Stubbs member you'll have to pay $15.99 to upgrade but you get to see it as many times as you want not in IMAX that also it comes to the commemorative Pez that gives me an idea for a hashtag of the day I think it's gonna be a really good one you didn't think about that before the show no I just thought it up right now I magically came up with this hashtag TD movie life and we want to know what movie would you buy a lifetime pass to see over and over again in theaters meaning that if you had if you went to a theater they would have to load it up no matter when you say listen I want to watch this movie and they would have to put it they would have to load it up in the projector regardless of whether it was playing or not in theaters okay right they'd have to load it up for you all right you go first this time I feel like the movie that I would watch over and over and over again oh there's so many oh so many that I watch over and over again but I feel like I would watch oh my god I have like a little handful of movies that I would watch over and over again I'll let you pick two you helped me pick two what'd you pick two but he has to come quick because people are sitting here listen are sitting here being bored okay I'm being really I'm being extremely fast with this I would watch die hard over and over again okay good choice there's die hard over and over again is a good action movie and then I would watch what's another what's another great film I momento over and over and over oh man yeah pretty good you could get them a plant in Reverse - yeah baby that would be my second play backwards mine will be Jurassic Park of course yeah that'd be great and just a movie of Pizza coming out of an oven and I want to say this is gonna sound weird but the room oh that's a good tummy was those the listen that's a great camp that's a that's a cult following thing because that one I feel like I could take other people to go and see it in theaters yeah I have to wait because they have made what is that if you haven't seen the room and you enjoy bad movies if you understand that sort of logic it's a terrible you shouldn't you should watch that one yeah but yeah that would be cool to be able to just go to the theater yeah see the room and it's like I probably like put in the room yeah they're like oh all right so tell us which movie movie or - movies I'm gonna break water - Marshall sometimes is hard so which two movies you'd you would pay to go see lifetime pass oh my god that'd be amazing so there you go interstellar I think I'd switch out diehard for The Avengers because it's a really good action movie or like yeah I'm it's a way I like if I wanted a good action movie I might change that all right I know it might change okay so uh I always like nano art I was like looking at like these crazy sort of nano sculpture type things that people scientists come up with and there's a sculptor out there who caught my eye his name is John T Hurwitz jaunty jaunty hmm he created a series of sculptures that can only be seen with an electron microscope and there are some really insane images so here's here's one of them so that's it look you see this arrow its theis on the head oven yeah it's on I of a needle it's so tiny these sculptures could fit on the forehead of an ant that's how small they are that's how small they are the detail is so impressive because they've been created from 3d scans of people and statues so there's a one of that's a person that was scanned and then the other one with two people is actually a sculpture in real life a very large life-size sculpture that was scanned and they range in size from less than half the width of a human hair to about the width of a human hair that's that's there yes this is very and not-safe-for-work well no it sit for the exams yes for the art female bodies female sorry yeah everybody's got one but it's really amazing it's printed with photosensitive material they take all these pages and there's so many cameras that they're able to capture really detailed images of these people but blur his face out well he may be he is he was he didn't wanna be on camera okay so okay so then and then what they do is they use this technique called multiphoton lithography and that creates fine details in the sculptures and then they make them in their kitty bitty tiny and you said 3d printers well they so they print yeah they 3d print out on this photosensitive material like it's it's 3d printed on this material and then they use that that technique see this is the one with the sculpture with like this so they are able to do that and like get all these crazy details very very small obviously I mean it's so soda and then they go and they like put it on a hair so you have okay so where are they now well so this guy is he's got a whole series of these you can go over to his website you can check them out I feel like takes pictures of them I I would imagine they're probably pretty easy to lose cuz you know I lose my car keys and they're like way bigger than half the width of a human hair right and you could sneeze so he probably yeah I was gonna say like a little gust of wind like if the guy farts like they're just it's over oh yeah they're just they're gone sorry sorry everybody can have to look for him it's like Honey I Shrunk the Kids look inside your Cheerios even then does a huge compared to these like sculptures that's that's pretty cool so you said you like you like Nano or is there a lot more of that well there's a lot of stuff like this where you see people who will like carve the tip of a pencil into something or you'll see it like I really like yeah yeah like I really like this sort of idea that people are working it like it's so detailed and it's so there's so much skill that would go into this and obviously so much education and learning like I just really like that concept yeah that's totally cool I'd love to see it yeah but I can but you can't not with your own eyes we'll have to buy an electron microscope can we tax write that off yeah but let's say hey Japan call us let's take a break and find out if we can write off an electron microscope let's take 30 seconds we'll be right back we have some awesome stuff for you of new releases it's Tuesday oh it's such a good team oh my god it's one of the best Tuesday's of the year and we have your user feedback and of course our phone talker for the day so don't click

been hearing nothing but great things I wasn't a fan of the second one but you played the first one I did and I loved the origins is fantastic second one they kind of phoned it in a little bit but I'm hearing this one they totally not the case this is a really expansive beautiful game lots of options lots of great story lots of great everything so that's what I've heard I can't I can't speak from first-person experience but that's what I'm hearing I'm very curious to see how many people because there's a lot of games out right now yeah I am a little worried about Dragon Age I don't know when do you play it how do you choose I don't know halo you tell us okay so okay okay so and then in theaters if you're looking for a little a little respite from your gaming if you want to get outside and then go back inside you want to go see Hunger Games Mockingjay part 1 on Friday that's coming out you got Jennifer Lawrence yeah Jayla super super hero Jennifer Lawrence you have Julianne Moore you've
