greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best speech talk show in the known universe I'm Ashley sceva Jeff kanata is out of town and we'll be back tomorrow so for now let's hit the headlines you may have seen fly boards interesting water powered device but now fly board is taking to the skies the PATA dropped a video this weekend showing off a test of fly board air a board that appears to be turbine powered the end of the video claims the flight time was 3 minutes and 55 seconds and the board reached speeds of up to 55 kilometers an hour but sapota says this fly board can actually fly for up to 10 minutes and hit speeds shy of a hundred and 50 kilometers an hour it can also reach an altitude of 10,000 feet max we'll see how this pans out as they continue testing and they also say they have a mission 1 coming soon but it looks really really cool and I really really want to write it more transportation news as the volocopter took its first manned flight the volocopter has been in development for six years and it finally took its maiden flight last week with a human pilot on board previous flights have been unmanned for safety reasons but this first manned voyage goes relatively smoothly in the video so those unmanned tests seem to have paid off right now volocopter can't fly too far since it's an electric vehicle but the company is working hard on increased flight duration which of course would be the one thing that you would want if you're flying a single-person drone basically electric drone I think that we should talk about fly board on Thursday's show because obviously everybody wants true hoverboards this is turbine powered it's pretty cool we can talk about jetpacks as well because there's some other turbine jetpack things that are happening in the space if you guys want to get in on the conversation use hashtag hey TD and talk to us about it on Twitter and if we like the tweets we'll use them in Thursday's show isn't that being said let's check out our phone tog refer the day our phone tog refers a date today is Jason who took this picture of a landmark which is our April theme with his Galaxy s7 edge Jason writes to us and says hey Geoff Ashley Logan bonny Chris Viva and all the good humans I see Jason has been reading our credits at the end of the show it's Jason from North Alabama and here's a picture of the space & Rocket Center in Huntsville Alabama can you say Space Camp I was driving home from work and thought this was a perfect landmark for this month's theme so I whipped out my Samsung Galaxy s7 edge DoubleTap that home button and within a second I took this amazing picture I'm truly impressed with their dual pixel technology what do you all think well Jason I think is a really good picture and honestly it makes me want to run out of this studio right now and go straight to Space Camp straight to Space Camp also you were you were selling us real hard on that s7 edge I'm just gonna tell you were really impressed the old pixels you got a double tap the home button for a picture really great stuff you guys want to submit your font ography the challenge this month is landmarks points of interest and monuments we would love to see your photos please email us tomorrow at cnet.com and do what Jason did give us permission to use the photo tell us a story about it and tell us what device you use to take the picture you can also find us all over social media and if you want to share the show you can send them to tomorrow daily.com well that's it for me tomorrow Jeff will be back in his normal seats but until then be good humans see you guys next time
