Has hit turbulence launching starling satellites as the private sector has set its sights on Space Exploration with a packed show today so lets dive right in. And President Trump has made his decision rejecting by dancers compromise of selling a portion of their widely popular social media app to talk to u. S. Company oracle now the president has now announced that tick tock will be banned in the United States on app Stores Beginning sunday the Commerce Department said friday that as of sunday any moves to distribute or maintain we chat or tick tack on an app store will be prohibited this means that while users who are already have downloaded the apps may be able to continue using the software the Restrictions Mean updated versions of the apps can not be downloaded joining us now to discuss our boom bust cohost bents want to christiane theyve become the story with us all week long so thank you so much for that theres another twist on a friday ben i want to start with you because even though we have heard a lot of talk about banning tech talk by the administration all that is really being banned are that at this point are really updates correct. Yeah so this is kind of a ridiculous move here by the Commerce Department what theyre saying is look you will not be able to get an update on tick tock but if you already have it on your Android Device or you have it on your apple device you can still use it so it doesnt change anything now that the restrictions are we chatter a little more strict beginning on sunday its going to be illegal to host or transfer internet traffic associated with we chat so its more strict here now get this the german ministration says that beginning on november 12th november 12th of this year the same rules would apply to what does that mean that simply means this the german ministration doesnt have to do an outright ban on tick tock before the election which i think is awfully convenient at this point so you dont look bad before the election but at the same time it also its almost like youre baiting to talk to say were still going to consider your agreement to work with oracle and give a board seat to walmart equity stake to walmart youre essentially given the chance to maybe sweeten that deal before we all out ban you so without calling it an extension thats essentially what they got was an extension if its interesting because obviously when it comes to updates eventually those kind of run out and become make the apple unusable of venture now kristie it appears that one way by dance is actually trying to get around the Trump Administration rules is to offer a u. S. I. P. O. But would that really appears the new chinese rules. Yeah its hard to say because right now its not clear whether by dance can even present this deal to china as keeping majority ownership of the chinese official has said that they do not learn by chance to agree to a forced sale and a Company Proposal to the white house this week called for to retain majority ownership talk by dan said on thursday it would be chinas approval to the proposed deal so it may not even fly with china if it doesnt retain majority ownership but at the crux of it its all about the algal at this point so weve had reports even late last night from beijing that they would be come forward to talk. Content recommendation algorithm is in check. For to us so as ben has said this i. P. O. Is just icing on the cake to try to seal the deal and make it more better for the u. S. So take tugh global would be the i. P. O. In about a year or so and this would be one of the biggest tech market given that this app with when something valued at more than 50000000000. 00 so this would d be a huge win for the u. S. To have the action wristed in the new york market and by dance also offer to create 25000. 00 new u. S. Jobs with the tick tock in the u. S. Which is another bonus incentive so it would also further reduce by the stake in the company to u. S. Officials who want to see the chinese firm loosen its grip on the app but in all of this its done to try to appease the u. S. But it will be a very difficult sell to convince to china but so far as they are concerned as long as it retains control of the algal thats again a line in sand and its interesting on the i. P. O. Because you know how much President Trump likes to tout the stock market and that would certainly send things up at least for a couple of days now ben the administration theyre not stopping with tech talk Gaming Companies connected the Chinese Technology firm holdings are the latest targets caught in the crosshairs by the administrations crackdown on beijing and were talking about epic games and riaa epic has a portion owned by 10 cent but right is mostly outright own by 10 so what do we know about this yeah its kind of an interesting story so bloomberg broke this but essentially theyre saying that the Treasury Department is looking at citi letters to epic games which you said of course theyre the ones who create a fortnight which by the way you cant even access on an i phone right now because of a separate dispute that theyre having with apple and then you also have right games essentially what theyre doing is saying to them that they want to see the security protocols that are in place in terms of how the data is handled for americans who use it thats how they started out with tech talk the same thing so essentially is a Drug Administration actually going to make a move to say were going to ban certain Gaming Companies as well unless whats the unless unless you bring in an American Company unless you hand over a portion of your of your company and your control. The company to an American Company listen a lot of this really is going to come down to the election in just a few weeks and determine whether or not we move forward in this way if the drum administrator could keep going this route that it looks like they would kind of have these. Maybe is the wrong term but almost a hostile takeover of multiple very Successful Companies just because they have a connection to china what it would be very strange especially in the right game situation because what youre supposedly saying is a company that already sold from the u. S. Base to china china now you say you have to sell it back after im sure there was a lot of Regulatory Approval that happened there kristie i want to talk about this election here just a little bit because what do we expect to see happen over the next 4 years with this battle with china if the president is reelected certainly has position himself as tough on china while he says joe biden his opponent is weak on china but what will that relationship with china look like after the election. Well this is setting up a very dangerous precedent that basically anything and everything can somehow be stripped away under the guise of National Security without any proof at all that its actually a threat and so right now this is the 1st step in decoupling platforms and apps so weve already seen it in Hard Technology like semiconductors its a coupling now from data and now finally seeing this decoupling now from so its possible that we see an aggressive u. S. Administration going after more Chinese Companies so right now the main target is china but other countries should take note that no one is safe essentially and while on the surface its been argued as a National Security issue this actually is something greater than that its communication and social media as those are the platform being targeted which in turn means that this is a direct attack on speech and communication by blocking the most popular apps news to communicate and spread information and news so remember that we chat its not only the texting app its how people receive news feeds they get world updates on whats so and might be a very small step right now as i mentioned. Talking up things and stuff but its a very small step on the path to censorship where communication lines are being threatened and ripple and we could have an entire 30 Minute Program just talking about this but alas we are out of time bus cohosts christiane and ben swan thank you for breaking this down for us today. Thank you thank you. Chad as we have been tracking the race for a covert 19 banks in the United States top Infectious Disease specialists to believes we could see a safe and effective vaccine before the end of 2020 no during a Congressional Hispanic Caucus panel on Global Pandemic so earlier this week dr anthony for you said quote i would still put my money on November December when it comes to vaccine now the director of the National Institute of allergy and Infectious Diseases also told the wall street journal getting past the pandemic will require a quote combination of a good vaccine along with Public Health measures as much of the situation depends on how many people will actually use the vaccine but with all this in mind lets go ahead and take another look at the trend and spread of the good virus globally with our correspondence i. Was right it said randy going into the weekend we are of course we have surpassed already 30000000 confirmed gate cases global that also very close to 1000000 in the u. S. Over 6900000 cases while deaths are over 200000 heres where we are in daily new cases and deaths in the u. S. There were 45434 new cases reported on wednesday thats a one percent decrease from last week so only a very small decrease and there were 849 deaths also only a one percent decrease from last week and the main concern right now is that more young people are getting the virus that would lead to an increase in infection among the elderly and vulnerable which then of course would more pressure on hospitals during the coming winter months when theyre also dealing with other things like the flu so this is what medical experts are afraid of right now which is why its so important for a vaccine to be available before we head into the winter brant and no sir can you actually break down the different factors that are contributing to the various death rates in some countries well you know when looking at just how deadly cold it 19 is the good news. Is that its actually not as deadly as we 1st thought so and there were some early predictions that one in 4 in fact they would actually die but the bad news is that even though the virus is killing a small percentage of infected people it still leads to a large number of deaths so here are the look so there are numerous factors that go into play here right lets take a look here at the top 10 countries with the most deaths related to cold in 1000. 00 that mortality rate that percentage that you see is calculated based on the number of deaths per 100. 00 confirmed cases so each profile of a country has been a major contributor to their mortality for example a quarter or 25 percent of italys population is over the age of 65. 00 or older compared to only 10 percent in india which is why italy has such a higher mortality rate then india so if youre they over the age of 65. 00 your risk will be much higher if youre under 20 its going to be very low and for those with preexisting conditions the virus is much more life threatening but then that wouldnt explain why the us were only 11 percent of the population is 65. 00 plus would have such a high total death count so this is what experts are actually predicting so this is been the 1st Global Health crisis to emerge when theres been instant access to information right the good the bad theres 24 hour news and internet reports so thats really influenced the response of the pandemic here in the u. S. Politics have also played an enormous role in communicating the risk of covert in the u. S. Where democrats and republicans alike are constantly citing come flick to information so obviously age has them in the only factor now outside of the us access to quality hospital care is playing in. Very big role in the virus is a fatality rate so if youre in a place that has advanced Clinical Care and doctors trained to use mechanical ventilators youre of course more likely to survive which explains the higher death rate in countries like iran in mexico india and brazil so since they dont have access to a lot of ventilators or Quality Health care also another way to look at this is another way to look at this mortality rate i should say is to compare overall coleridge in 1000. 00 thats 2 other leading leading causes of deaths now here in the u. S. Its on track to be the 3rd leading cause of death this year behind Heart Disease cancer and a head of accidents chronic lung disease and stroke so the more medical experts really look at this brand theres just no one size fits all approach to quote one theme or gee correspondents thank you for keeping us up to date. Were seeing more volatility as Global Markets are mixed for the week and lets see where things ended up start in russia where the mo x.

Domestic sometimes of its National Health mystically. And welcome back ilan musk space x. s prepping for its next move in development for its mars colonizing starship spacecraft now according to a tweet from mosques sent out on the 12th of september the s n a starship should be ready for High Altitude tests next week now according to space x. The launch vehicle being developed by the company at its boca chica Test Facility will attempt a flight 12 miles into the sky before returning for a controlled landing space x. Has previously launched short range test flights with 2 earlier prototypes the s n 5 in essence 6 but those were short range now meanwhile on thursday the company was forced to call off the launch of its latest fleet of Starlink Internet satellites a space x. Falcon 9 was scheduled to launch 60 new satellites that afternoon but canceled due to a quote recovery issue with the rocket now they were unable to reschedule it friday due to concerns over whether the company has launched more than 700 satellites into orbit to build what they call a constellation designed to offer high Speed Internet throughout the world space x. Is hoping to build a constellation of 1400 starling satellites but musk says 502800 are needed for initial service so for more than just virtualization of the space sector lets go ahead and bring in aaron paygo. Director at the center for space commerce and finance and Rick Tomlinson the founder and chairman of the space bond as well as cofounder of the space brant here foundation thank you both for joining us ric i actually want to start with you here and i want to talk about the ethernet test any time we talk about space and mars we get really really excited because its crazy to think but what do you make of this next round of tests and does it really put any closer to the red planet. Well absolutely you know not just the red planet but the idea of sort of opening up the railway to space its the next test its my understanding correctly theyre going to be having 3 engines slats about 12 miles and thats a pretty serious demonstration. Rather than the little cylinder you can see in flying up and down now theyre going to have the nose kind of the. Thing or it. Should be very exciting and again you know you dont hes doing this a mini is saying just push test flood lots of stuff a lot better keep on go and so its really exciting well its interesting because when we talk about that recovery and we have the recovery issues we saw with starlink which were going to actually get to hear in a 2nd but when we talk about the recovery chute thats the most fascinating thing ive ever seen as these rockets they fly up and then they come in land straight up and its beautiful now erin im sorry i have to get back to this when it comes to the business of space do you see the as they all about mars or are there other business implications at hand here. Well its certainly being developed for mars like thats the end goal but theres going to be a number of near term applications that will probably see 1st you know rick said theyre opening up the railway to space thats a pretty accurate metaphor so a cargo version of the starship will actually allow for heavier payloads with larger design specifications to be sent into orbit and so this could be things like larger satellite arrays that would act as orbital switchboards for increased satellite activity or even modules for habitat in orbit or on the moon so just as a reminder the s i s s was largely built with the assistance of the Shuttle Program and without that Cargo Capacity weve not been able to just been limited so. So for example bigelows expendable module that was added 216. 00 was a it really innovated divine design but it was done because we just had capacity constraints now additionally theyll be some other markets musk has signaled that it could be used for travel on earth im not sure how economically feasible that when it be but especially with like hypersonic airplanes that are being developed but at the very least it could be a different type of Space Tourism vehicle that would be a competitor to large and Virgin Galactic and space perspective now on the air and i want to move to the starling constellation while we talk about the high Speed Internet this could be a real game changer is that correct. It is definitely a game changer for underserved Rural Communities countries in the developing world and hard to reach areas like oceanic shipping lanes those markets have limited wired access so they are usually relying on existing satellite internet which has a dismal upload speed of our band with speed like 25. 00 megabytes per 2nd or cellular infrastructure so having access to high bandwidth and low latency connections which space x. Is town to tout him to be a warm gigabyte perception thats a pretty massive improvement but i want interject just a little bit skepticism because im obviously identifying a couple specific markets this is probably not going to be a substitute for wired connections in the developed in developed markets with existing wired infrastructure building out this constellation is going to take a number of years which starling has been pretty upfront about but thats the service those identified markets also i think they might be presenting some inflated demand figures at the moment theyre citing that they have 700000 people who signed up for the beta testing and thats very impressive but i think that figure probably includes a sizeable portion of people who are in urban centers which is not likely going to be service i dont doubt theres a sizable market here there really is but at the moment we probably havent seen what rep what that is represented and rick i want to get one last thing before we go after the Crew Dragon Mission a few months ago there was a lot of buzz about spaceflight from the u. S. And the international into the International Space station now u. S. But u. S. Based Production Company called Space Hero Inc so this is acquired a seat on a 2023 mission to the i. F. s and that seat will go to the winner of a reality show titled space hero what are your thoughts on this situation about 45 seconds left. So i wanted to people in space hear of their great guns signed up the 1st we were going to fly into the mir put him on the us and said so im really excited about this. Look this is going to go beyond tourism were looking at an era where were going to be able to actually settled and develop space if you like goes to mars great but if we could just get 1020300000 people either in orbit everything opens up Rick Tumlinson aaron peggle thank you both for your expertise today.
