editor en jefe de la revista Scientific American
y estamos en vivo aquí desde el propio salón del EE.UU. Ciencia e Ingeniería
festival y exposición
que se va el sábado 26 de abril
y el domingo, 27 de abril en el Walter E. Washington
centro de Convenciones
aquí en Washington, DC En la siguiente media hora vamos
charlar con algunos invitados interesantes.
Nos reuniremos los dos fundadores
del festival, Larry Bock y Ray O. Johnson
Vamos a aprender acerca de la cabina impresionante
en Lockheed Martin, fundación del festival
y la presentación de anfitrión
y visitaremos
con la Sociedad Americana de Magos. Por último, vamos a hablar de algunas cosas interesantes
aquí en la revista Scientific American,
que es también uno de los patrocinadores del festival. En el stand de la revista Scientific American,

Y participar en la edición de realidad
una revista científica para niños
llamadas "fronteras para las mentes jóvenes."
Así que ahora vamos a cumplir Larry Bach
y Ray O Johnson,
los co-fundadores impresionantes de la Ciencia de EE.UU.
y el Festival de Ingeniería.
Ray es también
Vicepresidente de Lockheed Martin y director de tecnología.
Muchas gracias por acompañarme.
Nuestro placer, gracias.
Es realmente un placer
Así que nos dicen,
¿por qué se crea el festival?

English: 
And take part in actually editing
a scientific journal for kids
called "Frontiers for Young Minds."
So now let's meet Larry Bach
and Ray O Johnson,
the awesome co-founders
of the USA Science
and Engineering Festival.
Ray is also
Lockheed Martin's senior vice president
and chief technology officer.
Thank you very much for joining me.
Our pleasure, Thank you.
It's really my pleasure.
So tell us,
why did you create the festival?
and what is going on here
this weekend?
You know our premise
is society gets what it celebrates
so we celebrate athletes,
pop stars,
Hollywood actors and actresses.
And we generate a lot of wanna-be's
but we don't celebrate
science and engineering.
So our goal was to put on
the world's largest celebration
of science and engineering.
That's awesome, awesome goal.
What are some (audio glitch) here
and how many people
are you expecting this weekend?
We have literally
a thousand organizations here
doing over 3,000
hands-on interactive exhibits
and 150 stage shows.

Spanish: 
y lo que está pasando aquí
¿este fin de semana?
Sabes nuestra premisa
es la sociedad consigue lo que celebra
por lo que celebramos los atletas,
estrellas del pop,
Actores y actrices de Hollywood.
Y generamos una gran cantidad de aspirantes a la pero no celebramos
la ciencia y la ingeniería.
Así que nuestro objetivo era poner en
celebración más grande del mundo
de la ciencia y la ingeniería
Eso es impresionante, gol increíble.
¿Cuáles son algunos (falla de audio) aquí y el número de personas
Qué espera este fin de semana?
Tenemos literalmente
un millar de organizaciones aquí
haciendo más de 3.000
las exhibiciones interactivas
y 150 etapa de muestra. Así podrás ver todo aquí
Del Cápsula espacial Orion,
el robot quirúrgico, el entorno de realidad virtual
en un extremo de la extrema,
hacer estructuras con malvaviscos
y palillos de dientes
en el otro extremo de la extrema.
Especialmente quiero probar
los malvaviscos y palillos
Tengo que decir,
Soy un poco de hambre esta mañana.
Así que gracias.
Así Ray, estamos aquí
en el stand de Lockheed Martin
Tengo que decir a ustedes,
es impresionante; es enorme.
Hay una gran cantidad de actividades sorprendentes.
Creo que he contado más de 350
Y los niños pueden hacer un viaje a (inaudible)
robot (inaudible)
que yo era la salida de ayer
(Falla de audio)
Háblame de.
Estos son sólo algunos de ellos
Cuéntame un poco más sobre ellos.
¿Cuáles son algunas de las cosas?
Tenemos más de 40 exposiciones aquí,
pero somos parte de cientos de exhibiciones
y miles de manifestaciones

English: 
So you will see everything here
from the Orion Space Capsule,
the Surgical Robot,
the virtual reality environment
at one end of the extreme,
making structures with marshmallows
and toothpicks
at the other end of the extreme.
I especially want to try
the marshmallows and toothpicks.
I have to say,
I'm a little bit hungry this morning.
So, thank you.
So Ray, we're here
at the Lockheed Martin booth.
I got to tell you guys,
it's awesome; it's huge.
There's a lot of amazing activities.
I think I counted more than 350.
And kids can take a trip to (inaudible)
(inaudible) robot
which I was checking out yesterday
(Audio glitch)
Tell me about.
These are just a few of them.
Tell me a little bit more about those.
What are some of the things?
We do have over 40 exhibits here,
but we're part of hundreds of exhibits 
and thousands of demonstrations
that are taking place over
the next two days here.
We're allowing the visitors
to explore some of the new areas.
[?] working robotics, some of the
flight simulators,
which we're well known for and they love,
[?] how to fly the [?] and the F-35

Spanish: 
que están teniendo lugar a lo largo
los próximos dos días aquí.
Estamos permitiendo que los visitantes
para explorar algunas de las nuevas áreas.
[?] Robótica de trabajo, algunos de los
simuladores de vuelo
que estamos bien conocidos por y les encanta,
[?] Cómo volar la [?] Y el F-35
así como las energías renovables,
y algunos de los problemas en el futuro.
Creo que eso es lo que seremos
centrándose en aquí.
Cuando los niños piensan en ir
en las carreras de STEM
Eso es la ciencia, la tecnología,
ingeniería y matemáticas
que piensan de temas difíciles.
Tengo que tomar Cálculo,
Necesito entender la física,
por lo que parece muy difícil y muy duro.
Por lo tanto, muchos niños no son
entrar en los campos de STEM y aquellas áreas [?]
Lo que estamos haciendo en este festival,
como usted ha dicho, el mayor festival
de su tipo en el mundo,
lo que estamos haciendo es
a través de la experiencia práctica,
hacer que los niños entusiasmados.
Y dejar que ellos entienden
que puedan tener
esa misma emoción de la victoria
que se obtiene en los deportes
mediante la participación en la resolución de problemas
en Ingeniería [?].
De hecho, vamos a tener un poco de
porristas de ciencia aqu
un poco más tarde el día de hoy.
Tenemos jugadores de baloncesto aquí,
y cuáles son las porristas
y los jugadores de baloncesto
y figuras del deporte nos ayudan a hacer
es demostrar que STEM es fresco.
Sí, creo que eso es impresionante.
- Es más combustible para las mentes curiosas.
- Exactamente.
Y, como Lockheed y otros
nos han mostrado
si pones ese esfuerzo que te empujará lejos.
Realmente lo aprecio,
era tan estupendo hablar contigo
Larry y Ray, muchas gracias.
¿Hay algo que quiere dejar con la gente mientras
están esperando [?] para subir?
- Yo diría que llegar temprano.
- ¡Sí!
-Número uno.
Y este evento tendrá más
de dos días que se pueden hacer

Spanish: 
por lo que planificar el sábado y el domingo.
Sí, creo que vamos a tener
cientos de miles de visitantes
aquí hoy, y lo bueno
haciendo esto en Washington
es que tenemos un público diverso.
Lo que esto hace es que [?] STEM abajo
[falla de audio] subrepresentadas hoy
en la ciencia [?]
y necesitamos esas personas a
entrar en los campos de la ingeniería y STEM.
Así que por eso Washington es
un gran lugar para tener esto
Sí. No podría estar más de acuerdo
Realmente creo que la ciencia es un motor
de la prosperidad y el bienestar humanos
así que estoy emocionado de que ustedes están aquí
Gracias.
Muchas gracias
Gracias.
Gran tenerte, sé que eres
muy ocupado hoy en día, gracias por estar con nosotros.
Gracias
El gusto es mio.
Gracias.
Así que ahora vamos a estar unimos
por Christopher Bodges
de la Sociedad de Músicos de América

English: 
and also renewable energy, 
and some of the problems in the future.
I think that's what we will be
focusing on here.
When kids think about going 
into STEM careers,
That's science, technology,
engineering and math,
they think of difficult subjects.
I have to take Calculus,
I need to understand Physics,
so it seems very difficult and very hard.
Therefore, a lot of kids are not
going into STEM fields and those areas [?]
What we're doing in this festival,
as you've said, the largest festival
of its kind in the world,
what we're doing is,
through the hands-on experience,
getting kids excited.
And letting them understand
that they can have
that same thrill of victory
that you get in sports
by engaging in problem solving
in engineering [?].
In fact, we're gonna have some
science cheerleaders here
a little bit later on today.
We have basketball players here,
and what the cheerleaders
and the basketball players
and sports figures help us do
is prove that STEM is cool.
Yeah, I think that's awesome.

Spanish: 
y él va a hablar un poco acerca de
fresco ciencia [?] y como se puede ver
en su [?]
- Gracias
Cuéntanos lo que está pasando hoy en día, Chris

English: 
- It's more fuel for curious minds.
- Exactly.
And, as Lockheed and others
have shown us,
if you put that effort it will push you far.
I really appreciate it,
it was so super to speak with you
Larry and Ray, thank you so much.
Is there anything you want to leave with the folks while we
are waiting for [?] to come up?
- I would say, get here early.
- Yeah!
-Number one.
And this event will take more
than two days to do
so plan on both Saturday and Sunday.
Yeah, I think we're gonna have
hundreds of thousands of visitors
here today, and the nice thing
about doing this in Washington
is we have a diverse crowd.
What this does is it [?] STEM down
[audio glitch] underrepresented today
in science [?]
and we need those people to 
enter the engineering and STEM fields.
So that's why Washington is
such a great place to have this.
Yeah. I couldn't agree with you more.
I really think science is an engine
of human prosperity and wellbeing
so I'm psyched that you guys are here.

English: 
- Thank you.
- Thanks so much.
- Thank you.
Great having you, I know you're 
really busy today, thanks for joining us.
- Thank you.
- My pleasure.
Thank you.
So now we're gonna be joined
by Christopher Bodges,
of the Society of American Magicians
and he's going to talk a little bit about
cool science [?] and such you can see
at his [?]
- Thank you.
- Tell us what's going on today, Chris.
I am going to start by telling you
why we're here
because a lot of people might be interested
in why the magicians are
at a Science and Engineering festival.
And the answer is that magic is really
just science mixed with creativity.
The illusions that we create are based
on principals of science,
engineering technology and math
and we give them creative presentations
to make them entertaining
but a lot of scientists and engineers are
hobby magicians

English: 
because of the creative aspect and the 
background magic has in those disciples.
I actually attended a whole conference once
about studies [?] illusions [?]
It's fascinating stuff and we love
to do it. We love to share.
At our booth we have lots of hands-on
activities
Some magical illusions, some optical illusions
that kids can try and adults, for that
matter, can try hands-on
and see what's going on
One of those is this.
- O yeah good, I'm glad you brought some.
Let's put our hands on it
It's just a two liter bottle filled with water
There's a ketchup packet floating inside,
as ketchup packets tend to do
But with a little bit of magic
That ketchup packet
- (laughing)
sinks!
See it went all the way down,
that's cool.
A little more magic it will come right back.
Now, I know magicians are notoriously
uh, careful I would say
about sharing some of their secrets
- This is true
- but if people come to your booth
maybe they'll learn a little bit about 
the science [?]

English: 
They can learn a little bit about that
what we do, we never share our secrets
with anyone who is not a magician.
But if you demonstrate the fact that you
are interested in learning magic
We will share some secrets with you.
And to that end we have a book available
to anyone who's interested.
It's an ebook, but I printed one
so you could see it.
It says "STEM Magic"
This is filled with magic tricks that
are based on principals of
science, technology engineering and math.
They're all things that you can do at home.
Some of them are things that you can print
out, there are a couple optical illusions
in here that you can print out and cut out
and otherwise...
That's super [?]
Otherwise you can read the instructions
and learn to do magic.
And so you can make it on your own
We also have at our booth a full-size
illusion that you can get into
We can remove your head from your body
Not actually. But it sure looks like it.
And it makes for a really great [?]
I'm trying it out! 
It's not like that actually.

English: 
But we don't see the body,
we just see the head.
And you can take a picture where you
have your head on a sword.
So you are welcome to come and
get your head removed.
The reattachment process is slightly
painful and involves some duct tape.
But it's a lot of fun and it's a great
picture to share with your friends.
And we have some magicians there
who are showing some magic for fun.
Awesome.
Thanks very much. Did you have 
something else for showing us now?
I'll show you one more thing.
- One more surprise
Magicians don't [audio glitch] couple
of people, I found that out recently.
A guy came to me and asked me 
if I could change a dollar.
I said of course I can, I'm a magician.
He said he wanted four quarters,
so I took his dollar
and I folded it, one, two, three,
four times [?] and squeeze.
It's getting very teeny
And I opened it back up
and I showed him

English: 
how I ... change ... a dollar.
- Oh man!
I've been staring right at it 
and I do not know how he did that.
See, it's one dollar, it's four quarters.
Get it?
Yeah, it's four quarters, I get it.
Awesome!
He didn't like the joke.
Or the trick.
Was he [?] ? 
- Yeah.
- That's probably why.
So the best thing I could do was
to fold it back up.
Give it another squeeze.
And return it the way he found it so he 
could get his change somewhere else.
(laughing) Chris that was awesome,
thanks a million for joining us
here at the USA Science and Engineering 
Festival and I hope people will come by and
learn more about the science 
behind the illusion.
I hope so, too. We're happy to see ya. Thanks.
- Thanks a lot.
So now, let's meet Jason Osbourne and
Aaron Alfred of Helioquest.
Jason and Aaron, you're joining us actually-
don't be scared, I won't bite you.
You're joining us at the Scientific American
booth, which is at 13:11

English: 
And tell us what you're doing 
with the kids
You've already been [?] that you're
doing awesome things, so let's see.
Awesome. We have a lot of hands-on for 
kids in the Scientific American booth.
We have 'Shark Finder', which is a
hands-on science project,
where kids can actually find and discover
new occurrences or even possibly
new species of sharks.
Absolutely. We're really excited about that.
We also have about a quarter of a ton
of fossils that we give away to folks
that come by and ask really good questions.
And these fossils are just like this.
- Can I have a hold on to one of these?
Oh, absolutely.
- Look at this. It's a little heavy.
What is this [?]
So this is a vertebral whale.
A small whale. And we're giving
hundreds and hundreds of pounds of 
fossils away to kids.
You mean I could get a whale?
- Absolutely.
Actually you could just keep that one
for yourself.
(laughing) That's cool.

English: 
And then we have hands-on for kids
as well. - What is that?
