On this episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys start out talking about\\xa0a mysterious incident from the 1969 Apollo 10 mission. Declassified in 2008, NASA tapes reveal the three-man crew heard weird "outer space type music" \\xa0while orbiting the dark side of the moon. For the entire hour, the astronauts discuss and describe the music, even debating whether to inform NASA command. Then, for decades, robot hand design has tended to favor function over form, drawing from the world of man-made machines rather than intricate biology.\\xa0Zhe Xu and Emanuel Todorov, from the university\\u2019s Department of Computer Science & Engineering, began by laser scanning the hand of an actual human skeleton and using the data to 3D-print artificial bones. Then living tissue will grow over the artificial bones. Next, the talk about how recently an anonymous witness claiming to have seen thousands of files relating to \\u201cUFO/ET\\u201d projects while working at the Naval Telecommunication Center at NAS Moffett field in the late 80s, says he is going public because his secrecy agreement has expired and he would like the government to disclose what they know on about UFOs and aliens. Then,\\xa0a team from Endurance Exploration Group used a remotely operated vehicle\\u2014or ROV\\u2014to recover a glass bottle, a chamber pot fragment, and a piece of china that had been sitting on the seabed some 1,000 feet below the Atlantic Ocean\'s surface for more than 150 years.\\xa0It was confirmation that they had discovered the resting place of the SS Connaught, a 370-foot-long steamer that sank April 21, 1860, about 100 miles from Boston.\\xa0Now, Endurance is formulating a plan to retrieve the Connaught\'s suspected bounty: millions of dollars in gold coins. After the break the boys get into two really interesting lost or hidden treasures. The Spider Rock Treasure and Forrest Fenn\'s Treasure. \\xa0The Spider Rock Treasure starts off by strange discovery of an unusual rock\\xa0by a man named Stewart who was at the time working on the legendary \\u201cSpider Rock\\u201d Spanish gold burial in the cedar brakes country near the Salt Fork of the Brazos River in Stonewall County.\\xa0The Spider Rock map was dug up by a group of treasure hunters in 1908. A blueprint was made of the \\u201cmap\\u201d since the mysterious rock itself has become lost.\\xa0Out of all the Spanish treasure tales in the North Texas area, the Spider Rock story is probably the most authentic because of the finding of the buried map, number of relics and ancient smelter sites. Many of the clues the map laid out have been discovered and some of the reputed treasure even found. Forrest Fenn\'s Treasure is something all together different. This is the tale of a modern day hidden treasure that was intentionally buried by the Millionaire. Thanks for listening to Expanded Perspectives, have a great week!
