- 2:23Speaker 1: correction from last episode. Rocket Scientist John pointed this out
- 2:29Speaker 1: to us. He said, on your question about the largest
- 2:33Speaker 1: metropolitan areas, you said Alaska is not part of the
- 2:37Speaker 1: continental US, but Alaska is on the continent of North America.
- 2:43Speaker 1: So the usual term to exclude Alaska or Hawaii is
- 2:48Speaker 1: contiguous US. And I feel bad about that. I felt
- 2:53Speaker 1: like something was wrong, but I couldn't figure out why
- 2:56Speaker 1: at the time. That explains it. So thank you for

- 16:38Speaker 1: language media since at least nineteen ninety eight, and that's

- 17:48Speaker 2: lot and astronauts. Yeah, we don't hear.
- 17:52Speaker 1: Well, it's kind of a murky origin for that term
- 17:58Speaker 1: because from what I understand and over there they call
- 18:01Speaker 1: them hong te ony on, which is heaven or cosmos
- 18:06Speaker 1: navigating personnel, and that's what they use for their own astronauts.
- 18:12Speaker 1: But yeah, taycho knots I think comes from some version
- 18:17Speaker 1: of like space traveler. It's kind of I got the
- 18:21Speaker 1: sense it was kind of cobbled together in maybe a
- 18:24Speaker 1: slang term or something like that, but I'm not sure exactly,
- 18:29Speaker 1: but yeah, that's if you ever hear that that term,
