Entertainment
In the summer of 1944, the popular comedian and radio personality Bob Hope began another of his famous tours of military camps for the United Service Organizations (USO). This particular tour made stops in Hawaii and on small islands all across the Pacific theater, where Hope and his troupe performed 150 shows in two months. American military personnel loved the shows.
Hope’s jokes and silly stunts made them laugh and took their minds away from the war for a few minutes. Entertainment gave them something to fight for.
Military commanders in all wars throughout history have understood that morale is essential to a force’s willingness to fight and endure hardship.
While good morale depends __(1)__, many things, including good leadership, clear purposes and good food, entertainment played a crucial role in the morale of American military forces during World War 1l (WWII).

Radio programs, movie showings, USO shows, and visits from Red Cross women serving donuts all allowed soldiers to think __(2)__ something besides the war, to relax and even to laugh.

In 2021, a set of identical twins took part in an experiment that involved one going vegan while the other consumed meat to see which of these two diets is __(1)__. The diets are complete polar opposites, but which one is being __(2)__ to your body?
Well, explorers Hugo and Ross Turner decided to put the plant-based and omnivore diets to the test to see which was better - with Hugo ditching meat and dairy and Ross sticking to a diet that included meat, dairy and fish. The twins took part in the Kings College London study over a 12-week period __(3)__ the same number of calories each day as well as carrying out the same gym training.
Hugo admitted that the switch to a plant-based diet hadn't been easy, but he eventually ended up feeling more energetic. "l was on the vegan diet and it really does take a hit on your body. I was now having to eat fruit and nuts and alternatives that didn’t have any dairy in them - and so that meant | was eating a lot more wholesome food, which meant that my sugar levels were a lot satiated during the day. | felt like | had more energy.”
On the other hand, Ross' meat-eating journey was a little different. As he said, his gym performance was ‘up and down a little bit more’. He added that on some days of the challenge he felt ‘very energetic’ and on others he would have ‘huge lulls'.
By the end of the 12-week study, the men found that the differences between the two diets weren'’t very significant, after all.

Why NASA spacesuits are white
Por que os trajes espaciais da NASA sĂŁo brancos
What do Neil Armstrong, Ed White, and today's ISS (International Space Station) astronauts have in common?
O que Neil Armstrong, Ed White e os atuais astronautas da ISS (Estação Espacial Internacional) tĂȘm em comum?
They all wore a white spacesuit.
Todos usavam um traje espacial branco.
And they're not alone.
E eles nĂŁo estĂŁo sozinhos.
Beyond NASA, space programs in countries like Russia and China also use white suits.
AlĂ©m da NASA, os programas espaciais em paĂses como a RĂșssia e a China tambĂ©m usam trajes brancos.
Not the colors of the Russian flag or China's iconic yellow and red, just white.
NĂŁo as cores da bandeira russa ou o icĂŽnico amarelo e vermelho da China, apenas o branco.
That basic color has saved countless astronaut lives.
Essa cor bĂĄsica salvou inĂșmeras vidas de astronautas.
NASA didn't always have white spacesuits.
A NASA nem sempre teve trajes espaciais brancos.
Their very first manned spaceflight featured silver suits, but none of those astronauts actually explored the vacuum of space.
Seu primeiro vÎo espacial tripulado contou com trajes prateados, mas nenhum desses astronautas realmente explorou o våcuo do espaço.
And that's the key because out there, spacesuits have to be highly reflective.
E essa Ă© a chave porque lĂĄ fora, os trajes espaciais tĂȘm que ser altamente refletivos.
And the best color for that isn't silver, it's white.
E a melhor cor para isso nĂŁo Ă© prata, Ă© branco.
Here on Earth, our atmosphere shields us from 77% of the sun's radiation.
Aqui na Terra, nossa atmosfera nos protege de 77% da radiação solar.
But astronauts in space don't have that natural shield, which makes them vulnerable to blistering temperatures, severe sunburn, and even cancer-causing cell damage.
Mas os astronautas no espaço nĂŁo tĂȘm esse escudo natural, o que os torna vulnerĂĄveis a temperaturas extremas, queimaduras solares graves e atĂ© danos celulares causadores de cancro.
So to combat that, they wear white suits that reflect the sun's harmful radiation.
Então, para combater isso, eles usam roupas brancas que refletem a radiação nociva do sol.
But those white EVA (extra-vehicular activity) suits aren't the only garment in an astronaut's closet.
Mas aqueles trajes brancos de EVA (atividade extraveicular) nĂŁo sĂŁo a Ășnica peça de roupa no armĂĄrio de um astronauta.
When heading into space or coming home, NASA astronauts wear a bright orange suit because that loud orange stands out against the blue ocean and sky and is perfect for attracting attention, so if there's a malfunction during landing and astronauts have to abandon ship, so to speak, they need to be easy to spot for rescue crews.
Ao ir para o espaço ou voltar para casa, os astronautas da NASA usam um traje laranja brilhante porque esse laranja forte se destaca contra o azul do oceano e do céu e é perfeito para atrair a atenção, por isso, se houver um mau funcionamento durante o pouso e os astronautas tiverem que abandonar o navio, então para falar, eles precisam ser fåceis de detectar pelas equipes de resgate.
That being said, times are changing.
Dito isto, os tempos estĂŁo mudando.
Nowadays we have more sophisticated ways of locating astronauts in need of rescue, like GPS trackers and transponders, so space agencies are now free to get creative with their color choices.
Hoje em dia temos formas mais sofisticadas de localizar astronautas que necessitam de resgate, como rastreadores GPS e transponders, de modo que as agĂȘncias espaciais agora sĂŁo livres para serem criativas com suas escolhas de cores.
NASA and other programs are already starting to use other colors like deep blue and mustard yellow.
A NASA e outros programas jå estão começando a usar outras cores como o azul profundo e o amarelo mostarda.
And in the future, they could look a lot different because NASA is heading to Mars.
E no futuro, eles poderĂŁo parecer muito diferentes porque a NASA estĂĄ indo para Marte.
It will be the longest crewed space mission to date, taking as long as three years from start to finish, and during that time, astronauts could suffer from boredom or depression.
SerĂĄ a missĂŁo espacial tripulada mais longa atĂ© Ă data, demorando atĂ© trĂȘs anos do inĂcio ao fim e, durante esse perĂodo, os astronautas poderĂŁo sofrer de tĂ©dio ou depressĂŁo.
That's where colorful spacesuits could be useful.
Ă aĂ que os trajes espaciais coloridos podem ser Ășteis.
