Summary

On this episode of Expanded Perspectives the guys start offtalking about the Large Hadron Collider, a 17-mile superconducting machine designed tosmash protons together at close to the speed of light, went offlineovernight. Engineers investigating the mishap found the charredremains of a furry creature near a gnawed-through power cable.Then, nimble-fingered robots that exactly mimic themovements of a human hand could soon be used tohelp decommission nuclear powerstations. Remote-controlled robots with hand-like manipulatorsare used in many situations that are difficult or dangerous forhumans, such as bomb disposal. Then, a Kansas witness atClearwater recalled a UFO incident from the 60s when she and twofamily members had an encounter with a disc-shaped UFO that shot abeam of light inside their vehicle. Then, the ancient skeletonknown as Kennewick Man is related to modern Native American tribes,the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Wednesday, opening theprocess for returning to a tribe for burial one of the oldest andmost complete set of bones ever found in North America. TheNorthwestern Division of the corps said its decision was based on areview of new information, particularly recently published DNA andskeletal analyses. The corps, which owns the remains, said theskeleton is now covered by the Native American Graves Protectionand Repatriation Act. After the break, Kyle brings up one of themost mysterious missing person cases ever "D.B. Cooper".
