TheDailyWoo - 506 (11/19/13) The Solar Walk

0:05 Welcome everyone. Adam the Woo here

0:05 coming to you from a nice crisp morning

0:09 here in Gainesville, Florida. A college

0:11 town. The University of Florida is here

0:14 in Gainesville, Florida. You can see the

0:16 traffic behind me. It's early morning. I

0:18 just woke up, crawled out of my van, put

0:21 my hoodie on, put my sunglasses on, and

0:24 now I'm watching all the college

0:25 students, and they're really awesome old

0:28 school looking bugs, Volkswagen bugs,

0:31 going to class or going to work here in

0:34 Gainesville, Florida. It's my second

0:36 channel, Daily Blog channel. It's the

0:40 daily solar walk. It's a solar walk.

0:44 Have you ever been on a solar walk, sir?

0:47 Sir, have you or your wife or your child

0:51 ever been on a solar walk down a

0:55 sidewalk like this one? Well, you have

0:58 now son or daughter or pet or whoever's

1:04 watching this daily. Woo! In

1:08 2002, this was formulated as a plan and

1:11 brought to fruition right here on this

1:14 little thoroughare in Gainesville,

1:16 Florida. I'm kind of wondering if all

1:18 this traffic and onlookers and drivers

1:21 even care about or even have any

1:23 knowledge of the solar walk. It's the

1:27 solar walk. And what is the solar walk,

1:30 you might ask? Well, we have a little

1:32 remnant here letting us know a little

1:35 tidbit of info in the form of a placard.

1:38 Whoa, that guy's whistling. He's not

1:41 whistling at me, but he's whistling

1:42 because there is traffic coming across

1:44 in the form of pedestrians. It's very

1:46 early. It's about 7:30, 8:00 in the

1:49 morning here in Gainesville. There's

1:50 school traffic, not the college, but

1:53 regular elementary and high school

1:55 traffic going to class, going to school.

1:58 It's a plethora of knowledge here in

2:00 Gainesville, Florida. And I'm going to

2:01 give you some knowledge in the form of

2:04 the solar walk. Look at this. The

2:07 Gainesville Solar Walk right here. A

2:10 scale model of our solar system. Wow.

2:15 Starts off with the sun and of course

2:17 Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto

2:20 are way down that way. Starts off in

2:23 order. I'm believing it's in order. I'm

2:26 not super knowledgeable about the order

2:28 of the planets. Maybe you could give

2:30 some info by leaving some comments down

2:31 below about what you have factual in

2:35 your noggin about your brain knowledge

2:39 of the planets and the solar system and

2:41 the stars. Not the stars. Well, the sun

2:43 technically is a star, I believe, but

2:45 about the planets here on the solar

2:48 walk. Look at this. The sun to Pluto is

2:52 3.6 6 billion miles and they've scaled

2:56 it down to less than a

2:59 mile.9

3:01 miles installed in 2002. So it's been 11

3:06 years since they have installed these

3:08 little monolths of concrete right along

3:11 here. Planet

3:14 monuments. We get a closer look. We can

3:16 get up close and personal with some of

3:18 these really awesome structures that

3:21 have actually been dedicated to the

3:22 planets that other creatures, other

3:25 aliens might live on. And aliens known

3:28 as humans, you and I live on Earth. But

3:31 we're starting here with the sun. Look

3:32 at this. The

3:35 sun. They almost look kind of run down,

3:38 but I think that's actually how they

3:39 were made. I think they were made to

3:41 look like this. From a distance, they

3:43 look kind of like abandoned and a little

3:45 bit decayed, but really that's not the

3:47 case. They're actually in pretty good

3:49 shape. A lot of little info right here.

3:51 So, if you're in Gainesville, come out

3:53 here and take the solar walk. Also, it's

3:56 very, very, very lengthy. It starts off

3:58 with the first cluster of planets that

4:01 are all together closest to the sun, and

4:03 it goes way down that way. I'm not

4:05 really sure, maybe about a half a mile

4:06 or a mile. So, you got to put your

4:08 walking shoes on. If you're going to

4:10 walk through the solar system, make sure

4:12 you have some walking shoes on, unlike

4:14 my flip flops. See, I have flip flops

4:17 on. You don't want flip-flops when

4:19 you're walking through the solar system.

4:20 Well, really, you do. I wear flip-flops

4:21 pretty much anywhere. Unless you're on

4:23 the sun. If you're on the sun, your

4:25 toesies are going to get burned. My

4:27 toesies are getting

4:31 burned. I can't believe I just said

4:33 toesies, but it is early and I really

4:36 have not had my caffeine. I need to stop

4:37 talking about how I need to get

4:38 caffeine, but it's very early. It's

4:41 around 7:30, 8:00 in the A.M., maybe a

4:44 little late or 8ish. By the time I get

4:45 this uploaded, I probably about 8:30 or

4:47 9, but it's still somewhat early. Too

4:51 early really for these sunglasses, but I

4:53 have a tremendous buildup of sleep and

4:55 and my eyes still have not awoken

4:57 yet. So hopefully soon. Hopefully the

5:00 solar system and it's the excitement of

5:02 the solar system and

5:04 Mercury. What is this? a sign for

5:08 Mercury. Look at

5:10 this little mirror. There's a little

5:12 mirror. Look at that. There's us in

5:14 there. There's us right there. Look,

5:16 there's us right inside of there.

5:17 There's my

5:19 glasses. There's all kind of little

5:21 weird cylinder spheres of marble in

5:24 here. I'm not really sure what that is

5:26 dedicated for. All kind of info along

5:29 the solar. Not only are the planets, but

5:32 also look at this. That's the comet of

5:35 Haley, also known as Bill Haley's comet.

5:40 Haley's comet right there. I remember a

5:42 long time ago when I was a child,

5:44 Haley's comet was coming

5:47 through. And my dad and I, that's

5:49 Haley's comet right there. That's not

5:50 the comet we saw, but my dad and I went

5:53 out in the middle of the woods. We lived

5:54 in the panhandle of Florida at that

5:56 time. It was freezing cold. We tried to

5:59 see Haley's comet in the darkness in the

6:02 nether regions of the woods and we

6:04 looked up in the sky and we could not

6:06 find it. We didn't see it. Everybody was

6:09 excited about Haley's comet and the

6:11 excitement of that whole historical

6:14 event where Haley's comet comes through

6:16 once every what is it 97 years, 92

6:19 years, 118 years, four years. I don't

6:23 even know how often Haley's comet comes

6:25 through. But it was an exciting event

6:27 that we miss. We did not see Haley's

6:29 comet. And the reason, Dad, we did not

6:32 see Haley's comet is because it's right

6:34 here. It has landed in Gainesville. H

6:40 Gainesville. What is

6:42 Gainesville? Gainesville. It's Haley's

6:45 Comet right here. Haley's

6:49 Comet in Gainesville. Okay. We have

6:51 Venus down there. We have Earth. That's

6:53 us. We're right there on Earth. Wow.

6:58 We're actually going to look at us from

7:00 a totally opposite angle. These people

7:02 are probably all wondering what I'm

7:03 doing. And they're wondering why they're

7:05 here when they should be in here. Earth.

7:08 That's Earth right there. So, if you

7:10 look up in that cylinder way up there,

7:13 that guy driving by right there in that

7:15 truck right there could actually see

7:18 himself right there. Sir. sir in the

7:22 truck right there. He's actually right

7:24 up there witnessing himself going to

7:26 work or to school or wherever else you

7:29 go in that white Ford or is that a Chevy

7:33 truck? Work truck. Maybe he's going to

7:35 school in a work truck. Could you

7:37 actually do one other thing in a vehicle

7:39 that's made for another purpose? I think

7:42 you could. I serve a lot of purposes

7:45 that have nothing to do with the

7:46 original purpose that I started off on.

7:48 I was going to do a vlog about these

7:51 But I've just started about

7:58 cavit. All right, I'm going to let you

7:58 guys go. I really am not even awake yet.

8:01 Really, I have not even awoken yet. I'm

8:04 going to keep walking down this way and

8:06 I'm going to go back to my van and I'm

8:07 going to continue on. I'm kind of

8:09 heading north, maybe a little bit

8:11 northeast. Who knows where I'm going to

8:12 end up today in Florida and then I'm

8:14 going to keep careening northbound. Make

8:16 sure you hit me up on the social

8:57 you pay more attention to me when I

8:59 sing. I pay more attention to myself

9:01 when I sing. Now, pay attention to

9:13 this. Random, non-coherent ending to a

9:13 vlog that has nothing to do with the

9:15 original point of the vlog. Goodbye.
