2035 🤡😂

As somebody involved in Filmefex mayself, I always laugh about the brilliant „Roy Schneider explains the maneuver with two pencils“ scene, where he and Helen Mirren seem to experience gravity while the pencils are not… also great outtakes to that scene… They used a pane of glass and Roy Schneider sticks the pencils to it, it failed a number of times, and when it finally works he is so surprised that he kills the scene…. 😀 But I really like 2010 !! The airbraking and all the other things are great VFX / SFX and I think the basic physics are rather realistic (apart from the sound sometimes)

Hardest piloting ever. You land a heavy glider from space with no engine and limited maneuverability.

Great video as always Scott! I am doing my PhD on LISA science, it's nice to see people talking about the project. There's a lot of very cool stuff both on the engineering and on the science sides. You didn't even have time to mention my favorite thing about LISA: it might be possible to detect a gravitational wave background of cosmological origin with it (think CMB, but instead of microwave radiation it's gravitational waves, and instead of coming from the recombination epoch, it comes from all the way back to basically the big bang). This would allow us to see evidence for crazy things like cosmic strings, phase transitions in the early Universe, and cosmic inflation. Right now it's looking very difficult if possible at all, due to all the sources of noise and other signals piled on top, but it's an enticing possibility.

Since we're working in 3D space wouldn't it make sense to have four sensors instead of three?

it should be 4 satellites instead of 3

These types of "prototypes" drive me nuts, because "talk is cheap." I'm a designer in another field, and I regularly come across hyped up concepts, some which get recycled (rebranded), over and over, and get hyped up over and over. But for the most part they just suck the oxygen out of the room. People pay attention to these impractical prototypes that won't go anywhere (in the near or medium term), while paying little effort to more legitimate attempts. The other issue is that, if you wait around for projects like these, they pretty much all take a very long time to go nowhere. It's a recipe for endless frustration. Even if it does eventually deliver, it's always years behind schedule, and there were other things you should have been paying attention to instead.

I want to see instantaneous......i cant envision it from the science standpoint.....someones wrong

Wait, would this mean that space detectors temporarily experience a slightly different speed of light due to the local density of space rippling slightly? Or would light temporarily be exceeding the speed of light if a photon were crossing the ripple?

Just watched 2010 and didn’t like it 😒 wanted aliens

I don't expect I'll still be around in 2035 🙁

Still have my old uniform with the ARADCOM patch on it. Too fat to wear it though. Was 170 lbs. back then. Now 210 lbs.

Nice, but he's no oil well driller.

This is so tragic especially for the young kid that was in there. I am glad it was quick and they wouldn't have known what was about to happen but so terribly sad

Finding out they actually CUT the carbon fibers was very upsetting. In what world is that ever acceptable? Did any of Rush's victims know about that? The glue layers are horrifying, but now you're creating large random weak-points in something that absolutely must NEVER move. I'm shocked it lasted as long as it did.

All bets are on for which one Scott is in that photo!

Oh, the hostile insurgent occupier elect was there?

IIRC, Pulsars do not allow direct observation of gravitational waves, as Scott implies. Instead the energy radiated by gravitational waves during a merger with another stelar mass object results in a faster decay of their orbits. The observed rate of orbital decay of these orbits is consistent with the existence of gradational waves, but this is not a direct observation of gravitational waves, nor was it sufficient proof of their existence. That is if I remember correctly. I must say Scott's coverage of this very complex and difficult mission, and esoteric gradational wave science is top notch, and much appreciated.

Is it really predicting though? I mean if it “predicts” a black hole in 2 months, and we point everything at the location, won’t be still be witnessing something that happened a long time ago?? Isn’t everything we see in space just snapshots of the past?

Thanks!

The internal gravitational requirements of the three individual probes reminded me of the complex rotating super-dense masses that had to be used in Dr. Robert L. Forward's outstanding hard SF book "Dragon's Egg." This is really fun stuff that we are embarking on!

I seen cigarettes fly. Top flight rides and missed that front tooth. God bless Dallas Texas

What is that music?❤

Hollywood need to stop releasing movie showing new spacecraft before NASA actually launched it. Because US education systems 😅

as a jno mobile player, this game has amazing potential. ... there's mods, incase you didn't know/wanted to know.

Is it you sitting next to Paul Mcnamara?

Rip 'banana for scale'

Cool how they sprayed then reignited.

2:50 with headphones in tickles my brain... WITH SCIENCE!

As a 14yr old, this is the most INTERESTING thing I have seen this year (with the spacex chopsticks). I genuinely could not wait to marvel on it in the far future just like how we currently marvel at the James Webb telescope. Wish me luck as I`ll do my best to comprehend the technical blueprints lol.

people joke about the controller a lot, its not like the controller was a contributing factor to the incident, had nothing at all to do with it.

when you say lisa will be able to predict months in advance maybe, how do you mean? i thought this was just a detector so it would only show us when the things hit us, and then we look back and analyze the captured data to. how would it predict stuff, or did i maybe miss something with regards to the spacecraft details

I didn't realize until now how much the flip points the booster out of axis of the direction of travel. I know there's not much dynamic pressure up there but still, what a maneuver.

What song is this? Can Scott or anybody else tell me, please?

not real

spacex - scam !!!

Wait. No disposable interstage ring this flight????

8:08 Scotty with hair. Unbelievable 🤣🤣

Scott, check out Tech Ingredients detonation engine specific impulse. ❤❤. The presenter knows his stuff. ( beats Raptor 4 )

To put a projectile in orbit, you would have to shoot it 25k miles. That's just to land back where you fired it from. With no acceleration after launch, and air resistance, don't see it happening.

The fact any of this sensitive equipment can survive a launch into space is wild.

They "George floyded" LOL LOL LOL

Does anyone really care about knowing *_every single_* rocket launch? Run-of-the-mill starlink launches seem wholly uninteresting.

This was a major engineering failure. The shuttles were not safe vehicles.

why dont we just do this with earth moon and mars?

Brain totally fried, but in a great way, thanks Scott!

I thought of doing something similar many years ago. My idea to use Lagrange points was very naive and would not have worked. I forgot the simplest thing, that all things are moving in space as your video shows. I guess you could stop completely if you got far enough away from most masses, but then you might be out where Pioneer is, with long comm times. I did get the part where it had to be huge. Great video, glad people came up with real solutions.

Horrible video, a lot of missinformation and simplify AF

To bad it's going to take so long to get up there...

sounds like they where stuck in a CNC cutting machine untill pressure neutralize at the bottom of the ocean.. yikes.
