From July 2022, Anderson Cooper's report on EVTOLs. Also from July 2022, Bill Whitaker's story on startups and NASA working to return passenger supersonic flights to the sky. From March 2020, Jon Wertheim's look at the new technology of driver-less trucks. And from April 2018, Scott Pelley's visit to M.I.T.'s celebrated Media Lab, the "Future Factory."
"60 Minutes" is the most successful television broadcast in history. Offering hard-hitting investigative reports, interviews, feature segments and profiles of people in the news, the broadcast began in 1968 and is still a hit, over 50 seasons later, regularly making Nielsen's Top 10.

For self driving trucks, my concern is that we're not preparing for the economic impact of rendering a whole industry obsolete. There are over 2 million CDL holders in the US, and the implementation of self driving tech will put a lot of people out of work without a plan to prepare for the unemployed. A more efficient way to transport freight would be to improve America's rail network and increase rail volume. Not to mention the safety concerns of self driving tech in general.

@@AndrewBlair6700 I did trucking school 2 summers ago and I worried about it as well before I even got hired. People told me I was wasting my money and soon there would be no need for it. In 2 years I made enough money to pay off some loans, most. Notably my truck payment. Built up a damn good amount in savings while also feeding myself and my family and open doors to several careers that partially involve driving mixed with labor. I was worried about self driving 2 years ago and I’m still out here making good money but I will come off the road in the next several years. Self driving is without a doubt a question of when and not if but dont let people or Google scare you into thinking it’s next month.

The 3rd Air Taxi is the way to go. Autonomous. Make it a bus line, with a pre-determined route. Simplify. Don't let customers choose a destination. Pick popular and busy departure point, landing point. Across congested highways. In fact, you can have them fly above the roadway, to minimize time over residences/property.

These would be useful as an emergency lift to the hospital. Not just to skip traffic on the way to work.

@grenzviel4480 Ай бұрын

until battery density and charging is improved, none of these will truly be practical. Helicopters are still better for emergencies because they also carry extra people (and supplies) who can tend to, and monitor the patient while getting to the hospital. Not to mention, the power requirements are way higher because emergencies don't always happen on the greatest of weather conditions. It needs to be able to resist and fly against a certain level of wind, all this adding a LOT of weight. In the end, it's all about carrying capacity and ease of use. Batteries take forever to charge, compared to refueling with fuel. You'd need to be able to hotswap batteries to make it practical, but then you run into a logistics problem of needing batteries from the departure area and the destination, which means all batteries would start needing to be tracked for safety, etc. Batteries would also need to be standardized etc etc. But then what about new models? Even drones from the same company update their battery design in just a few years, whereas aircraft from the 1960s can use modern fuel (Avgas). Basically, these things are a long way away from being practical to the general public. I say they should consider focusing on hydrogen powered engines/motors instead of depending on batteries.

Landing pads on buildings was tried in NYC till a NY Airways helicopter crashed on the roof of the (Pan Am) Met Life building and had to be disassembled and brought down piece by piece in the elevator. I believe in the idea and have invested in Joby since they have already received their FAA Part 135 license but with the cost of the airframes and the batteries, this is going to be a tough business model. For instance, the lack of range eliminates rural areas from service, and then there are the landing charges of the FBOs which add up quickly using the "taxi" model.

female trucker made a good point: accident ahead on the highway, and your vehicle needs to follow police instruction and re-route on the spot (driving on the shoulder?). I have criss-crossed the U.S. for thousands of miles. There is always an accident or an unpredicted change.

Having a large single screen in the X-59 is a mistake in my view. You should not have a single point of failure for something as crucial as this. I would split the screen into 2 as in the F-35

So if they not ready then explain what exactly we are seeing in the sky at early late morning hours moving around up there above the clouds that we know is not an airplane of the commercial planes moving about and don't have the same lights shown when actually viewing these crafts at those early hours?

Visions of a futuristic world meets reality. I wonder what kind of world today's children will grow up in, and then what it will look like in their golden years. If it's anything like I have seen through technological advances, I can't even begin to imagine how adaptable they will have to be.

i’m always curious to ask people older than me (i’m 19) how they view the technological shift in society, how much changed for you and did it shock you how much progress has been made ?

@@LiverPrime1 I can remember getting our first color TV! No internet, of course. No credit cards ... everything changed. Everything was so much easier back then. It has shocked me more than you could imagine. I am still shocked every single day by technology. It is wonderful that such a young person as yourself is taking an interest! Good for you!

Funny thing is, I became a webmaster for a school district for about four-years :) I remember having a terrible nightmare about the internet having heard about it, but never having seen it. I remember thinking, well it could never be like that, thank goodness! And it wasn't at first, but now it is.

Metal propellers should be a requirement. It would be for me. I had a drone have a prop failure, and it ended up in pieces. Even losing power on one motor is can send you out of control. The insurance costs to operate one should be able to cover the costs of anything they could crash into. That Joby is the best so far. The super and hypersonic future is very exciting. Self driving semi's is a step to far! I have been in a blizzard pileup. When a human is in a semi, they will aim away from the accident. Self driving is designed to stay on the road, and in your lane.

The model of the aircraft is great, yet there are numerous areas in designs that it can develop, particularly the propellers, since the projections of wind comes differently, it can be under or it can be at the sides, depending on the type of spheres that the unit is into, it should be able to add some added security for short distance travel, solar can be incorporated, or mechanical itself is incorporated altogether, it can HARNESS, MANUFACTURE ENERGY with its " NEW ADDED MECHANiCAL" FEATURES.😊
