Bro. If it took New Horizons 9 years to get to Pluto why would it take 100 years for humans to get there. Care to explain yourself in a future video. Also doesn’t Pluto take like 250 years to orbit the Sun ?

[@sneakyquick]

The longest time in the universe is how long it takes for this video to explain how far away the planets are

[@kevinrooney6348]

Couldnt make it past 8 minutes when the narrator told us 5 times that finding moons around pluto avoided the damage and destruction of the spacecraft. Like first of all the likelihood of hitting those objects is extremely close to zero, and secondly if they were gonna hit the moons theres nothing anyone could have done about it

[@patrickjolly1923]

Yes, It does take over 30 years for Pluto to go around the sun once, but it is also over 230 years too. @00:43

[@armstrongro]

According to NASA it takes Pluto 248.59 years to orbit the sun. Also, the New Horizons Spacecraft was launched in 2006 and flew past Pluto in 2015, by my maths that works out at 9 years not hundreds. I usually like Insane Curiosity videos, but this one is so bad I stopped watching after 2:20.

Well the voyager probe used gravity assist from the rare planetary alignment so it was able to reach speeds that only fuel could not.. but it still won't take hundreds of years lol

[@thorfinsky1427]

Voyager 1 flew past Pluto's orbit in 1989, how would it take "hundreds" of years to get there?

[@srobeck77]

100's of years if it were manned. U missed that part is what happened.

[@kjnewell7243]

The background music makes it hard to hear narration at times. But great video overall

[@kevanhubbard9673]

It wouldn't take hundreds of years to get to Pluto one human made craft has visited it, New Horizons, and although they didn't visit Pluto Pioneer 10 and 11 and Voyager 1 and 2 are way past it's orbit and it didn't take them hundreds of years.Humans however need to eat and drink so wouldn't be able to do the same trip as those 5 probes.

[@mhult5873]

If Persephone indeed is launched and begin orbiting Pluto in 2058, then I will be around 80 years old at that time. I hope I´m around to see the pictures from the side of Pluto we didn´t get as detailed photos of from New Horizon. I also hope there is no delays for the Persephone mission, if possible I hope for an earlier date of orbit insertion. (Persephone seems to be a good chosen name, from what I can tell when searching for the name´s meaning / background.) I also hope we copy the design and send orbiters to both Neptune and Triton, to both Uranus and Miranda and all the other moons of both planets.

[@davislee97]

All the planets in our solar system are within one light year from us. You said it yourself, Pluto is only 5.5 light hours away from us. All the other planets are closer than that. You make it sound like Pluto is farther than a light year. Might want to do some corrections. @03:26

[@JonSwaim]

Tone down the music, it’s blaring over your voice

[@aseaboch]

The closest star to Earth is the Sun.

[@astitched]

the music is mixed way too loud.. cool video though

[@L-STizZL3]

-6:15 it’s actually Sputnik Planitia. NOT Planinninum -It takes Pluto approx 248 years to orbit the sun not 30 -it’s pronounced “kar-on” not Sharon -at the time when new horizons launched it was the fastest spacecraft ever (since beaten by the Parker probe) and launched in 2006. It arrived at the Pluto system in 2015, took 9 years and not the suggested hundreds. And when talking about going to our nearest star, we’re talking tens of thousands of years. -11,000 foot mountains are “really tall” indeed!! I feel like I was watching a video for a 5 year old along with totally misguided information. I normally enjoy these videos as basic as they are as background noise but i feel you guys have been slippin lately. Let’s get our facts straight, use more REAL photos as there are hundreds available to you and maybe gear your content more to young adults/adults as they are your target audience after all! Thank you!

[@leebuckley7436]

Odds of hitting them moons? If you bet on it you'd better have got a lottery ticket the same day

[@juliogaleano2063]

I wouldn't count very much on NASA but rather on private enterprises like SpaceX for that kind of endeavors

[@pixeldigm1998]

Great video! Persephone is pronounced per-sef-a-nee (like the Greek goddess of the underworld).

[@Mr_Oggie]

Have you ever watched back your own videos? I like the content, but they are so hard to watch the way the audio levels are constantly going up and down - and its not just this video but how you've been doing them for quite some time. I made it to 6 minutes in to this video before I just had to stop watching :(

[@Predatorial1]

I'm sure it would take crew with adequate life support systems and fuel reserves some time longer than the probes to reach Pluto, but hundreds of years? I don't think so. I didn't even bother waiting to see what they had to say about a journey to Proxima Centauri as I lost confidence in their credibility. I'm sure they said something like trillions and trillions of epochs, LMAO!

[@richhead1999]

Saying it takes over 30 years to orbit the sun is accurate, I guess, but saying Pluto takes over 247 years to orbit the sun would be less misleading. I had to watch the beginning a few times to make sure you said "over 30 years."

The information in this video is wrong on so many levels.

[@SteedRuckus]

Okay, so you guys deleted my comment...let me put it in a way that meets your guidelines, specifically the one about how "questions are encouraged"... What was the motivation to deviate from objective, space-related content - that you're so well-known for in the first place - in favor of a subjective video only explaining or exploring one side of an issue? Every sentence with "catastrophists" in it was a subjective statement (i.e. an opinion), so why the shift? I think my original comment was more than respectful in the way I stated it, so if you continue to delete what you claim to encourage, I'll have no choice but to conclude that you do not actually have the objectivity that I once thought your channel had.

[@SteedRuckus]

Also, I'm only including it on this video because there is a relevant difference in the objectivity of THIS video (and the normal subjects you cover) and the video(s) in question, so this is not an irrelevant question in relation to this video.
