The Orion capsule is planned for a 2 week, unmanned mission to see how it performs on it's own and in terms of keeping people inside safe outside the earth's magnetic field and with that planned to happen sometime this year with manned flights and the beginning of construction of the Lunar Gateway Station due to take place shortly after NASA stops funding the ISS, I'm of a mind that building a huge-ass telescope on the moon would just be another useful application for a lunar base.

[@BothHands1]

Yeah, the observable universe is limited by the ratio of the speed of expansion of the universe to the speed of light. Each bit of space is expanding, so when you have a large large distance of space all expanding a little bit at the same time, it creates a very large and quick relative expansion between the two end-points. Nothing is actually travelling faster than light, so it doesn't break relativity, but when added together, those bits of space add up to a collective expansion speed faster than light. So stuff beyond 45 billion light years away just cannot be seen, and will never be seen, even if we make a telescope the size of the Sun.

Life is almost certainly not on Titan--too cold. Assuming the tidal forces on Europa are powerful enough to produce geothermal vents like we see on Earth in the oceans of Europa, I think it will be our best bet for finding extant life elsewhere in our solar system. Can't say I know enough about Enceladus to compare its potential with Europa's, but Jupiter would produce more internal heating on Europa than Saturn would on Enceladus.

[@brainmind4070]

Massimo O'Kissed I have some problems with the great filter hypotheses. The only reason a species would have for becoming a truly space-faring species is because their home planet is in imminent danger of becoming completely uninhabitable, there is a sapient species intellectually and technologically advanced enough to put 'manned' spacecraft into deep space and potentially starting a colony or having a generational ship that is basically meant to last 'forever' or at least long enough to reach another star system. Even then, it makes more sense to move to progressively more distant bodies in their own solar system before their star becomes a white dwarf rather than floating aimlessly in deep space where there are no known resources to exploit for most likely thousands of years as they journey to a neighboring star system, where there isn't necessarily any guarantee of a "goldilocks" planet, only material resources that are surely orbiting within the star's gravity well but which they don't know the location of as they would the bodies in their own solar system, which they've been studying for many generations at this point. It may be that the universe is just still too young to have compelled any capable species into the reaches of deep space. Even when the home star becomes a white dwarf, it still might make more sense to construct a Dyson sphere-ish type device huddled around the dwarf rather than venture into deep space, since a white dwarf still outputs energy that can be exploited.

@Innocent Bystander you are so right it's painful. Investing in public education is the silver bullet.

[@jamesroseii]

Wow. Never knew there were metallic layers in our atmosphere. Its awesome to learn something new!

[@angelmatos9143]

The vastness of the Universe. What could be more fascinating & important for discoveries. It's what we don't know that will shape our future.

I’m so glad that I was born in 2000 were gunna experience the biggest steps in humanity ever it’s gunna be awesome to see in person

I worked in the bearing industry we had precision bearings that had tolerances so fine that it was said that if you held one in your hand the heat from your hand would actually alter the tolerance. I am wondering what class of tolerance these mirrors will ride on?

[@Nerrror]

I really appreciate the format with a lot of interviews. Keep it up

[@01sapphireGTS]

Great content. Thank you for posting.

Telescope design is following its own version of Moore's Law. We're now at multiple apertures like computers utilizing multiple processors. Eventually we'll reach the point where the Earth itself will work as an aperture for radio interferometry. It won't be long before we can observe the event horizon of a supermassive black hole and exoplanet discs.

[@MelancholyCrypto]

This needs more funding!

[@GetRocStar]

So if there is an end or edge of the universe then. What's holding the universe? What is the thing containing the universe called???

[@franciscop7529]

Feels so sci-fi that we are building that! What better time to be alive in history! I can't even imagine what we could accomplish if we had the amount we spend on military on pure science!

[@thegeorgiawebwarrior]

There is a guy that makes guitars, in fact he is the fourth largest mfg of guitars, that has come up with algorithms that let drones see in color in the dark. I wonder if this can be used to make telescope images clearer and see farther into the darkness of space. He was on Fox News Sunday 4/28/2019.

[@Arfshesaid457]

OMG you got further and farther right. This is a rare and wonderful thing. Thank you.

[@TragoudistrosMPH]

6:07 what is the y axis (or density)of this graph? Is it representing how sparse the (necessary?) light from that time point is? Does it represent how much the expansion of space would have separated objects?

[@TheTechnoPilot]

It might be worthwhile though to distinguish that we actually have been observing the cosmic dawn for the last few decades, it is the cosmic microwave background, the first photons released at the moment of transition of the universe from plasma to a gas. The drive of these telescopes is to see the gap we currently can't from our furtherest optical observations (not just visible light) to the cosmic microwave background (cosmic dawn).

[@Dyslexic-Artist-Theory-on-Time]

Good info and good news!!!

[@davidgorelle9069]

Lol! That was funny. When buddy there was naming all the different telescopes. I said "they're really not creative with the names". And that's what he said

[@duku9919]

This is the coolest thing i have seen in recent times, maybe ever

[@kelly2fly]

one of mankind’s most marvelous feat of engineering.

[@GOODBOY-vt1cf]

thank you so much

[@somathomas8387]

This is extremely.. Beautiful price of machine.. Its really a Dream Machine...

[@brainmind4070]

I'm all for these big telescopes in getting more detail on optical objects, but how do they plan on seeing the natal universe if all the light is red-shifted into the infrared bands, to which the atmosphere is basically opaque?

[@thorium222]

So would a telescope like the EELT work better if you put it on the moon or is the adaptive optic good enough to make it function on earth just as well?

[@Sanestpenji]

@6:32 Anyone else hear "Drops of Jupiter" first note? I thought they were going to play it. Actually would've fit in quite nicely here. Lmao

[@marianoalippi7840]

Could it be possible starting designing the UI at the same dimension I mean you your body with visual effects inside the UI walking into the 3D Dimension. I saw this with flash programming but now it is HTML 5 and Javascript but Seeker can start it little by little with audiovisual visual effects video photomanipulation.

[@CrimsonHelldrake]

*So glad men dreamed up this kind of technology! men have invented & built some amazing stuff in our world!*

[@mikegreen4986]

why not use a thin film that has a reflective surface like a mirror? would be cheaper and can be built to be very large.

[@mikegreen4986]

@@bigpojo5749 ooh, I see

[@BeanutButterBoy]

I can't wait for the awesome new space pictures!

[@animationspace8550]

comparing the new seeker to the old Dnews really changes the channel completely

[@AnteBrkic]

What if we would like to just see whether there is something far far away without caring for crisp image. Would it be possible to use cheap but large mirror? Along those lines, what would happen if I would build 1 meter mirror from aluminium foil from chocolate? Say I just want to see Mercury really large, without caring about image details.

[@avengersnewbie2348]

Amazed by just what a telescope can do.

[@gigioconio]

Que lindo mi país Chile y sus cielos....

[@weisswurster]

The adaptive optics blow my mind!

[@yashaswikulshreshtha1588]

Those engineers are cute when they said "You know what, this is too much for us"

[@jaimitoelpoderoso]

Oh wow, and here I though Xmas was exciting! This is gonna be something! Can't hardly wait:)

[@mmenjic]

5:59 So black holes can be seen with telescope, nice, they should name it very extremely overwhelmingly larger than large darker than black telescope.

[@mikemills69]

Amateur question, can xl scopes create an eyepiece friendly focal point?

[@deluxeassortment]

What happened to the update for the black hole imaging that you promised would arrive two Sundays ago?

[@FreeZeOpZ]

I feel like eventually they’ll make a telescope that can look into a planet in another galaxy and they’ll find life. It doesn’t have to necessarily be aliens or whatever you want to call them, but there’s no way that humans are the only life on small planet earth based off the fact that there is an entire universe.

[@kylaligayo2366]

" Race to see he edge of the universe.. " woah cool. I also thought before watching that maybe there's already a possibility to the looking to the edge already, but it says "race, " yeahhh awesome
