Physicist Reacts to Kerbal Scuffed Program 3 by martincitopants

[@0hMax]

I've got a feeling you'll enjoy For All Mankind. It's an alternate history of the space race where it just keeps on going, with moon bases and loads of other spoilery stuff.

[@darknewt]

its funny, when I got hooked on KSP is also when i discovered that show and binged the entire thing while playing. great show

[@Fire-superme]

I started watching For all mankind when the episode ‘Red Moon’ came out (first episode) and I fell in love with it and it is my favourite series

[@beimanuel942]

and then for all kerbalkind

My favourite factoid about The Line is that they claim it's better for the environment than a traditional city... now I'm no big city expert, but I think building 200 mile long, hundred metre high wall directly through the desert is gonna impact more than a few animals. Forget roasting them with sunlight, as that's not a major concern, think about migratory patterns, think about how animals that live in deserts need to travel long distances. Luckily I doubt it will make it far, since nobody would really want to live in that dystopian hellscape anyway(I'm talking about The Line, not talking smack about any countries).

[@purplefood1]

Also the displacement of the local humans who have lived there for generations all for the sake of a mad billionaire vanity project that would make most dystopias look good.

[@conorstewart2214]

I think it is ~170 miles long, 200 metres wide and 500 metres high. It will absolutely affect the animals and probably people too. Then there is the ethical concern, they are sentencing people to death or shooting them if they refuse to be evicted, they are also evicting them with no compensation until the buildings are appraised after they are demolished, so chances are that means they will get almost nothing. They are getting as little as 24 hours notice to pack their things and leave and are viewed and branded as criminals, drug addicts or having diseases, its even worse for undocumented migrants apparently. The whole thing is completely unethical and against the, "UN Basic Principles and Guidelines on Development-Based Evictions and Displacement", I would hope the UN steps in soon and makes sure it is done the right way.

[@conorstewart2214]

@@purplefood1 With no compensation until the buildings are appraised after demolition. Also with as little as 24 hour notice. Apparently some only found out they were being evicted because they went outside and the word "evicted" was spray painted on everyones houses, then they shut the electricity off a day later. What worse is they are sentencing people protesting it, to death or in some cases shooting them. I hope the UN or similar steps in soon, they are violating these peoples rights, essentially kicking them out, with nothing, and state media is branding them as criminals, drug addicts and being diseased, to try and get people to view them poorly and make it seem justified.

To say nothing about what it will do to local air currents. which we now know is what caused the sahara to form in the first place. IE massive deforestation that caused local temps to rise, which shifted air currents, which resulted in dryer conditions, all turning the sahara jungle into the desert it is today.

[@NightBeWheat]

12:06 This is a modded playthrough, the core game doesn’t have extraterrestrial construction and lots of engines that appear later in the video.

[@hebonky]

Yes... black hole generators are a real theoretical thing. They surround the thing in mirrors and shoot a laser in it, they then abuse the whole time/space distortions to make power... somehow.

[@onerxowns2202]

By the power OF KRAKEN OFCOURSE!!!

[@mobiuscoreindustries]

I mean one of the easier way is to essentially use the black hole to convert mass into energy. Black holes like most objects in the universe are spinning. By adding mass to them, they spin faster, and by shooting light around them, making it bounce around within it's ergosphere, you can essentially "steal" some of that rotational energy to increase the energy level of your photons which you then extract for power. Black hole generators therefore would essentially be gigantic mass conversions engine, turning worthless things into energy based on their mass.

[@MultiKeto]

far easier ...just throw stuff into them no mirror laser needed. better then fusion.

[@mobiuscoreindustries]

@@MultiKeto I mean you need both a means of keeping the black hole in place and extract energy from it. You get some energy in the form of radiation escaping the black hole and whatever plasma it turned what you threw into it, but unless you are keeping it on the verge of annihilation via hawking radiation you aren't going to get much or at least not very efficiently or in a controlled way

[@MultiKeto]

​@@mobiuscoreindustries you don't need to extract energy from the blackhole itself. if you throw stuff into it about 6%-42% of the mass gets coverted into energy that you can use. we would create an artifical accretion disk around the blackhole. the range of the convertion is based on the rotations speed.

[@techpug1108]

“At least they get to live” Kevin: “Are you sure about that?”

[@CrunchRosey]

A good number of radioactive materials actually produce antimatter during decay. As I'm sure you know, bananas are radioactive, but what you might not know is the potassium-40 responsible for their radioactivity actually produces positrons during its decay. So basically if you have a banana sitting around, you have access to antimatter production. Most of the facilities dedicated to antimatter related business are more used for collection and storage.

[@lukasneuner4760]

using a black hole for power generation is surprisingly possible, by bouncing mass or light into the hole and harvesting the hawking radiation (the smaller the black hole the more power/the closer to a bomb it is). If anyone's interested, I'd recommend Isaac Arthurs videos called: "Black Hole Ships" or "Civilizations at the End of Time: Black Hole Farming". It's a fascinating topic :)

[@foxalpha09]

Yes, but only if its spinning.

[@spiral-tm9uc]

@@foxalpha09 A static non spinning black hole cannot exist because stars spin. Because of angular momentum, the speed of spinning becomes faster the smaller it becomes. So when it collapses into a black hole, it spins thousands, even millions of times per second. We use Schwarzschild black holes (static, not spinning or a low rpm) in equations because it makes them easier.

[@Twist-The-Friendly-Hunter]

The line is hilarious because its basically a death ray in the making BUT honestly looks like a fantastic idea, a self contained mega city in a line that requires no imports and uses natural methods to keep the temperature regulated and the air clean. Now... IS it going to work? Probably not but I hope it actually does, that way we can use the idea and NOT use reflective materials because for what it is, it seems effective.

[@diablo.the.cheater]

Hey, it is theoretically possible to use a black hole as a power source, in a way it is less fantastical than a warp drive, u don't need exotic nonexistent negative mass matter to create a black hole power generator, just LIGHT and mirrors

A kugelblitz is just a giga mrfusion. Throw your rubbish in the black hole and collect energy from the Hawking radiation given off.

Eve is no gas giant, it is an equivalent to Venus albeit its gravity is 1.7x that of Earth (or Kerbin) instead of only 95% and its atmo is 'only' 5 times as dense. It is still a boss to vanquish in the game because getting off Eve's surface is very difficult, especially from sea level. About the complex ressources chains, those are mods. The only ressource in the stock game is ORE, plain and simple. Gilly is Eve's only moon and by its non spherical shape is merely a captured asteroid (but considered as a moon for game mechanics) The game always had problems with surface bases, landing legs and wheels from the start, leading to catastrophic results on launching a scene.

[@Grunok]

A pitstop on the moon is a bad idea for a few reasons. For one, it would be a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the way to wherever we're trying to get to. It'd be like leaving home, stopping at a hotel at the edge of your hometown for a break, then continuing across the country non-stop. A pit stop on the edge of the solar system would be better. For two, it moves. That pit stop could be in the opposite direction of where we're going. Yes, it's not as simple as a straight line, but it can still be in a far less than ideal location. For three, ANY kind of pitstop would use up precious fuel, both landing and taking off, whilst also wasting time.

[@Unethical.FandubsGames]

"Why haven't we built bases on the moon?" Can of worms being opened there. 1. Cost -- bloody expensive. 2. Reason - There wasn't a good one. 3. Tech -- Surviving in space and creating food and resources in space is bloody hard. Especially when that far away. 4. Health -- We've made some advancements in recent years and some preliminary research is promising that we can reduce bone degradation, muscle weakness, and DNA damage. Perhaps even space herpes. ^ Not a joke

[@mobiuscoreindustries]

Cost and reason are honestly the two main ones. Mainly because states care little about the cost of they have a reason to either beat someone or enrich themselves (and space is unfortunately low on the bribery list), and private companies can conjure a reason out of anything that can make a profit, but generating the needed cash is borderline impossible for them. When it comes to tech, the thing is it's not that the tech is that hard, comparatively. rather that just like the mission itself, no one is actually forking the resources to make it happen unless it's needed. Tech needed to survive in space also saves us from the energy crisis down on earth and that is seen as a problem by the current power providers as a dangerous source of disruption, mainly because everyone with an ounce of knowledge in the matter keeps coming back to advanced nuclear reactors as a solution. And as for health it's about the same reason as tech, mainly because just like energy, solving the health problem also puts in jeopardy the current health industry's bread and butter.

You can actually power something with black holes, but only if its spinning. Look up the black hole bomb.

@@NaderinZim While I don't question that being case, I will say countries are known to not follow such agreements if it benefits their bottom line. Not to mention the ongoing conflict.

[@mobiuscoreindustries]

Radiation, while an ever present annoyance, isn't an insurmontable problem and certainly not on the moon where crew rotations are far easier to make, and once the first shielded habitats are finished the actual threat of radiation drops significantly. The real reason is just that the US didn't see the point to continue since they had thoroughly bankrupted the soviets already. Appolo was being let to wind down with the idea that once that done, they could return to buisness as usual. After all they knew and could justify that the program was unsustainable due to how hard it was to move things to and from the moon. Congress wanted more funding for wars and policies back home, something the space program was eating up for little returns (to them). Congress actually got a massive scare when NERVA (the nuclear thermal engine project) ended up working out spectacularly well. The program has successfully operated the engine on the ground and was moving towards space tests, and congress saw a danger in that. If NERVA proved it worked in space, it would have made Apollo sustainable (absolutely gigantic increase in interplanetary payload) and could have even expanded it's reach to Mars. Congress knew they didn't have the funding nor the will for such and as a result canned the project and burried the results to make sure their de-escalation of the space program could work. Nothing is insurmontable when it comes to space, and each of those needed techs has massive knock on effects on earth, and it's exactly why government and lobbies see them with distrust and fear. By definition they are a money sink, that if complete causes a massive shakeup in the dynamics of the planet, who entire governments and megacorporations rely on for their very existence.

Human biology doesn't do well in zero gravity. Even some of our human chemistry just stops in micro gravity. Then you have problems of that nuclear fusion reactor we call a star turning your DNA into Swiss cheese. There is a cool Manga/ Anime called Space Brothers that goes into it somewhat.

[@mobiuscoreindustries]

Depending on which fusion you use, you can potentially go completely without neutron emissions which drastically reduces any radiation emitted.. Even if you stick with regular fusion or fission, making effective shielding isn't actually hard especially since distance and a meter of regolith pretty much shields you form any problem for good. The harder part is to operate reactors on other planets due to the lack of cooling water. Current fusion reactors use water as a core part of extracting energy from the core, and current PWRs rely on water for everything. Molten salts do exist and have been successfully used both in the past of nuclear and currently for many other techs, but it would imply resuming research that was buried in the 60s and that's hard to convince any cowardly risk adverse politician to fund such things

[@conorstewart2214]

Apparently they have started the groundworks for the line and evicted some tribes and shot some people who didnt want to be evicted, some that refused to be evicted have been sentenced to death by the government as well. So its really not off to a good start. As well as the evictions without enough notice, they are demolishing the buildings and the residents will only get compensation after the demolition and after the buildings have been appraised, after the demolition. So really they could just demolish them and then give them almost no compensation because that is what they though the building was worth. Whats worse than that is that apparently foreign nationals are excluded from the compensation. So they may own a house there and live there and they will be evicted and the houses demolished and they wont get any compensation, so has the potential to put loads of people in poverty and wipe out their entire wealth and leave them with nowhere to stay. So they only find out how much money they will get after they have been evicted and their home destroyed. They also arent giving much notice, some areas are getting 24 hours notice they are evicted, and then they cut the electricity off, so they had no idea they would even be evicted but then suddenly they are told they have 24 hours to pack their stuff and leave and have no idea if or how much compensation they will get, so they are essentially being kicked out of their houses with nothing. The whole thing in unethical. According to Amnesty International, "violates international human rights standards and discriminates against foreign nationals". The whole thing is against the, "UN Basic Principles and Guidelines on Development-Based Evictions and Displacement". The people being evicted are also viewed as criminals and drug addicts or having diseases. It really is a completely unethical.
