'The Space Race' ULTIMATE SURVIVAL CHALLENGE (USC) ('Winners' get to have their species continue to exist further into future eternity) * Modern science claims that there have been 5 mass extinction events already on this Earth. * We might be in the 6th now due to Earth's magnetism issues. * Modern science also claims that the Sun will wipe out all life on this Earth one day if not even the entire Earth itself. Sure, a long time from now, but the destination is set like a way point on a journey. * Our spiral shaped galaxy is most probably collapsing in upon itself. * The universe always existed in some form and never had a beginning, the singular big bang theory is a fairy tale for various reasons. Galaxies come into existence, with eventually new life in them, which then those galaxies most probably collapse in upon themselves, 'bang', eventually generating a new galaxy with new life in it, eternally repeating. The universe is most probably going to always actively exist in some form and will not end in a big freeze. 'Winners' get to continue to survive potentially throughout all of future eternity. Good Luck Earthlings! Game On! (NOTE: In the event all life dies and goes extinct, this USC, as well as all of life itself, real and artificial, automatically become null and void as there would be no life left to care.) SURVIVAL HINT: Combining energy in all the ways that energy can be combined, and one would have all the things that could ever be created from combined energy. It's also like take a language and put it together in all the ways that language could be put together. Sure, one would get huge amounts of junk, but also the greatest wisdom and all the greatest speeches would be in there too. One just has to discern the greatest wisdom and greatest speeches from all the junk that could be expressed by that language. And what is 'language' anyway but energy combined in a certain form?

Anything political will be criticised, I think this video was mostly unbiased, but I do think that the general western audience recognises too little of how much the Soviets helped with spaceflight, where it is unfortunately assumed the space race had a decisive victor. This is a good video but there's nothing wrong with criticism as it is not just purely stating facts.

[@ronjon7942]

Great comment. Keyboard warriors that love to criticize other’s work are so annoying, rude, and utterly lack social skills. Those who genuinely offer a different perspective and point of view are welcomed by everyone. Those who just love to hate on someone’s work for no reason are just projecting. Free speech is free speech, it’s just too bad when some abuse the privilege of being born with that right. Better people than they made it possible for them to take that right for granted. They seem to forget the responsibilities that are intended to go with their rights. I’m sorry to say I do it myself often enough.

[@ronjon7942]

@@janfilby7086I don’t disagree, especially when viewing documentaries of the Soviet Space Program after so much Soviet information was made publicly accessible. I find it remarkable when authors can remind me of the humanity of Soviet engineers, that Soviet citizens lived with a fear of the West (along with a fear of their State), that Soviets took great pride in their achievements. The Soviet Empire was much more than just an evil machine that cranked out weaponry, bent on our destruction, which is what I had been indoctrinated into believing since I was a teenager in the 80s. Although to be fair, just because it was propaganda and indoctrination didn’t mean a lot of it wasn’t true. As the poet Billy Joel wrote, “The Russians love their children, too.” Ok, sorry, this got a little more dramatic than it needed to be.

Question- we all know the ISS is getting old and will be replaced. Wouldn’t make since to use some of the modules of the ISS to build the new station?

[@Kulumuli]

Space stations have a limited lifespan. I do not know all the metrics of this. Space stations degrade. It seems like to a certain point it is more cost effective to launch a new module than to refurbish an old one.

[@ghost307]

I'd rather have all-new, but I like the idea of using the existing ISS as a place to live and work while the new station is being built as an annex to the original. Once completed, the 2 would separate and the new station would be the only one actively being used. Similar to staying in a camper next to the new house you're building.

[@bluesteel8376]

They are kinda doing this. There is a private space station company founded by former NASA guys that have the rights to attach their modules to the ISS. Using it's life support at first, but then eventually having their own life support and detaching from the ISS at the end of it's life cycle.

Extensive testing is not completely correct, it's more like throwing random crap at a problem instead of finding a solution. NASA engineers have yet to resolve the issue of uneven pressure distribution, a frequent cause of engine explosions. Rather than investigating a solution, they attempted to counteract the problem by increasing the pressure of the fuel entering the nozzle cooler, leading to significant cost overruns amounting to 15 million dollars. This contrasts with Roscosmos, who had figured out that adding more, smaller combustion chambers solves the problem. Also, I didn't call it an accident.

Cheer~~~a large artificial satellite used as a long-term base for manned operations in space.😊

[@Never-mind1960]

Next step needs to be an O'Neil Cylinder that can be used as a long term living and construction facility with artificial gravity. A moon base should only be for mining. We need one big enough to be used as a space hanger. The biggest cost (and danger) of space travel is getting off a planet. Planets are so volatile and unstable, we should not even waste time and money on them. Mars is cool, but will never make a good living place and moons are better for mining. Even if we invent Star Trek Level propulsion systems, planets will still only be good for tourism. Also, spinning space stations will eventually be needed for large populations to escape large scale planetary disasters, such as moon sized asteroids and nearby supernovas. Even our own sun is going to destroy earth eventually.

[@G-Man-half-life]

The iss should have been built to rotate... If the iss had the ability to rotate it would help generate artificial 1g earth gravity for the astronauts so instead of them floating their feet would be firmly on the floor and they can walk freely while on board the iss.

[@Pisti846]

I don't the think it is the right shape.

[@interpl6089]

That wouldn't work...rotating ISS would be difficult to keep in orbit because it's basically falling towards earth at a slow pace and you need to push it up every now and then...also the rotation has to be quite fast in order to be 1G...there are reasons it's not done, it's whole impractical for the shape of the ISS, most of the proposed rotation artificial gravity generators or large diameter wheels because that works the best.

[@ghost307]

That would be problematic. In the astronauts are experiencing 1G, so would the various modules. The connections between the modules would need to hold the full weight of the modules, rather than just being strong enough to keep the air pressure in the modules from forcing them apart.

[@bluesteel8376]

The ISS is too small to rotate and get 1g while also being a comfortable experience for the astronauts. That would also have made it more expensive, which is problematic for obvious reasons mentioned in the video.

[@infiniteloopcounter9444]

It's a research ship that specifically was for zero-G experiments. The whole point was not for a replication of gravity. A new one that rotates ought to really be being built/sent up now though. A more understandable design flaw to point out would be there was no plan to push the ISS into a higher and more stable orbit to preserve it for future generations.

You folks are really wedded to the notion that ISS will soon be retired. I really want to challenge that notion head on. The ISS is a sustainable, habitatble work space, with plenty of capacity for laboratory work, or any other purpose its managers can adapt that space for. It's about to have major upgrades in the form of Axiom Station. It will become exceedingly obviousw to Axiom that continuing to maintain physical contact with ISS is a much better idea than throwing it away. There's also the real, operational need to discover just how durable our human-rated technology is. The Voyagers have been out there for half a century. Hubble, 35. If you remembver MIR, that station was knocking at Heaven's door for a considerable period of time whilst still being visited by Soyuz and Shuttle crews. LEO Stations have the lunxury of a planet-wide parts bazaar capable of sending new parts up as needed. A trip to Mars is either bring a whole spare-parts warehouse with you (note to Elon), or you fabricate the needed hardware from what you brought with you. Regenerative cannibalism (c).
