TIMELAPSE of Future Space Stations

What happens when humanity begins living in space, building larger space stations, and creating a purely space based economy. Space drones will deliver goods between stations, farming stations will grow food, and space hotels will host celestial events and viewing parties for eclipses and welcoming parties for spaceships returning from Mars.
This sci-fi documentary takes a look at the future of space stations and space technology, starting with the retiring of the International Space Station, and ending with the construction of the largest rotating ring world space station, with its own atmosphere and lakes that evaporate creating clouds and rain.
Other topics in this video include: stealth based technology and metamaterials, the future of Starship Mark 2, cryo refuelling in space, Moon space stations, the Mars Colony, asteroid mining station, future space telescope stations, design concepts, and cryo sleep,

[@tekmepikcha6830]

The recent episodes of Venture City highlight a sobering reality: even in an advanced space-faring civilization, human vices persist. Despite technological progress, the show depicts a future where man-made laws, security measures, and moral frameworks remain inadequate. This futuristic world mirrors our current society's corruption and divisions, suggesting that humanity's challenges may transcend time and technological advancement.

[@brianarbenz1329]

Very imaginative and well thought out. And I appreciate how you didn't candy coat the future. No paradise. Social issues and economic tensions are large parts of life. And it's about encountering new environmental and technical problems as fast as we solve old ones. That makes this projection authentic and plausible. However, I'm still skeptical about the whole idea of developing human habitats beyond near Earth. Possible, but not practicable.

Interesting, but with how things are going politically and the funding (or rather lack of it) that NASA gets, I think the 22nd century is a more realistic timeline for this video than just a few years from now.

[@MichaelWinter-ss6lx]

Funding is irrelevant. Four commercial space stations for LEO are being built right now. Plus a Chinese national station and a NASA station in Moon orbit. Thats six space stations in 2031, unless India also starts one. 🚀🏴‍☠️🎸

[@esioanniannaho5939]

Why Not Put the ISS into Moon Orbit. Then you will have a habitat scientific equipment material etc ? Also could you please do a video on the O'Neill Space Cylinders etc. Very Interesting Video 😊

[@MichaelWinter-ss6lx]

Thats what the 2170 station was. Did they mention a video about that? And why ISS? - Because they have not recieved the money and neccessary thrusters from you. Buying the ISS won't be enough; you'll need to have enough for maintenance costs. After seeing trump in action, nobody will relie on any contract any more. It is simply safer to dispose this huge space junk. 🚀🏴‍☠️🎸

[@nono-yh2vi]

The cost of building a new space station and putting it into space is less than putting the iss into the moons orbit plus the iss is pretty outdated by now alot of the stuff on it is severely due for a upgrade and it is also rapidly approaching the time to where it becomes sort of dangerous for crew to use the iss

[@monosodiumglutemate8216]

All the astronauts look angry sad upset or scared. Not a single positive emotion. Not even a poker face.

[@mathewsvensson3786]

To be fair its accurate to the described lore of this timeline, since I bet that any person would be in a state of constant negativity if they had to pay for everything, including the air they breathe and the gravity they use to walk ;) Edit: In all seriousness though, I kind of agree with this criticism of yours, and I hope it's something that will be improved upon as this channel and the AI generative programs it's been using continue to advance.

[@davidcariens9475]

Maybe Photoshop all the astronauts laughing really hard all the time

[@randybentley2633]

One of the interesting potential uses for the Starship would be for it to saunter out to the JWST so that it could be refueled, repaired, or refurbished. It seems a waste not to do so given its price tag.

[@HarryOttele]

Here is a way to build a space station in 40 launches. It will be a square ship and booster like StarShip. 12m square at the base engine area. Above the tank area the side tapers 5 degree in to the nose. All ships will connect side by side a=making a ring. This gives about 240 feet Radius at the outer level and 3.5RPM will give 1g. The level under the nose at 3.5RPM will give .66gs and at 2.5RPM will be .34 MARS gravity. The Nose of the ships will be for docking and StarShip act as thrusters. At 3 nose docks will be 1MW Nuclear generators supping the station with 3MW. Smaller KILO 5w generator can be use on Lab sections.

2:35 - Doubtful. Most likely, these stations will be automated, or, there will be a rotation of crews who are stay on such station a few months at a time, just like today's modern submarine and oil rig crews. Fuel costs will be the primary reason for this sort of arrangement.

[@gasolinejunkee]

Brilliantly done as always guys, thumbs up. But unfortunately your time-lines just never hold, they´re just way too optimistic 😉 [Mentioning "Timelapse of future spacecrafts"] Like 5 space stations already in the early/middle 2030´s, seriously?! I think all of these developments will take (much) longer. But like I said, nicely done! 👍

[@Milflovr999]

Out of all the future/space channels you guys are number one, top notch when it comes to production, quality, ideas, realism, storyline and everything like that. One thing we space and future enthusists, haven't seen yet is a dedicated video that would be based on Digital Life/uploaded consciousness/A group of real people(maybe who have fully functioning brains, but problems with there body, ex: paraplegics people or else in wheelchairs people with neurological disorders things like that)V.R. It would be very interesting to see your guys's perspective on digital lives. For example a spaceship is sent to a near star, and it has an AI robot on board that builds a space habitat for humans. When the habitat is completed digital DNA is sent to that station at the speed of light, like satellites send info back to earth. Then the digital dna is printed into "experimental blank embreoyeos" ,and then the The embryos could be could be grown in the artificial wounds like you guys mentioned in your video, and could even have very human-like robots ?robots who have been trained on millions and millions of full sets of different mothers and the best techniques to raise the children in space so they are socially experience and thousands of systems installed so they are socially experience and thousands of systems installed so they are socially experience and thousands of systems installed so they are not socially awkward,

[@VentureCity]

Glad you enjoyed the video. I made a video a while back called "The Simulation Theory (TIMELAPSE): When Video Games Become Too Realistic". That video talks a lot about people uploading consciousness, using brain chips to live in gaming worlds, how people could learn to walk again in a digital world before their brain chip re-activates their real world bodily functions. And in my first "Timelapse of Future Technology" video, the ending talks about sending human consciousness as data to other star system, implanted into robotic bodies, which are then replaced by biological bodies grown for the conditions of that specific planet.

[@MichaelWinter-ss6lx]

Grown for the specific planetary conditions? There's a hell of a lot to learn, before we could think about that! But I think it will take us 400 years, before we are able to leave our solar system. The distance-, speed-, and time-scales are just mind-blowing different. Its already an increase, beyond the Moon. But the way to the stars.... 🚀🏴‍☠️🎸
