I have a point of contension i cant know for sure but i dont think space x is actually improving eva suits yeah they are slimmer they are also tethered and the gemini eva suit was just as slim
On first glance, it might appear that way. I’m betting if you ask Jim Lovell or Buzz Aldrin what they thought about the Gemini suits, versus what they may be familiar with or are learning about the SpaceX suits, your opinion/contention might change. The cool thing? We all get to find out together when Polaris Dawn launches, executes it’s mission objectives, and then returns. Cheers! Paul Ad astra ad nauseam
@@PaulShanley yeah thats why i said i cant know for sure because i dont have a way of knowing the extent of whats new and what isnt just yet im sure they are more advanced than gemini what i doubted was that they are some revolutienary thing compared to todays suits P.s. "ad nauseam" means "to a sickening degree" are you sure thats what you meant?
@@yakirfrankoveig8094, thank you for your thoughtful reply. As for the Latin question.. yes, that is exactly what I mean. “To the stars, so much that we are sick of it.” If I knew the Latin for “tongue-in-cheek”, I’d probably say that.
@@yakirfrankoveig8094, before reusable rockets, the idea of going to space other than for or exclusively by governments, seemed stuck in science fiction. Back then, the idea that we could some day go to space so much that it becomes commonplace seemed ironic to me. Ad astra per aspera was definitely where we were at post shuttle, pre Falcon 9. Per a lot of aspera it seemed. Thus the tongue in cheek swap out for “ad nauseam”. The explanation you never asked for. You’re welcome. ;-)
I love your videos! Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
I looked up multiple explanations videos about this topic. But by far, you explain this in a very understandable way, thank you!
Aw thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Love the Golden Retriever and the link to St Jude’s! Thank you for starting with the backstory of Polaris.
Good stuff keep up the good search.
Thank you for watching!
@@TheGalacticGal your welcome

@@PaulShanley ok i guess that makes sense
