“Yeah, I vaporate”
Science fiction becoming science fact.
This has gotta be my favorite series from Greedo. Always super interesting
This could be useful in places that have unsanitary water.
Fenix Minerva Or where there’s little to no water like in the Sahara desert.
It's a Peltier dehumidifier. The collection surfaces on those things are notorious breeding grounds for Legionnaires' disease. It's more efficient to filter and sanitize existing water sources if available.
We could easily use those to thrive on mars.
@@grumpyguy112 Mars has 0% humidity
And places suffering from famine.
First time I've heard of ''moisture vaporators'' was in the book dune, where the fremen took water from the air using ''wind traps'', i'm also quite sure arrakis partially inspired tattooine
Oh for sure. Dune created such a fascinating world.
I liked the bit that in a water-desperate world, spitting at somebody's feet is a sign of the highest respect.
Love that series
Dune is my favorite book/series of all time
This could fix a lot of problems. Even more than water shortages. We could get people to live in the middle of deserts where there isn't normally water, which would help overcrowding.
@@CrackedTubeGamer lol nice
@@CrackedTubeGamer You would need to take some things with you though.
Wookiepedia states that one vaporator can produce enough water for 3 humans..
@@sheilaolfieway1885 ok? That would still allow people to live in the desert.
@@js5861 Yes but OWen owned a whole farm which means he could support many people...
It wouldn't surprise me that large-scale vaporators will be modeled after Star Wars ones as close as possible, just because there's so many Star Wars fans out there, from the scientists all the way to the product designers.
Also, it'a a smart touch the vaporators are white as to reflect as much heat as possible to keep the bars cool. It was probably unintentional, but it makes functional sense.
@Bongo Kongo Or Thor Ragnarok, or Black Panther or basically any Iron Man movie. And this just off the top of my head.
@Bongo Kongo ...all of the Avengers movies...Captain America was nothing _but_ politics...
Captain Marvel was relatively apolitical, unless you find the idea of a female flying brick to be a political statement in and of itself. If you do, you probably objected to Pepper rescuing Tony in Iron Man 3 as well.

“But I was gonna go to Tosche Station to pick up some power converters!”
100% true. My HVAC instructer is actually taking a group of students to a village in china this year to install hydropanels. Solar panels power the "moisture farmer" and can produce almost 2 cases of water per day.
Star wars moisture vaporators use solar panels to charge their power cells.
You must be carful drinking evaporated water from HVAC machine or giant dehumidifier. The water will pick up heavy metals bacteria and mold when distilled this way
These are the real questions
I know what works...
CLONE WARS REVIEWS!
"Chilling bars"
-> Vibe sticks
Commentary, reviews, game streaming, parody...AND EDUCATIONAL. As well rounded as a channel can get.
Of course it could work, we already have similar stuff designed, as for one that works well in the desert, unsure, but the technology is there, and can be improved upon.
Thanks greedo, i awlays wondered about this. Cool to see star wars tech become real.
This is a badass video. Another job well done, sir.
1: 57 Yes, it's powered by a large photovoltaic solar panel, which is why there are heavy gauge wires going to the Peltier device under the substrate. This is just a rehash of Solus and Water Seer, which also made outlandish claims about their ability to harvest water using solar power. The MOS increases the condenser's surface area, but I've gone down the rabbit hole for this, and all the links on their website are the same kind of "business networking" rubbish you find for other failed Kickstarters.
The technology in the real world are called air wells and there are several passive designs predating star wars. The oldest is a free stone dome with gaps in it that shades a free stone block pile inside. The structure self shades so the water condenses and stays cold draining to a cistern. This structure is in the Sahara and is at least 2 millennia old. Another design has a pipe under ground filled with gravel. The intake and out let pipes are at different heights air flows is there is wind. Powered fans are an option. Again it has a cistern. A third design has a polymer condensation surface, similar to a dew collector but in a deeply shaded wind trap.
Powered air well the size of fridges are now common appliances in homes in several desert countries. Various armies have trailer mounted units that can deploy to areas where its needed.
But I have to ask. Would a planet that's completely a desert biome. Would there be enough humidity in the air? I mean the moisture has to come from somewheres.
Joe Kerr Well theoretically a planet like Tatooine would be inhospitable for human life anyway because there are no plants to perform photosynthesis and create a breathable atmosphere.
@@patrickfrancis9245 that's a good point.
@@patrickfrancis9245 there are plants (shrubs) in the canyons that R2D2 was shot in
Epic Adrian 3D Were there? Huh, well then perhaps it’s possible however unlikely then for Tatooine to have an atmosphere.
I don't know the lore of it all but my guess would be that they terraform the atmosphere to make sure it has oxygen and hydrogen in it. That'd create breathable air, and it would create the humidity for the vaporators
Why did no one think to pick up water on an water planet and sell it on tatooine?
When George Lucas was in charge of the franchise, he unintentionally created solutions and technological advancements that became the beginning for a new age. These days star wars is nothing more than a simple good to watch movies.
Now i can live in the desert
I would love to see more videos like this one
These need to go to places in Africa & Asia.
Warmer air can hold more water, which is the reason why summers are far more humid than winters and why summers drive more storms. Water vapor is an essential ingredient for thunderstorms. So when you cool warmer air down, it can't hold as much water and so it coagulates or condensates on a surface. Pretty neat idea for the concept of moisture vaporators.
Except places that have thunderstorms don't need water.
It's basically a fancy water pump. 💦
How is this not simply a dehumidifier?
It basically is 😊
VAPE-o-Rate-ORS...I love you HelloGreedo, but Uncle Owen and Threepio both pronounced them VAP-o-Rate-ors. But everything else is spot on.
Thank you for an excellent, interesting and educational video.
I like countries like Algeria, Saudi Arabia, and Lybia should create more moisture farms because #1 they have almost no fresh water and #2 when more babies are born, you need more water, and #3 the most fought over resource in the history of the world is water.
Please let me know if I have made any factual errors.
This was a very informative, interesting video!
I would totally be a Moisture Farmer heck Even Superman is a farmer
Another awesome video.
When is the video on holograms coming out
What I don't understand is why didn't we see crops in A New Hope on Uncle Owen And Aunt Beru's farm?
Their crop was moisture, or water.
@@JohnM-cf3ql ohhh, I was thinking of Han Solo saying "this isn't like dusting crops" or something to Luke in a New Hope. I understand now.
@@bluesteele5786 Great observation! I never gave that line a single thought. What was Han thinking?!!! There wouldnt be crops on moisture farms. You make an excellent point.
@@JohnM-cf3ql I guess maybe he was using exaggerated sarcasm to deride Luke? There are almost definitely plant farmers on other worlds, and if so, Han was probably stereotyping Luke by what they did. Just a theory.
0:20 so you KNOW it can't be George Luacs' Idea, it's gotta be ripped straight from Dune oh yep there we go. Oops
Holy shit, that’s pretty cool
*Thunderf00t disliked this video*
NASA is thinking about using that technology to get water from the martian atmosphere.
Very nice
the problem with the math of that material. what is the mass density of that new material. and how much surface area can you get out of kg of it. if you can cover 10 football fields with one kg. and you base the math using a sample that is only 5 square inches, with a 5 ft solar panel.
I hate to be this guy... but actually
This simply a giant dehumidifier. The technology will never be good enough to compete with tap water or desalination due to the energy requirements to condense water.
Check out Thunderf00t’s video debunking the self filling water bottle. He explains the physics on why the technology would never be used to alleviate drought stricken areas.
We need real working, green powered, and affordable moisture farms in the western half of the United States, Saharan and East Africa, Pakistan and India, and all of desert Australia to get through these accursed droughts!
More like Star Wars Science Fiction. As people have stated, these are not practical. This requires way too much energy to remove 25% of moisture in the air.
Whats the new material called
That's lit, Greedo. Just think. Ten, twenty, or thirty years from now, what other technology from that galaxy far far away, might we be able to make a reality?
Transparent steel we already have transparent aluminium.
Neat.
Maybe one day these will dot the rural landscapes of Tunisia.
Solar power even star wars moisture vaporators use solar. and in the desert you rarley see many clouds so the perfect place for solar.
Disney could literally invest in moister farms in dry barren lands all the while using the star wars brand for recognition and for once in their evil greedy existence actually do something good.
Whatever happened to the Greedo mask you used to wear?
He said in the past that it started to tear and fall apart.
Luke VAPED!!!
do you.... record the audio then play back the audio while wearing your mask? yo give that physical appeal that you're presenting with the mask on?
Not as long as they can not speak Bocce !
Something HG likes from the EU?
thats cooooooooooooooooooooool
😊
Moist.
Hey.
Hey.
⭐ MOISTURE TOWERS should offer
Tap water
Hydrogen gas
Oxigen gas
Electricity = plugs to recharge all vehicles, Utilities.
Bitcoin server generating free Bitcoins.
Interner grid ( SkyLink®™) + server
Comunication Unit ( Display to comuniate )
Supply box with corn bars, first aid kit.
Energy system
Lutec Ltd. Australia 24KW PWR free energy Unit.
Areal vibe harmonizer, Orgone emitter.
Such Towers would be extremely important acting as local society main life support grid to supply farm fields= food, humans, animals, energy for devices and communication.
Astro Mech and Android droids
would be mobile technology HUBS
Moisty
Does anyone in any of the films say 'vapourators'? Am I the only one who was annoyed by him saying that?
Unfortunately no. These technologies don't work. Thunderf00t has debunked several of these attempts before. The main issue is that you just simply cannot circulate enough air through these devices fast enough at a low energy cost.
Yes, but Vaporators in Star Wars can probably get away with the thermodynamic problems with fictional power sources we couldn’t even dream of today
Cool! get you an effeminate droid that understands the binary language of moisture vaporators. And you’re set 😂😂😂😂😂
Greedo are you running out of ideas?
Too bad local politics constantly stifles the proliferation of this tech.
Yeah, that part of the world is pretty fucked right now.
