What Happened on the Moon Before Apollo ?

- The Apollo landings from 1969 to 1972 marked a high point in lunar exploration but Apollo didn’t just rock up on to the moon out of the blue, it took many, many missions by probes and landers over the preceding years to establish if we could send men to the moon and get them back.

It's quite strange to think that even by the late 1950’s ,just over 10 years before Neil Armstrong set foot on the lunar surface, we knew surprising little about the moon other than what we could observe from the earth and the hypotheses we drew from those observations.
We knew that it had no appreciable atmosphere or large bodies of water but we didn’t know what the surface was like and we didn’t what was on the far side, the side which always faces away from earth.
After the launch of Sputnik on Oct 4th 1957, the Soviets made several attempts at getting a probe to the moon. The first 3 launches in September, October and December of 1958 all failed but the fourth one in January 1959 did work but… they missed the moon and Luna-1 became the first spacecraft escape earth’s gravity to enter orbit around the sun.
After another launch failure in June, in September 1959 Luna-2 became the first man-made object to reach the surface of the moon.
These probes are not like the landers we are used to now, these were impactors, which means that they are designed to crash into the moon surface, taking measurements on the way. During their journey to the moon, Luna-2 took measurements approximately once a minute which was transmitted back to earth up until the time of impact.
Luna 2’s instruments helped prove that the moon had no real magnetic field and also confirmed the exitance of the Van Allen belts which had been discovered by the first US Satellite Explorer 1.
It also released a vapour cloud of bright orange sodium gas that expanded up to 400 miles, 650 km across which could be seen by telescopes on earth.
The US were sceptical of the Soviets and didn’t believe that they had reached the moon. That was until Bernard Lovell at the Jodrell Bank Radio telescope in England, using a Doppler effect method, proved that the signals did indeed come from the moon.
Once again, the US had been caught out by the Soviets who used Luna-2 and Sputnik and as propaganda to show the superiority of the Soviet Space program. The closest the US had come to the moon by then was Pioneer 4 which only got within 37,000 miles, 60,000 Km.
Luna-2 also proved that the impactor method worked and this would also be used later by the US ranger probes.
Then in Oct 1959, the Soviets did it again with Luna-3 when it became the first spacecraft to photograph the far side of the moon. Luna-3 was also the first craft to not only use the gravity assist method to swing it around the moon and back to the earth but also to position itself in space using 3 axis control with thrusters, this was essential to control the spin of the craft and to position the camera towards the lunar surface.
The photographic film used to for the images of the moon was high temperature, radiation hardened film which had been captured from American Genetrix balloons which the US used as high altitude surveillance devices, in effect they were the original spies in the sky, before high altitude planes or satellites. They would float over the Soviet Union taking pictures before being intercepted by the USAF once out of soviet airspace.....

What makes this channel so enjoyable is Paul Shillito: the presenter's presence, voice, professionalism and how he delivers the content. No shouting, screaming, getting over excited, swearing and drawing attention to himself unlike so many other Tubers out there. Very enjoyable to watch.
Just a man with a love of space and stylish shirts. 😁
I find all this overwhelming. Especially when I think about the tools and materials they had to work with at the time. It's truly amazing they were able to accomplish what they did. It's one of very few things that makes me proud of us humans.
until you read comments from people that know s*** about human history saying that it was a hoax.. sad
@@alanwatts8239 yeah... like "the earth is flat" "vaccines cause autism" "the planets are holograms"...
@savabeel 77 why though?
@@Fred_the_1996 Because 77 believes in those things. You found your village idiot.
I've figured out why I love this channel. There are other channels that talk about things I'm interested in, but they are invariably presented by, to put it kindly, hipster types, and often sneak in social commentary or other irrelevancies. They are also guilty of brazen use of rough cuts -- a technique calculated to give a video pep while simultaneously skirting the need to do everything in a single, professional take. In a sense, most TH-camrs share many disagreeable qualities with modern documentaries, while I think of Curious Droid as upholding the professional stylings of documentaries from last millennium, which I greatly favor.
Meh. To each his own. While I find this particular information interesting, it leaves much to be desired in terms of presentation. Anything past the ten-minute mark and it might as well be Ben Stein asking; "Bueller? Bueller?"
Say what you will but the rough cuts and quick fire info of the "hipster type" documentaries but least they keep you awake and alert.
You can't keep awake for ten minutes?
mbogucki1 - you are a moron....
Spot on analysis.
mbggocki then you should go fuck yourself
As already mentioned, the Soviet Lunokhod rovers definitely deserved a mention.
Agree
Yes - they were interesting vehicles and very unusual looking.
So hows this supposed to work in zero G hmmm?? 🤔In the inner ear, the balance system consists of three semicircular canals that contain fluid and “sensors” that detect rotational movement of the head. Each of the semicircular canals lies at a different angle and is situated at a right angle to each other. The semicircular canals deal with different movement: up-and-down, side-to-side, and tilting from one side to the other. All contain sensory hair cells that are activated by movement of inner ear fluid (endolymph). As the head moves, hair cells in the semicircular canals send nerve impulses to the brain by way of the acoustic nerve. The nerve impulses are processed in the brain to help us know where we are in space or if we are moving.,.,,,
Lunokhod was a remote controlled rover. The people operating it were on earth - so coping with lunar gravity was not an issue for them.

I think it's awesome that Apollo 12's Pete Conrad and Alan Bean landed close enough to the unmanned Surveyor 3 probe, to walked over to and pull parts off of it for analysis. 1st and only time humans have caught up to a probe sent to another world !!

Oh, Satan is definitely real. And the proof is he's made a tidy little home inside your head.
I grew up when this was all going on. Things were moving so fast, we thought we'd be living on the moon by the 1990's.
Just goes to show what we could do if they gave nasa money
@@ARTDaGAT not to worry, I think private space exploration will soon be cheap enough that we'll get at least a small settlement on the moon, if not mars
Unfortunately evevryone turned into pussys and the country went to hell and all the cool shit America did in its prime went to hell and we gave it all away

Andrew, Thank you I will look into it. Appreciate the heads up.
I knew 47.8 percent
I gave a talk to a group a few month ago on the unmanned exploration of the moon. When compiling the talk, I counted well over 100 missions to the moon outside of Apollo.
Old fart speaking: I reckon you either didn't live through this era, or you weren't interested, if you were breathing air at the time.
Surely you didn't think the Apollo landings were blind, without preliminary reconnasance.
This is so interesting. I've not seen anyone else discussing the lunar missions before Apolo. Keep up the great work.
Started watching you a few weeks ago and I gotta tell you, your shirt game is strong.

I concur with the above mentioned comment..
a powerful look
As always, thanks for the metric units.
Oh thank you.
Peter
Imperial for the win
Ford RS I am sick of non imperial units at least give both
SoarkRoll • only Liberia, Myanmar and usa use that system. not really role models in this world.
In these days of so many tech options and variables, not giving both units is ridiculous.
Hands down my favorite TH-cam channel.
Derek Dufon agree
I hope the Luna2 crash site is found and treated like a heritage site, as the Apollo landing sites and exploring areas are to be.
when it impacted it also released a bunch of metal pennants with ''USSR September 1959'' written on them in Russian, so that would be a nice museum item too
@@as07011 I understand five were made. One is in orbit around the sun, one made it to the moon. One has been lost, and the other two are in Kansas.
Fascinating, this is part of the early moon exploration that is not well known by the general public. Thank you!
Your videos are just so informative, with the CORRECT pictures, and no gimmicks, and around 10 minutes, not too long, not too short. You are one of the very best.
My goodness. This video has to be one of your best, Paul. This ONE video was better than any History or Discovery Channel documentary I've ever seen on this topic. You nailed it better than anyone before you; and you did it in 10 minutes and 36 seconds. Simply magnificent.
My dad worked on the Surveyor program during his time at Hughes Aircraft. There is an engineering model hanging in the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. They also have the camera that was brought back to Earth on display.
You did a good job here. Thanks for all the research.
Your doing an awesome job of educating an entire generation of people about the space programs of the world and I like the way you simply and plainly explain it to us. No politics or hype, just what happened. Maybe this will help change many young minds about what mankind did and didn’t accomplish in the Sixties and Seventies. Thank.
EXCELLENT! Thanks so much for this background info!!! Its amazing how much effort was done before Apollo arrived!
I would also add Luna 17 which deployed Lunochod 1 - the first space remote-controlled rover. Technically speaking, it came after Apollo, and was nowhere near as spectacular, but it's a major milestone nevertheless.
Brilliant. I've been looking for videos of the early stuff! :)
I never knew some of this and really appreciate all of your hard work here! Just the facts and with a bit of drama...
Your videos leave me with no questions. Beautifully put together, they beat the professionally made videos 100x. Thank you very much.
Indeed a great channel! Always prefer the style and content - thx a lot!!
very interesting look at the pre Apollo era. Thanks
For some reason I have a strong interest in these early Luna and Surveyor missions. Since they are often overshadowed by the Apollo landings, I certainly enjoyed this video. Much appriciated.
Your channel deserve more subs. Amazing videos and great presentations.
I need to go to sleep why do you do this 😭
Its only 7:50 pm
jitz bailin what are timezones?
jitz bailin its 3am in South Africa and have been watching these videos since midnight.
Me too ! l should go to sleep but l am watching TH-cam in my bed next to my wife Who is sound asleep... it's 1 am here in Georgia USA
Haha! Exactly!
Wow, I never knew so much happened before Apollo 11 landed on the moon! Thank you once again for a superb video with extraordinairy good commentary. I love your channel!
The most warm sentimental moment in space exploration history was when Pete Conrad said, "Good ole' Surveyor!" as he spotted it minutes after setting foot on the moon on Apollo 12.
I truly enjoy watching this channel. I actually learn something every time. I can't stop watching episodes. Great job.
"The Shoot And Hope Programme" :O)
Another excellent video as usual there CD. Keep up the good work!
Warriorking1963 a.k.a., "Spray and Pray".
All of your videos are great and this is one of the best. Thanks.
I always thumb-up your videos before I even watch them. At this point, I just know your material is always top tier.
These videos really are wonderful. Thank you for posting them!
Excellent video, and well presented. Thank you.
Thanks for making this great channel.
My first grade teacher brought a Moon globe to our class back in 1968-1969. Can't remember if the dark side was featured on it but it may have been if images made from the then very recent Lunar Orbiter program were made available to the manufacturer.
having lived thru all that time i find your coverage mind-expanding and stimulating. good job
Your production is fantastic! I love your videos!
I was always fascinated by lunar missions. Thanks for very informative video.
Fascinated by Hollywood bullshit ? interesting
Funny how you get all triggered and shit just by me having a different/unpopular opinion keep insulting my friend you're just making yourself looking like a fool, and yes people with a brain and eyes can detect real footages from CGI garbage but I'm not gonna get into that you obviously live in a fantasy world where everything is real and nothing is a lie :)
I can show you thousands of proofs that NASA are liars from bubbles in space footages, to NASA employees in the background in front of a green screen, to photographic anomalies such as intersecting shadows which would never happen on the moon which is supposed to be enlightened solely by the Sun, then there's the piece of junk (Lunar module) that they claim they landed with but you're obviously too deep into the idea that humans went on the moon to even consider that the other side is possible
Can I ask a serious question Steven. You claim that there are so many anomalies in the NASA moon films that anyone can spot them. Can you explain to me how the Russians failed to see this when it happened? Think of the propaganda victory they would get if they exposed this as you put it easily detected fraud?
I am not trying to insult you or belittle your opinion. I am simply trying to understand how you have come to your conclusions.
To be honest with you I never thought about that point of view (the Russian one), at first what I'd say is they were in the middle of the cold war I mean (just assumptions here) they probably had better interest at that time than trying to see if the USA moon landing was legit, I'm not saying it's easily detected fraud either you gotta look into it with an open mind obviously if you watch this stuff with the certitude that we made the trip everything that could contradict your opinion will be washed off like it was never there, as for how I came to those conclusions, I ended up randomly one day on a video yes a youtube video I ain't scared of saying it even tho there's probably gonna be 2 3 twats that will say something along the line of ''your proofs is from a youtube video ) anyways basically the video was a compilation of Space agencies making rocket launches and all of them either exploded mid-air or never went straight up they all had a curve they went sideways after a couple of miles Btw if space is a vacuum can anyone explain to me how a rocket can work ? everything that has movements requires a force to push off rockets aren't an exception, so I started digging into that stuff and I saw all the stuff that I mentioned above if you want I can link them and you can debate it for yourself I'm not trying to be the guy that feels superior or anything I'd actually much rather that people like you start questioning what we've been thought and starting to look into it even if you feel like it's bullshit some things might makes sense to you and so on
Oh man I always feel bad if I forget to like these vids. Paul just seems like such a nice guy
Excellent video as usual from Curious Droid. Thanks
BRILLIANT presentation as always. Have you considered a review of the Soviet's Lunokhod and Venera lander programs? If you've already done them my apologies. Let me end with a specific compliment. As a US expat myself, one of my pet peeves has always been the lack of respect for and appreciation of the Soviet space program by the American public and media. I'm so pleased that you give them the credit they so richly deserve.
A request... An episode on Valentina Tereshkova perhaps? Believe me if you put 100 Americans in a room without their phones and ask them who she was, maybe five might know. If you ask them who the first woman in space was, five will say VT, 45 will say Sally Ride, 50 will say Sandra Bullock. (Wait... wasn't it Diana Dors?)
Sorry, my mistake, just found your episode which includes the Lunokhod lander... my mistake...
Seriously you're videos are amazing! Thank you and well done.
Very well done this ! Super informing and inviting videowork !
love your channel Droid, looking forward to future videos!
Luna 2 arrived on the moon in 1959. Think about that. Ten years before the USA the Soviets had got hardware on the moon.
And 14 years AFTER the USA's last "ALLEGED" manned moon landing, a country that beat us in everything space, hands down, still couldn't land a man on the moon. Still, only landed a probe, which returned, but unmanned.
What does that tell You?
@@kevinwest5456
The Soviets didn't beat the US in everything, ding dong. The US has its own long list of space firsts.
Luna 2 crashed onto the moon though. It still became noteworthy because it was the first spacecraft to do so, but it can't be compared with a controlled landing. Americans also sent several impactors long before Apollo, as the video shows
:) In 1959, Luna 2 hit the surface at high speed and photographed. Luna 3 of the same year took pictures of the other side. Until 1970, when the Russians managed to bring samples from the Moon, it was about impacts and failed landings. The exception is 2x successful landing in 1966. Lunochod 1-2 was only in late 1970 - 1973. The American Ranger hit the surface in 1962. The first soft landing in 1966 made Surveyor, the second in 1967. About contacts with the lunar surface: Impact on the surface of the moon belongs to Russia's primacy. In soft landings it was the same with the US. The US has gained absolute supremacy in the struggle for the Moon with the Apollo project, which definitively closed the ideological chapter of technology demonstrations. Russia had a partial superiority in the broadcasting of lunar automata and rover.
@@kevinwest5456 >>> I *KNOW* people like *YOU* have a very thin concept of reality, but out here IN THE REAL WORLD, going to the Moon *COSTS A FUCKING SHITLOAD OF MONEY.*
_SOMEBODY_ has to COME UP with all that money....
Lunokhod 1 and 2 need some love too!
Essentially two radio controlled bathtubs, with the distinguishing honor of being the first remote controlled robots on another world!
Theres another video that includes them th-cam.com/video/kNGS1LFzw-I/w-d-xo.html
I appreciate the effort and devotion for making this video!!!!!
I have been enjoying your videos for a while now. I really like the facts and imfo you give.
Really fascinating. I had no idea all this happened.
Great stuff, well done!
This is a great style of presenting. I appreciate your Videos! Keep up this fantastic work! Subscribed!
This is really well done. I enjoy this channel immensely.
Thank You. Even though I was a space buff as a child there were some of these facts that either were not made public while I was intensively interested or I simply forgot. This was an exciting time in history. I remember the shared sense of accomplishment we all enjoyed when an American effort succeeded. Soviet accomplishments were downplayed in my home town newspapers. I remember hearing blatant lies in English Language Soviet Era Propaganda short wave radio broadcasts coming from Castro's Cuba. They mimicked the format of American news programs and in them I heard stories of "the many" Soviet manned landings on the moon and tales of awards of named cosmonauts on named lunar excursion missions. They were said to be the "successful adventurers triumphantly returned". It was as fiction. There might be people who had short wave receivers who could understand English who still to this day believe the Soviets put boots on the moon first. It's very educational to see this timeline of events displayed in an unbiased format.
Never heard that before, thanks.
Call me an oversensitive nerd, but I got emotional while watching this. 50 years ago, without small computers, 8k cameras, superduper transmition devices, overall with very limited technology, and nothing more than good ol' fashioned competition and incredible drive to reach the unknow people have done such remarkable things.
And with all these technolgies we have today, which would bring the cost down, we are still stuck on Earth and focused on nothing more, than pure economics, as any form of so called ideology is, well, impractical.
I know, I know, all these launches had another reason - to build perfect rocket to deliver nukes, but sending anything to the Moon is NOT something to do in order to get perfect weapon, I think.
Even if this was for propaganda, still - what a beautiful and meaningful way to say "we're the best!".
I hope we we'll live in times, when new, incredible space programmes will be launched.
Well, the Saturn rockets couldn't be used for weapons delivery and already in 1959, USA sent an Atlas ICBM in orbit.
So, the Apollo program had nothing to do with weapons. It was to show the world that USA was second to none. Not even in space.
I hope SpaceX really can send humans around Moon next year...
apollo moon landing was fake.
"overall with very limited technology" cutting-edge tech at the time...
Agreed...it truly is amazing what Americans are capable of when we work collectively towards a common goal.
To think we went from absolutely nothing (space agencies/equipment) to being on the moon in ten years .
That's CRAZY!!
I MEAN think about it...
Someone said (Kennedy) " hey, let's put some of our guys up on the moon" and BOOM in a few years , dudes bouncing around the moon...
Truly fucking amazing

Thanks. :)
nice keep em coming Varys!
I love this channel. Keep up the great work Paul
The details given on the Luna 3 mission (first probe to photograph the far side of the moon) alone make it worth watching this segment.
Then there are other interesting, less well known robotic missions: Luna 9, the first soft landing, and Luna 24 for the soil return experiment.
@@michaeldunne338 I agree, very enjoyable. The focus is mainly on things that happened before Apollo 11 landed, though, so he does not mention the other Soviet sample returns by Luna 16 and 20.
that astronaut falling in slow motion was glorious
Sean Ross was not slow motion just low gravity
Sean Ross He had too many beers.
Illuminati Confirmed you know what I mean lol
low gravity 😆
that's what they WANT you to believe!
actually the moon has higher gravity than earth, because the earth is less dense due to the hollow interior
Another great video!! 👍👌👏
Paul, thanks for yet another great episode!
This is an amazing video, I really enjoyed it.. The Apollo missions were so publicized that it's easy to forget just how much was accomplished prior to that.. by the US, and Russian... Well done Curious Droid, you have a new sub! : )
Man, your videos are amazing!
Greetings from Brazil.
do this but with all the other missions between Luna 15 and Luna 24
Boy do I love this channel. Always such great stuff! Thank you.
S. Myth : When you accuse someone of being a "paid shill", without any kind of factual evidence. That shows how gullible you are, and how much you are ready to build up facts without any evidence, just to support some of your preconceptions. And worse, to manipulate other by that very disinformation.
I just love the fact his tone and presentation isn't jumped up over excited just calm and not an overstimulated cluster truck of science.
And even after all this....people still believe that we never went to the moon.
I can believe they crash landed something into the moon, but I don't believe the astronauts walked on the moon. Big difference
It fake
If we've never been to the moon, then how are their reflectors there that we can bounce lasers off of?
Why is there a lunar orbiter satellite that is taken pictures of every inch of the moon. And it is has also taken pictures of the landing sites where you can clearly see tire tracks and footprints.
@@Ardass486 You might wanna do some research before you make a claim like that.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_Laser_Ranging_experiment
Really makes you appreciate that we just didn't land a man on the moon in 1969. There were years and years of scientific failures and bold experiments beforehand that laid the foundation for the apollo program. Weird how little we know about them
Dan Rustle THIS Video states Pre Apollo & Apollo was only 10 yrs. Now, 50 yrs later NASA can not "put a man on the moon & bring him back safe". Technology is not regressive.
@@howardblasingame7961 You are forgetting many important factors. NASA is chronically underfunded and has been since Apollo. Rocket tech on a massive vehicles such as Saturn V have been non existent since then and most importantly all the people that made the project happen are either dead, or retired, so yes technology IS regressive, we simply haven't got the biggest nation bringing all the brains and resources to one cause and also safety standards have changed considerably. You know even experts expected at least one, if not few Apollo missions ending ... as nobody wanted. Now Trump cutting NASA's budget makes me both sad and angry, but I guess we've got to support irresponsible people, such as single mothers and willingly unemployed and such in stead.
My new favorite channel. Thanks so much.
Another high quality presentation. Thank you!
Chinese Mythology mentioned of Moon Goddess living on the moon named Chang'e with her pet rabbit Yutu (Jade Rabbit). Now when they mentioned those names, people can't say that they are a myth.
What about Lunokhod missions? :(

Its ok, the wires pulled the actornaut right back up.
Right, I forgot... we dont know how to get our guys into low orbit without hitching a ride with the Russians in 2018, but we went to the Moon 40 years ago no problem. 'murica, f*ck yeah!
Lol. We are a bit of a clumsy species but man our curiosity takes us far.
Roland Lee it’s much more than that... do research it isn’t that hard in this day and age
No. Are facts hard for you to comprehend? The Saturn V was killed by Nixon and congress because no one was interested in spending money for further missions, Vietnam was ramping up, and they got sold on the money pit that would become the Space Shuttle program. And there are no wires. Provide evidence. Wait, wait, wait...that's right, there isn't any.
your the best !
Outstanding video, and professionally presented. Many thanks for posting!
These are very interesting videos. I did not know that there were so many failures prior to the successes. Thank you for posting I really enjoyed them!
Crazy flat earth people should study this. Because i don't know how this could be over looked. This shit is legit.
Its easy to deny when you just think everything is fuckin fake lol
@Sinjin Smyth ill give ya a like for your effort. Best ive come across in a while. His name is a dead give away. And his shirts are the perfect distraction....from the faked video. lol.
The problem is sailors have known for 3000 yrs that its not flat but curved. Sail offshore and see a sailboat and its mast. You see the mast for while before you see the hull.
When the idiots say we never went to the moon it frustrates me beyond belief... to deny all the hard work of all of these amazingly intelligent people.... really pisses me off...
Sadly, that's what inbreeding does! B^(
You aren't the only one. What really infuriates me are these NASA bashing websites that call the Lunar Module a piece of sh*t. An intelligent and skillful group of Grumman scientists, engineers and craftspeople dedicated nearly a decade of their lives to make the Apollo Program one of the most profound achievements of humankind, only to be made fun of by a bunch of idiots who've never accomplished anything except eat, breath, defecate and run their mouths. To the Devil with 'em!
I just ignore them. You can't fix stupid.
Bob Dillahunty I typically disagree, but this is an exception
james curtis have u ever actually looked into it?
VERY interesting.
BTW - I really like the background music you used here.
Can you imagine a world without borders and divides and hate for each other .... we could accomplish so so much together
"But they missed the moon" nice,good joob guys.
And That just goes to show how incredibly.Difficult it was.
Curious Squad.. Assemble!
Hello Yes I'm Here
The internet never lies. It's all legit!
Hi there!
the internet scientists say it's legit, so it's legit.
Anyone who likes this great channel will probably also like the channel, "Science and Futurism with Isaac Arthur." I know that sounds like spam, but trust me. It's been going for three years and he puts out videos once a week on Spacecraft Propulsion, Life Extension, Megastructures in Space, and etc.
Really well done as usual I love your videos keep up the good work.
Excellent compilation, very informative and serious.
What a difference.
Time to built a base up there

Thanks for the mertic units
Mertic units are good.
Metric units are better.
Great video. Thanks for uploading
Thank you very much for this high quality report!
A lot of suffering going on in the world, so much we can do better. But still, i got to say, it feels damn great to be alive in this day of age. What we humans have accomplished, and how close we now are to take our first steps on another planet, blows my mind. We are indeed extraordinary creatures, but we need to learn to share and be kind to one another. Just imagine what we can achieve if we all just come together as one, and work towards shared goals, that benefits all of human kind. Humans are both magnificent and horribly primitive at the same time. But i believe, that moving outwards into space, will save us from most guaranteed extinction. Next we can try and solve how to get clean water to all people on earth, which some 800.000.000 people can't get a hold of. Just plain Ridiculous.
Honestly, I think there's less hardship now than there ever has been in history. We're just more aware of other people now than we ever have been before.
It really depends on how you look at things. There are more people on this planet that can't get clean water today than the entire population on earth in the year 1750. 8 million people die every year because they don't have access to clean water, and this is only water. It should be the simplest of things, but yet we haven't solved it. The irony is that we are about to walk on another planet, yet we still haven't figured out this problem yet. Here is just small example. Vänern, a big but rather small lake compared to many others globally, which is located in Sweden, contains so much water, if you remove 10 litres for every human being on earth, the water drops 1cm. Just as an example of how much fresh water we actually have access to on this planet. And this is just about water, imagine deceases, lack of food, lack of medical care etc in third world countries, yes it really depends on how you look at things.
More shocking is the fact that the country about to send people to mars doesn't even have the highest rate of education in the world. They dont even have any effective form of public healthcare. And a substantial percentage of their voters think their country should be run like a dictatorship lol
Science has already knows out how to give everyone clean water. Politics are to blame for that problem.
+GameraTheBrave So hows this supposed to work in zero G hmmm?? 🤔In the inner ear, the balance system consists of three semicircular canals that contain fluid and “sensors” that detect rotational movement of the head. Each of the semicircular canals lies at a different angle and is situated at a right angle to each other. The semicircular canals deal with different movement: up-and-down, side-to-side, and tilting from one side to the other. All contain sensory hair cells that are activated by movement of inner ear fluid (endolymph). As the head moves, hair cells in the semicircular canals send nerve impulses to the brain by way of the acoustic nerve. The nerve impulses are processed in the brain to help us know where we are in space or if we are moving.,.,
and where is lunokhod 1 and 2 ?? you missed a very important chapter of lunar exploration ! otherwise it's great video ;)
he mentioned luna24 from '76 which was 6 years after last appolo and then mentioned the chinese lander 30 years later. so either he should have stopped @ the last apollo, or mention all the post-apollo landers (weren't too many of them). the way how it was presented would suggest it took 6 years to russians to get a sample after the last apollo... ignoring all the lunar exploration done by the russians in the time being - including a FIRST remote controlled rover riding a different world ;)
Another excellent video. Learnt a lot in that one 👍🏻
I really like this channel and I've just subscribed. You're a great narrator and I enjoy the measured rate at which you speak and present information. As you may have guessed, I'm elderly and, as someone else observed in a comment, young hipsters can be a bit difficult to follow.
I see a parallel between our early attempt to explore the Moon and to explore Mars. Think Mariner 4 vs the Curiosity Rover. There's a similar progression from our our first attempts to explore Mars (a few photos that hardly amount to more than a dozen low-res JPGs) to what we know today. If you haven't done so, perhaps you could make a video about our exploration of the red planet over the last 5 decades.
