      Actually there is a measurable difference between gravitational and linear acceleration. In linear acceleration the acceleration is parallel at all positions in the elevator/rocket. However, in gravitational acceleration, the acceleration vectors are not parallel, they all point to the center of the Earth, Moon, Mars

      Newton imagined that he dragged a large cannon up to a very tall mountain:
      Newton imagined that, if the cannon ball were large enough, and the mountain HIGH enough, when he fired the cannon ball, the ball would just go "falling", but never hit the Earth!
      Instead, Newton imagined that the Ball would just continue to circle the Earth.

    Everyone always fails to mention in these artificial gravity videos that the only time a rotating spacestation works is when you are walking along the line of rotation. If you deviate from that line and say try to walk diagonally over to your desk or window you would be fighting forces that would make walking in a straight line almost impossible, not to mention how disorienting it would be. In movie 2001 for example they had addressed that to a small degree by making the footpath in the rotation module quite narrow with few choices for deviation from the plane of rotation.

      the main problem, you either have a large enough station that somewhat mitigates these problem, or the entire structure is so small, that mostly irrelevant. but still, most early small rotating structures will have some strange stuff until we learn how to live and exist in them. similarly how the newer modules are much better in space usage and storage than the early ones on the iss, and the chinese clearly had the benefit of seeing what does not work on their own station.

      I wouldn't imagine it would be much more difficult to acclimatise to a rotating space station than a ship at sea. It takes a few days to get used to it but after that it is usually fine. And it's not like you need everyone to be able to cope. If it is like boats at sea and there are some people that are never able to adapt and suffer from constant sea sickness. Then life as an astronaut probably isn't a good choice for them.
      Actually it should be easier to acclimatise as the forces would be consistent and predictable. Whereas the motions of a boat at sea are chaotic.

      Which is why a large radius to reduce the proportion of Coriolis forces is needed. We have very little empirical basis to determine what the minimum radius should be and Arthur C Clarke made wild assumptions such as assuming lunar gravity would be sufficient for surface gravity and reducing the probability of initial nausea to 50% would be an acceptable reduction in Coriolis forces. Arthur C Clark was very bright but had very little basis for his designs. Until we try spin gravity out in a space habitat to collect some data points, we too will have very little basis for our design decisions. We can expect our first few spin gravity solutions to be insufficient but providing valuable data for future designs.

      I would be surprised if NASA hadn't put rats or mice in a centrifuge set to simulate a fraction of 1 g. This would have likely been done on the ISS. I know they took rats up to measure bone and muscle loss. So the next logical step would be to increase the simulated gravity and chart the gravity versus bone/muscle loss. That would give a basis for extrapolation to expected human gravity requirements. Much easier to put mice in a centrifuge inside the ISS for a few months compared to doing the same thing for humans.

      ​@@i-love-space390Becoming "used to" micro gravity doesn't detract from the harmful effects of micro gravity to our biology. We believe that having some spin gravity would address the harmful effects of micro gravity which we have only been able to partially mitigate with strict exercise and medications. How much spin gravity and to what degree it needs to be similar to Earth's gravity is something for which we have no basis to judge. As an Engineer, I like to bound the problems so as an Engineering student, I asked myself how large does the radius of a centrifuge need to be for the gravity to change at the same rate that it does on Earth, to have the same first derivative, and the calculations showed that it had to be the radius of the Earth. The upper bound to exactly simulate Earth's gravity may be impractical so our spin gravity solutions will always be a compromise and selecting what that compromise should be will be our challenge. The proposals so far such as the spin gravity in Arthur C Clark's 2001 a Space Odyssey have used lunar gravity as a basis on little more than a hope that lunar colonization would not involve too many detriments due to the lower gravity and of course only use the probability of nausea from the Coriolis force has a guideline (typically a 50% of nausea till becoming accustomed to the forces involved). Whether these estimates are reasonable is yet to be seen but to accurately simulate Earth's gravity completely would take a centrifuge with the same radius as Earth's radius. It's likely that early spin gravity projects would be to try and measure the minimum amount of surface gravity and the maximum amount of unsettling Coriolis force can be tolerated when combined with strict exercise and medications and by tolerated, I do not mean becoming "used to" but by not having permanent detrimental effects to our biology (our astronauts do not fully regain their development losses from micro gravity at this time).

    Many words have multiple definitions. This is true here with the word "gravity".
    1) the attractive force between masses.
    2) the sensation produced by acceleration which simulates gravity.
    It isn't Microgravity as many have come to call it because the attraction of the ISS just a few hundred miles higher than someone on Earth is nearly the same. Its the fact that the ISS is falling at the same rate as the curvature of the earth that makes you weightless. Fight inertia and you feel G-force. Falling is weightlessness even if its the few seconds in a fast car over a bump in the road. For the moment you're weightless (even on Earth) because you aren't fighting the pull of gravity or inertia.
    "Microgravity" is a non-scientific term used for less scientific people. Even some astronauts incorrectly use it.
    The 6ft difference between one side of the ISS and the other might require a microsopic diff in orbital speed but the gravity difference of 6ft is next to nothing. What fraction of 4000mi (1-G) to the core is 6 feet?

    • @LG-qz8om
      @LG-qz8om 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      In fact, during the rocket ride into orbit you fight gravity (but more importantly Inertia) right on up until the engines turn off. This acceleration is usually 3-times the pull of gravity on Earth's surface (an acceleration of 22mph increased velocity every second for about 12-1/2min). You feel 3G's all the way up to orbit then the engines turn off and you're just falling again -- that's weightlessness again.
      But every time you change course in space you feel G-forces (fighting Inertia not Gravity).

    • @LG-qz8om
      @LG-qz8om 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Using the term "microgravity" as people use it one could make a fast turn in a car and feel "microgravity" pulling you to the side of you car. Referring to Def2 which is "any change from an Inertial course of motion"

Any idea if this is being researched and if so, what that number might be? If so, that is the G force ships and stations could be built to.

    For 1g at 1rpm the radius would need to be 894.3 meters. Even you were 2 meters tall your head would still be experiencing .998g. That's an imperceptibly small difference. You experience a much much greater change in g forces when you ride in an elevator and most people are perfectly comfortable with that.

    When I was an engineering student, my sister was working on a research project in the biology department that was being prepared for the space shuttle to investigate the development of African frogs in microgravity. I commented that perhaps the first derivative of gravity, how it varies with distance that could be pertinent and hence I asked myself how large a radius would be needed for artificial gravity by "centrifugal forces" to have the same first derivative and the calculations showed that it would be the radius of the Earth itself. Although artificial spin gravity is our best and only option, it will never be a perfect replacement.
    The Challenger disaster postponed my sister's experiment so a similar experiment by another University made it to launch before hers (surprisingly using the same frog species).

  • @jacoblind5390

    I think we are too obsessed with getting artificial gravity to 1g. If we simply went for 2/3g then the station wouldn’t have to rotate as fast and therefore would need to be as large. An exercise regimen should make up for muscle loss in a reduced gravity setting and re acclimating to gravity on earth shouldn’t be as big a deal.

    Now think about this: at the center of the earth the force of gravity is...ZERO! The force of gravity from the earth is maximum at the earth's surface. As you descend into the earth (via a hypothetical elevator) the gravitation will become less. This is because some of the mass of the earth is above you cancelling some of the mass 'below' you . At the center it all cancels. The pressure at that point would be huge, and the temperature is 9000 degrees.

    The coriolis effect is not something extreme and unimagineable, it's just how the centrifuge tries to simulate earths gravity, when you throw something up it will fall down, if the ring is large enought when you throw something up it will fall straight back to where it was thrown, just like on earth.

    I think a 1km space station would be very doable just off of the moon alone. The moon likely has more than enough resources and with the reduced gravity and lack of atmosphere, getting massive prefabbed parts into orbit would be a breeze. With no atmosphere you can just use a sky crane.
    After the moon gets the capability to manufacture ships, we will see sci fi like space ships made there.
