this is a phenomenon as old as humans ability to communicate. we are simply in an age of such high speed communication that it happens faster than it ever has before.
Stop helping make more holes! :-) By reports, there are no technological operations on that module that require drilling. That means that whoever made the hole was doing it on their own accord, and without any supporting tools or regards to proper process. Just pointed to a random place, drilled, covered. Doesn't look like a honest mistake; more like a sabotage by a disgruntled worker.
I like how he made it to the video, but I think that's quite a big step. Then again, I'm British so it doesn't affect me, he's already proved he's smarter than Trump (because he watches the Manley) and my country voted for Brexit so I feel like this makes my opinion on even a joke about politics invalid. On that basis screw it I've convinced myself, Pierce for President! Maybe just of the Scott Manley Fan Club, a.k.a. the Man Club...actually no that's both sexist and clearly a euphemism.

SISYPHUS VASILIAS "Russiagate" led to over 30 indictments, multiple convictions, millions of dollars in seized assets, and found multiple counts of obstruction against the president and his administration. It's all in the Mueller report. You can find it for free and read it.
@@Studio23Media Russiagate produced ZERO convictions for wrong doing by the Russian Gov or people. Yet without convictions or evidence it has been used as a base for illegitimate propaganda to spread Racist and Xenophobic discrimination and economic terrorism against millions of innocent civilians. The ONLY court ruling was AGAINST the Muller Investigation DOJ, in favour of the IRA. The US Court ruled the Indictments in the Mueller Report dropped for lack of any evidence. YES American politicians are corrupt. Who needed a multi-year investigation to find that out! But Russiagate was a 100% complete bust for finding evidence of "Election interference" by the Russian Gov. Russiagate was nothing but a Xenophobic, Racist, domestic US media/political scapegoating and sabotage. That has put thousands of innocent civilians in economic jeopardy and unemployment. USA is a corrupt, despotic, tyranny and is YET AGAIN embracing full throated racism and ethnic hatred across the entire political spectrum of the country. Racism is truly the most distinct and consistent character of the people and nation of USA.
Lol, with the kind of nutty stuff that goes on at the cosmodrom it was probably an accident. I mean, they did have a Soyuz fail because someone purposefully installed three sensors backwards.
I read on the internet that Serena Auñón-Chancellor drilled that hole, threw her tools into the abyss of space and then shit all over the walls. Is that what you heard?
i am not subscribed to cody. i think he is a cool dude who's living the dream but i am not generally interested in the day-to-day type of content he does.
The Whipple shield works exactly like spaced armour on tanks! In the case of a kinetic penetrator (AP shell), the spacing can help slightly by causing the shell to tumble. In the case of a shaped charge (HEAT shell), the spacing acts to pre-ignite the charge so that its focal point misses the main armour section.
You mean deck armour on ships? Multi layer armour predates the tank... shame about the improvements to shell timings that made it worse than useless, but there you go.
Mike Mullane once told a story about a payload specialist who became overly fixated on the Shuttles main hatch during a mission. The Shuttle Commander had to put some extra secure restraints on the hatch's latching mechanism and had to ban the crew member from going near the hatch. That person never flew again. So, people can get weird in space despite the screening process of astronauts.
That answered the one thing that I couldn't figure out, the origin of the picture that many assumed to be a picture of the hole. Thanks for the information!
"i don't think there are many cases..." Wasn't there a case of a crazy astronaut wearing nappies and traveling across the country in an attempt to steal the heart of her already married lover? I'd have thought any high stress job can cause a psychological break.
Astronaut Lisa Nowak On February 5, 2007, she was arrested in Orlando, Florida, and subsequently charged with the attempted kidnapping of U.S. Air Force Captain Colleen Shipman, who was romantically involved with astronaut William Oefelein. Nowak was released on bail, and initially pleaded not guilty to the charges, which included attempted kidnapping, burglary with assault, and battery. Her assignment to the space agency as an astronaut was terminated by NASA effective March 8, 2007. On November 10, 2009, Nowak agreed to a plea deal with prosecutors and pleaded guilty to charges of felony burglary of a car and misdemeanor battery. A lot of astronauts are Navy officers, remember just recently how a ton got busted for accepting bribes in the forms of prostitutes and cash by Fat Leonard in return for contracts.
The astronaut in question was "romantically involved" with a male astronaut while still married. The male astronaut in the case was involved with another woman who later became his wife. Both astronauts were dismissed from NASA as a result of the entire mess.
@@jan.tichavsky very true. Given the high stress job I'm surprised we don't hear of more but I suppose both the scarcity of the job and any failures get weeded out in the application process mostly. An astronaut applicant is not an astronaut ;) makes for less of a news story.
No. They used typical union tactics, as I recall. Don't do anything you're asked to. But I mean, it makes sense. They were being asked to work nonstop with no downtime whatsoever. Anyone can tell you that tends to drive most people insane sooner or later.
+matchesburn While I agree that there is a difference, I doubt that anyone expected to die from a small hole. At worst (or best for the perpetrator) they would not have been able to find the leak (which was hidden behind a removable module, as I understand) in time, and would have had to cancel all of the missions in progress and evacuate the ISS. Try not to get too dramatic with the dying in space thing--no one was ever in any danger of dying here (with just the hole that was drilled, anyway).
The issue is often referred to as a mutiny as the Astronauts simply shut off the receiver and took a nap. Mission control was changing shifts every 8 hours and the crew on the ground was well rested but was unaware that there was no rest in the previous shift, so they wanted to get busy and work more. There was a bit of a communication issue and the men suffering finally said enough is enough. During the mission stand down this was brought to everyone's attention and addressed that there will be rest time mandated in the schedule, if the astronaut didn't rest when Mission Control did, then it's on them. There has never been a similar incident that I could dig up.
@@scottmanleyThe allegations are strengthened by actual criminal charges raised by Russia against her which includes demand to US NASA to release their camera records of their module side on the day of the incident which they refused to give.
1:25 "Astronauts are heavily screened." First thing that popped into my head was when Lisa Nowak went totally bonkers, armed herself with pepper spray and a knife, donned a pair of diapers and drove 900 miles to Orlando to kidnap her crush's girlfriend.
@@Mgl1206 I think he just pointed out that it's weird that the spherical nature of earth has to be pointed out, in these times of bogus denying practices.
@@mikefriedman5635 Oh get off it flattard. You want people to look at so called "evidence" that can be disproven easily with mere thought experiments? How do you know they haven't made honest evaluations? They've looked, rolled their eyes, and laughed, swearing up and down that they've seen all this before. Again you have nothing that even the most basic scientific principles can't explain away. A person can't even set a common baseline of understanding with you 'tards and build from it. You know? 1+1=2 and 2+2=4 but 2+4=6? O no! We now have to circle back around and figure out what 1+1 is again. Pathetic trolls that you, your aliases, and whatever cult members you slap asses with, truly are.
People seriously questioned whether a hole to vacuum could be plugged with a finger? I've plugged holes down to 0.01 atmosphere or so from vacuum pumps. Occasionally the holes were bigger than 2 mm, too. If you do it too long you can give yourself a serious hickie but that's about it.
A lot of people, myself included, know just enough about physics to confuse ourselves. The less you know, the more you have to generalize. So they know that the atmosphere wants to go through that hole, and they know that would exert pressure on the thing covering the hole. But they don't know any specifics about the forces at play, and they don't have the personal experience to make a good estimate. In fact, a lot of people would think the vacuum exerts a sucking force on the air. Because that's their day to day experience with vacuums, they seem to suck things to them. It actually takes a second of thinking and a bit of fluid dynamics to know that there is no 'suck' as such, but rather the atmosphere pushing things instead. And then it takes even more fluid dynamics and ISS lore to know that it's pressurized to 1atm and that 1atm won't exert much of a force on the finger covering the hole. So you have people with little to no idea about the atmosphere of the ISS, and these same people think that vacuums exert a sucking force. So it becomes reasonable to think that space, a very empty vacuum, would have a strong suck to it.
People have seen Alien: Resurrection and think that a hole the size of a bullet will spaghettify anything that comes near it. It's strange when you think about it - the difference between inside and outside a spaceship is ONE atmosphere. There's about zero on the outside, and one on the inside. There's not much going on between the two. In a standard propane tank, the pressure inside the tank is 8 atmospheres - as in, eight times the pressure of the outside (where we live). Had the difference been that great, plugging a small hole with tape would've been much harder - but it's not. People need to realize that FILMS is NOT the same as REALITY.
Most people never experience pressures much higher than 1atm, so they don't understand that the difference between 1atm and 0atm is not a big difference -- as long as it's only a small area of your skin that's exposed, anyway.
We live in a post-truth society. Sad but true. And it's probably one of the more dangerous times in history for this to be true. The truth game has devolved into a tragic game of telephone. Was humanity really ready for the Internet?
The U.S. as structured is a republic that is a representative democracy. It is both a Democracy and a Republic. If you want to say it is a republic and not a democracy in function because, really, only oligarchs have a say and not the general populous, well, that's more an indictment on the corruption of government rather than the intent of the current structure. The issue specifically with truth and post truth is that we've always lived in a world where correct information was scarce for the majority of people. It is just that now everyone has a community they can shield themselves in. There was science deniers before there was an internet. It should be telling that the same lawyers hired to denying anthropogenic climate change had worked on denying the link between smoking and cancer.
It's not really journalists' fault, it's our fault. We reward journalists who report stories FIRST rather than waiting until the 6pm news, so journalists are incentivized to report as soon as possible rather than waiting until they can be sure they actually know something worth reporting.
You need to think what "post truth" means. We lived in "pre truth" before. The Internet ended the pre truth era, and now we're in post truth. That's a good thing. Our media has always been horrible. Find those weapons of mass destruction in Iraq yet? Find out who was responsible for that "mistake" in intelligence yet? Now it's just more obvious when a lie is told. Nothing has changed with our corporate media propaganda, all that's changed, is that it's easy for you to see people point out their errors in their propaganda. For example, our corporate media was reporting that a 7 year old kid named Bana al-Abed was sending tweets from Aleppo after that city has been basically demolished. She claimed that her family was having a hard time finding food, even water at times. Yet the Internet still worked, and they still had electricity, and she happened to speak in English as well, and during this time, her family took the time to be sending messages through twitter. Does this make sense to you? It does when you realize it was a propaganda campaign by the United States and the UK though. 17 years ago, such a propaganda campaign would have largely been unnoticed, today, plenty of people will point it out, and dinosaurs will still believe their corporate propaganda. Don't forget the Gulf of Tonkin Incident, that was a false flag. Have you ever heard about it? That was the pretext to start the Vietnam War. Takes a long tie to deprogram a society when the government itself is the programmer.
The fact that the hole was so poorly drilled seems like it would lend credence to it being done purposely. You would think if there was a legitimate operation where you were supposed to drill into a spacecraft, getting the drill in exactly the right position would be critical. Which means you don't use a handheld drill and let it skate around on the surface until it finds something to bite into. It even looks like the drill chuck was rubbing on the structural member to the right.
Klobi, That's most likely what happened. No grand conspiracy here -- shoddy workmanship or someone who showed up to work drunk and drilled the hole wrong and tried to hide his work. I've heard stories of some really boneheaded things people did in factories that KILLED servicemen... Things like installing bolts the WRONG WAY which locked up controls in fighter jets and caused pilots to crash. There was also the reality in the early days of jet bombers the USAF was forced to accept jet engines from the aerospace division of a certain car manufacturer that were inferior quality. Since that jet bomber was run with 8 engines, they always made sure AT LEAST half the engines came from a more reliable manufacturer! That's the type of crap bureaucracy will force on the services. They'll also keep drunks and morons on the assembly line because of ya know, union rules! It happens in the US, I'm positive it happens in Russia (and probably China), too. Of course, the usual conspiracy nuts will say, "Aliens are trying to bring down the ISS!" or "Somebody on ISS went stir-crazy and wants to go home, NOW!" It's all ridiculous BS. Russia does have a serious number of alcoholics and the people are depressed to hell. It's NOT a huge hole -- 2mm! The ISS module was leaking very, very slowly. Those pictures we've seen were most likely doctored and not even pictures of the actual hole. This is just a slow news cycle and reporters are making up crap stir people up and make money for their networks and newspapers --- What else is new?
@@AvengerII Jup, something like that. My best guess: someone showing up with a hangover called "Sir Hangover, if you please", thinking "iss just a few screws into the support beam and I´m outta here, what can possibly go wroooopsie, pass me the tape, please..." (in a factory in my hometown, Central Europe, some bloke actually passed out on a conveyor belt during nightshift. Luckily, they pulled him off right before the 100t press. So this kinda crap happens. Everywhere.) BUT, there seems to be a serious problem with assembly quality, nonetheless. Remember the Proton rocket with the sensors being violently forced into their sockets upside down? And now the next Sojuz failed. Pretty unacceptable ratio in spaceflight. OR someone is really desperately trying to take over the market in space vehicles. Or any combination of these.
Hey Scott, how long has the station been leaking? The hole looks like a typical hole made by a rookie sheet metal mechanic trying to remove a rivet and failing admirably! There are three other drill starts on that stringer as evidenced by the marred paint. There’s a whole bunch of stuff going on at that location, what gives and what is the access? Do we normally have drill wielding ‘stronauts running about outside poking holes in aerospace type structures? Something curious about the hole too, there is no erupted surface facing us, no paint disturbed at the hole interface. And the damn hole isn’t round! Rookies, never give ‘em a space drill with a polonium 238 space modulator attached!
Just visited here with my son and daughter-in-law last month about a week after it opened. Recognized it immediately. Amazing futuristic open park space in downtown San Francisco. Great backdrop. Thanks for the info on the ISS hole.
It's not really journalists' fault, it's our fault. We reward journalists who report stories FIRST rather than waiting until the 6pm news, so journalists are incentivized to report as soon as possible rather than waiting until they can be sure they actually know something worth reporting.
Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, has threatened to press charges against a NASA astronaut who it claims drilled a two millimeter hole in a Soyuz MS-09 vehicle that was docked with the International Space Station (ISS) in 2018. The agency recently completed its investigation into what it deems was a sabotage, citing Serena Auñón-Chancellor, a crew member of the ISS at the time of the incident, as the culprit. The allegations have been handed over to Russian law enforcement, allowing Roscosmos to announce the possibility of criminal charges. The Izvestia newspaper reported on Friday, citing sources, that Auñón-Chancellor made the hole with the hopes of return home early, TASS reports. Sources told the Russian news outlet that Auñón-Chancellor wanted to leave the orbiting laboratory due to a blood clot or fight wither her boyfriend onboard the ISS. However, Auñón-Chancellor was married to Jeff Chancellor when she was in space - and the two are still married to this day - so it is unclear who the 'boyfriend' was as stated by Russian insiders.
An interesting aspect of that shield is the anti-RPG system developed by Brits: A charged pair of grids that electrically inducts just enough additional energy to push the copper jet of the shaped charge into a non-hydraulic plasma. All it has to do is make it into a partial foam of plasma and the jet is diffused.
The hole appears amateurishly drilled, is about 20-30mm from where the hole started aligning with someone unfamiliar with tools, like a doctor and that it could not have been for use by ground team as how could you want a hole in roughly a 50mm space ? This isn't a tractor. Oddly, the hole's size (2mm) is just large enough to be concerning but slow in effect, providing evacuation time. With no clear answers from NASA and the fact that she hasn't flown since, it's puzzling why they'd leave such speculation hanging. Isn't it odd? It is coincidence after coincidence and NASA have done no investigation Russia have gone quite like NASA has settled with them ?
Daily Mail published out the story. Refusal to take polygraph tests and US drilling instruments for metal sampling, combined with the motive are pretty self-explanatory. I call this case closed.
@@kjarl and by the way, it also shows that your system is a joke. Depending where one hosts the court, any decision would be lawful. Isn't this hilarious? The law is non existent.
regarding the unpainted material underneath: that hole appears to have been punched rather than drilled due to the existence of the radius on the surface edge facing the camera. Was there a rivet in this hole that was removed? That would explain the drill walking all over the place too. At any rate, the hole int he unpainted material appears to be part of the actual manufacturing process as I wouldn't think astronauts have equipment onboard to punch holes in metals like that. I think we're going to end up finding out that this was just sloppy work done on the ground long ago.
Would be very interested in your take on how to manage impact to a theoretical space elevator. Both unmanaged debris, as well as orbiting satellites (controlled and can manoeuvre). Is it realistic to think that in the timeframe we can put up an elevator (200 years? 1000?) that the issues of impact could be managed?
Missed a great opportunity there to talk about the most interesting building in that shot, 181 Fremont. The diagonal lines are part of the structure, that band in the middle is where the building services are located (as opposed to say, the roof) and the entire building is base isolated. Salesforce tower on the other hand is a fairly pedestrian design, just bigger (which as we all know is not necessarily better)
Let's also not forget his collab with Doormonster (back the White Lightning HQ, I think. Been some time since I watched it.) which was absolutely great.
Remember this incident, and still find it a bit odd, like, if you were an astronaut or cosmonaut and wanted to go home, if you chose to drill a hole with multiple failed attempts visible, just the planning alone would put you in a very high risk of getting caught under later investigations, as an astronaut you would be very aware of getting caught, a simple investigation should have been able to determine what astronaut and cosmonaut did what at any given time in relation to when the leak started to appear, which is odd because the Russians didn't do such investigation when they could have, and where did the drill go? Feels like the Russians is hiding something.
you have been indoctrinated to be naturally prejudice towards russians. would you like to admit you were wrong. hears reality. the west lies FAR FAR more then Russia
Scott! I am so glad you made this video on the roof top park on the transit center. I was inspired to go experience that wonderful park for myself. I was fortunate enough to visit it before it was abruptly closed, just SIX WEEKS after opening! The terminal complex briefly served as a bus station during that time. The structural defects have kept the multi billion dollar station closed ever since. In addition to bus service, the terminal is intended to have regular commuter train rail service, and eventually high speed rail. It appears that the regular commuter rail service may be available for in time for your eventual grandchildren to use, and high speed rail might come along in time for your great grandchildren. Makes me think: if we can go to the moon, why can't we.........?
Scott can you please do a video on LOP-G and specifically the choice to do a HALO orbit? This seems to really reduce the utility of the station and I would like to know your thoughts on this. Thanks.

Plot twist... they can't use Gorilla glue tactically because it is actually a black hole in itself. Not even light can un-stick from it.
The drill won't skip around if you use a damn center punch.
Maybe they didnt have one...
Stop helping make more holes! :-)
By reports, there are no technological operations on that module that require drilling. That means that whoever made the hole was doing it on their own accord, and without any supporting tools or regards to proper process. Just pointed to a random place, drilled, covered. Doesn't look like a honest mistake; more like a sabotage by a disgruntled worker.
Or the worker was simply drunk out of their mind.

Then again, I'm British so it doesn't affect me, he's already proved he's smarter than Trump (because he watches the Manley) and my country voted for Brexit so I feel like this makes my opinion on even a joke about politics invalid.

@@Studio23Media Russiagate produced ZERO convictions for wrong doing by the Russian Gov or people.
Yet without convictions or evidence it has been used as a base for illegitimate propaganda to spread Racist and Xenophobic discrimination and economic terrorism against millions of innocent civilians.
The ONLY court ruling was AGAINST the Muller Investigation DOJ, in favour of the IRA. The US Court ruled the Indictments in the Mueller Report dropped for lack of any evidence.
YES American politicians are corrupt. Who needed a multi-year investigation to find that out! But Russiagate was a 100% complete bust for finding evidence of "Election interference" by the Russian Gov.
Russiagate was nothing but a Xenophobic, Racist, domestic US media/political scapegoating and sabotage. That has put thousands of innocent civilians in economic jeopardy and unemployment.

Serena Auñón-Chancellor that was the problem
The Whipple shield works exactly like spaced armour on tanks!
In the case of a kinetic penetrator (AP shell), the spacing can help slightly by causing the shell to tumble.
In the case of a shaped charge (HEAT shell), the spacing acts to pre-ignite the charge so that its focal point misses the main armour section.
You mean deck armour on ships? Multi layer armour predates the tank... shame about the improvements to shell timings that made it worse than useless, but there you go.
Thank you for being unbiased and truthful, Scott.
I appreciate you doing research before making this video and not regurgitating fallacies.
Common people say tata bye bye.
*Scott Manley* says *_Fly safe_*.
Ya think they took off to space without checking the spaceship for holes first?
This aged poorly. The hole was made by Serena Maria Auñón-Chancellor.
Mike Mullane once told a story about a payload specialist who became overly fixated on the Shuttles main hatch during a mission. The Shuttle Commander had to put some extra secure restraints on the hatch's latching mechanism and had to ban the crew member from going near the hatch. That person never flew again. So, people can get weird in space despite the screening process of astronauts.
That answered the one thing that I couldn't figure out, the origin of the picture that many assumed to be a picture of the hole. Thanks for the information!

Astronaut Lisa Nowak
On February 5, 2007, she was arrested in Orlando, Florida, and subsequently charged with the attempted kidnapping of U.S. Air Force Captain Colleen Shipman, who was romantically involved with astronaut William Oefelein. Nowak was released on bail, and initially pleaded not guilty to the charges, which included attempted kidnapping, burglary with assault, and battery. Her assignment to the space agency as an astronaut was terminated by NASA effective March 8, 2007. On November 10, 2009, Nowak agreed to a plea deal with prosecutors and pleaded guilty to charges of felony burglary of a car and misdemeanor battery.
A lot of astronauts are Navy officers, remember just recently how a ton got busted for accepting bribes in the forms of prostitutes and cash by Fat Leonard in return for contracts.
The astronaut in question was "romantically involved" with a male astronaut while still married. The male astronaut in the case was involved with another woman who later became his wife.
Both astronauts were dismissed from NASA as a result of the entire mess.
Yeah, you can filter out only so much, it will never be 100%. But given how few cases are out there they still select them quite well.
@@jan.tichavsky very true. Given the high stress job I'm surprised we don't hear of more but I suppose both the scarcity of the job and any failures get weeded out in the application process mostly. An astronaut applicant is not an astronaut ;) makes for less of a news story.

Now you see why there aren't many crazy astronauts.

Anyone can tell you that tends to drive most people insane sooner or later.
I thought it was "mutiny in space: NASA sends smut to space"?
+matchesburn While I agree that there is a difference, I doubt that anyone expected to die from a small hole. At worst (or best for the perpetrator) they would not have been able to find the leak (which was hidden behind a removable module, as I understand) in time, and would have had to cancel all of the missions in progress and evacuate the ISS. Try not to get too dramatic with the dying in space thing--no one was ever in any danger of dying here (with just the hole that was drilled, anyway).
The issue is often referred to as a mutiny as the Astronauts simply shut off the receiver and took a nap. Mission control was changing shifts every 8 hours and the crew on the ground was well rested but was unaware that there was no rest in the previous shift, so they wanted to get busy and work more. There was a bit of a communication issue and the men suffering finally said enough is enough. During the mission stand down this was brought to everyone's attention and addressed that there will be rest time mandated in the schedule, if the astronaut didn't rest when Mission Control did, then it's on them. There has never been a similar incident that I could dig up.
If the hole was made on the ground, wouldn't the capsule have failed a leak check before launching?
No, because the hole was filled, but then that botched repair failed after they reached the ISS
it was the female onboard.

People seriously questioned whether a hole to vacuum could be plugged with a finger? I've plugged holes down to 0.01 atmosphere or so from vacuum pumps. Occasionally the holes were bigger than 2 mm, too. If you do it too long you can give yourself a serious hickie but that's about it.
A lot of people, myself included, know just enough about physics to confuse ourselves.
The less you know, the more you have to generalize.
So they know that the atmosphere wants to go through that hole, and they know that would exert pressure on the thing covering the hole. But they don't know any specifics about the forces at play, and they don't have the personal experience to make a good estimate. In fact, a lot of people would think the vacuum exerts a sucking force on the air. Because that's their day to day experience with vacuums, they seem to suck things to them. It actually takes a second of thinking and a bit of fluid dynamics to know that there is no 'suck' as such, but rather the atmosphere pushing things instead.
And then it takes even more fluid dynamics and ISS lore to know that it's pressurized to 1atm and that 1atm won't exert much of a force on the finger covering the hole.
So you have people with little to no idea about the atmosphere of the ISS, and these same people think that vacuums exert a sucking force. So it becomes reasonable to think that space, a very empty vacuum, would have a strong suck to it.
People have seen Alien: Resurrection and think that a hole the size of a bullet will spaghettify anything that comes near it. It's strange when you think about it - the difference between inside and outside a spaceship is ONE atmosphere. There's about zero on the outside, and one on the inside. There's not much going on between the two. In a standard propane tank, the pressure inside the tank is 8 atmospheres - as in, eight times the pressure of the outside (where we live). Had the difference been that great, plugging a small hole with tape would've been much harder - but it's not. People need to realize that FILMS is NOT the same as REALITY.
@random Like NASA films?
Haha, please, man...
Most people never experience pressures much higher than 1atm, so they don't understand that the difference between 1atm and 0atm is not a big difference -- as long as it's only a small area of your skin that's exposed, anyway.
We live in a post-truth society. Sad but true. And it's probably one of the more dangerous times in history for this to be true. The truth game has devolved into a tragic game of telephone. Was humanity really ready for the Internet?
MCVastDifference as they say, the best argument against democracy is a 5 minute conversation with the average person.
That's why you have a republic .. Right ..?
The U.S. as structured is a republic that is a representative democracy. It is both a Democracy and a Republic. If you want to say it is a republic and not a democracy in function because, really, only oligarchs have a say and not the general populous, well, that's more an indictment on the corruption of government rather than the intent of the current structure.
The issue specifically with truth and post truth is that we've always lived in a world where correct information was scarce for the majority of people. It is just that now everyone has a community they can shield themselves in. There was science deniers before there was an internet. It should be telling that the same lawyers hired to denying anthropogenic climate change had worked on denying the link between smoking and cancer.
It's not really journalists' fault, it's our fault. We reward journalists who report stories FIRST rather than waiting until the 6pm news, so journalists are incentivized to report as soon as possible rather than waiting until they can be sure they actually know something worth reporting.
You need to think what "post truth" means. We lived in "pre truth" before. The Internet ended the pre truth era, and now we're in post truth. That's a good thing.
Our media has always been horrible. Find those weapons of mass destruction in Iraq yet? Find out who was responsible for that "mistake" in intelligence yet? Now it's just more obvious when a lie is told. Nothing has changed with our corporate media propaganda, all that's changed, is that it's easy for you to see people point out their errors in their propaganda.
For example, our corporate media was reporting that a 7 year old kid named Bana al-Abed was sending tweets from Aleppo after that city has been basically demolished. She claimed that her family was having a hard time finding food, even water at times. Yet the Internet still worked, and they still had electricity, and she happened to speak in English as well, and during this time, her family took the time to be sending messages through twitter. Does this make sense to you? It does when you realize it was a propaganda campaign by the United States and the UK though.
17 years ago, such a propaganda campaign would have largely been unnoticed, today, plenty of people will point it out, and dinosaurs will still believe their corporate propaganda.
Don't forget the Gulf of Tonkin Incident, that was a false flag. Have you ever heard about it? That was the pretext to start the Vietnam War.

The fact that the hole was so poorly drilled seems like it would lend credence to it being done purposely. You would think if there was a legitimate operation where you were supposed to drill into a spacecraft, getting the drill in exactly the right position would be critical. Which means you don't use a handheld drill and let it skate around on the surface until it finds something to bite into. It even looks like the drill chuck was rubbing on the structural member to the right.
Remember, it was Russian module. Security for drilling holes much more relaxed after bottle of Vodka. No problem! Just take a few attempts.
Klobi,
That's most likely what happened.
No grand conspiracy here -- shoddy workmanship or someone who showed up to work drunk and drilled the hole wrong and tried to hide his work. I've heard stories of some really boneheaded things people did in factories that KILLED servicemen... Things like installing bolts the WRONG WAY which locked up controls in fighter jets and caused pilots to crash. There was also the reality in the early days of jet bombers the USAF was forced to accept jet engines from the aerospace division of a certain car manufacturer that were inferior quality. Since that jet bomber was run with 8 engines, they always made sure AT LEAST half the engines came from a more reliable manufacturer!
That's the type of crap bureaucracy will force on the services.
They'll also keep drunks and morons on the assembly line because of ya know, union rules! It happens in the US, I'm positive it happens in Russia (and probably China), too.
Of course, the usual conspiracy nuts will say, "Aliens are trying to bring down the ISS!" or "Somebody on ISS went stir-crazy and wants to go home, NOW!"
It's all ridiculous BS.
Russia does have a serious number of alcoholics and the people are depressed to hell.
It's NOT a huge hole -- 2mm! The ISS module was leaking very, very slowly.
Those pictures we've seen were most likely doctored and not even pictures of the actual hole.

(in a factory in my hometown, Central Europe, some bloke actually passed out on a conveyor belt during nightshift. Luckily, they pulled him off right before the 100t press. So this kinda crap happens. Everywhere.)
BUT, there seems to be a serious problem with assembly quality, nonetheless. Remember the Proton rocket with the sensors being violently forced into their sockets upside down? And now the next Sojuz failed. Pretty unacceptable ratio in spaceflight.
OR someone is really desperately trying to take over the market in space vehicles. Or any combination of these.
Hey Scott, how long has the station been leaking? The hole looks like a typical hole made by a rookie sheet metal mechanic trying to remove a rivet and failing admirably! There are three other drill starts on that stringer as evidenced by the marred paint. There’s a whole bunch of stuff going on at that location, what gives and what is the access? Do we normally have drill wielding ‘stronauts running about outside poking holes in aerospace type structures? Something curious about the hole too, there is no erupted surface facing us, no paint disturbed at the hole interface. And the damn hole isn’t round! Rookies, never give ‘em a space drill with a polonium 238 space modulator attached!

"journalism" strikes again
It's not really journalists' fault, it's our fault. We reward journalists who report stories FIRST rather than waiting until the 6pm news, so journalists are incentivized to report as soon as possible rather than waiting until they can be sure they actually know something worth reporting.
Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, has threatened to press charges against a NASA astronaut who it claims drilled a two millimeter hole in a Soyuz MS-09 vehicle that was docked with the International Space Station (ISS) in 2018.
The agency recently completed its investigation into what it deems was a sabotage, citing Serena Auñón-Chancellor, a crew member of the ISS at the time of the incident, as the culprit.
The allegations have been handed over to Russian law enforcement, allowing Roscosmos to announce the possibility of criminal charges.
The Izvestia newspaper reported on Friday, citing sources, that Auñón-Chancellor made the hole with the hopes of return home early, TASS reports.
Sources told the Russian news outlet that Auñón-Chancellor wanted to leave the orbiting laboratory due to a blood clot or fight wither her boyfriend onboard the ISS.
However, Auñón-Chancellor was married to Jeff Chancellor when she was in space - and the two are still married to this day - so it is unclear who the 'boyfriend' was as stated by Russian insiders.
I was slightly bored by the headline then delightfully impressed by the nerdiness of this video. Thanks Scott.
An interesting aspect of that shield is the anti-RPG system developed by Brits: A charged pair of grids that electrically inducts just enough additional energy to push the copper jet of the shaped charge into a non-hydraulic plasma. All it has to do is make it into a partial foam of plasma and the jet is diffused.
A guy named pierce got a lucky moment in a video talking about a hole in the ISS...cuz pierce...you know...hole
Ismael hmmm... what a coincidence 🤔

Delighted to see there’s at least one logical person left on the planet. Nicely done, sir.
Just happened to see this. Ive been trying to catch up on all your videos. Did anyone question Howard Wolowit on the hole yet lol?
Moral of the story: Don't drink and drill.
The hole appears amateurishly drilled, is about 20-30mm from where the hole started aligning with someone unfamiliar with tools, like a doctor and that it could not have been for use by ground team as how could you want a hole in roughly a 50mm space ? This isn't a tractor. Oddly, the hole's size (2mm) is just large enough to be concerning but slow in effect, providing evacuation time. With no clear answers from NASA and the fact that she hasn't flown since, it's puzzling why they'd leave such speculation hanging. Isn't it odd? It is coincidence after coincidence and NASA have done no investigation Russia have gone quite like NASA has settled with them ?
The Russians maintain they want US side camera footages around the time incident happen as was their criminal case charge against the woman herself.
Daily Mail published out the story. Refusal to take polygraph tests and US drilling instruments for metal sampling, combined with the motive are pretty self-explanatory. I call this case closed.
I mean the polygraph test has been shown to not work since the 1960s, so I don't feel that proves anything.

regarding the unpainted material underneath: that hole appears to have been punched rather than drilled due to the existence of the radius on the surface edge facing the camera. Was there a rivet in this hole that was removed? That would explain the drill walking all over the place too. At any rate, the hole int he unpainted material appears to be part of the actual manufacturing process as I wouldn't think astronauts have equipment onboard to punch holes in metals like that.
I think we're going to end up finding out that this was just sloppy work done on the ground long ago.
Would be very interested in your take on how to manage impact to a theoretical space elevator.
Both unmanaged debris, as well as orbiting satellites (controlled and can manoeuvre).
Is it realistic to think that in the timeframe we can put up an elevator (200 years? 1000?) that the issues of impact could be managed?
Wasn't it just revealed last week that it was done by the female NASA Astronaut...?
I waved at the screen lmao... HI PIERCE!
If it was done in space there'd have still been shavings/paint around the hole.

Let's also not forget his collab with Doormonster (back the White Lightning HQ, I think. Been some time since I watched it.) which was absolutely great.
Remember this incident, and still find it a bit odd, like, if you were an astronaut or cosmonaut and wanted to go home, if you chose to drill a hole with multiple failed attempts visible, just the planning alone would put you in a very high risk of getting caught under later investigations, as an astronaut you would be very aware of getting caught, a simple investigation should have been able to determine what astronaut and cosmonaut did what at any given time in relation to when the leak started to appear, which is odd because the Russians didn't do such investigation when they could have, and where did the drill go? Feels like the Russians is hiding something.

Scott! I am so glad you made this video on the roof top park on the transit center. I was inspired to go experience that wonderful park for myself. I was fortunate enough to visit it before it was abruptly closed, just SIX WEEKS after opening! The terminal complex briefly served as a bus station during that time. The structural defects have kept the multi billion dollar station closed ever since. In addition to bus service, the terminal is intended to have regular commuter train rail service, and eventually high speed rail. It appears that the regular commuter rail service may be available for in time for your eventual grandchildren to use, and high speed rail might come along in time for your great grandchildren. Makes me think: if we can go to the moon, why can't we.........?
Scott can you please do a video on LOP-G and specifically the choice to do a HALO orbit? This seems to really reduce the utility of the station and I would like to know your thoughts on this. Thanks.
