  • SpaceX's Starship rocket is nearing first orbital tests. This Super Heavy launch vehicle promises to lift enormous masses into space, and do so at far cheaper costs than the competitors. What could these capabilities do for astronomy though? Join us today as we explore the potential transformative power of Starship for astronomy.

    I do admire the philosophy of learning through mistakes and trial by error. I remember so many people sneering and laughing whenever one of the SpaceX vehicles blew up. I think it says a lot about them and their mindset that they view failure as something to be ridiculed, and not something to be learned from.

    • @Mkenran
      @Mkenran 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      While I agree that there is nothing wrong with learning through failure, this doesn't mean thar elon has a better philosophy. The difference is that his inherited wealth makes it so that he can afford mistakes and just eyeball it, whereas nasa's budget is constantly being cut year after year.

Nasa, would have a robust budget if we all decided economics together rather than the capitalist minority. Some literally pay a few percent of their extreme wealth in taxes, yet build their wealth off the infrastructure we ALL pay for. It's disgusting

      @@Mkenran Space X spent roughly $3 Billion last year while NASA’s budget was nearly $25 Billion.
      Space X can afford destructive prototyping not because they have more funds, but because they’re not directly paid for by taxes. The perception of failure harms government organizations because we the people don’t like to see billions of our dollars burn up in orbit. So NASA is forced to run decades of simulations so that every test flight does exactly what it’s supposed to do. Space X can aim wide, miss wide, but still collect the data and incorporate updates in the next rocket without backlash.
      It seems advances in rocket technology have benefitted from rapid prototyping and testing.

    Regarding aluminium as an alternative to steel, without going into the heat resistance advantages of steel, it should be pointed out that aluminium generally has a similar strength/weight ratio as steel. To resist a given force, you need a smaller steel cross-section than you do aluminium, but both will weigh about the same. So weight is rarely a sufficient reason to choose aluminium over steel.

      @@khaccanhle1930 i understand why you said that about David Attenborough, however I want to believe that because of his age, he holds some outdated views that white people from his generation grew up believing, and its one of those things that takes a younger, newer generation to crush that "trope" ... But I dont think that people like him who say that "overpopulation" automatically means populations from african and south east asian countries that cause climate change, obviously there is some truth to the fact that overpopulation does stress the "natural environment" and maybe because he is so "close" to nature all the time, its hard for him to see how that viewpoint has racist undertones.. i dunno. I heard my mother say that shit once, but shes an Obama simp and hates Trump + MAGA. She's just an old white german lady who is too old to see that this is a bad take.

    A vessel of this size could also launch thousands of, for example, 4 inch reflector telescopes each the size of a cubesat working in visible light. These could then be public telescopes in space where amateur astronomers and Joe public could be controlling and observing on their desktop at home for a small fee perhaps beginning at 30 minutes going to 24 hours for example. Where to place them, what their life would be and how to dispose of them when life expired are some of the questions that clearly would need answering. Not to mention attitude control, attitude control parameters, power usage and so on. But it could be done, I'm sure. The more I think about it, the more I think it's viable at some point in the not so distant future.

      I had a somewhat similar idea for having a large collection of relatively small cheap telescopes, with mirrors more in the range of 1m.
      That could then share data like they do with the event horizons project.
      The one fatal flaw of the plan is the data sharing aspect, not sure how one would do that cheaply with current technology, but if that hurdle is overcome in the future. We could have a space telescope with a collection aperture larger then our own planet, and the more telescopes there are the higher resolution we'd get.
      Getting the price point relatively low for every part of the satellites would be essential as a dozen of them wouldn't be able to offer anything better then what event horizons is already doing. But a few hundred would be mind blowing levels of detail.

Imagine the Nautilus project having the capability to re-load failed units back into the Starship for earth-based inspection, and then apply that knowledge to the next batch. You could afford to just send it and find out, no need to perform billions of dollars worth of ground-based engineering beforehand. By the time you get to billions of dollars spent, you have an optimized system of thousands of unit telescopes sent for cheaper and cheaper with each launch.

    Thank you so much for your videos. You are inspiring in so many ways. I was wondering where you found this version of Hans Zimmer S.T.A.Y that you use in your videos? For this video it's at the 22 minute mark. It is so beautiful but I just can't seem to find it anywhere. I tried finding the music with the two links in the description with no luck. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    I'm glad that we delayed the manned Mars until today instead of doing it in the 80s and 90s. We could actually afford to stay instead of doing a repeat of the Apollo program. Not only that but it seems like we're distancing ourselves from US federal budget so even if the Feds were to stop 100 percent funding the Mars missions the private industry would likely keep the colonial operations going.

    While it's nice to hope that SpaceX comes through on their claims, it's prudent to remember that Musk generally just says random numbers and goals that sound unachievable, because they actually are.

      @@CoolWorldsLab however, there are some doubts, that "reusability" makes launches cheaper. In order to get breakeven point reusable rocket must have launches constantly, but there is no such demand on the market. SpaceX can't find a client for Falcon Heavy, hardly finds clients launches for Falcon9 - substituting them with another ponzi-alike venture - Starlink. It is hardly understandable, is there any client, which needs to launch 150 tons to the LEO. So far, Starship's reusability is dead by arrival, except of Starlink launches.
      Knowing Musk's business style by example of Solar City, there is considerations that SpaceX cannot reach breakeven point, compensating it with flow from investors and venture foundations.

      I have my doubts about the realism in Space X/Musk’s vision and timelines. I think he is hyping things up to get whatever support he needs in order to keep rolling. The man said they would launch humans to Mars in 2024, but it sure doesn’t look that way now. He recently readjusted it to 2029. This is a common theme for Musks wild claims. Proof is in the pudding, until then it’s all just talk - and Musk loves to talk.

    Thank you for your channel. I have learned so much since subscribing. Interesting now that starship has had its first flight. The success/failure of the first flight shows there are many obstacles ahead, time will have to be spent on re-designing a viable launch pad/system, and increasing the reliability of the raptor engines, which I think has quite a way to go. However, those of us who have followed SpaceX’s failures and successes over the years have no doubt that they will ultimately solve these problems and give us this launch capability in the very near future. Please keep these videos coming.

    It is such a shame that most of the money SpaceX saves NASA continues to be handed over to Boeing, SLS, and Blue Origin for their poorly managed projects that simply do not work for various reasons. SpaceX should be paid the same per seat as Boeing to perform the same work - i.e. Crew Dragon vs Starliner. The extra profits to SpaceX would find numerous uses to speed its various R&D projects.

      That's not how NASA's budget works. The money for SLS is allocated by Congress, it can't be used for anything else. As for Blue Origin, etc, part of NASA's job is to get multiple companies working on multiple options.
      As for Starliner; the key part to understand is, Boeing and SpaceX weren't paid to provide the same work. The Commercial Crew Program is designed to provide seats to the ISS in a similar manner, yes, but it's also designed to have that done by two providers. SpaceX was paid to develop a spacecraft, building on the knowledge gained from the cargo craft it was already launching. Boeing was paid to essentially start from scratch. Crew Dragon is a very different craft than Cargo Dragon, but it wasn't starting from scratch. SpaceX's bid price was based on their expectation that the rocket's cost would be partially recouped by reusing it. Boeing's bid price was based on them knowing they had to use an expendable Atlas.
