For some reason people don't know about the 1 realistic method for interstellar travel. If a ship leaves our solar system at a constant 1g acceleration rate it would get to Alpha Centauri in 3.6 years (7.3 years would pass on Earth), this includes turning the ship around halfway to decelerate. This is by far the fastest way we can get to other worlds and the ship would have gravity the whole way. It would achieve about 95% light speed after 1 year. A 10 ton ship would require a mere 10 tons of continuous thrust. All that is needed for this is a fission rocket that consumes uranium or plutonium only. They are both jittery atoms that are on the verge of fissioning all by themselves, there should be a way to get them to fission in a linear fashion. What's needed is a controlled, time released nuclear explosion. In an atomic bomb fission occurs when neutrons hit uranium or plutonium nuclei. This is because they will not tolerate an increase in mass. Due to the equivalence of mass and energy the same should be true if you infuse them with energy. To see new fission rocket concepts watch my video "Best method for interstellar travel"
"In the early sixty-S" "Newton's third law of Newton" 😂AI narration may not be the best way to go. Edit: I should point out the information and visuals are great!
Thank you! We agree, the AI narration isn't good. Unfortunately we can't afford to hire a quality narrator yet, so when the channel starts to bring in revenue we'll take care of it right away.
I was born with many difficulties in my life. Although I am not fully educated, I have a strong love for science and the universe. Thank you for bringing it to me. Love you
We sound so high tech... all we do is take the heat from decay to heat water to steam and use that to turn a turbine engine. Humans are 1 step past the steam engine. Yay, go team.

Thank you for such a great response and also for explaining this method! I will definitely check out your video.

Oh, thank you for your comment! That's really nice to hear and it motivates us to create videos. You will do well, I'm sure of it. ❤️

Very good
Here’s a comment for the algorithm man. God speed
Oh, thanks bro :)
Lead shield between humans and engines.
The visual you have at 3:30 is of a rotating detonation engine not a nuclear engine.
Oh, right. Our mistake.
You have my attention
Well we can all dream cant we. Better than living with ideologies so ancient, we live today as if we are still in ancient times.
this would be so cool if it were real
Nuclear is first next step, there is already very small nuclear reactors and even engines of Military missiles as they claim with endless range...
NASA is so bound in red tape and bureaucracy they can't do anything on time or in budget. I miss the Apollo days.
Hell, yeah.
and Elon Musk knew literally nothing about all this when he talked with Joe Rogan
