I got it right for the wrong reason - I thought that the king would be able to get in front of the pawns that way. After some calculations, though, I don't think that that would be a good idea.
@@yyyy-uv3po the black king could approach the B pawn while the rook could make waiting moves behind the A pawn. If the white king stops protecting the B pawn, the black king could capture it. If the white king promotes the A pawn while protecting the B pawn, black could sacrifice the rook for the piece and if white recaptures, the black king could capture the B pawn. If the white king tries to sidestep the B pawn and push it, the black rook could capture the unprotected A pawn and pin the B pawn to the king. All of these options could lead to a draw or a loss for white.
Even if the same mirroring could happen somehow this would have still been winning for white on A7. The black king wouldn't have been able to move onto F3 because the pawn threatens a square earlier in the chain, which gives white the time to get a queen. I actually assumed this would be the solution when you pointed out that black couldn't step their king onto G3.
would have like a bit more about the 1. a7 Rb1+ 2. Ka5 line. It's not the same pattern of taking the opposition because after 2 ... Kc5 3. Ka6 Kc6 white has 4. a8=Q+. Instead black needs 3 ... Ra1+ and can hold from there even after the white king hides in front of its pawns with 4. Kb7. for instance black can draw by threatening to sac the rook for the a pawn and nab the b pawn with the king. but it's a variety of different looking lines compared to the rest of the puzzle.
I know Iron Moth and Great Tusk were in this video but I think Ultra Beasts and Paradox Pokemon should have their own segment. Like with this set Iron Thorns @ Booster Energy Ability: Quark Drive Tera Type: Flying EVs: 28 Atk / 228 Def / 252 Spe Jolly Nature - Supercell Slam - Ice Punch - Earthquake - Dragon Dance I manipulate the EVs so initially (under E-terrain) it’ll give a Def boost, but once you use Dragon Dance once you get an Atk boost.
Well, the key is to keep the king in the same file is the key but you need the rook to restrict it as well but staying away from the pawns that can become a queen. Er, maybe G6 too, not sure, nope, to need to control H1/H2, or G1 and are in the wrong starting position. ...
_It'd only take an hour for a 60mph car to drive to outer space._ No, that's not right. A car cannot be driven vertically and would need sloping ramps, which would take much longer. (The chess is great, though, thanks!) :)
Though what happens if you play KB5 then A7 ? Because after RB1 you have KA6, if black goes RA1 you have KB7 which I think it's winning for white and if black goes KD6 we could just promote ?
Q vs R is NOT the easy win everyone claims. In fact, as far back as 1984, Cray Blitz challenged then 6 Time U.S. Open Champion Walter Browne to a Q vs R endgame (Browne had the Q). After 50 moves, Browne had to take the draw by the 50 move rule. About two weeks later, he was given a rematch. This time, he won on move 50. This was in Chess Life magazine, the USCF official magazine.
Isn't outer space beyond earþ's atmosphere layers? If so it would take more þan 1 hour because according to my knowledge þe outermost layer of earþ ,"exosphere" respectively, streches around 500 to 1000 km (or about 625 mi) into space
It is generally accepted that outer space begins at 62miles, calling it the Karman Line. The Kármán line is based on the physical reality that it roughly marks the altitude where traditional aircraft can no longer effectively fly. Anything traveling above the Kármán line needs a propulsion system that doesn’t rely on lift generated by Earth’s atmosphere when the air is simply too thin that high up.
@@Beleidigen-ist-Pflicht of course that is still inside the varying exosphere, but further enough that it requires a different propulsion system so the decision is made somewhere. If you are looking for space without Nitrogen/oxygen molecules, then outside the variable exosphere is your place, as you said.
Earth's escape velocity is assuming you don't put any more energy into the car after it leaves the ground. But if a car somehow manages to maintain their 60 mph speed, then it can escape earth's gravity. Not to mention that 60 miles is definitely not far enough to consider the car to be far enough from earth to be considered to have escaped its gravity.
@@nwoDekaTsyawlA Being propelled just means you undergo acceleration. And if you can't accelerate above a velocity of 7 miles per second, for one reason or another, you won't leave orbit. Gravity will catch up.
@@reubenmanzo2054 No, being propelled in this case means that there is a constant force being generated to counter the downwards acceleration due to gravity. Gravity doesn't get stronger as you go up, it's the opposite. So gravity only "catches up" provided that you stop applying an upward force.
That was so funny what you said about the car. Wonder what your thoughts were. Maybe just about the distance? There are many things about the emptiness and vastness of space that can be demonstrated in various ways. Wonder how long you would need to travel before you find another planet that also has chess.
I actually said King to B5, and I have a hard time seeing where that isn't also a winning move. If Black mirrors your move with King to D5, then you move the pawn to A7 at that point. Black seems kind of stuck there. If they check on the B column with the rook, the King retreats to A6. Black can't continue pursuit with the Rook, and if they move King to C6 to threaten checkmate, then the A7 pawn promotes to a queen to check Black and force the King away. It seems like you get to a winning position much faster. Am I missing something?
after b5,c5,a7. black plays b1 check, if white king to a6, black king to c5. white is now forced to either promote on a8 causing a draw after rook takes queen. or white advances king to b7, where black can simply play rook to a1 and keep playing rook to a1 and a2 until white promotes causing a draw
If you moved p-a7 (as you suggest is white's winning move), I would counter w r-a1 With respect (seriously, I love your videos and insights) I don't think you've solved this yet....

Queen vs rook, use the same idea of interposing the kings and use the queen to check them into such a position or loose the rook.

(Sure, it's theoretically winnable. In practice... the algorithm is extraordinarily complicated. Maybe master-level players might know it by heart, and not even all of them.)
If you say 1 mile = 1 thousand steps it takes 60 miles to go to space to 1000x60= 60000 so it would take 60000 steps to get to space
On average, it’s about 2,000 steps in a mile. Though I guess it could be 1,000 if you take really long strides and are very tall.

Find a fork.
If your opponents not an idiot your only chance is time.
I've never been to space and I've driven at 60mph all the time
Its not true what you said about the car with 60mph ... not at all!
space is 60 miles above sea level, if a car travels UPWARD for 60 miles an hour, it will reach space in an hour

Regardless black checkmate in three.
I find a7 very fast, I am proud of myself
