      If there was extraterrestrial life in such a vast, old and life-friendly universe, then all the matter within it would've become self-replicating nanomachines created by it since long ago, which massive collective AI would've figured out faster-than-light intergalactic travel and endless energy sources, with "good" and/or bad intentions. 🤷‍♂

      I've been saying I'll watch this later until I noticed the thumbnail change. I know you'll add it to your data but I'm just letting you know that the reason I clicked to watch wasn't because the thumbnail was better or worse, but just because I noticed it was different. Maybe that's a win-win.

      Technically, everyone is sort of part of the mechanism. Public interest is important for funding, and someone must make and deliver food to the scientists, others have to make the machines, roads and everything. This requires an entire civilisation. Think about it this way, if you've sent those scientists, along with all their equipment, back to the stone age, they couldn't have done anything really. No power lines, no easy access to food and water nor medicine. They would've had to hunt and gather to survive and most would die early. We are all contributing in a small way :)

      That being said, I imagine that there will be increasing use of space in warfar at some point. Which isn’t great - but a nice side effect will be renewed focus. Not as in another space race, but as in - if the military starts spending $100b on space stuff, it’s not gonna be hard to piggy back and use the military pays for and develops to do pure science stuff as well.

      Individual human pettiness drives a lot of the individual actions in a situation like this, to be sure, but it is the threat to a larger power structure that sees dissenters convicted.

I had the honor to hear Dr. Pappalardo give a deeply heart-felt speech as well as meet many of the people who played a role in getting Europa Clipper and her various instruments into space the night before the launch on the 14th at the pre-launch event in Florida. Then had the amazing opportunity to be an invited guest for one of the private viewing areas and sitting among the same people I met the night before at Kennedy Space Center.

    3:26 To those who don't know, clippers are a type of cargo ships. To my knowledge, they were never used for leisure or passenger transport. Clippers were specifically used for tea, born from an era when, rather than focus on bulk volume, some traders focused on freshness. So clippers were made, with tiny cargo spaces but lots or sails, and such traders would actually compete with each other for the fastest arrival. The first to arrive in England would get extra payment.
    That said, of course tea delivered by clippers were way above premium; super fresh and extremely limited amounts meant they were for the nobility.

    As a science fan, I always admired Arthur C. Clarke. I’m proud to be Sri Lankan because he made Sri Lanka his home from 1956 until he passed away in 2008. I think he’s the most respected foreigner in our country. When I was a kid, people celebrated him a lot. Even today, schools here teach about him, and he’s remembered with love and respect. His name is still alive in Sri Lanka, even after his death. 🥰

      If you want proof of alien life just watch the Las Vegas kenmore family video. Hasn’t been debunked and it’s been 6 months now since it’s been proven there’s entities in the video no cgi. Only “debunking” has been personal attacks on the people who helped prove it. Disclosure happened though it may have been small it will ripple eventually. You’ll likely need to watch videos where people point out or zoom in on the entities. There’s multiple. A 9 foot tall one. A really short one. All are cloaked though not perfectly. One’s cloaking even fails momentarily and you see it’s head pop into existence for one second before disappearing. Like I said no cgi.

    Derek, I just wanted to congratulate you on, against the odds, maintaining consistent quality while also increasing production value and content volume. Usually we see UA-camrs go down the easy route of becoming corporate puppets and sacrificing integrity for quick cash, but you seem conscientious of the sponsors you allow on your channel and you've never forgotten your name. Not just an element of truth, but highly accurate and engaging!

      I feel like that too. We are actually slow, unless there is alternative for rocket fuels

      @linecraftman3907 Місяць тому +121

      There is a caveat
      After launch it will go back to fly by Earth, then Mars and only then go to Jupiter. This is done to take advantage of gravity assists, which is more efficient meaning the spacecraft needs less fuel and more mass can be spent on science.
      New horizons probe flew directly to Jupiter and it only took a year but it's a smaller spacecraft and it didn't stop at Jupiter

      We *could* get there fast. We'd have to build a much larger spacecraft that could take a direct route and decelerate hard at Jupiter (or air-brake in Jupiter's atmosphere).
      We don't normally build spacecraft like that so there'd be lots of new development required. That's more money (a LOT more money) and a higher chance of failure, but also a lot more time. Using a design like Clipper is actually faster than developing a spacecraft that could travel there directly.
      If we had a cheap way of getting mass into orbit, it'd be a different story.

    I love the patience of astronomers and other space scientists. Doing something now and getting results only after 7 years. I remember when JWST launched and I was exited about it but also at the same time I was bummed about having to wait 2 years for it to start telescoping. All of a sudden though the 2 years passed and we started getting this amazing science with it. 2030 will come too no doubt 😊
