      X-plorer honestly though lots of businessmen doubt him saying "How will he make a Profit with this?!" while he doesnt even want to make a Profit he just wants to do cool shit because its awesome and He has the money to. Meanwhile being a hero to humanity and still profiting by a ton. and the fact that he is doing this for humanity is even greater. Most people just make companys for the sake of earning money and after they earned a couple Billion they just keep earning and the money piles up without a purpose. But Elon keeps going and spends all that money in a useful sense. (I hope you know what I mean im Bad with words)

      Oh yeah, if SpaceX keeps up its lead in space it will be the first company to start mining asteroids...a practice that will make the first trillionaires. But I think the thing Musk is really looking forward to are having Martian Continents named after him (after we melt the ice caps and make oceans on Mars again) and having an asteroid carved into a giant Elon Musk statute that will orbit around the solar system forever. Because if this man really turns out to be one we needed to kick humanity off its collective arse and back into space...I think he deserves all of those things.

      @John Toas gigavolt strength electric field is capable of inducing several tons of thrust upon ions created as cascade ionization occurs within the atmosphere.
      Currently the highest voltage humans humans have generated is only 20 megavolts apparently. Voltage is the measure of joules per coulomb of charge. Increasing the voltage imparts more force per ion. A sufficient electric field strength breaks atmosphere free of electrons and each ion is accelerated enough to ionize with each collision called cascade ionization.

      Well you need to start somewhere . But I agree his ideas is to foolish like going to talk about stage 10 (terraform and cities) when they not started or succeed on stage 1 (actual landing). They aim too high too soon first start with just a test run see if you can make it dangerous enough to begin with.

      +jano Gabor - They've already completed a bunch of steps, including getting to orbit, returning from orbit (Dragon capsule), propulsive landing of an orbital-class rocket, they've extensively tested supersonic retropropulsion in Earth's upper atmosphere, and they've already tested the Raptor engine and built a carbon fiber LOX tank for the Mars spacecraft.
      In the next few years, they will relaunch a reused rocket, accomplish bringing humans to LEO, and likely will land cargo on Mars - by far the heaviest Mars landing of all time.

    • @janogabor7697
      @janogabor7697 8 років тому

      Yes I know sorry, expressed my self in a wrong way. I know what they achived but still think it is to long away to talk about it. There is still crucial technology needed to succeed. They have a way the reuse rockets a new engine a better tank but one thing is missing shielding for explorers. You don't want to send corpses to mars. (it is a little pricey human disposal) They need to really look out for radiation and other nasty things. One thing humanity learned from nature is to never look down on it. You need to prepare for the worst not saying "just a little chance of cancer" this is foolish there is a big dose of radiation in deep space and mars is not better.

      It is important to consider they are different kinds of companies in the way the function:
      SpaceX = private company, private investors, builds nearly all rocket components in house, reducing costs
      NASA = government agency, government-paid, imports many components of the rockets, driving costs up.
      * * *
      They are both awesome 'companies', but with NASA's funding much down after the shuttle missions and still inefficient means of construction (as in they could be more efficient), they are still trying to have a successful rocket (SLS). For now, a lot of missions, such as ISS supply and satellite launches, are generally handled by either Orbital ATK or SpaceX.

  • @Northstar1989
    @Northstar1989 8 років тому +66

    I really don't see why Elon is insisting on sending the cargo with the crew. If you send the cargo seperately, you can send it via slower TMI trajectories that require less Delta-V, and thus less fuel (the slowest, lowest-energy trajectories could take well over 200 days- and that's just from the time you finally left Earth orbit- so they wouldn't really be appropriate for humans). This saves launches, as you can pack more cargo into an unmanned version of the MCT on such a trajectory, and thus saves money. The cargo would simply be sent ahead of the crew, and would be unpacked either by robots, or the crew when they arrived...

    • @971menu
      @971menu 8 років тому +14

    • @Northstar1989
      @Northstar1989 8 років тому +3

      @Roberto By splitting the cargo and crew into 2 separate vehicles, they could make each smaller and send less total mass. So it would be cheaper than a single MCT, not more expensive (especially if they used the same aeroshell for each, and just filled one with crew compartments and the other with cargo- the cargo one could also be heavier due to requiring less Delta-V to reach Mars on its slower trajectory).

    • @Northstar1989
      @Northstar1989 8 років тому +4

      @Matter, Highly unlikely. That's life-support, and it's something entirely different than "flat-packed cargo". Most of it is water and oxygen tanks- also CO2 scrubbers (or Sabatier Reactors- they can augment life support systems by consuming crew CO2 and reclaiming the Oxygen portion of it for much less mass than conventional CO2 scrubbers. Even better, water which is already needed for life support provides a readily available hydrogen store for a Sabatier Reactor while also producing breathable Oxygen when electrolyzed...) and water recyclers. Only some of that mass is food- which is one of the few components that might actually be described as cargo like that... But most likely, the great majority of cargo are supplies needed to establish a sustainable colony on Mars, since Elon made no mention of seperate, specialized cargo vehicles, and you need a LOT of equipment to have any hope of surviving in such an alien and hostile climate...
      If you don't need something until you get to the Martian surface, though, it can more easily and cheaply be sent ahead of time in a dedicated cargo mission (if Musk would just realize the need for this)

Why would such people think that it's worth spending tax payers money to travel to other planets? Elon Musk is right, in a different video he says that if there's to be a 3rd world war it will probably be a nuclear one. If we have people living on Mars at that time at least there will be some people left to repopulate the earth.
      The fact that there are problems on earth isn't a reason to stop researching into travelling to other planets on the contrary it's a reason to put more effort into it.

      I believe he's just anxious.

      If he spoke at the level he thinks nobody would understand. Has to calculate everything he says for us dummies.

      Noticed it to but its pretty common for most people. I myself have difficulty speaking publicly. That's why I always hated public classroom presentations back in school.

      Gin-chan's Odd Jobs that's how he's spoken in pretty much all of his speeches. I thought he sounded bad the first time I've heard him, but over time I've grown to admire it because even though he's not the best speaker he still does it anyway. It's charismatic in its own way because he doesn't let the stuttering stop him. As someone else mentioned, when he does remove the filter and talks all technical he can run circles around people
