    45:33 Actually the capsule comes in at a slight tilt relative to its trajectory. This creates an offset aerodynamic force that can be controlled by adjusting the tilt, to adjust your aim as necessary. This extra control gives you a wider-angle window for starting the re-entry, which means a bigger safety margin in case you came in too high or too low. Otherwise you would need to get it within tighter margins to start with, with more chance of getting it wrong.

      @@derangedhermit2879 So first off Fukushima NOTHING failed. The reactor itself and safety systems did there jobs. The pumps and others systems were flooded causing them to shutdown. These can easily be hardened to resist flooding with water tight seals, reinforced pumps, and off site back up generators not located by the main complex. Now for Ukraine nothing has actually happened. Yes the plant was under direct fire but plant workers were able to safely shut down and secure the reactors long before the battle even reached the plant. As for the spent fuel there are plenty of ways to store fuel safely. Im seeming to remember if you introduce glass to spent fuel it can significantly reduce the amount of radiation the fuel gives off. All the above challenges are able to be over come with simple solutions.

    It started off a well done review of energy options and how they effect the average person's home. But it quickly morphed into a drum beat of jingoistic schmaltz. The fact that GE became the 2nd largest military contractor, largely by making the trigger switches for the nuclear bombs, in no way influenced them to talk up our armaments. No sir, no conflict of interest there.

All the appliances are things that are available today, and in reasonably common use - though the home soda fountain is a bit snobby, you can still get them. Six minutes of predictions for the future of the home, then a brief diversion into American pride and a reminder that the commies hate everything good and must be destroyed.

      ​@@detroitpistons4095 With all due respect, taken in context there is nothing at all in that short video segment that would imply slavery. It is a GE/DOD promotion/propaganda piece typical of the era, 1954 if my deciphering from Roman numerals is correct. That would put it smack in between the Korean and Vietnam wars hence the overtly anti-communist look and feel. It was also a time of rapid advancements in nuclear physics, energy, and electronics, and that works nicely into the propaganda-noir. Nationalist, not racist. Specifically the point I was quoting was showing how machines were taking over some of the manual burden, trading horse power for man power. Fewer men were needed to do the same work, they were missing because they could work elsewhere, possibly on the front line fighting the commies! There is no mention or implication of slavery anywhere in the film, none. If anything, the opposite is implied, that freedom is worth fighting for. Speaking of freedom, I hope you find yours someday. Free your mind and look at the world the way it really is. It's not always fair or just, there are wrongs committed and there are some terrible folk, but the good far exceeds them. Look for that with your head up, not looking for the crud with your head in the mud.
