What will happen to the International Space Station?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 чер 2019
- After two decades in space, the materials and structures that make up the International Space Station are wearing away and future of the ISS is uncertain. In this video, we look at how long the space station has left, NASA's plans for future space stations and the possibility of SpaceX turning Starship into its own space station.

A wave of sadness passed me when the words ISS and retire are spoken in the same sentence
Can you tell me how the ISS benefits anyone? Besides the snakes at NASA pocketing billions as a result of people believing nonsense
thank to people like you bo j, we might go extinct in the next thousands of years, since we won't have roots to travel to other planets.
@@lillburtlonk3721 tell me. What has the iss done for you?
@@OrangeGuy i understand it's hard to break away from the beliefs instilled in you from a young age but research everything without pre existing bias and you'll come to the same conclusion millions of people already did.
If you knew anything about space you would think different. People who are against funding NASA are the same people who hate the goverment and believe in dumb conspiracys.
I wish somebody could put cameras and antennas all over the inside and out of ISS and livestream the de-orbiting.
Edit: I’m talking about magic hypothetical ones that could survive re-entry, not the flimsy cameras they have hanging on the outside. The current station setup would surely blackout during the most intense phase of the reentry.
Why isnt their a 360° camera live sttream on top and bottom now?
@@laserfalcon There's some cameras streaming, but a 360º camera would need a lot of band space (that could be more useful for transmitting telemetry and more information.
@@ErickSoares3 im sure it still could be done and seen as very educational
It's possible but don't expect a show. Tiangong 2 livestreamed its fall back to Earth to Chinese scientist but the feed cut out before anything broke due to plasma blackout
@@laserfalcon They could've and they did have a live view, but the experiment broke so there won't be a live feed until someone makes a new experiment and launches it to the ISS. A 360 camera is possible, the ISS has the bandwidth to do it, just no one has bothered to make one and launch it. And no, NASA can't just make one and send it up the next day, it doesn't work like that.
Imagine civilization in 1000 years discovering the iss in the ocean
Lol what iss? The thing won't survive re-entry, maybe a few bits and pieces but that's it.
their probably gonna collect the biggest pieces
The international space station is gonna become the international sea station
People In 1000 years.later will Think That ISS Is a alien ship LOL
@@channelafnan9003 if they didn't became the alians to other civilazed planet
It will be a very sad day when the ISS retires. I remember as a young lad sitting outside on the days of a clear night sky with my father, tracking the movements of the ISS and watching it pass by as a very distant light.
*And further future, the sky was no longer clear, but it remains in my memories...*
Today I saw the ISS with my mother. I will remember this moment when ISS retires in the future
I really Hope starship or something Deorbit it safely and puts it in a museum
I'm sure some future historians would appreciate it if the ISS was dismantled and safely brought back to Earth, assuming that it's possible

@@jshepard152 At best itl be sold to bigelow which would transform the station into a massive hotel.
Dakota Moffatt Maybe turn it into a hotel for civilians in the future.
Dakota Moffatt It won’t happen, the ISS doesn’t travel above us...
Requiring 27 space shuttle launches at US$400 million per launch. Hmmm
The biggest shooting star which everyone can wish upon.
Its gonna be awful not somthing to wish apon
It's gonna trash the ocean
@@salmanrashid how? I'm pretty sure the designed it so that it can fully burn up in the atmosphere when it re enters, idek if you would have ash that falls because I think it purns like plasma of some shit that's how hot it gets
@@salmanrashid most of satellite debris that re-enter earth's atmosphere will burned up in atmosphere. But there's still some chances it will hit the ocean
Dylan Morrison no some parts will survive
I'm going to drop my LEGO ISS when they drop the real one.

@@DomesticatedDuck 2020. There's a 2003 one?
@@leoslego5965 yeah google it
Imagine how this Iconic Space Station will be reported to future generations in the history books in 20-50 years. I, as a person who grew up during this time and always took the ISS for granted, cannot imagine that. And that's scary in some way.

"Once Space X has Star-ship up and running,
it could be modified and turned into it's own space station.
with a single Star-ship providing more space than the entire ISS."
This is our rate of progression, amazing!
Only due to someone besides government getting into the game.
@Sawyer Dickson we have been to the moon, which is on actual space. There none of earth's atmosphere up there.
Triton 64 yeah but we still have earth magnetic fields as protection even there
@Sawyer Dickson well I get in very scarse amounts there is air, but it's like negligible
@Sawyer Dickson Earth's atmosphere never really ends. It fades away and the further you go into space the fewer and fewer amount of particles there are per cubic meter.
Your voice just goes so well with this script, it would be very interesting to see you cover the more technical aspects of previous space missions. Keep it up man!
@GodMade TheGlobe ??
GodMade TheGlobe please dont be a flat brained flat earther that doesnt beleieve in the moon landings

Hello
Thats the real Elon Musk!!
People are out there trying to clean up the oceans...
*NASA* let's dump our trash over the Pacific...
1st the projects are in the Atlantic so far.
2nd should we drop the station on your house? :)
But im wondering wouldn it be a thing to refurbish/Scrap the modules for a new space station? I mean that would require something like a small extra (sucessor) station/Spacedock capable of modifying the things in space.
The following idea is quite naive but for easier understanding if the Hull is "thinned" out by radiation etc, weld a new plate on it making it stronger than before and good for another 25 years. Replace wiring etc. In all i thing that would decrease the needed Materials and Weight needed to ship into space which as far as i know is most of the cost.
That could also be the fist real learning experience by building spaceships in space which is always considered the jump to mars ,or from the moon where we put our eyes on now.
You're right. They should fire up the its thrusters and send it into outer space instead!
At 3:02 those are the party animals of the international space station who parties like there's no tomorrow with loud music that you can hear from Earth with tons of alcohol and lots of nose candy for these party animals...!!
You should watch the video again as it was clearly not NASA
I'd love to hear your solution, because it has to come home somehow..
What if nemo dies from the deorbiting space station?
Then we won't have to worry about c'thulu anymore!
Um
@@tompeck5495 lol i am crying rn
one cartoon character destroyed by another
*Sigh
Just seems like the world is just growing apart and going their own way. The optimism of a united Earth in the 90s with the ISS will literally go down in flames its a pity.
When you think of space and how small we are, it's a humbling feeling.
*NASA - We will drop the ISS into Point Nemo.*
*Cthulhu - Am I a joke to you ?*
TheTruthIsGonnaHurt only intellectuals will get this
The International Space Station should not have existed. Instead they should've had a moon base with people living on it shortly after the Apollo missions.
@@Angry.General1461 Thank you for your in-depth costs and benefits analysis
hackerman Considering we could also mine the moon for materials that could definitely benefit our costs in the long run..
It's a gift for cthulhu
00:12 _...Conducting an incredible amount of scientific research,_
**shows people floating in zero-gravity and enjoying meals**
And playing guitar
And doing scientific research.
Astronauts gotta eat too....damn
I physically recoiled when that guy started grabbing baby carrots out of midair
Odd how you ignore the astronaut clearly performing a hydroponic experiment in that segment. Pushing an agenda?
Why did my heart just break and I almost started crying when I heard ISS Retiring
Lol
Ok, you’re having mental breakdown with ISS?
Because you're a weak marshmallow.
Well, I did start crying.
Because it's a piece of history that's why
"We can appreciate the enormous amount of knowledge it has given us"
The internet: "This is fake and Earth is flat"
the internet: "the moon landing is fake"
@Friday Goood The first one in 1969 with people in it that millions of people still think was staged
@Friday Goood Apollo 11 wasn't the first?
@Friday Goood "first manned landing" there you go
Your mums flat like a floor
Put some booster rockets on it and put it in orbit around the moon
At 3:02 those are the party animals of the international space station who parties like there's no tomorrow with loud music that you can hear from Earth with tons of alcohol and lots of nose candy for these party animals...!!
Put it on the moon and future missions maybe able to salvage shit to use
dude you know how far it is? it is impossible to bring ISS to moon
wojtekpolska dude there is no time limit
No friction in space give a push to the moon and flies to it
Today in my University, my group's paper on creating cheap full flow staged combustion engines as a goal for our research has been approved and supported by our uni and they're gonna help us by funding it, wish us luck...
Best of luck for your research project .....I wish the the project would be 100% success and within the time a friend from INDIA....
That's exciting! I hope to hear about a fantastic breakthrough in the near future. Which university?
gonna huh?
@@timearly5226 Have you not heard of the Raptor engine designed by SpaceX? I mean, more power to this guy for his project, and granted that the Raptor hasn't gone to orbit yet, but it is a functional design which has flown on test hops. Unless something really catastrophic happens, the only thing standing between it and orbit is time. ;)
Even if it can’t all be saved, it would be great if some of the parts could be saved from the ocean and put in an exhibit if they will dump it. It’s a huge part of history, and if it can be saved, it should.
If this doesn’t become a museum I will be fuming
Would have to get me large museum since it’s larger than a 747
Just like the ISS while it falls from the sky
A human can only dream
The blue Traxxas Rustler yeah you’d need a museum as big as a football field
it wont unless spaceX gets a deal with all the woners of the module to pick all of em up with the starship's cargo rocket wich could most likely take 4 modules wich means only 4 reuseable rockets launches:)
Tow it to the Moon to be left as a monument, and communications relay.
Just think how much fuel you need to get a space station this large and heavy to the orbit of the Moon, not even speaking of cost of landing it.
@@MaycroftCholmsky I never said land it.
And Elon might raise its orbit.
@@ImmortalAbsol Seven words: space debris
@@pillarshipempireemployee0142 Or not.
Connor ImmortalAbsol No, it will be a monument in point Nemo/Spacecraft cemetery.
This was really interesting, thank you for such a high quality video!! ☺
Blows my mind when they still talk about how much these projects cost. Currency is a made up number, we should use whatever resources are needed to continue our growth as a civilisation. And not think twice
"ima do a deconstruction of society watch me guys" -TheLunarr
What about people who make or mine that resources
Land it on the moon. I’m sure all that metal will be useful someday.
Daniel Le Couilliard thats not possible
@@jdwoods5790 yes it is using mercury substances on outer interior surfaces you can drift it to other metals such as mercury found on the moon.
look at the pictures on the back of the box to see the other things you can build using the same pieces from that set
......I'd be hiding my face too
@omgwtf696969 oh no another shill is mocking me
Such a shame, it really is an engineering marvel!
It's amazing seeing it fly by from here on earth
I think the ISS community will end up doin the museum idea
I feel we must have an iss as a humanity
But like what does it do
@@AluminumOxide u mean after it burns up on re entry ?lol
Why not deorbit the space station straight into kim jong un house.?
Early7 Strikeland he lives in a palace but your joke was good, also he’d blame it on the West and declare war on the US and South Korea
100,000,000 subscribers without any videos can’t start a war if ur dead
Actually not a bad idea. If he declares war on us, then he will just lose within days die to his malnourished citizens and out dated army equipment.
Connor Bracey, Kimberly isn’t the only person North Korea
Nice joke, but due to it’s orbit it would be impossible anyways.
This sounds like it's narated by bird person
Patrick Stevenson HE DOES WTF
Lol wtf
Nice
Well when the time comes
*Rip ISS 1998 - 2028*
2028?
You mean 2023-2025
YeahThe Boyz They said the ISS will retire in 2028 but the budget to run it will run out in 2024-2025
This video got you my subscription. Exited to see more from you 😁👍
Excited
4:40 "SpaceXploration" :)
I’ve watched the iss pass over me every night since last year and it’ll be sad when I can’t watch it anymore
Once I saw Hadfield playing the guitar, I nearly cried.
2:52 thats debris from a falcon 9.....
Gele Banaan well it’s still gets its point across doesn’t it?
@@fivemagics18 Should have put a disclaimer.
Glad I am able to track this thing and be able to see from below before it is gone.
I plan on going there and soon after the drop grabbing a few pieces if I can. Preserving and owning an amazing piece of history.
2:10 Elon with maracas, thumbs up for that!
I love space and stuff like that and for some reason this makes me really sad that they are deorbiting this legend of a space station
I love the shot of the shuttle docked at the station.
Very nice and
Informative.
You have a mesmerising voice.
1:43 this is where you are very wrong good sir. As we all know SpaceX is currently developing their new rocket BFR, and starship could easily fit a module from the ISS.
I'm hoping that they can bring down the Hubble telescope when its service lifetime runs out. A few ISS modules to put in a museum alongside it would also be pretty darn epic!!
@@TallinuTV nah, shoot it into the ocean and save the money for a future space station
Yancarlo Ramsey
I’d rather the entire ISS become a museum.
Nice video. I wonder how the next space station is going to look like.
"Free up funding"
It's so sad to hear those words, considering how the US government is literally throwing boatloads of money at the military - which will never need to worry about finances.
@John Sylvyn they like not being threatened by war, they don't like war
John Sylvyn well it would help if other countries would actually invest in their militaries so we wouldn’t have to throw a third of our budget keeping 30+ nations safe.
Seriously look how much money are we shoveling at the UN compared to other countries. Yet we’re still near the top when it comes to space travel too.
@@killerkitten7534 ikr, we need to stop babying them lol
@@bornkinggamer3347 then leave the country if ya hate it so much, don't stay here. You complain about our country and think it sucks, yet you stay here
@@bornkinggamer3347 well I definitely don't hate this country and I know that. I dont feel like a patriot, I just like my country and don't want to try to change the government into some different type of country. On the moron part, I think that's kinda unnecessary but I'll except it. The genocide part I did "flinch" and I did find out what you are talking about. There is no hard evidence for it just some media (nobody likes the media, atleast I dont and I think alot of people can agree) saying that MAYBE we might have done some sorta thing and even if we did which we could have, it wouldn't be we are funding just so the higher ups could just watch some genocide far away, it would be for a good reason, not just that they are evil physopaths like you implied that kill innocent people. Lastly, that last part you said doesn't make sense to me, you know I like this country, wy do you want me to leave it, leave if you think there is a better country, stay if it is good, just likeing buying fruit or something. If you like it hard, get it before its ripe but the people who turned down that one can get the overripe one. Who knows if that analogy fit but thats just my thinking. So no I won't leave this country because I love it and if you don't that doesn't mean you should say I'm wrong for liking it.
Who’s here after Elon launched the dragon crew space ship to the iss
Nobody.
Sidoxyy 17 people are

A museum with ISS modules would be really awesome, but yeah the things you mentioned really makes such an endeavor improbable.
The starahip space station idea is great, dude!

NASA: NO WAY 27 SPACE SHUTTLE LAUNCHES
*Starship enters the chat*
Cool video!
Wow, a lots going to happen this year that I have never heard of
Great video, like always :)
Its great the more nations get into space, because it probably will bring us further in terms of technology and scientific research but its also really sad at the same time. Space travel/research is an excercise for humanity as a whole and should be accomplished together! Together we are stronger 🇪🇺🇨🇦🇨🇳🇯🇵🇷🇺🇺🇸🇮🇳
ISS ending soon? Sad.
Lunar Space Station and possible missions to Mars? COOOOLL!!!
Thing is the people that go to mars might never return
Awesome graphics
thx 4 this data
NASA will leave the space station to private companies and it’ll be covered in ads but will continue to fly for many years.
the ISS will be the attraction, if taken over. Rather than the landmark itself being covered, the logic is in favor of branded models being docked, to preserve the attraction.
But one time it will get so old that will need to be deorbited for safety.
The International Space Station should not have existed. Instead they should've had a moon base with people living on it shortly after the Apollo missions.
@@ErickSoares3 Exactly. The structure, particularly the connections between modules, undergoes constant wear, even from the various small stresses placed on them by tidal forces and such. And eventually something could fail catastrophically, resulting in sudden depressurization and potentially the death of anyone onboard when that happened. Unfortunately this means that the most expensive structure ever built has a limited lifespan simply for safety reasons, without even getting into other potential factors.
@The Angry General The economics of that just wouldn't have been viable. And the ISS has provided invaluable return on investment in the form of many years of data, not just from explicitly formulated experiments, but also knowledge of how humans are affected by long durations in free fall and how to cope with those effects, not to mention the amount of experience we've gained related to simply living and working in space effectively. There are things you just can't learn from short duration missions. And while a base on the moon will certainly provide a lot of similarly interesting opportunities to expand our knowledge, getting there regularly without breaking the bank requires the kind of knowledge, technology, and production economics that are only now starting to become a reality.
Hope they find an ad space for 'No Litter Here Please '🙏
NASA is also considering finding private investors like SpaceX to get help with funding ISS, and allowing private agencies to send their own modules
No one wants to fund it! Lol
@@jshepard152 Bigelow aerospace always wanted to buy out the space station tbh.

2024!!! Wow that sounds great!!! I can't wait for Livestream from the moon to appear on UA-cam!!!
We already know whats going to happen to the ISS. It's going to be sent off 700 million miles away from Earth where multiple extraterrestrial species will begin to build on to the station until it expands to about the same size as Earth's Moon and then it will becomes known as the city of a thousand planets duh.

They should put the Iss in a massive museum Suspended from the ground! You would be able to climb in it with a rope system and have a tour:)
Just imagine seeing that, blazing through the sky☄
They should bring the ISS intact in BFR ships, it would be a tourist place for centuries that would generate a lot of money
You gotta give credits to the guy in space filming
I’m really sad about ISS going soon but then when he mentioned taking it down and the shuttle is the only thing that can I wave of happiness went over me because I am absolutely in love with the shuttles

Be so amazing to have it in one piece in a museum
1 month of quarantine: “I don’t even know what I’m watching anymore”
This comment stopped being funny after I saw it a hundred times
2:49 - 2:54: it's not right to use footage from the SpaceX landing blooper reel here. Those are attempted booster landings far from Point Nemo, and has nothing to do with Mir.
Lol yeah, I was watching and was like "wait, I've seen that footage before"
The big thing is that was an explosion, space junk falling to earth would most certainly not explode upon hitting the surface
They dun goof by implying that video was mir crashing in ocean. Nice try but they cant get away with that.
Bloopers = catastrophic failure
I mean I gotta give it to him Elon Musk is fucking amazing at marketing. Nobody else could pass that shit off as a playful little accident.
beautiful animations and stage settings; above all, the coverage of the ISS within some "frames". It only fails to agree on how fast the earth's surface passes and its size.
It’s about and football field and it orbits every 90 minutes. That’s common knowledge in the space community. If you not convinced it exist then get a telescope and see it for yourself
Kinda sad to see it end ..but this is such a teeny tiny jump into space exploration that il be happy to see the next come... makes me feel so empty to know that il be long dead and forgotten when people will be colonizing other planets , travelling thru spa e just like star trek we watched as children ... im so happy for the people who will be alive during that wonderous time full of amazing oportunities and amazing new akien life ..friends i hope

Wow . It's real . Great real images ffs
Why not create a new iss and send the old one on a journey to mars accompanied with drones and rovers to study or start building an environment on mars?
Lol!
This is by far the most autistic idea Iv heard.

Sidenote: I live in Titusville that’s the point where you go down to a restaurant and see a falcon 9 on 39 a I’ve witnessed atlas falcon 9 Vulcan I’m exited for and even got to go to the closest beach for falcon heavy but the space shuttle was something special space flight was part of my childhood which since I’m pretty much 14 it still is currently I’m focusing on private companies like Blue Origin and of course Space X I also have gotten pictures from less than 200 meters away of starship mark 2 sorry for the long test I just needed to speech

I hope that by then starship can use its cargo bays to retrieve as much of the station as possible, and have them re assembled on earth to make a giant museum.
Can we go to that ocean location to pick up parts and to see if there proof?
Yes
Yes you can. Since it is in international waters, anything you pick up will be yours and nobody will bother you.
@@zeendaniels5809 yes but if there is a large U.S. Naval force in the area the one with the bigger guns and weapons always wins.

Look up and see a 747 flying 6 miles up. You can just about see it right? Now make that 60 times smaller - not visible to the naked eye and you will struggle to see that size at 250 miles up. What telescope do you have?
So that whole ISS thing in Valerian was fake? The ISS won't become an intergalactic space hub for all species?
2:49 That's not the Mir Space Station going down, That was a SpaceX Booster failing to land onto the Drone ship, I've seen the video!
I want to see an epic grand finale. The whole thing deprbiting at once, crashing and burning up in the atmosphere as the whole thing is transmitted and livestreamed to earth, from multiple angles.
