    I was interested to hear that antimatter can be collected. That is good. Unfortunately he overlooks one problem. He complains about the safety of fission reactors, but ignores the worse safety problem with antimatter. If you have a containment failure, you don't have to worry about radiation, because you and your space ship rapidly become an expanding ball of plasma. All that beautiful energy you were going to use to travel will be released at the smallest containment failure. The explosion from the initial contact between matter and antimatter will destroy the containment field guaranteeing total failure.

      To be fair, a failure of the fuel containment system is a death sentence in any case when it comes to space travel. Even with regular rocket fuel you get stranded in the middle of nowhere, because you will overshoot your target without enough fuel for backburning or your ships just blows up.

      I like Johns point, but let's not forget that we can't make an omelette without a few cracked eggs. If humanity is to reach for the stars, we must expect a few failures on the way.
      Surely, we can find a way to make this even safer, by making a ship that can detach itself from the engine and in that way, ensure survive ability for the crew.
      No one said it would be easy, but if we want to get anywhere we must do so trough trial and error.
      Human loss, is of course sad, but it haven't stopped us from still trying.

      Your points are fair, but I will make the following point. It was stated that fission can achieve comparable delta V. It tends to have partial/slow failures so you have a chance to attempt a fix. It it can still be fatal, but I like the idea that there is some chance to recover from a temporary failure in the power supply.

      Unlikely since energy payload rocket would use would be similar to current use, perhaps even smaller since you would not need extra fuel to carry large tanks of fuel, so resulting explosion in case of breach would be much smaller than nuke.
      Yes compared to rocket fuel explosion, it would give off also radiation wave, but as far as I know there would be no radiation waste, so not much in practical difference.

    Honestly fusion and antimatter are on even playing fields for space travel. Both require using vast amounts of power just to run, both produce ludicrous amounts of radiation, and both would require exotic cooling for them. The difference is on a fusion reactor you can turn it off, for antimatter, even when it isn't firing, you still have to use electricity to not annihilate all your fuel. So in this regard, I'd actually say fusion reactors make vastly more sense than antimatter as it also still has the same issue with getting equal energy put in as gotten out (both require magnetic confinement for the fuel). Antimatter is even worse if gotten from particle accelerators making it more just a battery.

      Good point. antimatter, except for the very small amount that can be found in orbit, is a battery and not an energy source. You will need to manufacture it, while you can find deuterium as a fuel for fusion anywhere in the universe. Very large anti mater manufacturing plants are a possibility, but they would be very expensive, possibly negating the gins. and for the moment the fabrication of anti-matter is very inefficient, with an efficiency that is 1% or less. So your plants would have to be 100 times larger than what gets stored in the anti matter. not very cost effective.

    I agree with Michio Kaku that antimatter propulsion will never happen. For some reason people dont know about the one realistic method. If a ship travels at a constant 1g acceleration rate it would get to Alpha Centauri in 3.6 ship/7.3 Earth years (and that includes turning the ship around half way and decelerating). The ship would achieve about .95 light speed after about 1 year. A 10 ton ship would need a mere 10 tons of continuous thrust. Not only is this by far the fastest way we can get to other worlds but the ship would have gravity the whole way which will allow farming.
    All thats needed for this is a fission rocket that can put out thrust for long periods and does not consume hydrogen or xenon (you cant bring 500 tons of that with you). 1 kg of uranium has the same energy as 120,000 tons of coal and plutonium has a lot more than that. A 10 ton ship would use less than 1 pound of uranium to get to the Centauri system.
    Uranium and plutonium are jittery atoms, there should be a way to get them to fission in a linear fashion, see "best method for interstellar travel". A fission rocket should be simpler than a chemical rocket.
    It will be the new safest way to travel. Due to relativistic effects the ship will only have a weak interaction with regular mass during the high velocity portion of the trip. The front of the ship should be an asteroid or at least armor plate. The ship would be at maximum velocity in the voids between systems were the chances of significant mass being in the flight path would be astronomically low. It would also need a powerful radar (RF emissions will travel at light speed regardless of the ships velocity). Interstellar radiation is not a problem either, a couple feet of asteroid dirt (and perhaps graphite and/or lead) will keep it out.
    With this method a ship can span the entire diameter of our galaxy in 24 ship/113,000 Earth years. Systems with stars similar to the sun can be reached in under 10 years. The human race can be interstellar in our generation.

Not to mention storing enough antimatter at low temperatures is difficult under the best circumstances.

    Could also have a magnetic confinement afterburner to fuze the leftover deuterium after the antiprotium-hydrogen heats it up. Or if in a toroidal form, could use antiprotons to turn the alpha particles in helium plasma into tritions, making a fusion equivalent of a breeder reactor. Alternatively, lithium isotope ions can decay into tritions and helium.
    Also since the hydrogen and superconductors required for the confinement fields need to be near 2kelvins, muon catalyzed fusion could be utilized for extra electrical energy, along with the more traditional photovoltaics and such.
    Liquid metalic hydrogen could serve as a coolant, a fuel, and a ferrofluid rotating around the confinement field, generating its own magnetic field in the process. The protium isotope is predicted to be superfluid and superconductor around that temperature as well, further increasing efficiency in its metalic form. If liquid metalic hydrogen can be used, then it could also generate more electrical power as it could form a flow battery prior to the antihydrogen-hydrogen reaction, while also storing energy in its magnetic fields.

      Aditionally, it could also use a mini fast fission breeder reactor to aide with elecrical power and supply nuetrons to the hydrogen to increase deuterium yields. And, useing a giant railgun to launch would save a lot of fuel. That way most of the fuel could be used for the return trips instead. And replacing most of the tungtsten with LAC or polycumulene (i think this channel calls it carbene?), inside carbon nanotubes or other carbon structured composites that might better withstand the extreme tempuratures and stresses caused by them. I was also unaware that it could be feasible to collect pre-existing antiprotons rather produce them with synchrotron style accelerators. If that is the case, there should be more research into how to collect and store what antimatter we may already have access to. They confirmed a probably habitable planet near alpha centauri recently as well, according to pbs spacetime. I realize i wont see this stuff happen in my lifetime but my imagination cannot help but be inspired.

    To be fair to Fusion, there are still quite substantial advances occurring in magnetic field strength, needed reactor size and magnet weight. So in that sense ITER is already getting overtaken and soon enough obsolete in its magnetic technology and much better can be soon made, like the MIT magnet demonstration.
    So I guess we'll see how it goes as Fusion shrinks down its weight requirements, while antimatter works on its production, collection and storage issues.

    Reaching high speeds quickly is great and all, but I can't help but bring up a few issues.
    1) a high top speed is one thing, but one must also consider the acceleration necessary to reach those speeds in a timely fashion. Most untrained humans can only take something like 6 to 7 Gs of sustained force without running into health issues, so that rules out the sorts of accelerations that would be needed to reach Mars in a matter of hours or Alpha Centauri in only a couple years. You would have to go slower because of human biology.
    2) how would you slow back down again? almost all terrestrial aircraft use wind resistance to slow down, but you can't do that in space. You'd have to have a craft equipped with forward brake thrusters, which is fine, the only problem being that deceleration takes time just like acceleration. So that would be another barrier on the average speed of a mission due to human biology, not technological capability.

    • @theobserver9131
      @theobserver9131 2 роки тому +3

      He did address the limits of human tolerance for G forces, and how you decelerate is by turning the craft around and facing the other way. Accelerate for half the trip, turn around and decelerate for the other half of the trip. All at one G when transporting human passengers.

    The propulsion system for my spacecraft part 6 part 1: Creating magnetic wormholes with Synthetic Dyonic fields - Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators:
    The synthetic Dyon propelled spaceship is also equipped with 2 almost identical equally sized parallel “Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators” that are used for creating Negative mass to keep the throat open of a Magnetic wormhole that has been made of magnetic spikes to reduce the speed of light in and around the Synthetic Dyon propelled Spacecraft by causing the electron to be moved out of dimension, because the linear mass is lower, Planck's constant, equal to the Planck mass times the Planck wavelength times the speed of light, is reduced to a large extent.
    The process of moving the atom in and out of dimension using the Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators” has the ability to create cold-welded crystals, new types of materials and new ways to cold solder one disparate material to another. Cold-welded crystals can also be used to create crystal rotors. Cold-welded crystals can also be used to create Negative Mass similar to frozen Rubidium atoms that contribute to creating Negative mass for a Superfluid. Exciton-Polaritons can also be created for Negative Mass and used to create a Polariton Superfluid.
    The magnetic wormhole opens up an interdimensional connection to hyperspace having a synthetic magnetic monopole while causing a radial magnetic field to be created. The consequence of producing this changing synthetic magnetic monopole field crossed with a changing electric field can produce a toroidal synthetic Dyonic flux around the circular hull of the spacecraft.
    Creating a synthetic Dyonic field over the hull of the spacecraft causes a space-time curvature Gzz to be produced over the hull of the spacecraft that creates a tension or lift force that contributes to the ascending and hovering or descending of the spacecraft.
    Negative energy density cools instead of heats things up and the creation of Negative energy density can be used to create refrigeration systems.
    Creating Negative energy density can be used to make power supplies with a differential space-time curvature on the ends of a carbon electrode that can create a differential voltage similar to a regular chemical battery.
    Both “Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators” also consist of two solenoids wound with a common wire in opposite directions on two separate toroidal curved-sheet transformer laminates of differing radii.
    The smaller solenoid is mounted along the centerline of the larger solenoid.
    The geometrical arrangement of two solenoids wound with a common wire in opposite directions on two separate toroidal curved-sheet transformer laminates of differing radii with the smaller solenoid being mounted along the centerline of the larger solenoid produces linear bucking electric fields along the centerline of the coils according to the electromagnetic equations of James Clark Maxwell.
    Both solenoids of the 2 Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators can have wires that are made from Holmium titanate crystals of Spin Ice wrapped around them to create synthetic Magnetic charges as a desired alternative to electric charges.
    The magnetic flux travels within the laminations at a curvature equal to the inverse of the radius squared, each coil produces a spring constant that depends on the current, lamination area, magnetic field strength and the individual curvature of each coil.
    The Magnetic flux travels in opposite directions in each solenoid, the spring constant of the outer coil is positive, and the spring constant of the inner coil is negative. These two spring constants, one positive and one negative, add in parallel to create a negative spring constant for the Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generator. Because the frequency of resonance is equal to the square root of the negative spring constant divided by the negative mass, the resonant frequency is positive real.
    The process of creating and keeping open the wormhole allows low-density hyperspace energy to enter our dimension. Because the linear mass is lower, Planck's constant, equal to the Planck mass times the Planck wavelength times the speed of light, is reduced to such an extent that the electron is moved out of dimension. Because the electron and proton are one and the same particle, when considering a path through space and hyperspace, the proton is also moved out of dimension. Thus this process of moving the atom in and out of dimension using the “Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generator has the ability to create cold-welded crystals, new types of materials and new ways to cold solder one disparate material to another.
    High relativistic electromagnetic fields can be created because the velocity of light has been reduced considerably.
    As a consequence of said process, refrigeration systems can be created because negative energy cools rather than heats.
    The creation of Negative energy can be used to make power supplies with a differential space-time curvature on the ends of a carbon electrode that can create a differential voltage similar to a regular chemical battery.
    A Metamaterial magnetic wormhole is a type of synthetic Magnetic monopole.
    A Metamaterial magnetic wormhole can be used to transport Magnetic fields across long distances in space.
    A Metamaterial magnetic wormhole can be used to improve Magnetic resonance imaging scanning that can also be used in the surgery of a doctor’s patients.
    The process of creating synthetic Dyonic fields with Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators can contribute to the creation of folding space waveguides becoming a reality whereby hyperspace energy, that has a low spring constant, can be easily folded and curved using powerful, relativistic synthetic Dyonic fields. The synthetic Dyonic propelled Spacecraft can be teleported out-of-dimension over huge distances measured in terms of light-years by using the synthetic Dyonic fields to create a magnetic wormhole along the desired direction of travel for the synthetic Dyonic propelled Spacecraft.
    Each of the 2 Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators also consist of 3d printed rectangular shaped transformer laminations that have toroidal coils of different length wrapped around them.
    The rectangular transformer laminations are also made of layers of magnetic metamaterials such as Kagome spin ice crystals and also Holmium titanate spin ice crystals and also Pyrochlore spin ice crystals for the purpose of allowing both attractive synthetic Magnetic charges that are made from synthetic Magnetic monopoles to be combined with repulsive electric charges so that synthetic Dyonic fields can equally flow through both of the 2 Metamaterial Magnetic vortex wormhole-synthetic Monopole generators.

      Honestly think this was one of his least researched videos yet. His main comparisons being fusion and fission both being completely improperly explained in the process. Enriched reactor grade uranium is not weapons grade uranium, in fact it's as far from weapons grade as could be. Antimatter also has the same issues as fusion today. Both have the issue with getting more energy out than what we put in. Antimatter needs to be held and manipulated with magnetic fields which is the same issue we have with fusion in that it means you need energy to get the energy we want.
      The reason fusion reactors right now are so big is that product scale raises the ability to make surplus energy and it gives more space for more powerful magnets. We can also use compressed fusion like general fusion for smaller scales though and we now have developed magnets 40 times stronger than even what ITER was designed with in mind. So making a much smaller reactor is possible now and should get better with time.
      But the main issue with antimatter is cost to get it. Particle accelerators are far too costly to get it and sending pods into space just to collect it is incredibly wasteful. The project needs to be cost effective to conventional rockets, being faster doesn't make it more profitable. Maglevs are vastly faster than normal rail, but China, the nation with the most maglevs has had struggles getting people to take it as normal rail is about 4 times cheaper. This would only make sense if we were actually considering going interstellar.

    The thing is if you can collect antimatter... why make a propulsion/combustion style engine? By the time we have the technology to capture it, and utilize it a exotic propulsion system could probably be developed. I feel like this could never work with the magnetic nozzle in space - If antimatter reacts with anything passing through that nozzle it would blow the spaceship apart. Not to mention travelling at those velocities even with a physical shield. If the ship were to hit a object at those velocities it would destroy the entire ship. At this point the ship needs a gravity/magnetic shield so you might as well develop a gravity propulsion system with anti matter being the fuel. Combustion engines are at an end at this point in history. Nuclear is probably the most optimal/logical choice if it can be clean enough.
