Starliner is like the Hotel California ... "you can never leave!"
Stalliner is such a good pun
I cracked a loud laugh at it too! I thought it was a video by Isaac Arthur, at first... 😂😂
Thank you for your hard work and your amazing content that keeps me updated on such amazing things in our universe. You should have millions of subscribers yet the majority of people unfortunately watch content that doesn't expand their knowledge. I'm truly thankful for content creators like yourself!
Mars tilapia should be called Fish Gordon.
When even Fraser starts ruthlessly mocking your spacecraft, you know you've messed up.
I'm mildly, politely mocking it.
I'm a trained aquaponics expert. Specifically to take that skill set to Mars.
The Giant Red Spot is ever changing. Most people tend to believe it's a constant image. They forget that it's a storm. Storms increase or decrease according to what's feeding it.
Fish poop for soil makes sense. We use fish emulsion for soil to grow plants (like roses).
Hubble is getting old. With the James Webb telescope giving such gorgeous pictures (I use the Pillars of Creation for my wallpaper), the Hubble has become obsolete in comparison.
Cool info/updates. Thanks for the video.👍 I wish I could donate, but after the cancer, it forced me to retire at 65 (66 in July) and left me financially ruined and regrouping. But thanks again for your cool videos. Always a joy
"Hubble is getting old. With the James Webb telescope giving such gorgeous pictures (I use the Pillars of Creation for my wallpaper), the Hubble has become obsolete in comparison."
I refuse to accept that being 40 years of age means "old". And just because there is some GenZ available who grew up with smartphones doesn't mean you become "obsolete" in your job. 😁
@@eugenebelford9087 I'm 66 next month. I'm old. Hubble is down to 1 gyro. It's wearing out. It's pictures are obsolete compared to what the James Webb can do. You felt it necessary to copy and paste my post? Why are you making this an issue? James Webb can see through gaseous clouds, Hubble can't. James Webb has a greater, more superior lens. It can see farther than Hubble can. It is able to use different lenses to see the stars in a different light with the ultraviolet rays and so forth. Hey, Hubble was great in it's time, but it is nearing the end of it's lifespan.
@@davidt.6666 Ehm, the "😁" should have given away that I was just joking (sort of 'feigned outrage' against the 'worship of youth' by someone who isn't young anymore [by which I mean myself!]). Sorry.
@@eugenebelford9087 No worries.
Loved the zoom in on each of the astronomy topics. Reminded me how distant and far back in time our observations can be.
That space junk news item is so so cool. It’s not just a great photo of a fast-moving thing, it’s a picture of hope for a cleaner future.
New business model, deorbit the junk, send the owner a bill.
The great red spot has always fascinated me.
Oddly not mentioned, that it's infamous for growing and shrinking.
Me too, but then I realized it was just a drop of pizza sauce on my pants.
@@hermeticxhaote4723 I have a big red spot on my ass... 😁
The amount of detail in Fraser’s beard is beyond compare.
Thanks for a great presentation xxx
I don't know what model camera you're using, but your face is in such crystal clear focus and the details are amazing.
Thanks for all the news, Fraser! 😊
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
You are quickly becoming my favorite UA-cam channel!
Thanks so much for creating and sharing this informative video. Keep it up!
All of these explanations for galactic phenomenon are interesting. Now let's count down the years until new observations are made and new, different explanations are made for the same phenomenon. 🙂
So what will they feed the tilapia? Rather than haul the fish food to feed the tilapia, raise food for the tilapia...algae? What to fertilize the algae with? Tilapia waste? Rather circular. Wouldn't aquaponics introduce a lot of failure points to an already complicated system with lots of moving parts?
I saw few years ago article how hydroponics and ichtioponics are mutually beneficial. Basically you feed fish with things that are waste from hydroponics. It's not enclosed system, but it is way more efficient than hydroponics only.
Concerning perchlorates, they are soluble in water and can be refined to be the oxidizer in solid rocket fuels. Using something like a Soxhlet extractor can minimize water use during this process
Amazingly great update.
Love your Space News Fraser!
Good episode, nice pictures of the crab nebula
looks like a plasma.... forbidden by gatekeepers of 'astronomy' or should be called astroglogy?
People were calling it "scrubliner" for years b/c it would never take off. Now that it's in space it can't come back.
The starliner saga is starting to look like Challenger's. Not that bad because the Challenger even was practically manslaughter. Nasa should return the capsule in automatic mode and leave the astronauts in the Internation space station until Dragon can go for them. It will be extra money but we are talking about lives. Again, NASA should talk to Space X to build a couple more dragons to avoid overutilization and to preclude Space X from forgetting how to build them.
Yep, totally have a one source provider, no way that could get abused.
Shall we go back to telephone monopolies too?
How about using old starlink satellites to de-orbit space junk. Just add that capability to the starlinks. Also, have a bounty on space junk to make it worthwhile.
9:40 "I'm picking out a thermos for you"🎶
Great show 🎉
I don't want to say you've put out a lot of videos this week, - but I will say I have seen quite a few of your most recent videos just this week alone.
*Question:
How do you do it? Your team must be amazing
The team is amazing. :-)
I'm calling it TRASHliner from now on.
Hnestly, I am stunned that StarLiner was allowed to fly, and I am also shocked that Boeing is still allowed to keep going in the space industry.
Thank you.
When a Chinese customer is checking out an EV to buy, he/she always checks the built-in selfie taking quality.
thanks man
Merci!
Some of my nearest colleagues are working on the fission-driven rocket, forgetting the name. This one with the ion engine is pretty cool too and would fit our expertise even better. I was familiar with ramjets and the concept to whip the air so that thrust wins over air resistance, but never occurred to me that this would be a viable operating space. I guess it is. Very nice.
Imagine an advanced civilization, with faster than light spacecraft, discovering our earliest radio frequency transmissions. They could learn everything about us on their way here.
They will think we talk very strange and we where listening to Charleston
How would they receive signals that they're moving faster than and even at light speed would be blue shifted beyond gamma radiation from their perspective?
@@Wurtoz9643 Yes, I saw Contact.
@@Wurtoz9643 we´ve all seen contact...
@@Wurtoz9643 Aren't you talking about the 1936 Olympics? The 1940 Olympics were going to be held in Tokyo, but were transferred to Helsinki, then cancelled. The 1944 Olympics were cancelled. The 1948 games were in London.
Interesting thank you.
hi fraser !! well done for your wonderful job !! talking about jupiter do we know more about the volumic mass of the nucleus ? thanks for answering !
wow, the china lander is actually not designed to be top heavy with a too small base? what a concept. seems like a better idea than putting some crappy legs on a server rack and shooting it at the moon.
Hold my beer! I'll build your spaceship!
Awesome
I read an item which claims that when satellites burn up on reentry the effect of the aluminium vaporising damages the ozone layer and
that the expected redundant starlink etc constellations would cause significant long term problems when retired. This would obviously
be exacerbated by any space junk clean up in the future. Any thoughts? BTW thanks for the outstanding content. Im hooked.
I worry about this too, so I googled it and found: "All things considered, says meteor specialist Peter Brown (University of Western Ontario), roughly 40,000 metric tons of interplanetary matter strike Earth's atmosphere every year." I don't know how much space debris there is, and if it is significant compared to this natural influx. @frasercain could be an interesting topic if you haven't covered it already?
We've only managed to put 9300 tons into space over our entire space career and aluminum is a large constituent of space rocks that are raining down, so no significance.
@@filonin2 thanks for the reassurance! I did some more googling, and found question 88 on space stackexchange. Numbers there suggest around 15,000 tons in total. It also mentions Musk's 2022-02-11 Starship Update where he projects launching 15,000 tons per year with 3 launches per week. That sounds a tad optimistic to me, but even then most of that will either stay in orbit for a long time, or leave earth orbit altogether.
The crab nebula has a pulsar in the center, not a black hole. It spins 33 times per second, I believe.
Many YT channels won't stop singing Starliner's requiem, I assume each of them successfully launched and returned a space capsule...
I would say that this flake is well deserved. Competitor is cheaper, got much less valuable contract, yet it's flying for last few years. And Boeing was picked as "safe and reliable contractor". Don't forget that it isn't and wasn't only alternative for dragon. That contract if would be granted to Sierra, would probably allow them to speed up development and NASA would had dreamchaser operational till now.
Sorry not sorry. I still remember Boeing CEO commenting on SpaceX something like : " if humanity will reach another planet, it will be on Boeing rocket"... ( Don't remember exactly, it was few years)
Edit. found exact quote: 2016:
'I'm convinced the first person to step foot on Mars will arrive there riding a Boeing rocket,' said Mr Muilenburg at a conference in Chicago, reports Bloomberg.
Boeing's problems are so tragic. I hope the company can sort itself out and return to excellence.
Dang, I hoped the quasars would shed some light on the final parsec problem. Still cool to see it tho!
I find DACs and metallic hydrogen fascinating. Which astronomers say is near the core of jupiter. I think it's was an astronomer that moved on after saying such thinking 'they won't find out until I am long dead.
nice
Can you imagine how embarrassing it's going to be for Boeing when their test astronauts have to be brought back down on a crew dragon?
Stalliner 2: Stall Harder.
Will you do the deep dive into the galactic flat rotation curve paper? This could be big if true and verified. I've seen some people just say we have to expand the sphere/halo of dark matter ("just add another epicycle" 😅) around galaxies, but that simple fix requires expanding it by a factor of @7,000by volume. The whole dark matter solution is beginning to strain credulity. What do you think? Is this for real?
4:00 is this also the 1st time we're seeing a galaxy kill all of it's internal life forms, Mr Fermi?
Boeing likes a lot of parts in the things they make.
I would like to know why Jupiter has bands and ripples of colour in its atmosphere. Why don't they just all meld together into a homogeneous gas? You could put this in your next question show.
You know what they say, if you love something let it go and if it comes back it was meant to be .
Boeing Starliner return dates:
2024-06-16 canceled
2024-06-22 canceled
2024-06-26 canceled
Now they're talking early july ... It'll get interesting wehen they're getting close to the 45 day expiration date ...
Frequency=1/T the secret to time travel.
Do you think the most probable/ most common multi-"planetary" life would be in a system of multiple (habitable to them) moons around a large planet? Rather than a society populating several actual planets or even star systems being more common?
Just imagine the shade, if this starliner fail had been a Soyuz.
I think there is plenty of shade for starliner. I dont think anyone thinks that starliner is as reliable as soyuz. starliner is roomier but way less reliable way more expensive.
What are you planning to feed the Tilapia? Poop happens if you feed them regular.
I betcha SpaceX will have to come rescue the Starliner mission ;)
Question: In regard to the quasar merger. If the merger takes a billion years and we assume expansion continues to accelerate, would we actually ever see it, or would it expand out of our sight cone first? Thanks for yet another great show. Boeing... facepalm?
I thought they were going to use the dead fish as fertilizer I thought that's what Mr cain was going to say
It's not cursed - it's Boeing!

So the drawing of the red spot is on the top. Was he looking at it upside down? or did you have the image upside down?
Or was that a different spot seen all the way back in the 1600s?
The spot moves, like any storm.
Optics was also a lot more primitive, images may be inverted in some telescopes, not in others, all lenses were hand ground and hence, quality was variable to put it kindly.
What we give to children as a toy today far outclasses many of those ancient telescopes!
Now, oddly unmentioned, the Red Spot is infamous for growing and shrinking, with predictions that it'll disappear soon being made for longer than I've been alive (I was born a week after Tsar Bomba was detonated, so I've been around for a few weeks or so). There is only one constant with any Jovian storm - change.
Hell, I remember predictions of the Red Spot merging with, it's gonna merge, it's merg - erm, it missed! Enough said, we're still learning the science and math behind Jupiter and well, I'm being quite generous in that statement, as we're still discovering new phases of water that can be found under Jovian conditions - including novel phases of ice that are believed to be present in the earth's mantle.
Yes, I said ice in the mantle. Pressure takes our STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) handbook and tosses it out the window.
@@spvillano "I was born a week after Tsar Bomba was detonated" 😳 Did it give you any Superpowers?!? Spidey sense? or X-Ray vision? 🤣
It kinda depends which hemisphere your in.
Old astronomical refractor telescopes (with lenses, not mirrors) had an inverted image because of the optics, astronomers would draw what they saw
12:44 If everything was just fine with Starliner, why delay 3 times? This doesn’t pass the smell test 🦨… something‘s up
4:01 well good for her. im demolishin my meal like a racoon, good to know there's still entities with good manners in this universe
Boeing has unfortunately had issues with this initial design. Can't wait to see what's in board for future models.
Doubtful. Boeing is on minus 1.5 bln. It's already told that it wouldn't get into next fixed price contracts, but only "cost+". Probably they will try to achieve necessary minimum to avoid fines from breaking contract and will leave that project. Competition, like Sierra or SpaceX feels lot better with fixed price
@just_archan true, my thought is either way they have to fulfill the contracts they have or pay out billions.
And once they achieved the contracts fulfillment they will have achieved the proof of concept, and that's where they get into the positive as they could then use that experience in production for lower cost re-entry.
Having the starliner drop pods is cost effective. And in the long run will lead to escape pods on larger ships.
@@NicholasNerios tbh o don't have faith in Boeing at all. I don't think that engineers are stupid (I am not thunderf00t), but I think it is the way how is management organised. They were organised around "cost +" efficiency. That mean: that are designed to generate costs. That's mean plenty of subdepartments, paperwork, managers and subcontractors. Workflow organised in a way that is extremely in-efficient. I am really not optimistic if they can change. Management and bureaucracy is on every company hardest to change. And it isn't that starliner is only project that have. Only on SLS that are making mint for company. Will Boeing be able to become effective one day? Maybe. But not with starliner, and not before SLS and other major contracts are cancelled/fulfilled. There is no incentive for that. And new gen of competition is just around corner and will basically overtake that business. SpaceX imho is considered by Boeing more like exemption than model to follow. And I don't think that management is treating SpaceX Starship seriously.
I am sure that Sierra, Rocketlab, Relativity, Firefly or Stoke is invisible for upper management of Boeing.
no way in hell I would ride reentry on starship, going in for a landing on ground? jeez, zero confidence.
11:21 "What a piece of junk" Luke Skywalker
"all hail the algorithm" bump!
"To be or not to be", is it "easier" for Universe exist or not to exist ??
It'll be good to see and study other countries' satellite technology up close. May be they'll make some modifications while they're at it 😈
Or maybe it HAS been the GSR all along, and it just grows and shrinks, and was just very small for those 100 years when it was “missing”.
08:15 I am surprised they have only just come up with the "radically new concept" of the reversible heat pump, which has been a common domestic appliance for years. Or am I missing something?
In space.
Is it possibly the same spot that may be contracting and expanding in cycles.
It's called the Octo valve and it was invented by Tesla
I guess i have to write an article on perchlorates. They are not evil, just misunderstood 😂
And fish poop water is of course a good radiation shield.
I'm typing this on June 25. So... when is SpaceX Crew Dragon going to be sent up to rescue the Boeing astronauts?
That great Red spot will be the New moon for Jupiter as it reaches the equator and poop itself out. It will take billions of years but it will happen.🎉
See the algorithm, be the algorithm. 😂
Fish and Chickens would be a great live stock to use on Mars. You can feed Chickens bugs, worms fish bone meal, leftover food from the Astronauts, greens, ect.
The Chicken poop is great food for the fish if left in a holding pond and treated with special bacteria and enzymes.
This would all need to be in it's own self contained "farming" habitat away from people's living and working quarters.
Personally, I could live off of fish, chicken, eggs, greens, vegetables, herbs and spices indefinably if needed. All of which should be producible if we can build large enough self contained habitats.
Chickens, well we'd need those worms and bugs and one problematic word: ammonia from that poop. Not a good word for an enclosed habitat.
Fish, yep, go ahead and build a balanced ecosystem that'll process CO2, waste products, recycle nitrogen, emit oxygen, process volatile organics, basically a Goobered down version of a real ecosystem. Hell, we've been doing much of that already for around 5000 years.
But, with chicken poop's ammonia output from its decomposition, we'd really need some major wrangling to not poison the habitat's air supply. Go to a poultry farm's barn some time and muck it out, you'll get a hint. I've literally no sense of smell and can pick up the ammonia easily!
Will chickens be able to fly in the lower gravity?
@@spvillano we have ten or so backyard chickens. cleaning out their coop is already a breathtaking experience :)
I have about 80 backyard chickens.
If you keep their litter dry, there is minimal ammonia release.
Their poop is only dangerous when wet.
Chicken poop would be vital for fertilizer in an aquaponics garden where those harmful fumes become a resource.
I didn't think about chickens being able to fly in 1/3 gravity 🤔 they probably would be able to fly on mars.
we should have satellites that permanently orbit Jupiter and study it
Radiation is a limiter out there. For the big 4 moons, there are no stable orbits around them, so fuel is also a limiter.
Yay
👍👍👍
❤❤❤❤
If we tried to live at the bottom of the ocean, it would be easier for us to create bases on the moon and Mars
It's not the same. Even life support system is dealing with completely different challenges.
Another issue is a goal. With different planets we will have access to resources of this another world. We already have access to riches of oceans without "colonies". And also exploatation of oceans is hard on biosphere and environment. On moon pollution really doesn't matter. There is no biosphere to influence, and waste products will not be as different as just another moon rock from perspective of practicality. No matter how toxic they would be.
Long term goals.
The Chinese lander looks remarkably like a de-skinned LM.
Boeing should have to pay for their test crew to return home in a Dragon capsule, and theirs should return carrying their weight in garbage and human waste.
I’m terrified for those two astronauts in star liner
They're not in the starliner, they're inside of the ISS. How terrifying!
@@spvillano I know that im thinking about the return trip
As the experts said, before SpaceX won the new space race, let Boeing do it. But now the phrase should be "Let SpaceX do it".
Why Red Square nebula photos are so rare?
What is talapia fed and where will it come from on Mars?
Fraser, do gravitational waves experience red shift the way EM does?
Yep
How do you get fish to Mars. Cryofisheggs, transparent aluminum?
So do You think that the Astroscale Satellite could be used to get photos of the BLACK-KNIGHT Satellite ?
Sure, if it exists. But there's no evidence that it does.
It's spelled AD... Anno Domini. The year is XXXX AD sir. Just to help ya there.
"stuck liner": great, another joke I'll be giggling about without getting able to explain to my colleagues
hahahaha OMG
