UPDATE: You can now watch part 2 here ua-cam.com/video/umPqV2y7DY4/v-deo.html Fun fact: I started researching, writing, etc. this video roughly 5 months ago. After writing a 15 minute video script and shelving the video part way through the edit to work on another, I decided to release it in parts! Part 2 is way longer and more work intensive, so I may release another video in-between. Thank you to everyone supporting me by sharing, commenting, and joining the Patreon. It really does mean a lot and I'm trying to put out videos as often as I can with a full-time job. I read every comment and reply to nearly everyone, so I'll see you below!
Aasim, yeah I've only just started getting like $1 per day from this channel off ads. If I could do this full-time I'd have more than a video per month for sure.
Not sure how other people found you but I saw you commenting on a lot of edutainment videos (e.g. Vlogbrothers, Real Life Lore, Real Engineering etc). Keep up the good work in either case.
Consumers and producers are focused on efficiency, safety, and price. The concepts in this video are far from adoption and money from the markets is focused somewhere entirely else. That's the biggest hurdle. Look at the reasons why the Concord was comfortably retired by society. Bad safety and terrible efficiency which led to high prices killed consumer demand. *edit - this is explained in your next video, very good series!
Indeed, what I’m talking about here is unlikely to appear in commercial use for several decades. We’ll see it used by military much sooner. Thank you for the comment!
"That's a great question, and a convinient seque thanks for asking" lol. Love the amazing detailed explanations. Hot speedy planes sound neat. As they say "gotta go fast"
Good video, but if you don't mind some friendly criticism, I think you discarded rocket propulsion as an option very prematurely. Hypersonic flights will always be rather expensive, likely in the $10,000 dollar price range, so we can assume mass transport of hundreds of passengers is unlikely in the near future. Rather such vehicles will probably be small, perhaps carrying a few dozen passengers at once. At this scale, a small two stage, fully reusable rocket plane would be similar in mass to a large plane such as a Boeing 747, and could theoretically make the journey in under an hour instead of 3. This solves some of the material issues, as the periods of peak heat are short, would also provide passengers with 20 minutes of Zero-G, could be repurposed as a cargo vehicle for launching satellites, and rocket propulsion of large vehicles is already a proven technology. Unlike air-breathing engines capable of flight at mach 5+, which whilst under development are very much unproven at these scales. Of course the issue arises of safety and reliability, rockets are still far off the 99.9999% safety rates of airliners, but the option is still there. And it could be economically competitive according to some professional estimates and my own back of the envelope calculations.
Thank you! Yes, I'm trying to figure out the audio stuff still. This is after following some advice from a Skillshare class on editing voiceover audio. Part of the issue with this video is I recorded a couple of parts of this video at different times because the script changed and so I had a hard time making the levels match.
+1 subscriber and bell notification..I don't understand why you have so less subscribers while your content is just priceless.keep it up man. Love from India
This is so awesome! I didn't know people were advancing at this, aiming to make hypersonic flights commercial. It would be really cool to see that and all the more if they make them at accessible prices. Honestly my definition of rich is not needing to own a car but getting a taxi everywhere and my definition of very rich is getting flights whenever you want to wherever you want. Now imagine it's not just any flights but supersonic flights!
Trump just authorized one billion dollars for Lockheed -Martin to developed the hypersonic SR-72.China has the graphene-aluminum alloy fuselage,wings,tails and a graphene -titanium alloy-airframe like the C919.Typed Wang Zhenguo into your computer to find more information on China s scram jet engine.The University of Manchester and China developed a graphene- carbide that absorb radar signals and with stand temperatures of 3,000 degree celcius.
Dude, what about enhancing carbites with graphene? Not sure if it would be stable within carbites but if it could enhance them the way it enhances e.g. plastic that might help.
There are many states of matter.. Four of them are, solid, liquid, gas and plasma... There are two methods I know of of controlling the state of matter, temperature and pressure, there may be others... Objects move eight times faster through plasma than gas... Suggestion.. Coat the surface of a plane in an extremely cold substance and keep it at that temperature... Coat that extremely cold substance in plasma... The extremely cold substance prevents the plane burning up.. It cancels out the plasma to prevent the plane burning up... The layer of plasma around the plane converts the surrounding gas into plasma... So you basically cutting through the air with a plasma knife.. Its the exact same principle of canceling out hot with cold... Like using an ice compress when your sweating... Or using particle acceleration away from the craft, which would result in a surrounding vacuum envelope which is a much sharper knife because there's no resistance in a vacuum...
Well, what is the actual practical use of this? Being fast also always costs a lot of resources. Is the benefit of being one or two mach faster worth the effort?
As you can imagine the first use will be military. But also if and when it gets to average consumer, it could mean you could travel anywhere in the world in just a few hours. At the end of the day, though, it won’t be practical if we don’t figure out how to lower costs.

How to make flight faster ? You don t you just sleep and wake up when you land for me it worked for a 10 houres flight i slept 8-9 houres and was awake 1-2 houres.
I love your narrative style sir! Very good use of different kinds of footage! Would you mind giving me some feedback too? That way I can learn how to create better content myself. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this comment, I really appreciate it! Have a nice day!
Supersonic passenger planes are real fuel hogs, not green at all. The Concorde was a technical marvel that never made money. Air travel takes all day, travel to and from the airport , getting through security, and flight delays take two or three times the flight time. Even if the flight time were zero your whole day is shot. Why pay five or ten times as much for a ticket when your total travel time is only reduced by 10% or 20%.
This is a bit silly. There is a considerable possibility of hypersonic weapons, mostly because nobody seems to care what a weapon costs. But for commercial flights, and likely for any manned flight, hypersonics are unlikely. Even much slower supersonic transport could not establish economic viability. People’s time, even when highly valued, is simply not worth the cost of doing this. Further, as someone with training in the field, I consider it almost impossible to make this consistently safe, certainly never inherently safe. And the STS (shuttle) was never liked by engineers. It was a politicians project, it killed quite a few people, and the tile heat-shield system was laughed at by experts from as far back as the 1960’s. As these ambitious projects become more detached from the reality of what can be achieved, people who perhaps stand to benefit if they are undertaken seem to be making more and more noise.
You don’t think it will *ever* happen? I’m not exactly holding out hope that we’ll have hypersonic commercial flights in the next 30 years, but certainly if humans don’t all kill each other first we’ll get there eventually.
Actually that footage is from NASA’s LASRE (Linear Aerospike SR-71 Experiment) test, they attached that pod to the back to test the aerodynamics of a reusable launch vehicle’s engine. When the SR-71 was retired, a couple were given to NASA to perform experiments such as this one.
Very doubtful they cannot even make a supersonic airliner currently and yet the concorde flew for many years they don't want a fast airliner just a cheap slow one with large passenger capacity

I had no idea you were also working full time. My respect goes to you

I completely missed this in my subscription feed! I didn't realise how interested I was in hypersonic aircrafts until now! Great video!
Gotta hit that notification bell 😉And yeah hypersonic flight is really fascinating because it brings up so many unique challenges simultaneously.
Not sure how other people found you but I saw you commenting on a lot of edutainment videos (e.g. Vlogbrothers, Real Life Lore, Real Engineering etc). Keep up the good work in either case.
Tenacious Dean yup, I’m a nerd! And thanks!
I HOPE THIS CHANNEL GROWS, cuz this is good. Really great commentary and editing
Thanks so much!
@@FutureNow no problem, dont give up, u will grow believe me
@@FutureNow ur like Wendover Productions and Half As Interesting. I like you
Keep going man, once you get that verified mark you'll go supersonic
Thank ya 🙏

Great video however you should balance your audio better but I know you don’t have the resources of the bigger channels

dude u grew fast :o fuck me I wasnt actively watching for a few months only XD Nice!!!!
Ha yeah, well one of my videos blew up and brought me a lot of new subscribers.
nice, I hope you are going to make a lot of those videos !
Doing my best! Thanks 🙏

We have similar definitions of rich haha
Nice :D
Glad you didn't scrap this one its pretty awesome!
Thanks, man! It wasn’t so much going to be scrapped as just put out months later.
Good job, keep it up.
Thanks!

What a fantastic channel. I had forgotten i was subbed but I am super happy i did! Really interesting stuff man!
Thank you! Sorry about the slow upload schedule.

Don't forget me when your channel grows
I’ll try but tbh I forget the names of people I’ve had several conversations with in person.
FutureNow That's alright. Appreciate the honesty.
Hey plz do a video on suborbital travel and how does it compares to hypersonic travel
Subscribed... loved the content

I only made it to the end becausr I was in the shower. Jokes aside I hope this channel blows up. It's got a very high production value
😂 sorry no pass, you still gotta hit like. but dry your hands first. And thanks!
@@FutureNow Done
"Until next time I'll see you in the future."
*Dramatically whips phone out of pocket and holds it up* "I'LL SEE YOU IN THE PAST!" *Taps screen and dissapears*.
This is some quality content dude, keep it up! You deserve more subs.
Thank you!
+FutureNow could you make a video about how the economy deteriorated throughout the 20th and 21st century?
any idea on the typical altitude a hypersonic plane would go to ..or for that matter a HGV ?
Nice. Keep'em going mate!
Thank you, that's the plan!
Finally!
😆
Could you please make a video about how the economy deteriorated throughout the 20th and 21st century. I think it would be an awesome video!
here before 10k subscribers
👋🏽
Subbed!
Thanks!
1:05 that’s terffiring. BTW, no dislikes!
That footage is actually of a very big RC airplane, so you didn't just witness someone's horrifying death.
How to make flight faster ?
You don t you just sleep and wake up when you land for me it worked for a 10 houres flight i slept 8-9 houres and was awake 1-2 houres.

What software are you using to animate at 1:30?
Adobe After Effects
@@FutureNow Thank you very much :)
0:30 is that an air brake on the SR-71?

Oh cool. We learn something new every day, I guess

Answer is inconel.
What is the song name?
"Trips" by Topher Mohr and Alex Elena
If I wanted to hear music, I would click on a music video.
Here because of half as interesting
You sound like Wendover Productions
It’s uncanny...
I don’t think I actually *sound* like Sam, do I?
Not exactly but close
Nope, just listened to his video again and you sound nothing like him XD
You just reminded me of him
Ha! Didn’t think so. I think he probably has a better narration voice than me (but that’s a low bar).
FutureNow, nah I think both of you are great!
Don't suck people out in mid air please we are going good for now
My country's flag breaking :(
Hypersonic is made by the Chinese
Yes, I talked about the Chinese hypersonic tech in part 2 of this video.
