- Опубліковано 19 гру 2018
- If humans want to expand into space, it will take us incredible amounts of energy. How do we do that? Easy: we will just use the sun’s energy by realizing the most ambitious construction project in history. This is how it works.

Why is there only so little likes
Are you a scientist.also why arent we creating the railgun thingy now?
i like the type of style you did with the video
"did you do it?"
"Yes"
"What did it cost?"
"Mercury"
Earth: Mercury may die, but it's a sacrifice... _I_ am willing to make.
WHAT DID YOU DO TO MERCURY
I come back to this video sometimes just for this comment
RIP mercury
Sometimes Kurzgesagt make the dumbest videos like this one . No civilization would go to the trouble of making a dyson sphere when you can just make a computer to simulate the universe and the simulated occupants of said universe would never grow old , be sick or die ...that is why we don't detect Aliens because they shed biology long ago .
"Where is Mercury?"
"Gone. Reduced to mirrors."
lol good comment
psychological torture
Lol
Reduced to Dyson sphere
what if... we just use the actual element Mercury as mirrors?
Great tutorial! Been having trouble building these recently. I think ive got the hang of it now
Lol
lmfao
That's why the power bill dropped okay thanks bro
When I was building one at home, I had an issue with transporting the energy produced over long distances. No need to worry, this video was a great tutorial explaining how mirrors could be used to reflect the sun light to the collectors. It is a great school project. I fully recommend it. lol
Wow I just suck at building one than. Got a D for the project. I was able to explain the process but I was not being 247% efficient with my power.
Hi guys! I am from the year 5024 and this tutorial helped me build the dyson sphere. It works

Saving resources from being wasted on bombs that the higher ups use to destroy eachother
When I was a little boy and I learned about solar power I often would think about how pointless it was to have solar collectors on the ground when we could just have them in space! Even better if we could have them around the sun itself! I never had a word for describing this until I was in high school when I came across the idea of Dyson spheres I got disappointed it wasn’t an original idea but also super happy someone else thought of it too and became super curious about far-future technologies ever since! Dyson spheres are my favorite!
I mean, I think it would still be an original idea, because you came up with it on your own. Sure, somebody came up with it before you, but you weren’t copying them, you just happened to have the same idea.
Its insane to think back to when I first saw this and was blown away by some of these pretty shots of the swarm, only to come back now and see it as almost unprofessional compared to what they make now. Insane. Lovely video, keep up the amazing work. :)

Thanks! Finally a useful and fun DIY project. Power bills have been getting more expensive lately and this seems like a perfect solution.

How to build a Dyson swarm.
First, you're gonna need a planet you don't want...
Or a whole bunch of asteroids.
We just want earth, and probably mars
@@ExEBoss Nope. Mercury is many orders of magnitude more massive than all the astroids in the solar system. There isn't enough astroids to make a full Dyson swarm, and they're too far away regardless. Mercury really is the best solution.
@@bukanchannel8365 ya know that jupiter and saturne protect us from stray asteroids
> Be Mercury
> Sweat profusely
Played it through already! Was big fun and still is. But my Dyson Swarm was a bit short-lived and the solar sails vanished after approx. 30 Minutes. So I used them to create a sphere.
Thank god, I have the resources of not only a planet but a whole galaxy to exploit.
But the Dark Fog seems pretty interested in my doing as well... Nasty little buggers.
Amen brother, keeping the swarm off my resource outposts gets annoying. I am currently constructing a HUGE Dyson sphere around a type O star (blue super giant) I got the frame in place but making and launching the millions and millions of mirrors are going to take forever.
"if you're like us and enjoy using the power of science to determine absurd ways to destroy stuff you might want to hear how you can come up with something like that yourself" truly awesome quote

I wanted to use that joke xd
Saw u on Pyrocynical's channel
I wonder, would it be possible to use such mirrors to focus more sunlight on, say, Mars to heat it up and thus helping to terraform it? Kinda like a huge magnifying glass.
I mean, we'd only need to set up some sort of protection against radiation and solar storms, somehow create an atmosphere and get enough water on Mars to make it habitable...
ooh ooh! laser mars until it has a molten core to make a magnetic field, (i think that’s why it doesn’t idk i’m not doing research rn) and then radiation isn’t an issue :D
obviously this is a joke but it’s funny to think about
Kurgesztat has a video on your idea, sort of
You're just repeating the info from a different kurzgesagt video, pretending like it's an original idea to get likes

ahh gees...this weekend?? i got this.....thing.....i cant make it
I’m in! My father is hitting up Venus tho, I’ll see if I can stop by Mercury to set my bag down
4:00 hexagon is the bestagon
As one man once noted, the problem to building a Dyson Sphere is two-fold:
1. If it doesn't spin, the slightest nudge will imbalance it and it will collapse.
2. Spinning it stops the problem of imbalance. However, centrifugal force for something the size of the sun will apart.
But the whole video focused on a Dyson Swarm, not a Dyson Sphere. If its a swarm, then it doesnt need to spin, it would simply need to orbit which we know how to do. So you couldn't "nudge" a Dyson Swarm because its not a single object.
it's main focus was on dyson swarms not an entire structure. he already explained what would happen if it was a dyson sphere stucture.
Mercury : Am i a joke to you?
People : Yup!
Of course not
@SatanicBeige [SB] lol
Your sacrifice will be remembered and your legend will be told for eons. Nao die.
Humanity: Nope, a serious stepping stone.
We were born just in time to speculate whether or not humanity can achieve this level of technology

You ever realize how amazing a kurzgesagt style survival game would be
Civilisation type game or maybe space agency type game
I thought you were talking about if you were the ducks.

@@MarcosVinicius-hs6cs my man
I can just imagine people protesting the Dyson Structure to save mercury lmao
impossible... how does he speak the future
I legit saw a comment complaining that removing Mercury would "fuck up astrology and mess up our star signs and zodiac readings"
I came from the future just to let you know you are completely right. But they were out voted and it is very similar to this. But that really old show Star Trek is a very good representation of what we do in the 24th century.
@@Dannybythebanana ahh yes The zodiac readings definitely rely on mercury
lmao
Anyone who finds these sorts of things fascinating and likes factory-automation style games absolutely must play Dyson Sphere Program, it’s a gorgeous game and illustrates so many of these principles well
I would totally play a game with this style and music and Kurzgesagt graphics including all these things like black hole bombs tethers stellar engines and Venus and Mars terrraforming. The music designer also needs a raise it’s god tier
There’s another comment mentioning a game called “Dyson Sphere Program”. It’s about building a Dyson sphere (shockingly). I don’t know if there’s other stuff like tethers or black hole bombs or anything about it really, but I thought to mention it anyway.

Scientists: a small price for salvation
Did you build a Dyson Sphere?
*Yes.*
What did it cost?
*Mercury.*
MechanicPluto24 lol
I mean how many of us would actually be bothered if the planet was completely mined to the core to the point where it's unrecognizable? I mean obviously if it had life it would be a different story, but if the planet itself is dead then it truly is a small price to pay.
@@howdydoody6057 It's just sitting there, screwing up Newtonian physics.... I as a classical Newtonian definitely think we should get rid of Mercury.

Why we don’t put solar panels on mercury instead of destroying mercury to build dyson sphere
@@secretunknown2782 Because solar panels are very short-lived compared to the timespan it will take us to harnes all the energy needed for interstellar space travel. Solar panels are not as efficient as we think :) They're still heaps better than fossil fuels at not destroying our planet, but it's still not good enough for very, very big energy generation. I've got my sights set on nuclear fusion, but that needs to be properly funded and isn't really at the moment.

I love how they presented it like a civilization strategy game. I would love it if they made one, with most of their scientific teachings as occurences in the game, like after getting enough resources you could build a dyson swarm, etc. Kinda like Spore.

Dude the Dyson swarm not only solves problems listed but also the complete obstruction of all sunlight
You only block it out if you use 100% of the star's energy.
A Dyson swarm wouldn't block out the sun. A tiny fraction of the sun's energy would likely be enough until we can expand to other stars.
Ahhh to be able to live long enough to see something like this accomplished.... what a dream.
i can imagine building the dyson sphere would be much easier than resolving conflicts we have right now.
What technological limitations can you think of that prevents us from creating some type of partial Dyson swarm from mining with robots mercury and launching satellites/collectors to beam down energy and accelerate the process?
@@sw1tch327 The abysmal efficiency, recyclability, and maintenance of solar panels and the difficulties we would also have with capacity when it comes to storing that power.
On the one side. We might not need huge capacity if we can solve the problems with Solar energy. Solar Panels lose efficiency as they heat up and their efficiency is rather shit to begin with. But if we could develop solar technology that would allow us to control how much energy we take-in, whenever we need it. Then we wouldn't need to have an incredibly advanced energy infrastructure.
That said. Without that advancement. We need a good way to direct as much solar energy into the energy grid for storage for when it's needed. Batteries are essentially already at their best efficiency that we can actually get them. There's pretty much a chemical limit. So we can't just make a super-grid of batteries. They're expensive, volatile, inefficient for our purpose etc.
Super capacitors have the problem of having even less efficiency than batteries but they can output charge much faster. Not really fit for purpose.
Perhaps we'd find ways to use any excess energy that we harvest when it's not needed and pump it into a mechanical system that would allow us to convert later on.
I'm spitballing here but yeah. There's a boatload of issues with just receiving the energy. Let alone setting up the infrastructure that builds the thing.
@@Unethical.Dodgson Well if you watched the video it covered that when it said to use mirrors. With that much power we can use kugleblitz batteries (maybe). And we can just not store whatever energy we don't need and use what we can and then we have a very high demand for energy storage
Honestly, most people would rather focus on space travel than current problems because it's easier and more interesting. There's a reason there are hundreds of sci-fi shows but none about feeding the homeless.
@@sw1tch327 sorry to necro here, but my concert is he said mirrors to direct to a place. If that place is on earth then we are going to fry the earth before the end. Even if we dont, if the mirrors have a glitch that much energy focused in one place could demolish any city (magnifying glass and ant). So we focus on an object in orbit, how do we get that energy here? We don't have a way to efficiently transmit energy across space. Right now the only way they can think of is lasers, and again with that much energy a bad actor could demolish a city. There is also a massive amount of energy lost to the atmosphere and then again with solar. The mirrors have to be able to direct in unison to a point. How are we going to do that? Not to mention it has to get into orbit, but the mirrors will act as solar sails. If we use the force of those to keep it in orbit then we run into the issue of sun spots. Then how do we rotate the mirrors to remain focused on earth? Can't be gas we would run out on the mirrors before long. Maybe some gyroscope, but we would have to have billions of satellites working in unison

@@sahinyasar9119 probably because our atmosphere is too thick and the speed required to launch things would burn them up I guess
@@sahinyasar9119 1. earth gravity is stronger than mercury
2. The atmosphere is also thicker
3. Launching stuff to space with such a scheme would take a crazy high starting velocity since the acceleration is lost the moment the ship left the gun.
4. it would take a really long rail gun or large amount of energy to achieve such starting velocity, not to mention how the ship will survive such velocity
