Yea bro Seeker was bought by a company apparently called “The Verge” so I guess Verge is maintains the Seeker UA-cam Channel and may not be keeping everything up to date. Goes to show it’s not about the channel itself it’s about the people behind running a channel yk. So this 5M UA-cam channel which was once run by Seeker was thriving but when “The Verge” bought it I guess it was monitored differently so yea. I recommend doing your own further research on this topic to better get the answer that your looking for but this is just my opinion and observation based on what was provided on their UA-cam channel.🙂
Listen, long form science based content like this has a longer shelf life. It’s not connected to trends. Also UA-camrs are paid for views monthly. Since these videos always perform, the longer your channel is around it just continues to get paid off its views so the need to push out new videos isn’t as much as it is for other channels that live and breathe based on being current with trending topics. You couple that with new management and you get what you see here.
This is kinda terrifying that such a well-produced channel could possibly be gone due to layoffs at Vox Media. This is quality science writing/journalism that should continue.
thanks for this info! speaking of quality content:I've been watching the newest Wendover video and how quality won the game I've been wondering: why haven't I seen a Seeker video in my feed for such a long time
A portion of the team got reassigned to The Verge in 2022 after the G9/Vox merger, and then subsequently laid off in 2023@@Storystrue - it was all handled really poorly :/
Fascinating vid.. Dust is definitely one of the bigger early problems before things like large concrete pads can get laid down.. That is the long term solution - taking everything needed for heavy construction.. Rebar, concrete mixture, setting agents, maybe water, maybe stuff for pressurised atmosphere. Working without air likely to be the biggest problem. Understanding the regolith is absolutely crucial to solving so many of these kinds of problems.
Somehow it's little details like this part of the effort that excite me the most about our return to the Moon. Makes it feel like we'll really go back this time.
Its been real D news! I have watch tons of youre videos. I fell off a year or two after the seeker change but still popped in time to time.i enjoy all of the knowledge and entertainment you gave me. Sleep well
Is it too soon to make a landing pad for the Moon, a large sectional thing that we can stick a rocket to that won't push dirt everywhere? Given the fact that gravity is less, perhaps you could just use a push away type of Thruster until it moves away from the Moon and then you could straighten it out.
The verge basically murdered a channel for money. It's gross they don't even make the same content on the verge channel either. Will always think very negative opinions about the verge because of THIS very reason.
Off topic but If humans are able to mine asteroids and comets then use it on different projects on Earth, does the mass will add up overtime and the Earth's rotation will become slower and slower overtime?
Luckily, no dust or blast crater were found on any of the lunar landing pads in the Apollo moon landing photos. I guess this channel needed to be shut down before people started looking back at the photos taken from Apollo 11, lol.
Nothing? But Mythbusters proved bootprints could be done in vacuum! Got eveywhere... "I'll agree that sharp edged footprints can be made in cement dust (from a bag of cement), but if you kick some, it will billow up into a cloud of earth bound dust. Thus, since we didn't see that, the moon landings were real." > so if it doesnt float how can it cover their suits?
Interesting video.. I'll watch the rest. Do you know who Abby Vieregg? Otherwise known as PI for ANITA, Antarctica? I'm wondering why she hasn't been in your videos.
A. Never land a rocket near an unshielded person, vehicle, vessel, or edifice. B. Lunar landings take place in a vacuum, making your tabletop version of a landing an exercise in futility.
It seems that the video is talking about taking care of lunar dust in a landing that could eventually actually take place in future missions, as it contradicts the images of the Apollo landings. In all of those six "very successful" landings, you practically didn't see all that much-vaunted dust at the time of landing. Why all this concern now? The next missions need to improve image capture so that everything looks more realistic and less contradictory. In fact, there is no shortage of funds and technology to falsify science at NASA's Space Theme Park for the joy and entertainment of its passionate fans.
Sounds like they should stop using rocket's to land.or to spray the area where they are going to land with a fast drying reason.somethat will take the heat. But make a landing pad
What you do if you have some holidays leftovers? Can you find an easier way to plant crops or mix some food and don't really need heavy machinery? Now you just something in animal ministry.
I just watched one of your videos from 8 years ago denying climate change because Antarctic ice was not melting. Is that the only reason you deny climate change and what is happening to Antarctic ice.now?
I wish you'd used the term simulated or synthetic in your title instead of "fake". That feeds into the space denier, flat earth, conspiracy theory crowd
I was gonna say the same thing. But they probably knew that and was intended. Besides, even if the comfort theorists fill the comment section that's engagement regardless. With that said, they need science in their lives lol.
When you fall you constantly accelerate, lunar gravity is about 1.6m/s². So every second you fall, you're going 1.6meters per second faster, and there's no atmosphere so you'll never slow down
This makes me laugh cause I was in the regolith lab at JSC working with lunar dirt and I ask the lady where do they get the samples and she didn’t want to tell me cause it was proprietary information. Thanks for letting me know where they get it from 😅
Space elevators are way more trouble than they are worth. I really don't see them being a thing till we're already colonizing space and got super strong building materials like carbon nano tubes perfected. Now space hooks are a different story.
And that's why they don't let you see stars when they're in "space." Somebody would identify a constellation and their whole sh!t storytime would unravel. Elon is complicit.

Why does lunar dust immediately fall to the ground after being kicked up by astronauts?
Lunar regolith

Where are you guys? I’ve noticed a lot of corporate UA-cam channels are absent in 2023. What’s happening?!

I hope you'll leave a Trace Dominguez vibe for science on this channel
Can you do a video of all the space start-up launch companies and what they are up to?
I'd like to know more about building landing pads out of regolith. What other materials would be required to bring to make concrete?
Is it too soon to make a landing pad for the Moon, a large sectional thing that we can stick a rocket to that won't push dirt everywhere? Given the fact that gravity is less, perhaps you could just use a push away type of Thruster until it moves away from the Moon and then you could straighten it out.
Somehow dust didn`t bother legs of LEM in 1969. Pristine cleanliness.
Selling moon dust is actually a sand business model - repeat customers will buy on a regolith basis.
Sad to see you guys go.😢
Amazing video bro
👍
It's sad that Seeker is dead. I prefer it to The Verge. Its short explainer videos are perfect for me.
The closest thing I can think to compare this stiff to is micro-plastics with the properties of asbestos.
Happy Holidays 2022. Peace, love and harmony.
Given the lower gravity on the moon, stuff is gonna be *everywhere*
Except on legs of LEM in 1969.
No, because there is no dense atmosphere, nothing ever "glides" or "bellows".
I miss this channel as it was my favourite well 😢. I was here -----------+----------->
It's been 11 months already
What happened to D news
They sold themselves to The Verge
@@churasbro6246 They had this guy, I forgot his name but he started a channel of his own. Can't remember what it was. He was a famous host on dnews

And that proves they never went before. No dust on the moon landers feet.

👍
Off topic but If humans are able to mine asteroids and comets then use it on different projects on Earth, does the mass will add up overtime and the Earth's rotation will become slower and slower overtime?
It would take a lot of added mass to slow earth down just a bit
Is this channel dead now?
Wth happened with this awesome channel
Dear Seekers, please come back!
Why your channels are inactive?
No new video long ago!?
5 million subscribers, but most of their videos got under 100k views.
Speed is the problem. Rocket to slow enough for air bags. That answer is already proven on Mars. Less gravity on the moon does not matter.

why no new vids

Funny how they insist vacuum dust doesnt float but it gets everywhere....
Same as perfect bootprints but it sticks to soles....
very nice
İ miss seeker, where are you guys? What happened? İ hope you guys come back online, See you soon.
16 months now
I think we should pave it! Send up 3d printers water Portland cement pave it
Why did team Seeker stop uploading new videos? Do 5 million subs mean nothing? We love your videos, make a comeback and start uploading frequently!!
Fake moon soil, you mean... just soil. Cause there is no moon soil, just a pool and a mirror.
What happened to yall..

Just dug up your Channel I haven't seen a video from you in forever what happened also you don't appear on UA-cam search anymore
Is part of the vision “mining” the moon? If so, how much material would need to be extracted to have a meaning gravitational impact?
Thank you d news
did this channel end?
apparently so
Looks like it sadly, been with this channel since the days of test tube lol, that was like 8 years ago now, what a shame
@@elcabbage2306 When it was still called dnews

Fake moon dust is real than the moon landing.😂😂😂
Like Mythbusters really showing dry vacuum allows perfect bootprints :)

Well said, but kind of stuff that never sees the light in the TOP Comments....
I wonder what concrete made from moon dust is like?
The regular concrete, the same one they used in Cannon AFB to fake the landing in hangars , in 1968.
Moon dust reminds me of asbestos.
Is this channel now dead ??
It would seem so
Makes you wonder how we handled the first time…
Sounds like they should stop using rocket's to land.or to spray the area where they are going to land with a fast drying reason.somethat will take the heat. But make a landing pad
Ok, all the hype and science is exciting. But isn't this another "space race" between countries? I mean, again?
why don't they use water spray over the landing zone with drone before landing. 🤷🏻♂️
What happened to this channel ?

why dont they just land slowly, like, theres close to no gravity to pull the ship towards moon. why not move slowly towards it?
there's no atmosphere to slow the rocket
@@maddoxmonteza i think they can use rocket too to slow it down but very slowly. itll probably take a long time tho
