Did the Planet Express ever actually deliver any packages? 

Came to the comments to find this quote, was not disappointed

It's a good thing the Planet Express doesn't have to deliver to Venus... Down at the surface, the average atmospheric pressure is... about 93 times higher than on Earth... which is nowhere NEAR what it is on Saturn, Uranus, or Neptune... Of course, if it CAN make deliveries to Venus... then it can probably go deeper underwater (on Earth, of course) than any "Squishie" submarine. Squish... squish... "There's Klingons on the starboard bow, starboard bow, starboard bow..." "It's worse than that. He's dead, Jim." "Slowly going forward... 'cause we can't find reverse."

What ever the max atmosphere the ship has to land on. Definitely worth watching the show poke fun of all of the other Sifi shows.

@@nyetzdyec3391 Ok what happened to your point I am so confused right now

@@ussenterprisecv6805 My point was that a ship capable of landing on almost any other planet in our solar system would be able to handle one hell of a lot more than just a single atmosphere of pressure. It was a reply to the OP's comment that "anywhere between 0 and 1". I *think* he was referring to the necessary 1 atmosphere of INTERNAL pressure... or perhaps the 1a (1 atmosphere) of pressure on Earth. 1a is actually pretty LOW in terms of the planets of our own solar system that actually have a functional atmosphere. Functionally speaking, it wouldn't much matter if that atmosphere was gaseous or liquid, as far as the pressure itself is concerned.

Do you remember the name of that series?

@@masstv9052 Futurama. The specific episode referenced is "The Route of All Evil."

@@Tiglath-Pileser3 thanks. I misread your post. I thought I meant a different series. But thanks for the episode name cuz I must have missed that one

Don't forget the episode where they travel to the edge of the universe and wave at the cowboy hat universe.

@@seanpeacock4290 that was great lol

As I remember they has about 50+ years of top-university education combined

Not to mention at least one bona-fide mathematical theorem that was basically an entire episode of the show.

It's actually called Futurama Theorem, which is cool.

same goes for most of the Simpson writers.

@@envisioner007 Well Futurama is another creation of Matt Groening, so a bit of overlap in writing staff was to be expected.

REMOTE CONTROL sold gold Deathstars

It launches scooty puffs.... so there's that

Reading this comment and trying to imagine it as being about a ship from Star Wars make this 10x more hilarious. XD

Did the solid gold Deathstars go full Disco Death Ball mode? Complete with Solid Gold Dancers?

Also scientists increased the speed of light

See this? It’s called a hard limit. You can’t change that. But, if we just *fold the universe in half* then yeah we can make mars walking distance from Toronto

​@@ixia8062 there is also such a thing as cost efficiency. And it is MUCH cheaper to build actual road between planets and literally walk from planet to planet on foot, htan do any of this time-space crap.

@@ixia8062 Then a kindergartner asks you at which speed to two rays of light collide and you have to delve into relativity or google the answer because you're not a scientist. What moves faster then light or at least has potential to? The very thing that can trap it. Gravity. Or rather change it n it. If you make a black hole in the center of our galaxy double its mass in a second, how long it'll take it to start affecting the orbits of other bodies all over galaxy? Will the change spread with speed of light or higher?

@@TheArklyte i’m pretty sure gravity moves at C, but i could be wrong. The whole “it would take 8 minutes after the sun disappeared for the earth to even be affected or know that it had happened” makes it seem like gravity only affects things at a speed of C

They did technically make a delivery to the moon once. They basically got to the moon and just chucked the package in some random bin, but they did actually get it TO the moon.

@@raeishimura Also delivered lugnuts to the planet of killer robots.

@@mattstorm360 oh that's right, they did actually succeed in delivering those. They dumped them out over the planet didn't they?

@@raeishimura They dropped the box and when it crashed the lugnuts went flying into the air. The robots were happy though.

@@mattstorm360 Haha, that's right. Didn't they also technically once have to deliver something to themselves? i forget the episode, but i'm pretty sure they got assigned a delivery and then it was for the Professor so they just handed it to him.

@@andrewhalo100 yes, I believe it did. I don't realy remember the episode, but Fry used it to spell out a love message dedicated to Leela, literally written in the stars

@@joshadams5602 Time Keeps On Slipping - S3E14

Also, the time Ermes was on his way to throw in the sun the box containing the whole universe

But she's able to drive stick as long as she doesn't have to paralell park!

I've only seen glimpses from the outside or from behind 3-4 company lawyers from the companies that want to bring me somewhere (had to sign something like 100 documents when i first acted as a consultant in the MIC)

*THE BEST KIND OF CORRECT*

Just like if someone just read Wikipedia for the show and was confused about what the show was this was great

Mad scientist don't retire

@@andrewholdaway813 Fair enough. Perhaps we should say he was taking a short break after his last crew was stung to death by giant bees?

@@RetroRobotRadio That's more like it

Don't forget that Fry is the professors great great........................ ancestor.

Hahahaha!

The Infinite Improbability Drive makes more sense than the spore drive.

@@SacredCowShipyards Back in the 70's, there was a novel... where the ship ran REALLY well (perhaps too well) on moldy cheese.

@@SacredCowShipyards Where do you stand on the Bistromatic?

@@SacredCowShipyards the infinite improbability drive is my most favourite in literature :D

Huh. I think I got it from Airplane.

@@SacredCowShipyards I swear it was on the first space station they ever went to.

@@nope8535 Well, I can't find the line I was thinking of, so, at this point, who knows?

@@SacredCowShipyards You could be miss-remembering a simpsons ep ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7rdL5pKvsss.html

@@SacredCowShipyards Do compressed cubes have really happy autopilots? If they don't, I don't think they could have come from Airplane.😁

Yes, well, we can't trust everyone to have watched every episode.

The difference between anime/cartoon and CGI can be ascribed to level of detail. Then there's get sci-fi with all practical effects, which is only different from playing with toys by the addition of filming it.

Landing in a dense atmosphere would require several atmospheres of pressure tolerance to be built in

@@technophant True. Contemporary re-entry also requires a strong structure, at least on the side encountering the air resistance, in addition to the heat protection.

yes, and humans actually also used whale oil in their 19th century cars

Oh that's just being mean. I love it.

Yes yes yes!! Do the TARDIS!!!

Isn’t that the planet where all humans are killed on sight?

Since beer contains only a few percentages of alcohol, it is a very inefficient fuel. But then again, that is a very Bender thing to do.

@@schwarzerritter5724 well, making the most of inefficient fuel sources is a very common thing with such tech.

@@lyokianhitchhiker Also, it was intentional to be inefficient. I dont remember the exact reason but it happened during the time when mad Prof. Farnsworth and evil Carol Miller aka. Mom were a loving couple.

Btw. because of timetravel shenanigans it seems Bender is also much older than the Universe. Even older than the universe can ever get, which is kinda weird i guess.

@@schwarzerritter5724 And the longer without alcohol the more "drunk" he acts leading to an internet theory that he chooses beer over stronger stuff to keep a buzz going.

It's still on the list.

oh god, yes!

Fry delivered a couple on foot before.

But the couches, tho.

@@SacredCowShipyards I like couches And anyways, with the Infinite Improbability drive, you're pretty well able to come out on top in any combat situation, even though the ship is unarmed Possibly more OP than a TARDIS

@@SacredCowShipyards there is the BBC tv version.

Haha, the still goes glub glub glub.

I'm fairly sure that was just the Planet Express ship's dark matter engine.

I doubt I ever will :).

Travis S. Taylor and John Ringo used that exact idea.

One of the latter is, notably, turning into a couch.

@@SacredCowShipyards: Better than a sperm whale or a bowl of petunias.

They delivered pillows to the high gravity planet.

@@david2869 Yeah. So 4 packages.

@@holz_name Well, 5 packages at least. They delivered nuts and bolts to the robot planet. I am sure there are some others I have forgotten.

They delivered the giant atom - Jumbononium? - for the Miss Universe pageant tiara.

@@chrisburr999 Right. But it was stolen by Bender. Should I count this?

A sentient Cabbit/spaceship belonging to the universe's most notorious space pirate, that runs on carrots and falls in love with a human/jurai boy. Yep, that will be good.

And the tree ships.

But only starts.

The thing I question is what happens when two ships with this drive try to move space at the same time. Exactly how much pressure is being applied to space to move the entirety of it at the same time and exactly how stretchy is space? Do you want to bring the creeping chaos into this world, cause I'm pretty sure that's how you bring the creeping chaos into this world.
