You always make science way more interesting

The reason why people are trying to make Mars habitable. it’s to be prepared for the day when the sun expands and earth becomes just like Venus

My brother intorduced this channel to me on lockdown now i am a big fan of this channel you give us a very good and intersting information about our planet

Terraforming Venus makes much more sense than mars

"Earth might one day soon resemble the planet Venus." -- Stephen Hawking

In case you didn't know, 10000 days is 27.37 years, roughly the age of an adult.

I'm really love this channel and it has a lot of information about everything ❤

I would love to see an what if we turn the moon into an intergalactic self-sustaining space ship and colonize it. Stealing power from stars as we travel the cosmos.

I've always thought Venus was a better candidate. My contribution to this venture is to float an idea... Find a chemical way to change the reflectivity of the upper atmosphere rather than block the energy of the sun from space. Or possibly use both to drive the planet into an ice age and then let the planet warm up slowly to a target temperature to introduce extremophiles.

I think Venus is where hell is

If I couldn’t colonize Mars, Venus would definitely be my second choice

One fun Venus Terraforming idea is to simple build a new surface at the altitude with the better living conditions. Essentially, utilize the carbon in the atmosphere to build floating blocks or platforms, and then cover the planet with them. Push all the bad gasses beneath this manufactured surface and create a breathing air mix above, and have the surface super reflective so that it also helps regulate the planets temperature. I have heard that estimates on a timescale to actually do this based on the energy that would be available could mean it would be in the hundreds of years, rather than thousands. probably still not feasible though.

I really love this video keep it up 😊❤

Make a video. What if humans invested 10x more money in space exploration. What results would we have reached then?

first part is to clean the air as much as possible for awhile we already got the ability to extract diff cem from the air slowly taking away the dangerous cems from the atmosphere would have to be the first step fs 😅

Loving the clips from Star Citizen. 😎

What If is a great time passer!!

What's not addressed here is the lack of a magnetic field on Venus. Any atmosphere you create that simulates Earth would be blasted away by the Solar Wind, much like the Martian atmosphere was when Mars lost it's magnetic field. If you could solve that, perhaps by deploying a magnetic dipole shield at the L1 Lagrange point, then more options open up. If you could do that for Venus, then you could do it for Mars as well.

Love what if videos🥰🥰🥰

Colonizing Venus would not be an easy feat.

Could you make, What if the moon had a molten surface?

Very cool video, thank you.

Na i can only see us moving outwards but saying that research stations could be set up easily in the future.

Cool vid 😎👍

I think it would be more difficult, to try to terraform planet:VENUS, then trying to terraform planet:MARS.

Is one of the best channel that provide free knowledge of science

Long term plans. Short term we currently does not have these technologies but in few century or millenia it will. It's a worth investment in my opinion.

Team 7 minutes! Let's go!!!! ❤

Venus= Crushes you, Hot , everyone wonders about you. My Ex=Crushes you, Hot , everyone wonders about you Thats about right.

$7500 Trillion dollars, is what would be removed from the global energy sector for complex mineral extraction synthesis... just to source material for an observatory. "that's a global debt per person of $14 million dollars!"

I liked the footage of Orison in the gas giant in Star Citizen at the start. That actually isn’t the craziest option for humanity if we crack the technology for the floating platforms.

You should really delve into the reasons for why such floating Venus habitats might be valuable beyond just expanding the human presence in the solar system, because making an economical reason to develop Venus can take a leap in logic. Personally, I think the in-atmosphere infrastructure and development could become quite valuable as a support mechanism for space developments around the planet. If we start getting ambitions with space mega-projects, we probably won't want to endanger and risk polluting the navigation space around Earth with some mega development, so it could be quite advantageous to instead locate such projects in orbit of Venus, where there is plentiful solar energy available. And if you are going to need personnel to be nearby to work on and direct such projects, having a haven with gravity and radiation protection within the atmosphere would make a lot of sense. So I can see the majority of a remote workforce stationing and rotating themselves within Venus atmospheric habitats. And if you get enough developments and expansions of these colonies, you will eventually have enough recreation activities to keep a permanent or even native population occupied beyond the constant work of maintenance and developments. Also, it would be very advantageous for habitat developments to be very spacious in order to create additional lift, so it is unlikely that occupants would be feel too constrained after it is moderately developed. Beside, such facilities will likely mostly be maintained through automated systems and AI, so it shouldn't be completely up to massive amounts of human labor to keep them running, Rather, I think the purpose of having people there should be so they can provide their efforts towards exterior projects, so if the interior systems cannot be mostly automated, then the value in having people there significantly decreases.

What If We Save Earth?

If we could build a space-bridge from Transformers, we could move Mercury, or Io from their orbits around the Sun and Jupiter to orbit Venus instead in backwards rotations like Triton. The prescence of a moon could cause Venus to spin faster to reignite the magnetic field, and hopefully slowly rip a hole through the co2 and acid clouds, thus allowing the heat to finally escape into space. As for water, we first have to neutralize and remove the sulfuric acid as it finally forms liquid bodies on the surface, then use the space-bridge to remove Europa or Enceladus, or Pluto, and send them smashing into Venus to give it a better tilt for seasons and bring water

A "what if" scenario like this is amusing to see, but it'll only be a "what if" in the end. We should stop any conflict on Earth first if we want to be an Interstellar Civillization, which is impossible. Just let it be a science fiction for people like me😊

could a terrarium orbs concept full of resilient algae or photosynthetic organisms which circulate oxygen with the venutian atmosphere also be able to float in the goldilocks zone of the atmosphere? and could enough of such devices be capable of gradually terraforming the planet?

we would not waste human life like u have described. Theres a reason we havent done that already

This tech works a lot better on Neptune. You can directly make plastics from it's Methane and it has Helium-3 in vast quantities.

It's funny how the Jetsons seem to make more and more sense when you watch this 😅

It is easier to terraform Venus then Mars, much easier. Just drop pipeline from orbit and pump carbon dioxide on orbit. We can create artificial moon from CO2 and build factory on orbit which will produce oxygen, methane and graphene parts of spaceships and spacestations. Floating cities on 40-50km create camfortable life for humans. Temperature on surface will go done when atmosphere density will reduced. I would prefer start with Venus then with Mars. Mars is too far away, not enough power resources, poisonous soil and high radiation... Definitely Venus!

Instead of all that, have the same cloud cities above our own earth or even moon

I guess if we move to venus we become the Jetsons 😂😂😂😂

At 50 km above the surface, Venus is the most earth-like location in the Solar System. Its temperature is between 20C and 30C with the same gravity has Earth meaning no ill effects to the human body compare to planets with lower or no gravity. The atmospheric pressure is close to 1 atm meaning you don't need a pressurized suit but just air supply and a hazard suit to protect from the sulfuric acid which by the way at that height the haze layer thins out and sulfuric acid level drops out significantly. You don't have to worry about explosive decompression if something tears or rips thanks to the similar atmospheric pressure and your protected from solar radiation, thanks to the thick atmosphere which causes an induces magnetosphere. Besides better living conditions, getting to Venus takes less time, about 3 to 5 months compare to 6 to 10 months to Mars. This means less exposure time to micro gravity while traveling to Venus and being closer also means shorter launch windows. Another advantage for a trip to Venus is actually benefiting for a Mars mission. You can use Venus as a gravity assist to go to Mars meaning shorter total mission time, more frequent launch window, dramatically reducing the energy needed for the trip like saving fuel and weight therefore saving cost.

I say forget about Venus. Just go with O'Neill style habitats, preferably in the outer solar system where you don't have to deal with the solar flares.

Wolfenstein The New Colossus offers a pretty nice portrayal of science fiction putting us on Venus.

Terra forming Venus atmosphere would be a very costly first challenge but doable in about 100 years or so. Pressures would be naturally evaporated into space. Water must be added. Luckily, there's lots of that in the solar system. All else would follow.

Thumb up 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

10:29 😂😂 it sounded like got censored

Earth will be like venus anyway, if we dont get filtered out by a large event by then

Saw some Star Citizen in there! 👨‍🚀

Is there a what if series of not recycling videos and topics?

The moon and mars, is obvious but in the long run we need to expend to have a colony on every planet in the system to learn more and if we get that far to terrformed the whole planet.

Bombarding Venus with 3*10^24 Kg of Potash lime could make Venus Earth like.

nice

Mr. Peter Schmiedchen did u allow the copyright to a lemar tv production in Afghanistan who copy ur content and cast it on tv in afghani language dubbed ???

Maybe Stockten Rush from Ocean Gate can invent a Submarine for Venus?

Wasting time observing even if they already know no one life can survive

What if every concerts all around the world are all in one spot or place at once?

make a vidoe on what if we inhale inert gases till atomic no. 86

My kid likes your channel he watch your video every day in tv

It makes me mad that the soviets aren't getting credited at all for exploring venus.

So the jetsons was on Venus ?

I really don't understand why people would even think to go to venues surface. It is so hot down there. If I were any of those scientists I would also think not to even think about going there and if we did go there, live in sky cities built from the ground up. That is a little more challenging but would be more likely to have less problems than living on the surface of Venus. That is only my opinion but everyone has their own so... that is what I think we should do instead of living on the surface.

Your balloon descends toward the surface very slowly and you have no way to stop it.

You forgot to mention that Earth and Venus have the same gravity.

If humans do colonise on Venus, in a way you are not preparing for when the sun turns into a red giant, you are going closer to the sun.

I think hell is Venus

U made 1 mistake. 5000 days is actually 13 years. Not 6.

Sending an astronaut is absurd : what is needed to see the things from near is a deep-diving submarine like the bathyscaph.

What if we transport ciano bacteria it transform carbon atmosphere of venus to be oxygeneted atmosphere fisrt

Lmao is that star citizen footage?

While other try to look for other planets....I think it's best I go to heaven. This is my opinion in case you read this comment 😅

Maybe invest money and time on trying to get to Kepler 22b instead?

Venus alters the universe

The universe will end Earth before humanity goes interstellar.

'Habitation' is a much better term than "colonisation". It is less misguided. Anyway, this was a great vid! 👏✨

I'm 14 years old, and just in case Venus let you down, here is to give you all hope: 1. In 2025, NASA is putting 4 people on the Moon's south pole for a week because they found water ice. 2. Elon Musk will put a man on Mars by 2030. 3. Commercial space travel/trips will be available in your lifetime. 4. If humans mass produce Borophene or Graphene soon, then we will have the material that will be used for deep space travel (best durability + least weight + electroconductivity). 5. Nasa plans on putting humans permanently on the Moon by 2050. 6. There are 303 celestial bodies (moons, planets, etc.) in our solar system alone. One of the moons has its own atmosphere, Pluto and 6 other moons have water on them, with more evidence being discovered every day. I remembered these off the top of my head, so fact check them if you'd like, but its crazy to think that our generation will be the first ever cosmic generation in history.

How about let's just spend all the money on undoing the damages we did on Earth rather than spending billions on trying to find another planet?

I have been planning for a while to push Mars out of its orbit and place it in earths orbit keeping maximum seperation. Hey... We have two earths there ready to occupy. (neglect "G")

Remote controlled Robots to do the job!

First we need to go beyond the moon .

wow

May be in Type 5 Civilization it would be possible to populate Venus.

I'm happy to see a scientist and not Chase.

Why would you want to move closer to the sun? lmao.

Still better than Barcelona.

If your planning to terraform Mars or Venus?? 😅 That would take thousands of years. It would actually be more realistic to develop Interstellar Space craft to search for habitable Planets.

For a moment I thought, more dangerous than venus is you.

Block the sun so it goes down to 30 below zero. Most CO2 will become liquid at 10 atmospheres of pressure and 30 below. Instant oceans. Marginally bearable temperature and pressure. Crack some CO2 for oxygen too.

gas balloons? cloud colonies. Gee you better not take any pins over there

Jupiter🎉

Earth

Does anyone else find the narrators voice to sound really exaggerated sounding?

Before thinking about settling on Mars or Venus, people need to learn to live on their planet, and not start wars and choose, or sympathize with dictators.

What if we terraform Jupiter

10,000 Days on Ceres.

How much you wanna make a bet that theres an ocean of water under the surface of venus?

what that guy said about terraforming venus isn't exactly true. Earth systems are far far more complicated than venus as we know it. Venus whole problem is too much CO2. Solve the CO2 problem and you pretty much solve all the other problems except having oxygen to breathe.

For those of you who are North American like I am, 50 km =
