Physicist Reacts to Kerbal Scuffed Program 3 by martincitopants 

its funny, when I got hooked on KSP is also when i discovered that show and binged the entire thing while playing. great show

I started watching For all mankind when the episode ‘Red Moon’ came out (first episode) and I fell in love with it and it is my favourite series

and then for all kerbalkind

sadly, i already saw all three seasons.

How about For all Kerbalkind? I love that series as well ^^

And what is a Venus digital?

Also the displacement of the local humans who have lived there for generations all for the sake of a mad billionaire vanity project that would make most dystopias look good.

I think it is ~170 miles long, 200 metres wide and 500 metres high. It will absolutely affect the animals and probably people too. Then there is the ethical concern, they are sentencing people to death or shooting them if they refuse to be evicted, they are also evicting them with no compensation until the buildings are appraised after they are demolished, so chances are that means they will get almost nothing. They are getting as little as 24 hours notice to pack their things and leave and are viewed and branded as criminals, drug addicts or having diseases, its even worse for undocumented migrants apparently. The whole thing is completely unethical and against the, "UN Basic Principles and Guidelines on Development-Based Evictions and Displacement", I would hope the UN steps in soon and makes sure it is done the right way.

@@purplefood1 With no compensation until the buildings are appraised after demolition. Also with as little as 24 hour notice. Apparently some only found out they were being evicted because they went outside and the word "evicted" was spray painted on everyones houses, then they shut the electricity off a day later. What worse is they are sentencing people protesting it, to death or in some cases shooting them. I hope the UN or similar steps in soon, they are violating these peoples rights, essentially kicking them out, with nothing, and state media is branding them as criminals, drug addicts and being diseased, to try and get people to view them poorly and make it seem justified.

Yeah plus I cant even imagine how many birds will just fly straight into it not realizing its a reflection.

To say nothing about what it will do to local air currents. which we now know is what caused the sahara to form in the first place. IE massive deforestation that caused local temps to rise, which shifted air currents, which resulted in dryer conditions, all turning the sahara jungle into the desert it is today.

WAR !!

@@soul___pilot WAAAGH!

By the power OF KRAKEN OFCOURSE!!!

I mean one of the easier way is to essentially use the black hole to convert mass into energy. Black holes like most objects in the universe are spinning. By adding mass to them, they spin faster, and by shooting light around them, making it bounce around within it's ergosphere, you can essentially "steal" some of that rotational energy to increase the energy level of your photons which you then extract for power. Black hole generators therefore would essentially be gigantic mass conversions engine, turning worthless things into energy based on their mass.

far easier ...just throw stuff into them no mirror laser needed. better then fusion.

@@MultiKeto I mean you need both a means of keeping the black hole in place and extract energy from it. You get some energy in the form of radiation escaping the black hole and whatever plasma it turned what you threw into it, but unless you are keeping it on the verge of annihilation via hawking radiation you aren't going to get much or at least not very efficiently or in a controlled way

​@@mobiuscoreindustries you don't need to extract energy from the blackhole itself. if you throw stuff into it about 6%-42% of the mass gets coverted into energy that you can use. we would create an artifical accretion disk around the blackhole. the range of the convertion is based on the rotations speed.

Yes, but only if its spinning.

@@foxalpha09 A static non spinning black hole cannot exist because stars spin. Because of angular momentum, the speed of spinning becomes faster the smaller it becomes. So when it collapses into a black hole, it spins thousands, even millions of times per second. We use Schwarzschild black holes (static, not spinning or a low rpm) in equations because it makes them easier.

Are you referring to the Penrose Sphere here? Doesn't It explode after some time?

@@DmitryLia Only if you don't have some way of dissipating the energy.

the anti-chill zone

Cost and reason are honestly the two main ones. Mainly because states care little about the cost of they have a reason to either beat someone or enrich themselves (and space is unfortunately low on the bribery list), and private companies can conjure a reason out of anything that can make a profit, but generating the needed cash is borderline impossible for them. When it comes to tech, the thing is it's not that the tech is that hard, comparatively. rather that just like the mission itself, no one is actually forking the resources to make it happen unless it's needed. Tech needed to survive in space also saves us from the energy crisis down on earth and that is seen as a problem by the current power providers as a dangerous source of disruption, mainly because everyone with an ounce of knowledge in the matter keeps coming back to advanced nuclear reactors as a solution. And as for health it's about the same reason as tech, mainly because just like energy, solving the health problem also puts in jeopardy the current health industry's bread and butter.

Oh beat saber xD you should Hella try furi!!

Well matter by definition would not be able to exceed the speed of light. It can get infinitely close but by law of math you can't actually reach that speed if you have any mass. As a result a whole product being set to move at this speed could remain cohesive... Somewhat See, due to the way velocity and mass interacts with time, as you approach that speed, time effectively slows down as every interactions that happen take longer to have any effect due to time dilatation. As a result traveling at near light speed would essentially freeze time for the vessel until you somehow slow down. Something which could cause major issues since the time between clock cycles on the computers that could engage the slowdown could be literally be hundreds of thousands of years appart. So if you fuck up your timing you may miss your target by a sizable margin.
