Solar Sails are Even Better Than You Think 

He was excited just like us 😂

😢😢😢¹@❤

How the Sun Works Scientists falsely claim that the Sun is a fusion reactor, constantly emitting photon particles and solar wind. In fact, all stars are balls of mass, warmer, brighter matter that are oscillating generators and transformers. Because each atom has its own unique structure, it is an oscillating generator and transformer. Atoms are eternal generators and transformers All atoms consist of indestructible, electrically charged hollow spheres and internally charged solid spheres. The so-called electrons are actually negatively charged liquids attached to the surface of the atom. The hollow sphere has multiple layers, each with an opposite charge. The inner sphere and inner layers of all atoms have the same charge. According to Coulomb's law, the inner balls of all atoms oscillate constantly at a natural frequency and never touch the inner layers. Theoretically, the ability of an atom to carry an infinite amount of energy depends on the input. The more atoms there are, the higher the energy density, the higher the temperature, and the brighter the light. Atoms oscillate at higher voltages. Stars do not emit energy or photons outward, but induce other masses around them to oscillate at their frequency. This is the true mechanism of light, photons and radiation.

Let’s draw penises on starshot crafts and fly them throughout the galaxy

So true, Fraser is on fire right now… so much good content he is pumping out 👍👍👍

I agree. You'd have to survey the sky and pick which target you want to see, very carefully, since your entire mission will be dedicated to that one target only.

Yes, that's true. But you get a megapixel image of that target. If these are small and relatively inexpensive to build and launch, you could see a few dozen flying every year, going after different targets.

@@Threedog1963 - He’s proposing sending multiple missions to different positions 100 AU from earth & launching 5-6 times/year for 10 years. That would give his people 50-60 telescopes distributed in the Oort Cloud, so they could image 50-60 different spaces in the sky…

I am all for this, could you think what impact it would have on our whole society if we can see the surface of exoplanets. Perhaps learn something new things that nobody ever could imagine.

If gravitational lending holds true, and I hope it does, we should be able to se its effects in a lot more places around a lot of exotic planets or gas giants in our solar aystem.

Not invalidating your request but the paper is in the description if you wanna see pictures!

@@essay8634 thank you, friend :-]

So long as the light source and the gravity source is the same or close relative to the sail, you can use the sail to slow the craft to lower the trajectory or speed the craft and raise the trajectory. Instead of playing a wind wing against a water wing as in a sail boat, you play a light wing against inertia/gravity. This becomes less versatile when you're within the gravity well of a planet. Because the light source is no longer parallel to and opposite the gravitational pull. The important way in which it is analogous to a sail boat is propulsion without fuel/propellant. All analogies break down at some level of detail. That's no reason to stop using analogies.

we're talking here about executable, viable technologies with ability for immediate implementation being the main point, as stated so emphatically by dr turyshev. as opposed to theoretical technologies which are a long way from becoming reality. given that, 'can be done right now, affordably' is far superior to 'might be possible one day, cost unknown'

Light sails are being flown in space, but they are barely controllable. Sundiver has never been tested in space , let alone, close to the sun. Inverse square is also another reason light sails don't come up with allot of velocity. PMsail is not theoretical, it has been demonstrated to produce thrust (drag) in a simulated solar wind vis-a-vis an ion thruster in the laboratory Dr. Turyshev I think would be better served by gaining high velocity by method of the Parker Solar Probe (gravity assist). ...current velocity 192 km/second. KH

@@kevinhambsch9201 Both types of technologies can be researched. But the inverse square law thing is the reason why the sundiver gets close to the sun, the closer you get your power increases quadratically - so you get really close, get a ton of speed, then use that momentum to carry you out.

There is a tech demonstrator of a plasma sail cubesat called Windrider that aims to achieve a flyby of Jupiter in 30 days on a near hyperbolic trajectory- its one of the coolest things in spaceflight I've ever seen. I think once that happens people will finally get it, some people apparently need to be shocked out of the rut. Similar to those who assumed rocket boosters could never propulsively land and be reused, then suddenly Falcon 9 is doing it weekly now. The plasma sail was discovered in 2005- NIAC phase 1 and 2, to think that nothing further has been done with it by NASA since is so disheartening. I think the fact that it needs to be deployed beyond Earth's magnetosphere to demonstrate the concept is a huge factor in that sadly. It took a long while for NASA to adapt the solar sail which was finally proven in LEO by Planetary Society and just now getting NASA missions. I think momentum and awareness is slowly gaining though, the Dynamic Soaring paper made a huge impact and Fraser even interviewed Professor Higgins about it 8 months ago where he mentions the plasma sail used for dynamic soaring maneuvers. I can imagine Breakthrough Initiatives people also being really interested in it for example for their mission if they don't know already I can only hope that once the tech is demonstrated and people are suddenly aware that we have this new capability now that they start making fast flyby missions of the most low hanging fruit - ʻOumuamua flyby and imaging, Triton's flyby and imaging to reveal its unseen side, Neptune, Uranus and its moons, Pluto, Charon, Sedna, Eris, Makemake, Haumea, atmospheric probes into the gas giants, close flyby of all the Galilean moons, etc. NASA loves to do flybys so here's a propulsion method that finally makes sense to make as many as they want on a yearly basis to every world in the solar system I think they would love that, especially the outer planet community, it's such an enabling technology with endless applications and uses for manned and unmanned spaceflight I can think of.

Money? What money? I have a feeling that they have stuff that's waaaayy better

Yeah. It was mentioned in the video and here's an entire interview about it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-vZhDbzdqAWQ.html

@@kuingul Cheers, thanks for the link. I missed that one.

The Southern University of the Moon 😁👌

Ehh there's not gonna be any demand for that level of energy in 100 years, plenty of much lower hanging fruit.. I would reconsider

Yes, let's diassamble mercury and just build a big telescope :) it is not impossible, but we don't have a presence there or any infrastructure for doing this right now.

Unless you're thinking of cannoning the craft off Earth, Humanity's energy generation as a whole is to the tune of 0.000000000000000000000000000000001% (I think I put 30 zeroes in there, add two for the %-sign, and you have the Humanity vs Sun energy per area output ballpark.), so the important thing is using the Sun. Everything else is very much not very much 😉

Hi Sedit, I've interviewed Dr. Kipping a view times now. Here's the most recent time we talked: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Rx1276dpHe4.html

Hold tight, I've got another episode coming talking about chasing down Oumuamua.

From what I understand it would be more like a parachute or umbrella.

sorry spelt Dr Turyshev's name incorrectly

Awesome!

I don't understand. You can see the gravitational lens from any angle, but ones close to the ecliptic will be easier to reach.

Agreed. I can't wait for future missions like this.

Bad juju!

Hah, on it.
