Space Stations: Past, Present, And Future | Answers With Joe 

In fact, I'm pretty sure that it is exactly what all wars are! Even the Cold ones.

we rolled a 6. but russia rolled a 2. we both suck, but we won!

YES!

not real Mr evil. not any wars, we tech nerds solve challenges in a race let's race China LOL not

@@intothemaze8865 lol nerds DO get dragged into wars,but they aren't necessary. Wars could still be fought with bows, arrows, swords, horses and pikes, and they would be just as deadly.

Well, let's not forget that it also means "World" (in the broad sense of the word) so it gives it a neat double meaning.

In all Slavic languages, МИР (Mir) is Peace ;)

In olden Polish (it is no longer in use in day to day language) it meant 'prosperity'

"Mir" doesn't exactly mean "peace". The etymology of the word means "no war". That is a very grim cultural background. Retired librarian

They were dropping hints

@M 40 lol yeah we need to be safe and smart for our safety radiation is rlly dangerous but mars is always constantly being hit by radiation so i feel sorry for the future martians or maybe there will be a technology that can block radiation who knows? there a lot of smart geniusis out there to make it possible...

@M 40 Agree. Prestige alone cannot justify a Mars settlement. Under current technology, there is about a 50 percent chance that any person who would make a trip to Mars would die during or soon after it. Maybe with artificial magnetic fields, and speedy magneto-plasma transit it could be doable, but those are a long way off.

I volunteer to go to Antarctica! But I'll settle for the North Pole.

Have you ever played outer worlds? Cos the people you recruit in space stations are just that

The large space habitats such as O'Neill Cylinders, Bernal Spheres and Stanford Toruses are to provide a market and economy in space, and a labor force and infrastructure for manufacturing in space, not just a way station as they can actually be maneuvered to where they are needed. And yes, I'm sure the oldest profession will still prosper but with additional microgravity offerings and more likely to be on call or brothels rather than strolling between docked and berthed vehicles even though skin tight mechanical compression space suits are a distinct possibility over bulky pressure suits. The question is whether telepresence androids or virtual reality will open employment in the field to a broader population and would this remove the human trafficking element of the business.

Kelly Freas, renowned science fiction artist, did a painting of Skylab that is awesome. It was used on the cover of "Analog" magazine and the response was so huge they ended up doing prints for sale. I have one, framed. I also have the "cartoon" from Christian Science Monitor memorializing McAuliffe's death, framed. It's getting old and yellow and I've thought about buying a new print from the artists, but I like having the original up. Retired librarian, and science possibilities fan from birth

"Stan Thornton, who was 17 at the time, won $10,000 after picking up the first piece of Skylab - which fell on his shed." lmao

At the time NASA was all like “ehhhh it’ll be fine, Australia. It will probably burn up in the atmosphere...” yep! No worries mate she’ll be right...!

Now do it with an O'Neill.

Hey thanks man!

Congratulations, Joe actually responded to your comment, not just a like but a real response. ( not sarcasm ) ugh I just realized I'm a Joe fan boy. 😲😲🤣🤣

@@joescott thank you joe You are a big inspiration in my life.

Yeah I know, I'm usually at work. I just happened to be off today, and saw a Joe video alert he's one of the few I follow, and subscribe to

I totally understand what you're going trough. I was 5 years old when Amstrong stepped on the moon and I remember it as if it happened yesterday. That saturday was special, no one in town were doing anything but watching TV, outside it looked like a ghost town. Now at only 3 months from my 55th birthday, if health permits, I look forward to when men will set foot on Mars.

Killua - I forgot about that . . . "We're taking a break. Your schedule is too much."

More like miss communication, but yeah, space mutiny

Not to mention the issues with it when it was launched: "The station was damaged during launch when the micrometeoroid shield tore away from the workshop, taking one of the main solar panel arrays with it and jamming the other main array. This deprived Skylab of most of its electrical power, and also removed protection from intense solar heating, threatening to make it unusable. The first crew was able to save Skylab by deploying a replacement heat shade and freeing the jammed solar panels. This was the first time a repair of this magnitude had been performed in space."

I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Joe done a video on that subject not long ago, talking about the female voice recording. Sounded like she was burning up during reentry yet Russia denied ever having a woman up there at the time

there are 12 Dead Russian Cozmonauts on the MOON from various Missions.

As indicated by certain shortwave comms that were chance picked up by radio amateurs in the West during the 50's and 60's.

@@livethefuture2492 would get us to Mars, though, but then we'd get lost

American's cant seem to just get on board with the metric system.

Oh yes, as an engineer and a mathematics Geek, I totally agree with you. The number of mistakes in manufacturing and engineering related to unit conversion are well documented. In the Netherlands at the Phillips headquarters, there is a giant shutoff valve that was supposed to be manufactured using millimetres, but the American engineering firm used inches and yards, it was shipped via the Panama canal instead of air cargo if it actually manufactured to specification. Just one example of many. Cheers from Canada.

Danielle Spargo it’s ok, we have Joe now!

Chelsea Dodson Thank god for that! 😊

That it is!

For the LAST time, NO (jk, that'd be great)

the gatewayfoundation station is a joke. At least the Von Braun concept. You can't experience weightlessness there nor can you watch the earth without vomiting violently because it is zipping by a few times per minute. Without earth observation and weightlessness you have lost your two only arguments for a Space Station in LEO.

@@3gunslingers the thing is, we don't really know how people would react being in a rotational habitat. We have to find out, and I have yet to see someone being more serious about this kind of concept than them. And with non rotating habitats closer to the center you could easily have the weightlessness you need... and a more pleasent sight on earth. Or you use it just as a stayover for astronauts that a working on a nearby station. Anyway, just calling it a joke isn't really fair, I think. It's only supposed to be a proof of concept after all.

@@rickotap3859 the Gateway foundation proposals are scifi by a long shot. Anyone can draw up some fancy pictures and call them a 'proof of concept'. At least Bigelow has actual test units of their space station ideas built on Earth to guide development.

@@rickotap3859 The "vomiting violently" part was about the quick moving earth outside of the windows, not about the Coriolis effect on humans. _"And with non rotating habitats closer to the center you could easily have the weightlessness you need... and a more pleasent sight on earth."_ That's the very problem I'm talking about. The gateway foundation doesn't plan on any such non-rotating habitats. _"Or you use it just as a stayover for astronauts that a working on a nearby station. "_ Not possible. The fuel needed for ferrying and station keeping would be enormous. This concept station will ONLY demonstrate that you can build a ring in space and rotate it. It will not be a proof of concept of a financial feasible station like they claim. You have to ask yourself: Would you pay to stay there?

@@3gunslingers I do not think that a spacestation rotating at 1-4 rpm (which are the numbers I encountered mostly) would produce a vomit-summoning view. The earth would essentially move like a really slow pendulum. It could maybe be a bit disorienting, but I doubt that you wouldn't be able to get used to that. And yes, they do not seem to plan for a non rotating part for the von Braun, but that doesn't mean that it couldn't be added later, and I think it was planned for the actual Gateway. Although I would need to check that. And no, you wouldn't need a lot of fuel to ferry between stations, as long as they would be in fixed positions relative to each other. You would need to be precise though, or the stations would need to be much closer. In the last case you could also just connect them with a Tether and use clamps with electric rolls or something, so you'd only need a bit of electricity. And surely I would pay for a visit! As long as I could afford it. Don't get me wrong, I will remain skeptical about the gateway Foundation until they actually have something telling in orbit. I am just happy that someone keeps this kind of concept alive, I couldn't care less who actually does it in the end. As long as someone is doing it. Edit: when it comes to proofing that you can build a giant rotating ring with habitats in orbit, that's already a big deal, and would make them being able to rent that place for horrendous prices, which they are already kind of teasing they will. Disgusting, but a valid strategy for Investors, which COULD make it feasible. At least it would proof that their bigger structure is possible.

I am disappointed that the Moon has no habitat by now. That is for sure. I don't get why Bigelow does not privately contract with SpaceX and 'git er dun'

Your image makes me feel so old.

@@whocares2087.1 I know that feel...

The company that puts a small mine on the moon to refine He3 for pickup would return it's investment a thousandfold within a year, it's just that that initial investment would still be something that is out of reach of even the private sector at the moment, but a lot of rich folk are working on it. Both Richard Branson and Paul Allen own companies working on stratospheric launch vehicles while Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos fight it out in the rocket department.

Thank government cutbacks for that.

You are correct

From what I've seen on China uncensored I think they made a good decision.

@@homersimpson9352 It really only hinders progress in what has been an almost entirely non-military project. At the very least an agreement to use the same docking ports so that if the political landscape changes in the future we don't have to once again hash out another unified docking port like we did with Russia and the ESA, or worse, add exponentially more potential points of failure mechanically and logistically through the use of adapters which cost a lot to send up there for the tiny amount of purpose they actually serve. As well, the US govt is just as worried about Russia gaining access to our military technology as anyone else yet we are perfectly capable of playing nice with them when it comes to non-military space applications like the ISS. And collaboration through the ISS does not really affect each other's politics in any way other than to boost pride in a country's scientific prowess. Its up to each partner country to advertise and spin news from the ISS to their own public, so the US wouldn't really have to worry about Chinese influence on the US political landscape, at least not in anyway that the US wouldn't want. Sure, China may have many more than questionable political issues going on in their country (and I know that this is putting it almost too lightly), but excluding them from international collaboration only serves to show them that they should further ignore international requests and pressures and instead go it alone and not listen to international appeal on things. If they were allowed to collaborate it could serve as a stepping stone to opening up collaboration in other areas.

China's space program is technically a military problem, so, the US Government gets a bit cranky

HAN piloted the FORD Falcon.

Yes I agree with you, but why have we not adopted the Von Braun Gateway design concept previously ? The Gateway Foundation appears to be on the right track. Automated construction techniques used on high rise and car production means this design is cost effective and could be built in a few years not generations. We really need the artificial rotational force to replace gravity until we understand how to produce it ourselves. I hope the Gateway Foundation makes this all real sooner rather than later.
