Not quite. During the moon landing, one of the people that went to the moon did not get to descend to the surface so he stayed on the ship and orbited the moon. He was wayyyyyy farther away than this guy was.
@@marcosanchez487 no, you cant hear anything in space, sure you can see, but its him, can only listen to the radio, anything happens, he is fucccccccked. Also he cant move, he just sits there, floating, 100m from his friend, hundreds of kilometres from anyoneelse
@@Ghost-uo2wv You don't use more with scarier. Grammar mistake. It should've been written as, " Sometimes silence is scarier than disturbance." I get what you mean though.
@@thewatcher2305 Why would they think like that? Astronaut/Cosmonaut return rate is VERY high. There is a very small chance you are going to die as an astronaut.
@@thewatcher2305 it's been a long while since astronauts haven't returned though...they've been travelling back and forth the ISS many times now that they don't even display every crew launch on the news because it's not as significant anymore. Survival chances are pretty high compared to what they used to be.
Imagine that was you, and you turned around to look out into the void, without the shuttle to remind that you are not alone. And then, when you turn back around...it's gone.
He probably became the loneliest human of all time when he went out there. Thousands of miles away from the planet, over 100m away from his closest support, totally and utterly alone in the void 😰
Michael Collins was loniest Person ever. He was Part of the Apollo 11 Crew but stayed in the Rocked while the others were on the moon. He was officially the Person furthest away from the next Person - ever
It's physically impossible to move without pushing against something! A jet ski requires water to propel itself through the medium. A jet ski , out of water, in the void/vacuum of 'space' wouldn't move an inch. Not even sound can travel without something to vibrate between. Don't believe the Nasa hype!🏌🏿♂️
You know what scares me more than the silence.Imagine him looking up and down into an empty void even behind the shuttle and the Earth.Just an endless empty void for the naked eye.
Yee, endlessly floating around the planet having the void of space behind you almost give me the feeling that it would feel like being in deep open water. 🥴😬 but imagine falling into space with no planet to orbit around. Just endlessly falling deeper into the void of nothing 🥲🥴
@@By_Vee_ you wouldnt even know that you are endlessly falling.Have nothing around you to determin where you are you are just in an dark,cold and empty void which might not even end.
noone wants to go to space that has an actual brain alot of these scientists are fakes anyway, just like the fake photos they release to the general public.
The second you get lose in space, you’re on a time limit. I think that’s what’s makes it scary. The impending doom you know you’ll face, but not seeing any help for literally hundreds of miles
But in the water, you can control your movements, where you go, how you move. In space, if that jet pack doesn't work, there is no way to move. You just float, no matter what you do...
Fun fact: If you get lost in space you would be lost forever in a second because in space you move at 10,000mi a second so with you moving away from the space shuttle and the space shuttle moving away from you,you are being left in space forever at 20,000mi a second
Using my imagination I can tell I'd be shiiting bricks up there😂 damn that must've been scary to say the least,you wouldn't scream coz you're the only who can hear it😂😂😂😂 you'd just either accept your fate or make a plan to get back...damn..this is definitely a phobia of mine as well as going deep into the ocean.
This is 10000% for sure something that will NEVER EVER happen to me, yet it's my most deepest fear. That movie with Clooney and Bullock was just horrifying to watch.
Except he wasn’t sitting in silence he most likely was in constant contact with either the shuttle or ground control or both. I would think the spookiest thing would be thinking if he couldn’t get back to the shuttle what would the small amount of time he had left be like.
That is one of the reasons why Apollo 13 was so incredible. They had to slingshot themselves around the back of the moon and during that time no lights on or very minimal lights and complete radio silence. 😳
It’s not scary This is considered the space shuttle program’s most famous achievements, especially for space shuttle challenger. “I made a one small step for Neil, but this is a heck of a big leap for me”
This reminds of my mate asking me if i rather live forever or die today. Obviously i picked live forever, but i couldn't imagine flying through space knowing that everyone i ever known is gone and im alone. Very spooky
I think I would have taken a fishing reel with some line attached to the shuttle. If the thrusters failed It would only take the smallest of a pull on the line to bring you back.
Bro imagine the silence, like he would literally not hear a single thing, silence on earth would be more noisy than silence in space as it has no atmosphere.
i think the life support, computer, and thermal control systems on the suit would make a bit of noise, but if those were temporarily shut off to make complete silence, you would actually hear your own heartbeat
If anyone starts to float away from your space station and you have a wrench, throw the wrench behind you so you can propel yourself towards your spaceship. Alien 101
I awoke in a nightmare where I was alone in space. Dark space. I turned to my left and I saw a beach. I swam with all determination toward the light. Really was a scary dream.
Isolated in the vast space, just thinking about it seems terrifying, i mean just what if the space shuttle lost communication with you and are left to float endlessly in an unimaginably huge space without any scope of retrieval and rescue ? 😮
The fear of becoming lost like that is THE reason I went from "I'm gonna be an astronaut" to "ehh... I'm not sure what I want to do" as a kid. I remember one day that idea got in my head, and just could not shake it. Had a nightmare about it, and then from there on I couldn't imagine being an astronaut without feeling like I would be certain to drift off. I mean, I was pretty little, not like I'd wasted a ton of time preparing, but I remember going from super excited about space to being super bummed that I knew I now had an insurmountable, paralyzing fear.
@@shleemlington699 - I know none float around randomly. But straps fail. Harnesses fail. There's always the chance. Not to mention, I can be an idiot sometimes, and I'm most terrified of myself doing something wrong that will lead to my death. To be clear, in the dream it was because the clasp broke while working and ended up pushing myself back enough where I couldn't grab back on. Also, fears don't have to be rational. I have a phobia of the dark. I know there aren't creatures waiting for me, but that doesn't keep me from running up the stairs after I turn off the lights (or trying desperately to play it cool, in case, you know, the monsters only attack if I show I'm afraid).
I remember this. For safety he stayed close Enough that the shuttle could get to him if There was trouble with the jetpack. The cover of life magazine had amazing shots.
The challenger Space Shuttle launched on a mission in 1986, which carried the first civilian. After the engineers of the main rockets advised against the launch, NASA wanted to go through with it anyway. 73 seconds into flight, the O-rings in the rocket cracked, leading to a hydrogen ignition, and a massive explosion killing all 7 crew members
Bruce McCandless II described the experience: "I was grossly over-trained. I was just anxious to get out there and fly. I felt very comfortable ... It got so cold my teeth were chattering and I was shivering, but that was a very minor thing. ... I'd been told of the quiet vacuum you experience in space, but with three radio links saying, 'How's your oxygen holding out?', 'Stay away from the engines!' and 'When's my turn?', it wasn't that peaceful ... It was a wonderful feeling, a mix of personal elation and professional pride: it had taken many years to get to that point."
