Huge thanks to Dr. Elliot Hawkes and the rest of the group - Charles Xiao, Chris Keeley, Dr. Morgan Pope, and Dr. Günter Niemeyer - for having us at UCSB and showing us their high-flying jumper. This work was partially supported by an Early Career Faculty Grant from NASA’s Space Technology Research Grants Program.

Jokes on you because I pirated a scientific journal and already know about it.

@Rohit-jv7nl Год назад

the real question is is this legally a firearm

@ghostson1464

hey mab here

@GarvNirmal

Yo what is wrong with the comments 😭😭😭

If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You most look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

Have they looked at efficiency loss from jumping on a compressible surface, like loose sand? I would think that would be a limiting factor in an environment like the moon, where there is a large quantity of fine particles on the surface.

@TimeBucks Год назад

That's just amazing

@Ajarpopcorn2304 Год назад

Fun fact: that's scary

@kansei_ Год назад

Baptiste from overwatch did it first

I'm not sure why, but such a small and simple thing made this one of my more favorite videos of yours. Especially once you pointed out how invaluable this would be on other planets with little to no atmosphere. I wonder if something like this could also implement a passive propeller that would slow its decent 🤔

@CriticalMonkey623 Год назад

So, to be clear, if I jump right as I fart, that wouldn't technically class as a jump. I would be "taking off" as it were. Fascinating...

@chir0pter Год назад

I love engineering like this- simple structures deployed in novel ways, designed rigorously and exploiting particular materials to achieve a breakthrough result.

I love how simple this robot is and yet this exact combination of mechanisms is groundbreaking.

@unboundaki Год назад

That clip at

@scoobydoobies Год назад

I would love to see this combined with that company creating glider drones to deliver to hospitals. They use a giant slingshot currently to get in the air, but that means they can only launch from a dedicated setup spot

@kodizzie3827 Год назад

I've taken suspension springs out of cars and every time I would treat it as if it was a loaded gun. The full scale version of this jumper is absolutely terrifying. I wouldn't want to be anywhere near that thing when it was fully compressed.

@MouseGoat Год назад

Would love to see a 10 times bigger one, that thing sound like it could send stuff in orbit! O_O

@vx8952 Год назад

That is an incredibly detailed video into jumping and I love it. It would be amazing to see jumpers on the moon or mars as that is a highly efficient method of travel.🔥

@CSMtheMariner Год назад

If we got enough likes together would Derek commission the 10x larger version? Deployable glide surfaces + parachute + camera package is my vote for the payload.
