@@chuckh4077Both, but Event Horizon's first scenes were already questionable. I was hoping The Expanse was on here. Especially after mentioning high G's in space and how they deal with that in The Expanse series.
IMO; probably the best “How Real is It?” video that Insider has done. Some of the experts they bring in mix in their opinions while making it seem like facts and although they are mostly right, there is room for other experts to contradict those experts (and sometimes they do,) this is the most accurate expert they have ever had. She’s all facts and it coincides with all of the other astronauts experience as well. MORE ASTRONAUTS PLEASE!!! 🚀
My wife and kids met her at a local event a couple of months ago while I was out of town. They bought her book for me and she signed it. I haven’t read it yet though. My wife says she was super cool and nice to the kids.
For the ones who haven't seen Guardians of the Galaxy. The only reason why he didn't die when his face froze up is because (Peter Quill) is only half human. The other part is "Celestial" (super human abilities/almost god like)
The First Man footage… Using the real footage was incredible - and made possible because NASA put *AMAZINGLY* high quality cameras and film on/in the Saturn V to record every possible (with the technology of the day) angle for study later. Notably, the footage of the ring dropping away - the film canister for that camera was then dropped away a few moments later, and made to survive reentry, to be caught by a waiting ship in the ocean. There was no live video downlink like SpaceX has with their modern systems.
Fun fact: NASA's own research (on dogs, chimps and one unfortunate technician named Jim Le Blanc) tells us that even a normal human would _probably_ recover mostly unharmed after 1-2 minutes in vacuum, albeit _not_ immediately. And of course Peter Quill is :). (great video though, fun to hear about this stuff from someone that actually did it)
I read an article where a reporter got to use the simulator for the MMU. They first put him, I think, 300 yards from the shuttle, but with no orbital mechanics. Just flat free fall. That wasn't too difficult. Then they turned on orbital mechanics. Of course, he ended up nowhere near the shuttle. Even a few hundred yards, it make a huge difference.
Part of the Multi-Axis test was for if a thruster bank malfunctioned (as it did on early Apollo missions) or the system went haywire and begun spinning you in all directions, you'd be able to function and hopefully properly assess your problem and trouble-shoot.
I don’t know much about space, but I AM an experienced water and sewage treatment engineer. I’ve rated scenes in 3 films. In “Batman Begins”, if they poked a hole in a water main, there would have been a geyser that flooded the basement, drowning all the bad guys. In “Shawshank Redemption”, the opposite would have been true. When he poked a hole in a non pressurized sewage line, there would NOT have been a geyser. Finally, “Finding Nemo”. Nemo would have been shredded going through the treatment plant.
My memory of it needs to be refreshed some myself, but how do you feel about how things were in The Dark Knight Rises? Bane was sorta in the sewers in some fashion, and you had things like the "follow him" scene where Commissioner Gordon got washed down the pipes so to speak. I was also a little confused by the area that Bane and Batman fight in, why it looked like that, the purpose of it and such. Was it some kind of cistern that just wasn't (remotely) full?
23:18 "Don't open that! It's an alien planet! Is there AIR!? YOU DON'T KNOW!!" ... still is, hands down, one of the best - and scientifically accurate - lines in the history of all sci-fi media.
I expected a 9/10 because of the over-the-top acting and at times unprofessional behavior by the astronauts. But for technical details it's 10/10 obviously, as this literally happened.
5:50 a very small amount of damage to the Shuttle Columbia heat shield on the wing is why it fell apart during re entry.. despite nasa knowing foam from the fuel tank had damaged it during take off.. my friend lost his father bc of their negligence
12:00 On thing I noticed is that they used dust clouds coming off the tires in atmosphere (not sure how much of it was IRL vs CGI). Since the moon has no atmosphere, the dust coming off the tires doesn't billow, spread as much, or slow down like it does in the clip.
First Man is a frightening bit of a story. It basically paints that mission as a broken man signing up for a low chance of survival mission because of his personal grief. Would love to get some psych on that.
Man, that editing at 20:18 was no bueno. That wasn't the 3rd stage lighting, it was the 2nd S-II stage, after the first stage (S-IC) was jettisoned. The ring coming off was the skirt that protected the 5 J2 engines from staging. The 3rd stage would have been the S-IVB, after they were already going horizontal
In episode 2F09 when Itchy plays Scratchy’s skeleton like a xylophone, he strikes the same rib twice in succession, yet he produces two clearly different tones. I mean, what are we to believe, that this is some sort of a magic xylophone or something? Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.
So disappointing that the guest did not debunk the whole freezing in the vacuum of space thing, all of the fluids on the surface of your body would actually boil away, because boiling doesn't have to be from temperature, it can also be from lack of pressure. And vacuum is actually a great insulator, which means that your body would cool extremely slowly, only by radiating heat away, there is nothing to conduct or convect heat away. It would have been really great to have the Guardians 3 clip be followed by the scene in the expanse where a person intentionally does a hard vacuum Transit from one spacecraft to another and barely manages to survive, because it portrays everything extremely accurately
About interstellar as "experience Kerbal pilot" I can say, the likelyhood the stations spins exactly with the center of the airlock in the center of the rotation is basically zero.. if you cant bring the other vehicle to stop spinning by itself, its basically lost.
i think that's the biggest problem with that movie, the main character seems completely oblivious to very basic principles (of course that's because the audience is ignorant of them) then again maybe it simply depicts a near future NASA budget where basic training isnt affordable.
If you do another of these I'd love to see an astronaut react to Marooned (1969) Moonraker (1979) Starflight: The Plane That Couldn't Land (1983) Capricorn One (1977) Apollo 18 (2011) Moontrap (1988) Space Cowboys (2000) For All Mankind (TV Series 2019-) 2010: The Year We Make Contact (1984) Space Brothers (TV Series 2012-2014) Outland (1981) Journey to the Far Side of the Sun (1969) Moon Zero Two (1969) Life (2017)
The one detail missed with Star Lord is him being half Celestial, which is obviously a departure from reality but also a big factor in his physiology and recovery.
16:03 Isn't that Scott Glenn? 16:30 Isn't that Dennis Quaid? 16:36 Isn't that Lance Henriksen? And so on... a lot of famous actors in a movie I haven't heard about 😁
Regarding that rover. After playing ungodly amounts of Mass effect, I'm very confident I have mastered the skills to drive one of those. I was very good at flipping them over :P
Clearly didnt showcase to Nicole the scene where clooney dies in gravity. Wouldve netted a 0. Thats bonkers the way that was okayd like nobody questioned the ‘pull’ of space like that
I thought this for years but was wrong. Watch it again, _very_ carefully, and the scene's correct (just badly edited/shot). She doesn't stop basically, they're _both_ still moving so his kinetic energy is contributing to their _total_ KE (but without freeze-framing/rewatching it certainly _looks_ like she'd stopped and he'd stopped relative to her meaning cutting him loose would make no difference - in that sense it's still not a _well made_ scene IMO).
There's one important aspect they miss out in space movies (except for Apollo 13): the use of checklists before starting a procedure. Digital or paper checklists are very-very necessary to prevent forgetting a step, and to alert to you cautions and warnings "before" starting-up, shutting-down, taking-off, landing, operating or manipulating any system. Airline pilots use checklists during every flight... so do astronauts.
I hate how a lot of media portrays how humans exposed to the vacuum of space are affected and how long till death. Generally they don’t take into consideration pressure changes and thermodynamics. In fact if you were exposed to the vacuum you would actually start heating up fast instead of cooling down. The chemical processes in the body are still happening which creates heat energy but since the body is in a vacuum the heat has no where to go essentially making your body one big heat insulator. Freezing only sets in after a couple of hours/ days after death and after the body’s chemical processes have slowed down or completely stopped. On top of that the bloating and expansion of the body is dependent on the change in pressure. You can absolutely buy time for an individual in the vacuum of space if you slowly lowered the pressure in the airlock to a suitable level and then exposed them to a vacuum.
What she says about the heatshield and friction is ok, but there is more to it. The heat is not an unavoidable danger, it's an asset. If you want to land an orbiting object, you just have to decelerate it. On the moon, with no atmosphere, you would use rocket fuel which is very expensive to transport from the Earth up. But on the Earth we have a free way to decelerate : the atmosphere. What the capsule does is it maximizes the way it uses air to decelerate without having to consume precious fuel. It's not really friction that makes the capsule heating : at these enormous speed, the pressure of the air on the heatshield makes the air heating : not the friction, the pressure (when you compress a gaz, it's getting hotter : ideal gas law PV=nRT). The air gets so hot that it becomes a plasma : the air never touches the heatshield. The trick is : you exchange kinetic energy with heat energy that you dump into the atmosphere. For this to happen, you have to have a heatshield which stops the heat energy to go into your spacecraft, wasting this p^recious decelerating energy. And it has a nice side effect : it protects the astronauts !
If you were swimming in water and tried to breach the surface, would it not be the case that the 'water glove' effect would apply to the water on all of your body and thus coat your head and maybe even mouth interior (once the mouth is opened) with water? There would be no good way to abruptly 'surface' and gasp for breath. 😮
My favorite was Armageddon when they said "get the halon!" As the station burned. Halo works by removing the O2 from the area killing the fire... why would you have that on a space craft
She forgot to point out that in Passengers, even if the ship lost power, it will continue spinning. A ship that size would take a great amount of reverse thrust to stop it from moving.
The grit, determination and, well, bravery in the early stages of manned space exploration (I will consider the USSR because their cosmonauts were the same) is astonishing. You were practically buying a ticket for space but w/o a guarantee it won't be a 1 way ticket. Lets go Mars!
You probably should include the USSR...since they beat the USA in just about everything for the first several years of space exploration. Eventually we out spent them, but we were behind. Which includes of course them putting the first human in space.
In the case of Galaxy Quest, its not the interaction of astronauts that we see on screen. Its the interaction of actors forced to be astronauts that we see.
22:45 wouldn’t the water hammer effect injure or kill her instantly in this case? If smacking the top of a glass bottle can blow the bottom out, then what would realistically happen to her in this situation?
I guess it depends on where exactly she is located in the event and the exact acceleration. If she were near the pools floor, then the water would likely squish her. But I think she is floating in the middle of the bubble of water in this scene, so she might not hit any hard surface and get hurt that way. Then again, the water could probably get up to really high pressure for a short moment, no? Might not be deadly, but could certainly hurt any soft tissue like eyes, eardrums and such. Best analogy: imagine swimming in a pool, then suddenly a truckload of water is being dropped on top your head. Fun? But hey, weightless diving sounds cool. Swimming is probably less fun, because the water would always stick to your face and try to suffocate you.
After years of watching these videos, to get two 10/10 comments is awesome. She was fun to listen to, get this lady more often!

This channel seems to do the same 5 space movies over and over and over and over again. It’s annoying
An astronaut that lists Galaxy Quest as a favorite movie? Completely unexpected. And Awesome!
I mean, I heard one astronaut interview (forget who it was) where they went with Talladega Nights. Astronauts like comedy too!
Its like when military submariners love the comedy Down Periscope.

Underrated and super funny
True (one of my all-time favorites), but the Real Stuff was brilliant, too.
Absolutely hilarious movie to me for some reason. I love that movie.
The bigger problem with the fire extinguisher to get to another space station is that orbital mechanics don't work that way

Christopher Nolan is probably in tears at Interstellar only getting 7/10
That was harsh indeed.

6:08 90%+ of the heat from re-entering the atmosphere is from compression not friction.

Why does the title of the video say more? You mean she actually appeared in a previous Insider video of this series and we didn't know it?
🤦♂️
She did
I mean, _we_ knew it but we're pretty special.
First statement I disagree with was the interstellar “I just don’t think it is possible “. No it’s necessary--coop

This lady is awesome
To the films credit, Starlord is only half human and half celestial which helped him survive the affects of the power stone😁
Now we need to know what parts of “Rocket Man” relate to her crew experiences.
NASA employing chimps for orbital operations as a cost saving measure?
It's important to note that Star-Lord is literally a demi-god(small g), so he's more resilient and durable than a normal human.
From a realism standpoint, it's not important to note at all.
I was about to complain that they did my boy Fred Randall dirty, by not including him in the clips. but she saved at the end!
Honorable mention, 2001: A Space Odyssey.
22:45 wouldn’t the water hammer effect injure or kill her instantly in this case? If smacking the top of a glass bottle can blow the bottom out, then what would realistically happen to her in this situation?
I guess it depends on where exactly she is located in the event and the exact acceleration. If she were near the pools floor, then the water would likely squish her. But I think she is floating in the middle of the bubble of water in this scene, so she might not hit any hard surface and get hurt that way. Then again, the water could probably get up to really high pressure for a short moment, no? Might not be deadly, but could certainly hurt any soft tissue like eyes, eardrums and such.
Best analogy: imagine swimming in a pool, then suddenly a truckload of water is being dropped on top your head. Fun?
But hey, weightless diving sounds cool. Swimming is probably less fun, because the water would always stick to your face and try to suffocate you.
Crazy gorgeous and crazy intelligent. Very dangerous combo
nicole scott, astronaut. kinda catchy
@4:34 he is not human. he is a mixed human and alien child. he also has some superhuman abilities
You guys forgot to feature The Expanse.
I guess you need to invite her again.
Cant believe 'Ghosts of Mars' wasnt included...
