    You realise that the radiation levels from Jupiter on Europa are very intense, and would kill a human there after a day of exposure?

      Hi bro.. Greetings from India 🇮🇳
      I wanna ask something...
      How Jupiter is responsible for radiations on its moons??? Especially on Europa ... How Jupiter emit radiation... Is there any proper explanation??? I am curious about this... Can u explain it???

      @@deepakthakur838 from my understanding the planet is not emitting radiation, it’s capturing the radiation from the sun in its magnetic field. Jupiter’s magnetic field is huge.

      Water is a really good insulator against radiation. One way in the plans for man mission to Mars to keep astronots safe from cosmic radiation is to store all the water on the outside of the space craft

      So we can say that every planet captures solar radiation in its magnetic field??? Like in earth, Saturn, neptune, Uranus
      Or it is the case only seen in Jupiter???

    • @youtubewatcher759
      @youtubewatcher759 8 месяцев назад

      Sorry for late reply. Due to strength a type of magnetic field that Jupiter is creating, it's capturing more radiation than other planets. Refer to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetosphere_of_Jupiter
      Earth's captures radiation, but much weaker to 'hold' the radiation. We see this happen with the northern lights, or the aurora borealis.

    Money? $$$$$$ How many TRILLIONS of DOLLAR$$$$$$$$ would it cost to send astronauts to Europa (and bring them safely back to Earth) when the MOON mission NASA wants to do but cannot fund will cost well over a hundred billion dollars? Whose TAXES do you raise for that? I sure as hell do not have a trillion dollars.

    NASA's biggest problem as you mentioned is funding. We need to get more science-literate politicians in office who see the value of such a mission. We need to redirect money from the worldwide war machine into interplanetary exploration. Since Appolo(and even then, really) NASA has operated on a shoestring budget with everything going to the lowest bidder. Think of where we could be if NASA had even half of the military budget.

      There are a lot of religious organizations that feel that all that money should be going into their coffers. They have the political clout to arrest the progress of anything they see as a financial threat, and all of science qualifies as such.

      1. What do you mean by "at all costs". AVOIDING going there would actually SAVE us money. Space exploration is EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE.
      2. Do you mean to protect US from the life there or to protect the life there from us? You were ambiguous?

      @@haydenisanerd4958 I'd like to think us Humans would be like the Orcs of the 40K Universe. There's a theory that the reason why Aliens haven't contacted us is since we're a very violent species towards each other. Although I'd like to think that Aliens have already contacted us but our Governments are keep it a secret to prevent panic. But I also swing on the theory that the Government is just making up false Alien sightings to keep us distracted. But I don't think you've really thought about the long lasting consequences of us encountering alien life, it would shake the core religious foundations all of us hold dear here on Earth. They're not "nutjobs" they just know that there will be devastating consequences. Chill out and learn about other perspectives.

    It's not that easy. From my understanding, the frozen layer of ice is way deeper than the deepest hole drilled even on the earth. In addition, radiation levels are bad for any human missions. We need more data and that's what we are doing with the clipper launching later this year.
