      @slome815 5 лет назад +25

      @Martin G Yeah, like they are not shielded by the metal around them. on the inside there's a shaft, on the outside a groove, there is no way they will bne damaged by radiation. O-rings and other rubber seals are used in countless aplications and when used properly they will last for a very long time. Take the seals in a car gearbox, often they are below the oil level, and yet a leak between the gearbox and the driveshaft is almost unheard of.
      Those flimsy rings have been sealing stuff for decenia and they work fine.

    • @gonzomuse
      @gonzomuse 5 лет назад +8

      @Martin G How much radiation do you think is up there? As has been demonstrated recently a small air leak isn't a big deal on the ISS, and it certainly isn't "life threatening" unless it's completely ignored. Rubber is used to seal air gaps everywhere, not just on the ISS.

      it's the same pressure as on earth at sea level, i just looked it up.
      it surprised me a bit, though, you could propably get away with running a spacecraft at just 70% or so of that (the pressure you have on a 3000m mountain) and save conciderably in weight. it feels so counter inhtuitive, that submarinest have to me much stronger than an actual spaceship.

    So, let’s be clear. Two tiny “O” rings stand between safe operation and catastrophic explosive decompression. Two tiny “O” rings. It even allows for the shaft to be able to turn so as to initiate the raising or lowering of the covers. Just that fact alone tells you that it can’t be airtight. And there’s one word that is not mentioned in any of this: VACUUM.
    If this was actually subjected to a vacuum test using the claimed internal pressure of the “ISS” and the vacuum level surrounding it, well, it would fail immediately. You cannot use rubber seals anywhere in a vacuum as they would fail because of outgassing from the rubber.
    As Pettit(?) claims, if a leak occurred, there would be a drop in pressure and there would probably be a plan- which he didn’t know- which would be implemented and would probably require a spacewalk to fix.
    Sorry folks, but if a leak occurred everything and everyone would cease to exist in the blink of an eye.

      @@stephendaskey5128 Well, since you seem convinced you are right, I'll explain how you are wrong:
      "If this was actually subjected to a vacuum test using the claimed internal pressure of the “ISS” and the vacuum level surrounding it, well, it would fail immediately." -
      The internal pressure of the ISS is standard atmospheric pressure - 14.7 psi. Since the pressure around the ISS is very near 0 psi, the pressure differential is 14.7 psi. O-rings can withstand pressure differentials of several hundred psi.
      "You cannot use rubber seals anywhere in a vacuum as they would fail because of outgassing from the rubber." -
      If you use the wrong rubber then yes, it will outgas and fail. There are many different formulations of rubber and methods of making and treating it. Some of them do have major outgassing issues in a vacuum, but some do not, such as the high-vacuum fluoroelastomer O-Rings that anybody can order from McMaster-Carr. Naturally, NASA chose an O-ring material that can withstand high vacuums.
      "if a leak occurred everything and everyone would cease to exist in the blink of an eye." -
      Exactly how would "everything cease to exist in the blink of an eye"? As mentioned in the video, it would be a leak. You ever have a leak in a tire, or inflatable pool float? I have, and it's never caused a "catastrophic explosive decompression" and there's no reason it would on the ISS. If the O-ring suddenly completely disintegrated, it would likely leave a gap with an area less than a 1/2 inch hole. The ISS has a pressurized volume of over 32,000 cubic feet, it would take quite a while for enough air to escape out of a half inch hole before it became a problem, plenty of time to seal off the cupola. Add to that the fact that a failed O-ring would not suddenly completely disintegrated, but would actually develop an even smaller leak.
      Of course, someone with "40 years experience..." should know all of that.

    O-rings that move about are really not a big deal.
    For example, any SCUBA regulator will have at least one O-ring that has 200 bars (3000 psi) on one side and 10 bars (150 psi) on the other, with a movable tube in the middle that, when in use, will move hundreds of times per minute. That thing will last for years without having to be replaced.
    Compare this to the space station, which has 1 bar (15 psi) on one side and 0 bar on the other, and whose shaft moves what? 4-5 times per day? Sounds like a vacation compared to a SCUBA regulator...

      as i commented earlier, when you put space superstitions aside you realize that it is not as extreme as you think. the difference between in and out of the space station is really only 1 atm (15 psi). So the nearly 3000psi difference mentioned above is imo more impressive.

      I have always found it odd that the general public is "scared" by the media about space being airless and how dangerous a hard vacuum is but they seldom mention the really scary things about space. Radiation ubiquitous and *LOTS* of it and dynamic temperature differentials that occur often and repeatedly. Hundreds of degrees in the span of an hour. Velocity differentials of many thousands of miles per hour between so many whizzing objects seen and unseen. 60 miles up you only have a 1 atm pressure change which is the same as a depth of 32 feet under water. Scary pressure changes are what submarines are all about.
      Outer space is a challenging environment but not usually in the way most folks seem to perceive it.

    • @MrCoolguy425
      @MrCoolguy425 3 года назад +1

      The reason why he brushes it off, is that a small leak in the ISS would not be very dangerous. (I’m talking leaks that are less than 2 inches) because inside the ISS is an atmosphere of 1 atm (14 psi) so a leak of 1 inch will only have a pound force of 14. (Considering the pressure differential is 1 atm - 0 atm because space is a vacuum)
      So you would be able to deal with that temporarily pretty easily. Thinking that it is a huge deal is like thinking that because you filled a tire to 30 psi it is going to explode if it gets a hole in it, when in reality it will just give a small hiss while air escapes until the pressure differential between ambient air and the tire is 0.
      So a small leak on the ISS could be brushed off. The only difference is that instead of changing your tire and putting a new one on, you have to fix your tire while on the road.

      CockatooDude Whoa...
      I guess that's a possibility--but considering that there is no air to fight against such a movement or anything really, why would doing it more slowly help at all, in terms of not applying any centripetal force? Well wait, nvm I think you are right.
      If it bangs on the window hard, that could easily create more movement than a slower, more controlled motion. Touche.

    I realize how amazing the main topic of this video is; However the greatest point of enjoyment for me started at 5:42, where you see an engineer starting to realize for the first-time that a design he created was currently being used on The ISS. It appears to me that he is holding back his excitement while the conversation is taking place and the event is being recorded. Those moments where you get to see other people experiencing joy always seems to overshadow just about everything else. It's always a pleasure to get "SmarterEveryDay", especially when the process brings such joy to others.

      Yeah, there was some aircraft worth hundreds of millions which got broken cause one of the idiots used imperial system and noone checked it. :D
      But using imperial units simply doesn't work. It doesn't. You say you are engineer? Convert one liter to one cubic decimeter. It's 1:1. Now convert 1 gallon to 1 sqaure feet. Some online coversion tools says it's 0.2614. But when you convert 0.2614 sqaure feets back to gallons, you don't get one gallon, you get 0,9997 of gallon. Which would be HUGE miscalculation in something like spacecraft.
      Imperial units are remains of the medieval ages. Absolutely unusable in the modern days, completely unreliable for engineers. It was made to measure how big is your field and how much crop you grew. Not for advanced mathematics and unit conversions... Not for space travel. :D
      So, yeah, since America DID manage to get a shuttle out of the atmosphere, it means they were not using imperial units.
