      Our sleep schedule will adjust. There have been studies done with people locked away with no natural light and no clocks and there bodies had a totally different circadian rhythm. Our bodies will adjust to the days inn Mars pretty easily, especially as the difference is only 2.7%

      Same. I always wonder what our purpose is, and how we are merely a speck of a speck of a speck of a speck of dust compared to the size of the universe. It's dumbfounding, and it makes me wonder why we're even here. What the purpose is. I guess the purpose is to be happy, believe in God if you do, and if you don't, don't. Love everyone, and declare to yourself that everything matters- that every little thing makes an enormous difference in the world. It's hard to find purpose sometimes, and that's understandable. But we have to keep searching.

    Has anyone ever took the time to look at the description and how much effort he puts into these videos? There's over 30 websites he used, at least half of them are articles that he probably fully read. Not to mention, he has to make a script in a way that the average person can understand that lasts up to 18 minutes. And finally, someone has to edit everything he says, as well as add all the extra scenery videos like the Earth at the right spot that he says. I love this channel.

    I think, if we have colonies on Mars, even international ones, they should have at least a basic set of rules/laws and some basic organizational system for starting out, set up before they even leave Earth. Starting a new colony would be a hard life, and it would make it harder if the colonists have to completely reinvent society from scratch as some random, disorganized collection of people. If they have at least some basic system, even if they end up changing it later, it would give them something to start from.

Discrimination has little to nothing to do with what a person does/says. As long as people are still able to say "You're not me.", there will possibly always be problems.

    • @fortnight5677
      @fortnight5677 2 месяца назад

      Not the same thing.
      Your body is simply your body. The teleportation you think about is an external tool. It's not the same as your own cells replacing.
      Also, deconstructing your body and rebuilding it on another place is probably the less scary thing about teleportation.
      Imagine teleporting and then hitting Earth's surface with incredible speed. Because guess what, we not only move around Sun but also get dragged by the Sun while it journeys around Milky Way.
      Things are mostly not stationary in space, because everything flies around and drags and gets dragged by stuff. When you go into space, you can't be perfectly stationary because you will eventually get dragged / pulled by another large body until you go away fast enough.
      And obviously if you manage to escape their gravitational pull, you are still floating through space and actually moving fast, continuing your journey around Milky Way.
      You were never truly stationary, you never stopped. You are not even going to know if you have actually managed to stop and waited on an exact point of space, even if you were on space, away from anything.
      Movement and stopping is relative on vacuum of space, without gravitational pulls. Who is to say that you are accelerating to reach a planet? Maybe you were going too fast and your acceleration actually helps you slow down when looking at the bigger picture, but your only point of reference is Earth and Sun and that Planet you are trying to reach, so you think you are going fast.

    Some people say we're born too late to explore the earth, and to early to explore space. I say we're just about right to explore our solar system.

      @@OpiiCat Compared to other pandemics through history? COVID is pretty forgettable. I mean, it's here and now so we have to deal with it, but we would look like a bunch of whiny brats to any generation that had to deal with a real pandemic in history.

      @@nekad2000 I think the main issue with COVID is that while we sit on our thrones of silicon, glass fiber, and radio waves, a relatively meager disease managed to sit us down and slap us around.
      It speaks volumes about the public, governments, cultures, idiocy, and the limitations of our capabilities.
      So yes, forgettable in its fatality. But major in its social effects and as a crack in the window of our illusions of power.
