    Don't forget The James Webb Space Telescope. With its spectroscopy it will be able to detect photosynthesis and oxygen on planets outside our solar system if its there. That means it will be able to detect life on distant planets. If life is detected, that could launch the first ever multi generational interstellar space race, even if it doesn't involve humans going at first.

      I think we'll be using probes/drones for a long time yet in that regard. Something this video doesn't mention is they've been having some trouble in testing with the human response to prolonged space travel, for just the planned mars missions. To a whole other system would be even tougher. Its a one way trip, leaving the planet and swift support of your species, forever. That includes Mars until our technology is much better. Which is tough on any sane human.
      Even if we detect something with web it'll be a case of beaming a message over which will take so many decades or centuries to get there and then another few decades or centuries for the response. If there is one, no way to say if its intelligent life we might be detecting. We would likely send a probe anyway even though it might take 5 lifetimes. Space, just the galaxy is incompressible big. One of the proposed explanations to the fermi paradox as well. In that space is so big few species ever even try to explore and colonize it. If as fast as light is truly the limitation then its understandable.

    I remember when India sent a probe to space. The cost was half the amount Real Madrid paid for Gareth Bale. This means that Real Madrid could have bought a less talented player and could have also sent a probe to space.
    Edit: I wrote this comment, went to sleep, woke up this morning and arguments abound. Amazing.
    Anyway I like space, Real Madrid is not my team but I respect them, and Gareth Bale is amazing.

    Damn, now i can't stop thinking about what it would've been like to encounter Antarctica as a Pacific Islander, it would be the opposite of the environment you're used to. Surely would've been seen as significant to them, maybe those who find themselves near the icy shores would think they are dead, that this is some sort of hellish frozen afterlife.

    • @Tinil0
      @Tinil0 2 года назад +103

      They never would've been able to make it sadly. The Southern Ocean is hellish, mostly because after New Zealand there is no more land til antarctica. That means the winds and ocean currents get extreme. Pacific Islanders were prolific navigators and incredible sailors, but their ships just wouldn't stand a chance.

      @@gingerlyglasses444 Oh lord, my huge reply got eaten by goddamn fucking youtube. Sigh. Let me summarize it:
      We have proof they reached South America, but it is doubtful they reached Patagonia, at least from sea. On the other side of the pacific, we obviously know the Maori flourished in New Zealand, but recent archaelogical evidence shows proof of visitation by Polynesians in the Auckland Islands, which are at 50 degrees S. Since modern measurements, Antarctic sea ice has been as far north as 55 degrees S, which is very close. And due to things like the little ice age, which is mostly associated with Europe but actually has some evidence of wolrd wide effects, it's very possible it extended much further in cool periods.
      Finally, a legendary Polynesian explorer Ui-te-Rangiora from the 7th century has oral tales passed down that mention ""a place of bitter cold where rock-like structures rose from a solid sea". That would be pretty huge evidence they made it at least to the sea ice, and possibly antarctica itself...If it werent for the problems translating and interpreting oral folklore and the inherent problems with trusting it as describing actual reality. You would imagine the idea had to come from somewhere though, so the idea of a frozen sea wasn't foreign to them.
      I still highly doubt that they could've made it to the continent, but it's clear from the research I just did that they got further south than I ever knew. The old nicknames for the ocean at those latitudes are the "Roaring Fourties", the "Furious Fifties", and the "Screaming Sixties" because of how terrifying they can be, but at the very least we have some solid proof they made it into the start of the 50s, and possibly further!

      Nuclear energy has the potential to end the energy crisis and everything else you mentioned was a product of it's time.
      I'm not stating that every single thing humanity has done is good, I'm stating that humanity has done far more good than bad. We've powered far more homes with uranium than we've ever destroyed. More lives have been saved due to human ingenuity than are lost because of it. The ONLY outlier the environment and even then every year we're improving and eventually we'll be able to reverse that as well.
      The ISSUE is people like you who hate humanity because you're either oblivious to all the good that goes on in the world that you take for granted or you're too ignorant to care.
      People like you who think that somebody else is the problem and that somebody else needs to fix it are the ones preventing progress. If you GENUINELY think humanity is a problem look at yourself. If you think you're a shitty person, change. If you think you're a good person, try to do better anyway. THATS progress. THAT is what moves humanity forward. Not this self loathing, hateful rhetoric about how the whole of a group should be judged by odd outliers, regardless of the circumstances surrounding them.
      What kind of logic is that anyway? "Oh yeah I COULD improve my own life as well as the lives of others but boohoo some random mustachio in the 40s."
      No, humans are a positive force in the universe. And the fact that your life is so good that you can sit there and text on a device people could have only speculated on only one hundred years ago to complain about how horrible things are is proof of that fact.

I know the Russians are working on TEM and I think the US and China have their own plans also. With far greater efficiency, these rockets could go far further far faster.

    1903 When a Guy with a seemingly impossible dream created a revolutionary invention that changed the course of Human Exploration
    2021 - December 25, literally 118 Years after the discovery of flight. We launched the Largest Space Telescope witnessed in Human History.
    In just the span of a century and almost 2 decades, We went from flying in the Sky to Exploring the Space. Its very praise worthy
    Imagine what would we do in the next decade, or the next century.. Would we be colonizing planets?

    0:05 "set out on the greatest odyssey of exploration ever yet known." Interestingly, the red fox travelled almost as far as we did for most of our history. Beginning in Hungary 2-3 million years ago (about the same time the ancestors of humans, australopithecus afarensis, began spreading and began to show the first subtle early signs of behavioral modernity), the red fox spread throughout nearly all of the area of every country in Eurasia, crossed the Bering Strait twice long before humans did it even once and spread to almost all of North America, made it to every major island of Japan, and even went to many islands even deeper in the ocean, such as Cyprus and Mallorca in the middle of the Mediterranean and even the incredibly inhospitable Baffin Island in Canadian Nunavut, Nova Scotia, as well as almost all of North Africa. They are one of the few large animals to thrive in the Arabian desert. These are extremely adaptable, curious, intelligent and tough social animals. It is only quite recently in human history that humans caught up with the foxes, only in the last 20,000 years or so. It's a little embarrassing, but even at the time when humans created the incredible cave art at Altamira, 36,000 years ago, the red fox was a much better explorer than we were. Look at us now.
    I wonder who the greatest explorer will be in another 36,000 years. Will it be humans? A true AI super-intelligence? Genetically modified bonobos that escaped a lab and took over civilization after humans got mostly wiped out by a plague? Genetically modified human-red fox hybrids that got placed in mech-suits with opposable thumbs by over-ambitous human scientists, bringing to life the demented dreams of a lonely and rich madman from the 22nd century Furry cosplay subculture, unintentionally leading to a second sentient species emerging to join humans first as a wrongfully enslaved lab species, later as full participants in the capitalist economy, and eventually founding nations of their own on Mars, competing with human space colonization efforts? Who knows. Nature is amazing.

    When is space going to turn a profit for things other than propaganda and tourism?
    Can we get minerals or anything else we actually need from space?
    Energy from space in particular would be nice. Especially the energy necessary to fuel rockets to get into space to get the fuel.
    This needs to be our number one priority when it comes to space exploration because otherwise, any resources we spend on space exploration are ultimately a drain on our economy. Star Trek is still fiction. We need a real world reason to go to space that isn't based on fiction or "ooh, pretty"
    Last time the U.S. went to the Moon, the goal was to flex that we were stronger than the Communists. Nobody cares about that anymore, which is why there's been no reason for us to go back to the Moon. There still isn't. It's a bunch of dust and rocks up there which aren't substantially different from the dust and rocks we've already got.

      I don't have a source, so it could be BS, but read somewhere the space funding is one of the most profitable investments the US government has had. How much of our infrastructure is dependent on satellites? But you're right on the moon, we haven't gone back because it's not profitable (yet). I do think it's worth an investment though. The tech needed to make living in harsh extraterrestrial environments possible is likely tech that can be utilized in other ways to make life better in general on Earth.
