Then 🇺🇸 will file accusations that China cannot guarantee the human rights of astronauts on Mars, and start to set up a "Smear China Media Association" on Mars, and ask Congress to pass a new smear China budget
I wouldn't worry about China or anyone else. There are far too many enormous obstacles to overcome before Mars colonization ever becomes a reality, not to mention the multi-trillion dollar investment it would require..
Are you serious? What kind of mentality is that? Getting to Mars and developing space capabilities should be an absolute priority. Forget National Prestige and pride. Think about all the by-product technological breakthroughs that come with a space race? We need to have a competitive spirit and stay ahead. We can’t let them have even a chance!! It’s embarrassing we can’t launch our own fucking astronauts!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, these fears are currently unfounded! If we're gonna make a play for Mars, say within this century, it would have to be a Global effort! Beyond that however, who knows?

Well boys I’m 78 & I am going to try my hardest/best to stay healthy/alive to at least see “man” arrive on Mars. Dame I was born to early. Guys consider yourselves lucky, I have been a science, science fiction fan since I was a kid! Consider yourself fortunate 😪
too bad the US government banned NASA from working with China since 2 decades ago, otherwise CSS would've been a sizable wing of the ISS. how cool would that have be?
skyladders are impossible without speeding every single vertical portion of the structure at its specific orbital velocity, and also it doesn't just spawn, they have to be built first, cos an half done elevator would just simply destroy itself, both if you're building it by the ground or by the top. this without effectively considering atmospheric drag. a thing at idk 20km of altidude, where's the thickest part of the atmosphere, need to reach about like over 15 or 10 or 15000 km/h of speed to keep an "orbit" instead of a suborbital trajectory and just fall, and if it can manage to do that it will reach air pressure on a side that can warm it to over 2000^ celsius, contantly. they're just impossible, we have to accept that

Wouldn't be surprised if China had already started colonising Mars, building high speed rail between various cities, aquaducts sending water from the poles to the equator, as well as multi storey buildings under the Martian soil, they just didn't get around to announcing anything yet.
I have to say it's a little incredulous to expect a Time-line when Starship is still being developed. The Good thing about Spacex is they are doing everything right in the open and you can literally watch them everyday as they design technology never attempted before, even building their own rocket engines. To me there is no need for a schedule, just watch it happen right in front of all our eyes.
I suppose the Chinese figured out how to produce unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O2) and more on Mars, for the return vehicles we have not yet heard about. Right? Nah, the Chinese will colonise Mars when others have demonstrated how, doing most of the R&D and legwork.
@@hermanrobak1285 In the end China can do whatever they want to do if they are capable of it. What is off-puting is the amount of secrecy and Bragging. Almost all the technology China is using came out of Russia and US. Also off-puting is the lack of Non-CG video. Both the Soviets missions and the US (Apollo) missions were broadcast to the world to see. Even Elon's Starship is on video on the internet continuosly. The question for China is this:- Is China's space program going to be more open so that the world can benefit from their contributions, or are they just interested in looking good, so they want to hide what they are doing, only to make so splashy video if they succeed. Bear in mind that all the technology they are using came out of Germany, Russia, and United States.
@@pobembe1958 I'm not holding my breath in anticipation for *anything* from China. I may be excited by some Chinese space adventures, but I doubt an early Chinese Mars colony will be one of them. A sprawling Chinatown budding off Elonville a decade or two after NASA or SpaceX have settled on Mars would not surprise me, though.
There's a big difference between a long-term continuously inhabited research and exploration base and a "colony". We've had people continuously on Antarctica for decades, and it's not a "colony" to which people will retire and raise children. China has talked about kilometer scale space structures that allow long-term habitation: obviously they mean O'Neill habitats. If China has infrastructure in space to start a Stanford Torus at Mars or in Earth-Moon space, then we'd better brush up on learning to speak Chinese. It's obvious that any nation that has large-scale space efforts going on own the Earth and all Human endeavors, if no one else has bothered to stop watching TV long enough to keep up. There will not be a "colony" on Mars or the Moon unless and until somebody proves that we can live long-term and stay healthy in low G.
Congratulations, China has successfully bullshitted you. China is capable of some prestige projects in space, but it is still decades behind. In most cases, what China does is more bling than substance, and in space exploration it's no different. And they are paying through the nose to even achieve that much.
Yeah this is what I always think of with this whole idea. Like how about we try to make it there first & to me at least, it would make sense to test everything you’ll do on Mars on the Moon first. Ofc the conditions will vary but the moon is a closer place to have a test run & closer in case something goes wrong.
Due to the fragility of the human body, it is impossible to inhabit interstellar space with the development of science and technology in a few centuries. Eventually, it may be necessary to mechanize and electronize the body. Eventually, humans will evolve into robots
If such 'tech comes along, maybe, but that's not for human habitation. The NASA Ames/Stanford space settlement studies in the '70s established that there are no new inventions needed to mine asteroids and moons and to build for virtually Earth-like conditions anywhere in space where there are or to which we bring materials. Costs and timescales are not beyond many other large infrastructure or industrial developments down here. It's been only political indifference and contrary action, that has kept us from starting.
@@bob38161 these two d bags peddle nothing but baseless claims. They just regurgitate what NASA says. They receive the info and get their graphic designer to produce some cgi. Then all you fanboys cream your shorts over how amazing the production is and pay no attention to what these false prophets are trying to sell for views and subs. I don't know who's more pathetic, the cronies running the channels or the subs ooohing and ahhhing over "images".....
IMO always a good idea to remember that the difficult engineering problems of an Earth-based space elevator dwindle quite quickly when ur only fighting Lunar or Mars gravity.
The British Empire colonized almost every land on the earth, and there are still British people on the three British Islands. Our goal in China is to colonize almost every planet in the solar system, not just Mars. We will not compete with others about who is the first to reach a certain planet. Whether it is the first to reach a certain planet is meaningless, and it does not necessarily mean that you will eventually own this planet. Our colonization plan spans hundreds of years.
The biggest problem with colonizing Mars is the fact that the planet has no magnetic field to speak of. Until that problem is solved living on the surface of Mars will be lethal.
Also, WAAAY too much faith in Elon Musk. I know we tech guys like him, but he's severely under delivered on many projects lately. Everything from self driving cars (supposedly fully automatic by 2020), to his solar houses, to the Vegas Loop disaster, to crypto... SpaceX itself also works very closely with NASA & are being financed by many NASA contracts, so let's not act like he himself is just carrying the weight of the space race on his shoulders. Many in SpaceX have distanced themselves from him & his promises, as the company basically operates independently of him in many regards anyway. I don't dislike Elon, I've just learned to temper expectations on anything he hypes up, promises or promotes.
Elon time is his best case predictions. But new tech is not predictable and nor is supply chains during and post covid. The thing Elon Musk primary have done is to create reliable, reusable rockets. The rest is not that special IMO. SpaceX is ten years ahead the rest, and Starlink will be the main supplier of LEO global internet. Saving the climate is extremely important, but electric cars are relatively easy to make, even for the old ICE brands.
The reason we have faith in elon is because he is a man of the people and China kill its own people who speak out so I think they should never gotten into space
Commentors on the fanboy channels believe he is using his own money and is the one doing the science. They think we would have already been on the moon if the faa hadn't held him back.
Let’s do this!! Let’s actually build a ship to carry an international crew to mars on a starship and when it comes to stepping onto the surface let’s all step onto mars arms linked arms at the same time to start a United space future
@John Hanley what they should do before landing on mars is write the mars version of the constitution!! Things that start things off in the right direction!! And definitely no politicians only in it to gain fortune and the power!! Only those willing to do right lol
@@nerdwatch1017 who will write that? The USA the so called Land of Laws when in their favor. I would not trust the USA no matter what laws are written. All you have to do is look at past USA history it is a land of Liars not laws.
Could we have a literal Mars race like in “For All Mankind”? China, Russia, NASA/SpaceX, ESA all happen to launch on the same Mars transfer window? And a “competition” for who lands first? Maybe some friendly interaction over radio to ease political tension (yes, if the spacecraft are sufficiently close, which they will be if they were to use the same Mars transfer window, radio communication would work between them). And as per the law of the sea, if one ship meets catastrophic failure the nearest ship or the one with the most fuel will save the crew.
@@fork9001 Yup, and I would not mind if the Chinese got there first, we'll need some decent take-out food and good laundry services after several months cooped up in our spacecraft!! Kung poa chicken, yum yum. And not too much starch in the jump-suit collars please!! LOL ;D ;D ;D
Ask a Chinese youth today what they would like to be when they grow up, many say Taikonaut/Astronaut. Ask the same question to an American youth, many say RUclipsr.
Learning how to use materials found in other planets is critical for a sustainable space travel, immigration or colonization. Full scale recycling of all materials will also help.
That sounds adventurous and romantic. I find it especially fascinating to watch how such technologies are already slowly developing, often furthered through smaller-scale space undertakings.
Realistically speaking, a Mars colony would cost so much money, like in the trillions of dollars, that no individual, no individual company, or even individual country could afford it. The only way a Mars colony is going to be achieved is essentially by a global effort. And, it's going to take decades or even centuries to accomplish that task.
China is the only nation capible of having such a big economy. USA has like wat 600minllion? China has 5billion.... Their economy could dwarf the rest of the worlds nations combined if they figured it out. It's kinda scary when you think about it. Chinese is the most spoken language. If their economy inproved by 5% every year they would double the USA by 2030
Unless Mars provides some sort of economic, strategic or cultural advantage to Earth, colonizing Mars doesn't mean a damn thing. It will still come down to who is more powerful here on Earth whether or not a nation controls Mars.
It never ended, we just spent a lot of time at the "water distribution table" for the participants, as far as manned deep space missions are concerned, but we will be off again soon! ;D
Thank you for pointing out Elon's inability to meet a timeline. For private companies to reach mars or the moon will require significant investment by their government's. What governments achieved in a very short time during the space race is testament to that. China's just skipping the middle man.
LMAO China didn’t achieve anything. They just now accomplished what the US and Russia did 60 years ago. Yuri Gagarin first orbited the earth in April 1961. Yang lei Wei the first Chinese astronaut in space was sent up in October, 2008. On top of that China simply used the technology and methods that the Americans, soviets, and Germans developed, tested, and proved. It’d be like having 2 kids taking an exam, racing to see who finishes first, then a third kid shows up a week later after the teacher has already graded and handed back the exams. Then that third kid declared he was going to race too, and said he was a better test-taker after he copied the other two’s answers. China is wholly incapable of developing anything themselves. They just steal all of their designs from people who actually have the talent and skill to develop them. Just look at the Chinese military. All of their jets, tanks, planes, and boats are rip offs of American, European, and Russian designs. China will never reach mars first, because all they can do is copy what everyone else is doing.
@@paintedpony2935 LOL too funny that not how criticism works. By that logic only leader of countries can criticize Hitler as only a few people know what running a country is like. Elon has spent as much or more money in 20 years than the space agency and had fewer results considering 70 years ago none of this technology existed. I am very glad that after 50 years there is some excitement again as government's should have never stopped regardless of public option.
Elon sets incredible timelines to make people move their ass, to get people excited, to make things happen, instead of the way governments do it and don't meet timelines due to new politicians special interest even that timeline comes to be. The only reason we reached the moon landing timeline was to beat Russia due to cold war purposes.
A space elevator (as we usually call it in the west) goes to beyond geostationary orbit (not LEO) , otherwise the counterweight is just a weight. And then there would be a station in geostationary orbit.
@@hans-joachimbierwirth4727 Space elevators do not exist but if they were to exist, they would, in fact, reach geostationary orbit altitude so that gravity and tension can balance out.
One of the things that Elon Musk has in his favor is the fact that if China looks like they are getting close to being able to establish a colony on the red planet, the United States government would hopefully concentrate their efforts to assist Elon's efforts to make sure that we are able to establish a colony first on Mars
Doing, "what" stuff? Contaminating Mars with our germs? Robots can be sterilized, humans cannot be. We have no business sending people to Mars until we are 100% sure that there is NO indigenous life there. It may take centuries to be so sure, but, so be it! (Besides, no one's going to want to live on Mars. It's an awful, hostile, deadly place.)
Honestly, I don’t really care of who does it as long as someone does it. I’m so excited for the Mars colonization, Moon base and Venus cloud cities, I truly hope I’ll live long enough to see all of this happening
As long as it doesn't involve China a country who kill its people because of debt and no freedom for their people a country like that does not deserve to be in space
The Venusian cloud cities are furthest away one would assume. I can imagine in 100 years from now cities on all three and most of the solar system visited by manned expeditions with colonies established on worlds like Titan. It's hard to imagine cities on the moon though since people won't want to live there permanently with the low gravity being too detrimental to health. Mars, not sure about but think it will be possible.
@@distantthunder12ck55 Oh yeah, I feel like the Moon will stay as a research base/space port, I don’t see it becoming an actual city either but I still think it’s pretty cool and would love to see it. As for the cloud cities, it’s been a while since I’ve checked the havoc mission’s plan so I have no clue on the timing, I’ll just believe you as you seem way more informed than I am. It’s interesting how you mention Titan, tho. Do you think that we’ll be able to colonize it in 100 years?
What no one is talking about: because the same side of the Moon always faces Earth, there are ideal locations to colonize on the Moon. Earth passes through the path of the Moon orbit. So, there is a region of the Moon where minimal energy is need to send stuff to Earth periodically.
@@MoonlightMassacre Not true. The moon is a low gravity manufacturing dream. Raw materials laying around everywhere and very little gravity well to get them out of. It's no place to live, but it's a great place to mine and manufacture.
Not useful? Not really. It's just that with the current tech we have now, it is not economically viable to do much other than experiments and exploration which will lose money rather than make it. We just need to find a way to make money and then space colonies will take off and be the norm. But without pioneers like China or USA taking the risk and spending the money and advancing the tech, it will never happen and we will always be a single planet species that will be wiped out when a massive asteroid hits us or we have a nuclear war on earth.
Humans across the world dream of space - if politicians want to paint pictures? let them - it'll only serve to accelerate progress. I'm really excited for humans to be going back to the moon - no matter what part of the planet they launched from.
Unlike the pictures and mock-ups, I think you have to bury the crewed parts of a Mars base to avoid frying the crew with radiation from space. Also, every time you do an EVA there will be radiation exposure. IMHO - best case, in the 2030’s we’ll have small, buried scientific bases with a few dozen people.
like that movie made in 1955 were they went to moon or mars and they walked out side but had to stay in the shade of giant rocks one guy got out of the shade and was fried, but Americans know all the stuff for 70 years and they even thought we be on moon or mars by 2000, but you know humans to busy being dorks .
@@onlythewise1 Yup, the dorks in U.S. Congress killed space exploration starting in mid-1970's under Jimmy Carter, and they continue to this day, with smaller appropriations for space and bigger taxation plans for the people. Too bad, they (NASA) had it all worked out on paper decades ago, including big space stations, deep space missions to the planets, Mars and moon abases by now. They had experience and momentum and the industrial/manufacturing aerospace knowhow, all over the country, at the time shortly after Apollo moon landings. All they needed was Congress to continue to look Up to space, instead of out at the bleak American slums always needing more cash, for social programs, thrown down a rat hole. But at least we got Voyagers, Mars Rovers, and JWST off the ground!! :D LOL LOL
@@onlythewise1 Nope. More like today, we had No "homeless problem" in the 70-90's, today it's everywhere, not to mention an open border, for illegals to add to the problem of homelessness now.
Imagine yourself in the ship when the AI's voice says :"attention please, attention please, leak in the nuclear reactor. I repeat, leak in the nuclear reactor"... 😭
I don't have to, I served on nuclear powered submarines, we are trained for such scenarios. I was a sonar tech but I knew the procedure to shut down the reactor (everyone has to learn it, in fact it's written down in "maneuvering", the room where the reactor is controlled) and how to switch over to the battery or the diesel (battery only at first until we get to periscope depth to run the diesel).
If that happens, it's because of China has a purpose of accomplishing the goals, unlike NASA and our government is using it as a jobs development program.
They are both utterly dreaming. There is no possible way within the next 50 years we’re putting a man on Mars. This is nuclear fusion levels of hype (that’s been 20 years away for the last 60 years). It is SO wild and SO far-fetched I’m amazed that anyone is taking this seriously.
All it takes is 1 new form of propulsion to make all this a reality. Once we can make counter gravity propulsion drives, mass of the ship will become meaningless and we'll be able to ship pre fabricated bases with all the required radiation shielding in 1 go.
Tesla is already in China and has a rather good working relationship with the Chinese... So my take on this is that SpaceX and China will have at least some small level of cooperation between them. What that entails and by extension how much cooperation there will be is of course an unknown.
Bud, you do realize that in order for SpaceX to operate in the USA they have strict laws about information sharing right? Any sort of technology that can be used to ballistic missiles has high clearance vetting in place for All employees and I highly doubt the government of the USA is going to allow SpaceX to share technology with a future military enemy. If Elon did this, it's probable he would end up executed for treason considering that's how sensitive the technology is and once again, I'm 100% the USA government isn't going to allow this 🤣
Spacex is completely forbidden with sharing technology with any country outside the US. They are not allow to hire non Americans. Tesla and space x are two totally different companies. Space will never work with China on anything space related. It is illegal under us law.
It all sounds good and very good ideas in regards to colonizing Mars but if they want to speed things up I would think get the rocket in shape and get a colony of robots that are able to prepare the ground as of now for when the first human ship comes in things are ready to receive them and we could continue with the growth
Exactly! If they spent the same money as they do for rockets etc. on robotics for space developement instead, progress would be unprecedentedly quicker and cheaper (and better)...I reckon. They do seem to be getting the idea though. There are some videos on a similar idea and the TESLA bot project may lean towards this. But why spend so much money doing it the hard way when they could do it better with robots? 😕 Boston Dynamics is maybe demonstrating this possibility right now! Humans are unprecedentedly less cost effective in space travel and building space projects (cos of required life sustainability and stuff). Space X may do the rocket bit with humans but I reckon send the TESLA bot (or both humans and the bots) and gradually develop a robotic construction system. But I reckon do it on earth first and for a decade at least, before actually doing it in space. The robots should be good enough to do it by themselves by then. They should NOT be in any hurry or slackness in space stuff. Just do it in our own time, but do it. Spend the money on robots first then on the rockets when the robots are ready. It would be unprecedentedly hard but not as hard as rushing out there with humans cos of POLITICS (in a hurry). That is not science that is POLITICS.
(hopefully) An interest will succeed in transplanting humans to Mars. Once this happens...it is likely others will follow suit and there will be multiple interests operating on Mars. These could become countries eventually. Or become classic colonies governed from Earth. Or a mix of these. Time will tell.
Establishing a colony without a direct supply line is already a nightmare task on earth. I dont think we will see anything beyond science crews in mars in our lifetime.
Could we also get an episode about Indias ambitions in space? The Ganganyaan and Chandrayaan programs seems to be important to compare with milestones mentioned in the episode about Tiangong/ISS and IRLO/Artemis
@@nukejapandie5913 While yes, India isn't that level of US or China. Their program is still impressive and achieves a lot compare to the resource and technology that they have for their own space ambition. Really interesting to explore anyway.
India space ambitions? There's a big difference between ambitions and accomplishments, difference between wishful thinking/dreams and reality. India space mission and accomplishment is comparable to Brazil or UAE. Not China, Russia, USA, or even Esa. India still does not even have a manned program.
Chinese never took anywhere as their colony on earth, they will not do it on Mars. However, who took the third world as their colonies from 500 years ago unitl now? Who!
. . . But after that it would be already too late. Moon and Mars are the most convenient to settle. Now, in an optimistic note, nobody can colonize the whole of the Mars instantly. Once the Chinese will settle in one or two most convenient locations, there will still be many places open for grabs.
Along with USA scrapping the wolf amendment which bans Nasa cooperation with china.. They will want to live in China's moon and Mars base(and space station after ISS is decommissioned) and copy China's tech and ideas.
As a Chinese youth today what they would like to be when they grow up, many say Taikonaut/Astronaut. Ask the same question to an American youth, many say RUclipsr.
The thing I worry about with the idea of people living in bubbles on Mars - it sounds like an ideal situation for diseases to spread and amplify. A great example of something we'd need to learn a lot more about is Legionnaire's disease, we seem to notice that it's related to water treatment systems and cooling towers (and as far as I'm aware its outbreaks tend to be either on cruise ships, man-made islands, or places where water is getting processed). We'd really need to get on top of that not to have those sealed colonies turn into hellish petri dishes where everyone's dying from respiratory illness and similar things.
@@stormhawk31 it's definitely a 'fuck around and find yourself outside an airlock' situation, particularly with survival being as tenuous as it would be. There clearly wouldn't be much modern tolerance for crime or the sorts of people who'd threaten to let the air out of the complex if they couldn't socially / psychologically dominate everyone.
@@carbon1479 Yes, some time in the future, on Mars: "Where's Joe, have you seen him?" "Yup, two big security guys were escorting him to the air lock on D-Deck." "But, wait a minute, there's his environmental suit, he'll need that!" "Nope, he won't need that, .....or anything else, now!!" ;D LOL
Nobody will take them seriously as they know China is only capable of riding coattails. They don’t design any of their own tech, and are just standing on the accomplishments of the Americans, Soviets, and Germans from sixty years ago.
After orbit and landing I bet it's only one or two more then off to Mars. So two years seems more then enough. However. I do expect that first one to be more of a test of the landing systems and not have much of a chance of lifting off again.
He actually knows a lot about the subject, and he works extremely long hours. Try to watch Everyday Astronaut raptor video and the interview with Musk. If you think a leader should do all the work, and know every detail, then you are not living in the real world.
Why would you know the name of some random schmo who puts together rockets? He's the guy with the money and ideas that make it happen. The guy put together the rockets doesn't know how to make them.
Does this mean it's better to live on a world that the average temperature is like minus 81 degrees Fahrenheit, has no breathable atmosphere and rains radiation rather then living in China? It will make for an interesting social experiment living in that kind of isolation, hope they can survive the trip.
The trouble is that they were so slack about it for so long and now it's too late and they are now in a hurry. Neither being slack or being in a hurry is how you really should do science. Especially space stuff.
I think there will be much less demand to live on Mars than Elon thinks. Yeah, maybe for free. But how many peoole who have the money to go are going to actually want to go live on Mars when it's in the beta stages.
First explorers will be paid to go, very very well; it's their profession. Others, with money, will go for the uniqueness of dying there, much later. Much later, folks will go for riches to be made there. Most ordinary folks will stay here, and read about it in the media, both the triumphs and the disasters, like in all of Earth's history to this point.
@@remkoburger6595 Because they are not problems except in the mindset of some people. Mass can solve the radiation problem. The way it does on Earth. It is the atmosphere much more than the magnetosphere that protects us from radiation. The magnetosphere helped maintain the atmosphere. But regolith or water can protect from radiation just as well.
the end of the video made me chuckle...so I made some adjustments: "...so who do you think will actually pull it off?" "we've got utilitarian brute force and dedication of China..." "versus *utilitarian brute force and dedication of Elon musk's Space X*" I dunno, but it would be nice if they both worked.😆
The difference is that Space X actually develops and creates its own technology, whereas China just steals it from other countries and then slightly modified it. IP theft is crazy in China.
Yup, to the West everything China does is brute force but kept silent that they have colonized the world by brute force themselves. I am surprised he did not say "Communist China". Can we say Democrat US since they are governed by the democrat party under Biden? Can we also refer to Trump era as the Republican US? Americans loves their adjectives and pronouns.
The first thing China will do on Mars is building a 'Vocational Training and Reeducational Camps for the Martian. So the Martians will not make confuse the farmers by making 'Crop circle' on earth anymore, Ok. that's just my thought. 🙄🤫🤭

Good work China. You are known as a peacefull nation. We are sure if you landed at Mars.... Mars will be alive with infrastructures for human civilization.
When it happens (mars colonization) it will be China because one rich guy will not be able to realistically compete with a nation dedicated to a macro project. I'm rooting for the underdog ...Elon
That's a good thing, Americans don't need to carry food, they can order authentic Chinese takeout on Mars (provided the US doesn't bring the "human rights" guise to Mars)
As much as this video is well discussed, I think it is still important for anyone from the west to go see China in person about the human rights issue first. Especially in regions which the west kept on accusing China of with human rights issues. I had moved to live and work in China for a year. I haven't travel around China enough to see every corner, but I would like to laugh at the west when they accuse China on human rights issues when I haven't seen any so far, especially about Muslims. Muslims and people from Xinjiang are traveling and working around China, some are quiet wealthy too. Xinjiang developing itself faster and faster, and it got its own subway system now, and a high speed rail line connecting to the rest of China. Lots of people in Xinjiang have their own businesses, has a job. So I really urge people to go see things for themselves first before reusing the western propaganda to judge or comment about China on whatever matters.
"As much as this video is well discussed, I think it is still important for anyone from the west to go see China in person about the human rights issue first. Especially in regions which the west kept on accusing China of with human rights issues." I would assume the Xinjiang internment camps are very isolated and far out of view from the public which is why you probably wouldn't see them even while living there. "Muslims and people from Xinjiang are traveling and working around China, some are quiet wealthy too." Ok and I am sure the internment camps don't house the entire Muslim population of Xinjiang. There is obviously going to be a minority population in the internment camps. I think its a bit disingenuous to propose that since you see Muslims then the interment camps are just an overblown issue. it isn't mutually exclusive you could have Muslim internment camps and rich Muslims going about their lives in the city. "So I really urge people to go see things for themselves first before reusing the western propaganda to judge or comment about China on whatever matters." sounds like Chinese propaganda to me.

Do you think that we would be able to get to mars quicker with nuclear ships and would the two year window matter as much? Really interesting video by the way 👍
The two-year cycle will certainly still matter quite much, for a while. You'd essentially have to travel around the Sun, in between. Just like any other planet, Mars regularly vanishes behind our star.
Both scenarios indicate human achievement, intelligence and ingenuity. You will be a prouder human "and if" it happens, it would define a landmark innovative human social development perspective. Great one!!

This video, which is just 4 months old, didn't age well. Elon Musk did not found and build PayPal, he was just one of the investors. He didn't found Tesla etc either. He just had money to take over, and he was lucky to have very good scientists and engineers who started up the companies without him, and continue to run them with Elon around. He just took the credit. Now, he couldn't even run Twitter properly since he fired 70% of the employees, including the top brains. China, after 3 years, doesn't even know how to deal with Covid-19. China's economy is not "averaging 10% yearly growth" anymore. It's going to be around 3% this year. Actually it's revealed that the average 10% growth was also a myth. China couldn't function technologically without the semiconductor technologies of other countries. So, looks like this video can now be classified as myth.
You had me thinking this was a serious plan until you said they were going to use carbon nanotubes. People have been trying to make industrially viable carbon nanotubes for 30 years and failed, and if China had a means to produce them in giant cables they would've revolutionized materials science in every industry that currently uses nylon or kevlar as industrial textiles.
Sky Ladder won't work unless it was a static 300 km tower. Even then, you need to still apply 8 km/s with a rocket to anything that would leave this tower or it would fall strait to the ground.
If China were to win, it would give new meaning to Mars' nickname, "Red Planet".

skyladders are impossible without speeding every single vertical portion of the structure at its specific orbital velocity, and also it doesn't just spawn, they have to be built first, cos an half done elevator would just simply destroy itself, both if you're building it by the ground or by the top. this without effectively considering atmospheric drag. a thing at idk 20km of altidude, where's the thickest part of the atmosphere, need to reach about like over 15 or 10 or 15000 km/h of speed to keep an "orbit" instead of a suborbital trajectory and just fall, and if it can manage to do that it will reach air pressure on a side that can warm it to over 2000^ celsius, contantly. they're just impossible, we have to accept that

Wouldn't be surprised if China had already started colonising Mars, building high speed rail between various cities, aquaducts sending water from the poles to the equator, as well as multi storey buildings under the Martian soil, they just didn't get around to announcing anything yet.
I have to say it's a little incredulous to expect a Time-line when Starship is still being developed.
The Good thing about Spacex is they are doing everything right in the open and you can literally watch them everyday as they design technology never attempted before, even building their own rocket engines.
To me there is no need for a schedule, just watch it happen right in front of all our eyes.
I suppose the Chinese figured out how to produce unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDMH), dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O2) and more on Mars, for the return vehicles we have not yet heard about. Right?

Both the Soviets missions and the US (Apollo) missions were broadcast to the world to see. Even Elon's Starship is on video on the internet continuosly.
The question for China is this:- Is China's space program going to be more open so that the world can benefit from their contributions, or are they just interested in looking good, so they want to hide what they are doing, only to make so splashy video if they succeed.

There's a big difference between a long-term continuously inhabited research and exploration base and a "colony".
We've had people continuously on Antarctica for decades, and it's not a "colony" to which people will retire and raise children.
China has talked about kilometer scale space structures that allow long-term habitation: obviously they mean O'Neill habitats.
If China has infrastructure in space to start a Stanford Torus at Mars or in Earth-Moon space, then we'd better brush up on learning to speak Chinese.
It's obvious that any nation that has large-scale space efforts going on own the Earth and all Human endeavors, if no one else has bothered to stop watching TV long enough to keep up.
There will not be a "colony" on Mars or the Moon unless and until somebody proves that we can live long-term and stay healthy in low G.
Congratulations, China has successfully bullshitted you. China is capable of some prestige projects in space, but it is still decades behind. In most cases, what China does is more bling than substance, and in space exploration it's no different. And they are paying through the nose to even achieve that much.
Yeah this is what I always think of with this whole idea. Like how about we try to make it there first & to me at least, it would make sense to test everything you’ll do on Mars on the Moon first. Ofc the conditions will vary but the moon is a closer place to have a test run & closer in case something goes wrong.
I believe it will be humanoid robots doing the space traveling ain't no way at 3.721m/s^2 a human will function the same for extended periods of time
Due to the fragility of the human body, it is impossible to inhabit interstellar space with the development of science and technology in a few centuries. Eventually, it may be necessary to mechanize and electronize the body. Eventually, humans will evolve into robots
If such 'tech comes along, maybe, but that's not for human habitation.
The NASA Ames/Stanford space settlement studies in the '70s established that there are no new inventions needed to mine asteroids and moons and to build for virtually Earth-like conditions anywhere in space where there are or to which we bring materials.
Costs and timescales are not beyond many other large infrastructure or industrial developments down here. It's been only political indifference and contrary action, that has kept us from starting.

The British Empire colonized almost every land on the earth, and there are still British people on the three British Islands. Our goal in China is to colonize almost every planet in the solar system, not just Mars. We will not compete with others about who is the first to reach a certain planet. Whether it is the first to reach a certain planet is meaningless, and it does not necessarily mean that you will eventually own this planet. Our colonization plan spans hundreds of years.
The biggest problem with colonizing Mars is the fact that the planet has no magnetic field to speak of. Until that problem is solved living on the surface of Mars will be lethal.
Well done, excellent post!
Also, WAAAY too much faith in Elon Musk.
I know we tech guys like him, but he's severely under delivered on many projects lately. Everything from self driving cars (supposedly fully automatic by 2020), to his solar houses, to the Vegas Loop disaster, to crypto...
SpaceX itself also works very closely with NASA & are being financed by many NASA contracts, so let's not act like he himself is just carrying the weight of the space race on his shoulders.
Many in SpaceX have distanced themselves from him & his promises, as the company basically operates independently of him in many regards anyway.
I don't dislike Elon, I've just learned to temper expectations on anything he hypes up, promises or promotes.
Elon time is his best case predictions. But new tech is not predictable and nor is supply chains during and post covid.
The thing Elon Musk primary have done is to create reliable, reusable rockets.
The rest is not that special IMO.
SpaceX is ten years ahead the rest, and Starlink will be the main supplier of LEO global internet.
Saving the climate is extremely important, but electric cars are relatively easy to make, even for the old ICE brands.
The reason we have faith in elon is because he is a man of the people and China kill its own people who speak out so I think they should never gotten into space

LMAO China didn’t achieve anything. They just now accomplished what the US and Russia did 60 years ago. Yuri Gagarin first orbited the earth in April 1961. Yang lei Wei the first Chinese astronaut in space was sent up in October, 2008.
On top of that China simply used the technology and methods that the Americans, soviets, and Germans developed, tested, and proved.
It’d be like having 2 kids taking an exam, racing to see who finishes first, then a third kid shows up a week later after the teacher has already graded and handed back the exams. Then that third kid declared he was going to race too, and said he was a better test-taker after he copied the other two’s answers. China is wholly incapable of developing anything themselves. They just steal all of their designs from people who actually have the talent and skill to develop them. Just look at the Chinese military. All of their jets, tanks, planes, and boats are rip offs of American, European, and Russian designs. China will never reach mars first, because all they can do is copy what everyone else is doing.

All it takes is 1 new form of propulsion to make all this a reality. Once we can make counter gravity propulsion drives, mass of the ship will become meaningless and we'll be able to ship pre fabricated bases with all the required radiation shielding in 1 go.
Tesla is already in China and has a rather good working relationship with the Chinese...
So my take on this is that SpaceX and China will have at least some small level of cooperation between them.
What that entails and by extension how much cooperation there will be is of course an unknown.
Bud, you do realize that in order for SpaceX to operate in the USA they have strict laws about information sharing right? Any sort of technology that can be used to ballistic missiles has high clearance vetting in place for All employees and I highly doubt the government of the USA is going to allow SpaceX to share technology with a future military enemy. If Elon did this, it's probable he would end up executed for treason considering that's how sensitive the technology is and once again, I'm 100% the USA government isn't going to allow this 🤣
Spacex is completely forbidden with sharing technology with any country outside the US. They are not allow to hire non Americans. Tesla and space x are two totally different companies. Space will never work with China on anything space related. It is illegal under us law.
Yes I agreed
Great name, btw!
China will never colonize Mars.
Nobody will.
Mars exploration? Ok.
Mars colonization? No way.
It all sounds good and very good ideas in regards to colonizing Mars but if they want to speed things up I would think get the rocket in shape and get a colony of robots that are able to prepare the ground as of now for when the first human ship comes in things are ready to receive them and we could continue with the growth
Exactly! If they spent the same money as they do for rockets etc. on robotics for space developement instead, progress would be unprecedentedly quicker and cheaper (and better)...I reckon. They do seem to be getting the idea though. There are some videos on a similar idea and the TESLA bot project may lean towards this. But why spend so much money doing it the hard way when they could do it better with robots? 😕 Boston Dynamics is maybe demonstrating this possibility right now! Humans are unprecedentedly less cost effective in space travel and building space projects (cos of required life sustainability and stuff). Space X may do the rocket bit with humans but I reckon send the TESLA bot (or both humans and the bots) and gradually develop a robotic construction system. But I reckon do it on earth first and for a decade at least, before actually doing it in space. The robots should be good enough to do it by themselves by then. They should NOT be in any hurry or slackness in space stuff. Just do it in our own time, but do it. Spend the money on robots first then on the rockets when the robots are ready. It would be unprecedentedly hard but not as hard as rushing out there with humans cos of POLITICS (in a hurry). That is not science that is POLITICS.
sure
Thanks for being a good fan of mine your comments attracted me to keep supporting while I bring more entertainment your way…
That's so cool!
Good luck Elon and China, and whoever else who's planning to get out there.
Space is big enough for everybody!
Mars reality show sounds like such a fun idea lol
Race to the Planet Mars is on.
Without competition , how can humans colonized the universe? It doesn’t matter who colonized what.
Cooperation is a million time better man !
(hopefully)
An interest will succeed in transplanting humans to Mars. Once this happens...it is likely others will follow suit and there will be multiple interests operating on Mars.
These could become countries eventually.
Or become classic colonies governed from Earth. Or a mix of these. Time will tell.
Establishing a colony without a direct supply line is already a nightmare task on earth. I dont think we will see anything beyond science crews in mars in our lifetime.
Time will tell that none of this is going to happen, at least within the next 100 years or more. It's just not worth the effort, Darrin.
Could we also get an episode about Indias ambitions in space? The Ganganyaan and Chandrayaan programs seems to be important to compare with milestones mentioned in the episode about Tiangong/ISS and IRLO/Artemis
I would trust them more than China
?India can't even compare
@@nukejapandie5913 While yes, India isn't that level of US or China. Their program is still impressive and achieves a lot compare to the resource and technology that they have for their own space ambition. Really interesting to explore anyway.
And just now china send It's largest rocket
India space ambitions? There's a big difference between ambitions and accomplishments, difference between wishful thinking/dreams and reality.
India space mission and accomplishment is comparable to Brazil or UAE. Not China, Russia, USA, or even Esa.
India still does not even have a manned program.
Chinese never took anywhere as their colony on earth, they will not do it on Mars. However, who took the third world as their colonies from 500 years ago unitl now? Who!
w-e-s-t
Depends on the time and place
2:02 scared the shit outta me. Listening to the video while working and I literally jumped, I appreciate the scare 😅
If China colonizes Mars before America, we will see the largest budget increase to NASA in history.
. . . But after that it would be already too late. Moon and Mars are the most convenient to settle.
Now, in an optimistic note, nobody can colonize the whole of the Mars instantly. Once the Chinese will settle in one or two most convenient locations, there will still be many places open for grabs.
Along with USA scrapping the wolf amendment which bans Nasa cooperation with china..
They will want to live in China's moon and Mars base(and space station after ISS is decommissioned) and copy China's tech and ideas.
It won't happen. Sigh.
As a Chinese youth today what they would like to be when they grow up, many say Taikonaut/Astronaut. Ask the same question to an American youth, many say RUclipsr.
@@FlorinSutu yes, the total land mass is about Earth size, since no oceans there, .....at least now! ;D
The thing I worry about with the idea of people living in bubbles on Mars - it sounds like an ideal situation for diseases to spread and amplify. A great example of something we'd need to learn a lot more about is Legionnaire's disease, we seem to notice that it's related to water treatment systems and cooling towers (and as far as I'm aware its outbreaks tend to be either on cruise ships, man-made islands, or places where water is getting processed). We'd really need to get on top of that not to have those sealed colonies turn into hellish petri dishes where everyone's dying from respiratory illness and similar things.
It sounds like an ideal situation for the most absolute totalitarianism ever in the history of man.
@@stormhawk31 it's definitely a 'fuck around and find yourself outside an airlock' situation, particularly with survival being as tenuous as it would be. There clearly wouldn't be much modern tolerance for crime or the sorts of people who'd threaten to let the air out of the complex if they couldn't socially / psychologically dominate everyone.
@@carbon1479 Yes, some time in the future, on Mars: "Where's Joe, have you seen him?"
"Yup, two big security guys were escorting him to the air lock on D-Deck."
"But, wait a minute, there's his environmental suit, he'll need that!"
"Nope, he won't need that, .....or anything else, now!!"
;D LOL
Mars exploration? Ok.
Mars colonization? No way.
Very cool. Good thinking.
I so hope they do, it would kick everyone else’s colonisation attempts into seriousness.
Nobody will take them seriously as they know China is only capable of riding coattails. They don’t design any of their own tech, and are just standing on the accomplishments of the Americans, Soviets, and Germans from sixty years ago.
Mars exploration? Ok.
Mars colonization? No way.
Please, Elon isn't gonna have anything land on Mars by at least 2030 best case scenario
Dude that hairline joke was hilarious, much love from the San Francisco Bay.
Imagine you get to the real Mars base and realize they lied about the huge curved screen.
After orbit and landing I bet it's only one or two more then off to Mars. So two years seems more then enough. However. I do expect that first one to be more of a test of the landing systems and not have much of a chance of lifting off again.
Mars exploration? Ok.
Mars colonization? No way.
Elon ain't the one putting the rockets together, he's just a rich person from a rich family.
He actually knows a lot about the subject, and he works extremely long hours. Try to watch Everyday Astronaut raptor video and the interview with Musk.
If you think a leader should do all the work, and know every detail, then you are not living in the real world.
Hes actually an engineer if I recall correctly
Why would you know the name of some random schmo who puts together rockets? He's the guy with the money and ideas that make it happen. The guy put together the rockets doesn't know how to make them.
@@la7dfa An executive actually knowing alot about his company, WOW 😄
@@williamblazkowicz5587 solid state physics. Not rocketry or chemistry.
Does this mean it's better to live on a world that the average temperature is like minus 81 degrees Fahrenheit, has no breathable atmosphere and rains radiation rather then living in China?
It will make for an interesting social experiment living in that kind of isolation, hope they can survive the trip.
The trouble is that they were so slack about it for so long and now it's too late and they are now in a hurry. Neither being slack or being in a hurry is how you really should do science. Especially space stuff.
I think there will be much less demand to live on Mars than Elon thinks.
Yeah, maybe for free. But how many peoole who have the money to go are going to actually want to go live on Mars when it's in the beta stages.
First explorers will be paid to go, very very well; it's their profession. Others, with money, will go for the uniqueness of dying there, much later. Much later, folks will go for riches to be made there. Most ordinary folks will stay here, and read about it in the media, both the triumphs and the disasters, like in all of Earth's history to this point.
Two extremely major problems for both entities…NO MAGNETOSPHERE AND HIGH GAMMA RAY FLOODING THE SURFACE
Why is no one talking about this?
@@remkoburger6595
Because they are not problems except in the mindset of some people. Mass can solve the radiation problem. The way it does on Earth. It is the atmosphere much more than the magnetosphere that protects us from radiation. The magnetosphere helped maintain the atmosphere. But regolith or water can protect from radiation just as well.
the end of the video made me chuckle...so I made some adjustments:
"...so who do you think will actually pull it off?"
"we've got utilitarian brute force and dedication of China..."
"versus *utilitarian brute force and dedication of Elon musk's Space X*"
I dunno, but it would be nice if they both worked.😆
The difference is that Space X actually develops and creates its own technology, whereas China just steals it from other countries and then slightly modified it.
IP theft is crazy in China.
Yup, to the West everything China does is brute force but kept silent that they have colonized the world by brute force themselves. I am surprised he did not say "Communist China". Can we say Democrat US since they are governed by the democrat party under Biden? Can we also refer to Trump era as the Republican US? Americans loves their adjectives and pronouns.
The first thing China will do on Mars is building a 'Vocational Training and Reeducational Camps for the Martian. So the Martians will not make confuse the farmers by making 'Crop circle' on earth anymore,
Ok. that's just my thought. 🙄🤫🤭
Sejak tahun ini 2023 Pemerintah Belanda secara resmi meminta maaf kepada Bangsa Indonesia (Terjajah Belanda) atas kesalahannya yang dilakukan oleh nenek moyang mereka (Penjajah Belanda) dan sekaligus memberikan ganti ruginya berupa sejumlah uang kepada Pemerintah Indonesia Pusat.
Good work China. You are known as a peacefull nation. We are sure if you landed at Mars.... Mars will be alive with infrastructures for human civilization.
When it happens (mars colonization) it will be China because one rich guy will not be able to realistically compete with a nation dedicated to a macro project. I'm rooting for the underdog ...Elon
I really like the Chinese Mars base. I'm curious about how they would get it up there
Hopefully NASA n SpaceX will first Colonizes Mars...love this story...
I think we’re forgetting 1.4 billion ppl are wondering “What if NASA beats China?” Vs just .4 billion ppl thinking like us.
First thing came to mind was, how many years on mars it will take for humanity to start the first mars war.
And then the first earth - mars war lol
Never.
That's a good thing, Americans don't need to carry food, they can order authentic Chinese takeout on Mars (provided the US doesn't bring the "human rights" guise to Mars)
As much as this video is well discussed, I think it is still important for anyone from the west to go see China in person about the human rights issue first. Especially in regions which the west kept on accusing China of with human rights issues. I had moved to live and work in China for a year. I haven't travel around China enough to see every corner, but I would like to laugh at the west when they accuse China on human rights issues when I haven't seen any so far, especially about Muslims. Muslims and people from Xinjiang are traveling and working around China, some are quiet wealthy too. Xinjiang developing itself faster and faster, and it got its own subway system now, and a high speed rail line connecting to the rest of China. Lots of people in Xinjiang have their own businesses, has a job.
So I really urge people to go see things for themselves first before reusing the western propaganda to judge or comment about China on whatever matters.
"As much as this video is well discussed, I think it is still important for anyone from the west to go see China in person about the human rights issue first. Especially in regions which the west kept on accusing China of with human rights issues."
I would assume the Xinjiang internment camps are very isolated and far out of view from the public which is why you probably wouldn't see them even while living there.
"Muslims and people from Xinjiang are traveling and working around China, some are quiet wealthy too." Ok and I am sure the internment camps don't house the entire Muslim population of Xinjiang. There is obviously going to be a minority population in the internment camps. I think its a bit disingenuous to propose that since you see Muslims then the interment camps are just an overblown issue. it isn't mutually exclusive you could have Muslim internment camps and rich Muslims going about their lives in the city.
"So I really urge people to go see things for themselves first before reusing the western propaganda to judge or comment about China on whatever matters." sounds like Chinese propaganda to me. "Oh come see Xinjiang the city you won't see any internment camps here! *cough* because we hid them away far from cities so you couldn't see them *cough* " - probably Chinese government..
@@MrObveous777 lol..what a sad piece of sh*t you are. I guess you really love the one sided fake information that your government feed you. No wonder you are trying to make fun of my comment or trying to accuse me of being the Chinese government. Are you so insecure about the information you think you were told to are all fake? Because you are right to feel insecure...that's how your corrupted government jails your freedom of exploring the world of facts other then what they show you.
Good luck living as an idiot.
We need to use Duck Dodgers of the 21st century. Just watch out for Marvin the Martian because he will vaporize you🤓
The mars wars of 2064 sure were brutal.... also china role playing is cute
Imagine if we cut all the BS, and all worked toward the same goal
Imagining that is as close as we'll ever get to it actually happening.
There is certainty a new Space Race and that's good and necessary for humanity if it's a peaceful endeavor. I agree with the host as some toes will be stepped on to achieve colonization.
Do you think that we would be able to get to mars quicker with nuclear ships and would the two year window matter as much? Really interesting video by the way 👍
hell no
The two-year cycle will certainly still matter quite much, for a while. You'd essentially have to travel around the Sun, in between. Just like any other planet, Mars regularly vanishes behind our star.
Brilliant!
Helps tremendously to understand WTF is our trajectory.
Both scenarios indicate human achievement, intelligence and ingenuity. You will be a prouder human "and if" it happens, it would define a landmark innovative human social development perspective. Great one!!
If SpaceX can cooperate with China, that will be great. Doing it alone whether it is SpaceX or China, it is a tall task. Such a high level endevour should be done and directed by UN. I want to see a nice Mars settlement before I grow way too old.
😂 no even close. Space x is just a profit scheme. Just like all of other Elon musks companies.
Besos and BLUE ORIGIN will surpass them both because Besos and BLUE ORIGIN are a "self-sustaining" entity, that will continue, without the need for outside funding! 😱😁😝🤪🤣👍👍🇺🇲
Living on the surface of mars would make me crazy. It feels like I would be so vulnerable there. I’ll visit if they make caves.
This video, which is just 4 months old, didn't age well. Elon Musk did not found and build PayPal, he was just one of the investors. He didn't found Tesla etc either. He just had money to take over, and he was lucky to have very good scientists and engineers who started up the companies without him, and continue to run them with Elon around. He just took the credit. Now, he couldn't even run Twitter properly since he fired 70% of the employees, including the top brains. China, after 3 years, doesn't even know how to deal with Covid-19. China's economy is not "averaging 10% yearly growth" anymore. It's going to be around 3% this year. Actually it's revealed that the average 10% growth was also a myth. China couldn't function technologically without the semiconductor technologies of other countries. So, looks like this video can now be classified as myth.
It's gonna be a variation on that sci fi series, "For All Mankind"... it's a huge planet, plenty of room for everyone...
The sad part is the resources that are being wasted on this issue.
You had me thinking this was a serious plan until you said they were going to use carbon nanotubes. People have been trying to make industrially viable carbon nanotubes for 30 years and failed, and if China had a means to produce them in giant cables they would've revolutionized materials science in every industry that currently uses nylon or kevlar as industrial textiles.
Sky Ladder won't work unless it was a static 300 km tower. Even then, you need to still apply 8 km/s with a rocket to anything that would leave this tower or it would fall strait to the ground.
They took years to even create their own ballpoint pen!😂😂😂😂😂
This narrator is kind of lame. Elon would never try to build a space elevator on Earth and neither would the Chinese.
