    My dad had a co-worker who was somewhat older than he, who loved to tell a story about Sputnik. While his physics teacher was in the middle of a lecture about how aerodynamics and the limitations of chemical energy made it impossible to put an artificial satellite in orbit someone came to the classroom to tell them about Sputnik 1.

      Sputnik was launched at night in Russia and Europe (around 10pm in France), and was first detected by radio-observers a couple hours later in the middle of the night in the USA, most people woke up to the news.

      @@LiberalsGettheBulletToo I'd be more curious to know which lecturers are up in the AM hours waiting for news from Europe when they have a lecture the next day. Sputnik was launched in 1957, quite a few decades before 24 hour news was a thing. Time Magazine wrote a week later how the news broke in the US. At a cocktail party for the International Year of Geophysics attended by 50 scientists from 13 nations in the Russian Embassy on 16th st in Washington, New York Times Reporter Walter Sullivan was called away from the party to take an urgent phone call from his paper breaking the news to him that evening, 2 hours after the final news broadcast for the night, where he in turn relayed the news to Lloyd Berkner, a physicist who was at the time the president of the Comité Spéciale de l’Année Géophysique Internationale, who then announced the news to the guests, congratulating his Soviet peers on their achievement. This tells us the NYT heard the news that night, which means it would have made the press the following morning. Morning TV news wasn't really a thing so your assertion "most people in the US woke up to the news" makes no sense whatsoever. The first public reports came out on radio the morning after, it's not at all inconceivable that people would interrupt a physics lecture to break such important scientific news. Indeed, most Americans would have found out either reading a morning paper or that evening on TV. And Americans were never exactly famous for their love of reading as I'm sure you would know. Oh and nice user name, really sets the tone for anyone making an estimation of your intellectual capacity. Hope you made it through all the big words and facts, Cleetus. I know how you alt right wingnuts hate both of those things.

      Before Sputnik my physics teacher in grade 9 told our class that in order to go into space and arrive at the desired target they would have to aim with precision because you can't steer in space. I immediately told him he was wrong because of a simple and basic physics law. EVERY ACTION HAS AND EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION. Later that year our geometry teacher told us that he and all the other students had worked all day on a problem that nobody was able to solve. Our class was the last one of the day. I answered it correctly in less than a minute. I was absent more days than present and still passed all my exams. I was too bored to keep going and quit school with a high school diploma. Now as I look back I wish I had gone one to become an engineer.

      ​@@phxgen I was just saying that some people's obsession with death is a symptom of their neurotic hypochondriac personality type which is an ANOMALOUS minority. So his statement should have been "some people will do anything to prevent dying" which takes some of the kick out of the phrase and makes it somewhat meaningless as you kind find some people willing to go to great lengths to do just about anything. Only an ANOMALOUS minority of people are obsessed with death and among those some are eager for death (self-destructive) while others are obsessed with warding it away (neurotic hypochondriac). It's nice to see that the pedantic wordplay enthusiast fedora species is still alive and well on the internet as it's always so interesting to encounter their bizarre self-invented rules of logic. Why does a small minority of people being suicidal somehow stop mattering because it's anomalous? Do the behaviours of rich people not matter because there are only a few of them? The biggest psychological type isn't even a majority of people, only a plurality. I just love people who argue through ad hominem attacks, convoluted wordplay, and the illusion of statistics without actually stating them (saying the rate of self-destructive behaviors is vaguely ANOMALOUS without giving anything close to any kind of percentage). Self-destructiveness is a common trait to human nature, just look at diet and addictions for evidence of that. Look up Freud's concept of the death drive and contemplate how supposedly life hungry human beings could vigorously leap into two world wars that killed over a hundred million people.

      Oh hell, how incredibly daft of me. What you meant is so obvious now. How on earth did I initially fail to extrapolate that whole novella from this single sentence? "That's such a moronic thing to say, seeing how many people kill themselves."
      "So his statement should have been "some people will do anything to prevent dying" which takes some of the kick out of the phrase and makes it somewhat meaningless..."
      The original "people will spend almost any amount of money to not die" is every bit as vague, kick-free, and meaningless. Not "all people," or even "most people," just "people." Not "any amount of money," just "almost any amount of money." The only thing I find more befuddling about this thread than anyone considering the NDT version to be something deep or meaningful, is you considering it important enough to hammer out a giant paragraph explaining why he should have instead said something so equally drab.
      "...the illusion of statistics without actually stating them..."
      Oh I know, right?!? Fucking people.
      So uhhh, how many people kill themselves?
      "Why does a small minority of people being suicidal stop mattering because it's anomalous? Do the behaviors of rich people not matter because there are only a few of them?"
      Where the fuck did I or anyone in this thread say anything at all like tha-
      Oh, wait. I think I did use the word "anomalous," didn't I? Of course, it's only natural to assume that was me implying that suicide doesn't matter. Everybody should kill themselves. Or nobody should. Whatever, I don't give a FUCK! Further, I think rich people should be allowed to... no, _compelled_ to eat toddlers. Live ones, feet first! Man, some of us sure are good at accurately inferring a whoooole lot from very, very little these days. Totally reasonable to extrapolate "all self-destructive behavior" from my use of the word "suicide" as well. I guess I need to be a lot more careful with my words. Damn my rotten old brain, always forgetting which individual characters betray all of my elaborate and morally repugnant convictions!
      Seriously though, did I say "anomalous?" I wonder if I said "anomalous."

      Energy has/involves GRAVITY, AND ENERGY has/involves inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE. C4 is the proof of the fact that E=mc2 IS F=ma ON BALANCE. This explains the fourth dimension. TIME is NECESSARILY possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE, AS E=MC2 IS F=MA ON BALANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity !!! The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. E=MC2 IS F=ma. ("Mass"/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity.) The EARTH/ground AND what is THE SUN are CLEARLY (on balance) E=MC2 AS F=ma. TIME dilation ULTIMATELY proves ON BALANCE that E=MC2 IS F=ma IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity !!! (Gravity IS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy.) The sky is blue, AND THE EARTH is ALSO BLUE. The stars AND PLANETS are POINTS in the night sky. E=MC2 IS F=ma ON BALANCE. Great !!! This NECESSARILY represents, INVOLVES, AND DESCRIBES what is possible/potential AND actual IN BALANCE, AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity. GRAVITATIONAL force/ENERGY IS proportional to (or BALANCED with/as) inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/ENERGY IS GRAVITY. Gravity/acceleration involves BALANCED inertia/INERTIAL RESISTANCE, AS E=MC2 IS F=ma ON BALANCE; AS ELECTROMAGNETISM/energy is gravity !!! It all CLEARLY makes perfect sense. BALANCE AND completeness go hand in hand.

      Carl was a Scientist who did lots of research and learned how to communicate that.
      Both people and both skills are very important to Scientific discovery. If you cannot communicate what has been learned, what is theorized, what is considered fairly solid and why then other cannot learn from and build upon (or disprove) those thoughts.

    On a tiny scale I saw the difference between industry and science when it comes to making investment decisions first hand. My first years I spent in a public services research facility. Even there, projects were more likely to get funded if they had "practical" applications. But to a much lesser degree as I saw later in my years in industry, where companies would not even want to invest into the successors of their currently profitable products. Exploitation vs exploration over and over again. In my country (germany) I came to conclude that the tax system (and how it forces companies into short term fiscal planning) is a major blocker for innovation. So governments are not always the solution to the problem but sometimes also part of the problem. I feel, that this aspect was left out in this video.

      @@Pimpmedown There is research in an a sense as it happens in academia and there is research in the sense as it happens in industry. Before a company can invest into new types of products or alternate technologies even in the same domain, some form of research and development needs to be done. For that to be possible, companies need to be able to save up and manage their finances over longer stretches of time (way longer than a year) than the tax rules allow for without having severe penalties. The system penalizes the building up of "war chests" and everything has to be lean. Having surplus and trying to save it up for long term investment simply gets you higher (over the top) taxes as tax wise it counts just like net profit.

      @fhajji 4 года назад

      Excessive taxation such as in Germany only exacerbates the problem by siphoning more money out of corporations, that COULD otherwise have been invested in R&D -- although corporate R&D is tax-deductible in most modern countries, and it is a safe bet that this is also the case in Germany... BUT anyway, the basic issue remains the same: corporations have, by their very profit-oriented nature, no long-term planning; Governments on the other hand MAY. So even if most of that tax money goes down the drain, at least SOME of it, and if only a tiny fraction, still may be used to fund Universities and other public research institutions. That money would otherwise have gone to the investors (or worse: would have been burnt in ruinous acquisitions and mergers). So, it's no as black and white as one may think.

      last I checked, if you're poor, you don't have the ability to self educate into a post graduate degree in engineering or physics. you're too busy trying to not starve to death. government support of a space program is the first step to getting anything funded. then the government also has to support the lowest levels of education all the way up to the highest levels. that requires a huge 'pipeline of capital' also, UAE has built... ALL THOSE SKYSCRAPERS... if I recall correctly they've built more stories in a shorter timespan than ANY SOCIETY IN HUMAN HISTORY. and they continue to expand. so I do believe that proves their culture is more than capable of supporting very advanced engineering and mathematics systems. even IF THEY HIRED OUT all the architecture designs to foreign corporations, the government would have to plan the infrastructures to support all those buildings, the construction materials supplies, thousands upon thousands of other details. if you believe the Arabian Peninsula is that rich off of only oil? wow, you do not understand ANYTHING about their governments' infrastructures and wealth generation systems. the ENTIRETY of the WHOLE PENINSULA'S oil reserves was initially discovered and developed by the American exploration and oil industry infrastructure expertise. our companies relocated and trained THREE GENERATIONS of employees, almost FIFTY YEARS worth of employees to the US. the Arabians CONTINUE to send many students here to the US who are children and grand-children of oil corporation employees for their educations. the huge profits from the state owned oil corporations in Arabia? they INVEST the largest amounts of their yearly profits all over the world in other companies and industries as well as supporting their own countries. so, the UAE having the FIRST ARAB NATION'S space program doesn't prove to you that they're committed to the industry?

    3. Propaganda: demostrarte who is more powerful, have a better future and should be followed.
    Of course, working on the spacial sector there are people that "loves" the knowledge and thinks that the sector is essential for the future of human kind. But that is not the people that takes the big decitions (involving big money and resources). The people that takes the decitions are the very powerful and very rich that are interested in increasing their power and richness and not in the future of of human kind.

      The AEU and people there pushing for science and technology are admirable. To revive the Golden Age of science will have the effect of bringing peace and prosperity in the region.
      These efforts may influence the retrograde people across the pond in Iran.
      Those talented Iranians who perish under a backward looking Shiite regime, may find a future in the AEU.
      It’s a matter of goodwill and thinking beyond all prejudices. At the time of Ma’moon, all scientists irrespective of their ethnicities found a seat at the big table in Baghdad.
      That spirit must be awakened. This is something that must be awakened locally and not play a second fidel to the importation of science from the West.
      Talented people, Indians, Iranians, Pakistanis and from all Arab countries should get together in the AEU.
      Right now they are attracted to NASA and defence industries in the United States and other western countries.
      The spillover will be to create cooperation which will bring in peace and prosperity replacing the present despondency. Muslims will start winning Nobel Prizes and soon the retro grades will crawl back to their caves where they belong.

      @Miles Gore The government is a customer to these companies. Any company that can do it cheaper would get the contract. The government writes the spec and company x will execute at the agreed upon price. That is free enterprise, that is supply & demand, that is capitalism. The fact that you don't understand that invalidates your entire argument.
      GM contracts almost all of its parts and tools out to its suppliers, that's kind of its business model. Does that mean that GM isn't a profit-driven company in the world of capitalism? Spoiler alert, they still make money, especially when they have a stake in those suppliers. Maybe one day when you're older I'll explain vertical vs. horizontal integration to you.

      Wrong !
      Humans will be on Mars in the next 6 years, and that fact doesn't depend on the Moon base.
      NASA can do the job of building a base on the Moon, but private companies (Elon Musk) will send humans to Mars, even if that group of people die on the surface of Mars.
      If a group of 3 human beings land on Mars in 2025., you can be sure that another group of people will be send on Mars in the year 2026., and arrive on Mars in 2027.
      The laws of physics are not against our exploration of Mars with our own hands, legs and eyes.
      We can create both of a bases in the same time ; one on Mars, and one on the Moon.
      Just be patient and wait for 5 years.
      In 2024. humans will start a long distance journey, and in 2025 J will see you in these comment section.

      Its funny cause private enterprise and interested laymen were making rockets for a long time before governments got involved and decided to ban and regulate the hell out of getting to space. Forcing people to get government permission first, setting up massive hurddles, making it extremely expensive to get into business. So even starting a small business for fun and building it to see where it goes is pointless.
      Moon express spent 20 million campaigning congress just for permission to get to the moon.
      And Tyson doesnt even realise the billions which is spent with zero return and zero chance of return by private individuals and businesses. People will do it out of love, out of interest, out of chance, cause they love to gamble, and out of charity. And way more is spent on voluntary research than governments spend.
