I was 9 when Voyager 2 flew by Neptune, and got to stay up late as images came in. I remember everyone being piled up so close to the TV, and it was SO BLUE! I don't remember much from then, but I remember that VIVIDLY! You're absolutely killing it with these documentaries! Thanks brother!! 🌐🌎🌍🌏🙂🙃👍
You are continuously delivering high quality, superbly paced content! I'm by myself a sucker for all-things-space-under-construction-photos, always a pleasure to see those in your videos!
I remember the launch of Pioneer 10 quite well. At the time, there was significant controversy surrounding the use of radioactive material, along with concerns about the possibility of an explosion and the spread of radioactive substances over populated areas. Ultimately, history shows that NASA proceeded with the launch, and no subsequent missions were negatively affected by public fears.
Incorrect. There have been several launches with RTGs which created public fear over radioactive debris such as plutonium should the launch fail spectacularly. Galileo in 1989 (Time Magazine, 16 Oct 1989) and Cassini in 1997 (Baltimore Sun, 12 Oct 1997) are two such examples. New Horizons in 2006 was another.
None of the later missions compared to Pioneer 10. Every newspaper and television channel, including ABC, CBS, and NBC, made a big deal about its launch. While some news organizations later downplayed subsequent launches, often mentioning them only on page three or during the 11 o’clock news, the intensity and fear surrounding the Pioneer launch were unmatched.
What an awesome time to be alive. To witness the very first space probe to leave the inner solar system. I’m rather jealous that I couldn’t have been there
Haven't started watching yet, but I expect the video to be great! Some of my favorite space missions are Pioneer and Voyager, those photos still continue to blow my mind!
Totally agree. People act like we were sending hardcore images/videos on the probe. It was a drawn image of a naked human body. We ALL know what they look like.
47:29 I absolutely LOVE your videos and they make me love space and it's incredible mysteries that much more, but I gotta say when you sprinkle in your humor it is the icing on the cake. I was going to like the video regardless but “Arrokoth- I'm not repeating the numbers every time screw you" caught me so off guard as though I was called out specifically 😭 Great work
I'm sorry this video was still in my feed and I read my comment again and it sounds so unappreciative. This video and all yours are incredible. Very well researched, informative without going into too much detail, lack of profanity, good amount of humor, no political nonsense, acknowledges funny meme things without making them a stupid deal. They're all wonderful. Thanks for what you do, I really appreciate these. The topics you make videos on are inherently fascinating and there's really nothing else like them on the platform. Thank you!
Agreed, but it’ll never happen. The amount of misinformation and bad information on RUclips is absurd. Tech just loves to suck that sweet sweet fascist tech weirdo wang.
All right! Thank you. This was very informative. Very well put together, and answered a lot of my questions regarding solar system exploration. I enjoy your documentaries and learn a great amount of useful knowledge regarding astronomy, science, propulsion and from this one, the hardware used for deep space exploration. Thanks again. I always look forward to your well researched and thought out work!
Always a pleasure! I just rewatched your previous video last night and was hoping you would have a new one up soon! Absolutely my favorite aerospace history channel 🙏 Edit after watching the whole video: This is one of my favorite uploads yet! Extremely fascinating and truly a shame more of this knowledge isn't far more widely known! The bit about Cassini spawning around 4000 scientific papers was super cool and totally mind blowing; it seems too often people get hung up on the high costs of spaceflight without realizing just how much information we are able to glean from each mission. Very well done, as always but I happened to find this one especially engaging!
@MKdross yeah like the cost per paper is actually really cheap comparatively. I’ve been part of projects where a half a million dollar grant produces 2-3 papers. I obviously still think that’s worth it, but for the people complaining about the cost don’t realize how much information you a generated
Great video as always, keep up the good content ! Video idea: covering the european space programs like the Arianne program which I know nothing about.
I'm not finished with this video, about halfway through. The Voyager 1 & 2 missions launching back in the 1970s continuing to today really makes me wish NASA had better funding, so we could send more probes with today's tech to get better information about our little neighborhood in space. I should write my congresslizard...
@@teebob21 If it had scaled with the US budget from 1977 when Voyager 1 & 2 were launched, NASA would get about $50B a year. Then there's the auto-cancel rule for any project that goes over a certain percentage of its initial budget, i get wanting to reign in that type of waste, but don't have it automatically cancel without any sort of appeal or budget change.
@@teebob21 Last time I did the maths, NASA gets the same money as the average family spends on a single order of two and bit (maybe three now) takeaway pizzas per year.
I *love* deep space missions! When ESA's animated "Rosetta" series about the Rosetta mission came out, I was immediately hooked about our long-range probes. What's next? what about a video about the ISS?, considering you've covered the other American and russain space stations already.
Carl Sagan is the icon of scientific pursuit into outer space. Everytime I hear his interviews, presentations or quotes I am in awe, such a great human he seemed to be!
Pioneer 10 gets blasted to pieces by a Klingon ship that used it for target practice in Star Trek V the Final Frontier :) I remember the coverage of Voyager as a kid in 1979 and seeing the pictures on TV, of course Voyager also played a role at the end of the year in Star Trek The Motion Picture when one of the probes comes back to Earth looking for its Creator.
I'm a bit surprised you didn't mention Voyager 1 was originally intended to flyby Pluto but its course was changed to a Flyby of Titan as it was deemed a more important location to study due to its atmosphere
I remember watching the Horizon documentary (when the BBC made proper science programmes) talking about what the Voyager missions expected to find around Jupiter and its moons. The programme demonstrated the expected cyro volcanos using CO2 fire extinguishers.
Solar panel technology has greatly improved since the 1970s. If you make them big enough, they get the job done now - as I noted with the Juno mission.
This brief history was quite the trip down memory lane... One of my favorite science projects, 6th grade, (1990) was making a model of Voyager 2, and a model of what future probes would be like... i was way off by the way.
I'm surprised you didn't mention Cassini's Doppler shift problem. If I remember correctly, the engineers who discovered it had to fight to get mission control to listen to them, and the error caused them to lose half the pictures the Huygens probe took on its way down. If it wasn't for the fix, they wouldn't have been able to communicate with the probe at all.
I find it funny how despite Neptune and Uranus being an entirely different class of planets from Jupiter and Saturn, being ice giants instead of gas giants, they have only been visited once by a flyby and there are no current planned missions to either of them. They are neglected.
I have a question (as someone that is not very knowledgeable about these things). You mention that Galileo was only able to send data very slowly due the damage that had occurred. Later on it's mentioned how insanely fast it went through through the atmosphere, and then ultimately ceased to exist. But at the same time we did receive data from said entering of the atmosphere, right? How is that possible when data is only sent so slowly? Or is the data itself insanely small?
We received data from the atmospheric probe, not the orbiter. It had more than enough time to send that data to the orbiter, then the orbiter had all the time it needed to send back the probe data.
Pioneer 10 is interesting as it left the Solar System in a completely different direction than Pioneer 11, Voyager 1 and 2 and New Horizons.I think that it, Pioneer 10,is heading roughly in the direction of Aldebran a star i was looking at tonight as I watched the Moon and Mars coming up over the sea.
can you answer this please, since Jupiter is gas giant and composed solely of gas, how did comet Schumaker Levi 9 impact the ground as mentioned in min 35:00...everything is conflict to me when they report Jupiter has no surface, but we see black impact spots. Please help me understand
I said it impacted Jupiter, not the ground. The black impact spots are caused by different chemicals mixing together. Jupiter does not have a solid surface, but objects striking its cloud layers at extremely high speeds can still behave as though they have. Think about jumping off a tall bridge into the water. The water is not solid, but when your body hits it at a high speed, it will still behave as though it is solid.
I don't understand any of this, but I like to listen while I'm playing tanks or going to sleep. In KSP, I can get to Mun, but that is my limit. I get there easily. I completed my docking mission on runway.
