      anything can be made to float! Steel is denser than water but shape it the right way and it can be made to float. What matters is the buoyant force acting on the object sitting at the fluids surface and the buoyant force depends on the density of the fluid, acceleration due to titan's gravity and the submerged volume! If the force of gravity is less than or equal to the buoyant force then there is no way the object can sink!

    Wouldn't the methane in the atmosphere ignite when it comes in contact with the exhaust of the descending spaceship? Or would the absence of oxygen ensure that doesn't happen?

    • @jonathonpolk3592
      @jonathonpolk3592 Год назад

      Well I'm not a chemist, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't ignite without oxygen. Most fuels don't combust in the absence of O2. Perhaps some micro combustion would happen if there was any O2 in the exhaust that could react with methane in the atmosphere, but it would be really small amounts that would probably not even be visible to the eye. I read somewhere that acetylene could react with methane on Titan, but I don't think it naturally exists in significant amounts on the moon. So I don't think you have to worry about setting the atmosphere on fire; you'd probably have a really difficult time even starting a simple campfire on Titan.

Not only because it could disrupt fusion processes in the sun, but because it would be energy cost prohibitive. We are moving so fast around the sun that it would take tremendous energy to slow anything down enough to hit the sun. We can't even make rockets with large enough fuel tanks to do this. Apparently, the best way is to take a long trip by flying to the outer reaches of the solar system then using a slingshot technique around one of the gas giants to overcome all the momentum, but this takes decades to do.
