Never underestimate a piece of metal moving at high speed.
It's simple, yet effective.
Same as Mike Tyson's quote "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth!"
ape throw rock good.
when rock not big enough, throw bigger rock. when rock not fast enough, throw rock harder.

Rail guns are far more efficient in the vacuum of space. Velocities are much higher due to lack of atmospheric interference.
Muzzle velocity doesn’t decrease due to atmospheric drag AND stays more accurate with lesser influence of gravity.
@@vanguard9067iff that was true you could shoot any distance with any gun....
@@CountryAndProud an object in motion tends to remain in motion.
@@vanguard9067 you left off half of that.... unless acted upon by an outside force...the atmosphere..gravity...
@@CountryAndProud my reply to comment referencing railgun in space = no atmospheric drag and LESSER influence from gravity (allowing for projectile to eventually interact with other masses in space). If a .30-06 projectile traveling at 3,000 fps maintains its speed in intergalactic space for a billion miles in essentially a straight line for 55+ years is that close enough to shooting “any distance with any gun”?
Very good story 👏👏👏👏. Definitely realistic 😊
Aerodynamic space craft? Someone needs to take physics 101 again. -1
Not really. But what ever.
Agree. The extremely low density of matter in the vacuum of space (particularly intergalactic space) means there is no drag reduction nor does it facilitate pitch, roll, or yaw from control surfaces.
You talking about the AI designed images trained on fighter planes, some of which look like they were designed by an insane drunk on crack?
Yeah.
If they are intended to fly both in space and planetary atmospheres ,then they definitely need to be aerodynamic.
@@vincentmcclain579 Think about Carriers. They have Atmosphere in them. Every little progress in Aerodynamics takes strain from the Engines for even better maneuverability and reliability.
All that money and no one thought to put sensors around the solar system ?
Why would they put sensors around the solar system I'm still scratching their head while they want to do any of this if they didn't even know aliens were real lol
@@Kilroy238_ they could be used to shatter or change directions of asteroids.
@@TrackstarBR Jep. That´s the Point. More Sensors mean more coverage of the SS. More coverage means better following trajectories of shattered objects. So all in all it is rarely bad to know more than you have to. At least when it comes to potentially harmful objects coming towards you.
I´m not sure if we are alone or not, but I don´t care. I want to know if there is ANYTHING aproaching Earth. Be it an Astoroid or an Enemy Vessel.
@killroy238_ when it comes to Defence you need to think ahead. Like in so many fields of RL. But in Planetary Defence it is never too bad to prepare for the Borg(maybe even 10C or Q) even if the only thing you see are asteroids coming.
@@Kilroy238_ Please don´t be angry with us. we just want to discuss.
@@faultier407 who's angry?
Mach 30 = 10 km/s. 30+ sec to ISS, 1ß+ hours to moon, 40+ hours to JWST. Very much time to dodge!
100 years ago we had projectiles moving at 1.5 kps
@@outinthesticks1035 Yes, we had. In the video is explicitly said the projectiles are moving with Mach 30 = 10 kps.
Mark 30 is a meaningless number in space but if you actually multiply 30 by 670 mph you come up with a very slow speed for space travel for that projectile to reach the edge of the solar system would require something in the nature of about 10 years.
Peace through superior firepower
Si vis pacum, parabellum
>aliens attacking
>SIR THE EXPERTS BELIEVE THEY MIGHT BE FROM ANOTHER WORLD!
shocking revelation
Fred Saberhagen..Berserker..Warp Railgun.
Wait, how did the railguns not work in the first half of the battle, then suddenly be the ultimate weapons?
I think they forgot to mention being closer and/or manual targeting.
they just werent hitting due to their aiming systems being jammed by the aliens
Aerodynamics has no use in space, only in atmosphere.
But it looks cool and what if they are designed to enter atmosphere and land?
I'd go with a mac( magnetic acceleration cannon) rail guns require barrel replacement after a few shots due to the friction created. Not a problem with mac's
4000 quatloo's the humans cannot be contained!
9:08 see this part here just breaks the story for me. Extraterrestrial Invaders were beyond the thought of comprehension? Then why did you spend trillions to build the railguns pointing out to space? 😂
😂😅😂
What kind of shock wave do these things generate? Since they’re ground based, throwing heavy chunks of tungsten through our atmosphere and into space would make a bunch of sonic booms. Maybe more like meteors…check the videos about the small one that almost hit Russia, before it exploded in the air. That boom could be heard hundreds of miles away.
Heard.... but felt? Also the Shockwave would travel more or less alongside the trajectory of the projectile. Moving away from earth. It would be LOUD, don´t get me wrong. But i would think more about air resistance and friction what would cause a Burning projectile reaching some immense heat. How hot does ozone need to get so it burns? I don´t know.
My first question would be if as they just said they thought they were the only people in the universe of course any attacker would need to be extraterrestrial who did they think they were building the railguns to fight to shoot if not at extra terrestrials?
If you listened you would have heard that they were talking about worst case scenarios. An Alien Attack was just mentioned as a possibility. Mainly they went for Astroids.
Rail gun vs asteroid -- interesting
At certain speeds an impact of an object can cause a similar effect of a thermonuclear weapon. It maybe more effectibe than you thought. (Sorry for grammar mistakes english is not my native language)
Boys and their toys. Count me in.
The story is about ground based guns. That's correct. Everybody gets all excited about space based railguns including Halo's MAC's but they forget one thing. Newtons Third Law. Equal and opposite reaction. One shot and your gun platform goes flying away out of control. The nanosecond that projectile starts to move so does the gun throwing off the targeting so even that one shot is useless. Yeah, I know talk like that gets me thrown out of ComiCon. The walking buzzkill.
Dual railgun, shooting equal projectiles in opposite directions? Better watch what's behind.
Too bad the Earth's escape velocity is about mach 33. They're basically shooting slugs into orbit. I suppose that's good, since the slug will impact the earth again on the first orbit, if it misses its target, instead of becoming an eternity bullet.
And all the ones that miss their targets just keep on going forever until they hit a star or some otherwise friendly aliens who are now really pissed at us. Also, "the laws of aerodynamics"? In hard vacuum? Dude.
This is the time for the use of EMP. This is a technology we had a long time. It appears to me the writer forgot this
They are speaking about energyshields and jamming of targetsystems. I think it would be easy for them to ignore an EMP.
Story is literally written by an AI, and voiced by an AI 😂 pretty soon they won't even need us to listen to their stories anymore
@@3RAN7ON True
Why was the largest rail gun not initiated and deployed in the beginning? When did the targeting become effective? Did the aliens just stop jamming the targeting systems? Poor continuity.
Where did they get enough metal to make rain guns big enough?
Kuiper belt 😄
Railguns are magnetic. What's with the flames? Atmospheric friction?
This sounds like halo :)
Don't we already have rail cannons?
Not that large.😊
yes the mew carriers use them to launch aircraft
There was an active project and they were successful at creating a railgun that would launch tungsten …. bullets? projectiles? (don’t know how to call it) at several times the speed of sound but, the project was put in hold because the tungsten projectile would destroy the barrel after firing a couple of times.
@@georgebourgeois8978not the same thing in practice.
No
at 2 minutes "50 meter barrels" within the atmosphere ? ? ? SMH
17:18 ". . . the aliens attacked the Earth for its resources . . . " when there are moons and asteroids and comets? L O L
As one of my favorite physics professors once said. The only thing of Value on Earth is Water. And THAT you can get off from Astroids even easyier than from Planets.
@@faultier407 well . . . . water is the medium within which life functions. But life needs a wide range of materials as building blocks.
And society needs . . . a wide range of materials as building blocks.
Yes, if we are going to become a solar system civilization then in situ resource utilization is much, much better than lifting everything out of Earth's gravity well.
@@robertgraybeard3750 Life as we know it, I would say. But discussions about if life is based solely on Carbon are so plentiful that I am not capable to take either side.
So. Do we agree to say it would be easyier to farm the SS as a whole than to farm a single Planet?
@@faultier407 Certainly. I expect our future solar system will have robots mining the planets and moons while some people will live on Earth but the majority will live in large space habitats rotating for artificial gravity. I think the Dyson Swarm is our future.
Here's a classic TV interview from 1975 ruclips.net/video/DM88sUBTTRM/видео.html
Also, we will have to figure out how to do starships and settle the galaxy, using asteroids and comets in each new solar system.
Terraforming planets will take an astronomical effor and will probably not be necessary.
Sorry but the ai voice irritated me more and more as the story went on. had to stop halfway through
Ditto.
I wonder if this The theoretical element neutronium is real, and like in Mass Effect positive current increase the mask of an object, negative current decrease the mask of an object.
Yeah. I feel you. But the more pressing question is. How to introduce a negative current without building a circuit, which would counter the charge? Do you Charge or discarge the projectile before firing? What happens with friction and such?
@@faultier407 To be honest, some questions are out of people's hands. Also, I think that maybe if you dig a little deeper the answer might be in your face and it's a simple one to accomplish question.
@@paytonturner1421 I think You´re right.
A lot of 'defiance', 'paper tearing' and 'fingers flying overkeyboards', going on... --- maybe these phrases should henceforth be banned from AI written SciFi stories?
Also, from other stories… “chittering”, “mandibles”, “carapace “…
I'm sorry one minit the rail guns cannot hit anything then the rail guns are obliterating the alions ships can you spot the falt in the storey line yes that's right there isent one
Rods of god.
At $10,000 per kg to put stuff into orbit, it’s cheaper to make nukes, than to launch that much mass into orbit.
@@goatkiller666 Is there Thungsten on the moon?
Okay this makes zero sense I was half enjoying this old story until they started in about how extraterrestrials were completely unknown then why in the hell did you need railguns that can shoot anywhere in the solar system?
the constant repetition is very annoying. is this human or AI created?
It is human, but its translation from foreign language ( Swedish) trough google translate and grammar is checked by AI. Thats a problem with AI it just repeats similiar words from Foreign language.
@@SciFiTime you would think that the person in charge of posting would listen to it and edit it before posting. i listen to the good ones 2 or even 3 times & click like each time but these repetitive ones i just jump to the end to see if the ending is worth suffering through it and then go back to the start. most are not worth suffering through. However if someone checks it before posting this would change. some channels which have repetitive boring posts i unsubscribe & don't even bother checking anymore
@@sdragut problem is 98% of people listen for 6 minutes max, so i must compress stories to get most of them before they click away. Most of people just want pacing.
@@SciFiTime i don't know what you mean by: "Most of people just want pacing." However your first statement is not true. if the story-line is good most people will happily listen for 20-40 minutes each episode. i will give you examples. "The black ship" from "SciFi Stories" has over 40 episodes most over 20 minutes long . i look forward to each episode
Black ship is well known series, from reddit it been around for 2 years on reddit.
This made no logical sense
This has got to be the worst story this channel has ever posted.
This story has one of the best retentions and view time on the channel. Thanks for feedback 😄👍
