Wonderful: space docks like in Star Trek. In the long run we can even build space crafts there, that don't necessarily have to be able to escape earth's gravity, for inter planetary travel and to boldly go where no one has gone before! I LOVE the refrabricator, by the way. A great example of why NASA is not just good for space, but also for the earth, because this prototype will be eventually implemented into our daily lives and help us recycle plastic better.
Putting 3D printers in space was probably the first idea I had when I learned about them. Glad to see this is going somewhere, even if slowly. And for getting raw materials into space, we can use a huge railgun to get things into orbit with pretty much no propellant at all. This would let us create a dedicated orbit just for the space factories, already lined up to have regular material pickups in containers that can can be sending out plastic filaments/rolls, metal powders, prefab components (like solar panels, mirrors, antennas), more robots, liquified gasses, and so on at much cheaper rates, much more often; containers that can de-orbit themselves once the delivery has been made along very predictable trajectories, and perhaps allow for deliveries of goods made in zero-G to come back to Earth. It would take a lot of the rocket science of getting into space.
Kyle Walton you most likely need a futuristic mentality to have interest in this. also, we aren't really in space yet... not like we should be anyway. people are into what' here on earth ATM.
I think this talk got too complicated for people to make dumb remarks about flat earth and/or aliens/the matrix/reptilians/niburu/whatever's in vogue right now. Unfortunately these comments often make up the bulk of the comment sections nowadays. Let's all get this one going by sharing it somewhere, because it's really interesting and inspirational imho.
+ NatalieCatLee Actually, earth is neither flat nor is it round. Earth is shaped like a triangle octagon with two angles pointing towards outer space. But the illuminati elite group doesn't want us to know this secret knowledge because tomorrow is Monday. And you know what happens on Monday? The aliens coming out from the tree trunks where they were hiding for ten thousand years now, waiting for the right moment to transform our precious minds into the realm of the matrix. Are you satisfied?
What a juxtaposition of trippy mind-blowing, along with the hardest engineering concepts I've seen on space manufacturing. I'm only surprised he didn't cover asteroid 'mining' (I use quotes because taking apart and using all of an asteroid is a totally different endeavor than earthbound mining).
First, we need to reinvent ourselves. One day, we will have enough knowledge, and the right ideas how to explore space the right way. Until then, keep on learning, keep on imagining new possibilities, keep on experimenting. How can we realistically expect to have so much advancement in technology happening one after another like in the last 100 years. We have to be patient. Sooner or later we will venture out to space like never before, with incredible technology and intelligence, and we will do all those things that must be done in order to fulfill our wildest hopes and dreams. One day. Keep dreaming BIG!
This isn't one of the most rousing TEDx presentations. But Robert Hoyt's company, Tethers Unlimited, has some mind blowing technology for space transportation and development. Check out some of his presentations at the NAIC conferences and the papers on the company web site. For example, a proposed system for transporting a spacecraft from earth to Mars and back without rockets and very little fuel.
re hashing the known .. also, not much of the more detailed examples like that plastics recycler that the announced topic led me to expect ... that is why this show disappoints everybody and why it does not get recommended to get more viewers/views.
Great speech! This truly needs more views. We need more people working towards the huge goal of space construction, mining and colonization!

Food for thought indeed. Thank You!
I'm surprised by the low number of views.

we must have space trucks to deliver loads

But, but... why is the spider a “she”?
Earth had a runway greenhouse in the past? Well I guess it is a natural thing.
it is. only not at its current pace
Man made CO2 is the issue.
The dull alloy periodically open because low thessaly regret notwithstanding a daffy kendo. dreary, mundane france
Poor speaker, great ideas
Exactly my thought.. :-) He's obviously nervous..
It's notvthe information delivered, but the speaker's lack of charisma. Unfortunately, just a completely uninspiring talk.
