Dove Satellite - Observing Earth With A Cubesat
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- I paid a visit to Planet, they're one of my 'neighbours' in San Francisco's SOMA district. Their business is planetary imaging and they've launched over 100 Dove Cubesats which are built around the largest possible camera you can fit in a cubesat.

Sometimes you forget how important quality audio is until you don't have it.
By now we should have neural nets that can fix that in postprocessing
I love just looking at google maps so seeing a change every day would be amazing!
+haeblcldoe tahbecrdee we all miss that show.
+haeblcldoe tahbecrdee at least it wasn't over used like the Simpsons.
Cai Jones I think this past season of the simpsons was pretty good. Not as good as the old simpsons but still pretty good. they may be making a comeback
quiet meatbag.
You can actually hook up to the Planet API. The value is being able to do GIS on top of it.
My ears there dying from the Eco
Me Brain is dying from your spelling.
yep, sucks that I put my lapel mics in the wrong bag, I had to improvise.
+Scott Manley haha
Wow? You met Scott?!?!
IT'S SPELLED ECHO!
What a cool company! Great video
They also have beer in their break room......
+Scott Manley satellites and beer, great combo
+Scott Manley so they are Kerbal Players from the Test Squadron?
+Scott Manley so they are Kerbal Players from the Test Squadron?
I think +Scott Manley should be behind the controls of every rocket that will ever launch, with beer
I'd really like to see the final result of this thing. It sounds so cool!
If it's the size of an American luch box then expect an eclipse very soon.
Haha, that pun tho..
lmao
8:38 when the sattelite agency has hackertyper pulled up to look productive.....
I'm going to assume it's because they didn't want to have their actual software on screen.
+Jonathan Clarke precisely what I think would be the case
Jonathan Clarke if the camera is that blurry, they don't need to hide anything, ha.
+Ian Stallings SSH communications doesn't usually contain squiggly brackets and indentation, it looks a lot more like code. Hacker typer uses the Linux kernel (I believe) as text which fits a lot more with the image especially as most people wouldn't choose green and black for serious code editing - dark themes are usually black, white, purple and blue.
+Brice Johnson If I had private code that I didn't want the public to have I wouldn't leave it to chance, Scott could have forgotten to blur it.
Thank you Scott and Planet for taking the time to show us this cool tech!
Scott, these interviews and the cool real science things are my favorite of your videos. Please keep them coming!
wow, this is so freaking cool. Being someone who was studying engineering and now am studying forestry, this tickles all my happy spots. I'm excited for the future.
Now I'm going to use tweak-scale to make teeny- tiny satellites, thanks for the vid!
You'l get a cookie from me if you manage to launch enough sats to crash KSP permanently.
Aww now that's not fair. I need to make KSP use more than 16 GB of ram and overwhelm a page-file that's on a fast ssd. Perhaps 100 satellites in LKO. I'll start loading my Space K Phoenix 9's
ksp does not use more than 16 gb of ram? i thought if u have 64 bit program on a 64 bit OS it uses all ram available?
Not that, I only have 16GB in my machine. After that Windows starts using the pagefile which should lead to KSP crashing (in theory)
Vic Viper i heard u should just disable page file IIRC.
However its quite a bit more expensive then your avreage lunch box XD
a bit
actually it's £5.99 from your local supermarket
*5.99!?* _(starts shooting with a pair of machine guns that appeared out of nowhere while "Here Comes the Fuzz" blares)_
How much does it cost?
I live 40km away from Amatrice and it was interesting to see the images before and after the main earthquake
I never noticed how small his ears are.
Or perhaps it's that his head is unusually large to encompass that genius brain?
They're proportionally small regardless.
I think you're just antiauribus.
the cabriolet phenomenon...
And here I thought this was just a (very good) Kerbal gaming channel. This video was fantastic! Thank you very much!
That rocket engine at the end was a lot of fun to see.
Subscribed.
Cool company! Good questions! Interesting video!
Fantastic interview! What a cool product!
Brilliant, great video. Thanks Scott.
SCOTTT THIS S THE EARLIEST IVE BEEN TO YOUR SHOW
We need more space tech videos like this!
Awesome, thanks for sharing, Scott!
Very interesting video, Scott!
Same vernier engine here as the pic on the wikipedia article about vernier engines (found whilst looking for more info on the subject). Love the stepper (or more likely servo) motor
Can you believe there are still people alive today that honestly believe that the Earth is flat.
I am not joking around, these people not only exist but are vocal about their beliefs.
Check them out, and feel your mind slowly dissolve from the melting idiocy.
+Daniel Domeisen I don't need to go and check them out they drop by all the time.
... they do? I was thinking they would avoid you like the plague.
I have no idea how these people could think this, there is such a massive volume of facts, science, and just out right reality that goes against their ideas.
Some of them even say gravity doesn't exist... Yeah that one hurt my soul.
I am honestly stunned they want to deal with you at all, i mean your WHOLE channel is about teaching or Edu-taining with science they say is not real.
+Daniel Domeisen but muh fake gravity
going to assume that was a joke :)
No some people literally think that gravity doesn't exist. like i said, check them out if you want to feel a bit of pain in your soul.
"Gravity isn't real, the flat Earth is accelerating upward at 9.8 m/s/s."
What about the speed of light? Wouldn't the acceleration stop at some point?
"Well, uh... the speed of light isn't real either"
Love these videos Scott, keep 'em coming!
Thank you for bring that to us, it was awesome!
I still can't get over the dozen of those that survived - and I machined a lot of parts of the those ones. Ridiculous to think that they'd survive an explosion like that.
Wow I have just finished reading The Economist article about Doves
Another very interesting video Scott :)
A "flock" of satellites I love it!!
awesome company and video!
Such amount of tech in such small satellite.
Best t-shirt ever!
Fascinating!! So damn cool man. I gotta get into the aerospace industry some day...
First frogs are photobombing launches, and now Doves too! :P
13:50 IS THAT A STEPPER MOTOR ON A 1960 VERNIER ENGINE?? AMAZING!!
The new annotation/link system you use at the end of the video causes the video to skip directly to the end on mobile. It's great that they finally got around to making links that work on mobile devices, to bad it's so buggy.
Never had a problem here 😕
Great video Scott. I'd love to see more.
Hello Scott, thanks for great video and please do more like this... Game videos are good but pure science ones are awesome!
Cube sat made of cubic octagonal struts?
...
This was a really, really interesting vid, thanks!
It survived! Wow.
Great Scott
can't wait for them to create a subsidiary called Planet Express... it can go hand in hand with Planet Federal, showing companies in the USA that interplanetary delivery for affordable rates is just around the corner
Awesome stuff. Can you imagine what can be done with more small sats like that.
I bet there are some cool things that you can discover when you own your own satellite fleet.
Thank you for this very intersting video! Love'd it.
this is awesome!
My university's CubeSat team that I am a part of just received funding, hopefully our launch goes at least a little bit better haha
Ryan ... a year on how's this going? ..
That's really neat, had no idea we had baby sats out there
kevin6666123 There should be about 200 of the little buggers who have made orbit. Alot of Universities and private companies have been building them, because they are affordable and can be used for whatever you can imagine.
all u guys complaining about the echo.... honestly stop complaining its not that bad
Actually it is pretty bad... it was hard for me me to hear sometimes. It's not gonna make me unsub, but it was annoying.
Also, I noticed that you avatar pic is the razor gaming logo... do you have permission to use it?
I heard every word of the people in the video and English is not even my native language. Also, what are you? The copyright police?
im deaf in one ear and i couldnt understand anything in this vid.
Nope just a type of cancer
pyro854 actually its a public picture so, yes I do have permission to use it.
Great! now do an earth sized sat observing a lunchbox!
About that vernier motor, it says "truax variant," so maybe that was one of the ones Bob Truax bought.
Fires here in Portugal. Didnt know you guys knew of this...
well they have sattelites :D
That was awesome, hope you get to take us with you on any other techseeing voyages of yours! =)
this is awesome you should do more interviews :)
This is very cool. I am currently working on a weather balloon project and I always enjoy spending time with the AMSAT team when the annual ham radio convention comes to town. I wonder if I could ever hook up with a team like Planet... better go check LinkedIn....
This is great Scott. Any more companies you can tour and peek into their kitchen?
Why cant I find women like this in AZ.... Her talking about space is such a turn on! lol She is gorgeous also lol not to take away from her obvious smarts
The content is very interesting I wish the audio was better!! :(
that's amazing - goes to show what technology today can do.
This is a good video Scott. There was a lot of great information. But just a bit of constructive criticism. The sound quality was awful. As a polite request, please use a boom mic for future videos in a small space. = )
+Minority of thought I have a bunch of lapel mics, and they ended up in the wrong bag.
Scott, could you please do a predictions video on SpaceX's Mars colony architecture? That is if you have predictions at all. also big fan, I've been watching for years.
okay. 4:50 is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. It just makes me so nervous imagining being totally free in space like that.
Hey Scott! Really nice to see such interviews! Keep it up, really nice to see what is really going on right now! Just work on the sound a bit ^^ Thanks for the material!!
incredibly smart and pretty. :)
Not related to the main topic, but I wonder why that vernier engine has a stepper motor-powered linear actuator on one side. I've never heard of attitude control rockets with thrust vectoring, but that's what this one looks like.
Legends say, Scott answers, maybe not....you never know....
That is amazing!
There are few things that can compare to standing next to an actual rocket engine, long enough to really appreciate its design.
Ah the Manley Scotsman has uploaded another video :D
Appreciate the content. As others pointed out, the audio could be better.
This is really amazing! I have no idea how they could keep up with 5 terrabytes of data a day... Massive overhauls in infrastructure would have to be made as well as huge investments in servers
Eh, 5TB/day is not that crazy if we're talking about "industrial" internet business. RUclips had like an average daily bandwidth useage of 200TB/day back in 2014 or something like that, so probably a lot more than that today.
Modern automated tape drives could easily make this possible at low storage costs.
My last name is Dove. Did not know that there was a satellite named after me. :)
Are they visible from earth? I saw some faded light going by ... diagonal with star movements
Scott, you probably already know this, but minimizing microphone distance minimizes echo and noise.
You can see the mic was as close as I could get it, I only had the one mic and left my lapel mics in the wrong bag.
Scott Manley Ah, oh well. I liked the interview and I'm excited about what might come from these satellites :)
Where can I get one of those? XD However, if you made a small orbit capable rocket for carrying cubesats, what would the Dove imaging satellite weigh?
Their mission control clock is ticking too slowly and at 8:29 it compensates by jumping from 47 to 49. Please don't tell the flat earthers.
Could you take carpets (or something) with you next time against the echo?
If I am correct ISRO launched their 98, satellites back in the day to made world record?
I now have a new thing I want to do. Build a space station then fire cube sats out.
Good video, couple of questions: how much does it cost to launch one of these? and how long they stay in orbit?
Also why didn't they put solar panels on the other side of the array? just asking
As many technical things I could talk about, I can't get over the fact that the girl is a GODESS.
Would the same kind of optics and satellite work for making photos of space objects?
I didn't quite get it how they spread out the satelites.
As far as I understood, up there is a small amount of atmosphere which they can use to spread out the satelites.
But won't they become slower and slower over time till they get deeper into the atmosphere and finally fall down?
Ah thanks, looks like I missed this somehow.
So how long can they operate? A couple of years till they burn up?
Cool
Will they be launching with Rocket Lab?
I want to see Scott try to dock in KSP in a solar orbit without SAS
+MrMike 3658 been there, done that, can't be bothered to find the video.
Neat.
Is is so strange to hear Rocket Labs talked about as this future rocket.
Almighty God says:
And it is He who spread the earth and placed therein firmly set mountains and rivers; and from all of the fruits He made therein two mates; He causes the night to cover the day. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought.
[Quran 13:3]
Whats this about, no one cares what your stupid book says.
+Ethan Roberts *tips*
ISRO launch 80+ dove satellite in one go
15 Flat Earthers are not happy about this video.
Fascinating! Cool video Scott. How did you hear about them and get an invite?
+richb313 I asked if I could drop by.
Thanks
Think I spied a bit of MATLAB error output on one screen there...
its so cute :3 ill take 7.
seriously though cool as hell. you know how much it costs for them to make and launch one?
How can we access the pictures taken by the satellite
I'm sorry, scott, I know it's not your fault but the terrible echo makes this unwatchable.
well it is his fault ;D he stated he forgot the lapel mic in another bag...
Well, fine, but that doesn't mean I want to jump down the guy's throat. ♥
It's actually reverb, not echo.
motersk313 it's actually both, reverb and echo. Echo is long distance reflection of sound, reverb is when it's an echo that reaches the ear in less than 0.1 seconds.
+Justin Koenig technically not correct.
echo is the reflection of sound off an exterior object.
reverb is an echo produced at the source of the sound. either digitally, or a chamber inside the mic.
if they don't sell this data, how do they get funding for this project. god knows such a thing is crazy expensive
+danz409 they do sell this data.
The data is remarkably valuable, so far with a lot of customers in finance being able to make more timely forecasts in agricultural and energy sectors - obviously with more applications possible too.
Planet Labs also (awesomely, I might add) has been making data available for free during disasters and humanitarian crises.
danz409 Countries such as Brazil use images such as these to detect illegal logging.
How much does each satellite unit cost in itself?
