NEW VIDEO: End of Space – Creating a Prison for Humanity

 

Space travel is the most exciting adventure for humanity, but in an irony of history we may stop ourselves from going into space the more we do it. With every rocket launched we are creating a deadly trap for mankind.

Is it really!

Chawanat

is it too late already?

XIAOHE ZHOU

nice :)

SmansNob

that looks really dope dud

SmansNob

cool

banana bee

Mike can u help me please

Bryan help me please

Please Help me

Help me please

Love it!!... Kurzgesagt, Inkstall and Lemmino are my favourite youtube channels

I would suggest anyone here to read Planetes. A really good manga that in large parte treats the same argument: orbital space debris.

giosann

I like it

Dave Rovence Valdez

No kidding! It's so well done but I had no idea space debris posed such a threat!

Programmable Spacecraft

This video is amazing and upsetting at the same time.

Could someone check out my patreon ? I'm new to this.

The prison named earth

hi, please take a look at this information. Collisions between satellites have taken place before and it was not nice. Objects orbiting Earth develop these high speed velocities and there is nothing to stop them (except when they crash or when they reenter into the atmosphere and burn up). You could not do the same on Earth, because there is friction and they would lose speed as more distance is traveled <a href="https://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Operations/Space_Debris/About_space_debris" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Operations/Space_Debris/About_space_debris</a>

Whith your channel I can better understand Science. Thank you

Various aspects of GPS technology would be tricky to replicate at short notice, but a lot of internet infrastructure is based off fibre optics rather than satellite relays, so it's unlikely that the web itself would be shut down completely. The long-term danger to space exploration would be a shame though.

Question for smarter people: If most material in low earth orbit was launched eastward to take advantage of the earth’s rotation, and assuming most orbits are within a relatively narrow band of obliquity, why are we talking about relative velocites of 30,000 kph? Seems like most debris would have far lower velocities relative to debris in the same orbit. I can see where crossing this band perpendicularly might be difficult, in the same way that crossing a busy expressway perpendicularly would be asking for a crash.... but that’s why we merge into traffic.

Gosh I love you guys!

Space is big. Even just the low Earth orbit part is big. But this bit is finite. So yes, this could become a problem. But I think we have time to develop various solutions.

That’s a terrifying video. I lived through the 70s it was awful and lonely. I’m mostly bedbound nowadays and like other people with disabilities, I need Technology and the Internet to keep me alive.. Currently I’m suffering from the MRSA bug which they’re trying to get rid of stuff that I can have my ileostomy. I’m also due to have an MRI To track an abscess that may or may not have anything to do with the above.

Jennie Sapherson

Awww. I hope the guys and gals of Epic Mountain will feel better soon. (Also I clearly listen too much to the Kurzgesagt OST, so I noticed the recycling within 3 seconds and was immediately able to tell what track was used^^')

Too bad, too sad, I'm turning mad

I live for new videos it is always a good day whenthere is a new video.
