"I didn't sign up for this"... Literally exactly what you would have signed up for.
300 years lost seems hardly enough to wipe out all history. We're used to pass culture and event verbally since eons. Should've take a greater length period like 1000 or 2000 thousands years.
Even after a thousand years, there would still be myths of humans going to space
Inaccuracies, YES. But I still like this and I'm hoping for more...
Mach number is not a speed measure that is usable in a technical sense, especially when going in space. Scientists would use m/s, and military pilots would use knots.
And you do not retroburn on ascent, you do it to slow down to reenter the atmosphere.
@@kdrapertruckerYeah ... there was quite a bit of nonsense. And why would one not do the journey under computer control? They already were in the information age according to the story. Also, calling it "return" before the story-in-the-story at the end is ...
Correct. The Mach number describes an aircraft's speed compared with the speed of sound in air, with Mach 1 equating to the speed of sound. The speed of sound decreases with altitude for the most part, so once you get to space and there is no air a Mach number is pretty much meaningless. A better description of speed would be miles (or kilometers) per hour.
ChatGPT stories are like that.
Still, considering the pilot was obviously originally a fighter pilot, makes sense that, scientific or not they'd use Mach for a better sense of the speed.
It's the Jupiter 2? Danger, Will Robinson, danger!
PLEXIGLASS windscreen on a orbital craft that has a heat shield......I don't think so.
300 hundred years seems hardly sufficient. 3,000 years perhaps.
600 years at most if the world regressed to the medieval. 3,000 would throw us back to the middle of the iron age.
@@tremedar the alien onslaught was merciless. Modern humans can barely function when there's a blackout or when supermarket shelves are empty.
@@OptimusWombat You mean people of the west. In other part of the word they can still function normally.
@@AndrooUK Agree. Also its done mostly purposefully by them yes, but often by third parties.
A nice, concise, meaningful, story. What those on Earth thought was a ship warping out, was actually a ship coming back in time to try and let the existing people on Earth know what awaits them.
Or does it await them? Can they change what occurred to Earth and the colonies? Might a first strike or better defenses change the outcome?
Maybe if all the politicians were to be rounded up and put in quarantine Earth would better prepare for their future.
It didn't go back in time.
All of what the cyborg said had already happened. Humanity rebooted back to the medieval stage and the spaceship waited for humanity to become developed enough to reenter space.
It is a part two of another story. I can’t remember the name right now, but the ship destroyed all aliens entering sol except one freighter that was damage and accidentally entered. It then gave a warning that humanity would return to the stars and burn them in vengeance.
interesting story and i would like to hear more
Great story as ever, empowered by the new voice of CZcams. 😁👍
Voice of CZcams? I assume you mean the AI voice. I've been hearing it for years over documentaries. How is it new and the voice of CZcams. I ask this earnestly.
Short, but powerful, and moving.🛸🚀
I would love to see more
To whoever is doing the narrating, great job with the voices. My new favorite audiobook channel
Arty Phsical is the narrator.
It's not a person. It's an AI.
Interesting.
The story has holes in it you could drive a spaceship through.
Story so far good, but as an engineer i gotta protest those numbers . I tried to restrain myself but few quick critique points (Also im sorry but i couldnt ignore the numbers):
A, if they consumed 30% of fuel just to get to the goal they wouldnt have enough fuel to return, due to lack of gravity pull the braking energy would have to be equal to the initial energy so its 60% fuel gone and you have to accelerate and break again, leaving you with 20% deficit of fuel + aditional fuel to descend at acceptable velocity.
B, if they used thrusters to spin the ship, it wouldnt fly straight anymore, instead it would curve like boomerang, due to centrifugal force changing its trajectory
C, 100 m/s is not cawl speed it 360 km/h or aproximately 224 MPH
D, Plexiglass is not used for space travel as it could both melt or shatter from cold, usually heat treated and hardened glass is preferred with aditives including heavy metals like lead, to prevent glass turning black as the effect of space radiation that interacts with Si in the glass.
If Science fiction was written by Ayn Rand.
... or ChatGPT
that is an insult to Ann Rand, and I can't even read her dreck
Jupiter two ....danger will robinson
OP is a KSP nerd : )
oh come on...
all that tech and only 1080p streaming from space?
the entire story premise is flawed. There is such a thing as collective knowledge. Even if all computers, all data and all written information got lost, you still have people who remember and who would teach their children. And even if there weren't any "teachers" left, the remaining people would remember the calamity and would teach about it to their children, so it would be remembered. So 300 years isn't even close to the time needed to completely forget everything. It would probably take thousands of years or more for that to happen. Basically it would need to become the stuff of legends, so that no-one actually believes it to be reality. Something akin to Atlantis.
Nope, because we see that even in the modern day where history is begin falsified on daily basis and this who cal it wrong are called... conspiracy theorists;).
I'm sorry but I cant say I liked this short story...
Well, each to their own I suppose.
we lost 300 years of history? sorry that makes no sense.
and the mass murder of the entire galaxy cause we lost some colonys? talk about turning our race into the galactic assh*les
Well, you get what you pay for! 🤪
I payed for this with loss of brain cells@@HawkGTboy
And then the government will now be at war again for that hard drive.
story took inspirations from eve online
Surprisingly dark, and despite the Corsairs, the politicians that wanted accountability were right after all. An attack by an alien species resulting in a tantrum and causing a galaxy to go void of live...
Looking at the current governments then no, you are wrong.
Not to be that guy but OP used retro-burn to describe booth acceleration and deceleration... nit pick but the difference is very important
for the story......
I hate that shit. Every fucking scifi story out there when something weird happens. "I didn't sign up for this shit!" It's exactly what they signed up for.
300 years is not long enough.
3000 would have done the job, but even then there would have been myths about the whole disaster.
Eve Online?
Sounded really similiar to capsuleer technology
Same thought
Ripping off Lost in space is not cool.No!
the story is confused, and just plain silly
An 11 g burn to orbit ??? 8 g burns in orbit??? what???
who ever wrote this is doing techno babble , and doing it badly
Meh. Needs tidying up a tad.
Numerous mistakes in this story, however. It tries to answer or give a what if to a question that has been floating around for some time. Much of the past, or history does not add up as written and taught. Evidence of nuclear detonations 1000+ years ago. Certain tech lost and only recently rediscovered. Time lines not adding up. Interesting concept.
Romantic notion, makes for good fiction. But none of the above is *actually* in question, so fiction it remains.
It's AI generated with bots writing most of the reviews. The narrator is also AI.
300 years no way 3,000 or 300,000 years more likely. 😂😂😂
@@jordanschaefer4643no it was on Reddit as a part 2 to another author’s story where a single AI ship defended sol and killed all Xenos entering giving a final warning indicating that it was defending the remnants of humanity.
Interesting angle. A
300 years to go through every planet in the galaxy...yea right
The science in this is SO wrong it's hilarious
ChatGPT can only do so much. The whole channel is AI generated with a bunch of bots praising the work. Clever. I want to see more.
Can you prove this undisputedly?@@jordanschaefer4643
