    “How much more dark can space be? None. None more dark.”-Spinal Tap joke. But seriously, one of the Apollo capsule astronauts told of traveling the dark side of the Moon. No sun. Moon shadow. Looking out the portal, lights down in capsule, into space. What he said was that it was like a white mist. So many stars so close. A level or two of darkness, night sky, than we’d ever see on Earth.

    You can often reconstruct a galaxy that is being gravitationally lenzed, and I've done it many times.
    Often the galaxies are smeared by roughly circular sources of gravity.
    You can just hold up a mirrored cylinder along the galaxy you chose to "reconstruct" and look at the reflection in the cylinder. A glass with straight sides can work ok.
    It may not be perfect but you can definitely get close to seeing the galaxies "unsmeared".

    I have a question that has stuck with me since it came up. The Cassini-Huygens probe used the same celestial body for multiple gravity assist maneuvers.
    Assuming you have as much time as needed, could you increase the velocity of a probe further and further by doing gravity assists over and over again or is there a limit in velocity a probe can get by such maneuvers?

    • @Mr.Anders0n_
      @Mr.Anders0n_ Před 7 měsíci +4

      At first, I thought the answer would be straight forward, but when I looked at the probe's trajectory, I realized it's quite complicated. It's orbital mechanics after all and I'm no Scott Manly 😅
      I still thought about it really hard and here's my take. First, if you want to keep bouncing off a planet, you need to keep aligning your trajectory to be where the planet will be around the sun, and I don't know if both the gravity assist trajectory and the planet's orbit can KEEP aligning together with every bounce.
      Even if we solve this problem, my hunch tells me that as your speed increases, the amount of fuel you need to burn to maneuver into the gravity assist trajectory keeps increasing. Remember, gravity assists aren't completely free. You still need to expend some energy for it to work. At some point, you'd reach the Milky Way escape velocity (think Oumuamua), so turning back for another bounce would be very expensive.
      So, I think there's a sweet spot for how many times you can bounce off as the amount of energy needed for trajectory adjustments increases and as the time needed to complete each orbit also increases (because the orbit around the planet would keep getting bigger)
      Finally, if it were possible, I'm sure the smart guys at NASA would've done it to make missions like New Horizons travel much faster.

    • @ahaveland
      @ahaveland Před 7 měsíci

      @@Mr.Anders0n_ There comes a point where it would be going too fast to ever reach the planet you want it to bounce off with the fuel you have, then you have to choose another until you run out of planets by which time it's leaving the system. So yes, there is a limit to the velocity you could attain.
      I don't think Oumuamua's velocity is greater than the Milky Way's escape velocity - it's greater than our Sun's but there are far far bigger stars with higher gravities.
      It'll most likely stay within our galaxy, unless it finds a really improbable sequence of gravity assists instead of gravity brakes.

      There are the obvious downsides that a) everything in the universe moves, which introduces the problem of "What has happened in the gap between my measurements?", and b) not everything we observe last long enough to be observed from both extremes; having two satellites on opposite sides of the Sun at all times would let us take a snapshot of whatever we're looking at at the exact same time.
      The longer the single-satellite's orbit is, the higher the risk of c) the satellite having a major malfunction between the extremes, making its obsvervations less-than-optimal (or worse); increasing the number of satellites will of course increase the risk that one will malfunction, but conversely decrease the risk of the whole programme's failure.

    RE: Mining Psyche: We could actually do it on the cheap, it would just take a long time, and require building a bit of infrastructure on Psyche.
    Direct transfer is on the order of 4kps; if you use a Jupiter gravity assist, you get down to 2kps. That is between half and a quarter of the delta V to reach LEO, so, for near earth industrial uses, it probably makes more sense to mine Psyche than to lift from earth, purely on a delta v budget basis.
    Required infrastructure: Psyche: Mining and forging; light sail, solar panel, thermal nozzle, and mirror manufacturing; return package railgun (needs about 3kps for non optimal returns); LEO/Luna: A lot of solar panels and lasers to provide breaking energy to actually capture the packages (you can use waste material for reaction mass but you likely want to go with the less efficient light sail for a good chunk of the delta v, reserving the thermal nozzle configuration for capture where a high thrust maneuver is required)

    Re. gravitational lensing, I think in due course we will be able to accurately reconstruct images. As the distant object gradually transits the foreground object the distortions created by the foreground object will change.
    As the object nears a dense region (such as the center of a galaxy) the distortions will be greater. Measuring the rate of change will allow a more accurate estimation of the mass of the foreground galaxy and each region within it. Each computational pass can feed back the better estimations into the next analysis of the transit.
    Error checking can also be undertaken by studying structures within the far object's image. If the map of the foreground object is accurate enough, and the correctional analysis is also accurate enough, then the image of the far object (and portions of it) should remain consistent during the entirety of the transit.
    If it distorts at certain points then there is an error somewhere. Once it no longer does, then you can be confident that you are seeing the far object as it truly was.

Since we have a good idea of what a typical supernova is like in terms of mass this would fit well with your second example of knowing what is lensed and subsequently reconstructing the lensing environment itself. Which as I understand is what happened when they were able to predict another lensed image of the supernova that arrived after a year long delay.
    Yes, SN Refsdal is thought to be a type II so the possible mass interval is somewhat broader, but suppose it was a type Ia and suddenly you have a very exact value of one side of the lensing equation.

    Hi Fraser, you regulary say if you have a question, write it in the comments. So here is my theory and a somewhat combination questions, maybe for a QA show.
    The theory of timedelation, the theory of the Big Bang, the way to measure distance.
    And the maximum speed of something or somewhat can travel in the universe, and the speed of light (the maximum speed of our observations)
    Due to the gravity of objects, and (in my oppinion) also the speed at which the clock&observer travel through universe, the measurement of time differs. If we measure time with the most accurate tools we have now, atomic clokcs. Due to that the electro magnetic waves, (which make up the bouncing, and the counting of bouncing we use to measure the passing of time), have a longer distance to travel to keep up with the atoms in the clock, in motion. Versus an atomic clock which does not move. In my opinion, this means if the clock&observer travel at the speed of light, the measurement of time, (the counting of the electro magnetic waves bouncing), will approach or become zero, null. Same for an clock&observer at the center of an infinite mass, time measurement (for human observation) will become zero.
    Now for argument sake, i only measure full seconds.
    The Big bang, when our universe expanded from a 'nothing', from an infinite mass with an infinte small size, to where it is today.
    Travelled distance= speed * time. So im at the beginning of the big bang, measuring time, the big bang happens and i travel along the edge of the expanding universe outwards from center, during 1 second (at the maximum speed we, now think ,is possible, approx 300000 km/second.) After 1 second i am 300000 km away from center, and the universe has a diameter of 600000 km. But, this is only valid for the time and speed of light we measure today on earth. Me standing at the edge of expanding universe, and traveling at 300000 km/sec, thus my measurement of time is null, or close to zero/null.
    travelled distance (300000 km, according to today earth seconds) = Speed * time (close to zero or null)
    300000 = Speed * 0.0etc0infinite row of zeros 01 >> Speed must be higher then 300000 km/sec, for the observer travelling at the edge of the universe expanding, IF we take our today earth second as basis.
    So there is difference between the 'second', the time measurement today at earth. And the second which was measured in the beginning of the Big bang and expansion start of our universe. In theory , if the universe is still expanding at the speed of light at it's edge, the passing of the first second, for the clock&observer standing at the edge of expanding universe, has not finished yet, and that combined with what we assume is the max speed of things 300000 km/sec, that would mean for the clock&observer at the edge of universe in his observation he is travelling faster then the speed of light. In our observation of the clock&observer at the edge of universe expansion, the universe has been expanding 14 billion years. (and i say for argument sake, at the speed of light) In the observation of the clock&observer traveling at the edge of expanding universe, not even 1 second passed in time, while the distance traveled is the radius of our universe today.
    For argument sake, lets say, the universe just now stopped expanding at the edge, and clock&observer just measured their first second. Their speed then was, 14 billion year * speed of light = 1.324512e+23 kilometer/second. According to the measurement of time for the clock&observer at the edge of universe, the speed of travel is 1.324512e+23 kilometer/second.
    Now my theory/question 1:
    Is the measurement of time subjective, depending on place/speed in universe? And if so, that means our measurement of speed of light, is also subjective. And therefore not a constant, but depending on the location and/or travel speed of the observer in the universe.
    Theory/question 2:
    When we made up the theory of the Big Bang, did they also take into account, timedelation? Because we interpolated back to the beginning of our universe, in the Big Bang theory. Or is it all interpolated on the second we measure on earth today?
    Extra comment/theory:
    Time is made up by humans. Theoretically for the clock&observer travelling at the speed of light, at the edge of the expanding universe. Time does not exist, no measurement/detection of passing of time has ever occured there.
    Well, this hopefully gives you some food for thoughts, and maybe a Q&A question idea for one day.

    Risa : This makes me think next time NIACC comes around I should attempt to write a proposal for a space mission to setup Cosmic Internet. Due to the fact that I am nobody and barely even know how to go about such a grant odds are super low but its the type of thing I believe we need. It could consist of something as basic as a grid of Cube sats, capable of probably Laser based communication, which could transmit and receive data so space craft data can leap frog across these things as well as diverge and combine streams. Doing so could allow us to start getting much larger data rates. Think what a Small Hubble type telescope pointing at Europa and transmitting live feed could teach us in the age where the internet would be mesmerized by it.
    Its the type of system that could be a boot strap with more and more missions slowly adding greater and greater coverage and connectivity over time. I feel we are long past the need for such a thing yet space missions tend to focus on a specific target as opposed to setting up an infrastructure we will need before we can do anything meaningful in space. I also believe it could be started rather cheep. Hell, maybe down the line end of mission goals can be to simply place the craft somewhere in stable solar orbit to act as a more powerful hub or something. IDK, we need space infrastructure and we need it yesterday.

    If anti-matter fell up, it might have indicated that it was regular matter that was traveling backwards in time.
    If you hit an electron with an energetic enough photon you can redirect it in space, so the thought was, why not in time? A positron behaves almost exactly like a time reversed electron.
    One of the things this could have explained is the lack of anti-matter in our universe. It would make it possible for the missing anti-matter to exist, just traveling backwards in time so we would never encounter it.

    Very interesting as always! One correction:
    DNA is not made from amino acids! Proteins are made from amino acids, which are small molecules with between 13 and 24 atoms, which all have the same backbone but different side chains, so you can chain them together using the backbone.
    DNA is made of nucleotides, which are also small molecules, with about 35 atoms, and are also chained together, only 4 different nucleotides in DNA. DNA stores the information how proteins are pieced together from amino acids.
    And then there are still molecules made from sugar building blocks, which can also form long chains, and those made from fatty acids and glycerol, those we all have too much of.. so, life has some different kinds of lego bricks..

    Regarding the question about asteroid deflection, would the next-most-likely object we would need to deflect not be a comet rather than a rogue planet? I guess the problem here is that most comets that visit the inner solar system only do so over enormous timescales. Like the last people to witness it may have been building pyramids in the desert. So tracking the orbit of Earth-killing comets seems impractical, which means if one were on a collision course, we would probably only find out on its approach right? That would give us precious little time to respond, so most asteroid deflection strategies may be too slow? I'm curious as to whether people are contemplating what if anything could be done in such a scenario?

    28:16 I think it will be more along the lines of the first Starship lands and sets up the fuel plant and pumps H2 out of it's storage tanks to make fuel, and then the second one lands and sets up another fuel plant and pumps H2 to both pants so it takes half the time to refuel, then the third etc, and by the time there is enough capacity to immediately refuel a starship when it lands, there will already be a permanent base, extracting water etc from the soil, growing crops to feed themselves and the tourists/scientists coming on starship and then it will expand to extracting enough water to supply H2 to the fuel plants so that the starships don't need to bring it with them. The only parts of the bases that will be at ground level will be the greenhouses for the food to grow, the rest will be under ground to protect from radiation. The power needed won't be as huge as many assume because they'll use the same heating method used by Mark Watney. RTGs. RTGs will also power Stirling engines, which will be fine to use when there are people around to maintain them.

    Also, while amino acids are important building blocks for life, they are not the only building blocks that are necessary for life, in fact very early life might not have had any amino acids, as it is thought to have contained only RNA within a fatty membrane, with RNA taking the role of both DNA and proteins in later life.

    Vendikar - a safe space on Mars would be a few tens of kilometers below the surface where atmospheric pressure would be similar to Earth, then instead of worrying about cosmic radiation, meteorites, rapid catastrophic depressurization and losing an entire colony, all you would need to worry about deep underground is oxygen and energy for food and water.
    The habitat could be maintained using membranes instead of heavy pressure vessels. Sunlight and electricity could be piped down from the surface using fibre optics and cables.
    Alternatively, the near side of Phobos would offer protection against radiation and be easy enough to land on and leave even if it has no failsafe against depressurization.

      Weirdly to extend the life of a star it’s better to remove mass from it, rather than add more. Smaller stars don’t shine as bright but live much, much longer.
      Adding mass to an already dead star happens in a type 1a supernova, where a white dwarf in a binary system accretes matter from its partner until carbon fusion and oxygen fusion is triggered, but the run-away reaction destroys the star in a massive explosion.

    Q.
    What process during a Supernova can accelerate a Star, and eject it out a Galaxy.
    I read there was a kilonova, and it was 120,000 Light Yrs from the closest Galaxy. How did the Neutron Stars get there.

    Question: why do scientists expect to find dark matter particles around earth? Why would dark matter have effect on star orbits in the galaxy but zerro effect on planet orbits around sun?

    Data transfer rates…never even considered it was so slow, interesting

    Re: parallax measurements. Why wait a hundred years? I'm no expert, but it seems to me that we need only to send twin spacecraft in opposite directions, to station them on opposite sides of the Solar System. As far as the data transfer rates go, can't we solve that with larger parabolic dishes and more powerful transmitters? Newer launch vehicles such as the SpaceX Starship promise to largely negate space probe weight and size constraints.
