The Cost of Human Ambition in Starfield
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 06. 2024
- Are we truly ready for the ethical challenges of space colonization? In this Starfield exploration, we dive into the consequences of human ambition, examining the moral implications of expanding into new worlds. Can humanity overcome its history of exploitation and destruction, or are we doomed to repeat our past mistakes on a cosmic scale? Join me, the Beast of the Corn, as we dissect the price of expansion and uncover the true cost of human ambition.

A video essay on the morality explored in Starfield? Interesting
Thank you! I'm glad you found it interesting, anything in starfield you would want to see in a future video explore?
@@beastofcornwood if video-form essays are the medium, then perhaps a exploration of the different perspectives that the game offers in regards to the reasons to pass through the Unity (The Hunter and his Individual desires and freedom aligning somewhat with survival of the fittest for example)
after visiting the unity, I actually pictured the starborn as a star shaped as a humanoid. because the starborn is made of star dust. It only makes sense to me that a starborn wouldn't have to breathe like humans do because they create their own atmosphere like stars do.
We already possess the technology to take humanity to mars. It’s being tested now, by the very companies you mentioned.
There are brilliant ideas using spacecraft with shielding made with an outer layer of water. Nothing will stop completely the sun and its gamma ray radiation. (Lead would, yes. But that would be too heavy to make) But a thick enough layer of water between the inner pressurized living area and the vacuum of space, will slow down the process significantly.
Is it ethical? My first thought would be, yes. Essentially, the very atoms and molecules that make up your body, were once forged deep within a star, that is now long dead. What is humanity, if not the cosmos exploring and witnessing itself? One day, everything that lived and died on this planet will be destroyed by our own sun. Turned back to our component parts. The cycle repeats.
By the time humanity is reaching outside of our own solar system, if we ever do, the technology will most likely solve most if not all those problems. Scientists were recently able to revive organ cells from a cryogenic freeze, without them being destroyed by ice. This bodes well for a cryogenic sleep or suspended animation technology.
JPL and NASA have been toying with revolutionary ideas regarding propulsion. For instance, if they stuff they are researching now pans out, it will cut the eight month trip from Earth to mars to just under six, if memory serves me correctly. We’ve already tested what kinds of physical deficiencies one would expect living in space for a year. Just a few years ago, Mark Kelly finished a one year trip aboard the ISS. If we could cut the trip from eight to six or even five, this would drastically reduce the physical impact on our astronauts during the mission.
Lots of exciting things going on right now. If everything goes smoothly, I will see a human set foot on mars. Echoing my father watching Neil and Buzz step off the LEM onto the lunar surface.
Not only can we do it, we absolutely should. Having a growing colony of humans on another planet would cut our chances of extinction in half. We are definitely not doing our planet any favors. There are active steps we should take to prevent anything happening. But, earth is also resilient. As long as we don’t cross some threshold, she should be able to heal in time.
Just my two cents worth.
I will say that was a lengthy read but I'm glad you spent the time typing it as I found it very interesting to read, especially when considering atoms.
I'm also glad I got you thinking from the video, that's the entire point of my videos is to spark curiosity and bring forward questions
@@beastofcornwood Kind of a nut for this kind of stuff. For instance, I read the entire Columbia disaster report, in one sitting. Hell, I would gladly wash toilets at SpaceX, just for the chance to be around those people and what they do. Never was smart enough in the math department to ever consider a field even tangentially related. But, like I said, I’m a nut for anything space or aerospace related.
Starfield had a rough start, but I really like the game. I found your video just browsing CZcams. Right up my alley.
Good video. Good content and concept.
Keep it up!
Thank you that means a lot! I usually do Fallout stuff or I am now but I'm also going to do starfield and elder scrolls if I find the topic interesting enough which I thought this one was pretty interesting to explore the parallels to our world.
Basically the grav drive is similar to the warp engine from Star Trek in the concept of traveling from system to system.
Is it? Huge Star wars fan but never could get into star trek
@@beastofcornwood in starfield the engines are used to travel inside the system itself and in Star Trek the Impulse engines do that function. the warp engine is used to jump from system to system and the grav drive do that function in starfield.
Ohh okay yeah I never knew that lol. Thanks for checking out the video any lore or mysterious topics you would like to see explored in the future in fallout or starfield?
@@beastofcornwood I would like to know the answer to who made the temples, the starborn origin I mean how that even started. I wanna visit the homeworld of house va'ruun, we don't know where is it. seem members of house va'ruun have a russian accent make me think they are the descendants of Russia on earth. xd I don't think we gonna see a fallout 5 anytime soon because everyone expecting to see the elder scrolls 6. the UC seem to be decendants of europe n others. and the freestar collective seem to be decendants of USA.
also in unity when you ask your other self who made the artifacts and the temples, you get a very vague answer.
Yeah BUT! in starfield humanity were forced but no without an escape option namely the grav drive. In our reality we don't have anything that can help us travel space like the grav drive in the game.
Yeah, maybe someday we will unlock the potential to travel at speeds depicted during a "Grav jump"
@@beastofcornwood not if will we blow up our planet before getting to it. lol But yeah we can hope so.
🤣 that's a very real possibility, sorry for the laugh face just caught me off guard with that one lol but my honest fear would be the tech is developed but is safeguarded by the wealthy and elite for there benifit while the rest of us have no choice but what we have always known.
I watched all things Star Trek except the cartoonish shows. xD
