I appreciate that you cover more than just SpaceX. The consistent reporting about efforts in the rest of the world is refreshing and informative.
Thanks so much! It means a lot to me.
Man, it is so cool to see a person with an interest in a subject pursue it with such passion. It’s a bonus that you share your work with us. Keep up the awesome work!
Incredible coverage, the future is exciting!
For the rich's....
The future has already happened....you , we , I, are at least a 100 years behind...its a master piece...
Year 2050 - “A new, nuclear powered plan to put humans on Mars from NASA and Lockheed Martin”
Maybe. But virtually every component necessary to build this ship will exist before 2030. Orion already exists. Nuclear thermal will be tested in orbit in 2027. The inflatable habitat is already wrapping up pressure tests. Very little of this is CGI bullshit.
Another great interview!
This vid represents a milestone.
Jordan, you knocked this one out of the park, outstanding work. Even with the audio problem this was long-awaited content. 10 kW is a great number, and you got some Isp estimates too. And now we know where the nuclear navy's nukes fit into the big picture.
Nice job Jordan! Good interview.
Nuclear is the only way forward. Makes me genuinely happy seeing big players taking it seriously with serious plans. Great reporting Angry.
THIS is what Jordan is good at - getting important people in the industry to talk. This was amazing. And it's also clear that this is what he really likes to do. Wish there was a lot more of this. Great job!
Lets not forget he had to travel from the U.K to Colorado as well. Great job and great support from all. Thank you.
I remember my father working the NERVA program back in the late 60s out at Jackass flats in Nevada. They fired the engine, it worked, and it promptly was shelved. It is good to see this coming back, since it clearly is the next frontier with propulsion, along with more advanced ion drives. Of course, I will say the word that scares so many: "SpaceX" in the same breath as well... It would be interesting to see a nuclear Starship ;>)
Excellent interview!!!
Great interview!
All credit to Jordan for practising traditional journalism by interviewing key players in the space industry, rather than relying on second-hand information as the majority of his colleagues tend to do.
A mars shot competition is always good. Let’s hope it all comes through.
Great interview Jordan!!! It is so cool to see you living your dream and sharing your passion!
That was another excellent vid and I let the ad run fully to help you keep this great content coming. Cheers.
Wow! What a great interview! It gets me so excited about the future! And also angry lol
Best short interview you’ve done so far. Great job.
Outstanding work as always, Jordan. Thank you for the excellent coverage.
Thanks so much for watching!!
Can’t wait to see this in the near future
Best interview Ive heard! great show!
Amazing interviewing
Very good interview, thank you Jordan
This this the kind of stuff I love out of this channel. Nobody does it better!
Good sales pitch. Can they walk the walk ?
Mars base camp looks like how I imagined we'd go to the red planet.
Great content, and let's all hope what was mentioned for the future of space exploration comes to fruition. Damn, let's go!
Don't ask him about ufos and reverse in "we don't want to put him in danger."
At last someone with an eye on the real tech 👌🏻
I’m not even sure LM is involved with the off world craft (assuming they exist; and if Gary McKinnon is telling the truth it would seem they do. And the fact that the government was dumb enough to go after him says he is telling the truth; they wouldn’t have prosecuted him if he didn’t have something). I wouldn’t be surprised if the companies involved were kept secret or made to appear so small as to be inconsequential. But that’s just a guess. LM is a little too public.
Well done on the great interviews. It's definitely one of your best!
That little vignette describing HALEU was informative.
Amazing interview Jordan...Well done..... Will add more in a later comment....Pete from Tasmania..the apple Isle🍎🍏...here in Australia
SKUNK Works. 🚀
Yeah coz the lies STINK !!!
OOOOOOHHHHHHHH! Stinkay! 😁
Excellent coverge Jordan. Keep up the great work. Thanks!
Thanks so much for your generous support!
Great work once again!!!
Fantastic video & interview Jordan :)
Thanks for all the great coverage!! The way of the future!
Great interview!
Excellent interview. Extremely positive.
It's great that you get to go out and attend these events, it's very informative. I don't see SpaceX Starship as a great Mars vechile, the need for multiple Starship launches to refuel one Starship to leave LEO, nuclear seems a much better solution, get there faster with less fuel. Starship will be great has a reusable heavy lift vechile, as the space version of a maritime "lighter", transfering cargo to deep space nuclear spaceships. Thanks again for this great content! 🙂
Fantastic interview Jordan 👋
Wow, what a great video. Thanks very much!
I just went up to the old test facility at Lockheed Martin, Waterton Colorado ... man, WHAT HISTORY!!! Also search for "16mm Titan 2 engine test footage" on CZcams ... what's crazy is that yellow cloud of raw hydrazine (yikes) and the deluge system - right there at the base of the Rocky Mountains.
great stuff, thx🚀
You are killing these, my guy! 👏🏿
Nice
Thanks!
Thanks so much for your generous support!
This was awesome!!
At first I thought he was standing beside a Dalek.
That would've been way cooler than an RL10 engine! Lol
Great Video!
A great report. Thanks! I've always been a fan of SpaceX's ideas about reusability - a big game-changer - and also sheer SIZE and VOLUME and LIFT, all major considerations for much time to come. But nuclear: here we've got something just as big and significant for the future, and it's great to hear that a working nuclear space vehicle is not so very far away. I find L-M's vision very strong just as I do SpaceX's, and I can't see why there wouldn't be plenty for each to do. I think we'll look back at the 2020s as the springboard days of space, like the early 1900s for cars. The 2030s promise to be cars after Henry Ford. Anyone want to go out on a Sunday drive?
Angry, a very informative interview with LM. We are Going To Mars!
Really good point - there is no need to go down into gravity wells if you can have your stations grow in space just as good.
Methane from Mars atmosphere - cool. Eventually ice somewhere - even better. But then there's plenty of ice in the space as well. And the rest is just rocks.
Can't tell for sure how the future will unfold for the space traveling species. But there certainly will be robots, some form of nuclear and Moon is where we can learn all of the rest "on budget".
Nuclear is the perfect solution for Space Power systems and propulsion. High energy density and no reliance on unobstructed sunshine. People who wring their hands about "radiation" have nothing to say, since Outer Space is BATHED in radiation. A nuclear reactor is the LEAST worrisome source of radiation in space.
So important to communicate with our Educators of which Jordan remains by *FAR AND AWAY* one of the best. Clearly this past always incredibly rarified World of "Space Launch" has entered into a new and astoundingly dynamic "launch cadence" which is no small matter to handle that (thanks US Air Force!) so interesting and remarkable to imagine all of the moving parts involved in all of this certainly far larger than the Saturn V or even Space Shuttle ever was now.
good one
Down down down, Up-up up-up up. Down down down, Up-up up-up up. Down down down, Up-up up-up up. Down down down, We're going to fly.
This is so cool
From a space exploration viewpoint at least I envy today's youth.
This is how I envisioned the future way back in the Apollo days, when I was a nipper.
This time it looks like it might just happen.
This is a great video
It would be good if Lockheed Martin could leverage their long term pedigree to make nuclear technology in space their niche.
Everyone!!! Thats important word #3!!! He said there's room for everyone!!! This isn't a competition, there is room for everyone. 36 countries signed on to some accord-or-something, 🤔😁
Everyone can contribute to our planet's expansion accrost the universe. And the requirements for participation have elasticity. ❤
To some up the Thee E words... Expansion is propulsion, (getting us there), Elasticity is habitation, (a livable environment), and Everyone is all peoples, (let's do this together!)
Nice 🎉
Lets gooooooo. Im sure our space brothers will permit us back on the moon and even mars this time. I think we've waited long enough.
I guess Lockheed would use SpaceX Starliner to get its nuke kit into space, as I can't see NASA paying $2billion per launch pop going forward beyond Artemis 3
Their has been an idea that Mars may have much more water underground. Partly due to a lack of Mars quakes exposing water.
There was something called the "flying crowbar" that some research was done on, maybe they could restart that project.
Lockheed Martin may be slow and expensive, but they're still able to produce amazing technology.
That guy said DARPA didn't he?
hehehe.
Wheel's within Wheel's
The question I have about Inflatables is how do you furnish them?
Elasticity!!! Inflatable habitats! Wow! I'm learning a lot here!
First important word was Expansion, now important word is Elasticity. I wonder if there will be a 3rd important word in this vid?🤔
Nice to see some competition! They had better hurry up though! Would be nice to work with LHM as a team. Rather than jumping out of the bed and landing on that Lego block.
Expansion! I just GOT it. As a fule changes state from solid or liquid to gas, it expands! The amount it expands creates a thrust! Wow. Okay, I must sound like an elementary school student. 😊
It doesn't even have to burn! It's the EXPANSION that creates the thrust.
I love the Gemini and Apollo Applications approach to expanding into the solar system. Take already developed systems and add new technology to it and build larger systems for expansion of operations further out. When you combine a proven Orion capsule with huge inflatable modules, and nuclear power and propulsion systems, and closed loop environmental control systems proved on ISS and the Gateway, you can do things greater than the sum of the individual parts.
And if Starship is ever perfected, its tremendous payload capacity to LEO and the Lunar surface will be essential to getting more technology up there to work with.
SpaceX has done NOTHING to develop the technology to build the colonies. They haven't done anything to develop nuclear propulsion. They haven't addressed the shielding issues.
All these things need to be developed by other companies. So it isn't "either / or". There is plenty to do for all the space companies, new and old.
Such an amazing content and such a noisy audio😣PLEASE do something about the background noise when recording events. If not the hardware, then at least remove the noise in post-processing🙂There are plenty of AI tools for podcasts that do exactly that.
Skunk works
I about spit out my coffee when he said that Lockheed was using their own money to pitch in towards the development of the nuclear rocket. 😂😂
Your timescale will bring us colony status in 100 years if ever.
Hopefully they can keep the doors from blowing off like current aviation fleet
You forgot the most important question: when will they be available? Everspacher has been promising their version for nearly a year and it’s still not available.
Hopefully Mars will be able to get a modular Generation 4 reactor with increased safety, lower costs, less waste and a variety of fuels including waste.
Add time stamps please!
10:00 Ironic image in background of thing speaker is describing. (i guess)
Project Orion?
Is there any significant question about inflatables?
Lockheed Martin !! ask them about the TR3B Black triangle
Fabulous interview. One SLS launch per year? A 21 day mission is all we get out keeping the enormous contractor army around year after year? After a few Starship HLS trips from LEO to HALO without Astronauts simply to give SLS and Orion a reason to exist ... taxpayers HAVE to question why we are wasting tax dollars . Deano
Well, I think this was an exceptional report. As to Lockheed Martin, what he perpetuated here was more of the same. Fund our space program using tax dollars paid to a vast array of unnecessary companies using employees politicians don't want to lose. He also took a shot at SX by saying that we didn't need those huge, massive metal containers when they could use inflatables instead. He may not be aware that SX will soon have the worlds first private manned space station, Vast Haven - 1, followed by a larger model in relatively quick order. Musk has also stated interest in landing one of those massive metal containers for use as a moon base and NASA has expressed some interest in it as well. I wish there was more urgency in developing those "nuclear" engines because I think we need those as soon as possible. I believe SX will accomplish that by 2031-33.
The Artemis looks cramped for 4 people.
-225 degrees Fahrenheit
Is the NTR reusable, can it be fired more than once? If so, then how is the decay heat managed after shutdown? Are they just so refractory that they can't melt, or is additional propellant used to cool the engine, which would lower the Isp?
Building a huge mars/moon base is easy
Just send 2 starships
w 1,000 square connecting inflatables
some bulldozers to cover them regolith.
fill them up w everything:
Hundreds for growing food
Hundreds for processing water ice
Shady Bars, homes, water pools, theaters, science, industry
Now where is The Calm Cosmonaut?😅😂
Next the Tetchy Taikanaut.
Great interview. I didn't know that there was a competitive race to get to Mars, I did notice that not once when asked about spacex or elon musk would he say his competitors name just like Jeff bezos the hatred and the insane jealousy towards spacex and elon musk is quite evident
And then there’s always the fact that WE’RE ALREADY ON MARS, Saturn, Jupiter, Ceres, Ganymede, the Moon, etc. But don’t confuse the sheeple with the facts. It was, has been, and continues to be a 2-track system, reaching all the way back into the early 50s. One “user-friendly”, evening news-level program, fit for general consumption. This show belongs in that group. And then overlaid directly atop mostly these same companies, (plus some others) is the FUN STUFF, the cutting edge stuff that the lower-level stuff is there to provide cover for. Sure its hard to provide prima facie evidence fo’r this higher level stuff; these folks aren’t idiots. The lynchpin with all the Deep Black projects is this; they all Must Include Some Element of Deniability, an Actually False non-existent aspect of some part of whatever tech or what-have-you in the project that, when pointed out by some sharp researcher or journalist can be “off””
Did Lockheed Martin have to license the name "Jetson" from Hanna-Barbera?
With all the other nuclear propulsion ideas in the works, is there really a point to nuclear thermal Propulsion?
Solar doesnt work in the shade? Put up moon windmills
I’d like to volunteer to go to Mars as there’s not a whole lot on earth going for me at the moment, but I’m afraid I’m aging out much too quickly…😒
I still think they could use phobos and deimos as bases. 🤔
Kinda disappointed they're using U-235, but I guess it's a good use of nukes that have reached the expiration date. That's my guess.
What's the alternative to U-235?
@@shanent5793 I'm not a nuclear physicist, but I think Thorium can't work for weapons, but is still fissile and generates heat, but requires new engineering to make it work and there's not an infrastructure built around it. i'm not sure how hot Thorium gets, so not sure if it would work for nuclear propulsion, whereas U-235 definitely becomes hot... dangerously hot or "critical" (dangerous neutron chain reaction: aka "atomic bomb")... pretty much anything useful can be used for nefarious purposes :-(
Any body got a program for an Earth/Moon to Mars shuttle. The space notions in The Martian
Lockheed mad the Aura 3 b I have seen it and that could travel to Mars in weeks if not Days.
It goes that fast it disappeared
If the fuel is not ignited can it be recovered?
And won't the particulates of all that uranium pose a threat to future missions?
Will it leave a visible dust trail that poses a threat to long exposure space pictures?
I got so many questions about this fuel and can't find anything about it.
Great questions. I will take a stab. NSFL : Not Safe For Launch. They mentioned it will be used only "far away from Earth" which I take as no closer than very high Earth orbit but typically deep space missions.
The space environment presents high levels of radiation. It has long been assumed that nuclear "exhaust" will have next to zero impact on this environment. That assumption might be due for a test.
@@BobDeWitt-pl9qp That makes sense, thanks for the input!
