SPACE COLONIZATION

Future in Space Hangouts are sponsored by the American Astronautical Society: https://astronautical.org NASA has for decades been assessing options to utilize the resources available in space – often on the Moon and Mars – to sustain long-duration human operations. It will be prohibitively expensive to send from Earth to either location sufficient resources for astronauts to carry out priority mission goals, to say nothing of eventual settlement. With NASA’s human space flight program focusing on lunar operations and technologies to enable eventual human missions to Mars, in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) has become a high priority in NASA’s technology investment plans. Join Tony Darnell and Harley Thronson as they discuss the current status of ISRU with Jerry Sanders and Stephen Hoffman, both of NASA Johnson Space Center. Future in Space Hangouts are endorsed by the American Astronomical Society and the American Astronautical Society. Like this content?

Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ Our planet is so enormous that it can often appear flat to those living on it, as time went on and we determined it was a sphere, many still chose to assume it was a flat disc. While this notion is outdated, it is possible to construct an artificial planet as a discworld, and such worldbuilding shapes may have some advantages over a sphere. In this episode we will examine a number of Flat Earth models and some variations on the theme, and see what advantages and disadvantages they have, along with the challenges in constructing them.

It might take going to another planet for different nations to finally, once and for all, learn how to get along with each other. What will we eat on Mars? We can't live off of a diet of potatoes alone. There are huge problems to solve, but recent technologies like 3D printing might help things move a lot faster, and be a lot less dangerous. Leland is a featured big thinker on season 2 of Mars on the National Geographic Channel. You can find out more information about the show here: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/tv/mars/ Read more at BigThink.com: https://bigthink.com/technology-innovation/what-humanity-will-gain-by-going-to-mars Follow Big Think here: YouTube: http://goo.gl/CPTsV5 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BigThinkdotcom Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigthink So, for humans to live on Mars and not just make a lot of potatoes and live off the potatoes for a while it's just the habitat, the systems itself for a robust life support system that's going to keep you alive for this long period of time. I mean we go to the space station that's been up there since 2000 and its been working, but we have a day and a half trip to get something to the space station if something fails and we need a spare part. Mars is going to take six to eight months to get something there. So trying to build systems that are super redundant but also have ways to fix things like with 3-D printing. I mean that's another thing that we have on the space station but we haven't had to utilize it for making things that are critical that are in situ [ph] right there. And so I think that is one of the things a habitat that's bullet proof. The food aspects, you know, eating food that not only tastes good but it also has a nutritional value that you're going to get all the nutrients that you need to function and liver for this extended period of time. The Martian environment is very harsh with the thin atmosphere, 3/8ths G, solar radiation, all these things, building suits that can handle that when you're doing these excursions and going out and cleaning the solar panels and doing these things having robust systems that will keep you alive. And then just water and food. I think I heard it's going to take 24,000 pounds of food for I think a colony of four or five to live up there so do you pre-position? Do you fly those and pre-position that there and hope that a dust storm or something doesn't wipe it out and know that it's still there? And then a shelf life of five years, whereas the shelf life for the food on the space station is 18 months, so a five year shelf life and every time an item of food sits there for another month, another month, another month it loses nutritional value, it loses flavor, it loses texture. So making sure that we have something that people are going to want to eat and will eat to stay healthy in this environment.

A Journey to the Edge of Time and Space Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ As we continue our look at Generation Ships, vast vessels designed to carry many thousands of colonists to distant and alien worlds centuries away, we must ask just how far and how long such ships can be made to last? Can space ships be made that will endure even longer voyages of thousands or even millions of years in the void of interstellar or even intergalactic space? Will ships, and their crews, fall apart or turn into Cargo Cults who no longer remember how their technology functions or what their mission was?

A look at Neptune, a potential gateway to the stars... Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ The Icy Giants, Neptune and Uranus, are often overlooked for as candidates for colonizing our solar system. Even when noted, the focus tends to be on their larger moons like Triton. Today we will challenge that notion by looking at way we might place a colony on the planet itself, and how Orbital Rings and Chandelier Cities might let us colonize any gas giant. We will also look at how helium-3, a core ingredient of aneutronic fusion abundant on Neptune, might serve as the fuel of future starships, and the physics behind some other starship drives future science might give us access to, such as laser propulsion.

According to geek.com, the key to building a moon base could be right under astronaut's noses. Moon Dust might prove to be the future of building on the Earth's lunar companion. Building materials can get heavy, and complicate space travel. Which is why scientists are considering ways to utilize regolith (aka rocky lunar dust). The dust could be used to fashion the first long-term settlements on the moon. The European Space Agency is looking into “lunar masonry.” This process would 3-D print building blocks and stone walls using processed lunar soil. “The moon and Earth share a common geological history, and it is not difficult to find material similar to that found on the moon in the remnants of lava flows.” Aidan Cowley, ESA Science Adviser https://www.geek.com/news/moon-dust-may-be-key-to-building-a-moon-base-quickly-1750577/?source http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit Tech using http://wochit.com

FormForge|Austin Industries|WPM of Austin, Texas, is the third-place winner of Phase 3: Level 2 of NASA’s 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge. This phase of the competition has five sub-levels. For this level of the competition teams had to additively construct a foundation slab without human intervention. The slabs were evaluated and scored based on multiple criteria, including strength, durability and material composition. To test their strength, a standard Olympic shot put was dropped on each slab three times to simulate a meteor strike. For durability, each slab was subjected to freeze/thaw tests, enduring temperature extremes such as those it would face on the Moon or Mars. The teams earned prize money based on scores assigned by a panel of subject matter experts from NASA, academia and industry. NASA’s 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge aims to further the progression of sustainable shelters that will someday occupy the Moon, Mars or beyond by pushing citizen inventors to develop new technologies capable of additively manufacturing a habitat using indigenous resources with, or without, recyclable materials. The 3D-Printed Habitat Challenge is managed through a partnership with NASA’s Centennial Challenges Program and Bradley University. Bradley has partnered with sponsors Caterpillar, Bechtel and Brick & Mortar Ventures to administer the competition. NASA’s Centennial Challenges program is part of the agency’s Space Technology Mission Directorate, and is managed at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

A continued look at Generation Ships and Interstellar Colonization. Check out Cheddar's video on the Sun: https://chdr.tv/youtue6886 In order to colonize the galaxy, we are going to have to spend huge times on board equally huge spaceships. To move thousands of people, and our ecosystem, to distant planets, will require not only giant ark-like starships, but entire fleets of them. Today we will examine how we could do this even if physics never offers us any superior methods in the future for covering the void of interstellar space faster.

Physicist Michio Kaku discusses the main difficulties humans face in colonizing Mars and how to overcome them. Read more at BigThink.com: https://bigthink.com/videos/michio-kaku-living-on-mars-a-4-step-guide-for-humans Follow Big Think here: YouTube: http://goo.gl/CPTsV5 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BigThinkdotcom Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigthink Well, the question is, if we’re entering a new “golden age” of space exploration what is the main bottleneck that we face? The main bottleneck has to do with life support and the human. See, we’ve already sent robots to Mars. We’ve already sent objects the size of a bus to the planet Mars, but now we’re talking about humans, which require a whole support network, and so we have to realize that things that we don’t even consider at all with the robots become central and a bottleneck for humans. Humans will have to live in an environment where there’s radiation; where there’s loneliness; where the journey can take two years; where temperatures are below freezing; where the atmospheric pressure is only one percent the atmospheric pressure on the planet Earth, and eventually we want to create a base there. We’re not going to go there just to plant the flag and come back and crow about it, no! We want a self-sustaining planet, a base on Mars that can support people. This means it has to be done in several steps. The first step would be to create a base on Mars with power. Solar power could provide the energy, and lava tubes, underground lava tubes might be able to provide caves by which astronauts could live and create the first outposts underground. That’s the way it was done in the movie 2001 [A Space Odyssey]. The moon base on the moon in that movie was underground, providing a natural barrier to radiation. And then once you have the base set up you have to begin the process of creating a self-sustaining agriculture there. I mean what are you going to eat on Mars? You can’t order a hamburger, because everything has to be shipped from the planet Earth. You want to create an agriculture and this means genetic engineering. This means creating genetically-modified algae and plants that can consume the rich carbon dioxide atmosphere, live in a very cold environment, and thrive. We’re going to have to genetically modify our plants so that we can create an agriculture so that it is self-sustaining on Mars. Then we have to create mining operations. We have to mine the ice. Ice can provide oxygen for breathing, water for drinking, and hydrogen for rocket fuel. And so we have to begin a mining operation so that we have the materials to build cities, materials to build bases, oxygen to breathe, water to drink, and hydrogen for rocket fuel. Then the last step in the process—and this will take maybe another hundred years—is to send satellites orbiting around Mars to begin the process of melting the polar ice caps. This is called space solar power. We have the blueprints already; the problem is cost. But the costs are dropping for sending payloads into outer space—dramatically—and so people are once again dusting off these old plans to create satellites around Mars that can beam energy and begin the process of melting the ice caps. Now, once you raise the temperature of Mars by about six degrees, once the temperature of Mars rises six degrees it becomes autocatalytic, it takes off, it becomes self-feeding, because the more heat you have on Mars the more carbon dioxide you loft into the atmosphere, which creates more greenhouse effect, which allows you to melt even more ice to raise the temperature even more, so you have a positive feedback loop. The question is: can we reach six degrees? That’s the key point. If we can raise the surface temperature of Mars by six degrees we can create this artificial spiral by which it feeds on itself and we can begin the process of terraforming Mars. And so remember: robots don’t need terraforming, humans do. And so to make Mars suitable for humans that’s going to be the big problem.

First off, this is NOT an episode of the Case for Mars! For existing viewers, this video is the first attempt at creating a shorter overview of the topic, that I will later cover in the next upcoming episode of the Case for Mars. Let me know what your opinions are of this idea! In this video, we discuss SpaceX's proposed timeline to send humans to Mars. We look at what steps they have to take along the way, and compare the rocket they plan on using, to the rocket that took astronauts to the moon! Here at Martian Wolf, we aim to learn about different technologies that enable us to make incredible scientific discoveries about space exploration! Thanks for watching!

Humans will have to breath, drink and eat while living on the Moon. They will need energy to perform tasks using their robotic companions and materials to build structures. For a sustainable approach to space exploration these resources cannot be carried from Earth but have to be found on the Moon itself. Angel Abbud Madrid is the Director of the Center for Space Resources at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM), where he leads a multidisciplinary research programme on the human and robotic exploration of space and the utilisation of its resources. He is also the Director of the CSM Space Resources Program, the first academic programme in the world focused on educating scientists, engineers, economists, entrepreneurs and policymakers in the developing field of space resources.  Space Bites hosts the best talks on space exploration from the most inspiring and knowledgeable speakers from the field. Held at the technical heart of the European Space Agency in the Netherlands, the lectures are now also available on YouTube.

The Case for Mars explores the different discoveries that are taking place on the Red Planet. In this episode, we discuss NASA's plan to send astronauts to Mars. In 2008, they started a program called "The Journey to Mars". They outlined three different phases that would guide the way to being able to send astronauts to the red planet. These phases include Earth Reliant, Proving Ground, and Earth Independent. Under each phase are multiple goals, some of which include sending robotic missions to Mars, continuing the ISS until 2024, and a manned mission to study an asteroid. We also discuss what the recent administration has changed, to make it easier/harder to get to Mars.

Today we will begin our look at the spaceships we might use for colonizing interstellar space in the future. In order to cover the vast distances between even the nearest stars in our galaxy within the boundaries of known physics, we need vessels able to voyage at high speeds for very long periods of time while carrying everything they need to colonize another solar system, a concept typically known as a space ark or generation ship. We will explore the challenges and options for such a vessel, as well as some alternative approaches to the problem. "The World, The Flesh And The Devil" by J.d.

The Case for Mars explores the different discoveries that are taking place on the Red Planet. In this episode, we continue our discussion on developing a colony on Mars. In this episode, we explore the different methods of traveling across the Martian surface. We focus mainly on Martian Spacesuits that will be used for walking and possible rovers that could be used for driving. NASA, SpaceX, and many universities have developed possible Spacesuits that could be used on Mars, but the upcoming 2020 rover and it's SHERLOC experiment will help show how exactly radiation affects commonly used textiles. In terms of a Martian Buggy, the regolith (soil) on Mars is incredibly slick, almost like sand on Earth. Therefore creating a large vehicle could be challenging to explore in. It is thought that smaller (non-pressurized) cars will be used at first, with larger vehicles coming later to help build a colony and eventually travel further into the Martian terrain.

In today’s video Smart is the New Sexy will tell you what it feels like to visit every planet of the solar system and what your body reaction would be when you get there. If you’re curious to find out what “pizza” moon smells like, please keep watching. Well... To cut a long story short: On Mercury it’s quite likely that some kind of meteorite would crash on the surface and kill you. Venus has a very hot and thick atmosphere. You would not survive a visit to the surface of the planet - you would burn up in temperatures high enough to melt lead. On Mars you’ll get multiple burns because you can’t hide from the UV radiation anywhere. Jupiter will only welcome you for 1 second before crushing you with raging winds and hurricanes. And so on and so force. Once the Earth is definitely the place. The habitable zone of the solar system makes Earth a real gem for the development of life. It is neither too hot nor too cold to support liquid water - thought to be a key ingredient for the birth of various life forms. We feel pretty comfortable here but we’re also eager to explore the solar system and beyond with Smart is the new sexy! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Social Media: Facebook: http://facebook.com/enjoy.science/ The Bright Side of Youtube: https://goo.gl/rQTJZz 5-Minute Crafts Youtube: https://www.goo.gl/8JVmuC ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For more videos and articles visit: http://www.brightside.me/

Rocket launches are expensive. Even with huge price drops from SpaceX and other New Space companies, there’s no cheap way to get stuff down here in Earth’s gravity well up to low Earth orbit. In order to really survive and thrive in space, we’ve got to learn to live off the land, to acquire the resources in space that will allow us to survive… in space. We’ve got to learn to turn those raw materials into forms we need: fuel, breathable air, water, construction materials, and eventually even finished goods like rocket parts and electronics.

Today we take a trip inward, to explore Sun-Scorched Mercury. Visit our sponsor, Brilliant: https://brilliant.org/IsaacArthur/ Mercury is the nearest planet to the Sun, a seeming airless wasteland little discussed in conversations about colonizing our solar system. Today we will challenge that, and show that Mercury may be one of the most promising places for humanity to make new homes on.

You will not believe these disgusting things about space travel you never thought about! These gross things about space will make you think twice about your dreams of becoming an astronaut and maybe make you think differently about the astronauts circling the Earth! These dirty space facts will make you realize how lucky you are to live firmly on the Earth with things like gravity to keep dust, dirt, and dead skin on the ground and out of your face. Think you know everything there is to know about how disgusting space is? Check out this list of 25 Disgusting Things About Space Travel You Never Thought About and find out! If your dream is to be a space cadet or blast off on a rocket ship, you should be prepared for these downright GROSS things about outer space! From racid mystery smells to crazy ways to get rid of waste, you won’t believe what the astronauts go through to live in space! Even simple things like going to the bathroom or passing gas just don’t work right in space, with astronauts having to go to extraordinary measures to make the most simple things (like a burp or a fart) happen. Probably the grossest thing that happens in space (although not in our top 10) is that astronauts have to drink their own urine and sweat in space! From weeks without baths to pulling dead bodies alongside the space ship, you won’t believe these gross facts about space travel. Make sure to watch this video until the end to get every disgusting space fact. Make sure to leave a comment to let us know what fact you think is the worst!

The Case for Mars explores the different discoveries that are taking place on the Red Planet. In this episode, we continue our discussion on some of the challenges of colonizing Mars. We discuss how oxygen could be made on Mars, including both chemical and biological methods of doing so. We also look into the current research projects that are on Earth, and how they might help us get to Mars. We also discussed the International Space Station, and what they have to reuse oxygen.

At a distance of only 25 trillion miles, the Alpha Centauri star system is a prime target in humanity's search for life outside our Solar System. Astronomers would like to know what kind of environment exists around the two stars in Alpha Centauri that closely resemble our Sun. To learn about this, NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory has been monitoring the Alpha Centauri system every six months for over a decade. Chandra is the only X-ray observatory capable of resolving the two Sun-like stars to determine which star is doing what. A new study indicates these two stars are likely not pummeling any orbiting planets with large amounts of X-ray radiation. This is promising news for the sustainability of life on any planets astronomers find around these two nearby stars in the future.
