Space Tourism

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/07/11

Space is an awesome place filled with virtually infinite wonders to explore, and human colonization will likely make far more. It may soon be possible for people to journey up to orbit as tourists, and in the more distant future this might become a vast trade, with tourism in Space Station Hotels or on the Moon or Mars or traveling to countless other planets, moons, asteroids, or megastructures.

Synthetic Meat

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/07/04

There are many reasons not to eat meat, or at least less of it: medical, ethical, economical, or ecological, but the stuff is quite tasty. Today we'll look at how artificial meat technologies in the near future might allow us to produce a genuine alternative to modern methods of standard agriculture or meat substitutes, and maybe even some exotic meats not available at the supermarket.

Beam Powered Spaceships (Narration Only)

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/06/27

In order to get into space, we require either huge amounts of rocket fuel or dangerously powerful energy sources, making personal spacecraft a technology limited to science fiction. But by harnessing beamed power sources to run engines, we may be able to create a spaceplane cheap enough and safe enough that anyone could have one in the future.

Superpowers

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/06/20

The dream of having superhuman abilities is as old as humanity, and appeared in everything from mythology to comic books, but the future might offer technologies that turn these dreams into reality. Today we'll explore some of those options, from superstrength and speed to options like telepathy.

Colonizing Pluto

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/06/06

Pluto and it's largest moon, Charon, are so far from the Sun and so tiny that they would not seem like promising options for interplanetary colonization. However, they may turn out to be excellent prospects precisely because the double dwarf planet offers some unique options, like space elevators right from surface to surface.

Spaceplanes (Narration Only)

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/05/30

Spaceplanes long seemed like the logical next step for getting into orbit after the Space Shuttle, but have seemingly fallen to the wayside in recent years in favor of reusable rockets. But the future may see a return of spaceplanes, and we'll look at some of the more promising designs like Skylon.

Fleet Of Stars

Science & Futurism with Isaac Arthur ·

2019/05/16

Interstellar travel is very time consuming, moving from star to star, but perhaps we could use stars themselves as spaceships, and move whole solar systems or even galaxies. Today we'll look at how to use Shkadov Thrusters, novas, supernovae, black holes and quasars to move through space, literal starships.

The option of using floating platforms, balloons, or cargo air planes to launch rockets into space and save fuel is often discussed but rarely employed. Today we'll look at stratostations, rockoons, and other suggested methods for getting into space using these methods.
