FASTER THAN LIGHT: The Dream of Interstellar Flight 4k

The dream of venturing into the unknown, to see what's over the horizon, is as old as humanity. Today scientists believe our galaxy is filled with planets similar to Earth. But if one proves habitable, how will we ever get there? Can NASA take us? What are futuristic engineers conjuring up in their labs? Next-generation rocket technology is not just for blockbuster movies. It's on the drawing board now as scientists investigate the mind-bending physics of extreme speed.

Humans can't even go to Mars let alone another Star. It's about time to realize that fact and look after the Earth.
-
Amazing graphics, well done 👏
-
That was the best warp drive simulation I've seen, even in movies. Salute.
-
Surely a nicely produced and entertaining thought experiment. Even with exponential growth of both knowledge and physical capabilities it may take us a few centuries to come close, if at all possible.
-
If we didn’t fight among each other and use our collective knowledge, we could be able to travel distance stars like Star Trek
-
Embarking on near light speed travel, leaves the traveler with no one to report back to, and no one aware of the arrival, in fact if anyone exists when the traveler slows down having travelled into far future.
-
The only way, interstellar travel would make sense, is if we can build our own habitats. To not be dependent on the accidental earth like planet. Then, pretty much every solar system would be a destination.

That was a brilliant video ❤
-
😞😞😞 This makes me question why we are even here. All the habitat planets in the universe, why were we placed here. So far from all others, that we'll never be able to explore or learn from them, at least not in our lifetime anyway. So why put us here! Is mankind destined to be alone in the universe!
-
We're getting there people. About another 100 years I'm convinced we're will figure out how to travel at light speed. Something needs to change with our physics and we are gone. Just need the right mind, and stop hiding technology from each other.
-
That was so good! Great ! One of us will find a way! Am sure
-
How far and how fast? Sadly, not very far and not very fast. We have made almost zero progress in propulsion since the 1960s. We are still using chemical rockets, which will struggle to even reach another nearby, planet and forget the outer solar system. It still takes decades to send a small, unmanned probe. Sure, we can find exoplanets, getting good at that but we have zero options for getting there.

AI is going to end up figuring this out for us, just give it some time.
-
Thank you . This video is interesting.
-
I'D LOVE TO GO TO INTERSTELLAR SPACE, DREAM COME TRUE

While we may not travel interstellar distances, we CAN accelerate our probes to appreciable fractions of light speed, and they can beam data back to us.
-
SpaceRip the best to ever do it since YouTube came out!!
-
SpaceRip rebound from ashes with new narrator voice, execelent
