By: Ashchip24. on 08 Jan 10, 07:21:23 umm...mines are weight pressurized, try moving a 200lbs rock. most geared soldiers, fully geared will weigh a minimum of 200+ lbs. so it really wasn't a needless thought. and on the other hand I don't think there is a rock that big at that part of the episode. Attention to detail | |

| Really like this ... By: paladinstorm. on 17 Jul 09, 16:21:51 Really like this episode. Though I do have issue with their use of the term 'cyborg' when it's clear it is a fully robotic machine; cyborg implies part-human, like RoboCop. They make a few minor mistakes in this series, but in the end I feel they're forgivable because it's just so well-done on the whole. | |

@DaMcaAtak I'm not talking about interstellar travel, I'm talking about interplanetary travel. We can invent warp drive or whatever later.
By: DaMcaAtak. on 03 Mar 10, 23:46:45
@airdriver Unfortunately it would take ( going at 55kms one of its expected high speeds) 5469 years approximately to reach alpha centauri.
By: airdriver. on 26 Feb 10, 18:51:31
Dr. Diaz needs some better PR training in how to better communicate this idea. This could be what we need really open up interplanetary exploration and settlement.
By: airdriver. on 26 Feb 10, 18:47:17
Well what the hell are we waiting for? Keep the Shuttle fleet flying(or finish up Venturestar) build the damn thing in orbit and let's get to Mars. After that, the whole solar system is wide open with this baby.
By: EdouardDubois. on 13 Feb 10, 03:12:34
@ eqworld & NuclearWatermelon Actually, in the later portion of the video Mr. Chang-Diaz explains that a scaled up version of the VASIMR would need more power and suggests using a fission reactor to fuel it. When you start needing multi-megawatts solar just doesn't cut it. Especially if they want to use these as far out as Mars. But it's not a big deal, by then we will probably have really good radiation control systems. And we can hope people will have gotten over their fear of nuclear.
By: EdouardDubois. on 13 Feb 10, 03:05:38
2:35 "Possible fuels for the VASIMR engine could include hydrogen, deuterium, helium, nitrogen, and other." *GASP!* Those aren't fuels, a NASA scientist should know this. Those are propellants. In a plasma rocket there is a considerable difference between those two.
By: EdouardDubois. on 13 Feb 10, 03:01:14
I wonder though... if the extreme heat is the primary thing that differentiates a Plasma thruster from an Ion thruster, would an engine that ran on cold plasmas be considered an ion thruster? Or... is it all the same crap?
By: henik9. on 12 Feb 10, 19:31:59
Yeah I definitely feel like a child watching this but I hope it gets built successfully.
By: pcjwss. on 02 Feb 10, 22:59:47
right, okay from other comments, it turns out she is a childrens tv presenter. In that case, keep up the good work jennifer.
By: pcjwss. on 02 Feb 10, 22:53:09
that woman talks to camera like a childrens tv presenter. She's awful. brilliant engine though!
By: TheNuclearWatermelon. on 01 Feb 10, 21:38:29
No, its not a fission reactor! Its a magnetoplasma rocket! This has ablosutly nothing to do with nuclear fission. It's simply a rocket where plasma is heated to provide thrust.
By: eqtworld. on 31 Jan 10, 19:21:06
@TheNuclearWatermelon They are proposing a fission reactor
By: TheNuclearWatermelon. on 31 Jan 10, 03:07:36
its not a fission reactor O.o
By: eqtworld. on 24 Jan 10, 05:21:42
Launching a fission reactor with enough power would be a public relations nightmare
By: trakkaton. on 19 Jan 10, 20:09:29
Your first sentence is an attempt to answer the question, but formalities and abstract, arbitrary concepts such as "extraterrestrial mining rights" are hardly a motivation to go there. The rest of your comment just is no answer to the question. Try again.
By: CrazyForCooCooPuffs. on 02 Jan 10, 01:40:01
there trying to get its efficiency up
By: trakkaton. on 26 Dec 09, 16:47:05
So let's say we postpone the manned mission to MARS, which we postponed for the last 50 years another 50 years. What's the disadvantage?
By: blad3runn69. on 14 Dec 09, 09:40:49
Great work! possibly a very promising step toward instellar travel. If you have any spare time a badass time-space bending gravity engine is what we need. The universe is a pretty big place, i think it might even bigger than youtube ;)
By: GreenFont. on 10 Nov 09, 12:13:48
Using magnetic forces to shield from radiation... isn't that a deflector array in Star Trek? lol. Impulse drive will serve us well for inter planetary travel when it's advanced enough but for interstellar travel we will need to devise a way of travel exceeding the light barrier, for that we will need anti matter reaction.
By: mobius1234. on 04 Nov 09, 00:11:37
poor funding, thats why :(
By: witness2history. on 29 Oct 09, 04:36:52
Taking so long because it's not getting enough money. I think NASA out to partner with Space X and get the Falcon/Dragon system up and running. Can be done two years earlier and cheaper than the white elep[hant they are trying to fly now. Then use saving to research ans develop stuff like VASIMIR
By: roidroid. on 27 Oct 09, 06:11:45
I imagine Dr Diaz is well aware of what Impulse means, and why VASIMR is in no way similar to the fictional "Impulse Drive" of StarTrek which famously used no reaction mass at all. If you think otherwise, please take the effort to make use of 500 characters to explain yourself beyond "NUH UH".
By: decaalv. on 27 Oct 09, 05:32:40
go tell that to Dr. Diaz.
By: fizzmaverick. on 26 Oct 09, 02:36:10
thanks for your response! looking forward to this......
By: frcz10. on 25 Oct 09, 23:52:55
Well I'm Costa Rican, and today Costa Rican main newspaper has informed that VASIMR wil be going into space in 2013. They already signed an agreement with NASA in 2008 and it's now a reality. Franklin Chang's engine will be tested in the International Space Station in 2013!
