lol why the fk would the goverment go to sutch great strength to fake moon landings and all that wtf XD now id udnerstand if space is jsut sometihng to big for your small braisn to handle but you cna reach space saying u cna go to the moon disprooves airplanes as well becosue shuttles we used today land on earth liek a plane and are much liek a plane it improves how the y get to and from space

[spacevidcast]

@Si3z3 It costs a lot to haul 50,000 lbs of wings and tail and fuselage to space, both in mass and money. It costs about $10,000 USD per pound to get to orbit. As cool and awesome as the shuttle is, it's highly inefficient.

@spacevidcast theres development for plasma engines that use mearly air and electricity but require 0 g to operate

[spacevidcast]

0 g is an issue of gravity. That's not a factor when in freefall (orbit). Plasma doesn't necessarily use air. Ion engines do use atoms in space, though(like hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe).

Who watches this boring shit?

[spacevidcast]

@Charleh3 People that appreciate science and technology watch this stuff...and you, apparently.

[lancerCNCS1]

I completely agree. It is DEFINITELY time for NASA to move beyond LEO and stretch the boundaries of human potential and expand our presence into space!!!

[TheTerminator1]

@Si3z3 we faked the moon landings to give a sense of technological superiority over our enemy, Russia.
