  • @TheMimzy011 you could've put it no better

  • Oh, isn't that funny. I didn't know the thickness of the aurora was so little. Such a thin shell, so far above the Earth's surface. Well, the atmosphere increases in density exponentially with decreasing altitude, so I guess such a sharp cutoff is not completely unexpected.

  • amazing! it's like supermans green crystal from the planet Krypton :)

  • @demandspacetourism Part 2. You can leave me an email address on my channel. We are a technologically advanced species but we are still using economic and political strategies that we have evolved since the stone age. The economists who advise our governments are too conditioned to see through the orthodox ideas they have been idoctrinated into in business school. We need a popular movement and we need to start making this into a poitical issue. Peace

  • @demandspacetourism Part 1. On the idea that "we need to explore space" this is a misconception. It makes no more sense to "Explore" space than it does to explore the space in an ocean. Also you can't explore anthing with taxation from a collapsed economy. We need to extend our economy into orbital space, and it is our learning to liv and funtion and evolve science there that will one day fit us to travel further afield. If anyone wants me to email the complete political economic explanation,

  • @demandspacetourism Why do you think the bankers and the corporate CEOs are businly squeezing amazing bonuses out of the organisatons they work for, they suspect what is coming and are ensuring that they and their own are looked after. For the rest of us, economic collapse in the west will mean economic migration to the East, and downward spiralling living standards. But we have an untapped technology that we need to industrialise. This can bring unparralled wealth to the western world.

  • @ct92404 Politics and economics are my subjects my friend, and I don't need to wait until some politician tells me an official opinion to know what I see is happening. They don't want to say that the economic situation in the west is unrecoverable because it would cause more panic. I can say it because i'm tellging you the only solution possible. In all previous "depressions" the west has still dominated global economics, now it can't do so, only something new, can bring about recovery.

  • @demandspacetourism

    This is getting off the topic of the video, but I really think that this is way more than a recession now. I think we're actually in a Depression, and it started in 2007. I'll bet that sometime in the future, they'll say that this was actually a depression and they'll call it the "Great Depression of 2007" or "Crash of 2007" or something like that. Some people are already calling it the "Great Depression 2.0"

  • @ct92404 You say it won't happen during our lifetime, I say it has to be brought forward to right now, it is the only way I can find to bring about proper ecnomic recovery in the west. We could have had sub-orbital space tourism in the 1970s, but TNCs were making their money riding the wave of western global economic deminance. The only thing lacking is today real large scale demand to stimulate commercial investment, people simply don't believe it can be made to happen. Its just a decision away
