I'm a older dude preparing for the sunset of my life. But your videos give me hope and strength to get back on the grind. There's a big bright future out there and I plan on being part of it or at least do what I can to get my kids and grandkids kids prepared. Just wanted to say that.

This is another great addition to your resume. I'm always amazed at how much you've put into them. You are a true future thinker!

[kristofertruscott]

We should already have these space crafts we should also already been travelling multiple planets and beyond

[KeyhaneBishomar]

Exited to see what mega constructions humanity will build in the future 😱

[OnlyOneRace]

A very BIG project that you have expertly investigated...a very BIG Well Done, thank you.

[darda]

Yesterday's science fiction is tomorrow's reality! Thank you so much for this - this subscriber loves your channel!❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[alexanderimmortal]

Love independent self sufficient Space Structures more vids like this one 🤘❤️

A far more practical and near-term (relatively speaking) megastructure would be a tethered ring system, and then eventually multiple orbital rings. These could enable nearly limitless amounts of low cost transport of people and material to and from orbit that will most likely never occur otherwise, except possibly by mass drivers from the moon or other airless bodies. Unless we get the infrastructure in orbit, we can't do any of the other megastructures mentioned.

Realistically...chemical propulsion could never amass this level of power output...the material needed for "Dyson Swarms", would have to be heat proof basically and require the entire harvesting of planets...not small planets either...etc.

This dream can only be accomplished by private companies, governments with their regulations are too narrow thinking to pull it off.

[Guitarty]

The USA Canada and the UK cant even build proper houses for people so no chance of doing it in near earth orbit.

[adamlee]

We're all winning the space race with my Thou Shall/Shalt Not Murder Mothership for Mother Earth.

[MrThacke]

We already have over 550 incarcerations upon other planets after death. A digital mind is not that it’s a mock up and art form. You can’t astral travel with such a mind.

[sergioandresjr]

Humans evolve, as well as planets, we are living in a multidimensional Universe, and that's normal physics, we don't have to deny that we will never evolve in a higher dimension of the 5D, and space travel is not a problem as it is today.. interstellar travel is possible only in 5D and up..

So many of these space megastructures that involve enveloping a star would/are impossible to build, you mention early on in building a space shield protecting our plant from solar flares or coronal mass ejection with both being a common occurrence of any Star would rip apart any attempts to build super large structures. We have no way of preventing or controlling either a solar flare or coronal mass ejection they are frequently naturally occurring outburts from any Star, the Earth is just so small in it's orbit around our Sun that we have been lucky that our modern World has only had to face a couple of events. The Carrington Event was the most intense geomagnetic storm in recorded history, peaking on 1–2 September 1859 during solar cycle 10, Earths technological age had only just begun so it was only our telegraph system that was damaged and if such a event was to happen now life on Earth would grind to a stop with all the nasty sides of humanity rearing it's ugly head in a scramble for resources. Resources that are wasted by manufacturers producing products that hold so many precious metals into products that are built to fail and dumped into landfill sites so the next generation can be produced to keep wealthy companies profits high at the cost of humanity being a throw away society with materials that will be put to much better use in better future tech.

[ChrisMarshallUS]

Wouldn't too many satellites in a Dyson swarm cause a significant reduction in the light that reaches earth, causing it to cool down too much?

[Noita]

When I hear colony ships I immediately think of the colony ships from the anime series Macross.

[enderwiggen]

So long as Boeing doesn’t design/build them

[thinker]

🙏💙🌎😎🇨🇦 I think you haven't imagined enough of the future

[angryhedgehoglee]

Colony class starship. So what does that look like? 100, 000 crew and room for another 200, 000. It'd have to be ridiculously large, but then that's the whole point.

[MasoudNyoni-go]

Thanks space megastrucure for information 😊
