10 times as big as Starship! 8 THOUSAND times as fast!! Enzmann's Pulse Nuclear Starship!

My latest video about the work of Dr. Robert Enzmann. The Pulse Starship is the ultimate generation ship, capable of carrying thousands of colonists at thousands of kilometers per second!

As Isaac Arthur on his channel says, "If brut force isn't working for you, you're not using enough". Lol

Another BIG problem is the issue of encountering any sort of space debris at that speed. At 10% c a grain of dust has the kinetic energy of a small nuclear bomb i.e 20-30 kt. Even microsized mass will wreak heavoc on the spaceship. A way to blast interstellar dust is needed and the window to destroy it before a collision of the order of a few picoseconds if we are to blast it with some sort of laser.

Imagine how pissed you'd be being born mid journy on a generation ship😅

[devon]

This gives me a band idea. 30 minutes to mars

[ecrowder]

Videos about different types of propulsion and its uses are my favorite types of videos. Thank you!

All the Generation ships, considered for human, interstellar travel, will likely be built in Earth or Lunar orbit. The vessels are to large to be launched from Earth's Atmosphere. This means the personnel equivalent to several naval shipyards would be required, in you want the Ennesman ship or Daedalus ship built within one generation (30 to 50 yrs).

Simple physics. Bigger is better.
Surface scales with ^2 but volume scales ^3.
A bigger ship will always be more efficient in almost every metric.

Enzmann was way ahead of his time. Of course the first missions to use it will have to be unmanned. Would be great for delivering cargo to Mars, for example.

[Astronist]

Thank you for mentioning the British Interplanetary Society's Daedalus project. This study goes into engine design and fuel acquisition in exhaustive detail. It is clear from a detailed study that we are nowhere near being able to build a starship yet and will not be ready for some centuries in the future. The first step will be to restore global security against invasions of countries by dictatorships.

[CDCLLC]

You forgot to mention my upcoming spaceship. It will be 50 times bigger than SpaceX's and 48 times faster. I am building it on the Moon.

[captainbirdseye]

12 million tons of fuel?! so at 100 tons per Starship to get it to orbit, 120, 000 Starship launches, plus the construction of that massive beast, lets say half a million starship launches for just ONE Nuclear Starship. You would have to send nearly 4 a day for a year just to fuel it.

[MichelleSnyder]

We can do this today!!! Look up to the sky like we sit on the beach and gaze at the ocean. It is beautiful. Some want to sit and watch, some want to dip their toes in, a few will swim!

[GrigoriZhukov]

Simple, first shop unmanned. Loaded with mining bots, shipyard, and maintenance dock bots. All loaded VI to start gathering raw materials and processing into usable prepackaged loads. So the a quality ships with passengers and crew can pick up what they need. Because they will not be able infinitely recycle all the stuff they need.

I saw a UAP in the Smoky mountains that looked like it was staying airborne with multiple scram jets and it was loud as hell.❤❤

[paolorui]

These fantastic machines would be wonderful on old-style Popular Mechanics covers. Thank you Angry for exciting us like kids with such wonders of physics and technology

[kjm-chjc]

Great going warp speed, but slowing down nearing your destination would be a challenge.

[zaxxon]

The deceleration only requires an extra engine at the front. You would stop firing the rear engines, and start firing the forward engine.

Mr. Wright mentioned in his opening statements about nuclear propulsion in an article written in Starlog 1977.
After going through the PDF archives from the year, I was unable to find it.
It's important to see how far we've advanced on the matter in 47 years assuming the article ever existed.
I asked Copilot that pointed to Project Orion in August 1977 #10 (with famous X-Wing Tie Fighter cover) but only found the saving of Rockeship X-M from the Brink. #10 had article from Issac Aszimov on warp drive and going faster than light using Tachyons and reduced mass but not nuclear propulsion.

Trying to imagine The vibrational stress on a generational ship for 100 years.
After a couple of runs to Mars and back, they might start looking for a better alternative.

[mikldude]

Maybe we could compromise on the speed thing, 20 or 25 times faster than what we already have would be a decent jump and improvement , instead of 6 months to go to mars, it would be down to 7 days, and that should be doable .
Imagine how that would improve logistics, the amount of provisions then not needed would save masses of weight and add more cargo space, space vehicles are just like cars in one sense, speed costs money, finding the happy medium is the go imo.
