Rail guns are far more efficient in the vacuum of space. Velocities are much higher due to lack of atmospheric interference.

[mikkelnpetersen]

Never underestimate a piece of metal moving at high speed.
It's simple, yet effective.

[mpw]

Mach 30 = 10 km/s. 30+ sec to ISS, 1ß+ hours to moon, 40+ hours to JWST. Very much time to dodge!

[danielburgess]

Aerodynamic space craft? Someone needs to take physics 101 again. -1

[frankmoore]

All that money and no one thought to put sensors around the solar system ?

[RANON]

9:08 see this part here just breaks the story for me. Extraterrestrial Invaders were beyond the thought of comprehension? Then why did you spend trillions to build the railguns pointing out to space? 😂

[Rosivok]

Mark 30 is a meaningless number in space but if you actually multiply 30 by 670 mph you come up with a very slow speed for space travel for that projectile to reach the edge of the solar system would require something in the nature of about 10 years.

[machopi]

>aliens attacking
>SIR THE EXPERTS BELIEVE THEY MIGHT BE FROM ANOTHER WORLD!
shocking revelation

[edkrach]

Aerodynamics has no use in space, only in atmosphere.

[chefdeth]

Fred Saberhagen..Berserker..Warp Railgun.

[warhawkbm]

Wait, how did the railguns not work in the first half of the battle, then suddenly be the ultimate weapons?

[jonathankeenhold]

I'd go with a mac( magnetic acceleration cannon) rail guns require barrel replacement after a few shots due to the friction created. Not a problem with mac's

[RobertCrickmore]

The story is about ground based guns. That's correct. Everybody gets all excited about space based railguns including Halo's MAC's but they forget one thing. Newtons Third Law. Equal and opposite reaction. One shot and your gun platform goes flying away out of control. The nanosecond that projectile starts to move so does the gun throwing off the targeting so even that one shot is useless. Yeah, I know talk like that gets me thrown out of ComiCon. The walking buzzkill.

[goatkiller]

What kind of shock wave do these things generate? Since they’re ground based, throwing heavy chunks of tungsten through our atmosphere and into space would make a bunch of sonic booms. Maybe more like meteors…check the videos about the small one that almost hit Russia, before it exploded in the air. That boom could be heard hundreds of miles away.

[soulpach]

And all the ones that miss their targets just keep on going forever until they hit a star or some otherwise friendly aliens who are now really pissed at us. Also, "the laws of aerodynamics"? In hard vacuum? Dude.

[johnmckown]

Railguns are magnetic. What's with the flames? Atmospheric friction?

[grantgunz]

4000 quatloo's the humans cannot be contained!

[snowwolf]

My first question would be if as they just said they thought they were the only people in the universe of course any attacker would need to be extraterrestrial who did they think they were building the railguns to fight to shoot if not at extra terrestrials?

[murphymmc]

Why was the largest rail gun not initiated and deployed in the beginning? When did the targeting become effective? Did the aliens just stop jamming the targeting systems? Poor continuity.

[kennethabagis]

Don't we already have rail cannons?
