JWST May Have Discovered a New Cosmic Object: The Black Hole Star

Sign Up on Patreon to get access to the Space Time Discord! https://www.patreon.com/pbsspacetime Gigantic black holes existed in a cosmic eyeblink after the Big Bang. That should be impossible. The James Webb Space Telescope has either made the problem much worse, or solved it by discovering the first Black Hole Star.

How NASA Reused Rocket Boosters Before SpaceX

For 30 years NASA's Space Shuttle reused its rocket boosters, recovering them from the Atlantic Ocean after every flight using a pair of specially built ships that would recover the nosecones, parachutes and then finally the massive boosters using a complicated operation that would ultimately tow them back to port for processing. Over 135 launches they recovered boosters on 133, and the majority of the parts were reused multiple times, indeed, the boosters flying on SLS were recovered via this process.

Starship Escapes The Indian Ocean - Where Will It Go Next?

Take your personal data back with Incogni! Use code MANLEY at the link below and get 60% off an annual plan: https://incogni.com/manley Starship SN40 has finally made it out of the middle of the Indian ocean, being towed to Christmas Island by the Normand Ranger and Go Australis. It's not being brough ashore, there now a specialized semi-submersible vessel 'Forte' which includes a deck that can go under the water, allowing cargo to be floated over the top to simplify loading. Forte could in theory take it all the way to the US, andthat would take almost 2 months. Or it might take it to Australia and then load it onto a smaller ship for the trip to the US. We don't know right now, but we'll find out.

Inside NASA's Heat Shield Laboratory

Taking care of your health just got easier – start here with Zocdoc: https://zocdoc.com/scottmanley #sponsored Last month NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View California gave a handful of creators a tour of its facilities, showing off a number of cool.... and hot technologies. One of the tours covered the Thermal Protection Materials labs which have been working on heat shielding technology for decades, this is the place that the heat shielding using on the Space Shuttle, Orion, Dragon, Starliner and other spacecraft was originally developed.

Soyuz Rocket Factory Attacked By 'Flamingos'

I've had a lot of questions about this, Ukraine launched cruise missiles which managed to hit the Progress factory in Samara which, among other things, builds the Soyuz rocket.

Using Water As Rocket Fuel - Is This The Future of Space Exploration?

When people think about rocket fuels, they don't think of water at the top of their list, but water has been a key material in many serious studies on exploring the solar system and refueling in space. And it turns out that water electrolysis propulsion makes engineering sense for many applications.

China's Rocket Literally Bent Under Pressure!

This morning a Long March 7A rocket launching from Wengchang in China suffered a dramatic failure close to Max-Q. We don't have much in the way of details of the launch or its payload but a selection of videos posted on China's social media support the conclusion that a structural failure due to launch loads. The rocket is seen to bend at the interstage between the 2nd and 3rd stage leading to the destruction of the vehicle.

Smashing Stuff Into The Moon.... For Science????

A couple of days ago a spent rocket upper stage hit the moon, it was a largely inconsequential event, but regardless the story got a lot of coverage, because.... reasons? In the 60's and 70's there was lots of smashing things into the moon, sometimes intentionally, sometimes accidently. Sometimes science was done as a result.

Travelling At 99% of The Speed Of Light Looks Strange - Project Hail Mary's Space Warp

Project Hail Mary is my favourite movie of the year, and while many people have made videos explaining time dilation due to travelling close to the speed of light, nobody has tried to visualise how the universe appears to warp due to relativistic aberration. I wanted to create these visuals to give you an idea of what it would look like at these speeds, even without a warp drive or hyperspace nothing looks right. The Model used in the render tests is available here, thanks to Quake for sharing: https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/project-hail-mary-ship-6ab223b7be274f7ab473ca4aafa8a20d The browser based visualization tool is here: https://dmytry.github.io/space/ Go fast, see the big bang Follow me on Twitter for more updates: https://twitter.com/DJSnM I have a discord server where I regularly turn up: https://discord.gg/zStmKbM If you really like what I do you can support me directly through Patreon https://www.patreon.com/scottmanley
