  2. Congrats you've realised this is YET ANOTHER full of shite YouTuber with YET ANOTHER full of shite video. I'm an aerospace engineer and what I hate (and I really do mean swing a baseball bat hate) about these people is the amount of crap REAL ENGINEERS now have to explain away afterwards. I've just spent YET MORE TIME explaining to people why Jeff Bezos claim of moving all of Earth's heavy industry to low earth orbit is IMPOSSIBLE. Its pretty simple if you just consider the worlds iron supply which starts with over 3,000,000,000 (3 billion) tons of iron ore that produces around 2,100,000,000 tons of iron & steel. Not only do you have to lift that to orbit but then also bring it back down which requires the equivalent of 150,000,000 (150 million) space shuttle flights a year. AND THAT'S JUST the iron after that is nickel, copper, tin, aluminium, zinc and all the other stuff. If you're and engineer or other STEM person this garbage is infuriating, but then we have billionaires fuelling a lot of it. Jeff Bezos isn't alone as Elon Musk is even worse and after him are the other tech billionaires and tech conglomerates.

  3. As an aerospace engineer thank you for bringing this up. Its one of those things I have tried explaining to clowns who think people like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos know what they are talking about. You know the people who think Hollywood and the mainstream media actually understands science. Its the one thing no Star Trekker want's to even admit that most of the tech really is impossible BS. Arthur C Clarke wrote a non-fiction book called "Profiles of the Future" in which he discussed the actual possibilities of some of the technologies from his and other peoples fictional work. Its the sort of "Tome of Practical Wisdom" we should bash the crud out of space cadet clowns with.
