  1. Great video! Thank you. Clearly the Coast Guard is worth every penny we spend on it!

  2. Great video! Thank you. It’s wonderful to see this kind of excellent rehearsal going on.

  3. Question: Has any significant research been done on the effects of 1/3 normal gravity on the human body over prolonged exposure? If living for an extended period in 1/3 normal gravity causes significant serious damage to the human body, then Mars and the Moon are essentially worthless for human colonization. Before we spend tons of money trying to colonize Mars or the Moon , we should now the answer to this. Research on mice on this issue could be done on this issue on the ISS at very low costs in terms of launch cots, space on the ISS, and astronaut time. When will this be done?

  4. Lensflare Deviant Mice! Take a rotating habitat 2 m in diameter up to the international space station put by cement and rotated at about 20 rpm. That will give you an apparent gravity for the base of about 1/3 normal gravity or something just about equal to Mars gravity. Keep the mice there for as long as you want (they don’t have a Union) then bring them back and see what kind of effects of happened or not happened on their metabolism. Cheap, quick to do, and it would certainly give us some significant data. Certainly, It wouldn’t be data on people but it would give us some indications of what we might see in people. Right now, as far as I know the international space station is the only place that we could really do this kind of testing quickly and cheaply. As far as I know though, no one is doing it. Why not? Wasn’t the idea behind the international space station to enable us to do experiments exactly like this?

  5. Great video! Thank you! However, making a video like this means that you will never work as an engineer. Do you think Tesla wants you? Do you think SpaceX wants you? Do you think NASA wants you? Do you think the Boeing corporation wants you? Do you think GM or Ford want you? Do you think any military contractor wants you? Do you think the condos that are collapsing in Florida wants you to work there? Unfortunately, telling the truth is not a good way to get a job.

  6. Elon is coming! The Elon, who is now destroying Tesla and has already destroyed. Twitter is coming to destroy SpaceX and Starl Inc.! Elon is coming and Elon will destroy everything. Hide!

  7. What happened to the Morton Thiokol engineers who warned that launching the space shuttle in freezing temperatures was not a good idea. Then make a video about whether or not you still believe that saying unwelcome news is still a good idea. I don’t know what happened to those engineers, but I think their case would be a good test of what happens to people who speak inconvenient truths.
