Dang... This might just be one of my favorite episodes you've ever made, and that's saying something. Seeing the orbital rings, stellasers, fusion economy, and so many other concepts from previous episodes all put together to form a system is really amazing. Your vision of humanity's (near) future is unlike any I've ever seen before, but, once explained, it seems so cogent and self-evidently necessary that I have a hard time believing it won't happen that way, at least in the broad strokes. This channel has quickly become my second-favorite exploration of science and possibility, right after Carl Sagan's original Cosmos. Keep up the good work!

so this whole channel is absolutely amazing, the Outward Bound series are my favorite, because I feel like I am on the journey at the same time as the characters are because the characters are portrayed in the way that we feel connected to them. It’s like Isaac is telling a story instead of just explaining the science. And I don’t know about the most people, but I am a story driven person. Thank you Isaac for all you do whether you see this text or not, you are a blessing in all our lives, and all our hearts. Stay amazing my friend and keep on going because you don’t know how much we appreciate you.

I guess you could say, colonizing Neptune is pretty _cool_

This still from the beggining to now, remains one of my favorite things to do on youtube. I love thinking about the not so distant future- and how things could go. It almost sounds magical- chandelier cities hanging on Neptune, until you consider that it might actually be a really necessity.

Happy Birthdday dude!

Political science may be outside your wheelhouse, but I'm curious about what kind of governance structures you think might be in place when people start building these giant mega-projects. Such colossal endeavors and civilizations sized to build them would presumably require comparably colossal governance structures, or maybe superintelligent AI's. It doesn't seem likely to me that the kinds of governments we have experience with would work very well for civilizations with populations in the trillions and beyond equipped with world-wrecking superlasers as everyday transportation infrastructure.

Libertopa EurekanAnarch, Himalia orbits Jupiter in 251 days and rotates in 7.8 hours. Phoebe orbits Saturn in 551 days and rotates in 9.3 hours. Sycorax orbits Uranus in 1288 days and has 3.6 hour rotation.

This was my favorite episode ever: not a small feat, I must add. Congratulations Isaac and Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Isaac, thanks for all the great videos you put out!!!

"Uwanus and Nweptune" I'm sorry it's too adorable for me to pay attention 🥺

I think we should make a communal sci-fi series. We should use all these ideas and make a public work all under a single pen-name and donate the whole sum to 3 main causes : trans-humanism, space exploration, and nominal consistent power such as the solar array. If this gets to 50+ likes I'll make the Google doc.

I support you. Outward Bound: The road to the year 3000 seems like a fitting name.

Happy birthday Mister Arthur and thank you for these amazing series you have made.

One of the best videos yet, and about my favorite planet! The music was perfect as well, emotional, but not brash or overwhelming.

I wonder if colonies on Neptune could outlast the sun...

They probably could. Once you get past Saturn, the sun doesn't affect you much at all, only gravitationally and with its light.

Assuming that humans will be around for millions of years, I wonder what the solar system will look like in a million years? Will our gas planets be noticeably smaller than they are now? Take your photos people. Appreciate it while it's still here lol

I hope not. I'm fine with cannibalizing the asteroid belt / Kuiper belt / Oort cloud, but I'd rather we leave those beautiful planets alone.

You should look up the Dyson cloud episode.

I think we will mine out earth and turn it in many layers of shells each a natural automatizated habitat and eventually depopulating it and forgetting it, even forgetting the original layer were humanity once evolved while trans humans are swarming the Sun and other suns and the descendants of today's uncontacted humans recolonize earth unaware of the sky being a giant led dome and telling legends of the God-builders that created earth and sky and water and gifted that creation to them

Happy anniversary Isaac! Thanks for sharing and as always Keep Building👍

This was beautiful. This epitomises everything I love about science fiction and its capacity to bring me appreciation of our humanity.
