There's a single person spacecraft being designed to go with the Orbital Reef. That's probably going to have more utility and be safer than something that straps on to a space suit. Will it get built for Orbital Reef? Hopefully. Will somebody eventually do something like this even if this doesn't pan out? I think it's inevitable.

Actually, the 'single most iconic picture taken from space', which includes the Apollo moon landings, is of course the photo of Buzz Aldrin that was taken by Neil Armstrong during the Apollo 11 mission in 1969.

Excellent video but "most dangerous spacewalk"? Come on, I don't think it's even close. There have been a couple of spacewalks that involved fluid leaks. One of them involved an alarmingly large ball of water forming around the astronaut's head and he was actually at risk of drowning.

Excellent video i was casually surfing about space suits and hence another great KZread suggestion..........great content....

So amazing, yet so frightening! I didn't know spacewalking existed until I played a VR astronaut simulation. It was my curiosity that brought me here. Seeing spacewalking on video is breathtaking but also chilling. It was frightening to walk in VR.

i remember the first american astronaut in space that did the first crossbow space walk.. man he really got sad when huston canceled it :/

Free maneuver in space is probably always gonna be less than ideal but as a working class of people used to performing extravehicular tasks emerges I'd guess we'd see more people with innate skill at free maneuvering. It would probably also be possible to use computer aided control. All I know is fully manual, 6-degrees-of-freedom spaceflight is a bitch.

Kerbal space program will give you an idea of it lol. I guess barring some malfunction that's throws you wildly off course or space debris, it's not as dangerous as it seems.

they could have had a long tether attatched while doing the space walk so if the pack fails they still have a way to get back they can also pull on the tether hard to bring them close to the craft fast if the comms falls loose or ice buidup im js

i would be terrified if i was over the earth and the jetpack just stopped

it was Bruce McCandless who flew 98m from the Challenger Space Shuttle

I love these documentaries

Oh please, we all know who's the guy with the first successful airplane, Santos Dumont

I cant belive they made space jet packs and not normal jet packs :(

"Tether or no dice" would be my policy. Preferably two tethers. In fact, I'll just stay here.

He's in the water

I was playing a vr iss game and I accidentally started floating away from the station, couldn’t imagine that but it was real but at least they had the jets

DC or other space museums are must trip to all middle school to high school students of world , expenses to be picked up by Governments, its not only very enlightening, fascinating and strangely real to see up close personal what is so far only on television visuals, and brings home the point of infinite intelligence and reach of human minds, but along with that do not forget civil social responsibilities of looking after all human lives which also has far more important value to nurture nourish lives which might have suffred from neglect because of these issues overlooked in their lives.

They were getting much better with the arm based EVAs, and the MMU is both considerably more risky and in many ways less capable. On the arm an astronaut can apply pressure with both their arms without burning through propellant. The MMU had a total delta v of only around 25m/s. That's fine if you are just pottering around at a fraction of a m/s relative to your base, but you are going to have to anchor somewhere to do any real work. The torque from tightening a nut takes a surprising amount of propellant to counter. To do many jobs from the MMU the astronaut must also anchor themselves somehow, while on an arm they would not. It's easy to focus on the "risk" part of it, but the decision was probably more to do with the "unnecessary" part. It just isn't a good solution to the problems it was meant for, cool though it is. That's before you even consider that they were also hoping to move into stations. The shuttle made it far less risky, having a good RCS system of it's own. Worst case scenario and the MMU failed completely the plan was to manoeuvre the whole shuttle to get them into the cargo bay, close the doors, and then recover them with no risk of them bouncing off. You can't do that with a station.

@HylanderSB

2 жыл бұрын

@@agsystems8220 Valid points. Though, do astronauts always use the arm to service the station? My understanding is that they often transit manually. The MMU would be good for that. Do station EVAs involving torque always have the arm in use?
