Iron Man's arc reactor is based on the Tesseract. The blue cube in Captain America 1 and Avengers 1. Tony's dad was able to study it and was able to theorize the energy but he wasn't able to recreate it because he was "limited by the technology of my time"

I'm pretty sure that is the new core that Tony made in Iron Man 2, because that was when the recording was shown and Tony found the structure of the element the core is made of (as you said, it's based off of the tesseract or the space stone. But not the previous ones because Tony didn't watch the recordings yet, and he used palladium for the cores.

@@MinecraftShadersandChill Howard was able to partially recreate the energy of the tesseract, as the giant arc reactor proved it, but because he was limited by the technology of his time, it was imperfect and unfinished. So that's why he switched to palladium, cuz the prototype arc reactor was unable to keep up with the energy demand of the electromagnet and suit. But because he found his father's notes and the blueprint he laid out in the expo design, he was able to complete Howard's unfinished work and make badassium

I know this is an old video, but wanted to add a bit of detail/correction to the ejection seat claims. I used to work on GRU-7 and GRU-8 ejection seats. You are 100% correct that they are designed to work fully automated. However, they are also designed with barometers and DO NOT deploy the parachute until the seat has dropped below 8k feet. We dont want pilots freezing so we dont want to deploy a chute too early. The drogue chute will deploy right away to keep the seat stable as it falls (so its not doing flips and twists the whole way down) which then will pull the main chute and release the pilot once the barometer meets the required altitude.

I stand corrected.

The Arc Reactor is supposed to be a type of theorized energy source called an 'induced decay reactor'. The premise was that you could bombard an isotope with some form of radiation, in this case I believe it is supposed to be a platinum-paladium alloy bombarded by electrons, to artificially induce a nuclear decay and capture the resulting particle as power. The platinum or paladium isotope decay trees do include an electron emission, and that particular isotopic decay induction was theorized at the time to be possible with a magnetic field. That was why they put in the scene of the Arc Reactor first needing to be kick started by an electrical power source before it became self-sustaining. I think the theory was later disproven with experimental testing, but the idea was beyond cutting edge back in the day.

The exhaust that comes out of Iron Man jets is plasma, and it leaves at around light speed. The momentum of low mass but extremely fast gas give him the propulsion needed to fly. The smoke stream is the plasma igniting the atmosphere. This kind of thruster is only possible because the Ark reactor has the power of a nuclear powerplant behind it to make this plasma. Impractical engine for anything that doesn't have an Ark reactor.

Magic and mythical creatures are on that edge of disbelief, though if Thanos is real and is part celestial then a dragon like creature makes total sense.

An amalgamation of alloyed metals to introduce certain energies and vibrations into the body so that the body may produce its own general and specific auric fields. Superman, Shazam, War Machine, Spiderman, Vision, Wanda and a whole host of others do exactly the same thing. The movie "Chronicle" explains it very well by stating "as long as you see things coming they cannot hurt you, because of the barrier." Explains why Iron Man (for example) on rare occasion has bullet holes in his suit...didnt see them coming. Anti gravity is a weaponized misnomer meant to keep people ignorant, what you mean to say is directional levitation due to controlled vibrations of the body. Some may also call it tactile telekinesis.

People do the same thing and there are quite a few studies on exactly that. "Dont P1ss your life (life force) away." "Flushing your life down the toilet." Depending on how "talented" one is they may even get a gold medal.

The "shock and awe" tactic actually fits the Jericho well as when Tony introduces it he said he likes weapons that only need to be fired once.

Iron Man's armor has Inertial dampeners. This is one more piece of impossible technology that makes the suit work. That's why he can survive a collision with an airplane's wing. It's also why he can jet into the atmosphere w/o visible signs of stress from G forces. Like the arc reactor it's never fully explained.

@eugene8498

Tony has to have a suit dimension in there. v^2 - v0^2 = 2 * a * S, simple as that. No damper that could fit into the space in a suit could have damped the g forces from such collision and radical change of speed. So mathematically impossible technology indeed.

Another section that deals with impact is when the flares deployed and the missile goes off right behind Stark and the blast catches and knocks him forward even more, while he wasn't at a stand still being launched by explosions in movies is probably one of the most common underestimations of inertia in movies. We can assume the suit protects against a lot of heat transfer, the quick pressure change and possibly even a little of the impact, but based on how he moved forward most likely he was close enough to the blast to experience the delta between his speed and the explosions speed in acceleration, which is likely enough to smash his brain against the inside of his skull or cause "shell shock" (we'll assume the suit also prevents whiplash since it can support his neck, good luck supporting the neurons in the brain)

One thing not addressed in the physical mechanics of IM is the frailty of the organism in the suit.

the boot thrusters use air, convert it to plasma and directed downwards to fly (at least that is what the comic book says it should do for the first few suit models) the hand repulsors are plain super science (they act like same polar magnets facing each other but it works for everything Tony feels like pushing away)

hello there verified man

The repulsors (propulsion) works by taking in air, turning it into a plasma (free nuclei and electrons floating around), then taking the free electrons from the plasma and colliding them to form muons which are about 200 times heavier than electrons but also have a half-life (time to decay to half the number of particles) of a few microseconds, and shooting them out the ends by means of electromagnetic propulsion similar to an ion drive. To make a man fly with a particle drive you would need an insane amount of energy to accelerate the particles to within a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the speed of light. Luckily he has like 3 large scale nuclear reactors' worth of energy strapped to his chest.

The most realistic part I've seen in the first Iron Man is Mark 1 or the suit he uses to get out of his imprisoned area. It actually makes perfect sense and is 100% possible to make in real life. There is no real unreal parts in the suit. It has flamethrowers on the ends of where Tony is able to grab onto, it has a jet pack installed in the boots a little around the torso I believe, and it has the most complex design. It's one of those designs that would be a nightmare to draw but when you are just making it out of scratch like Tony did, it makes perfect sense to be a little crazy looking. Either way I do find Mark 1 to be the only plausible suit to make besides the flying prototype that was just silver.

-Only some flare countermeasures put out intense heat to ‘distract’ infrared misso led. -Titanium is used very sparingly in aircraft structures because it’s incredibly heavy. Mainly used in high stress or high heat environments. -ALL aircraft carry out flight control built-in tests or pre-flight tests before take off. -Ejection seats are fitted with barometric sensors to deploy the parachute and release the seat at predetermined altitudes. -Stealth aircraft not only absorb radar signals but can also deflect and scatter them away.

The science is pretty realistic. Ironman with 1-2cm armor getting hit by a tank and nothing happens is far from realistic engineering.

Good thing it’s a movie

Thanks for the video, I appreciate your review. After watching it, I do have a couple questions from a layman's point a view. 1. You say the warheads that come out of the missile are not guided. But they come out in all different direction and orient themselves in a fairly uniform pattern. What could cause that if not for onboard guidance? Plus, they have propulsion which would seem to suggest some level of guidance. 2. Tony tests the control surfaces on his suit so we know they are there. But would they be effective considering the shape and position? Lastly, I was also a bit disappointed in how the Iron Man suit came out unscathed after tearing off a wing from a military jet.

1. Stabilizing isn't necessarily mean guidance. They could have some sort of gyroscope that orients them without specifically guiding them to a target. 2. normally it wouldn't be too effective but because he flies on his belly and very fast any small control surface would/ thrust vectoring would be effective. Even if they're not in an optimal location. Great questions!

@reaganharder1480

A close look at the individual "warheads", they really look like just smaller missiles, complete with fins and propulsion and everything. Fins (when properly designed/placed) will stabilize a projectile quite passively, and propulsion in no way means a projectile is guided. And what constitutes "guided" is a bit of a fuzzy term anyway if we're being honest. If I recall correctly, the German V1 in WW2 was "guided" by a gyroscope and possibly a magnetic compass, and were easily knocked off course by carefully tipping the wing with your own aircraft. That said, quite likely this missile system is designed to establish a ballistic trajectory with a guided carrier rocket, and then split into the individual warheads to strike across a wide area for something like lethal area denial.

Yeah, that was my biggest complaint too with those seats. The ACES II system is designed without the pilot in mind because they will most likely be unconscious flying at those speeds. If it's a low speed, low opening ejection, it won't be as bad, but still could be G LOC regardless. Having worked directly with Egress for several years on the F-15's at Kadena, I can also say that those helmets and masks are incorrect for the F-22. The mask would be a MBU-20/P and each helmet is actually designed specifically for each pilot using laser measurements. They also have a ton of HUD inside the visor of the helmets to give the pilots way more SA. Granted, they can't show all that since a lot of it is secret, but they could have done a slightly better job with it. Overall though an excellent movie! And a fantastic video!

I am not sure about the aero dynamics of the Iron Man suit. Assuming you can build thrusters, power source, navigation system, etc. into the suit to make it float in the air and move it around. But how would you be able to fly it the way Tony does? There are MAIN thrusters at the back, under the feet, on the palms; I find it hard to image how he can fly Superman style (without arms extended to the front). How does the placement of the thrusters create enough lift if he were to fly Superman style? I tend to believe a suit like that would allow the person to fly Green Goblin style (in an upright position) instead.

His suit is made out of gold-titanium alloy. In July 2016, researchers have discovered that a titanium-gold alloy is up to 4 times harder than titanium.

Back in the 1960s, the U.S. military actually experimented with so-called "man-amplifier" technology, including powered armor and a flight harness. The technology was abandoned because it didn't work well enough to be practical; the flight harness, for example, could only stay aloft for very short periods, because they were limited in the amount of fuel they could carry.

Pretty much everything Iron Man does violates physics. Some of his maneuvers would instantly scramble his inner organs. He would need some type of inertia cancelling technology to survive much of what he does. Add in being hit with munitions capable of taking out aircraft and ground targets, and there is no way a layer of armor would negate the kinetic force hitting the suit without transferring in through the occupant.

If Im remembering correctly. I think the Mark 2 suit (the silver one) was actually a real suit they made for the movie, not cgi. At least for the scene before he starts flying.

I never actually thought about the "propulsion" aspect of it. You're right, even if that arc reactor is a mini-nuclear power station that can generate enough energy for Ironman to use however he pleased, you can't propel yourself with energy alone - it's not like he can shoot energy out of his hands and feet and use them to fly. But, since we are talking about a movie where arc reactor is a thing, why not mini jet engines all throughout his body - channels that suck in air and push it out of his feat and hands with such force that propulsion happens? It's not something that would cause light/fire like in the movies but is it really any crazier than the idea of an arc reactor?

The fundamental science of Ironman is that he died as soon as he hard landed one time. At least the suit contained the goo that his body liquified into as soon as all the g forces tore his body to pieces inside of it. The scene where Ironman is flying along at 400 miles per hour ,the tank shell hits his suit and he barrels into the ground at 500 or so miles per hour is hilarious. First off,hell of a shot, tank crew. Secondly,from initial explosion,Ironman is a spam sandwich inside that suit. But it's a comic book story.

0:17 Despite what some of the internet will tell you, this is not Iron man. This is from a TV movie called 'Exo man' from 1977. It has no relation to Marvel or Iron man.

Prior service military and aviation nerd here. I have a few nitpicks. The Jericho is pretty much a small MLRS or Multi-Launch Rocket System that dispenses some sort of submunitions which seem extremely energetic for the size, The larger 227mm rockets in use by the US don't even come close to massive fireballs everywhere. I agree I love the additions of reaction control nozzles and flight surfaces on the suit but would be extremely difficult to implement on a human shaped suit. The F-22's can lock on AIM-9X's on a target with no obvious (jet exhaust) heat source, AIM-9's are 'heat seekers', So it would rely on air friction and whatever little heat comes off of his 'engines', Its like shooting down a sidewinder with a sidewinder, pretty tough. Obviously he wouldn't survive the impact from the wing, The G-forces alone would turn Tony into pink mist. The M61A2 Vulcan on the F-22 does not sound like a machine gun but rather a brrrrrt. The Arc Reactor is a McGuffin.

The thing that always lost me from a reality aspect was when he would take a hit from something (direct hit from a tank round for example) and be complete unscathed. Regardless of whether the suit material withstood the blow, the human inside the shell would be completely destroyed. His organs, brain, ect would just be destroyed from the impact alone.

Engineering wise, I would give this movie a C, on the fact alone that Tony would be mush inside the suit, pretty much from the first trials, let alone the rest of the movie mistakes.
