We don't need to burrow through the ice in Enceladus and other icy moons. A simple sample-return mission would do. Just fly a probe through a plume, gather one gram or even just one drop of water, and send it back on a fast, tiny rocket. Once in Earth labs we can probably then confirm or rule out any life that might be related to life on Earth.

You're suggesting thousands of stars in a 4 light year space. What kind of gravitational effect would they have on each other? Would they be crashing into each other? When you talk about the need to send a probe to Enceladus, that adds to the list of other desired missions like revisiting Neptune, and others. These $500 million or $1Billion projects that take 10 years to fund, design, and launch, plus the travel time, the amount of science return over the years is soooo slow and expensive. When you consider the recent revolution in cost cutting and launch access to LEO and the miniaturization of capabilities we've seen with cube sats, do you think that a revolution in planetary missions might also be coming? We have solved the physics and engineering on so many different types of probes, are we closer to a mass production that would allow a multiplication in planetary missions? Granted, I do understand the funds are not just to build and launch but also to operate the mission. But maybe that could be streamlined as well. Space X... Sol Sys X! Hi L.... :)

As an aurora chaser/photographer, the section about the solar wind was very interesting. Thanks! Quick correction though (for around 11:20): with fertilizer, the nutrients you are looking for are not carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous, but potassium, nitrogen and phosphorous (N P K)
@IDoNotLikeHandlesOnYT
Жыл бұрын
Another quick correction (for both you and Fraser): the element's name, being a noun, is phosphorus. Phosphorous with an o is an adjective like phosphoric, as in phosphorous acid and phosphorous anhydride (an uncommon name for phosphorus trioxide, because it it's the anhydride of phosphorous acid). Those seem to be the only chemical compound names that word appears in; in more general use, Wiktionary defines it as follows: "1. (chemistry) Of or pertaining to phosphorus. 2. Resembling phosphorus. 3. (chemistry) Of relating to [sic] or containing trivalent phosphorus."

Pedantic point, but, you wouldn't get rich having a white dwarf worth of diamond. The value of diamonds comes from the monopoly on their supply (largely held by the DeBeers company). If you showed up with a huge trove of diamonds you'd just crash the market (likely losing the cost of your investment to bring them to market in the first place) and bankrupt the diamond companies. Probably the only way to really get rich off having a white dwarf worth of diamond is just to obtain a legal claim to it cheaply and sell it off to the diamond companies at a profit.

Is there a chance that a measurement is impacted by a satellite that's _not_ illuminated? I mean, I'm guessing the dimming would be miniscule but maybe it's still important for some measurements. And what about spectroscopy. Those weird elements filtering your light can't be good, can it? I'm asking because an illuminated satellite is at least obvious but one that's not in direct sunlight or that's at an angle where it would only reflect a tiny bit of sunlight into the telescope would be a lot more subtle.
