![]() “As far as my ‘analysis’ of Endurance’s capabilities goes, it was along the following lines:Īssume Endurance is powered by nuclear thermal rockets with a specific impulse of 1,000 seconds. Grant also had this to say about his calculations regarding the Endurance: Here's the video with a filmmaker breaking the moon landing down: Īrticle about classical musicians versus copyright botsĪnother article about classical musicians versus copyright bots PBS article about how the moon landing couldn't be faked with the video/film tech we had in the 1960s: News report about failed Virgin Orbit launchĬoronavirus testing via Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (NSFW for swearing): NASA Selects Blue Origin, Dynetics, and SpaceX Human Landers for ArtemisĪrticle on the launch of China’s crewed space capsule NPR bit about the dust bowls that mentions the footage being used in Interstellar: Rogue waves, relating to Planet #1 (not mentioned in episode, but Caitlin wants you to know she looked it up): Īre floating clouds real, part 2? (Still no)Īre floating clouds real, part 3? (Check the comments, Kip Thorne says this part makes him cringe) Muse’s “Supermassive Black Hole” (This has nothing to do with Interstellar, but Grant sent it to me, and I put whatever is sent to me on the website :) Very cool piece about the research that went into the wormhole and black hole visual effects: Īrticle about the image captured of the black hole that went viral last yearĭiscussion on whether “gentle black holes” exist (yes, yes, I know this is on Reddit, but the top commenter cites Kip Thorne) Rotating Black Holes May Serve as Gentle Portals for Hyperspace Travel More info on Gemini 8, which was kinda sorta the Interstellar docking scene in reverse: In the context of rookies in space, Grant mentioned the Skylab 4 “mutiny.” This article provides a decent introduction: There’s more information on that and every other minute detail of the mission on Apollo in Real Time: Grant mentioned how power and life support were linked in managing Apollo 13 during its return to Earth. Interview with Nobel-prize-winning physicist Kip Thorne, who consulted with Christopher Nolan in the making of Interstellarĭiscussion with physicists on the science of Interstellar (yes, yes, I know this is in The Daily Mail) Does anyone know someone at Netflix we can pitch this to? #TARSandCoop Join our crew of intrepid science friends as they journey into a discussion of rockets, docking, relativity, time, black holes, whatever the heck “the blight” is, and the possibly horrible truth behind this secret science program headed by a bunch of all-American scientists(?)Īlso, Nicole came up for an idea for a TARS and Cooper-themed spin-off television show, complete with theme song, because of course she did. ![]() Some of the science is, well, odd, to say the least. Some of the science is surprisingly good, which makes sense considering that Nolan consulted with actual physicists during the production of the film (Flash writers, take notes). ![]() There is … a lot to unpack in this movie. ![]() It turns out that Caitlin and Nicole have multiple rocket scientist friends!
