Space Exploration and NASA Colonization Plans, Documentary on Our Future Voyages to the Universe

Published 2022-12-31
Is it time for another 'giant leap?'
In 2080, NASA scientists believe we can and must send people to Jupiter's and Saturn's moons.
Space Travel Timeline of NASA:
Exoplanet robotic missions and base camps on the Moon in the (late) 2020s.
A crewed mission to Mars is planned for the late 2030s.
Robotic missions to Tau Ceti (11.9 light-years away) in the 2030s.
In the 2040s, robotic missions are launched to the TRAPPIST-1 system 40 light-years away.
Robotic missions to distant stars in the 2050s.
In the 2060s, a crewed mission will be launched to the Asteroid Belt between Mars and Jupiter.
Mission to Jupiter (probably Callisto because it is sufficiently removed from Jupiter's intense radiation fields) in the 2070s.
Crewed missions to Saturn's moons (likely Titan and/or Enceladus) in the 2080s.
We will conduct a crewed mission in 2250 to locate exoplanets such as Proxima Centauri (4.2 light years away).
In 2300, a robotic mission is launched to TRAPPIST-1, a system 40 light-years away.
A crewed mission to distant stars halfway to the Milky Way's center in the late 2400s.
Off-world colonization is a fascinating prospect, but it also carries a dire warning about humanity becoming a multi-world species.

    Thanks for sharing this massage, congratulations nassa for exploration and colonization
  • Mars mission in the LATE 2030's?!? Frankly I will be supremely disappointed and surprised if we don't land on Mars before 2030.
  • @JackDivision
    Such quality content guys, thanks and happy new year !
  • @nerdglider
    It’s always funny seeing star citizen concept art in videos like these lol
  • @monicamattox72
    terraforming...exoplanet robotic missions...terraform Mars....Trappist One System, Alpha Centauri and beyond....I vote with the HUMANS.... :)
  • Very impressed with this video. I have always been interested in astronomy and physics. It was things like this that drove me to enter those professions. Thank you for feeding my insatiable curiosity about the universe and the wonders that we discove
  • @KingOfPatiala
    I love this channel. No crazy background sound effects or music. I like these compared to others that have useless music. I listen to these while I am awake and at night. Puts me right to sleep.

    Fun fact: Uranus is colder than Neptune , even though it is closer to the Sun.
  • @JBrd79
    But, is Sedna 3 times further out than Neptune or not???
  • what about the human species becoming a multi world species needs a "Dire warning" DTTV?
  • so what does everyone think about the likelihood of musk using the leo mass cap of starship to construct an orbital shipyard? to remove the need for planetary pollution, explore various new ship designs, specific vacuum propulsion systems etc...
  • @lightartis228
    you need 3 things to be able to travel from between different solar systems and stuff: 1)freeze sleep system that would preven you from getting old 2)artificial gravity that would prevent your health from going down the crapper over long periods of time 3)ai advanced enough to control and self repair ship for many years while humans would be sleeping... once those 3 things gets invented technically any part of universe will be within reach for humans...
