I miss our ludicrous future!

Love comfort youtube. My recent favorite is Wristwatch Revival. Marshall's voice is super easy to listen to, he does a great job of explaining what he's doing, and he does some impressive camera work considering how delicate and miniscule some of the work is. His hands and tools rarely get in the way of seeing what's going on. It's educational if you want to pay close attention but it can also serve as an interesting background video where you get to see a busted up watch come back to life over the course of 30ish minutes.

Loving Tim asking why he does not record locally. Made my day! 🤣

2/3 of a Podcast, still way more awesome than most others!

A crew singing kumbaya as they go round the dark side of the moon is an awesomely funny idea. TIM, you gotta make that happen, for shitsngiggles. watching all the worlds news channels leading that as a headline would be so funny.

I literally don't have a single friend in real life who remembers Flight of the Navigator. Yet you both rewatched it in the last several years. Trivial details like that create a connection that makes me feel more like I'm watching old friends or my cousins having a chat, rather than two strangers on a podcast.

At first I thought "OMG he's got an intervieuw with Tim Dodd" Then I remembered they had a podcast together which I watched religiously the second I noticed it coming out. 😂😅

59:20 - I miss the "promise of the Space Shuttle". It was supposed to be flying from 2-3 different launch locations nearly *WEEKLY* by 1990. (Heck, SpaceX still hasn't surpassed the "shortest time between reflights of an orbital crewed spacecraft" record set by Atlantis - STS-61-B flew only 50 days after the landing of Atlantis' previous mission, STS-51-J in 1985.) They even were planning that they'd have to replace each orbiter every 10 years, because they'd have flown their maximum 100 missions each in that time. Needless to say, that didn't happen. As a kid, I was obsessed with the SR-71, X-15, and Space Shuttle.

I'd love to see you guys and Ben do a podcast discussing your journey from how you first got started to where you are now. Things you did well, things you did wrong, and any lucky breaks along the way. You could call it "Our Ludicrous Past!"

Fun collab this is epic. Can't wait to see Tim fly around the moon.

45:00 that's why you got on Dear Moon, Tim - because someone expressing the excitement of it all is something we've always needed, not just on the ground, but in on board.

Love both these guys! Glad they can share time like this!

Yes!!! So pumped for this!!

A most excellent chat...thanks guys 👍

Listening to this like in the pub after work with your mates. I hope they bring back OLF even if it was only a couple of times a year.

Exciting day, great topic!

whistlindiesel! So cool hearing Tim Dodd get Cody's comedy genius!

Tim, So awesome to hear you talk so positively about Formula 1. You have an unparalleled passion for rockets and you have to hear the Formula 1 cars Live. They are incredible. Looking forward to Starship Launch Attempt!!!

You are correct Tim about nuclear reactors: the reason why they do not release any radioactivity into the atmosphere is because the radioactive elements never leave the primary circuit, only the heat is transferred to the secondary circuit. Also in a PWR only the secondary circuit water is allowed to boil, as it is what drives the turbines. The primary circuit in a PWR is kept from boiling via insane pressures. The BWR primary circuit is allowed to boil but in a limited way, a measure mostly designed to lower costs but it brings its obvious own problems. Molten salt reactors can forgo this entirely since their fuel is within a salt mixture that is already liquid, and they have a thousand degrees of liquid range meaning they can actually operate at really high temperatures and atmospheric pressure while staying liquid.

Time and Joe!!! Let’s gooooooooooooo

I love the wise Joe Scott.

good to hang with you guys again

So I watch NSF regularly and sone other livestreams, but Tim is the best commentator. Deep knowledge, patience, and doesn’t talk down to the audience at all. I kind of wish all the space related channels would get together for the big launches so that you can get the best of everyone.

YAY!!! JoeDodd time!

Forgot this channel existed...not had any pop ups for it in months and now this one suddenly in feed

I really miss these conversations

been missing stuff from Tim lately. I know he's putting up vids, but I always want more :P

Flight of the navigator is fantastic

nice one chaps :-)

Loved the video with Tim. Unless I am missing something, you didn't put a link to your own new web site in the notes. Hopefully you can update the notes easily. Thanks

1:18:01 I think it is totally different to be there. And I don't think that a better place would cost more than the travel from the US. But who knows. I was only once at a race. It was in Hungary where I live. We were sitting at a corner where you could see different parts of the track + there was a screen before us so you could also watch the broadcast. The sound was amazing. Especially the other formula series cars (there was a another race on that weekend) what still had that iconic high pitch sound. But they were so loud I had to realize that maybe the new engine sound of F1 was not that bad eventually. At least my ears were spared.

Go Starship! ✨✨

This is the best version of the Our Ludacris Future Podcast host lineup!

Just wanted to say on Tim talking about Verstappen in F1: He is NOT a jerk or teriible guy. He's very nice BUT he's VERY focussed. And Dutch people are usually very direct in discussions. We usually don't mean to be a jerk or anything, we're just open and straightforward/honest. And yes, we're usually not the kind of people to sugercoat stuff when we don't fell like it. Never forget that most Europeans have to talk a non-native language to generally get their thoughts across. That also changes a person's way to express themselves.

The dragon dock to starship seems the most expeditious means of accomplishing starship moon/mars flight

This is awesome! OLF without the other guy! :D

WOOP WOOP!!!!

What a cold open

YASSS!!!!!!

26:32 when Tim mentioned WhistinDiesel I audibly gasped, my worlds colliding 1:10:52 Formula 1 too??? whattt

I'm going to be honest, I didn't understand the first 32 seconds of that but I loved watching it! Don't dumb anything down👐I'll just try to smart it up 😅

proposal- Joe guest hosts Everyday Astronaut for Tim's launch :p

OLF reunion would be nice for this Monday

Regarding Blue Origin bragging about 4000s of test time. For some context, 27 raptor engines fired for over 4 minutes on the Starship test launch a few days ago. That's 6480 seconds of test time.

Flight of the Navigator!!

26:04 Jesus everything Joe said he watches for comfort viewing is the same things I watch when I’m not watching science videos.

19:25 - Okay, to dive way too deep… CompactFlash aka "CF" is really just an IDE/ATA hard drive protocol flash memory in a tiny card. CFast just swaps out the older IDE/ATA protocol for SATA. If you look at the connector end, it even looks like a tiny SATA connector. There is an even newer version "CFExpress" which is direct NVMe PCI Express interface in the same basic form factor. SD cards have similar - SDExpress is NVMe / PCI Express in an SD card form factor. Unlike CF, though, SDExpress cards have backward compatibility so you can read them in a regular SD card reader. (Albeit at significantly reduced speeds.)

12:45 "Last call for boarding, last call for boarding, calling Mr Dodd!"Please board now!" Meanwhile, tim: "Yeahhhhhh yeahhhhhhhh!!!! woowwww no wayyyyyyyyyy" and thus misses the call.

❤️

Oh Tim, some of us are just wanderers. There's a purpose for it in humanity. Jaguars in the far south suddenly get an instinct turned on and cross the americas to wander mexico. All sorts of animals have it, and us humans too. And look at you Tim, for all of us who itch to do it, youre going to have that instinct empowered to wander around the moon and back. Thanks for feeding our dreams. Some of us will someday wander to Mars and the Jovian moons.

Recap by Tammy AI

My folks were so caring that they kept trying to buy me seats on rockets from the day I was born. Each time something launched without me onboard I noticed tears in their eyes.

Maybe Tim can sell the van to NSF, they seem to be expanding fast enough they might have a use for it😁

What is it about the rug cleaning videos Joe? They’re the best!

Hydrogen going through a nuclear rocket does not, in itself, get radioactive. Instead, radioactive materials from the reactor gets into the stream and carried into the exhaust. One of the biggest advantages to dropping a rocket off an aircraft is increased ISP from being at 40kft, which, at 1/4 atmo, is basically close enough to being in vacuum as to able to use vacuum optimized nozzles. This makes for much smaller rockets for the same payload. But it doesn't scale well. However, I much prefer the black horse spaceplane launch profile. A spaceplane with 2 Sabre engines flying a black horse profile would have twice the payload of a Skylon using the same fuel mass.

Hey Joe, been down the glass blowing rabbit hole yet? That's my guilty pleasure

Professional Blackmagic Design Studio Camera 4K Pro G2 cameras can stream 4k and zoom over 10gb rj45. So all you'd need is a 10gb nic, or thunderbolt adapter for your mac, and a 10gb poe switch, and you could Stream up to 8 cameras to OBS. 😅 still might be difficult to work out the kinks though. (edited to latest camera name with the current model.)

Stoke space needs to just merge. The concept they have that's worth caring about is their re-entry tech. They should just merge with some launch provider, and then they'll integrate their re-entry tech to the existing platform.

1:44 what's the link to the OFT video?

I’m glad you guys dump the other guy from ludicrous future 🎉

Tim how do you feel, Scarred out of my shorts lol

I’ve just started reading a book ( So You’re Going To Space ! )

The NERVA was supposed to replace the J2 so it was supposed to be lifted with the Saturn V. Of course, the N-1 never made it so... it had to be launched on a smaller rocket.

It's only two hours long, because they don't have to explain the difference between starship and starliner to Ben.

OLF podcast was so good. You guys should restart that.

You can become a chef and lose your weekend spontaneousness for the rest of your life

Jeremy Hanson’s chin would be an awesome name for a band.

👍

The new studio makes u look older lol 😂

Olf was the best… uggg miss it

It's literally ironic, that much must be true

Bring back OLF!

You couldn't get Scott Manley for the trifecta?!

Capricorn one

I watched Troll 2 in college and it was an insanely funny horrible movie lol

I would be very apprehensive at this point.😬

Ben should of made a special appearance.

I don’t think radiator is the most correct term for it. Heat exchanger is better, I think.

JSX Dallas to Austin as little as $129

Maybe is shark? 🦇 🦈

Hey Ternary, There Are 300 Occurrences Of Number 2 In 1000 3-Digit Number Combinations So, ~ 1 In 3 Chance Your Gonna Say "2"?!?

I wonder if Joe or Tim have watched Formula E?

Olf when?

16:00 Outa here

A pair of spacers. 😅. You don't want to know what that means in Ireland.😂

Only 3.1k views? That is criminal. Amazing just listening to you guys chat. We miss Ben! Hope he is doing well!

Does Tim have a pup? Is he named Tim Dogg?

Bring back OLF

Netflix cracked down on sharing passwords and it disables using vpns to watch.

2/3 of the trio but feels like 9/10

Where's the TARDIS 😢

Tim lost me when he brought up F1. He reeled me back in in under five minutes.

But #WhenOrbit?

1:28:50 Tim just forgot the whole world full of governments with their military wings possibly wanting their payload NOT to leave their country before launched to orbit :) @ virgin orbit.

Joe...try Formula - e instead. 👍

I watch men of bulldozers shows. Especially a farm pond making series.

Tim, if you want to go to an F1 race the correct way, as a guest of a team rather than the corporate BS, get in touch ...

WHERE IS BEN

where is Ben buddy???????

It'd be better if Timmeh is on this flight. At least Elon wouldn't have to continue... 1) ...worrying if Timmeh's gonna self-asphyxiate himself a 3rd time in a spacesuit. 2) ...avoiding Timmeh's cringe man-crush. 3) ...changing his cell number once a month from Timmeh's hourly calls saying, "Wutcha doin??" 4) ...having Mary constantly chasing down, beating and arresting Timmeh in the BocaChicaGirl mini-van, for trespassing and committing "Mopery". 😳 😂
