In this week's QA, I wonder if we could use the speed of light to see ourselves in the past, how the Mars rovers clean their solar panels, and if aliens would infect us with their bacteria and viruses.

Hi Fraser! We use massive cosmic bodies to bend light and magnify distant objects, soon using them to observe exoplanets and their atmospheres as they were long ago. I wonder if it could be possible to find rays of light that have left earth long ago and through the curvature of space end up returning to earth with high enough resolution to allow us to look back into the past. Is it completely out of the question?

I want to know who dusts off the solor panels when it gets dusty an it probably does often due to those huge dust storms , hmmmmmm🤔??🙃🤓🤔🙄 ohh👽👾😱😨😍

Imagine the virus’s and bacteria they may unintentionally bring. Could potentially be the end of all life on earth. Also, I hope they have a good immune system for our planetary virus’s and bacteria

I notice that in some space launches that the space craft immediately starts to spin into another direction, I know some course correction is needed for different orbital planes and trajectories. But sometimes it seems like they turn 90 degrees.
Why dont they just build launch platforms in somewhat the correct direction?

When the galaxies merge or slam together, would it be a slow event until things start smashing into each other? Or would some crazy gravity changes rip world's apart and it be a cataclysmic show? In your opinion would it be a galactic reset, would anything survive

Enjoy your videos and Q & A's : i was wondering, with this Mission of colonizing mars in the future, there are some ideas that the domes could have water in them to shield Radiation. How much water is needed to block radiation as in the thickness or width of water to block radiation. Thanks

I was wondering if it was possible to make "bed cylinders" that is partitioned into 2 sleeping areas. With some automatic counterbalancing for mass differences, it may be enough for sleeping in gravity for better health?

If super earths are more massive and have greater gravity wells, might that make space travel much more difficult for intelligent life? Put differently, if we could increase the mass of the earth at what point might it create a physical constraint on space travel?

G'day from Down Under! I am a new subscriber and I am really enjoy your videos Fraser, so thanks for your knowledge and all your hard work. Would there be any point or benefit to launching a telescope into orbit around a planet in the outer solar system like neptune, or even pluto? Or are they too close in regards to current telescopes to really return any befit?

Hello Fraser, quick question: How do you think our advances in Machine Learning, Reinforcement Learning and A.I in general will affect space missions in the near and distant future? Greetings Matthew

Could you get two BFRs joined by long cables and have them spin?
