Join us, and we'll show you why is so hard really to reach Pluto and Proxima Centauri. We explain the rocket equation, New Horizons, gravity assists, RTGs, signal delay, interstellar propulsion, laser sails, and why slowing down may be the hardest problem in space travel. How hard is it really to reach them? We also explore the rocket equation, interstellar propulsion concepts like nuclear pulse propulsion and laser sails, Breakthrough Starshot, and the one problem almost nobody talks about: slowing down when you arrive. -- DISCUSSIONS & SOCIAL MEDIA Commercial Purposes: insanecuriositybusiness@gmail.com Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@insanecuriosity Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/insanecuriosity Instagram: https://instagram.com/insanecuriositythereal Twitter: https://twitter.com/insanecurio Facebook: https://facebook.com/InsaneCuriosity Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/insane-curiosity-46b928277/ Our Website: https://insanecuriosity.com/ -- Credits: Ron Miller, Mark A.
