Don’t worry about being “simplistic!” That’s the level I work on best and enjoy the most.
Lander power on Venus? Perhaps a Sodium Sulphur battery where the electrolyte needs to be molten; it could start working after warming up on the surface! Is there wind on Venus? If so a wind turbine could recharge the battery, only a gentle breeze required in the thick atmosphere.
I've got an interview coming in a couple of days to talk about extreme probes on Venus.
You had asked about a conversation about why I joined your channel awhile back. I haven't responded because I didn't specifically know. I had to watch more and think about it. So far this is what I think: I like well done science based programing. I also like interviews that are well chosen and well done. Your channel does both well. This is simplistic, but a general overview for now. At some point I will comment in more detail and also have some suggestions. For now: Well Done Mr. Cain.
This was such a fun and mind stretching interview. Thank you so much. And that you again for the visit we had on Friday.
Agreed, it was fantastic.
What I like about your channel is intelligent informed information. Especially the interviews. It's not that I might be particularly interested but that it is always intelligent and informed science.
Thanks a lot. I'm glad you're enjoying them.
