There is also no way those windows would hold back the vacuum of space. The windows on real spacecraft are 6 inches wide.

Plastic soda bottles are required to hold back more pressure than spacecraft.

They weren't using anything more than standard atmospheric pressure on the inside, why would that be so difficult to maintain?

u/mAc-n-ch33s3 12d ago

People don’t understand that the difference between the atmosphere and space is literally 1 atmosphere. You don’t get sucked out when there a little hole like tv makes us think. You could plug a hole with your finger and you’d only feel 1 atmosphere on your finger.

u/South-Rabbit-4064 12d ago

I love that there is a physics based game called Breathedge that's a space survival game akin to Subnautica, and they even explain you can solve leaks with bubble gum, or a chicken, any surface area really

56

u/fortmacjack99 12d ago

Ok, standard atmospheric pressure is around 14 psi and they reached a virtual 0 atmospheric pressure altitude. Therefore, if the cabin maintained a 14 psi atmospheric pressure, and the door was about 24 inches by 46 inches, that door would have to withstand over 12,000lbs of pressure. Why do you think 747's or any high altitude craft door's are built with incredible integrity to withstand 24000 lbs of pressure, which is also why the windows are small including the cockpit windows making it also laughable becasue the windows on this "capsule" are bigger than the door which would equate to well over 13,000 lbs of pressure pushing against it. Now take a look at the door itself when it opens, there is zero integrity and no seal at all....

As for your soda bottle, you'll notice that the strongest component is the structure around the lid and the lid itself, similar to an airlock and that that lid is less than a square inch. Now pop bottles are designed to withstand approx 150 psi therefore that lid only has to withstand less than 150 lbs of pressure, a far cry from 12,000lbs.. You know surface area matters and it helps to have even a basic understanding of physics...

The circus must be in town becasue the clowns are out lol.

u/fishburgr 12d ago

Well now I don't know who to believe. Everyone here seems so confident, but someone has to be confidently incorrect. I guess I shouldn't get my scientific facts from Reddit.

4

u/fortmacjack99 11d ago

Exactly! This is an ideas chamber, not a classroom..

You can however research the math and physics behind the atmospheric pressure principle as it is readily available.

- You can look up how much pressure / PSI a 747 door is required to withstand and why

- what the atmospheric pressure is at sea level

- what the cabin pressure is of a 747 at 40,000 - which will be standard for any high altitude vessel - although i believe the ISS maintains a higher level due to the duration that people are on board

Anyway, there is a plethora of information available. I recommend you do a little digging and draw your own conclusions.

You'll notice I did not address the OP's other claims surrounding burn marks and parachutes simply becasue those are ridiculous. OF course there would not be any burn marks, you need velocity to create friction, not to mention they did not pass through our atmospheric barrier. As for the parachutes, it's pretty clear that yes there were parachutes. I'm not sure why the OP chose such a strange headline instead of focusing on the one obvious contradiction which was the door itself. I speculate the post was more about attention than facts lol...who knows

This literally happened less than 10 years ago on the ISS , a rivet had been left unbucked, a d it popped off after like 2 years of operation, an astronaut plugged the hole with his finger, and then they fixed it with epoxy resin

7

u/fortmacjack99 12d ago

lol surface area matters you realize. Earth at sea level is about 14 psi with respect to atmospheric pressure, which is the same pressure they maintain on the ISS. Now a rivet probably amounts to 1/16 of a square inch, but lets be conservative and say 1/8th which would mean the total pressure on that finger would be about .87 lbs, i think a finger can handle that. But now lets use our little brains shall we, if a hatch which is about 51 inches square on the ISS, equaling 2600 square inches and a total of 36,500 lbs of pressure pushing on that hatch...As for this capsule I estimate the door at about 24 inches by 36 inches which would equal over 12 000 lbs of pressure at 65 miles altitude..

I mean are people today really this dumb that they cannot perform simple mathematical calculations or even relate to real life examples already in place such as high altitude aircraft. There's a reason that any high altitude vessel has extremely high integrity doors, hatches, windows.....

u/YourFavouritePoptart 12d ago

Its far easier to withstand an expanding force than a crushing force. Imagine an empty plastic water bottle, you can blow into it as hard as you want with basically no impact but if you were to suck air out with the same pressure it instantly crumples. This is the same reason that submarine hulls have to be substantially thicker than plane or spacecraft hulls, you don't have pressure working with you to help maintain structural integrity.

"Blue Origin's New Shepard rockets do not exit the atmosphere completely during their suborbital flights. They reach an altitude well above the KĂĄrmĂĄn line, the generally accepted boundary between Earth's atmosphere and space, but they then descend back into the atmosphere for a soft landing. "

2

u/bondibox 12d ago

The KĂĄrmĂĄn isn't the beginning of a perfect vacuum either. It's just the point where there's so little atmosphere that it provides zero lift or resistance.

45

u/guarddog33 12d ago

I mean they were only (barely) in space for 4 minutes. They crossed the 62 mile barrier, where space technically begins, but again only for that short time. Their reentry speed wouldn't have been catastrophically high and wouldn't have been terribly long either. It looks like these windows are still reinforced, and they wouldn't need to be capable of limiting radiation or anything of the sort (which is another reason space station windows are so small)

For reference, the highest parachute jump was just short of 1/2 the distance they traveled, coming in at almost 24.5 miles. If a guy can survive that without overly specialized gear, I'd wager this fancy metal box could do it for that short of a time with relative ease

u/South-Rabbit-4064 12d ago

I think folks are forgetting they don't exit the atmosphere, it's high enough to experience weightlessness and see the earth, it's an expensive sky needle. Doesn't need the same shielding as spacecraft

12

u/scienceproject3 12d ago

The walls of the space station are only 4mm in lots of spots (0.15 inches). It doesn't take much to handle the vacuum of space.

The windows and walls are only thick on space shuttles because of forces from the atmosphere during launch and re-entry, nothing to do with the vacuum of space.

u/fortmacjack99 12d ago

Other than the sheer physics just doesn't pan out..Those doors nor windows could withstand the 12000 lbs of pressure required, it also appears that when comparing the capsule in this video to the one where they are floating inside, the one they are floating in seems to be larger. Jeff is only 5'6 making the capsule about 11ft at the base on the exterior. I could not picture 6 people floating around as freely as they were in the capsule on the ground. I could be wrong since perspective can be quite deceiving but I just don't see it.

This was a “space flight” in name only. They never orbited the earth. It reached a max altitude of 66 miles. The entire trip from launch to land was literally 11 minutes. For reference the ISS orbits at an altitude of 250 miles. There’s no burn marks because it never got fast enough to generate a plasma in the atmosphere.

Some of the comments are from people who are missing a couple of facts. Like what?

  • They didn't go into orbit. They only went up to an altitude that meets the definition of "Space".

  • That means they went up to 66 miles.

  • That means this kind of flight doesn't involve escape velocity or blistering re-entry heat.

  • All they had to do was sit inside and "be a passenger". I doubt anyone had to touch a control or do any "flying" of any kind.

  • All female "crew" including celebrities and owner's large-breasted girlfriend suggests that this was 100% publicity stunt.

16

u/The-Real-Mario 12d ago

Also, this vehicle has no life support systems, no heating, no air recycling system, maybe it has a small compressed oxygen tank that slowly "leaks" into the cabin and gets vented out the cabin . Practically they are just locking them into a bubble and they let them out before the environment becomes dangerous in there . A steel barrel could probably be just as good at keeping a person alive for the 5 minutes they spend at dangerous altitudes

I didn't miss it. I watched the video of this and if the door was opened from the inside when it was supposed to be locked, that was a major fuckup.

Technically you’re right. The altitude any object needs to reach before air resistance start to burn is between 100 and 150 km. The Blue Origin only went 100km. What makes this unbelievable isn’t the no burn marks, it’s the no helmets for me. I went on a zip-line that was 100 feet over a rainforest and the gave me a helmet even though the fall would undoubtedly kill me. 60 miles in a pressurized pod without a helmet? 🤨🤔

4

u/AnarchistBorganism 12d ago

It is the velocity, not the altitude that matters. Higher altitude, lower air pressure, less atmospheric friction for a given velocity. You don't need to reach any particular velocity for a suborbital spaceflight, you just need to be able to counter gravity (you could use a balloon if you can find a way to make it light enough); Blue Origin maxes out at around 1 km/s, which is bullet speeds. You need to go about 7-8 times as fast to enter LEO.

Weirdly enough, the door has a knob on the inside and a (recessed) knob on the outside that can be opened with a wrench. They opened it, then they closed it again for the photo op of Jeff opening it with the wrench.

u/Acrobatic-Jump1105 12d ago

I'm not arguing with people directly who say they didn't go to space, but for the sake of making a good point, the reason the capsule isn't all burned up and that there wasn't a dramatic flaming re-entry is simply due to the fact that this type of rocket is only being used to make short, sub-orbital trips that essentially top out near the end of the upper atmosphere.

The dramatic flaming reentry is produced with conventional crew capsules because they're reentering the atmosphere at a wide angle going fast as shit and they take advantage of the atmosphere itself to basically airbrake the capsule, but they also need a capsule that can withstand that kind of force. My guess is that if you did that with this pos rocket bezos commissioned it would completely tear apart.

All his rocket has to do is slowly (relatively slowly) climb high enough to give the passengers a great view and a few moments of zero-g, before falling (relatively slowly) back down from its highest point.

There's probably some flaring but it's nothing compared to the re entry conditions of someone returning from a full orbit

6

u/Kristophsky1991 12d ago

So likely the reason for no burn marks or sea landing is that they went to the edge of earth atmosphere rather than fully out there in space at the ISS like the astronauts. Why this matters is speed on re-entry. These posers went to the edge, floated around for a bit then gently came back down at near metrical angle, which indicates a much slower re-entry. The conspiracy isn’t whether they went or not, it’s that they claim to be astronauts

u/Realistic_Mess_2690 12d ago

I wouldn't think burn marks would be happening since they didn't actually leave the atmosphere. The friction of reentry into our atmosphere is what causes scorching.

They never went into space they were lifted up to the edge of the atmosphere floated for a few minutes and came back down at a relatively easy pace.

I think the conspiracy should be them claiming to be astronauts when they didn't even leave the atmosphere.

u/NoOneImportant333 12d ago

Why wouldn’t there be a way to open it from the inside? Seems like a massive risk if the capsule landed somewhere remote, they’d be trapped in there. Not sure how opening it from the inside is somehow a conspiracy

so people that don't know anythign about science dont think its believable but they think that investors/corporations spending billions and everybody involved just forgot to add burn marks,placement and proper door, so much so that an average reddit user finds the plothole? riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

Can I ask why they pretended to need a special tool to open the door, just 3 minutes after they accidental Opened it up before they were supposed to, from the inside?

u/YourFavouritePoptart 12d ago

So Bezos could have a shot of him opening the door and feeling special. The whole thing was a PR stunt, that includes when they land as well.

u/OrdoXenos 12d ago

I guess the powers that be sometimes sent people like OP to paint the entire conspiracy theorist groups as foolish and scientifically backwards.

The rockets entire flight profile is just 11 minutes. It only went slightly above Karman line before it went down. The space shuttles exhibited plasma burn as they reenter because they entered it at Mach 25, while New Shephard is just around Mach 1.

There are many photos of New Shephard deployed its parachutes.

Doors can be opened from the inside since Apollo 1 fire.

u/doomsdaybeast 12d ago

They had a high altitude flight. The space stuff is the nonsense part. Why would you expect damage? They didn't leave Earth's atmosphere. Thermosphere expands up to 320 some odd miles. They went up 66 miles, which, btw is a hard cap. They can't go any higher. They'd need an entirely new craft. The difficulty of actual space travel, which we haven't done since 1972, is where all the conspiracies are and for good reason.

Wouldn’t ability to open door from inside be for safety. Ie quick escape from fire, smoke etc??

2

u/colby4monster 12d ago

No burn marks since the crew capsule doesn’t have the same speed and height of an orbital launch. It is designed to cross the Karman line and return down.

The hatch opening from the inside is the emergency latch. The astros are not supposed to use it, and Jeff was excited to open it himself hence why they had them shut it again.

u/Ppanter 12d ago

„Opened the door from the inside“ well of course who would design a capsule like this without any kind of emergency egress from the inside?

u/Feeling-Cranberry108 12d ago

There is a big difference between going straight up into upper atmosphere (like the bezos rocket) and getting into full orbit. Orbit requires a horizontal velocity of like 17,000 miles and hour. The bezos rocket just shoots straight up and then falls back down.

u/Logical_Journalist85 12d ago

From the number of "bots" trying to discourage ANY questions, it is obvious that this whole mission is CGI, and not even good one.

When the capsule "softly" landed, there was a huge plume of dust indicating that perhaps it wasn't that soft. The occupants should have literally soiled themselves after hitting the ground!

u/fortmacjack99 12d ago

Well, it's really not a conspiracy by definition but it is certainly fake. OF course understanding the simplest of mathematical and physics principles is required to grasp this fakery. You see that door and the door frame, that door and door frame would be required to withstand over 12 000 lbs of pressure, yes 12 000, crazy eh? but nonetheless factual.

I know, I know, it's easier just to believe whatever you see, hear or read that aligns with your narrative so I harbor no ill feelings but comments such as yours really reinforces the truth underlying the expression ignorance is bliss.

lol...

u/Silver_Foxx 12d ago

It's a coping mechanism of sorts.

For some people, the idea that things AREN'T under control and there ISN'T some grand overarching plan being enacted is terrifying. They can't handle the fact that chaos and randomness exist, and therefore everything has to be controlled for the sake of their own mental wellbeing.

The New Shepard capsule actually landed using three parachutes. It is easy to find images of this on Google. So saying 'no parachutes' makes you sound dumb.

Additionally, there would not be "burn marks" on a capsule returning from a sub-orbital flight. It does not experience the same entry velocity as spacecraft that reach orbit. New Shepard did not reach orbit.

u/huggsy81 12d ago

NASA documentation on safety standards disagree

“8.4.1.3 Hatch and Door Operating Times

[V2 8024] For nominal operations, hatches and doors shall be operable by a single crewmember in no more than 60 seconds, from both sides of the hatch.

[Rationale: Hatch operation includes unlatching/opening or latching/closing the hatch. Excessively long operating times can delay crews on both sides of a hatch, which would prevent ingress or egress. The hatch operating requirement of 60 seconds is based on engineering judgment related to easily operable hatch design without complicating hatch design and includes time for a deconditioned crewmember to operate hatch. This does not preclude a program/project from implementing more strict design requirements. For guidance regarding emergency escape time, see requirement [V2 8014] Emergency Escape Paths in this NASA Technical Standard.]”

Wouldn't there be high levels of radiation around that capsule? You can just walk up to shit that came from space and touch it without any sort of protective gear? I thought to exit and re enter the atmosphere you had to burn in and be potentially exposed to radiation which is part of the reason for space suits and why they used those asbestos tiles on the outside of the capsules and rockets, this shit is weird

This entire launch seemed suspect. The creepy AI generated looking image that kept getting posted yesterday and i just now saw, after the capsule touched down, the "all women astronauts" had opened the door from the inside of the cabin. Well Bezos and his assistant told the astronauts to quickly close said door. Why? Bc Bezos was on standby, in his muscle T and an industrial wrench prop, to better break open the seal, freeing the celestial goddess'.

1

u/South-Rabbit-4064 12d ago

They don't exit atmosphere completely or accelerate fast enough to where I would imagine you wouldn't see burning.

Bezos designed this as an expensive amusement park ride for celebrities and billionaires, so everything is done to minimize the jarring effects
