Escape velocity?

Sometimes,

I wondered

(c)

how much more would it take

to reach escape velocity?

Here is some information about reaching escape velocity!!

A spacecraft leaving the surface of Earth, for example, needs to be going about 11 kilometers (7 miles) per second, or over 40,000 kilometers per hour (25,000 miles per hour), to enter orbit. Achieving escape velocity is one of the biggest challenges facing space travel.

But who was talking about spacecraft?

So, is there a railway line or carpeted road to enter the orbit? :P
Spacecraft is necessary to make a space travel that's why...!!! ;)

So did you get an answer for that wondering question?

That, my friend, is a very closely guarded secret :-)

Ah! Sometimes secrets are good to be disclosed! :P

Its a question full of mystery i guess

You'll know when you reach it!!!

Ah, an optimist!

Sometimes, it's the only way to be!

Escape velocity? It's all in the mind.

Then I am doomed! I lost my mind long ago :-)

i think you need vocation!!! :)
not in Loutraki but in an
island! i think you need 1 week to Mikonos!! :)))

What about a weekend at the Casino here in Loutraki?

mmmm, that is a very very good idea... :)

The picture shows that you are inteligent when you are high. You are calm when you are at low. You wonder brave. And you want flow at escap velocity. I wish your success to escap velocity without changing the momentum. Go fast. Fly high.

"Go fast. Fly high."

I like it!

escape velocity is 24,000 miles per hour.
do the math.

Yeah nearly 40K Km/h! That's huge.

That's how fast it takes to reach orbit.
Once you're in orbit you're halfway to anywhere.

I've heard that you can't even take math with you :-)

you can do math in your head...
can't you?

Not when I'm up really high LoL

It's called evolution in action

I learnt a lot from here..... This is a beautiful write up.
Nice one

Physics being my favorite subject, I loved reading about escape velocity again. That's the really great photography. Thanks for sharing.

Throw a rock up in the air and it will always come back down. Imagine a rocket to be a rock. They will always come back down unless they move fast enough to either go into orbit or get away from the Earth. The question is what is that velocity? (answer: the orbital velocity or the escape velocity)

I think that when people are up there it is very difficult to be aware of the great victory. The velocity of escape is in the take of conscience. I like you logic form with words. Bye partner

Sir from which positi on pic (a) is taken ?all pics are owesome..(b) tells us the beauty of nature.(c) and (d) have some lessons.if we understand.awesome selection.

It is a great view from the sky especially when everything else is at these highs. Unfortunately, not always can it stay this way. We would get too spoiled if we were up there all the time.

In this life, to be free isn't easy, I can even say we are only free at death, but in this life to escape velocity isn't a small task, if that's even possible.

Escape velocity does not depend on the mass. It is the same for all objects on the planet. It depends on the radius and gravitational acceleration.

Escape velocity v=[math”]\sqrt{2gR}[/math”]

take g=9.8 m/s, R=6400 km for Earth

You will get v=11.2 km/s

You are welcome

all photographs are really nice specially the first one :)

Hay sir. .. what's up ...? I hope you are well the reason is lf you not good then you could not post this.
It's good to see your post....☺sir your posts help me a lot.
Bye sir....we will talk again with your new one post.☺

Thequestion now that, can anyone actually escaped it?

It is a general issue not yours only.... Smile

Some questions we will never know the answer. Only ponder the thought and possibilities thereof.

You have a lot of awesome posts, but this is
by far one of your best ones man.

wish you will come round soon..

I wonder strange things when I'm really high too...

hee ;)

EDIT: Oh come on, that was at least moderately amusing ;)

It always takes long time to escape, it's always by lucky

@onceuponatime all image are very creative and photo angle is awesome

Very impressive and a very nice story! Im still yet to get the answers.

Just jump from that height and you achieve that in seconds ;)

I am not sure about velocity but, you will sure escape time looking at those clouds from above.

Hahahaha. Very very fast .
Did you find any answer ?

I often think that too.
You chose very well the pictures.

Love the last phrase. haha

I guess reaching escape velocity can only happen once the cycle of the flesh ends. Remaining high till then is the only escape :) .
I love your photo narratives, @onceuponatime . It is very reflective. Connects you to some very relevant thoughts :)

So, going so high didn’t help!
Do you have to go so fast with high velocity to escape?
Escape from the mundane!?

Many people would beg to experience your mundane for a change!

Give your thoughts a break! Your brain needs a rest!
Just enjoy the view you have in front of you every day!
( I know what you are thinking! You are looking at you feet and toes. Behave now!)
The sea and blue sky! Lots of ice cream, good wine and good friends!

I am trying to make my living on Steemit which is not easy at the moment. However, every cloud has its silver lining. I am glad I am alive to bug you with my comment! Haha!
😂😇🍷

@onceuponatime For a rocket or other object to leave a planet, it must overcome the pull of gravity.

I have heard once you do hit escape velocity, the hard part is re-entry without burning up!!

We ourselves create fetters that hold us back from flying ...
Perhaps you will not read my comment, because so many messages are left for you.
But I want to thank you for your support, thank you for your attention, it really helps me. I wish you peace and good!
