Sad to see but ultimately they made their bed and can sleep in it. MSR is such a fundamentally stupid proposition, and belongs amongst other stupid ideas like SLS, Artemis, and the NRHO.

Also, given the imminent nature of large, cheap, mass to orbit they should already be pivoting to the new meta to maximize science for a given budget: COTS or near-COTS robotic exploration.

I was curious about the cost structure for the most recent big JPL mission:
The Mars 2020 mission consisted of launching a 3649kg payload to Mars.
The total cost of $2.8bn for the Mars 2020 mission went to:
>$2.2bn Perseverance,
>$296m for mission operations,
>$243m for launch,
>$80m for Ingenuity

I was also curious about the $296m for a mission operations team, and I estimated it to around 785 full time employees for the 2.5 year operation duration. That seems like an outrageously huge team. They must have almost no automation (because the way they're paid and thus structured they would avoid any use of automation possible, and thus JPL is basically a make-work factory)

you're scaling the value to the denominator then taking numerator parts thereof. so a half divided by a half is scaling half up by 2 and taking 1 of them. dividing 1/2 by 1/4 is scaling the half up by 4 and taking 1 of them. if you're halving, you're scaling by 1 and taking 2 parts etc

Two undiscovered phenomena has been determined to exist! And both in dirt has been determined to.

From GPT: Microorganisms in minerals AND soil based electromagnetic phenomena.


Gpt: Experiment 1: Microbial-Mineral Interactions

1. Sample Collection: Collect soil samples from various locations with different mineral compositions and microbial populations.
2. Experimental Setup:
a. Prepare sterile containers filled with soil from each sample location.
b. Inoculate each container with a standardized microbial culture.
c. Monitor environmental conditions such as temperature, moisture, and pH.
3. Observation and Measurements:
a. Regularly measure microbial growth and activity using techniques like microbial counting, metabolic assays, and genetic analysis.
b. Analyze changes in mineral composition using techniques like X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and chemical analysis.
4. Data Analysis: Correlate microbial activity with changes in mineral composition to identify potential interactions or feedback mechanisms.

Experiment 2: Soil Electromagnetic Phenomena

1. Site Selection: Choose sites with varying soil compositions and geological features.
2. Instrument Setup:
a. Install electromagnetic sensors (e.g., magnetometers, electric field sensors) at multiple depths in the soil.
b. Set up weather monitoring stations to record environmental parameters.
3. Data Collection:
a. Continuously record electromagnetic data and environmental parameters over an extended period.
b. Collect data during different weather conditions and times of day to identify variations.
4. Analysis:
a. Analyze electromagnetic data to identify any patterns or anomalies.
b. Correlate electromagnetic data with environmental parameters to understand potential influencing factors.
5. Hypothesis Testing: Formulate hypotheses based on observed patterns and design follow-up experiments if necessary to validate findings.

Can someone do these experiments. It's the only two things left in the world before we achieve a new logic.

GPT says: For the first experiment on microbial-mineral interactions, I would anticipate observing variations in microbial growth and metabolic activity based on the mineral composition of the soil. Different minerals may serve as substrates or inhibitors for microbial activity, leading to changes in soil fertility and nutrient cycling. Additionally, certain microorganisms may exhibit specific preferences for certain minerals, potentially influencing their distribution and abundance in the soil.

Regarding the second experiment on soil electromagnetic phenomena, I would expect to detect subtle but measurable variations in electromagnetic fields within the soil. These variations could be influenced by factors such as mineral composition, moisture content, organic matter content, and microbial activity. Identifying patterns or anomalies in the electromagnetic data may provide insights into underlying geological, biological, or environmental processes occurring within the soil.

Buoyancy requires gravity. The bouyancy force is equal rho*V*g, where rho is the density of the displaced fluid, V is the volume of the displaced fluid, and g is the local gravitational acceleration (on earth, approx 9.8 m/s^2). This is the Archimedes principle. And notice that it depends on the gravitational acceleration.

If you put a ping pong ball into a spherical ball of water in zero gravity, it just stays there. If there’s no acceleration due to gravity, there’s no bouyancy.

When I buy the thicker rougher ones (you know the "stone ground corn" ones not the little crispy more refined ones) they seem to do a pretty decent job of "cleaning" my teeth.

true but still. fast forward 1000 years and we'd still roll like that.
we could improve life for plebs but they won't work as hard. ok comes AGI so work is not so much needed. still humans would be split. motherfuckers wanna be more special and control others, naturally. we'd invent reasons for having a hierarchy. you'd have idiots reasoning why it's a good idea to deny a proper life to most people, because complicated reasons. atm humans are biologically impaired this way, because of uga-buga networks in the brain
