>>15310458
At least it used to be before I fucked it all up

>>15310461
No, I came here because of space autism. I've put lots of SpaceX references in the dragon erotica I write, though. Including the lines "Of course I still love you" (said by a man to a dragon) and "Just read the instructions." I've also mentioned The Heart of Gold landing on Mars, since it takes place in the future.

I bite my thumb at the FAA, sir.

What does the binary translate to

>>15310453
what fag ass website is that picture from?

>>15310489
they dont know since a finger is covering up one of the numbers. someone said either 1957 or 2021.

>>15310491
Oh kek that makes way more sense. I tried translated it as either a space, a 0, or a 1 and got ù, ô, and ü respectively. Numbers make a hell of a lot more sense kek

tbf Mir was probably super comfy

>>15310500
It smelt and was infested with bacterial colonies in the walls.

>>15310489
if you read it starting from the head and assume the finger is over a 1, its 10100111111 and translates to:
? (question mark) in ascii/utf-8
§ (section sign) in ASCII
Կ in unicode

if you read it as 11111100101:
� in ascii/utf-8
ü in ASCII
ߥ in unicode

>>15310644
It’s not likely. The only things they seem to stream consistently are ISS-related launches, and that’s because NASA puts in most of the work. This one’s putting up a military reconnaissance satellite. We didn’t even get a video of the last Proton launch they did, and that was launching a domestic commercial payload.

So Elon wants to launch Starship every other day huh? Well there are only 7 days in a week. If you launch Starship every other day that is 3.5 times a week. How do you launch half a starship huh?

>>15310744
And there are 14 days in 2 weeks.

>>15310644
>>15310696
I'd be surprised if it actually launches on time. When the Soyuz-2-1v program got started NPO Energomash said that they had twenty NK-33s left in their warehouse and that they expected to be able to use those to cobble together ten working engines. This'll be the tenth 2-1v flight, so it's almost certain to be the last NK-33 powered Soyuz, and it'll be using an engine constructed from the least desirable parts that were still considered flightworthy. The ninth 2-1v flight had a long string of scubs and delays before it managed to get off the pad and I'm not sure what that could be blamed on besides the geriatric engines.

perchance there are 3 weeks of real time within elon's "fortnight"?

>>15310762
Nothing is ever on time.

>>15310444
so can we finally get over this retarded NOOK fear and start actually using them in practical works and not for just throwing around empty barking threats?

Orion is doable in principle and outside the atmosphere the residual radiation is a big nothingburger. How are you going to deaccelerate with it is the bigger major problem left

>>15310569

Falcon 9 is a suicide burn I think?
Starship has more throttle control, with hovering shouldnt it be way easier to land on the arms

>>15310955
It did come in with a lot more tilt than seemed normal

>>15310955
Same. Looked a bit more rough than other landings. You couldn't even see the droneship until the very last moment of the landing from the booster camera.

>>15310971
Yes. More throttle control, more gimbal, more precision.

>>15310971
Booster maybe, but I just have hard time believing they are catching starship.

What books? I've read the entirety of The Culture series by Iain M. Banks. I even put references into the stories I wrote. One of them begins with the sentence "The ship didn't even have a name" which is also the opening line of Consider Phlebas. I also mention the ships Grey Area and Clear Air Turbulence.

boing is such a fucking joke of a company lmao
did all the good engineers leave after the merger with mcdonnell douglas?

>>15311033
lol, that would have been some future. Imagine using Orion for ISS crews and *gulp* resupply

If boeing sells its half of ULA, what happens to starliner? Isn't it supposed to fly on a ULA rocket?

>>15311041
Nothing. Starliner is a completely separate program internal to Boeing.

>>15311036
Pretty much. Boeing's suffered post-Soviet tier braindrain since the company was handed over to the MBA management class.

based poster from 2021

are they already designing starship as a long duration orbital vehicle or is it just a reusable second stage for now? It feels like they'd need lots of additional hardware to retain fuel and generate power during extended flight.

>>15311077
I think as of now there are zero plans for in type of human habitation with life support variants of Starship and if there are they are still in in early development and in secret still.

Many people have an almost instinctively negative reaction to of the suggestion that elections could be stolen. The idea that a large number (maybe even a majority) of elected officials in the United States are installed by fraud would be a tidy explanation for why politicians care so little about issues that are important to their consultancies, but when fraud is suggested many people respond with a sullen "But that can't happen because it doesn't happen!" They reject objective reality in favor of a fantasy because they find the fantasy more appealing, more safe, less demanding of personal action. Anything that threatens this delusion is met with hostility.

In any case he was entertaining.

>>15311383
Wake up and smell the reality. Musk is Hitler 2.0/Tech Trump to liberals today. Why? Because he's rich/white/cis male. The mortal enemy of liberals today. Times changed since Obama days.

The Biden admin has been full on attack against EVERYTHING Musk related. Whether its his companies being stalled, his companies being thrown lawsuits after lawsuits by feds, laws being created to fuck over his companies, snubbing, using government funded thinktanks to label him Russian disinfo agents, using government funded research groups to force advertisers to divest from his companies, etc.

Biden needs to go.

>>15311406
When confronted with the fact that we live in a nation so gleefully corporatistic its practice is fascism in all but branding, most people would rather gaslight themselves and say "My vote matters! My representatives care about my concerns! The governemnt respects my rights!" Meanwhile, I'm over here saying "End the Fed!" and implying that it should end in a giant skull pyramid instead of just abolishing the institution. I know that the majority of people aren't like me.

...Yet. Staying optimistic about the future is the only way to stay sane, at the end of the day.

If Washington tried to nationalize SpaceX or Tesla they could do the same to Boeing or any other megacorp that is currently comfortable with it's level of political patronage, and they don't want that precedent to be set. The current setup they have isn't really well optimized for instances of the billionaire class fucking with things. Besides, you kinda missed the point.

A theory that requires fewer moving parts is that they hired from amongst their clique, and by sheer coincidence their clique is filled to the brim with freaks, the mentally ill, the criminally insane and the hideously incompetent.

The found the problem with the engine, so now they need to do something to correct it. Return to flight for New Shepard should be sometime before Q4 2023, but Blue is being the usual so we don't know any more than that.

Lets do some math anons, if SpaceX wants to launch 3 Starships a day, about how many would they need to have to keep a consistent Mars colony going with transportation, as well as paid launches to LEO, LLO, and LMO? Would this be across the entire solar system or just Earth? What would be the fuel costs of this (until we reach Titan) every day?

>>15311641
>>15311643
Unironically if Starship works then the Space Shuttle was worth it simply because it developed tps technology and gave immense data to engineers. Continuing the Saturn program might have been better short term (which, mind you, is only obvious with hindsight) but it would be much harder to make the step up to fully reusable.

Of course there's a middle ground which mogs both timelines, but c'est la vie

>>15311652
>when no other proposal would fly
That isn't the case, Saturn V launches cost far less per kilo, if they had just kept on manufacturing the old standard that would've been a massive success compared to the shittle The edition of Buzz Aldrin's autobiography that I read, which was a 1981 pressing, ended with a large rant about how terrible the shuttle program was going to be and how much of a step backwards it was. Aldrin was an extremely bright guy, very well educated in his sphere and he was right on the mark.

Easy. Contract it out to a company owned by your wife, hidden behind some standard bureaucratic bullshit, then leak the corruption story to some meme ultra right publication without providing enough evidence to actually prove the accusation. Then if the story ever breaks you can spin it as a right wing conspiracy to stop a sexual harassment hotline and link it to the early conspiratorial articles.

>>15311675
the problem is as you continue emptying your fuel you're carrying a bunch of useless empty rocket around, which is extra weight that you don't want.
So there is basically a fine line at which point seperating your rocket into multiple stages and dumping them as they empty of fuel is more efficient, even if you have to build and lift the seperation mechanism and an entire new set of engines.
Another point is that engines are optimized for either atmospheric or vacuum use, so you need two different types anyways, hence most rockets go for two stages.

>>15312135
another reason to be excited for Starship

>>15312116
its going to be profitable soon and he said he sees a clear way to 250bil from current 20 bil
also musk didn't pay the 44bil himself, for instance there was 13 billion in leverage that twitter itself takes which is a reason why people thought twitter would go bankrupt soon, that 13 bil translates to something like 1-1.5 bil in interesta payments per year
so that leaves something like 30 bil to finance through other means, some parties just rolled over their equity into the private company, musk had co-investors and so on
it was a bit difficult to find but according to this reuters article https://archive.is/20221031161457/https://www.reuters.com/markets/us/how-will-elon-musk-pay-twitter-2022-10-07/, musk financed something like 20 bil of the deal in total by himself

>The rabbis of the Talmud believed that the world was flat, and that the sun revolved around the Earth every day. There is a debate about the length of the solar year in the Talmud, and its consequences and the rare Jewish ceremony of the Blessing of the Sun (Birkat Hahammah) are discussed. The view of the talmudic rabbis is contrasted with that of the contemporary Greek astronomers. While the rabbis of the Talmud argued about the size of the flat Earth, the Greeks had determined the Earth to be a sphere, had calculated its circumference and had moved on to consider other questions.
