What the fuck is your problem?

>>15934713
he hates anime for some reason
I'm currently converting the new Aeon R test video to a webm, let's see how I do

>>15934716
the anime is fine, the thread formatting is fucked however

>>15934742
skill issue

SpaceX should have set up star base in Arkansas, then barge ships along the water ways whereeever they want

Later down the line you can just hop to launch sites along the gulf/florida/islands

>>15934744
that doesn't make any sense zoomer

>>15934749
they can hop shit wherever they want from Boca Chica without putting anything on a barge

>>15934752
they have no room in boca chica

Why are there 2 threads again?

>>15934918
This one early staged and done horribly wrong, the other thread ACTUALLY staged at page 10 and is more active. They will call you anti-anime for using that thread even though that OP directly stated hes fine with anime.

>>15934921
this one didn't early stage, but the formatting is fucked (which seems to be on purpose, not the first time this has happened)

>>15934918
some fag is mad because I used a hyphen in the subject line or something (it's because he hates anime)

How do you make this work at cryogenic temperatures?

>>15936578
materials that are pliable at cryogenic temperatures exist
I don't know how many survive ambient temperatures though

>>15936578
You just make rubber that works at cryogenic temps.

>>15936603
>>15936614
So you don't.

>>15936725
I didn't say that, I said I just don't know of any
I don't know about a whole lot of things

>>15936726
>>15936725
whatever they're making this shit out of might work

>>15936727
Go ahead and try to bend those lines when they reach cryogenic temperatures.

>>15936379
Yeah I got one of those with my water filter, they don't work without gravity to keep the liquid at the bottom of the tank, and they also don't work without water mains pressure. And probably don't work without air at the top too.
Totally worthless in space with cryogenics. So shut the fuck up midwit.

>>15936809
>they don't work without gravity to keep the liquid at the bottom of the tank, and they also don't work without water mains pressure.
But thats completly wrong?

>>15936809
>They don't work without gravity

Damn son you should get on the phone to Northrop Grumman and let them know so they can pull their range of spacecraft diaphragm tanks.

>>15938989
This. Payload to orbit is currently negative. Last flight FTS'd when it realized in would run out of prop over Africa. This is what happens when software engineers design a launch vehicle.

Pic related: a real launch vehicle.

>>15936756
>Most commonly used with LOX and liquid N2
Are you fucking retarded?

>>15939616
The question that I have is why is Starship performing so poorly with zero payload. If it was loaded up with 100 tons, it would be slower off the pad, stage slower/later, and have enough fuel to actually reach orbit.

>>15939919
By what measure are you staying that Starship is under performing?

>>15939931
All of the important staging events will move to the left purely because its heavier. If Starship is already at the edge of its performance now, it's not going to be able to make it with a payload.

>>15939919
>>15939988
In the spirit of Christmas, I invite you to be a gay retarded nigger somewhere else

>>15939988
>If Starship is already at the edge of its performance now

Again, by what measure are you asserting Starship is under performing?

Spruce goose

>>15940025
Probably the low throttle the rocket seemed to be using for most of its ascent and the shutdown of the engines at about 30 seconds and 1700 meters per second short of orbital velocity.

Booster is kill

>>15940720
oh so you're just retarded then, alright.
it was an oxygen leak you dumb nigger.

That abortion of a thread is still up?

>>15937834
LEGO is plural already, like Deer or Fish. LEGO can refer to a single piece or a pile of pieces, as deer can refer to an individual or a herd.
>>15937844
Because its fun

>>15941683
Chill a bit; the engines probably were running at a lower throttle for a gentler ascent, but the failure that began at T+7:40 or whatever was the big problem.

>>15941683
>It's an oxygen leak!
>My source is the fake video game graphic the PR team made for the livestream.

shiggy.

>>15939472
Same thing

Will amateur liquid fueled rocketry ever be a thing?

I was thinking butane + NO2 would be a good mix for that.

>>15942504
liquid cryogenic fuel is hard pls understand

anyone still using this thread is a subhuman who deserves to be thrown into a mass grave.

>>15942966
So, you too?

Hullo is complaining his chinesium electric kettle broke.

LMAO this "thread" is the biggest self own in history. Keep saving it from page 10, maybe next year it will reach the bump limit.

>>15943400
Amazing levels of seethe you got there

>>15942701

Butane isn't cryogenic, nor is NO2.

>>15934921
how early?

>>15943400
a few posts per day and you have about 100 days of bumping so yes, easily next year

>>15934505
cute rocket
what's its payload?

how do you account for the falling fuel weight as it burns up and lightens the total mass to be moved?

>>15943928
this is honestly, truly embarrassing.
>f-fuck nobody is engaging with my split thread

>>15944651
>i-if i just pretend his post was not directed at me it will hurt less
do you flinch when people walk past you?

>>15942504
Amateur liquid rocketry is already a thing on a small scale.

NO2 isn't a good idea, it's fairly poisonous. N2O on the other hand is a better idea. Butane isn't great because it's vapor pressure is low. High vapor is useful for autogenous pressurisation. So, propane is more useful than butane. Try not to hurt yourself and others if you want to have a go.>>15942448

>>15936379
what is this

>>15948176
Carbon fiber. BFR used it once, but Spacex engineers couldnt get it working, despite tons of small launchers and Blue Origin using it at scale massively

>>15948199
It wasn't a matter of not being able to make it work, but that it was a poor fit for the company's iterative development process and for the operational characteristics of the vehicle.

>>15948218
Except automated fiber placement negates that claim. It's basically like 3D printing but carbon fiber. Neutron using it and BO and Firefly

>>15948176
it's a COPV, AMOS-6 was destroyed by one allegedly

>>15948224
Automated fiber placement does not make engineering revisions to the aerostructures trivial, and it doesn't make carbon fiber in a deep cryo and high heat operational environment lighter than stainless steel.

>>15948233
> doesn't make carbon fiber in a deep cryo and high heat operational environment lighter than stainless steel
This was always a historical revisionist cope

>>15948238
It's not cope when it's legitimately better. It looks even more lopsided when the labor and materials costs start to be factored in.

>>15934505
>SpaceX and its consequences have been a disaster for the rocket watching community
Explain, please? I'm out of the loop.

>>15948245
All of that is justification AFTER THE FACT.

>>15934558
>literal ham beast
Who's that?

>>15934558
HOLY SHIT WE HAVE HER NIPPLES NOW????

>>15948408
rocket launches are boring as shit thanks to starlink launches

>>15948423
SpaceX's decision to abandon Carbon Fiber came after purchasing mandrels, tooling, and securing supply deals for carbon fiber. They abandoned their investments without even trying to build usable test articles because they realized stainless steel was that much better almost immediately. Therefor, it was not after the fact.

>>15948457
Carbon fiber is so hard that SpaceX's competition is investing all into it. SpaceX gave up because Elon threw a tantrum, you dont need to rewrite history

>>15948438
>are boring as shit
How so? What "spark" has it lost compared to before?

>>15948462
Name one competitive medium or heavy lift launch provider that isn't Rocket Lab.

>>15948480
Firefly, Blue Origin. Thought you had a gotcha didnt ya?

>>15948503
Last I checked, Firefly is still in the Small launch business, and Blue Origin is using Aluminum-Lithium for their rockets.

>>15948514
can anybody say MLV? how bout Blue Glenn fairing?

>>15948516
Composite interstages and payload fairings are old-hat; SpaceX uses both.

>>15948518
I accept your concession

>>15948519
What am I even conceding? Right now it seems I'm conceding that there are two targeted competitors to Falcon 9 that use a carbon-fiber composite tank structure instead of just one, and neither of them is expected to be operational before 2025.

>>15948524
The conversation is over. We can talk about something else now that I won

>>15948527
Seeing as your initial assertion was "SpaceX failed at carbon fiber" with some vague insinuations of other companies being more competent and better because of their upcoming partially expendable rockets that are years away from service, that's quite a claim.

This entire thread is subhuman shitskins arguing over whos right when OP is clearly a faggot.

Dead fetus thread

Did you know? OP is a fat nigger

OP is based! Immortal thread

Thread!

It's well and truly over

Fake thread

this will go down in history as probably the least successful thread split ever. as someone who trolls regularly, i get second-hand embarrassment watching OP continuously try to pretend there are people actually using this thread for anything other than mocking him, rows and rows of posts laughing at him for being such a fag and every hour or so he ads an innocuous comment that tries so desperately to spur discussion.
considering the fact that the furfag was behind a lot of the previous thread splits, i'm guessing this is him too, likely trying to create a strawman for people to attack, he didn't like that people preferred anime spamming over furfaggotry and it's clearly expressed ITT.

jesus christ OP, you're very entertaining but i honestly reccomend that you just stop shaming yourself further and put a knife to your throat.
