first for pebbles

Bezos left holding his dick (literal) for 24 years still nothing to show for it.

Reminder this was staged at page 10, ignore any seething from the failstager that states otherwise.

>>16450266
Seems like a lot of bloat. Lots of redundant members not doing anything. Delete it all

>>16450273
elon musk go take your horse medicine.

>>16450272
but there is no other thread other than the one that went to page 10? is this a pre-emptive measure or something

hi guys :D don't forget about me

Now that Harris looks to be losing, is Bill Nelson going full unhinged political and asking to lock up Musk?

>>16450283
yes, because the early stager is actually this autistically obsessed with breaking the rule, he got burnt during IFT-5, spammed like a retard, got banned, and has been on a crusade ever since.

>>16450284
Why? Your not gonna be doing anything interesting for years.

Has anyone found out what happened to that astronaut that was taken to hospital yet? It seems weird that they're keeping it secret unless the lady got knocked up or something.

>>16450293
She's space pregant. Zero-G caused hyper-fertilization, she's having octuplets.

>Starship 33 has been revealed! Shown fully assembled for the first time. This is the first next generation design Starship and is expected to fly on flight 7.
>10/25/24

In 10 days, Elon will be either the most powerful man in the world or uberfucked.

>>16450309
He's fucked either way, largest scam artist in human history. Sells scam cars that kill people. You should really watch ThunderF00t on Youtube, then you'll see what he's really like.

>>16450309
Elon should've just kept his fucking mouth shut and quietly lobbied both parties like the defense, real estate, and oil industry does. By openly supporting a side he puts himself in a situation where he can actually lose.
>b-but lobbying bad and speaking his mind is the honest thing to do
it's not about integrity, it's about making sure he can actually achieve his goal of colonizing Mars.

>>16450309
The biggest play in history

>>16450322
Lobbying won't make you able to make the drastic changes necessary to achieve that goal. He took a bet, and if he wins he will be in a far better position for these next four absolutely crucial years than if he just kept his mouth shut and remained non political.

>>16450309
Hell of a fucking gamble for the man to bet fully on one Trump instead of playing both sides. Hope it's worth it then.

>>16450309
In 10 days from now, I'll be here either doomposting ironically as a way of coping, or gaanposting as a way of celebrating.

>>16450333
The die was cast with the last election and the draconian tyrannies exercised in it.

>>16450309
some swing states have said its going to take like 10-13 days to count the fucking votes
so 10 days might be the election day, but this thing might drag out if trump doesn't win decisively in a landslide

>>16450322
A week ago I agreed with you. This goes beyond Elon. There's a big schism among the elite right now, new money (tech) is on Trump. Elon is just a sperg about it (like everything else). Keep in mind that in the last five years they have
>released a man made virus during the presidency of the first guy not hand picked by the CIA since Nixon
>stolen the election like they do in third world countries
>had their guys rally radicals to storm the capital like they do in third world countries
These people are obsessed with power for it's own sake. They would kill everyone not in their grasp if they could get away with it. Elon isn't exaggerating, these people are anti human extinctionists. No matter what friends he makes, no matter what money he spends, they wouldn't let Mars happen for the same reason they didn't let South Africa happen, and attempted to prevent America from happening before that.

>>16450332
If he loses then the democrats will do everything they can to charge him with crimes and seize his assets. Besides Trump only has four more years, there's no guarantee that the next republican candidate has his charisma, and the next democrat candidate will still want him put away. Elon can probably get to Mars in four years, but he won't be doing much after that if the pendulum swings back left for the 2028 election.
Betting on the next four years isn't worth it when he needs a decade to secure a Martian colony.

>>16450343
JD Vance is pretty charismatic actually

Fags

europa clipper more like gayropa shitter haha

>>16450343
He wouldn't be able to do it at all if he didn't take this bet. You're not going to be able to launch Starship at the cadance and scale required for it period. Deregulation needs to happen, which he needs to support Trump for happening.

who would musk prefer as next potus?
JD vance
or
DEsantis

or
a wildcard/dem?

>>16450342
please go back to your containment board sweetie, /sci/ isn't for you

>>16450341
God I fucking hate US politics.

>>16450364
De Santis if he bends the knee
Vance can be after DeSantis with Barron as his VP

>>16450271

Spaceflight?

>>16450378
brutal

>>16450295
>she's having octuplets.
Octojellys

>>16450378
Man, I kinda feel bad about that.

>>16450341
That's how long they think it's going to take to get fake mail-in votes printed in China and then, oops look at what we found behind a disused lavatory!
>>16450372
It's all from the corrupt Demorats. Reminder that from Reagan to 2016 we only had Democrats and Bushes as POTUS. It's also likely that Obama is one of the people behind what happened in 2020, the only president not to just fuck off and retire, he fucking moved to DC after his 8 years.
>>16450343
>there's no guarantee that the next republican candidate has his charisma
He actually found a VP candidate who isn't the typical Neocon box of rocks, and there's still DeSantis.

And now it's time for me to find an airlock so I can get back to talking about spess.

>>16450291
did someone really get mindbroken by the tower catch?

>>16450341
5th circuit court blocked this shit yesterday, citing federal law which overrides state law. Not this time fucko.

>>16450396

>>16450322
Biden administration and Californian government started fucking with Elon before Elon got partisan.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TViIk4Py6lc

>>16450426
In peril

>>16450454
I remember when Biden didn't bother to invite Tesla and Elon to this EV initiative meeting back in 2021. It was the moment I felt that the administration was on the warpath against Elon from then on.

>>16450379
so did the shuttle thing prove to be a success?
im excited to hear more about it!

>>16450272
yeah that guy is a freak. he made a second page 10 bake a few threads ago since he's totally demented
>his late bake
>>16447313
>the real page 10 bake
>>16447194
he even bizarrely had threads ready to delete (I checked and I noticed a lot of frog threads suddenly disappeared) so it seems he always has shitposting threads here to delete as needed so he can force a "real" page 10 bake.
what a fucking autistic loser I'm actually kind of shocked. pretty sure he's also that early staging retard so he's just having a big mental trauma.

>>16450307
Why build version 2 when they already have version 3 planned out?
Why go out of your way to have an out of date design even before it flies

>>16450466
Exactly. The DNC had already picked Elon as a target to stir up public sentiment against because he was
>wealthy
>visible and widely known
>a white male from south africa
>ran non-union companies
They probably also figured he would be an easy target, with republicans not coming to his defense, because republicans don't like electric cars. They miscalculated on this count; republicans don't Elon's cars but they don't hold that against the man personally.

>>16450322
>quietly ignores the fact that Demonrats chose to harass Musk before Biden even got elected

>>16450434
>mumble rap
something like this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDakzFJfZ4c

>>16450342
dont forget its not just a manmade virus, its a manmade virus funded by the Fauci and his allies AND elites like Bill Gates and WEF working to depopulate earth because they believe there are too many humans alive

>>16450479
Isnt blob gates a new money?

>>16450490
No. His parents were rich, and their parents, and their parents too. Bill Gate's great grandfather was the president of a bank. By American standards this makes Bill Gates "Old Money".

Granted, none of them were nearly as rich as Bill. But nonetheless, they were rich.

>>16450490
billg's parents were already elites, he just happened to become a nerd hero in spite of that

>>16450498
Bill's great-grandfather; his mother's grandfather:
>James Willard Maxwell (1864–1951), was president of the National City Bank in Seattle from 1911 to 1929 and a director of the Seattle branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.
director of a branch of the federal reserve. big deal, even if his great-grandson has since eclipsed him.

>>16450473
v3 is probably a paper rocket at this point, so need to do engineering work for it and some of it will be informed by the testing done on v2

>>16450471
this is why we must adhere strictly to the staging rule now to spite these people as hard as possible, schizophrenics should be bullied everywhere they go for being obnoxious losers.

>>16450307
hop wen?

>>16450155
Wow holy shit. TRUCE. Based Bezos!!! BB

>>16450475
I don't think its really that republican don't like EVs, its more like they don't like this specific thing being forced down their throats, especially as EVs have been pretty expensive

Anyone else having problems with 4chan's new update? No matter what I do I keep gettting redirected to /pol/.

>>16450479
you are retarded and a schizo, not everything is connected, sometimes shit just happens, in this case chink fucked up and ate bat soup.

fucking hell i hate connectedbrained retards like you because you're basically a tool for these big orgs, you unknowingly create a bunch of perfect reasons for normalfags to never ever engage with conspiracies, no matter how well-founded and sketchy they are, because they're scared of being labeled the same group as you people.
methinks it's unironically a strat for the deep state to get morons like you riled up so nobody ever actually looks into shit.

>>16450510
They think hybrids and EVs are for weird nerds of questionable sexuality. Even now that my father loves Elon Musk for being aligned with Trump, he can't stop ranting about dick sucking faggots in teslas and how ugly the cybertruck is.

>>16450504
im mostly annoyed because v3 has 6 vac engines which look much nicer and gives engine out redundancy. also the stetch tanks of v3 are necessary to have the performance to complete artemis, so v2 is sort of a waste of time. The single benefit i see is they will waste less vac engines on losing dev ships

>>16450516
thats pretty funny

>>16450512
wasn't the lab leak confirmed?

>>16450511
they'll have a fix for that in two weeks

>>16450490
his money is entrenched. he retired from microsoft more than 20 years ago in 2000 and has been doing background elite stuff. He was funding the covid "bat lady" researcher from the Wuhan Labs AND he was at the same time funding the same vaccine company, of which he profited billions right as covid took to the stage. He then divested from the company right after his vaccine company skyrocktted

>no big launches in a week
>immediately descends into pol and x tier bait

>>16450529
Yes. We even have crimes of wrong doings by Fauci and his various friends trying to scrub all evidence, not using gov emails for fear of discovery, asking FOIA (freedom of information act) lady on how to scrub from search results by replacing word characters with numbers and shit to hide from transparency records, using personal emails, etc.

>>16450548
can you show literally any evidence for this?

>>16450516
>he can't stop ranting about dick sucking faggots in teslas and how ugly the cybertruck is
True and based

https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/10/why-is-elon-musk-talking-to-vladimir-putin-and-what-does-it-mean-for-spacex/
>. He has used social network X (formerly Twitter) to push an increasingly partisan viewpoint and peddled a stream of ideas and theories that can accurately be described as misinformation.

huh? like what?
one that comes to mind is that Pelosi husband gay hammer thing but was he really "peddling" that as much as asking if its true or not

>>16450546
Well, this is now /sfg/ - Schizo Frenzy General. Which means that discussing VASIMR is now finally on topic :)

>>16450546
Tell Elon to push for an election night Flight-6

>>16450562
electric engines are for mass cucks

>>16450560
to add to this, the article reads like run of the mill partisan mainstream "news", which is pretty disappointing, peddling many of the talking points they peddle (without actually being necessarily true at least to the extent that the things get repeated)
the fact that the news just pretends that a multi-year attack on Musk hasn't been going on and this WSJ story is just something new and unprecedented (and as such should not be taken with a massive grain of salt due to previous bullshit claims) is itself quite partisan IMO

>>16450512
Not him and this is a good point and it pisses me off how the conspiracy became a catch-all totally washed out term, just like "racism". Of course that helps real racists and crazy conspiracy kooks and hurts immensely reasonable people who have reasonable doubts that are being silenced and discarded as "conspiracy". And when the media shut down a certain point of view as a "conspiracy" they always exploit this tactic. They try to lump all the "doubters" together to discredit and ridicule those who have reasonable concerns by finding and quoting more extreme points of view on the same topic.

Speaking of schizoshit, what happened to the QI drive? I know the one launched in 2023 apparently had like a malfunction or something, did a second one ever get launched and tested?
Even if it's retarded, I wish it was real so spaceflight would be so much easier.

>>16450569
to add yet again, funnily enough Berger hasn't actually posted the article on his X feed for some reason
why?

>>16450559
Amalthea for the view
>muh radiation belt
We're removing that

>>16450569
>>16450560
>that can accurately be described as misinformation
Really disapointed how Berger came out as an NPC shilling leftwing propaganda like that. Its not based on fact but rather on reputational laundering assertions pushed as "fact".

>>16450575
he's embarrassed by it and knows he'll be berated for it

>>16450477
I dunno. I don't listen to jungle noises.

>>16450576
>Amalthea
I was going to say the same, anon... you copycat.

>>16450578
yeah and something as clearly as propaganda as this
fucking anonymous random sources
give me a fucking break

Its like writing an article about Berger that I heard from some anoymous sources that he likes to fuck dogs, and that there was an article like this a few years ago too implying this somehow makes the claim more believable

>>16450566
They are key for flights beyond Mars

>>16450571
exactly, my guess is they get a few paid plants to rile up the connectedbrains in order to peddle a new bullshit schizo "theory" every so often
flattards were clearly an example of this, it makes perfect fucking sense that this was a minor little movement that got co-opted and signal boosted by cianigs in order create a perfect strawmen attack against anyone with serious evidence of a real conspiracy behind closed doors.
whistleblowers just get ignored because of this.

https://x.com/SpaceNews_Inc/status/1849937778747781305

even foust is posting this in an extremely disingenuous way
Nelson didn't say the report is concerning, he said that IF the report is true, that is concerning
this is completely different
If Foust fucked dogs on the regular, that would be concerning
the fact that someone posted some shitpost article about Foust fucking dogs is in itself not really concerning

>>16450595
https://spacenews.com/nelson-says-reports-of-musk-putin-conversations-concerning/
>WASHINGTON — NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said he is concerned about reports that Elon Musk, chief executive of SpaceX, has had discussions with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
>“I don’t know that that story is true,” Nelson said at the conference. “I think it should be investigated. If the story is true that there have been multiple conversations between Elon Musk and the president of Russia, then I think that would be concerning, particularly for NASA, for the Department of Defense, for some of the intelligence agencies.”

incredibly disingenous even at the start of the article
why are they doing this?

>>16450595
I think Musk entering into the political theater has buck-broken Foust and his subtle EDS

>>16450595
Nelson actually said Musk should be investigated.
AND THEN, said if if its [after investigation], then its concerning.
Political partisan brainrot in fullswing. Its just another reputation laundering.

>>16450600
both Berger and Foust have destroyed their reputations as objective neutral reporters with this
not sure whats going on here, are they personally writing these due to being very pro-democrat? are they being pressured by their editors somehow? is there some editorializing going on and their names are put on these stories to give them more believable (as both journalists have had good reputations until now of mainly being objective and factual)

>>16450602
reputation laundering makes sense but they have to see that this makes them seem partisan, no?
and if Trump wins, which he is favoured to do at this point, then this torpedoing of their reputations was all for nothing pretty much
why comment at all?

I am DEEPLY concerned by recent reports that some anons here think they hate journalists enough. They do not.

>>16450595
I would simply not speak privately to foreign adversaries!

>>16450610
>why comment at all
They have nothing left to lose now. Right now the reputation laundering to hurt Musk is to sink Trumps' allies so that he doesn't win. The attack angle on Musk is as such, "Trump is close with a guy who is betraying the country by talking to Russians in secret! WOW HOW UNAMERICAN! TRUMP HAS THAT GUY CLOSE TO HIM? A NAZI RUSSIAN ASSET!!!"
What has Bill Nelson to lose if Trump wins? He'll be dead by the end of Trump's term anyway. But he has more to gain by pushing his political partisan views so that his leftist party wins the election

>>16450611
Breaking story anon, keep us updated as it develops.

>>16450309
>uberfucked
how?

>Starlink is heavily used by Ukraine
>SpaceX is the biggest reason the US still has space superiority over China and Russia
>Elon wants to move away from fossil fuels which will make the west less dependent on Russian exports
>Elon builds all his factories in the US, protecting American jobs and trade
>his other companies are keeping the west ahead in technology and economy
and yet despite all that, he's considered a russian spy because he allegedly talked to Putin a few times? wtf is wrong with these people. Elon has done more for the west and America than every 21st century democrat party politician and voter combined.

It's the sound bite narrative that sticks when it comes to EDS atm. Pretty close to the election too. Screw long-term consequences or whatnot should the accusations be nothingburger, gotta cancel him NOW.

>>16450660
Truth doesn't matter anyways, people will associate him with that now.

>>16450661
I just call them retarded NPCs, whenever I hear anyone parrot anything the mainstream media says.

journoscum waited too long to dredge up anything about elon that could actually stick. ironically if they hadn't had EDS for so many years their accusations may have held some weight now but they blew their social capital so they simply are speaking to the zealots now. markets have spoken though. the invisible hand remains supreme. A second Trump presidency and the true dawn of the Space Age is coming

>>16450636
what the fuck is that

>>16450665
No one trusts media except the demonrats, even then demonrats know better than that

>>16450638
I wonder if he'll crawl back after this whole thing blows over or will people perpetually remind him of whatever partisan nonsense he's doing now.

>A few years ago, for example, another seal was found with about four inches of eel hanging out of its nostril. The team was worried about the potential danger to the seal: It was wheezing a bit, and if it dove deep or tried to swim, the nose eel might have created a passageway for water to enter the seal’s lungs. The research team decided it was worth capturing the seal—for no more than 60 seconds—to try to remove the nasal invader.

>In practice, the removal took no more than 45 seconds, even though that eel turned out to be almost two feet long. “We are pretty sure the complete animal was removed, as the skull was found, but some fins or spines may have come off the eel during the removal,” the researchers wrote on Facebook. “The seal did not struggle very much, and no blood came out when the eel was being removed.”

>This latest nose eel was also removed, with a “slow, steady pull.” The seal was unharmed; the eel, however, perished.

>>16450682

If you dont remove the communist, they will kill the space program. There is also a strong 50% chance the commie is a European trying to insert himself into American discourse.

I don't care if the democratic party breaks up spacex and makes it illegal for private companies to explore space. I'm not political. I'm just here to whine about some /pol/ posting I noticed. Actually I'm going to derail the thread by bitching about it but really it's your fault for not agreeing with my politics (which I don't have but uh coincidently allows for the complete eradication of the future of humans in space)

Europeans' attitudes towards political matters are precisely why the ESA will never accomplish anything. Innovative and ambitious organizations like SpaceX can only exist i America (and only be copied by the chinese.) The only thing Europe is good at is wasting resources on corruption masquerading as muh social programs.

>>16450737

I talk about space flight every single day.

And let's not forget that leftists used to like space a few years ago when they thought that space was too difficult and unprofitable for private companies to ever succeed at it, making it the sole domain of governments, and therefore the perfect place for their "gay space communism" aka the secular cult of star trek futurism.

SpaceX turned that theory on its head, rapidly eclipsing what any government-run space agency is capable of, making a huge mockery out of the ESA in particular, proving that only capitalism can take humanity to the stars. Leftists will never forgive Elon Musk for this. They want him dead.

>>16450773

>>16450779
>ESA is just European NASA.
No, they're much worse than that. NASA at least invests in the development of commercial space industry, via programs like COTS, CCDev, etc. A substantial portion of NASA may have to be dragged kicking and screaming through these processes, but it still gets done. All the ESA is good for is making Ariane-affiliated bureaucrats rich.

anyway, before i go, can i ask one final question?
why are you so obsessed with my nationality.
from my perspective, it seems like the only thing you're even capable of bringing up, but i'm not sure why that's supposed to feel threatening.
my guess is you're a flagbrained retard, who came to 4ch on one of the flag boards and obsesses over flags 24/7.
you claim not to be a /pol/nigger and yet any time /pol/ is brought up in a negative light you jump in to defend it.

>>16450830
>literally cannot stop ranting about /pol/
we get it dude, you don't want to talk about space flight. you can stop now.

>>16450830
I've taken note of you ever since you derailed a thread by getting into a screaming match with another dutchanon while you acted like a typical leftist. then I noticed how you always seethed about /pol/ even when it barely brought up. given like the three times I've called you out you've instantly replied I think I'm doing pretty well.

>>16450828
Nothing else can take the extreme cold there except baseduz. Americanski rocket must be launched from tropics or catch chill

why do people keep bringing up all these old government makework programs that had absolutely no vision and eventually were cancelled with nothing to show for it

>>16450834
i'm not the one constantly bringing up a /pol/thread anon, that was and still is you, 24/7
/pol/ is a husk of a board that died a long time ago, being inhabited by nothing but tourists, as it is now a gateway board for normalfags to invade through. and yet for some reason you seem genuinely suprised that everyone hates it.
one might question why that is.

The EU is a bit of a meme as a whole imo. You only need to cross the border to your neighboring country and they'll have an entirely different work culture and stuff, and on top of that you're communicating with your second or third language (English). Let's imagine ESA manages to pull ten thousand top tier engineers from all over Europe, it seems like it would be a nightmare managing everyone. It just makes everything a bit more awkward. And nobody is patriotic for "Europe" either, in the same way someone at NASA might be like hell yeah let's make America achieve this thing. I don't care what's going on in France

>>16450830

>>16450836
>Soyuz can't launch to anything lower than 51 degrees inclination, effectively barring Russia from participating in China's space station

>>16450889

>>16450898
literally the only reason why they and octopuses haven't yet is because they live in water and don't have dexterous limbs.
it's the same with wolves.
wolves ended up getting gimped on their road to minmaxing intelligence because they didn't happen to have the limbs perfect for tool use that we did.
the tool use intelligence reinforcement selection process never happened with anyone but humans and to some degree apes.
if you genetically grafted hands onto a dog and allowed them to do their thing for a few million years they would probably discover fire.

>>16450884
huh I thought the block 2 were stretched more than that

V2 gives them heatshield data, control software data, re-entry heating data on ship and booster, etc. Hardware rich development means build everything all the time always. If SpaceX hadn't tested Raptor 1 because they were waiting for Raptor 2 which was obsoleted by Raptor 3, the "real" engine they would still be trying to design it to get it work first time. This is the SLS development cycle, autistically engineer and test and simulate everything so it works first try, but not really because you inevitably missed something, so you need to go back and do hundreds of thousands of hours of more autistic engineering because each test article costs eight billion. This is the engineering project management equivalent of the invention of Calculus, it is just better than what people were doing before. Starship / Superheavy is multiple orders of magnitudes better than its competitors, and this style of development cycle is the main reason why. This is what the secret sauce is, and people still don't get it.
Always be testing.

The magnetic field protects against losing atmosphere on a less massive planet like Mars which gets blowtorched without one and allows lighter gasses to escape Mars' gravity. Mars' current atmosphere has a lot more heavy isotopes of carbon and argon.
This is why Venus has no hydrogen (outside sulfuric acid) despite being earth-sized, the hydrogen got heated up, then got energy from the solar wind and sailed off into space.
Any terraforming naturally would be very expensive and you don't want your investment slowly blowing away and having to continuously top it off

>>16451188
can't have a working compass without

>>16451235
that's why you would paraterraform only over where you needed it

>>16451237
GPS makes this largely irrelevant

>>16451240
but gps is soulless

>you VILL use the electronic jew!

This, and additionally the resources and energy needed are tiny in comparison to global terraforming. The planet will gradually heal itself even if we do nothing.

If you can't navigate with the Martian moons and an ephemerides you don't deserve to make it

Earthers must be purged

Starlink is literally destroying our night skies and you muppets will still support it because musk owns it

>>16451264
And? Earth is on its way to becoming a hive world within the next century. You won't be able to see shit in the sky anyway

>>16451138
posted it again award.

"Starlink will destroy our night sky"
"SpaceX will pollute ozone"

This is the spacex equivalent of "Trump nazi"

Musk is blowing holes in the ionosphere and you're voting for his cheeto rapist pal? Ugh.

>>16451269
this was from 2006

>>16451275
oh yeah? well, uh, you're dutch!!!

City shitters shouldn't be allowed to talk about the night sky. LEDs have obliterated it.

Iridium is such a cool name for a sat constellation. Viasat is perfect for an uncreative but competent bureacracy which never wen tthrough a 'startup' culture.

I can predict if a company will succeed by its name. All companies which fail have retarded scam names.
SpaceX is such a good name that I thought it was from a comic book or something when I first heared it in 2008

Is anything sexier than a NASA worm on white aerospace hardware? It is eye candy; such a good simple but affective design

>>16451285
Because they went with cheaper, wider, and brighter instead of more expensive, dimmer, and more focused fixtures with less scatter.

>>16451264
Musk will also build up a solar power microwave transfer constellation

At first, I thought this post made sense, but on second thought, I think it's just a plant trying to make me accept and propagate a bullshit theory to discredit the REAL conspiracies.
Not today, CIA!
