[sung to the tune of Back in the USSR]

Headin’ up from Santa’s House to Madagascar
Don’t catch me in a tin fan flyin’ East
Pole to pole, man you must think I’m very bizarre
Too bad my hatred for Earthers can’t be policed

I’m in a polar orbit
I’ve been here before, but
I’ve never had this kind of view
…….
I’m flying north to south, and
Don’t misunderstand, man
I’ve always got my eyes on you

Lost five percent of delta-v, just to reach this apogee
Had to get away from the human disease
Your filthy race, it fills me with such apathy
But it’s okay, my inclination’s 90 degrees

I’m in a polar orbit
I’ve been here before, but

Strict consensus is not needed. The DOJ is within the executive branch and can bring antitrust cases. All that's needed is a few federal judges and they can ram anything through. That kind of bullshit would probably need to survive Supreme Court review, which is unlikely for now, but that's still a long way from needing consensus.

Let's see.
Musk probably sold a majority of his shares at the top to buy Twitter. Tesla is now less than half from the top while Twitter is also less than half from when Elon bought.
so all in all, I think Eloncuck is breakeven but he has the benefits of diversification and he has a tool to control discourse while also being able to complain that he bought it for a "loss" to save democracy.
so the cuck actually benefited. lol, lmao even.

>Violent Spiral of the Gulf Cartel

>The CDG's control of the Brownsville-Matamoros crossing to the key criminal economies outlined above stretches back to the 1930s and a whisky runner named Juan Nepomuceno Guerra. Guerra's relatives kept control of contraband across the Rio Grande for decades, although the CDG name was only established in the 1980s.

>This enviable criminal legacy has now been broken. The Gulf Cartel is no longer united. The capture and killing of several key leaders, and long-running feuds with the Zetas and their descendants, the Northeast Cartel (Cartel del Noreste – CDN), have seen the CDG become more of a franchise. Colorfully named splinter groups, each based in a different part of Tamaulipas and neighboring states, waver between alliances and shootouts.

Nope.
First of all, they have no legal case to point at. And even if they invented something and pushed this to a court, it would still fail.
Breaking the current status quo on minimal antitrust oversight is not something you can "just do". This would be a cataclysmic political move should it actually pass. Last time anything remotely similar was done was over 40 years ago, before globalism was really a thing.

If they actually break up SpaceX or Tesla, that sets a precedent to break up all the other monopolies, conglomerates and confiscate billionaire wealth just for being too large/influential.
It would be a complete political suicide for anyone who would even seriously suggest such a thing.

This fight would not be US government vs. Elon Musk
It would be a few politicians within the government vs. most politicians, most major corporations, their lobbyists, their lawyers and their withdrawal of donations for elections
I don't know how about you, but I wouldn't bet on the former (for good or bad).

Space is completely outside the normal human experience. You have to study it and really think about its physical properties to get it right, you can't just reason by analogy.

China won’t kick out musk because they are grooming him.
Everytime he gets called a chud by libtards he gets pushed closer to them, or at least that’s what the Chinese think.
They have successfully poached disenfranchised ex-Air Force pilots before, so I guess musk would be like their crown jewel or something if they can poach him.

They will happily bully and bankrupt other car makers however, as they don’t really have anything to offer.

Are you fucking retarded? If the definition of plane was determined by L/D, there would be no space planes because they can't fly in any normal sense. You literally need to take a regular aircraft and put the thrusters to full reverse just mimic the flight characteristics of the Shuttle. Starship doesn't even have wings, they're control surfaces and it's terminal velocity is in the hundreds of m/s

The Shuttle was a lifting body, which isn't a plane. It was colloquially considered a plane because people are retarded and it was good marketing. How do you not see how dumb it is to still insist that Starship is a plane despite its flight characteristics being so much worse than something that actually had wings but still fell out of the air?

If you jumped out of Starship during descent and assumed the sky diving position, you would fall at about half the rate of Starship, ~50 m/s. Are you a plane?

The extra large wings were only on shuttle because of autistic cross range requirements that it never even ended up using. And you’re arguing that shuttle basically fell out of the sky, and that starship does the same thing. In that case starship meets the same requirements as shuttle to be called a space plane

This reasoning makes no sense, I'm arguing that neither is a plane but there is a difference between something that falls out of the air but can at least bleed off enough speed to land horizontally and something that doesn't even have wings and will only ever leave a crater on the ground without propulsive landing.

That appears to be happening, he cozied up to both Obama and Trump but didn't seem to be the case with Biden, the lefty people certainly pushed Elon away after his free speech stuff, which he seemed to honestly believe and came from a moral non-political place, at first anyway. Hopefully he knows that he can't lean too much into right-wing stuff or the biden admin will totally shaft him somehow.

The Tesla China stuff seems like a win win all round, more profit for Tesla will mostly help the USA economy and any of the reunification stuff being done peacefully would be preferable to any kind of war, it's de-escalatory in nature which is obviously good. If it were ever to be a possibility then it would have to come down to a vote which the Taiwanese would obviously reject so just seems like a good business deal from musk.

Free Speech wasn't the thing that pushed Musk away. It was them trying to kill Tesla by shutting down his ONLY factory during the ramp up of Model 3. In the name of covid, they wanted to kill Tesla. Then because he pushed back, they fined SpaceX and Musk had it with the woke nonsense since then. He moved to Texas, he invested ~20 billion dollars in Texas in both SpaceX/Tesla as well as all his other minor companies. He'll likely move out SpaceX headquarters to Boca or the new SpaceX facility near Bastrop once Starship starts launching regularly and keep a engineering crew down at California.

>a "roving base" that would, in a single ambitious piloted mission, explore multiple candidate base sites and the terrain between them along an 11,000-kilometer traverse route. He called his roving base Nomad Explorer.
>The chief element of the Nomad Explorer roving base was the 35-tonne Very Long Traverse Vehicle (VLTV), which would measure 16 meters long, 4.5 meters wide, and 10 meters high. The VLTV would roll on four large wheels, each powered independently by a 120-horsepower electric motor. The complex wheels would change shape automatically to accommodate obstacles and ensure a smooth ride. Typically, the VLTV would move at about 20 kilometers per hour, though it could trundle along at up to 30 kilometers per hour if necessary.
>The VLTV would provide its three-person crew with 600 cubic meters of pressurized volume. It would include a control cockpit, crew quarters, a meeting room/galley, an airlock, and a hygiene facility.

>Thangavelu proposed a novel system for providing the Nomad Explorer roving base with electricity — an automated "power cart" bearing a nuclear reactor that would follow about a kilometer behind the VLTV to limit crew radiation exposure. It would supply 50 kilowatts of electricity to the piloted rover either through a long durable cable or through intermittent microwave beaming. An auxiliary fuel cell/solar cell system on the VLTV would provide 10 kilowatts of backup electricity.

Even taking "only" 25 tons of cargo to the moon would outdo all of Apollo combined on every trip, and allow bootstrapping a base pretty quickly. The real trick will be setting up redundant beamed power solar sats in lunar orbit to avoid the need for nuclear reactors for long term base usage.

Is that supposed to make me think "wow, that is a perfectly reasonable amount for a single country to pay annually in order to support the most expensive source of power in history"? Only one reactor there was built before the 70s and it was a 13 MW test reactor.

No it's not and you have to go back. Not a single person who actually works for any spaceflight company releases sensitive information over there, which would violate their nondisclosure agreement. Their admin gives over the IP and payment processing information of anyone who does that, which you would know if you weren't a complete newfag.

"L2 said _____" actually means some random boomer over than said something and most of the time it turns out to be wrong or it's just something they got off a twitter.

I doubt the average midwit will be able to refrain from doing that when they get into a dumb argument and think about internet "influencers" or whatever you want to call them, they'll be forced to use it or lose engagement. It doesn't matter if you verified that an account belongs to a real person when copy paste exists.

Expendable Starship here means expending the booster too, which HLS won't do.
HLS will be at its delta-v margins so they might eat into payload to make it work.
Expect 50-100 tons of downmass to the lunar surface. Remember that this includes all interior structure and furnishing, the two airlocks, the elevators, food, water and all the payload.

The 4 grid fins are arranged in a 120-60-120-60 pattern, unlike the equal spacing on Falcon 9. Elon stated in the first @erdayastronaut

There have been 2 grid fin designs to date. The first debuted on B4 and was a 4x4 grid pattern. B7 introduced a new design with a tighter 6x6 grid. Both of these have been made of welded steel unlike those cut from a single titanium block on Falcon 9 . (5/10)

Before we get into how the grid fins are actually moved, let’s look at the fins themselves. The back side has 1 large pivot point in the middle and a smaller attachment point coming off of it to connect to the motor. (7/10)

F9 and Super Heavy have way different flight profiles. F9 grid fins used to be aluminum but they had to coat it with a new ablative paint coat every flight, and got tired of needing to do inspections/a fresh coat after every flight so they switched to Titanium. SH experiences way less heating so they can get away with steel grid fins

They probably don't know if it's viable. Aluminum was viable too on Falcon 9 but only for one flight.
Hypersonic flow in general and heating in particular is still super difficult to simulate.
I think a general rule of thumb is the bigger the craft the further the shockwave is away so the booster might have an easier time.
That being said they could have welded titanium maybe. Picrel applies

Would be funny if the booster crashes into them, shears them off the tower and they just pick em off the ground and reinstall.

This is complete conjecture so take this with a grain of salt, but SX have a lot of experience with Falcon 9 in terms of using every drop of fuel down to the last second. I think optimally they want Falcon to literally run out of fuel as it touched the ground
So with the hop campaign they were already running on very low fuel and figured 2 engines with higher output was better than 3 engines that would burn through that fuel way more quickly. Basically they thought they could get away with being a little more “efficient” but it turns out it’s just easier to run with three engines doing the heavy lifting.
This could be completely wrong though, as I said

Yeah. You're horizontal at terminal velocity and need to end up upright at zero velocity right on the ground.
Given those contraints you either start flipping higher up and land with two engines or you start flipping lower and land with three.
Gravity loss is time dependent so the faster you decelerate to zero the less fuel is required.
Fuel optimal landing is firing three engines at 50m altitude, swinging around ASAP and touching down with three engines still firing.
Although it could be more like first two then three because the horizontal velocity you add at first needs to be canceled out.

I mean it's not likely to happen that way.
Falcon 9 lands with a 3 then 1 engine sequence while fuel optimal would be all 9 all the way.
The margins for propulsive landings are just paper thin so you opt for more margin and throw away an inconsequential amount of deltavee.
