Elon is also right. In his existential terror. We have like an ongoing window where nuclear tier technologies are going to start coming on line in the next 10-40 years.

The reason the States is at the cutting edge isn't for fun. It's for fear. It's terror at the potential devastation.

It's over Musk. You angered the nation with your immature behavior with regards to the pandemic. You will never again be allowed to move at full speed as a constant reminder of your disregard for the lives of your fellow humans.
As a result, SpaceX is done for now. The next generation isn't going to be Musk, Bezos, ULA, or any of the other backwards posers.
Relativity Space is the future of rocketry. They're making the world's largest metallic 3D printer, so they can make rockets in 10% of the time with only a fraction of the part count. The photo is of the Relativity Space team that will bring humanity into the future.

Reminder that the major mechanical time-phases of the Apollo missions can be compared with each other due to (usually) similar profiles.

The seconds of the major mechanical events over the Apollo missions are all well-documented-basically staging, undocking, redocking, landing, taking off, etc. This is a well-defined numerical data set which lets you do fun "power rankings"/comparisons between the missions.

So, I know that at one point, dragon was going to have propulsive landing with the superdracos and now they’re just used for launch abort. I wonder if as a last contingency, they have enough fuel onboard to perform a (semi) soft landing in water without hurting the crew/destroying the capsule. Would seem nice as a last resort if all else fails

Yeah I asked this a few months ago and a few people just laughed at me and said “what fuel are you going to use?????”
But like i’m pretty sure it still has plenty of fuel? Does it even use the superdracos in space? My original question was “do you guys think Dragon even has software loaded in to use the engines in an emergency if the parachuted fail?”

Nothing. The core separates at like 11 km/s it’s going so fast that unless it has a giant heat shield it would burn up. The best thing to do is to add parachutes to the boosters, and to shit out the engines Vulcan-style

Wtf, I would think it would at least have the option right? The likelihood of a parachute failure is extremely, extremely low. But never zero. And you have systems in place to save your ass. Why not use it just in case? I could understand an argument for something like starliner not doing this. Their LES motors probably can't do anything. But Dragon's could quite literally hoverslam you onto the water safely

Anon, there's an active movement to do away with it.
They're out here tearing down Washington and Jefferson statues. Rushmore is on the chopping block. I hope we wake up before it happens.
>>12655200
We'll see.
The reason these "decolonization" efforts haven't made inroads in aerospace engineering is because of the necessity that America be able to compete with its adversaries. Plus, that most hard sciences have issues with the social scientists.
But the social scientists control the media and have been putting themselves into important government positions since the '60s.

300 meter tall Rushmore in some cliff face of Valles Marineris, carved by autonomous drone swarms under the guidance of talented sculptors.
Several kilometer tall "Rushmore" in a titanic cavern found deep in the Lunar crust, discovered by a diplomatic team attempting to establish contact with techno-shaman cults. The figures depicted are unfamiliar but unmistakably human, and the sculptors are unknown.

Shuttle boosters were reused a lot it’s just they mixed and matched the components around so it wasn’t just one booster flying ten times it was more like one segment flying five times being mated to another segment which flew a dozen times.

Dedicated artists are probably the last persons you would want on a colony. Scientists and explorers first, then more and more specialized engineers (mining, agriculture, construction, energy). Eventually you'll need cooks, teachers, security, doctors, and clergy to tend to the people themselves once the population becomes large enough. Most artists wouldn't need to travel to Mars to do their job. The only Martian artists we'd see for a long time would do art in their spare time, or as a side project.

It's a very small data set and they all had to be good boys and follow instructions (mostly), or else they wouldn't have been picked. And as the program developed, naturally the later missions were more ambitious. What makes the comparisons interesting is the general profile idea (suggesting a norm), versus the individual character of each mission (which always defeats that idea). Along the same lines, here's a sheet specifically on LM flight and stay times. Apollo 16 had a platform problem which required orbiting longer than anybody else, yet Cernan's combined logged LM time (and going twice) naturally made him the most experienced LM pilot. This, despite his personal freakout during the 10 episode. It's interesting to read the transcripts on 10. Cernan is constantly cursing, "they'll kill us yet". He's uneasy all round the period before and after Snoopy's staging, while Stafford keeps cool. The importance of crew psychology.

Materials, manufacturing processes, etc. have changed a lot since the 60's. They could make new F-1's if they really wanted to, but it would be very expensive and you'd end up with a less efficient engine than if you designed a new one utilizing all the advancements made since the 60's.

The RS-25 is only about ten years younger than the F-1 and look at the price tag on those. At this point scaling up the Merlin engine would probably give you much better kerolox performance due to higher chamber pressure, better TWR, etc., but if you're making a modern design anyway just use Raptors.

Yeah, but with FAA-tier autism of "but why are your expendable prototypes fail to land when the primary purpose of that specific test is not even landing?" it might still average out to be faster in the end. The only question is ROI because he still needs to aim to run a self-sustaining business.

Well the launch cost of a reused Falcon 9 costs SpaceX 28 million internally. Its probable that adding the crew dragon to the equation, especially since it was designed around 2014, raises the cost by 2-4 million per flight (lets say 4 million since the trunk is expended) which would mean 32 million dollars per 7 people, or around 5 million dollars per flight. However, they are only using 4 seats for this flight, so the actual minimal cost of a seat to orbit should be around 8.5 million. So I'm guessing this anon >>12655740 is right.

Raw concrete is a hallmark of brutalism. The other movement we had that built on brutalism isn't much better where they would "pretty" up the raw concrete with various rocks mixed into the concrete and sandblast part of the concrete off.
Growing up in Norway in the 80s was like living in a grey dystopia of concrete.

Starships will need to be able to withstand having Boosters carrying other Starships launching nearby, as well as having Starships launch off of Moon/Mars from nearby as well. Like you said these prototypes are already obsolete, so why not test?

The government doesn't but the corporations do on their behalf. Big corporations and the government are essentially synonymous at this point, their incestuous relationship has made them one and the same. The USA used to be a country with many explicit regional distinctions, this has changed over time and the country has gradually become more culturally monolithic. Partly by accident with the invention of mass communications, but increasingly more and more by design through the abuse of such mass communciation.

Replying to myself (how sad): sapphire cam has a good view now. It looks like they're manoeuvering it on to the road, presumably to get it out of the danger zone. No way are they leaving it there because it's right next to the landing pad at the moment, and having a heavy lift crane is critical.

Astra is going public via SPAC. The deal also grants them $500 million in cash and values the company at $2.1 billion.
Over 50 launches are currently scheduled. They're planning on launching their first commercial payload this summer, achieving a monthly launch cadence by the end of the year, and hope to launch daily by 2025.
It'll be interesting to see if a real space company can handle being publicly traded. There's definitely more going on behind the scenes at Astra than meets the eye.

Astra tried to launch for DARPA. They failed, and then I think the rocket blew up on the pad.
They then had a launch where the engines cut around 20 seconds in.
In the most recent attempt, they made it significantly through second stage burn but fell just short of orbit. Their vagueness with mission milestones during launch, along with their support of BLM, has earned them the enmity of /sfg/. They'll probably reach orbit next time though.

The court assumes the general public is retarded because they generally are.
If you order a road closure you are legally responcible for enforcing it, most of the time this is done by physically blocking the road with traffic control staff to tell people to fuck off.
SpaceX failed to enforce the closure thus it was a breach of the closure contract.

All testing that could affect public safety at the Boca Chica, Texas, launch site was suspended until the investigation was completed and the FM approved the company's corrective actions to protect public safety.

Sure but all of this safety nonsense of crying over every spilled brain case is really just an excuse to step in and expand bureaucratic power fundamentally they don't care about the loss of human life and only use it as an excuse to step in and give themselves more power, or any potential harm is another avenue for political power, an office, with some rules, with a ballooning budget year over year.

Almost every crazy thing old civilizations did had a much less high hypochondriac obsession with keeping every peasant alive. Crossing the oceans, building the great wonders, trading things across the world in simple galleys. I'm not saying go full blood for the blood god but if some idiot violating range restrictions gets cooked by starship exhaust he should neither be mourned nor should it impact the launch of subsequent ships.

Private company operating an explosive tank. There are many regulations with regards to what a private company can or cannot do in the US. For example, years ago effects of storing chemicals inside storage facilities within cities weren't properly understood. This resulted in many accidents related to leaks/fire/hazards which would later force the companies to either move their facilities away from cities or create them where public isnt around. SpaceX Starship test tanks have already blown up few times, many other rocket companies have blown up rockets few times, US has blown up rockets few times, during testing and in flight. FAA may simply be following these standard procedures. Ofcourse SpaceX is in a fairly isolated part of the state with very little people(this was partly to mitigate the risk to general public but also prime location), but you can't fix people's stupidity and you can't fix people's ignorance. So these regulations maybe there to protect the unwilling or the uninitiated. Ofcourse this frustrates Elon/SpaceX since they've done all they can on their part and delaying more for random events only further slows their process down.

I have ordered road closures as part of my job, cops can be hired to help but close a lot more than professional traffic controlers.

Also fun fact not many people know, the cost of closing a road isn't cheap with higher traffic roads costing more. Also closing it longer than requested comes with huge hourly fees for going over time.
I worked for a pretty big construction company that went bankrupt because a crane fell on a closed major road and kept it shut 6 hours over time.

It would take me like two hours to try and navigate the arcane legal filings and FAA archives to try and find a copy of their license which might not be there. I think the byzantine nature of law in the US already invalidates it as a common law system on its face, besides all of its abuses over the decades.

https://beta.documentcloud.org/documents/20416090-wr_for_spacex_construction_508

The closest think I can find is this environmental assessment thing from may and I assume the FAAgots said that the unaccounted for explosion on the pad had environmental violations. So within their abusive and tyrannical laws using the environment as an excuse to micromanage every large project in the country they could certainly delay it indefinitely. However of course their is no common law legitimacy to any of these processes.

Under how the EIA laws are written you can literally delay a project forever on nonsense if you so wish it and you can keep coming up with some downstream excuse because environmental impacts are so broad and vague. It is perfect for outside meddling or extracting huge rents, just push the EIA longer and the contract goes over cost real fast.

I'm not saying they are perfect but you need to remember why they exist.
"We didn't think of that" was a get out of jail free for all kinds of fucked shit so now they need to prove they have put effort into trying to think of everything.

Here is Australia EIA's aren't too bad as there is a 2 year limit for challenges but our coon site protecting laws are fucked. I worked an iron mine in the desert that was uninhabitable and no coons had ever claimed to live in until iron was found and suddenly there was a "sacred tree" in the middle of the planned pit location. They were fine with the free being removed to dig the pit, for a price.

AFAIK, rocketdyne did the leg work of designing and building the engine. german expertise was very important on one point as the design of the V2 directly affected the development of the F-1. in initial tests the F-1 combustion chamber was so large that it suffered from combustion instability. the germans had figured out during the war that putting baffles inside the combustion chamber would help stabilise the reaction, so that was incorporated into the design. the russians never figured that out, which is why they had to use 40 or so engines at once on the N1 first stage, which in turn led to the whole project being a disaster.

the most powerful russian engines would eventually around this by using multiple combustion chambers with a single pump.

*YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWN*

Oh hey there wagecuck. Halfway through the week, hopefully you don’t have another breakdown before your designated recreational time at the end of the week.

Me? Well life isn’t easy being a NEETgod, right now I’m stuck deciding what I’m going to do with all time today. Hey! Maybe you can help me choose! I’ve narrowed it down to a few options:

- Play a round of golf (beat my country clubs record last week!)
- Learn a new field of science
- Write and record a new symphony
- Fuck my wageslave neighbours girlfriend
- Take my Ferrari for a spin
- Or perhaps just chill out with a nice book

This will be the closest you get to actually being free, by living through me.

>>	Anonymous Tue Feb 2 13:37:39 2021 No.12657279 >>12657251 Its not gonna launch before your work. Its going to take 1-2 hours just to get it ready. So likely it will happen after you get to work. Just watch it with co-workers.

BEEP BEEP BEEP Oh noes, is that your alarm clock? Better rise and shine wagie! Doesn’t matter that the sun isn’t even up yet, time waits for no man, and neither does Mr. Shekelstein. He needs you to slave away to get him those hard earned shekels. But its okay. You’ll have two or three hours of free time tonight after you sit in traffic for two hours trying to get home.

And what will I be doing all this time? Well, my novel is almost finished, I believe I’ve told you about it before, and I’m learning three musical instruments. Basically I’m living as man was meant to live. I haven’t even had to leave the house in a month. So no sitting in traffic for me.

Have a nice day!

>values the company at $2.1 billion
Kek, what a ripoff for a company whose sole business in a few years will be collecting small contracts from the government, if they don't become bankrupt like what will happen with most of the smallsat launchers.

I fucking hate Astra but I bought some shares anyway so I'm not fuming if it pumps more and I miss out. I am such a gutless capitalist, I did try to place my order at $14.88 but it filled under that so I failed.
