The demand for bigger payloads is increasing. The launch pads can’t take the stress of launching larger rockets. IT IS TIME.

We’d need rockets like this to make a space elevator, at least the first one. We send up the raw materials and manufacturing plant in rockets and then lower the beanstalk down to earth. Then we send a bunch of earth made beanstalks, spooled up and ready to deploy, up that first one. It’s very possible, once we figure out the materials, which is probably impossible.

I had this stupid idea as a child after reading how some astronomical percentage of rocket fuel is to get the rocket 10 feet off the ground. (I forget exactly number)
You put the entire rocket 100 feet underwater and use air bladders to float it to the surface to gain momentum and just as it's breaking the surface you fire the rockets.

They don’t get to decide how they spend their money. It goes back to the government. Regardless of how much money NASA generates it has to keep writing grants and keep begging the government for money. I think as of now it’s getting .4 cents per dollar of the overall budget.

Just google NASA return on investment you fucking summer idiot. It might be closer to 1:8.

that problem has long since been solved, there hasn't been a naturally occurring famine on this planet since the 1860s. every subsequent famine was intentionally induced by politicians.

>>15554623
that concept won't work for the same reason musk's bottomless launch pad didn't work. the rocket would just bury itself in the ocean.
the only reason the sois itt are so sure it would work is because they saw it work in a cartoon and they are too dumb to differentiate between their childish cartoon fantasy lives and irl reality. high school physics should have taught them it can't work as depicted by they choose to believe in their gay cartoon world over reality because they are emotionally immature

It's not actually expanding the increase in F9 launches is due to SpaceX getting launches that would have otherwise gone to ESA/Roscosmos. The commercial launch market isn't growing, its just that SpaceX managed to get a bigger share. inb4 starlink, because that's an internal SpaceX operation and even Musk is saying its losing money
