In Berger's book, It was mentioned that the spacex people who went to astra couldn't get over the time spent on falcon one and the kind of 'life or death' situation they had. I don't think they really want to go back to spacex, not enough adrenaline involved.

Shuttle was gorgeous.
The way the orbiter has all those fucking HOT engines in the ass. The way they are angled upward slightly gets my ROCKS OFF. Look at all them holes. Shuttle had a perfectly shaped body and a big athletic bubble butt you could just fuck all day and night and go back for seconds even if she was struggling and saying no (Challenger). Buran was ahtletic, yeah, but in a way that looked kind of like she was dosing on roids and made her manly and unattractive. She had a totally flat man ass and never even put out apart from once.

This is the best I can dig up on short attention span notice. I'm no expect at visual tire identification but my guess would be solid rather than pressurized. They look a lot like the wheels you see on library book carts and those are solid rubberized plastic.

they stand to gain more than they could lose, considering you only have 1 company's worth of secrets but can have boomerangs coming in from 10+ others

also - in the case of spacex - none of their secrets are all that useful to their competitors, because the 'trade secrets' require their entire organizational structure and rapid iteration posture in order to actually work, which no other company has the balls to copy. BO/ULA/NASA especially would probably be even worse off for attempting to copy spacex (case in point: nuglenn) since they're allergic to being cheap and averse to simple solutions that don't require contractors in the districts of thirty different senators

If it's anything like the shuttle then those wheels are single use. The shuttle was not gentle with its own landing gear and got a new set of tires after each landing.

The rest of it seem to work well enough. It's a long duration test platform that lets you get your hardware back at the end of the mission and doesn't need to do its work in a public space the the ISS.

How long will Jeff Bezos continue to subsidize his New Shepard rocket?
---
https://arstechnica.com/space/2023/11/as-virgin-galactic-soars-blue-origins-new-shepard-remains-grounded/
> It is too strong to characterize the New Shepard rocket and spacecraft as a vanity program for Blue Origin and its founder, Jeff Bezos. After all, the company has learned some valuable lessons about vertical landing and rocket reuse that it will apply to the much larger New Glenn rocket. However, after New Shepard gave Bezos his much-desired ride to space in 2021, it's worth contemplating the purpose of the program going forward.
> Of Blue Origin's approximately 11,000 employees, about 400 people spend part or all of their time working on New Shepard. That is a small fraction of the company's overall workforce, but factoring in salaries, benefits, and programmatic expenses, a reasonable estimate is that New Shepard costs Blue Origin about $100 million a year to maintain and operate.
> Prior to the accident, the program averaged a flight roughly every eight to 10 weeks. Even doubling that cadence, it is very unlikely that New Shepard would come close to being revenue-neutral. As one person familiar with the company's finances told Ars, "It's definitely a money loser. Always has been." Another person told Ars that New Shepard is "hemorrhaging" money.
> It's impossible to know what is in Bezos' mind, of course. Ultimately, it will be his decision about whether New Shepard continues to fly. The program, which is managed in Washington state and flown out of West Texas, will last as long as he cares to subsidize it. But it is perhaps notable that Bezos just announced he is moving from Washington to Miami. Florida has no capital gains taxes (which is important when you're selling Amazon stock to fund Blue Origin on the regular), his parents are there, and his partner Lauren Sanchez loves the beach.

A historic Falcon 9 made a little more history Friday night
SpaceX didn't stop at 10 or 15 flights per booster, and probably won't stop at 20.
---
https://arstechnica.com/space/2023/11/a-historic-falcon-9-is-about-to-make-a-little-more-history-tonight/
> CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida—In three-and-a-half years of service, one of SpaceX's reusable Falcon 9 boosters stands apart from the rest of the company's rocket inventory. This booster, designated with the serial number B1058, has now flown 18 times. For its maiden launch on May 30, 2020, the rocket propelled NASA astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken into the history books on SpaceX's first mission to send people into orbit.
> This ended a nine-year gap in America's capability to launch astronauts into low-Earth orbit and was the first time a commercial spacecraft achieved this feat. At that time, the rocket was fresh from SpaceX's factory in Southern California, glistening white in color, with a bright red NASA "worm" logo emblazoned on the side.
> "I see the fight rate can only occur if I can increase reliability, so that they're not competing entities," a SpaceX official recently told Ars. The official also said SpaceX might extend the limit on Falcon 9 booster flights beyond 20, the number at which Falcon 9s are currently certified for Starlink missions. The limits are lower for flights with customer payloads.
> Friday night's mission marked SpaceX's 79th Falcon rocket launch of the year as the company marches toward 100 flights by the end of 2023. Next year, the goal is 144 launches, or an average of one flight every two-and-a-half days. After that, you can count on hundreds more Falcon 9 or Falcon Heavy flights before there's ever any serious talk of retiring those vehicles.

it can't take 20 years to get a project online?
> New Shepard is just one of many lines of business being pursued by Blue Origin. There is competition within the company for resources to build engines, big rockets, lunar landers, and even a space station. At Virgin Galactic, there is only suborbital space tourism. In other words, Blue Origin could end New Shepard and still be a major space company. At Virgin, it's the whole enchilada.

House bill would fully fund Mars Sample Return, block cooperation on ExoMars
---
https://spacenews.com/house-bill-would-fully-fund-mars-sample-return-block-cooperation-on-exomars/
WASHINGTON — House appropriators would fully fund NASA’s Mars Sample Return program despite its ongoing problems but halt the agency’s plans to cooperate with a European Mars mission.
> The House report, though, would fully fund MSR at $949.3 million, and instructs NASA to request the funding necessary in 2025 to ensure the MSR sample retrieval lander and Earth return orbiter missions launch by 2030.
> The report, though, refers to the “pending Independent Review Board’s results.” That board completed its work in September, concluding there was a “near zero probability” that MSR could stay on cost and schedule. It also concluded that the overall MSR program would cost between $8 billion and $11 billion, well above the $5.3 billion threshold mentioned in the Senate report.
> The funding for MSR in the House bill has ripple effects for other NASA programs. The House bill provides $7.38 billion for NASA science programs, slightly more than the $7.341 billion in the Senate bill. However, the House bill reduces funding for Earth science, astrophysics, heliophysics and biological and physical sciences compared to the Senate bill, which had already been cut in most cases from the agency’s request.

SpaceX Evolution (Chapter 8)
--
https://chrisprophet.substack.com/p/spacex-evolution-chapter-8
> SpaceX have achieved much, due to their carefully designed corporate architecture and strategic placement, in arguably the most entrepreneurial country and state in the world. However, to take it to the next level they need to set their own rules, free from national regulation. SpaceX have long butted heads with regulators and struggled with bureaucracy,1 so making a fresh start somewhere on their own terms is the logical solution.
> Hence they intend to open a whole new world, one where they alone have access – the planet Mars. Coincidentally this new world has rich surface deposits of iron for shipbuilding, plus carbon dioxide and water for propellant production – even low atmospheric pressure and gravity, making it an ideal place to launch spacecraft. Earth is relatively resource rich but its gravity is too high to effectively launch spacecraft, which usually require large and inefficient boosters to reach orbit. However, on Mars the same spacecraft can launch direct to orbit sans booster, with sufficient propellant left over to perform deep space operations, without need for further refueling. So SpaceX want Mars for operational reasons, to forge their own future, free from national control and stultifying bureaucracy.

>>15840027
> Expertise – SpaceX intend to use Starship as the first habitat on Mars – and need to produce their own propellant to ensure it meets their exact specification for Starship’s advanced Raptor engines. This implies they would have to send their own technical personnel to maximize the chance of success, because they have the greatest expertise with this equipment. Starship was designed, built and tested exclusively by their personnel, so they are the logical choice to maintain it both in transit and on the surface of Mars. Similarly the air separator plant they designed and built at Boca Chica could be seen as a prototype for the ISRU (In Situ Resource Utilization) equipment needed to produce methalox propellant on Mars, hence their engineers have enormous hands-on experience.
> Cost – NASA currently pay SpaceX ~$0.5bn to send four astronauts to the International Space Station for six months, including all necessary supplies and equipment. This suggests a four-year mission to Mars could cost NASA in excess of $4bn. However, SpaceX would need to send many of their own personnel to manage Starship and propellant production on Mars, plus maintain a large mission control staff to manage the expedition. Hence a more reasonable figure to send a team of four NASA astronauts might be $8bn, which is probably too much for congress to swallow in one lump. However, if these same astronauts were sent during the following Earth-Mars launch window, they would only have to wait two years for return, which implies costs could drop to a more manageable $4bn, an entirely more palatable number.

Of course this move would also serve a strategic goal, Mars promises to become the perfect place for SpaceX to set-up their headquarters and flourish; free from national tithes, ties and regulations (see Appendix C: Why SpaceX Not NASA). This move seems almost inevitable given the number of secondary benefits it would also provide: -

>The 260: The Largest Solid Rocket Motor Ever Tested
>Aerojet in the mid 1960s, under contract to NASA, built and static hot fire tested the largest solid rocket motor in history for the purpose of demonstrating the feasibility of utilizing large SRMs for space exploration. This program successfully fabricated two high strength steel chambers, loaded each with approximately 1,68 million pounds of propellant, and static test fired these giants with their nozzles up from an underground silo located adjacent to the Florida everglades. Maximum thrust and total impulse in excess of 5,000,000 lbf and 3,470,000,000 lbf-sec were achieved. Flames from the second firing, conducted at night, were seen over eighty miles away. For comparative purposes: the thrust developed was nearly 100 times that of a Minuteman III second stage and the 260 in.-dia cross-section was over 3 times that of the Space Shuttle SRM.

It's not that they haven't gotten the message, I think it's that there are some in NASA who understand the kind of situation the organization is in, and see only one way out. The only non-grift (read: semi-functional) project they have which can't just be extinguished by the whims of congress is the ISS, which is because it is a direct result of international cooperation and can't be cancelled without making a diplomatic statement of some sort, intended or otherwise. From NASA's perspective, that situation is the only way they can wrestle some sort of control out of the hands of congress and the cost-plus mafia, so they're going to try it over and over again no matter what. It's why the Artemis accords exist in the first place.

>ditching the American half of the International Solar Polar Probe
>dragging them through a hundred down-budgetings and redesigns for Space Station Freedom
>treating them like second class partners in the Spacelab program, despite Europe being the one that actually built the thing that let the Shuttle do most of its crewed science missions
>cutting funding for Exomars from the 2012 budget, forcing them to get into bed with Roscosmos

and now after their Russian partnership imploded we implied that we'd be fine going back to the old arrangement, only wait! Now we're not. Again. And these are just the things that I can remember. This goes back so much further than InSight.
