I've been shitting like crazy and it may be my anxiety about this license situation. What if they really don't grant it? they cant launch next week and all these holidays stopping the FAA. This could drag on longer and longer, that hearing really didnt help. Maybe made FWS even more bold.

The other one, these are all distinct answers, the top one is really just "starship fully suceeds" lets be honest here. I think that vote is dumb when hot staging is such a point of contention along with Raptors 100% going to shut off, fractional orbit failure anons are reasonable though, they could get it right first time but Raptors are just too big of a concern to ignore this time around. The launch would have to be absolutely perfect to get to reentry failure, at which that point yeah Starship tiling DEFINETLY wont hold up considering some JUST fell off while at that pad. Whichever one of you morons voted for full success needs to be put in a mental institution or in the hot staging ring before launch

If the exhaust gasses of the 6 second-stage engines tear a hole in the top of the booster and then the booster explodes and a concussive shockwave/debris fucks up the rear of starship before itโs far enough away to be safe. We saw what raptors did to a bunch of concrete during IFT1, a thin/fragile stainless steel rocket might not fare well!

Ok, so each raptor outputs a max of between 510-570 tonnes. Not sure the surface area itโs spread out to by the time it gets to the top of the booster, or what throttle profile they will use. But itโs a lot of force on a part of the rocket that is optimized to be as light as possible. I hope it works (and I think it probably will, if not in this flight than in one soon after). Thereโs a ton of ways to make it work (better armor on the booster, taller interstage, more gradual throttle profile, etc) so itโs not an insurmountable material science/engineering problem but spacex sometimes tests marginal designs in the hopes that they work, so this could be one of those high risk, high reward designs like not having a showerhead on stage 0 for ift1

Its not just "NET", SpaceX is clearly prepping for November 17th specifically. They're even scheduling the stream for November 17th. This *really* indicates they've talked with the FAA and the Fish fucks and that they know the license will be granted before that point.

The cool thing about that is under NEPA, there's nothing about mitigating or preventing environmental damage. The only thing NEPA and by extension the FWS cares about, is fully documenting the environmental effects of something. Even if it turns out the water deluge kills 100 plovers a day, FWS can still just complete consultation and get a launch license.

A reminder than Mike can't even derive the QI "prediction" for dark matter/rotation curves. The paper he derived it in is demonstrably wrong and he accepts this. So how does he even know what the result is? Because he literally just copied the MOND equations. All he has done is invent some sophistry to repackage those decades old equations.
Also there was a new paper on wide binaries from a staunch MOND proponent this week, showing that MOND is rejected over simple Newtonian gravity.

If I had to guess, Impulse is going to be one lf the most successful companies doing spacetugs
Kind of doubt SpaceX is going to go into it substantially, easier to just buy from impulse
A bit like one of the Tesla co-founders (jb straubel) starting a battery recycling company (redwood materials) and now straubel becoming a board member at tesla
I think its about giving some space to one of the driving forces behind the original company but also a way for them to create something they own by themselves without elon but they can still work with them later
Musk has said multiple times they try to outsource as much as possible, but often there just isnt anything good enough out there (price, performance, supplier that listens to them)

Impulse are cool, i wonder if they are working on anything starship sized.
Starship is pretty in-efficient for taking small payloads up to high energy orbits, you could imagine a re-usable tug that could come to pick up a payload in LEO, take on fuel from starship and then boost it up to higher orpits, GEO or even further.

I often think that the world peaked in the 20th century. Average Joe was able to build a house, provide for the family as a sole breadwinner. Now both husband and a wife have to wageslave for their rented flat. And that's assuming you get married, because doing so nowadays is pretty much a trap.

no, it's a vacuum engine with a shortened bell.
it doesn't increase performance, it does the opposite.
spacex only uses it when the performance of the full size bell is not necessary, because it is significantly cheaper. the second stage engine bell is made of an expensive niobium alloy because it's radiatively cooled and thus needs to remain stiff at extremely high temperatures

This is nonsense. All of Starlink burning up in space would pose insignificant chemical issue because the chemicals that are on the Starlinks are also on meteors that regularly hit Earth and burn up in atmosphere in 100000x the abundance . So the FUD is unjustified.

On the Payload Pathfinder podcast the Firefly CEO said that MLV will eventually be reusable, but the first couple launches will be expendable just to speed up the process and get space station resupply missions going as early as 2025 in lieu of Antares which was retired

Qualcomm ends partnership for connecting Android phones to Iridium satellites,
---
https://spacenews.com/qualcomm-ends
> TAMPA, Fla. โ Semiconductor giant Qualcomm is scrapping plans to provide the technology Android smartphones would need to directly connect to Iridiumโs satellites when they canโt reach a cell tower.
> Despite successfully developing and demonstrating a chip enabling everyday phones to connect with satellites for SOS, texts, and other low-bandwidth messaging services, Iridium announced Nov. 9 that no smartphone makers have included Qualcommโs enabling technology in their devices.
> Price was likely a contributing factor, according to William Blair analyst Louie DiPalma.
> โQualcomm conveyed to us that even though the Iridium service was functional and available for smartphone manufacturers to incorporate in their phones, the smartphone manufacturers did not have a โline of sight on the monetization modelsโ,โ he said in a note to investors.
> โThis implies that smartphone manufacturers were concerned about the economics and were objecting to the price Qualcomm was charging.โ
> SpaceX and other companies, including startups Lynk Global and AST SpaceMobile, are developing satellites that would connect to smartphones already in circulation via partnerships with mobile operators and the standards they use.

> TAMPA, Fla. โ Avanti Communications is in talks to procure capacity from a low Earth orbit (LEO) operator to transform into a provider of multi-orbit broadband services, the British regional geostationary satellite operator announced Nov. 10.
> โOur new global positioning means we will have the ability to provide coverage worldwide,โ Whitehill said, โwe will be led by the needs of our customers.โ
> Avanti has a fleet of five geostationary satellites, giving it Ka-band broadband coverage across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
> Whitehill said Avanti aims to bring multi-orbit services into use next year, suggesting SpaceXโs Starlink or OneWeb is the LEO operator as other broadband constellations in development are years away from global commercial service.

Transportation Department official suggests industry help pay for FAA commercial space office

https://spacenews.com/transportatio
> WASHINGTON โ A top Department of Transportation official suggested the launch industry should help pay for additional resources for the Federal Aviation Administrationโs commercial space office.
> Speaking at a virtual meeting of the FAAโs Commercial Space Transportation Advisory Committee (COMSTAC) Nov. 8, Polly Trottenberg, deputy secretary of transportation, all but rejected calls from industry to sharply increase the budget of the FAAโs Office of Commercial Space Transportation, or AST, to deal with growing levels of launch activity.
> Asked about increasing ASTโs budget, Trottenberg said there were competing priorities elsewhere in the FAA, noting that the aviation did not receive as much support in last yearโs Bipartisan Infrastructure Law as other modes of transportation. โI donโt think we made the commensurate investments on the aviation side,โ she said, including in โthe bread-and-butter systems of the FAA.โ
> She proposed that it may be time for industry to contribute some portion of additional revenues needed for enhancing AST. โWeโre an agency that has the ability to generate revenue and I think thatโs going to be a question for this industry,โ she said, adding that she was offering her own opinion and not that of the department itself.

No. The stage is too small for the reentry cone to not enclose around the engine area leading to totally slagged hardware. In case you forgot that all capsules when they crash into the water are basically covered in soot all the way to the top of their bodies. The bell might survive reentry down, but the rest of the components that support it won't. Which would lead to a total loss of the engine hardware anyway, and thus rendering the entire endeavor moot.

you can probably launch memesats with the thing (not to a high orbit), but without rapid reuse and a big market for that reuse it would definitely be more epensive than an expendable stage. Even Starship only makes sense if orbital refuelling can be made easy

Swap the fixed-diameter heatshield with a 10m inline inflatable with parachutes and I've pulled this off in KSP. It requires a mass on the heatshield end though or the smallest vibration spins it around. I use a tank with lead in it.
