The Space One is also a partnership between Canon and Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries. IHI builds the Epsilon and the boosters for the H-II and H3, so solids are kinda their wheelhouse. There's just not much domestic liquid propulsion experience in Japan outside of hydrogen for the LE-5/7/9 and no one is crazy enough to try and build a small launch vehicle using hydrogen.

The Vis Viva equation gives 7934,68 m/s at Pe and 7712,47 at Ap. But that would be the case for a planet without atmosphere. Irl you need much more to overcome drag. Such an orbit is impossible to begin with.
The "99% orbital velocity" is a fallacy. You need 9200+ m/s to reach a minimum 140 km orbit due to gravity losses and drag.

Still misleading, anywhere below 70 km or so you are bleeding speed with each second while getting roasted. 50 km is betting for a sure reentry. So it is not an orbit, as the ship will never rise again to Ap. You can't be 99% orbital as you can't be 99% pregnant.

Nope. Constraints rule out certain particle candidates, not dark matter.
And in the mean time what is the status of the best alternative? MOND disagrees with most of the data available, it's proponents are now adding dark matter.

>>16072506
Nope. The measurements of high redshift galaxies make many assumptions and require one to model all of the normal components which are more complex than DM (star formation, hydrodynamics, cooling, supernovae). And the high redshift measurements from Hubble show no discrepancy.
The most sensational claims are based on unconfirmed candidate galaxies. Many of which have already been dropped or debunked.

Most physicists dont believe in sterile dark matter though. Most believe it's normal matter that interacts with the weak force, like neutrinos. There's good theoretical reasons to believe that, but most important is that the hypothesis is testable. if dark matter is regular matter and only interacts with gravity, it'd be retarded fucking hard to detect. nothing precludes that from being the case

The Nazis were still authoritarian socialists. The German economy was about to collapse in 1939 and the only reason it didn't was because they were able to start propping things up with war pillage and slave labor. "Nazi prosperity" was pure PR hype. Socialists should never be allowed to manage any economy. If the Nazis had won they would have either collapsed into third world destitution or transitioned into something not socialist by the time the 1970s rolled around. Either way, they wouldn't have much resources or attention to focus on Mars missions.

I think particle physicists are fundamentally making mistakes with the pursuit of parameterized theories. Yeah, Quantum Electrodynamics is the most accurate theory in the history of physics and gauge theories panned out pretty well with QCD, well done, but in the search for satisfying parameter spaces, people end up looking for solutions that they find satisfying. Beyond leading physicists down the rabbit hole of supersymmetry for 20 years and infinite search spaces in string theory, people end up looking for satisfying ideas to test first and testable ideas second. With the singular exception of the long predicted (and much loathed) Higgs Boson, particle physics hasn't made a single meaningful discovery or prediction in 50 years. Now, maybe physics is just that complete, but at some point it should be asked if the methodology for trying to generate new discoveries is actually any good for doing that.

If it's a quasi-pipe-bomb that gets 0.8 seconds of useful thrust before melting itself, and your test data consists of a few cellphone videos, probably no job.
If it's a well-constructed liquid rocket engine or ion thruster or something of that nature, which demonstrates some innovation beyond existing designs, which you can provide detailed sensor and test data for, then you'll probably get a job.

Kim still has the erroneous optimism that our causal regime can contain anything other than a block universe. The universe as we observe it doesn't have any inherent properties that would give rise to the passage of time. The arrow of time is NOT a "native" phenomenon, and neither is our perception of it.
The existence of some external mechanism capable of "playing" the universe like you would a vinyl record or a CD is mandatory, given what we currently know.

2nd one corrected a lot of problems and made it beyond stage sep, they almost reached orbital velocity but dumping of excess lox that was used as a mass simulator caused a fire that triggered the FTS on ship, the booster flipped but one of the engine filters got clogged, causing an explosion that cascated to other engines and destroyed the booster.
This flight will attempt reentry over the indian ocean and orbital fuel transfer (likely between main and header tanks) as a demonstration

booster performed well
anon above explained the cause of FTS
more observations here: the upper stage didn't achieve a particularly high speed (just under 7 km/s; you'd want closer to 8 km/s to be on orbit) and it cut off about 20 seconds early.
Back-of-the-envelope extrapolation suggests they were just about those 20 seconds short of reaching the necessary velocity.
Then they lost the upper stage.
Personally I'd set aside the matter of stage landings for now (it's a secondary mission objective relative to achieving orbit), and focus on why the second stage underperformed.
There wasn't anything obvious wrong; there must have either been some extra mass along for the ride, some amount of engines performing at reduced capacity (didn't see any signs of this), or just worse performance than they assumed in the design.
Even if it did achieve orbit, it looks extremely marginal - this backs up the most pessimistic assessments of its actual cargo capacity.
TLDR: I suspect the second stage problems point to a more fundamental challenge that will not be easy to resolve.

i don't see how the 2nd stage failing to reach orbit is a result of excess mass.
the only reason it didn't complete the burn was because a fire cut the connection between the main flight computer and the engine section, after which the computer automatically decided to activate the flight termination system.
we still don't actually have any metrics on how much payload mass it would have been able to carry had it completed a full orbit burn.

Every time I check his Twitter nowadays it seems his takes have gotten more retarded. Hope all that virtue signaling works out for him whatever he expects to gain from it I guess.

What else would you call the constant regurgitation of Republican talking points after years of staying relatively neutral publicly and donating to both parties in the background?

That most of what he's saying on Twitter is performative dicksucking for some perceived later benefit

>>16073249
Doesn't really change that the vast majority of those tweets are designed to make Republicans think "hi yes I'm totally one of you see how much I agree with you please notice me", i.e. virtue signaling.

>>16073266
That doesn't make it not stupid as he is the head of multiple companies that benefit from buttering up both parties.

One party is firmly in the camp of "Whitey on the moon" and proposes ideas the degrade humanity, instead of lifting man into the heavens.

Even if he believes the stuff he says, he's constantly broadcasting it to millions of people. How is that not virtue signalling? Excessive display of your convictions on social media is pretty much the definition.

>>16073294
Even more reason to butter them up and make them understand how important you are for putting Blacky on the Moon. Also they still control the military and spooks when they are in power and those won't stop lifting things into the heavens.

i read it more as a guy who hasn't spent all that much time thinking about politics realizing that he agrees with one side's thinking and assuming that if he just posts arguments for that side then everyone will eventually agree with him. it's a hamhanded attempt at persuasion more than anything else. it's also a common mistake made by twitter users.

There's some of that but then there's also the other half of his tweets that are just him posting a one word reply agreeing with some talking point, that's pretty much pure virtue signalling.

Your argument is still very retarded, because I'm sure if you were to sort by spacex/related content the device usage would definitely trend much more towards desktop and TV streaming. Which again have 4k screens.
