>"Russia has publicly claimed that their satellite is for scientific purposes," Stewart said "However, the orbit is in a region not used by any other spacecraft. That in itself was somewhat unusual. And the orbit is a region of higher radiation than normal, lower earth orbits, but not high enough of a radiation environment to allow accelerated testing of electronics as Russia has described the purpose to be."

Imo this is another Berger trash piece where he turns an article about some space event into another snarky blogpost full of swipes at the unenlightened troglodyte ways of le oldspace.
CLPS is in full swing, and IM-1 already kinda sorta landed. He even mentions this down in the text of the article. inb4 people say the title is technically correct because it's not "real" NASA when landings are bought as a service and the landers don't have a prominent meatball slapped on the side.
Berger says there is a competition between China's "embrace of a traditional approach" versus NASA's "way into some kind of new future", and ridicules China's manned lunar program as no improvement over Apollo because it uses expendables, which is disingenuous.
Firstly, LM-10 is a significant improvement over Apollo in that it will be able to save costs by building on existing tech rather than developing everything from scratch, and by having parts and pad commonality with other rockets. China's lunar crew capsule will also have a high degree of commonality with China's new LEO crew capsule.
Secondly, and most importantly, the LM-10-based landing system is almost certainly just meant to be a first step, one built at relatively low cost and schedule risk, experience gained from which can then inform the development of a more capable second-generation crewed landing system that uses LM-9 as its launch vehicle. This isn't going to be China's final word on the moon. China isn't going to just end it after 6 quick landings like the Americans did with Apollo.
Berger mentions that China's astronauts will only stay a few hours on the surface during the first landing. Regardless of whether this is due to the lander's inability to support longer stays, or whether it is just a way of minimizing risk on the first mission, that's not very relevant. The lander is, at its core, meant as just a transportation system, not as an integrated base. A base will be built separately.

Someone fact check me, but this is how I understand it: from a mechanical standpoint, think about what SpaceX does right now in its rocket landings at the point of the re-entry burn, then compare it with what they are going to be testing
When supersonic retropropulsion is used, you are:
a) entering an atmosphere at a significant fraction of its minimum orbital velocity or above
b) completely relying on this to prevent serious atmospheric friction heating
c) ejecting what is about to be supersonic (rocket exhaust) into something coming the opposite direction that is also supersonic
This is NASA re-purposing what the Falcon 9 does as a novel re-entry mechanism for things which are not rocket stages. The idea here is that the rocket's exhaust plume diverts the atmosphere just enough that it acts as a pseudo heat shield at precisely the moment it is most needed. Jury's still out on whether the entire mass of an engine+prop outweighs the mass of a heat shield, and whether that matters if you were going to include the engine anyway (propulsive landing). This is most obviously applicable to Mars, where propulsive landing is basically required

Is this true for all upper stage components? I've seen it claimed that for example payload adapter is a structurally limiting factor. Although I imagine payload adapter wouldn't be particularly expensive to redesign if necessary
Are the interstages and the booster designed to support a 64 ton payload in addition to the upper stage? Not just in terms of vertical compression. For example, you mention the bending moment, which could increase, no?

That might have been the original intent, back when it was planned to launch on the original LM-9 and before they changed the manned landing architecture to instead use distributed launch and a crasher stage

Berger's point is that the pace of success out of China in aerospace is accelerating towards where SpaceX was with Falcon 9 and faster than US' own pace in trying to do the same. This is a problem because if China replicates the F9 model successfully, its TAM for reusable launches to Moon and beyond is much bigger than the US. Right now, only SpaceX is really doing anything significant along the lines of it. Stoke, Blue, Rocket, they've all talked about it and they have some demonstrators, but the real meat and potatoes aren't on the pad, aren't launching, aren't proving out the avionics, and aren't driving down the costs of their own respective markets either.

Kek, its gonna be hilarious when the rest of the industry just puts out a newer version of the 1960s suit and then you have SpaceX yet again out another decade in terms of usefulness of the suit. It's like they're the only company that pays attention to sci-fi movies and goes "we should make that reality today" and the rest of NASA looks at sci-fi movies and says "we should replicate the 50s, because that's all we know how to copy."

At the very least it needs a self-contained life support backpack or frontpack. And thicker boots. Also this suit is designed simply for orbital EVA so it probably doesn’t have engineering considerations for lunar dust.
It needs to be further upgraded for doing any sort of lunar EVA activity.

Umbilical cord for extended life support but that can be made portable with a backpack or something.
What more do you need for mars/moon walking? The suit already does rad protection, environment checks, temp check, etc. Extended backpack would just provide more duration right?

Elon Musk is a car salesman who wants to hype himself up as Iron Man to help him sell overpriced cars. Hence SpaceX cares a lot about making everything look cool, clean, sleek and sci-fi, even when the additional utility of it is questionable and it adds unneeded complexity that can go wrong at very inopportune times. Other space industry actors don't have that kind of incentive.

Actually now that I think about it, these SX EVA suits probably won’t run at 1atm. The current NASA/Roscosmos suits don’t (because less pressure makes it easier to move in the suit—at the cost of needing to prebreathe and take a long time to start EVAing)
Newer (Artemis style) suits are going for 1atm though because that’s what your ship usually runs at, and it makes it easier to just climb in the suit at a suitport and go. At the cost of needing more complex suits with stiffer joints

Chinese population is ~3x larger than the US anon. Statistically, the amount of companies and capital within the market is 3x larger than the US. Competition thereby is 3x more significant across all sectors, and the interest for extra orbital initiatives is 3x greater.
This is obviously greatly simplified, but logically it holds true that a country vying to become the next global super power with roughly 3x greater population than the current dominant global super power, will set its ambitions far higher than the one stagnating (minus an anomalous set of companies all led by 1 dude), in order to overtake it and maintain its new crown.

Unfortunately the PRC is still wary of an unmanaged economy, and a lot of the recent efforts for spaceflight parity with the US are a much more deliberate state directed approach than what led to SpaceX. Someone even remotely like Musk wouldn't really be permitted to thrive in the current environment (see what happened to jack ma) which I think hobbles their potential a bit.
I agree that without intervention by the US, they will likely supplant it eventually, but I wish they weren't such control freaks.

Boomers love to be chatterboxes on the phone over every little thing. This extends to spaceflight. Even militaries at this point are trying to introduce heads up displays to infantry, it makes way more sense to do it for astornauts who are much higher investment assets. Words are a terrible tool for getting across many concepts, and the verbal comms should be kept for important stuff instead of every little minute detail. Upload the necessary data to the HUD and let theastronaut shut up and concentrate.

I don't know the details. It's what I've heard said. It might be that the regulatory environment was simply inconducive for it for it to be practical
I remember that Jean Deville for example pointed to this 2014 State Council policy guidance document
>The people's governments of all provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government, all ministries and commissions of the State Council, and all agencies directly under the State Council:
>In order to promote the strategic adjustment of the economic structure, strengthen the construction of weak links, and promote sustained and healthy economic development, there is an urgent need to further innovate investment and financing mechanisms in key areas such as public services, resources and environment, ecological construction, and infrastructure, and give full play to social capital, especially private capital. positive effect. To this end, the following opinions are proposed.
>7. Promote the diversification of investment entities in information and civil space infrastructure
>(24) Encourage private capital to participate in the construction of national civil space infrastructure. Improve civilian remote sensing satellite data policies, strengthen government procurement services, encourage private capital to develop, launch and operate commercial remote sensing satellites, and provide market-oriented and professional services. Guide private capital to participate in the construction of satellite navigation ground application systems.

Unless the government owns a controlling stake, the company would still be privately controlled.
Even if the government were to own a controlling stake, a company can still be run as a for-profit company rather than a policy company, being effectively identical to a privately controlled company in its behavior
An example I've read about: Space Pioneer. Kang Yonglai is both the founder and the CEO. His investors is mainly state and municipal VCs however he himself runs the company he founded.
Another example: Landspace. Zhang Changwu is founder and CEO, and the company has more of a mix of private and government VCs.

For context, that's the same pressure as roughly 26,500 ft
The bottom section is what PSI would be needed to replicate an aircraft cabin (0.74atm), which is pressurized to 8000ft (6000ft in the A350 and 787)

If Congress can't funnel pork/graft through NASA then they'll funnel it through some other department or agency. If those billions aren't going to SLS/Orion then they're not going to spaceflight at all. Money spent on a pork/graft project isn't suddenly going to be reallocated to useful things if the project is cancelled. The money is intended for pork/graft and is thus going to be reallocated to some other pork/graft project that lets Congress achieve its intent.
The main benefit of getting rid of SLS/Orion is not that it will necessarily free up more money for other NASA projects. The main benefit is would be that NASA would no longer have to design flagship missions around SLS/Orion to justify their existence.

nothing I've heard and I would guess SpaceX would like to keep those unsaid before NASA gets their quota women and minorities on the moon to dodge some unnecessary whining
after NASA does what they do, I doubt they will care about commercial lunar landings hurting their prestige as they were "first"
but the SLS and Orion are going to eat up a lot of budget if those programs keep going after the first landing
they need to abandon them and pivot to running moonbases, not too hopeful that is going to happen soon though
but who knows, maybe Starship is so impressive that it wakes people up

FFSC w/ MethalOx is the stepping stone engine to fusion torches. Nuclear engines are a meme the same way that hydrolox is a meme. Both have insane efficiency and ISP capabilities, but both have insane management and storage requirements; the latter of which is 10x harder because you're dealing with very high purity fissile material which is probably in the ballpark of being weapons grade. Which means that the total number of companies that would be allowed to build such engines can be counted on 1 hand over a multi-decade timeframe.
Starship w/ FFSC MethalOx takes us from 2024 all the way out to 2040 easily, and accounting for advances in ML/AI, material science gains, and compounding effects of scientific discovery, means that fusion reactors will be a likely solved problem by mid 2040s to latest 2050.
Then Starship can evolve into a 12 or 18 meter variant using fusion torches, which gives it the ability to become an SSTO anywhere in Sol.

This is almost certainly due to the addition of arm bearings, which in order to comfortably allow for the wide range of movement you have with the shoulder, are typically large in diameter and situated a little bit high up.
>>16159098
>it has rigid, rotating joints underneath the suit
It should be highlighted that, as per the callout description, the suit uses novel SEMI-RIGID "rotary joints". Also note that they don't just call them bearings. Bearings or not, a semi-rigid (which in spacesuit lexicon means that it uses a mix of soft elements, like fabric and cords and whatnot, and rigid elements, like metallic machined parts) torsion joint is, to my knowledge, completely new, and NOT easy to do.
Literally the only thing I can think of that ever came close was Slip-net (picrel), which could give you a bit of torsional compliance, but at very high torque. However, Slip-net was a homogenous full-body layer, like Link-net, which is NOT what we are seeing here with the SpaceX suit, which seems to have discreet, low-profile rotating joints at specific locations.

Spacesuits have had the means of monitoring and controlling suit resources and functions since basically the first EVAs. Picrel is the top view of the chest-mounted DCM (Display and Control Module) found on contemporary US spacesuits. This is your HUD. Since these were built in the 70s, they're pretty shit simple, just a tiny alphanumeric display screen and a bunch of knobs, switches and buttons.

No because (assuming Polaris Dawn goes well) they will have only demonstrated an adequate microgravity EVA suit, not a planetary EVA suit. From what we know right now, the SpaceX EVA suit cannot walk on the Moon. It simply does not have the lower body mobility.
Also, afaik Artemis mission planning puts a lot of importance on zero pre-breathe times, which the Axiom EMU (which runs at 8.3 psi) can permit, but the SpaceX suit (which runs at 5.1 psi) could not.

I suspect there's a lot of stuff they're not revealing (like the progress of the CZ-10 stack). Either they're making good progress or really far behind. If you look at their 2030 timeline, unless they start launching soon they're not going to make it.
It took 5 years for SpaceX to go from F9 to FH and CZ-10 is more technically complex (has a centaur third stage)

Absolutely. If the modifications for the upper torso demonstrate adequate mobility, then it should be no problem to apply similar upgrades to the lower torso. Hopefully they will find ways of improving joint performance, since that sort of robust mobility is even more critical when working on the Moon. This will likely result in a slightly bulkier suit, but at this rate I think that's fine.

There's plenty of footage of YF-100K and YF-100M engine tests. The YF-100K is planned to fly this summer on CZ-12.
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1E
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1q
The YF-75E engine is, I think, just a slightly modified YF-75D, and has undergone tests
https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1a
The CZ-10 third stage is similar to the CZ-5 second stage, so it's not exactly groundbreaking technology for CASC. They've shown several pics of CZ-10 structure test articles over the years. They've recently started building the pad in Wenchang, as can be seen in satellite imagery. It all seems to me perfectly consistent with the planned 2027 launch date.
There seems to be an assumption that the unicore CZ-10A must fly many years before the tricore CZ-10, because that was the case with Falcon Heavy. However, the CZ-10A is a derivative of CZ-10 rather than the other way around. Hence why it has such a terrible mass fraction. And there's not much purpose in having CZ-10A ready to fly before the Mengzhou capsule is close to being ready, so developing CZ-10A and CZ-10 asynchronously makes little sense.

assuming you have a bowling ball with mass of 8kg and radius of 10cm and a baseball with mass of 140g and a radius of 4cm, the gravitational attraction these objects towards each other is 74.75 piconewtons
assuming the gravitational force stays about the same (it doesn't) and that the baseball needs to move about 0.5m for the balls to hit (the baseball would move further than the bowling ball due to accelerating faster) it would take about 12h for them to hit each other

I would feel many things. I would feel sorrow for the lost astronauts, I would feel happiness at the fact that this would be another nail in sealing the Boeing and oldspace coffin, I would feel anger because everyone has been calling out Starliner is missing QA and that these were easily avoidable deaths, and also the obvious vindication.
