Why do people still insist aerospike engine nozzles are a good idea? They have more mass than a bell, are harder to cool than a bell, and get worse isp at both vacuum and sea level than a bell nozzle.

People like novel ideas and aerospikes “look” more sci-fi. It is an easy pitfall to just assume that it eliminates the need for sea level/vac engines + a shorter profile as you can eliminate long bell nozzles [so it works for something like Stoke’s rocket that can’t fit bell bottoms] but people do not consider the HUGE downsides you mentioned.
Aerospikes are the hydromeme of engine design

An organization must have a jihad to motivate its workers and push them to a goal.
SpaceX has a jihad. The workers put in long hours with minimal pay toward a clear goal for love of the game. Managers and top brass keep the train moving and fix any problems as soon as they arise.
Blue Origin wants this but doesn’t have it—“millions of people living and working in space” is not the same as “we need a fully reusable TSTO to land humans on Mars and sustain them with cargo” a la SpaceX.
Modern Boeing (and every other oldspace corpo) surely don’t have a jihad aside from upper management playing politics to win cost+ contracts. “Shareholder value” is certainly NOT a motivator for the average worker.

Peter Thiel talked in some interview recently (supposedly, didn't watch it) that the reason why Paypal mafia people are successful is due to three things he tried to instill in them (one of them which you mentioned, the jihad/mission/purpose)
>extreme bias for action
>cultish sense of purpose
>one thing at a time
not sure if these were something Thiel came up with himself or its something that he observed at paypal or some kind of culture they had which the paypal mafia have then taken with them (including Musk), but all of those seem pretty familiar
BO does 5 different random ass research projects at the same time, at least before Limp came in, they have or had no bias for action (could in fact be bias to inaction) and the sense of purpose seems pretty vague to me
make access to space cheap so we can have space entrepreneurs sometime in the next generation? ok, kind of vague

Considering its a test mission if anything in 2026, send a test payload. Some rinky dink rover made by a college team or something for cheap just to prove that anyone can have their shit sent for cheap.

Now compare the RS-2200 to the RS-25.
Note how the RS-2200 was planned to exceed the RS-25 vacuum Isp by only 3s, whereas the RS-25 actually exceeded the planned RS-2200 sea level Isp by 19s, *and* was much lighter than the RS-2200 was planned to be.
Also note how the real world performance of the XRS-2200 was significantly worse than what was initially thought was feasible. Aerospikes aren't good.

That depends entirely upon which government is in charge and how far theyre willing to stop SpaceX. The act of stopping SpaceX will incur a a very negative and strong penalty to the government and to the US itself.
First by not partnering with SpaceX and second by trying to slowdown/stop SpaceX for domestic politics. China wont have any qualms about it and instead will speed up their own efforts. Eventually DoD and the elites will either shit their own pants or they will line up behind Musk.

well ofcourse. starship would still be in its 'testing phase' and stilll mostly dedicated to Artemis at that point. prices also drop over time like falcon did with reusability as the systems are refined to be as efficient as possible. the more you launch the cheaper it gets, and we wont have launched many reusable starships by then that are dedicated to customer payloads. the final costs may be closer to $50/kg but as it stands now its going to be regular prices until then. F9 sits at about $2.7k per kg now so theres still reason to purchase F9 flights no? maybe im wrong about the price.

Okay, the sun is about half a degree in the sky, which means an object behind the sun would be hidden for about half a day, longer if the object is orbiting in the same direction as Earth.

they will have to lower prices at some point if they want to drive demand up anyway regardless if the competition gets some booster reuse going
perhaps in the short term (5 years) SpaceX is going to be busy enough with the testing campaign, HLS, Starlinks and preparing for Mars Cargo and Mars Crew that they don't need to drive demand due to unused starship launch capability

Transporter’s low price — initially $5,000 per kilogram — was below what some industry executives calculated was SpaceX’s basic cost. They concluded that SpaceX could only offer such a low price by subsiding those flights with some of its government contracting revenue.

They are not stupid, they know that the pool of people who are willing to go live the rest of their lives in a pioneer Mars settlement is extremely tiny compared to the pool of people who would be willing to go live and work on Mars for one or two sinodes.
All talk of "Mars is a one way trip" comes from that Mars One scam back in the early 2010s. Elon has made statements referring to "possible one way trip" as a more polite way of saying "astronauts who apply need to understand that they may fucking die trying to do this".

The problem is that in zero-g the propellant isn't going to settle nicely in the bottom of your tank. The obvious solution is using thrusters during the transfer, but that won't give you a lot of g.
I don't doubt SpaceX will succeed, but it's probably not a walk in the park either.

>Dumb. The resources needed to get refuel from ISRU would take all up energy the resources for the next 4-6 years of the base.
Wrong. Only need to make oxygen at first since we're delivering the methane until ISRU is up, and we only need tp refill one or two Starships per sinode. A single Starship can deliver a battery capable of storing 4 megawatt-hours with a solar array capable of generating tens of megawatts. This one power supply alone can already generate enough power to refill one Starship LOX tank in much less than one sinodic period, even though it can only work for around 10 hours a day. Send 4 of these Starships and you can refill one Starship with all ISRU LOX & methane per sinode, with enough energy leftover to keep dozens of people alive AND producing industrial materials & components for growing the base on the side.
Early missions being dominated by the need to set up ISRU propellant is worth the over 1000x increase in the interested labor pool size, and the domination of ISRU needs wanes dramatically as the base grows. After primary resource production and propellant production, the next industries to develop on Mars are probably photovoltaics and energy storage. Photovoltaics are obvious, and require a decent vacuum chamber for producing the panels in a simple process, but energy storage may be move tricky. My guess is they'll build vacuum flywheels for simple energy storage in the early days, since all of the components involved will be relatively easy to produce in-situ.

Like penises, the size of a magnetic field matters more than the intensity. To get a magnet with a surface strength of a tesla or two is very easy, but we need a magnet that will still be a few microtesla a thousand kilometers away from its surface, which would imply an insane magnetic field strength at the surface if the magnet stayed small.
Thus, what we actually need is an enormously wide electromagnet that produces a few tesla at the surface of the coil, as the massive size of the coil creates a similarly massive field, because something something inverse cube law.
Also, since the giant magnetic field is deflecting solar wind, which has momentum, what you're actually building is a giant magnetic sail, and as a result you must actively balance the thrust force of plasma ramming into your magnetic field with the Sun's gravity, via a counterweight and throttling of the magnetic field strength. It'd be a constant delicate balance.

Not compatible with cryogenic fluids.
We've transferred cryogens on orbit without a bladder. There's no reason to think doing the exact same thing on a larger scale will not work. Low head pumps are very simple and well understood.
Literally the only issues with prop transfer have always been seals and settling. Seals must prevent significant leakage during transfers, ideally zero but hey a kilo here and there isn't the end of the world. Settling the propellants can be done with slow acceleration (even a few cm/s works), either propulsively with little thrusters or rotationally by spinning about an axis. Both have little challenge to them.

the point is that on earth there are fucktons of tetrapods: animals evolved from a particular kind of fish
the aliens will not be evolved from that particular kind of fish
that being the case an argument needs to be made that they would have a tetrapod body plan (non-tetrapods on Earth generally do not) and then you'd still need to argue that two of the limbs would be arms with hands (most tetrapods on Earth do not have arms or hands)

It isn't as if as birth rates decline there won't be additional incentives to have more children.
Tax rates will be even lower for families with children, more resources will be spent per child on education, each child will have more access to better teachers and universities, etc
The danger isn't that we will eventually have no children. It's that only worthless niggers and foreign invaders will have children.

I suppose actors using business as a brand and means of making money, have rules, and limit themselves. Businessman seems to be unlimited when used as a title, like it doesn't matter what businesses you put together or whether or not your manhood matters where the business is concerned. In a different sense, a man associated with business, but not title, it's fine. You can make this cut when deciding what job you want in whatever letters you want to put it in, but technically it is a poor cut.

No, thrusters cannot do that task because they would run out of propellant in hours & require constant resupply forever. On the contrary, by placing a counterweight beyond the Mars-Sun L1 point and varying the current flowing through the magnetic loop, the push from the solar wind can be counterbalanced with zero need for propellant.

you need nuclear thrust propulsion before you can go to Mars
it would shorten the length of the trip significantly, which is important for radiation exposure
NASA and DARPA both agree on this point
Musk thinks it's a good idea too, he just wants to used direct injection because the government insists on doing the development of the system themselves and won't let him get involved
which puts the timeframe for a mission outside his control and in the hands of bootlickers
that's the only reason
if Musk could develop that technology further than he already has, he would
they just won't let him try because "muh nuclear", "muh government regulations", "muh you want to put nuclear material on a rocket that will scare other countries"
any long term mission on Mars will *require* nuclear powered facilities, you need absurd amounts of power to create propellant in situ like Musk's plan
so you can't get around the need for a set of reactors in space anyways

I wonder if von Braun died a doomer. Obviously he got to see the pinnacle of human achievement (of which he was ze architect) but his whole life was a slow yet steady rise to grandeur—in Germany he was limited by supplies, upon escaping to America he had limitless options and resources and money, especially once Apollo started. But then to see Apollo/Skylab die and Shuttle get tossed in the wood chipper with compromises and Mars pretty much shelved permanently for political reasons… must have been such a blackpill to take to the grave.

We have two years m8. All he needs to do is demonstrate reentry and lending and say we’re a go for Mars who wants in? The starship factory can produce as many ships as groups exist who want to send up experiments on the initial run. I’m not suggesting a full colony of worth of infrastructure. Just whatever projects people want to try. The cargo bay is what, 8 shipping containers? Send up a wire guided boring machine and see what you can make it do through remote control. Just put the call out for who wants to send stuff to try.

In my humble opinion:
Next mars transfer window is a ton of tests.
The following transfer window is cargo, supplies, pre-loading the surface with everything needed.
Three windows from now will be humans. The first human landing attempt can be done the previous window but it would be flags-and-footprints. A long stay, yes, but nothing planned to be sustainable or permanent. Just a “arrive, set foot, say some words, wait until you can leave”

I'm not saying it needs to be authoritarian, though that's not the worst option.
There's no reason why democracy is the best option, in fact that's almost guaranteed to create interpersonal problems between the colonists.
The difference between the psychology of Mars colonists and their Earth counterparts is impossible to qualify right now.
We can already see the pitfalls of democracy on Earth. It splits people into blocs, creates serious divisions in society.
That's existentially dangerous on Mars.
You can't just have people going on strike either. That endangers everyone.
Having everyone vote on every little decision that has to be made is going to end badly, because everyone has different specializations and won't have the best opinion on anything that is outside their wheelhouse.
Which creates a rapid regression to the mean effect on the quality of work. Whereas ideally you want the person who is most qualified with their system making decisions relating to it.
There should be some kind of ruling council. Total power can't be allowed to accumulate in the hands of an individual.
Maybe a form of limited representative democracy would work, but that has the aformentioned psychological problems with encouraging power struggles.

We squashed this bug a few threads ago marstard. 99% of the work is the launcher and the logistics and SpaceX are figuring that out right now. Once Starship can get orbital, land, and deliver cargo to the Martian surface [almost] everything is trivial.
The only two issues are:
a) Power generation. Worst case scenario it’s purely solar. Which would suck. But Musk is sort of anticipating that at this point. It will take a LOT of solar panels to keep the lights on, power “industrial” work, and power ISRU. Which leads me to my next point…
b) In-situ resource utilization. We know how to do it. The chemistry and tech is well understood. But we don’t ever bother doing it to-scale here on Earth because it’s easier to pump LNG out of the ground. Trying to ISRU enough fuel and oxidizer for even just one Starship to return to Earth will be, annoying. Not impossible but annoying and will likely come with headaches before we get good at doing it effectively and in large quantities.
But don’t be mistaken these are not insurmountable things. As I said earlier the hardest part of the equation is getting a huge rocket that can launch often, in great numbers, take a ton of cargo to mars, and can deliver humans to mars. Guess who’s working on that and succeeding right now? SpaceX

>the aliens will not be evolved from that particular kind of fish
If they were insects or something, would they evolve intelligence? You have to consider what kind of failure of a creature would even end up brainmaxxing and relying on artificial equipment, instead of just biting things to death like they've always done. Or what kind of climate and environment even promotes that as a survival strategy over just about anything else. Other apes are still doing fine chilling in the woods chewing grass or eating the occasional small animal, humans just seem like a giant fluke even in this tiny family of animals. The brain also consumes an enormous amount of energy, so at some point all those extra limbs of an octopus or spider thing would be a chokepoint for further brain growth. Or if they were getting plenty of energy, there would be no pressure to become more clever, like with those other apes
>then you'd still need to argue that two of the limbs would be arms with hands
That just seems reasonable if the things build tools. Would suck building computers with just a beak or four legs. Having fine motor control for fingers has been a trade-off in raw strength due to changes in muscle structure. A chimp can't do fine movements with its hands like humans, but they can climb with ease since their muscles are good for explosive strenght rather than fine movements. The more you spec those limbs into tinkering with stuff, the less useful they end up for moving around. Then you kinda just end up with two noodle arms

dust storms do not reduce solar irradiance by that much, they only turn direct solar irradiance into indirect solar irradiance via scattering
as long as you're using solar photovoltaics instead of solar thermal with mirrors you'll be fine, and in the absolute worst dust storms when the sky gets dark you'll just turn off the water electrolyser (which is like 90% of base power consumption)

If Mars had colonies and military bases all over the planet, do you know how laughably easy it would be to defend against outsiders? You could shoot down any misiles or landing craft with ease by just taking their trajectory and intercepting. Its already been proven that asteroid redirection is possible and you can also intercept probes on their way to redirect an asteroid. Many colonies could also be made in underground lava tubes. You could also reinforce a location from anywhere around the planet if they dont have a beachhead and fully surround them. Escape is impossible and communications between Earth and Mars take far longer than Mars to Mars, leaving home base with a significant advantage if on site leadership is strikes or assassinated. It is even easier to defend than the US.

I implied nuclear / nuclear+solar was the better option in my post. And dust storms aren’t going to kill off a solar-only settlement. As I said: the real problem is the sheer amount of panels you need. Think of too many panels, and then add even more panels to that. And you still have a power deficit! It’s going to take a retarded amount of panels [if you aren’t using nuclear] [[because of stupid regulations]] [[[but there will probably be nuclear because NASA is gonna want in on it]]]

It will though. Think about all the advantages there is. Venus is an uncolonizable hell hole and Mercury has absolutely nothing. The outerplanets have multiple moons they can set up bases on and launch attacks from no matter what, and Ceres has too low gravity plus multiple other planitesimals they can still set up in like Vesta.
Mars is the only one of any planets other than Earth that is well suited for interplanetary defense. It is the gateway to the outer solar system and is close enough for trade but also far enough for ease of military response to threats and the ability for isolationism.

vacuum won't work, ambient air pressure is too low, you need positive pressure blowdown
combine that with some electrostatic wand or magnet or whatever and it'll solve your problem
>>16370257
wind turbines don't work very well on Mars, due to aforementioned low air pressure
>>16370257
you do not know that, because we haven't done any prospecting on Mars and the current data already suggests Thorium has been concentrated by water action on Mars

Shut up fag youre overblowing that theory. You want one better then? Scatter a bunch of radioactive waste all over the surface. There, and as retaliation for trying to take sovereign Martian property, sling the moons at Urf with this waste on board. Or just use Phobos/Deimos as nuclear dumping grounds in the first place so nobody ever gets the bright idea to land there.

I don't hate Luna but it is too close to Earthoids for comfort. We need to go to the furthest feasible habitable celestial body, i.e. Mars.
>manufacturing on the moon
Probably won't even happen unless you meant to imply that you will be manufacturing goods to be used on the moon. Shipping goods out of a gravity well will probably never be profitable and the only reason Earth will be shipping manufactured goods to other bodies is simply to help those other bodies become self-sufficient.
Most likely almost all manufacturing will be done in massive space stations where you won't need an absurd amount of delta-v to transport it to another body.
You know what your job on the moon is going to be? Cleaning moon dust off of everything. And moon sex will be strictly outlawed.

I just gave you a better defense if you dont like nuking moons. Also also targeted strikes to reduce destructive payload would still work just fine as these beachheads on the moons likely wouldnt have enough anti-IPM capabilities to fend off all of Mars for 2 years while waiting for reinforcements. It would also be easy enough to shoot out important resources like oxygen tanks and pressurized habs, or clear the bases like trench warfare if necessary. Now that I think about it those positions are kind of impossible to defend in a 2 year war of attrition while waiting for backup.

It's more practical than the other options of either nuking Mars's core over a billion times or building giant magnets on the poles of Mars. If the shield does get pushed out of the precise spot, it won't instantly remove Mars atmosphere and shouldn't take that much force to put it back into the right orbit. We could just build multiple for redundancy.
Regardless, the magnetosphere question is the largest unsolved problem when it comes to terraforming Mars and none of the options are easy and we can't really being terraforming Mars until it is solved. It sucks how the second-most habitable planet in our star system is still so very far from being habitable.

When did Marsfags ever put down Jovianmooncels? By all means man be the king of that planetary system, but its Saturn that will hold all the negotiating power in your side of the system since it has Enceladus and Titan for natural resources. Mars would also control a good portion of the trade to the outer system unless you want to pay much higher prices by avoiding them. Jovian colonies are stuck in the middle of two great powers, though the position can be used well offensively by slinging trojans at whatever you want by utilizing Jupiter's gravity, though that would be a pretty telegraphed move that could be intercepted or preemptively striked.

>The growth of ridesharing and ESPA rings to operate and deploy small satellites means that operators can begin playing an increasingly sophisticated “shell game” by transferring mission and priority among multiple satellites, which was impossible with multi-billion-dollar, bus-sized satellites. Prior to rideshares being popularized, the median time to determine an object’s orbit and mission was 3.3 days. For recent rideshares, this process can now take weeks. The record for the most satellites deployed in a single launch is the Space-X Transporter-1 mission, which deployed 143 different satellites in 2021. This massive, near-simultaneous release of satellites created a significant challenge to accurately differentiate and track specific vehicles. Intentional application of similar methods to confuse adversaries in a crisis or conflict could yield an advantage to the United States.
https://mitchellaerospacepower.org/
This was an interesting passage to see this disadvantage of massive rideshare missions possibly being used as an advantage against advisories. Just dumping buckets of satellites all at once to make cataloguing and differentiating them a challenge.

They should pick the solution that keeps the doers in charge and the bureaucrats stuck in greenhouses rotating plants 90 degrees daily.
A Mars colony is defacto independent as soon as they can produce all technology thwy need to survive & grow in situ without anything from Earth, which will take a very long time. As for operational independence, I think the Martians will be almost totally free to determine their own best path forward, though grand plan strategy will come from Earth for at least a while. Very soon after the first people land on Mars, those people will become absolute subject matter experts compared to anyone on Earth.

>3d printed metals and powder based metals have a ton of processing beyond just printing them, and are way more likely to harbor defects like being overly pourus and not as strong as traditionally casted materials.
Nice FUD, fuckass. All problems solved by inspecting and testing the part after print. Obviously work after printing is required, I didn't imply there wouldn't be. Also, being "not as string as cast" literally does not matter one iota. You make the part as strong as it needs to be to perform the function, and 3D printing is the option with the least work required in this context, so it's the best. Eventually Mars will have 200,000 tonne drop forges and shit, but we are talking about day 1 equipment and capabilities here.

To end up with more cargo on Mars than you would have during the first Crewed attempt if you had not pre-staged cargo. Everything sent in the first landing tests should be redundant backups for cargo to be sent in the future alongside crew. Basically it's making use of an opportunity to increase robustness and capability.

I think any long term mission is going to need redundant specialists, so that in the case of an accident where you lose someone who was highly qualified to operate a certain system you have someone elso who can pick up the slack until you get or train a replacement.
The martian government should be equally redundant.
As for bureaucrats, you don't even need to think about them existing until you get a self-sufficient settlement operating and have to consider interplanetary commerce. They are pointless eaters at any early stage.

Yes we do, it's called molten oxide electrolysis. You don't just get garbage mixed metal alloy out of zapping lava, you get one quite pure metal per voltage threshold, starting from lowest binding energy with oxygen to highest.
We already do this, now, today, with lunar rock simulant, which is really just inorganic rock. Zero reason to think it would not work on Mars too.

Joints that don't care about dust are achieveable.
Dust cannot settle into a joint that is enclosed in an impermeable flexible barrier.
Two duster arms allows one arm to dust the other.

sure, that's true
the risk of cross contamination is always part of taking any sample
but there are ways to mitigate this risk, including sterilization procedures
one risk that we haven't touched on yet is the one posed by alien microbes to the human specimen
martian dust could carry infectious microbes
returning astronauts will need to be quarantined for a time to examine them for side effects that we don't want spreading into the general population

Among the first steps from any remote samples would be characterizing the life if found. Assuming amino acids are present then what is the chirality? Earth based organisms have L-isomer amino acids in proteins. However D-isomer based organisms could exist, which would pose a compatibility problem. No amino acids whatsoever would be new biology and cross contaimination is unlikely to matter but that's an experiment in and of itself.

The Russians effectively owned the ISS during the time period in question. Because they were the only ones still operating a transit service that could actually dock with it.

Is it done at industrial scale? Plenty of stuff exists in lab conditions. My point with the other stuff is that it can basically be sent to Mars with very little extra development needed. Basically all industrial processes will work with 0 development besides putting them on a pallet and shoving them into a rocket. Step one is metals from dirt though, and it isn't apparent to me that step one is solved. SpaceX is notoriously good at solving step one though so I'm not too worried

>Scientists have detected living bacteria "from outer space" in samples collected from the exterior of the International Space Station (ISS) during spacewalks, cosmonaut Anton Shkaplerov told Russia's state-owned TASS news agency.
These spacewalks were conducted by cosmonauts, who collected material from the Russian part of the ISS using cotton swabs, which were sent to Earth for analysis, Shkaplerov said.
"And now it turns out that somehow these swabs reveal bacteria that were absent during the launch of the ISS module," Shkaplerov told TASS. "That is, they have come from outer space and settled along the external surface. They are being studied so far, and it seems that they pose no danger."
In the brief TASS report, Shkaplerov does not elaborate on how the Russian researchers arrived at their extraterrestrial conclusion. As CNET notes, it seems like Earthly contamination would be tough to rule out, given how hardy many microorganisms tend to be. Some bacteria, and tiny micro-animals known as tardigrades, have demonstrated the ability to survive for extended periods in the harsh conditions of space.
>And terrestrial organisms may have accidentally made their way to the ISS before, if a controversial 2014 claim by Russian space officials is to be believed. Back then, space station official Vladimir Solovyov announced, also via TASS, that sea plankton and other microorganisms had been spotted in cosmonauts' spacewalk samples.
2014 checks out with my recollection of reading about this, though I swear I heard about it a year or two before that I could be wrong.
It disturbs me as much as you might be to know the Russians could have exclusive access to extraterrestrial bacteria.

It is, space is the ultimate "externalize your costs" location. Once launch costs go down it starts getting extremely attractive.
Need room? Space is infinite. And they actually do make more of it.
Need power? SSO and you'll never be out of sunlight. You actually run on SBSP without the transmission losses.
Need bandwidth? Elon is launching more commsats every week.
Launch a radiator big enough and your cooling is free for as long as that radiator functions.
Need secure disposal? Built-in incinerator right below you.
No use taxes, no property taxes, no maintenance fees.
The only problem with all of this is that the whole business case is designed for servers that never need servicing. MTBF in datacenters is measured in /hours/. Solar flares will fuck you up. Bit flips will happen all the time. You're basically going to have to launch an enormous amount of spare capacity kept idle to get any longevity out of it.

Maintenance fees are going to be extremely high compared to ground-based counterparts. Spacewalks and orbital servicing missions are never going to be cheap compared to contracting terrestrial plumping, electrician, or IT work.
>No use taxes, no property taxes
This is painfully naive. Right now the government takes everything that is practical and then a bit extra through the various licensing requirements for spaceflight. As soon as it thinks it can justify a new way to steal more of your money that is exactly what it is going to do.

uh what? ILS Proton was already doing $2,500/kg (like $4,000 today with inflation) to LEO 25 years ago.
Launch price actually hasn't really gotten down much, what has gotten down is reliable launch price, Proton wasn't reliable, and Ariane or Atlas were more expensive. F9 gives ~2000 ILS Proton or Starsem Soyuz prices with unmatched reliability, and rideshare.

not my area, but seems if it's still possible to inspect them and it greatly helps reusability and manufacturability, isn't that a good trade? like they'll make so many you can just swap them out if something looks iffy and then do the surgeries "offline" before bringing them back into service. idk.

Falcon 9 could have brought down launch prices a lot more but it didn't need to because its only real competition was Proton and Ariane 5. The only real competition it has now is Ariane 6 and Vulcan, so circumstances haven't really changed. Starship will lower the $/kg more but that's only because it'll have to compete with other reusable launch vehicles like New Glenn and Nova, and it'll only bring things down enough to make it the best option on the market. The rest will get pocketed as profit.

how far would spacex be now if they didn't have a bullshit 2 year delay due to EPA bullshit
I'm pretty sure they scrapped multiple prototypes during this time, which they could have flown (and no doubt blown up), but they would have found out about the need for more flame suppression in the engines way earlier, and all kinds of other things
not sure if the delay is the full 2 years, as SpaceX has been developing in the mean time, but who knows

You can just go on a low residue diet for two full days before a flight instead. I do it when I have to travel for periods of more than 24 hours when it would be inconvenient to shit.
I find that conventional pasta with smooth tomato sauce (no vegetable chunks such as carrot or onion), white bread, eggs and cottage cheese achieves reliable results.
As long as you limit your fluid intake to the water content of food and small amounts of water, you can also greatly reduce the frequency with which you need to piss.
