Continued on tiles
They might need a new megabay that is solely for tile replacement. If they can stop the burn through and have all tiles replaced in a few days (eventually) than it would still be rapidly reusable. This would require more starships than boosters though. One big problem is that nobody knows how aggressive the return profile was. If they reach orbit, that might be even more aggressive than their current suborbital test trajectories.

There was roughly a 1000km/h underspeed between the test flight and a nominal LEO orbit so not much difference and why anyone claiming it technically hasn't achieved orbit yet should be dismissed as it was a matter of relighting the engines for a few seconds.

Rather than tiles, they need some sort of spray-on foam, something like the spray-on insulation we have for housing. Any holes or cracks are no problem, just spray on a new patch over the top. We could even make it usable in space, to fix any gaps before reentry.

Removing several Km/s to return to Earth seems to disagree with you. There is no better way until nuclear propulsion. They will have to replace the tiles somewhat frequently. Which is why they should get faster at checking and replacing them.

It lengthens the time of the impulse so that the arms aren't getting hit with a spike of force from 300+ tons of rocket.
This is similar to how military vehicles use a V shaped belly to protect soldiers spines from the shock of underbelly bombs and IED explosions.

falcon defnitely goes through refurbishment and spacex never share the details. fastest turnaround is 21 days despite it being the goal from the start for rapid reusability. considering that spacex is by no means a sluggish company, the long turnaround is due to intense refurbishment. one problem theyve spoken on before is the engines getting filled with soot due to the kerosene. I have no idea how they clean them but it must be an involved process.

For the same reason we haven't gone back to the moon or reached mars: nobody cares. Our species would rather spend hundreds of billions in wars, mindless entertainment, sex toys, fast food, or sport betting, than to put a cent into space. Politicians only care about power, and the general population can't see beyond their own asses even if their lives were on the line, instant gratification like sex and drugs is all that matters. Be glad we have a multibillionaire turbo-autist with ADHD at the helm, otherwise this timeline would be grim.

Newsom's line is the same as the Russian line on embezzlement and corruption: You can do whatever you like so long as you don't make the boss look bad. These people were the perfect embodiment of karenist bureaucracy that Newsom's worked so hard to cultivate.
>These are friends of mine that said that. These are good commissioners
>You just can’t bring up that explicit level of politics
They're very much not "good commissioners," but they are close friends of his and them showing off just how bad they are doing their job and how willing they are to use their office like a weapon makes Newsom look bad on the national stage. It's okay that you hold those biases and misuse your political position but you've got to be quiet and a bit subtle about it, because if you break decorum and take your mask off it make it a lot harder for the other corrupt people to play their game.

When people are living on other worlds they will have to refer to Earth (the planet) and the Moon (the moon orbiting Earth (the planet)) as Terra and Luna because earth could also refer to the ground and the moon could refer to one of the moons orbiting the other world.

There wont be constellations around other bodies except for communication if there are humans living on it. why would you need an observation constellation on an unchanging static world? there is no need for day-to-day feedback like with spy satellites. a single satellite in a polar orbit will see the entire planet over the course of several orbits.
we are even pretty far of from having an orbiter around the planets. wont happen in our life time.

On Mars you could just use the traditional masculine methods of making women less unbearable to be around (physical violence and rape), I doubt they'll do anything to punish you if you're an integral part of the colony, and settler colonies in Earth's history tended to be ultra-conservative anyways because that's how you maintain order with a shortage of resources in a tight-knit community.

They weren't able to agree on a price, and ULA becomes a worse deal every single day. Blorigin can poach the employees they actually want, and engineering talent is pretty much the only thing worth a shit in the company. Most of the hardware is likely not worth finding a use for, and the various production facilities and land holdings and pad leases can probably be acquired at auction for cheaper upon liquidation than through a corporate purchase.

Gas giant brains are the dominant form of life in the universe but they have to rely on smaller species to do their bidding. Jupiter fumbled initial contact with the Martians and had to quell the rebellion with planetary genocide.
Plot twist is that they think Saturn is a good guy but it's actually controlled opposition that was lobotomized by Jupiter.

1st Upgraded Zhuque 2 launch is plannd for "this winter" according to the official weibo account.
Zhuque 3 still planned for june-july 2025, although using the current ZQ-12A engines, so likely underfilled or shortened.

So what's the endgame for (most of) the gas giants? Surely the know they're locked to a star, which I assume powers them. Solar death has to be an existential crisis for them, what can they do about it?

Radioactive decay might be able to support them on the long journey between stars with the planet in a sort of hibernation state, but stretching that to tens (or hundreds!) of millions of years for the journey would be tough. Not to mention the stripping their outer atmospheres would receive from the death throws of the parent star.

Maybe it's like an extension of influencing life like >>16439085 said.
The giants are playing the Long-Long-LOOONG game and the ones who survive are those who can cultivate some stupid fucking monkey people into a Kardashev-2 civilization.
At that point it has two options, trick the biologicals into somehow saving it from their shared star's inevitable death (i.e. uplift enough mass from the star that a supernova is no longer a threat, or something similar) or just reveal itself as a fellow creature stuck in a fucked situation.

Some of it could be that the space force hasn't greenlit Vulcan for any launches yet. FAA said that the booster failure on Cert-2 wasn't an issue, but the USSF has been very vocal in saying a whole lot of nothing about it. Vulcan was supposed to launch at least two natsec launches before the end of the year and Tory's had zero to say about getting those set up. ULA might need to run a third certification flight before they get the payloads they've already been assigned, let alone any new ones.

oh oh, my time to shine again.
It's basically pronounced /ˈʃɛpəɹd/, same as shepherd. Or, if you're Br*tish and you fancy some Received Pronunciation, then /ˈʃepəd/. Nothing too complicated, you just start with a voiceless postalveolar fricative (the "sh" sound), then an open-mid front unrounded vowel (like an "e" in "bed"), the /p/ sound, a schwa, your typical English r, and a /d/. Hope 4chan doesn't fuck up the unicode characters.

I watched the speech, indeed he wants Trump to deregulate, but he also used the event to hype up the things he is personally interested and invested in, like xAI, X platform, nuclear power, eliminating wokeness/communism, and most of all, space colonization.
Trump only cares about a few of those things, not all. He spent a lot of time with non-Trump content, which was good to see.

That idea has been abandoned like 1 or 2 years ago. What SpaceX is planning is my attached pic but spreaded through the Cape, Boca Chica, West Coast, etc. Sea platforms are stupidly expensive, you need fuel boats that require infrastructure to deliver that fuel, and how do you inspect the ship after landing ? do you keep people on-site? you tell them every time a booster lands to take a boat and clear 3-4km away from the pad? One word : Expensive and another word : Complicated

That one engine seems to be leaking fuel and the compressive forces of the atmosphere as the booster came down at the velocity it did, creates the conditions by which all the gas that had collected in the skirt ignited and that's why it turns bright hot. I'm guessing that the Raptor3 engines fixes this flaw, as the Raptor2's seem to suffer from this a lot.

The big one was the thermal and mechanical loads during descent. The loads are too great for bare aluminum, and the supersonic shockwaves are pretty intense because they're not sparing any propellant for an entry burn.

the booster is likely not going to have to bother with any real shielding other than what the engine bay needs for it's own heating if it's made out of steel, it can also avoid needing an entry burn which is fuel not spent helping the 2nd stage or landing, on top of that the specific type of stainless spacex is using has really good structural properties in relation to weight at cryogenic temperatures which are the temps most of the vehicle will be staying at.
all in all, like with starship, it's likely that even after mass optimizing both stages, they'll likely be more mass efficient staying stainless steel than switching back to aluminum, all the extra measures needed to keep that material from either structurally weakening or melting altogether is simply not worth it.
keep in mind that aluminum loses about half of it's tensile strength at just 250 degrees celcius.

Raptors are leaky. The engine bay, enclosed in the engine skirts, ends up getting methane buildup, which resulted in the engine bay fire that doomed Flight 1. The CO2 purge system was added to prevent that, which added 20 tons to the booster. Raptor 3 is designed to not need any kind of thermal protection for its plumbing and avionics, so they can dispense with both the engine skirt mass and the CO2 purge system mass.

Maybe a few pieces where it's application wouldn't cause massive weight gain or where it's permissible due to reusability. The new Marcus house video actually touched on that and mentioned the booster grid fins being made of Ti once it's fully reusable.

SpaceX will upstage Boeing, the primary contractor for SLS, and if the people at NASA are smart (I give this approximately a coinflip) they'll replace the shitty expensive contractors with the good cheap ones, and enjoy doing more science for less money.

>A more radical alternative hypothesis, published in 1997 by russian scientist Vladimir Anisichkin: "The Moon could have formed as a result of explosion of the Protoearth" proposes that the Moon may have been formed from the nuclear explosion of actinides located on the solid inner core of the Earth. Dutch scientists Rob de Meijer and Wim van Westrenen suggested in 2010 that the Moon may have formed from a nuclear explosion caused by the centrifugal force of an earlier, spinning proto-Earth. The centrifugal force would have concentrated heavy elements such as thorium and uranium on the equatorial plane and at the boundary between the Earth's outer core and mantle. If the concentrations of these radioactive elements were high enough, this could have led to a nuclear chain reaction that became supercritical, causing a nuclear explosion ejecting the Moon into orbit

Untrue
>Another issue is lunar and Earth isotope comparisons. In 2001, the most precise measurement yet of the isotopic signatures of Moon rocks was published.[4] Surprisingly, the Apollo lunar samples carried an isotopic signature identical to Earth rocks, but different from other Solar System bodies. Because most of the material that went into orbit to form the Moon was thought to come from Theia, this observation was unexpected. In 2007, researchers from Caltech showed that the likelihood of Theia having an identical isotopic signature as the Earth is very small (less than 1 percent chance).[13] Published in 2012, an analysis of titanium isotopes in Apollo lunar samples showed that the Moon has the same composition as Earth,[14] which conflicts with the Moon forming far from Earth's orbit

Everyone alive during Apollo is almost dead now, everyone around for the shuttle (and DC-X) are in retirement homes. They did not pass their know-how along, so you're watching the next generation learn how to make rockets but on a computer
NASA also pays far less and promotes less than the private sector because they're on the civil service pay scale. Half of mission control is outsourced because they can't keep butts in seats. Speaking of computers, the new security regs are breaking everything

i think it's been the same guy for a while now, mental illness causes these people to stick to places like this like a wad of cancer.
in this little microcosm of the internet he is at least something, he's a small annoyance that people occasionally acknowledge, outside it he's nothing, and he knows it.
this is the pathology behind most lolcows, they know it's bad for them, but they can't stop because they feel like it's the only place where people know they exist.

This last thread split has been unjustified newfaggery that rightly got btfo by all of /sfg/ but still the ones youve been complaining about before were all rightful image limit stages. There hasnt been a wrong stage since IFT-5 but you still called all those image limit stages as such and I dont know why since everyone in /sfg/ knows and agrees image limit stages are legitimate
