They have physical controls as backups

Also touch screens are safest because you don't have to duplicate or triplicate controls for redundancy. If one touch screen is still working it can do what the other touch screens do, just not at the same time. It's no different that those multi function displays in cockpits that can all do the same stuff, except you touch it instead of having 100 buttons around the perimeter. In spacecraft fingerprints aren't a big deal because tiny windows.

funnily enough star trek's best director, nicholas meyer, hated touch screens and when he came back to direct the last TOS movie they had "modernized" the set, so he threw that shit out and had manual controls added back. This says a lot more about autism than it should because those movies were notorious for reusing props and footage as much as possible to keep the budget low, and his bid as director was successful because he was able to drive down the budgets personally. He's also jewish.

Anyway I just thought that history lesson would anally devastate touchscreen bros that had it coming.

dude a human trying to land a passenger jetliner is impossible

just let the computer do the landing since they are so much better than us at everything

they could probably do it more reliably if they monitor and simply adjust the automated systems than a computer alone can
that's the future, humans using the tools computers allow us to create
it's not one or the other, it's both
computers alone are insufficient, humans alone likewise, you need both

in the same sense that humans land planes better than computers do, we can probably land rockets better too
it's just too dangerous to try that so it's not allowed

Actually more importantly than controlling the plane, the most dangerous time is take off and landing because it requires traffic control and both the ATC and the pilots not to fuck up communication or make errors in timing judgement.

astronauts:
>have a set path to take through the atmosphere, pre-designed, programmed and written into a flight computer by flight engineers
>flight path in vacuum has to be exact, small errors in burns require larger corrections later in the flight path consuming precious fuel which can result in loss of mission depending on margins available

>re-entering and landing a capsule, spaceplane, or starship requires integrating dozens or hundreds of temperature and pressure sensors to avoid a breakup in flight while also staying within the nominal reentry corridor

realistically the main reason there isn't a push towards total automation in airliner cockpits is public perception and confidence, rather than anything technical.

so you want every plane to have a designated and prearranged destination, and there to be no way at all for the passangers or pilot to simply reroute and navigate to another area midflight for whatever reason

what could possibly go wrong with allowing the physical skills pilots have developed over generations to go extinct and for a centralized computer system to guide the trajectories of every plane in the country with no manual override

a way to mitigate these inevitable human fuckups involves a manual override control system that you can use to make adjustments to your heading if the computer system designed by humans for guidance shits itself, is compromised, or starts trying to kill members of the crew en route to the moons of Jupiter

>>16460320
>it could just say "no way fag" just like a human could
computers are designed for compliance, they don't have agency and cognition like humans do

you could give the computer normally off-limit coordinates to say the Pentagon, but label them as something else or even rewrite the entire system so that it thinks it's going somewhere else and the computer would simply comply because it has no ability to think about what could be happening
it gets a certain input, puts out a certain output
that's it, no different than flipping a lightswitch

>The Manual Course Correction Burn

The increasingly uncomfortable crew of Apollo 13 has accomplished another important task on their unexpectedly early return home. By temporarily powering up parts of the Command Module, they have discovered that the systems needed for making their Earth landing are still in working order. With a plan to charge the CM batteries, they hope that everything will function properly once they reach the moment of reentry. Before that, however they will have to adjust their trajectory at least once more, without the use of the guidance computer in the powered-down Lunar Module Aquarius, and the time for that course correction burn is approaching.

The Abort Guidance System, or AGS, interfaces with the Control Electronics Section in many ways, just like the PGNS main guidance system does. The Abort Sensor Assembly, or ASA, uses hull-strapped accelerometers and gyroscopes to provide inertial sensing data. The Abort Electronics Assembly is a computer that takes over the functions of the LGC should it fail. While more rudimentary and less capable, the AGS is able to maintain attitude control and calculate DPS, APS and RCS burns that would be needed to get the crew to a safe rendezvous with the orbiting Command Service Module. Right now they are pressing the AGS into duty to maintain partial attitude control while the crew performs the rest of the course correction under manual crew control.

It is interesting to note that in the Command Module, the backup control system, the Stabilization Control System (SCS), was electromechanical, utilizing dedicated sensors, manual crew input, and separate electronics packages. For the LM an independent, fully fledged backup guidance and control was required due to the complex demands put on the LM by its highly specialized mission. The SCS is capable of maintaining vehicle attitude and can permit manually controlled SPS engine burns, which is enough for what is required to get the crew home even without the guidance computer. The LM's mission profile is much more dynamic. Emergency return to orbit from powered descent would simply not be possible without computer-assisted control.

Despite the accuracy of the transearth injection, the spacecraft slowly drifted off course, necessitating a correction. As the LM's guidance system had been shut down following the PC+2 burn, the crew was told to use the line between night and day on the Earth to guide them, a technique used on NASA's Earth-orbit missions but never on the way back from the Moon.[143]

This DPS burn, at 105:18:42 for 14 seconds, brought the projected entry flight path angle back within safe limits. Nevertheless, yet another burn was needed at 137:40:13, using the LM's reaction control system (RCS) thrusters, for 21.5 seconds.

>bro trust me you don't need to know any of this dumb shit about navigation because the computer will just do everything for us
>nothing can go wrong and if it does there's nothing you can do about it just die

The Apollo primary guidance, navigation, and control system (PGNCS, pronounced pings) was a self-contained inertial guidance system that allowed Apollo spacecraft to carry out their missions when communications with Earth were interrupted, either as expected, when the spacecraft were behind the Moon, or in case of a communications failure. The Apollo command module (CM) and lunar module (LM), were each equipped with a version of PGNCS.

That's a very weak deflection.

The astronauts DID operate the controls and input the new data themselves, because the manual systems necessary for that existed.
Which is something you seem to think isn't necessary for whatever reason.
But that's retarded and you've been exposed as a midwit for all time ITT.

It's fucking embarassing that people who lurk this general think that it would have been somehow acceptable for Apollo 13 crew to die simply because they have this strange idea that manual course corrections are impossible for humans to implement "on the fly" and the backup control systems necessary to implement that don't bear any consideration and can be ignored.

>As the CM was being shut down, Lovell copied down its guidance system's orientation information and performed hand calculations to transfer it to the LM's guidance system, which had been turned off; at his request Mission Control checked his figures.

>Normally, the accuracy of such a burn could be assured by checking the alignment Lovell had transferred to the LM's computer against the position of one of the stars astronauts used for navigation, but the light glinting off the many pieces of debris accompanying the spacecraft made that impractical. The astronauts accordingly used the one star available whose position could not be obscured – the Sun. Houston also informed them that the Moon would be centered in the commander's window of the LM as they made the burn, which was almost perfect – less than 0.3 meters (1 foot) per second off.

Nigger landing a passenger jet is so easy I could talk a toddler through it and did, I trained my kid on flight simulators from age 3. It took her 5 attempts to land a plane, two attempts to take off.
Landing planes was already automated and proven to be better than letting humans do it, but thanks to human error there were fuck-ups and passengers polled incredibly negatively about having a computer control take-off and landing. They'd probably poll better in modern times, but back in the 90's boomers were still stuck on the idea of big bad captain man saving planes from movie scenarios.

Different with landing a rocket though. Every acceleration vector on landing is exponential. In addition those vectors compound and modify depending on how much fuel is left which changes drastically every 10th of a second. Hold one thrust vector for 40ms too long? Whoops, now your rocket is sideways, godspeed.

They had a checklist on how to perform a water landing, they didn't guess with instinct. I'd trust a computer to ditch in water because it's just a procedure and maintaining variables for touch down. But I'd rather have a captain to direct the crew and get everyone off the plane without drowning.

Also the reason Sully's landing is impressive isn't the water landing. It's that he didn't succumb to wishful thinking and try the easy way out with a normal runway landing, his gut was telling him that they wouldn't make it. I remember him being confirmed correct about this in the investigation. This was hard for a human because it required experience and honed intuition, but it would be trivial for a computer to realize the rate of decline of altitude and speed isn't good enough to make the runway.

The checklist is so they don't miss a step, pilots have so much knowledge and experience on these incidents that automation cannot match. You won't ever have the sensors or decision making processes to make a rapid and reliable recovery. Especially considering most emergency scenarios are failures in technology.

>Also the reason Sully's landing is impressive isn't the water landing. It's that he didn't succumb to wishful thinking and try the easy way out with a normal runway landing
On paper diversion to that airport was the best decision, that is a perfect example of how automation would fail. It would pick the logical choice of a strip of pavement as the safest route and not figure out the aircraft was not going to be able to make it. Relying on sensors during a catastrophic failure is never going to be safe.

He was a fucking retard for getting involved in politics and now all of his businesses are under regulatory scrutiny and it only got worse under Biden and will continue to get worse under Harris AND THATS ONLY because he tossed himself under Trump. All of that money to Twitter shouldve gone to SpaceX and if he had kept his mouth fucking shut then SpaceX would be having a far easier time right now than it would as is.

Yeah I'm sure you had her stick fly it on a VFR day, with a dry runway, without weight issues, or traffic issues in a non emergency situation. I'm sure she also had no knowledge of the surrounding weather, how to deviate if issue arised, what her fuel burn was, her winds on landing were, what her mocas were, what her equipment allowed her to do or what contingencies to follow if equipment fails. I'm also sure she doesn't understand most ATC given commands or procedures, what the alerting sounds, visuals and switches mean and Im sure she hasn't reviewed the NOTAMs, SUAs, TFRs, SIDS, STARS OR 10-9S according to her flight plan.

The industry is automating quite a lot and the general consensus is that is that is will not be feasible in our lifetime. Spaceflight will probably be similar .

This was your low intelligence claim made with outrageous levels of ignorance about one of the most complex industries in our society. I am addressing this absurd claim, because it is absurd, your 3 year old didn't fly the plane, she did not have control over the plane or the situation, she just got it to land in a simulator game on a long runway without any real world conditions. Also lets not pretend that landing a rocket by hand is impossible. You can make and should make stick flying a priority and have pilots just like they have on the dragon, because even if you use automation a experienced and trained human brain for emergencies is going to be a much safer way of operating.

i think it's really funny that this anon is convinced humans CAN make course corrections at all.
there's a difference between pointing your plane a few degrees left to line up with a landmass about 5000 kilometers away compared to correcting your course so your spacecraft ends up going through a 10 meter diameter hoop in space 3 months and millions of kilometers traveled later.

This is complete nonsense

What's the safest speed, angle of attack, rate of descent, etc for a water landing with that particular plane? Those variables were carefully guessed by engineers based on the few water landings that have happened. The pilots have zero experience with that from landing on runways. And no, most emergency scenarios now are human error.

>On paper diversion to that airport was the best decision

But not on silicon. Choosing a strip of pavement you can't fly to is not "logical". Computers can estimate the crash site of a plane better than humans.

Yes, sensors can fail. But a pilot is also a collection of sensors that can fail. But unlike humans I can add as many sensors as I want, where ever I want, for redundancy. Really the only way humans are better right now is just normal optical vision, but computer vision is advancing and it's probably easier to land a plane with computer vision than make a self driving car or general purpose robot.

I had hope they would try running water in space for the first time. They have gravity so it should be pathetically easy and not require any special hardware.

What is the rate that bathing water can be filtered? A 5 minute shower is about 13 gallons, so for each crew member you need to filter 13 gallons every 24 hours, or 48 hours if it needs to be less luxurious. You'll need a heater and a dehumidifier. Are these hard to energy budget?

Thotwell is NOT a true believer. Just listen to any of her talks when she's not explicitly been given talking points by Elon. She doesn't care about going to Mars and doesn't think it's a good idea.
He keeps her around because she's a competent business manager and follows his orders.
Too many contrarians vastly overestimate her importance just to sound sophisticated and dunk on Elon.
Without his direction it's well and truly over. SpaceX will just become an extremely competent version if boing, which will shift over 50 years into a typical low competency too-big-to-fail business as the driven people retire.

SpaceX suits are tailored for the individual body like in the 1960s.
Universal suits are 80s tech. They are necessary for extraterrestrial colonization but are very hard to make work.

Did you guys already see this?
https://science.nasa.gov/blog/red-rocks-with-green-spots-at-serpentine-rapids/
>On Earth, red rocks — sometimes called “red beds” — generally get their color from oxidized iron (Fe3+), which is the same form of iron that makes our blood red, or the rusty red color of metal left outside. Green spots like those observed in the Wallace Butte abrasion are common in ancient “red beds” on Earth and form when liquid water percolates through the sediment before it hardens to rock, kicking off a chemical reaction that transforms oxidized iron to its reduced (Fe2+) form, resulting in a greenish hue. On Earth, microbes are sometimes involved in this iron reduction reaction. However, green spots can also result from decaying organic matter that creates localized reducing conditions. Interactions between sulfur and iron can also create iron-reducing conditions without the involvement of microbial life.
Also:
>Unfortunately, there was not enough room to safely place the rover arm containing the SHERLOC and PIXL instruments directly atop one of the green spots within the abrasion patch, so their composition remains a mystery. However, the team is always on the lookout for similar interesting and unexpected features in the rocks.

As a fluke? Maybe. I mean I'm trying to think of the control layout.
Independent gimbal and thrust settings for each raptor you could put on each finger?. Centre three you could control with kegelling your cock and each testicle I guess. Grid fins you could use your feet/ankles or something. Just gotta do a whole lot of amphetamines right before landing to get in the zone.
Easy.

there's no grid fins on the ship

Lack of control is the reason the lunar lander is a bad comparison. You had gas thrusters to fix your orientation in low G. With the starship you have the flaps and the gimbaling engines. Does the ship use gas thrusters at all when landing? You get once chance to do any kind of flip, and if the rocket ever tilts away from the proper orientation you can't get it back.

The airport of the Vostochny cosmodrome for the first time received an airplane with the Director General of Roscosmos
The flight was performed on a Tu-204-300 aircraft.
Yuri Borisov got acquainted with the construction of the airport complex.
Vostochny Cosmodrome Airport is an object of the second stage of construction, which will allow receiving components of launch vehicles, spacecraft, upper stages and other important cargo for the needs of the cosmodrome.

Tomorrow Soyuz with 53 satellites will be launched from there. Including satellites Ionosphere-M №1 and №2 for Ionosphere project aimed to conduct studies of Earth's Ionosphere

His point should have been obvious but you missed it
"It is argued that “The most pertinent long-term reason for human spaceflight is survival as a species”. I don't disagree with this, but it is a task for the distant future. In order to give humanity a chance to survive a global catastrophe such as a large meteor strike or an all-out nuclear war, an extraterrestrial colony would have to be permanently self-supporting. The colony would have to possess the industrial capacity to replace its equipment – solar panels, air synthesizers, water mining machinery, hydroponics, etc. – when it wears out. We do not now have the capability to establish such a permanently self-supporting colony on Antarctica, a far more benign environment than Mars or an asteroid. This is the real challenge: not to get people to Mars, but to free them from the need of support from Earth. Perhaps we should start with Antarctica."

Any potential antarctic colony wouldn't be taken seriously by the normies, the scientists or politicians, and thus would receive little funding or attention. The close proximity to civilization and inherent safety is basically embracing defeatism. Not to mention that the observations and experience you get would at most be only somewhat useful for an interplanetary effort. More money and potentially decades spent for little benefit when you could just shoot straight for the goal and learn from real world experience and failures.
A training facility in a remote region on Earth does have it's uses, but not before we actually set up a proper colony off-world.

you have far too much faith in the people overseeing such projects. If you fund someone to build a self sustaining colony on Antarctica, they will do exactly that.

You can't just "pretend" that something is true, you need a proper incentive to make yourself believe that it is that way. You only need to look at the International Scam Station to see what I mean. Decades and billions spent for what? Transferring astronauts every few months, growing tomatoes and embezzling money, that's what.

I dunno. Seems like wishful thinking to me. In reality, whoever you delegate to designing and building it would just do the bare minimum effort (that goes double if you choose private companies). On top of that, no institution or politician on earth would fund something like this when they could spend the billions on something else.
The conditions you would need for a colony in antarctica to happen and actually be of any use are unreasonable and likely detrimental to the overall effort of colonization.

They're not the same problem even if someone can describe them the same way (get to the grocery store).

>If you do it with the goal of being widely applicable in many sorts of environments, doing it on mars wouldn't be that much more difficult
This is really, really dumb.
The available resources are different and the environments are totally different. Do you know why you wouldn't build one vehicle that can operate as a submarine, an automobile, an aircraft and a spacecraft?
Go sit in the corner and think about what you did wrong.

Just making up weak analogies doesn't prove your point.
