they used thermal radiator units to convert heat into the infrared spectrum to radiate it away
there were less demands on the lunar rover than regular EVs, and there's no way an Earth designed EV without this modification could function normally

moreover, the Martian dust would pose the same problems to the radiator systems that were encountered on the moon
namely, dust accumulation negatively affects the efficiency of the thermal radiators

you probably have a point about that whole gravity thing though

We aren't ready for cows in space yet, though that is an endgame tier goal for humanity.
It should technically be possible to create a cow-powered (and potentially operated) generation ship using methane capture units to create fuel from their farts and from the oxygen produced by the plants they would be feeding on.
No I haven't done the math.

Basically what you'd be getting instead for the forseeable future are lab cultivated meat cultures.
Martian and Lunar dairy farms can maybe happen eventually, but we would need to send a cow into a loop around the moon like we did with Apollo 13 first to prove the concept.

Facts?
Cause I thought the controled environment you would need for that to work in the first place would already account for that. And looking this problem up, I'm recieving mixed reports on this issue.
For the record, keeping animals free of disease is also difficult.

Anyways, what makes cows such a great candidate for spaceflight is the fact that their dung is "cool" unlike say goat or human dung.
Which means it doesn't "burn" plants on contact like human and goat dung does, and is incredible fertilizer. Doesn't need intensive composting like those other examples.
All I'm thinking is, bull shit might literally be the secret ingredient to a free energy system.

Cows eat plants, produce CO2 and methane.
Cows breathe oxygen, produce shit.
Plants consume CO2 and cow shit, produce oxygen.

The methane and excess oxygen are captured to provide unlimited gas.
What exactly am I missing here.

others anons have already said it, but I'll just expand on that point: the lack of ambition in these last 50 years was just gruesome. You can literally see by yourself how this feeling of adventure and conquest swindled throughout the years in the media, the general public, and literature. During the 60s, nobody could stop us. Everyone thought we would have a permanent Moon base by the 70s, Mars missions by the 80s, Jupiter by the 90s, Saturn and the exterior solar system by 2000s, alpha centauri next, literally unstoppable. Then, year after year, the sentiment ended. Look how many good works of space fiction came out in the 60s and 70s. By the 90s and later years, sci-fi just forgot about space travel, and robots/AI were the new fad. In this period if you talked about settling Mars, let alone the Moon, everyone would looked as though you were crazy. Quite the 180° change in our species' mindset.

Also, look at the proposals and serious studies we had before Apollo was cancelled. NTP, NERVA, Apollo Applications Program, etc. We were supposed to build bigger, and more powerful rocket to land on Mars by 1980. There were talks for manned flybys around Venus, real spin-hab stations, and I'm sure many were suggesting the possibility of getting to Callisto. Unfortunately, we realized too late that governments and politicians do not care about space, so we had to wait half a century for an autistic billionaire to set us on the right path again.

Well, there are some good arguments saying that the Apollo pace was just unsustainable in the long term, and eating away 4% of your national GDP every year is not a good prospect. However, I do think that they would've eventually found a way for the entire process to become simplified, and for everything to become mass-produced.

As close as the moon is already basically an infinite source of metals and rare earth material, there's definitely reasons to expand, we only lacked the will to do it for the last 50 years.
Granted, at the time to run a space program was so ridiculously expensive that everyone thought that only governments could do it, and that it was almost a given that they would try because of the USSR
No government to build that railroads. No expansion. That was the truth sice the 70's but now it will change, and we wont be at the mercy of corrupt useless bureaucrats (we'll be at the mercy of corrupt venture capitalists!).

We urgently need pictures of how the clouds and sky look from the gas giants "surface". These planets do seem to have a sky like ours, but I'm not sure if there's like a big open space with clouds as surface (like picrel), and then all of sudden it's all dark from there, or it's all more gradual and it only gets dark after several kilometres down.

It is far fetched. Mars also has more resources in it's crust than the entire asteroid belt. You still get killed on operations cost and dV. For asteroid mining to make sense you need scifi levels of automation and propulsion. It isn't worth seriously regarding or planning for

We have about 70 years of experience dealing with heat and rads in a vacuum, it's not easy of course, but far from being more than a expected problem
Even then operations will have to run hot given the Moon's surface temperature, I'm still hopeful about lava tubes so that radiation becomes a non issue too

At least they're smart enough to know that you can't dock anywhere on a rotating object except at the center of rotation.
But the center doesn't have to be counter-rotating if the ship that's docking can dock from the side while rotating. You could even have a cylindrical docking bay with very slight centrifugal force on the "floor", as long as the ships can carefully maneuver "up" and "down" to the axis area. (note that pic does not seem to work that way)

Being driven by profits is exactly the reason why we've stagnated for 50 years. SpaceX pushed past years of bleeding money to develop reusable boosters that have driven the cost per launch down, and developed Starlink as a business model to help pay for everything. They've basically monopolized space travel as a result and will go to Mars with or without NASA's help. Aside from being incredibly corrupt and bureaucratic, NASA being utterly terrified to lose a bit of money on developing new technology that drive the cost of space travel down drastically in the future is why we haven't done anything worth noting in space for half a century. Defense companies are incentivized to keep space travel expensive so they can keep getting their gibs via contracts on useless technology too

When you want to control the organization for the sake of controlling the organization, you see stupid petty infighting, sabotage, self-aggrandizement, and other such behaviors. The people who dominate the Long House see and care for nothing beyond the Long House.

So going back to that earlier discussion on bringing livestock to space, and that one anon worried about avian flu being really bad for Mars chickens, got me thinking. Wouldn't any sort of short term diseases (both in animals & humans) like the cold or flu simply not be able to get to Mars? The many month flight to Mars should mean any of those diseases will burn themselves out before getting to Mars. Only diseases with much longer infectious periods have a chance of making it Mars, and those can be screened for.

It's a great way to let out your autistic space visions in a game where you have total creative freedom, especially with Create which literally gives you complete freedom to do anything you can imagine.

I wrote out a plan to colonise the Solar System, and will be using this mod to realise it.

It's weird how Musk is under the impression that consciousness is something restricted to humans, rather than a part of reality itself.

I agree that colonizing the planets and affiliated bodies of our solar system is essential to the long term survival of humanity and their civilization culture, but pretending consciousness itself is at stake smacks of fanatical religiosity and is an exaggeration at best.

Most of that has been completely wasted on graft, corruption, and social programs that simple redirect resources instead of actually producing anything.

It's not just animals though.

I'm pretty sure rocks and plants, lichens, etc, enjoy some level of consciousness too, beyond that entire planetary bodies and stars.
Like, it's not a phenomenon you can neatly just lock down to a particular class of biological organism. It has to be more generalized, even if there are local hotspots.

It's relatively new and in its early stages, but it looks very promising. Not only is it unique with its focus on rocket building, but the representation of each planet is the most true-to-life I have ever seen in a space mod, while also taking creative liberties that are semi-believable. The author is clearly someone who enjoys and appreciates space for what it is, which has me more excited than anything, because all the other space mods don't feel like they have any real care put into them.

I don't know what to make.

I remember laughing my ass off at this launch and all the memes made from it, and I feel fossilized when I see that I made this over three years ago, and I have nothing else to make those kinds of vids of anymore.
I can look back at some of them cringing at how ass my editing and how hurried it was back then, but it's still way better than I could come up with on my own now.

Charging millions of dollars per person is incompatible with colonization, unless there's also a much less expensive option (or inflation gets a lot worse) because there wouldn't be enough people with the money and the desire to go.

What did Black Science Man have to do with Scientific American going woke back in 2000 or so?
(I know that's when it started because I had a paper subscription then and dropped it when they suddenly went full global warmtard. Then the editor was on Charlie Rose back in '08 or so and admitted it.)

It is still very early and it is good in the sense that it makes the x-com premise be far more grounded than just "I swear this supersekrit organization is stopping an alien invasion with massive massacres by itself" and gives you a progression from the Earth to orbit in a way that at the very least is sensible to how space warfare should unfold. For example: You actually tell countries how they have to manage their budgets to build nuclear weapons, armies or grow their economies and if you exclusively roleplay as your faction you might see things like Luxemburg fielding nukes, a navy and a worthwhile army with power projection but with the economy of Somalia, because by investing in that you actually contract the economy and weaken the country, so it is one of the things to balance.

Then research is done in a weird way. There are big projects in which everyone pool their resources, and these unlock the minor projects that advance your faction, invest in the big ones and you get to choose the next technology(i.e: Cockblocking others from space for example) invest in the minor ones and you unlock the juicy toys.

In terms of cloak and dagger there are interesting things, like at the early-mid game you unlock elite organizations that buff an agent so much that it lets you roleplay the idea of "oh well this situation is so bad that I have to pull out the secret elite glowies for this one"

But it was made by the long war people and sure it is a slog, and it is not just that, sometimes it is frustrating out of nowhere. Like you manage to finally, idk, control all of Germany or Israel and all of a sudden the politicians or the media turns to the aliens or some other organization out of nowhere, so you never feel actually in control just extinguishing fires around and dealing with events like for example: If you start killing rival agents, and you are not an extremist, you have to deal with your own agents having ethical problems.

Also, if someone wants to point out "skill issue" I will say that I did try to get on the game, and at some point I event went with WeMod to see if even cheating I could make the grind more bearable... and either I am retarded, the game fails terribly at explaining its mechanics or all of the above but after losing my China-India war with a 3:1 advantage and several control points out of nowhere when they were even secured I simply dropped and have not even touched it again. I will see this christmas if they have patched the difficulty or something.
>PD: Also, I remember, the game starts with Russia and Ukraine at war with each other, and with both armies in a stalemate. I took control of Russia, sent reinforcements and somehow Ukrainian forces still managed to hold. It got to the point where it was far more easier to control both Russia and Ukraine and then make them allies and then let Russia annex Ukraine peacefully... which has so many layers of irony that is not even funny.

True, they have basically nothing to do with each other. If anything Ukraine is proof that all the drone advantage in the world still leaves you vulnerable to a fairly shitty conventional air force, in the same way that any ground advantage isn't a counter

good question, probably some coolant or fluid from leaky cargo. There were visible droplets as well as the stink, which is why they immediately closed the hatch again.
Apparently, the Russian cosmonauts were so embarrassed by this, that they didn't notify the other astronauts; they had to find out from ground control when they asked what was stinking up the place.

What sort of performance could this give? The falcon 9 is already proven to handle side loading easy enough with falcon heavy. This shouldn't be much harder. I suppose the only use would be some sort of very heavy emergency payload.
The pad plumping spaghetti would be insane

Refuse their services then. Why give a blank check for mediocrity or outright failure when newspace companies will deliver what you want, when you want it at a set price. How is this such a difficult concept for NASA to grasp?

I hate to tell you guys this, but DOGE is never going to be a real thing. Trump can't create it, he needs Congress to do it. And Congress will only do it if they can define what DOGE is allowed to do; which will mean that it'll take like two years of going round and round on decision making in subcommittees before it is even considered for authorization. Elon doesn't actually have any power, and they aren't going to let him fuck with the FCC/FAA. The FCC because Comcast, Verizon, and AT&T are some of the biggest political donors, period. And the FAA because it would lead to them being primaries if planes started to fall out of the sky again. Trump couldn't even kill the DoE last time despite the DoE being one of the smallest governmental departments by any metric, and they really, sincerely made an attempt. Congress isn't going to give Elon carte blanche to just start annihilating anything he feels like. It's a ketamine fueled dream that he thinks he can meme into reality, and that just simply isn't the case. Even the red states have a vested interest in not cutting government jobs in their states. They'd absolutely want to do it to blue states if they could, but that won't be how this could ever play out.

No, I'm not retarded. Unless my sense of scale is vastly wrong, this is fairly large engine. Much larger than, say, that of a Sidewinder's. And our most advanced missiles don't use SRBs. I could only see these being used for interceptor purposes since there isn't a missile gap in the areas that this could be applicable to. The Air Force and Navy wants to spam cheap missiles, yes, but not shitty missiles. An SRB that propels something to match fuck off would be good as an interceptor, especially if it's cheap. As it is the Air Force isn't looking for any new missiles, they've got everything they need or want. But a ground based interceptor that you could fire and not worry about the cost? That's quite appealing.

Missiles like the SM-6 and SM-3 use an SRB, it has a 21" motor and is called the Mk72.

I need you to look up what air breathing wave gliding is. They use an SRB initially and then switch over to an entirely different method of propulsion. And you just supported my argument. The Air Force isn't interested in acquiring a new family of missiles/rockets. They have everything they need, and all of them are based off decades old matured and refreshed systems. It makes much more sense if Palmer is shilling this as an engine for a ground based interceptor based upon his claim of how fast they can build the engines. Cheaper interceptors is an area that hasn't been tapped yet and could be quite lucrative given that we really only have a few options at the moment and they are all expensive and finite.

DOGE was never going to be anything more than an advisory / PR committee. Such a thing doesn't need an action from Congress to create, it's effectively a private think tank loosely affiliated with the president in an unofficial capacity.

If you listen to Elon and the Indian they seem pretty certain they're going to be cutting departmental oversight to the point of non-existence and firing as much as 75% of all government employees. Elon literally talked about that shit all day for the the last week. What both of them believe DOGE will be able to do, and what it will be is extremely different than what you are saying.

You claimed "we" don't use SRB on our missiles and then after being given an example are trying to goalpost.

I get it, Anduril is very threatening to AJR(now L3Harris) but it is only a happening because AJR became fat and lazy and can't ramp up production.

Given how secretive Bezos was with the development of NS, probably not. If it is livestreamed I bet it'll be on a 10 second delay so that it can conveniently experience "technical issues" and cut out if there are any incidents.

I don't think Jeffy's ego could take it if footage circulated the internet for all eternity of his expensive new rocket wiping out the ship named after his dear mother, assuming it even gets that far through the test flight and is actually on target, which is a big assumption. Bringing back an orbital booster is a bit different to his glorified vomit comet, an up-and-down suborbital carnival ride.
