Why do all our plans for colonizing space so far rely on going directly to the moon? Shouldn't we be building some more orbital infrastructure?

Furthermore, how come all of our orbital vehicles are monolithic? (Save for the space stations.) I'm a little bit surprised and dismayed some private corporation hasn't tried to pitch some kind of modular system for orbital vehicle construction. A well documented standard for modular vehicles would be very useful for the world at large.

The single actual plan anyone has for colonizing space is SpaceX's plan to use Starship to bring people to Mars, and doesn't involve the Moon whatsoever.

NASA's plans all involve the Moon because it's the only place SLS/Orion can go, and NASA is compromised by MIC forces.

Modular space stations turned out to be such a shitty way to do space stations that the commercial industry is pivoting back to monoliths (helps that real launch capability is coming).

There's simply no benefit to modular spacecraft at this time. In the near future, some large modular spacecraft may be built, perhaps to enable human spaceflight to the asteroids or beyond, but in the longer term, industrial capacity in space will make it possible to build huge monolithic spacecraft off-Earth, and since big monoliths are better than big module conglomerates, the monoliths will win.

Why have all electric propulsion spacecraft in history been so shitty? Take Dawn for example, don't get me wrong cool mission and great results, but the thing needed 5.9 years of runtime just to achieve 11.49 km/s of delta V. Why was ~1.95 km/s per year accepted when for essentially no cost to delta V budget they could have quintupled the solar array size/mass and 5x'd the thrust by adding more ion engines?
If NASA wants to claim they are demonstrating technologies relevant to human spaceflight, they should take more care to actually demonstrate those technologies in a manner which is actually relevant to human spaceflight.
2km/s per year will not enable human missions to Jupiter orbit. 10 km/s per year would. If we had ambition we would demonstrate a 10 ton space probe capable of 20 km/s per year (actually doable if you aren't scared of a 60% power supply mass fraction).

Having to always fly under the clouds and wait for cloud cover to launch sorties would make planes basically useless and cucked anyway even if your super glownigger satellites only had cameras. If you want to hit something far away, you use a missile. Imagine how many missiles you could bought at a competitive free market mass produced rate for the cost of the f-35 program.

they could probably make mobile ground stations or even use regular starlink dishes as ad hoc ground connections if that was necessary in a war
I would guess the reason they do it as they do it now is just to maximize bandwidth, i.e. the frequencies the ground links use are ones that would be inefficient or difficult to use for small commercial dishes, but that isn't a problem if you build a semi-big dedicated ground link (you can have different types of antennas that are bigger and hog more power for instance)

Chinese Researchers Say They Can Detect Stealth Aircraft Using Starlink Satellites

>As the South China Morning Post reports, the team used a DJI Phantom 4 Pro drone as a stand-in for such an aircraft for an experiment. Using a ground-based radar system, the team spotted the tiny drone thanks to the radiation emitted by a Starlink satellite, which was flying over the Philippines at the time.
>This idea is that when an aircraft passes between a satellite and an antenna back on the ground, it can scatter the satellite's electromagnetic waves — ripples that can be picked up by ground-based radar to identify targets.
>Thanks to the thousands of Starlink satellites that have been launched by SpaceX so far, scientists are now hoping to use disturbances in the high-frequency radio signals to track stealth aircraft.

Absolutely same problems. Same shitty contracting incentives, cost plus, same conglomerates involved. Failure to innovate, failure to deliver on time or on budget. No focus on materiale or results.

>The management is clueless and poorly communicates to employees within their departments or outside their departments.
>The current CTO knows very little about engineering and does not get his employees to work together to design properly fitting and functioning rocket parts.
>The woman dictating the lunar lander program has no idea how to manage anything. She does her own thing with total disregard to everyone else. HR does not care about employees. When you try to schedule a meeting or call to discuss concerns, they never respond because they don't care. HR let's some people get away with bad things. Employees get frustrated and quit all the time and that is in part, why they are always hiring. They can't pay any bills because they don't have enough money. They don't meet committed launch dates because their rockets always fail on the launch pad or they can't build them properly because of poor quality.

Just to manage your expectations of Firefly's Blue ghost lunar lander

If the FAA hadn't been pozzed, then the heavy booster catch would have failed, and the timing wouldn't have been so close to election even if it had succeeded.

The extra time Musk's team had to work out the kinks before hand was probably the determining factor that lead to it's success, and that could also be the reason flight 6 catch was aborted.

Up to three launches (of the total 25) would occur during nighttime hours from the VLA. Landings at the VLA would only take place during the daytime, with up to 22 Starship and 22 Super Heavy landings at the VLA. Daytime landings of either vehicle may also take place offshore as well. Up to three landings of Starship and three landings of Super Heavy may occur at night, only offshore. SpaceX would also conduct up to 90 seconds of licensed daytime Starship static fire tests and 70 seconds of licensed daytime Super Heavy static fire tests a year. The federal action also includes the FAA’s issuance of temporary airspace closures.

Smart guy syndrome. They were "reddit right" about hyperloop or some other detail which means they're better than him, and since they're not a billionaire, that means Elon is well above his reasonable position and will fail shortly. Maybe it's this. Maybe it's this this time. Alright I've been wrong for several years so I'm not stopping now. Raptor relight won't- uhhh
It's also sometimes political. Guy that believes the wrong thing can't actually be doing something good. Guy successful in a system I deem evil must be bad.
Last of all, maybe more common among science educators (entertainment types), is social brain. Everyone I see is charismatic and nice. Politicians, celebrities, the winners of popularity contests. Why do I keep seeing this retard? It more or less boils down to bullying an autistic man lol

These boxes do not have equal areas when projected onto the surface, the ones along the equator are much bigger and will have a higher likelihood of landing.

He at least hasn't made an EDS video since I left that comment, and he deleted the EDS video I left the comment on right after I posted it.

This has got to be the worst one.
It's also the one women have 100% of the time. My female relatives all hate Elon and it boils down to "he's weird" with zero consideration for anything else. Just pure bully mentality. They bully their unattractive male coworkers in the exact same way, which I have to listen to when they gossip about it.

People are still firmly under the belief that spaceflight should be government led. That commercial can never fundamentally push engineering and exploration bounderies.

I can almost understand the sentiment. Just looking at HLS vs Apollo, the Apollo program seems more advanced with landing on the moon with a single rocket vs launching 10 rockets to refill a starship.
One is seen as an excellent use of resources and engineering, the other is seen as just going to LEO a few times and brute forcing the problem with refueling.
Same with F9, candace and cost in itself isn't impressive as it's just LEO

Yeah no kidding. Will team A have a higher number than team B vs live footage of burnthrough during reentry. Maybe I'm autistic.
Though it just occurred to me that nearly every single athletic record will be broken on Mars. I bet 0.38 makes the long jump real easy

It's been years now, but this new Space News web layout is so dogshit and modernist. The old website was very information-dense. You could glance at it and scan your eyes for multiple headlines.
New layout is garabge and I hate modern web design in general. Using the internet was such a better experience in the 2000s
