Ungreateful roastie, there's no pleasing them

Wally Funk, 82, gives Jeff Bezos’ space adventure a not-so-stellar review
>Speaking at a post-flight press conference, she implied that she and her three fellow crew mates didn’t quite travel high enough or spend long enough in zero gravity for her liking.
>“We went right on up and I saw darkness. I thought I was going to see the world, but we weren’t quite high enough,” the former NASA trainee reportedly admitted.
>And although its four passengers – the Amazon founder, his brother Mark, Dutch 18-year-old Oliver Daemen, and Funk – could see Earth from the windows of the capsule, the view couldn’t quite match that seen from the International Space Station, which is about four times higher than they went.
>Footage shared from the mission shows the crew were treated to a look at the edge of the planet’s atmosphere, as well as the blackness of space, but no, they weren’t quite high enough to “see the world,” as she put it.

Novel Concept for Retrofitting Non-Autonomous Automobiles to Function as Autonomous Automobiles

Central to this concept would be a specialized headlamp module that would replace a given automobile’s factory headlamps and would be designed to match the form factor of the factory headlamps. The modules would serve not only as headlamps, but would serve as both RADAR and LiDAR units capable of generating high-resolution 3D maps of the environs of the automobile.

Essential to function would be an upgraded computer and a cervo-control system capable of manipulating the steering column as needed.

LiDAR design:

The specialized headlamps, rather than using rotational, or even mirror-wobble LiDAR (a workaround for a different patent that predates both of those LiDAR designs) this design would utilize my own proprietary design, currently in use by the U.S. Navy (Aegis Block-1B and later) and Israeli Defense Forces (Iron Dome System.) This design relies on a laser to project light at a very specific frequency, with no other frequencies of light contaminating the beam, and a specialized prism that has the attribute of no two parts of the prism having the same thickness. In this way, a single laser can be split into an infinite variety of frequencies, each of which correspond to a different geospacial area in the “point cloud,” the current industry term in use.

Although that LiDAR design is not the newest on the market, it is the best, and seeing as I invented it, I should have the right to recombine it with other technologies in other contexts as I see fit, and as such, I submit it here for publication.

Was it autism?

Why didn't we evolve to dispose of our post-menopausal women? They serve very little purpose to a tribe that is struggling to make ends meet, and that is the state we lived in for many millennia of our evolution, so one would think we would have evolved to get rid of them at menopause.

What some good ways to prevent life threatening appendicitis while far from civilization?

Is stoicism the answer to all the problems in science? Why isn't it taught in schools?

Seems like an interesting idea to study it. what are /sci/ thoughts on it

How may I achieve Chim, scientifically speaking?
