>In the 21st century, overpopulation has become such a problem that scientists begin preparing for the colonization of Mars. Their first steps in the terraforming of Mars involve seeding the planet with moss in order to absorb the sunlight and create a hospitable atmosphere as well as increase the surface temperature. They also introduce cockroaches in order to spread the moss.
>500 years later, in the year 2599, a crewed mission is sent to the red planet to clear out the cockroach colony in preparation for the human colonization of Mars. Eventually they come upon human-sized anthropomorphic cockroaches [...]

Goalpost status: moved.
There absolutely were detractors who thought retropropulsive reentry couldn't work, and that a viable stage couldn't carry enough propellant and recovery hardware to be useful. By conventional high energy upper stage standards, they would have been right, but the high power upper stage of Falcon makes it work. Ironically, that too had been a long standing area of criticism with the launch vehicle, claiming that it was inefficient and forced payloads to endure higher G-loads than gentler lofted trajectories from vehicles like Ariane V.

About a million and one random industry hitpieces and detractor posts on the internet that I cannot be arsed to dig for. "It isn't useful" was the next goalpost move after the first successful recovery. Then it was "it can't make money because it's not affordable to reuse a booster." Now that SpaceX is routinely reflying reflown boosters at high margin, literally everyone is copying them.

Apparently that's what the ISS O2 recycling does: split water to O2 and H2; react H2 with CO2 to reclaim some H2O and dump the excess CH4. Only 50% recovery. Seems like a waste to me.
https://www.esa.int/Science_Exploration/Human_and_Robotic_Exploration/Research/Advanced_Closed_Loop_System
On Mars I would keep the excess CH4 and use it as chemical feedstock, e.g. for polymers, or making synthetic starch.

>Christophe Bonnal of the launcher directorate at French space agency CNES, agrees.
>“If you reuse, you stop producing, depending on the level of reusability,” he says. “So you end up with a permanent prototype, and to keep costs down you need to have a high rate of production.”
>“You end up designing much larger vehicles, with landing gear, with legs or wings, so it's heavier and you need more propulsion, at least 25-30% more propulsion on the stage,” Bonnal said, adding that a previous study by CNES and Russian space agency Roscosmos looked at the feasibility of making the Ariane 5 solid-rocket boosters liquid-fueled and reusable, but scrapped the idea after the hardware grew too large.
>But beyond performance, says Bonnal is the impact of rocket reusability on ground installations. As an example, he said CNES has found that safety requirements would make return of a boost stage problematic at Europe's South American space port in Kourou, French Guiana.
>“I will be very interested in seeing the three Falcon Heavy boosters coming back to Vandenberg with propellant sloshing,”

>The link shows the layout of the engine which appears to be a tap off type of open cycle. When you think about the Nerva design requirements ( i.e. as part of Von Brauns vision of having nuclear powered stages in a giant rocket to go straight to mars), thrust to weight was a more important metric than ISP (of which there was plenty). An expander cycle was non viable given the engine bell size and thrust requirements.

Turns out the political spectrum was more than just one single dimension lef-right that this society constantly portrays. He's been criticizing the govt and lefties (economic and social sense) because he must be tired of them always trying to bring him down every single fucking day. It's like an annoying obstacle on his way to Mars. But anyways, it seems he doesn't care that much about petty human politics, which have caused almost every conflict in the history of our species, apart from religion. He talked about a direct democracy on Mars but that's about it.
This is also why almost every single political group hates him nowadays, he doesn't adhere to any ideology in particular. If he's not with us, then he's against us.

An open cycle solid core is where propellant passes directly over the core and out the nozzle, closed cycle is where fuel passes over the hot coolant loop and out the nozzle, never directly touching the core.
The benefit of open cycle is that it's much lighter, obviously, and heat transfer is more prompt. Closed cycle is safer, with reaction mass (cold coolant) and the core's hot coolant loop separated there's no possibility that hot fuel material will end up in the exhaust.

Blue has also been poaching people from ULA during this whole process. ULA can’t compete at all when it comes to compensation vs Blue, so there’s been at least some degree of lost talent as well. Kinda surprised they didn’t instigate a non compete on stuff like that as part of the engine deal.

Dang, you ever walk outside late at night on a cool clear night and marvel at the brightness of a full moon and the amount of stars you can see even in a big city? I see shooting stars often even in Houston. Space is so interesting. How can normies not look up at a night sky and want to explore? How could they actively want to try and shut starship down? Do they even look at a night sky?

You don't need the minor amount of lift generated by a lifting body versus a cylindrical object when you're going to space without airbreathing engines. You only need it for the landing horizontally meme and "crossrange capability" meme, which is especially dumb because once you committed to a reentry burn you don't need access to other landing sites and with a greater range you need more thermal protection. Spacebricks solve a problem rockets do not have.

Dignitaries included the Chief of Staff of the United States Army, General William Westmoreland, four cabinet members, 19 state governors, 40 mayors, 60 ambassadors and 200 congressmen. Vice President Spiro Agnew viewed the launch with former president Lyndon B. Johnson and his wife Lady Bird Johnson. Around 3,500 media representatives were present. About two-thirds were from the United States; the rest came from 55 other countries. The launch was televised live in 33 countries, with an estimated 25 million viewers in the United States alone. Millions more around the world listened to radio broadcasts. President Richard Nixon viewed the launch from his office in the White House with his NASA liaison officer, Apollo astronaut Frank Borman.

It is in contradiction with naive models like QI, yes. MOND (which QI is based on) actually has a get-out-of-jail-free card in that they can invoke the external field effect. The EFE says that the dwarf galaxy orbing the more massive galaxy doesn't see the MOND effect because of the external field, but then it's not clear at all why other satellite galaxies aren't also like this. It's all easily explained in dark matter models, where this is likely due to tidal stripping.
There are a number of astronomical observations which are incompatible with QI. McCulloch apparently doesn't care. The only reason it hasn't been ridiculed more is the fact it basically only exists on a blog and /sfg/. Most of his cosmological musings aren't published.

Only issue I see with that is if there'd be enough people that could and would blow a million bucks on a week in orbit to make it able to recoup the costs of setting it up.
Alternatively

Not necessarily, it depends on their luminosity and number density. For example JWST is unlikely to detect the first generation stars, because they're far too fain individually. It's also probably not going to detect early quasars or the first supernovae, because they're rare and it has a small field of view. Even if they are detectable and numerous, there also needs to be a way of identifying them from other objects.

I think the quality control required for passenger launches precludes one week turnaround time and a $2.5m launch cost anytime soon. Imagine crashing with 100 people onboard; it would be unacceptable. It would be to space tourism what the Hindenburg was to zeppelins, there would be an onslaught of new expensive regulations, Musk's personal brand would be damaged, and Tesla sales would go down.

It's a little more complicated now I think. The plan from the early-ish stages was probably to have some small infrastructure on the Moon delivered by what they assumed would just be an Apollo-style lander. But now with starship they are likely just planning on using the starship itself as the permanent habitats. Idk why they can't just release that info now but it might have something to do with not wanting to name starship, or Elon or Shotwell has told them to wait until after the orbital flight or something. No one knows.
>>13996041
>now that NASA acknowledges that starship exists
>now
It's not that they haven't. Big Jim called starship by name during the post-landing press conference for BobnDoug. Astronauts routinely fly to Starbase in their jets as part of their astronaut training (they even visited in person a few times). Even in the Artemis post from a few days ago I don't think they uttered the words "starship" though. There is a LOT of political incentive to not name it, which is strange considering they freaking went with it as the main lander.

It's not strange, Starship mogs their "most powerful rocket" in almost every way, so obviously they pretend it doesn't exist. For now, they can, since it's still in prototype phase.

Yeah that's no secret. Congress sort of forced that hand though. So much money was sunk into the Space Launch System, a huge rocket that can do absolutely nothing, that the only way to actually LAND on the Moon was to go with Starship. A much bigger rocket that can do more for way less money. I can't tell if it was NASA's way of saying "f-you" or "well we didn't really have a choice desu"
Probably a bit of both

Kathy Leuders choose HLS during the transition period before Biden admin took powers and after Trump left. Soon as Biden admin too power and his senator sworn in, they demoted her and removed her from Starship all together. Was that lost on you?

Are you still trying to force this narrative? If Biden administration hated SpaceX so much, they'd have pressured GAO to agree with BO and repeat the whole bid for HLS. But they didn't. Then BO sued NASA and the latter defended their choice, and SpaceX, in the court.

The lack of carbon on the Moon is so dumb. Assuming we got smacked by Theia and the Moon is the same composition, more or less, what process drove the Carbon off? Did it get vaporized as the Moon was forming and cooling? Did it get locked deeper in the mantle or something? And on that note why is it easily accessible on Earth?

There was a clear goal with Apollo. Beat the commies. Failure is not an option. Cost-plus contracts were divied out because the technology literally did not exist
SLS and Artemis is fundamentally different. No solid goal, no one to beat. The rocket is an evolution of the Shuttle which had already devolved into a jobs program. They took that idea and made it even worse because, for some reason, everyone got cost-plus contracts. Therefore you are incentivized to slip and go over budget because you just get more time and money

Basically as anon said.
It all boils down to the lack of pressure, or motivation, whatever you call it. There is space race any more, so space isn't a priority. That's why the NASA gets only 0.48% of the federal budget, and that's why contractors exploit cost-plus contracts.

I get what you're saying because no one has ever really dug past what the apollo astronauts did in their short time with a shovel, but keep in mind that if you know the mass and volume and surface composition from remote sensing of a body you can model what you should expect to see even further down. Not to mention the fact that we have retrieved a wide range of rocks directly from the surface of the Moon and with the chemical composition of that you can pretty accurately model the melt evolution of where those rocks came from to see if you should expect carbon to have ever existed at all in the system in the first place. But again who is to say there isn't some unknown reservoir deeper down where carbon might exist

Well the astronauts will still be qualified it's not like they chose the first cunny and darkskin they could find. In fact it might be Glover and Rubins as the first two, both of which are extremely based. It's just so fucking condescending both to women and people of color, and even white people, to try and sell that angle. Don't go around explicitly shoving your tokens into the spotlight that is just disrespectful. Land glover and rubens and a white man and a few more people on a Starship, let them all take the first step at the same time (because the elevator down to the surface is huge) and you can have them make announcements like "let this be an inspiration to all the little girls out there who want to do what I do. Study science, do your homework, and make goals for yourself. There is nothing stopping you from being an astronaut!"

Orion always had a relatively modest dV by design. It was originally planned that Altair would make the burn into LLO. In which case there is no point having a heavy SM. Orion already had mass problems.

>On January 4, 1970, NASA announced the cancellation of Apollo 20 so that its Saturn V could be used to launch the Skylab space station as a "dry workshop". Apollos 18 and 19, had been canceled after the Apollo 13 incident and further budget cuts.
>In August 1971, President Richard Nixon even proposed to cancel all remaining lunar landings (Apollo 16 and 17). His Office of Management and Budget Deputy Director Caspar Weinberger was opposed to this, persuading Nixon to keep the remaining Moon missions, but recommended that if such cancellation would happen that it be "on the ground that Apollo 15 was so successful in gathering needed data that we can now shift, sooner than previously expected, to the Space Shuttle, Grand Tour, NERVA, etc"
N1 last flight was BEFORE Apollo 17. Although the next Apollo missions were already canceled by that time, and during that year they had already approved the shuttle, there was still some hope left.

He can strip any problem down to its fundamentals and remove all biases conscious and subconscious intrinsically; and then expects everyone around him to do the same to work with him. Its whats allowed Tesla and SpaceX to make immense amounts of progress in 20 years.

The problem with that this style of thinking though, is that it basically implies that your entire style of thinking in everything you do is wrong at every possible level and with everyone. To some, that's deeply offensive. That's what leads to woke bullshit criticism with Elon. He is driven by first principles and the laws of physics. He could not give two fucks less about your indigenous backed philosophies for sustainability, because that solution is loaded with various forms of biases that drag it down and its not the simplest, most cost effective, and highest performing solution that can be conducted.

I feel like in a very close timeline, if Russia had a working, reliable heavy-to-super heavy lift vehicle a la Energia, they would build a station again with us despite the rising geopolitical tension. That is to say, in the grand scheme of things I think ukraine and whatnot aren't really severing our ties. It is their arrogance and reliance on soyuz/proton and embarrassment that we are building SLS, going to the Moon and taking every nation as a tagalong, and now we have F9 and FH and Starship
