>>16291497It's wider than the a380 and wider than the largest air hull ever flownI don't know why airplanes stopped getting bigger. But with rockets it seems like we'd want the biggest cargo hold that was buildable. Space is unique in that it's easier to deliver habitats than build them in pieces.

It is an honor to be with you all, here at the spacex national conventionAs a starship super delegate, I cast my vote for this crew window design
>>16291517>I don't know why airplanes stopped getting bigger.People prefer to fly from their starting airport direct to their destination if possible, and it's very hard to fill a plane with as many seats as an A380 or Boeing 747, and four-engine jets are expensive to operate. You get better seat-mileage out of twins flying direct flights, and airlines are sensitive to fuel prices.
does anyone here play with SDRs, antennas and stuff? I'm planning on doing so and I wonder if anyone here cares about that shit.

>>16291517>>16291530>>16291540Planes are getting bigger, just not quite in the way you think. Take a look at the A320neo family orders versus the original A320 family, almost no airline ordered the A319neo, but a ton of orders for the 320neo, and the most for the 321neo. The 747 and A380 were decades ahead of their time, yes part of their downfall is that people valued direct flights over indirect hub/spoke connections, but now even those indirect flights are getting busier, and airlines like AA and United have started up-gauging their fleets, United especially moving from the 787-8 to the larger 787-10https://news.aa.com/news/news-details/2024/American-Airlines-places-orders-for-Airbus-Boeing-and-Embraer-aircraft-FLT-03/default.aspx>As part of the Boeing order, American has upgauged 30 existing 737 MAX 8 orders to 737 MAX 10 aircraft.>American is focused on bringing larger, dual-class regional aircraft into its fleet, which will continue to drive connectivity from smaller markets to the rest of the airline’s global network. The airline expects to retire all of its 50-seat single-class regional jets by the end of the decade and will continue to serve small and medium-size markets with larger regional jets.https://apnews.com/article/united-airlines-orders-boeing-airbus-airplane-b650ef0da3ba9af0a8f2f9ec4fdc904f>The airplanes will be larger than those United is replacing. The Chicago-based company said that in 2019 it averaged 104 seats per North American departure. By 2027, United anticipates the figure climbing more than 40% to more than 145 seats.And while the A380 may be out of production, airlines that kept theirs are doing it for the long-haul, BA announced that they're overhauling their A380 fleet which means they'll be flying for another good 20 years, and who knows, by then routes might be so crowded that Airbus has to bring it back into production, or develop a successor.https://onemileatatime.com/news/british-airways-retrofitting-a380-new-cabins/
aren't most airports unprepared for large aircraft anyway? I mean, from what I've heard, they required extended landing strip, and probably hardened ones as well, because large planes can destroy them...
How long has starship had this second header tank?
>>16291791Looks like a BBC
>>16291788Unprepared for large aircraft like the A380? Yeah, that requires special gates, however every airline up-gauging their long-haul fleet to either the 777X or A350-1000 won't be an issue because they're still in the same ICAO gate size category (Code E), in fact, any gate that can fit a 787-8 (typically 242 passengers) can fit a 777X-9 (typically 395 passengers). Same goes for a narrow-body, a gate made for a 737-700 (128 passengers 2-class, Code C) will fit an A321neo (206 passengers 2-class).

https://spacenews.com/senate-appropriators-say-spending-bill-includes-nasa-increase/>“We have increased funding for NASA,” she said, but did not discuss specifics about the bill, which the committee has yet to release. NASA requested nearly $25.4 billion for fiscal year 2025 after receiving $24.875 billion in 2024. She didn’t say what the increase would be with respect to. >She did not discuss any specific programs, but Sen. Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), ranking member of the CJS subcommittee and the other co-chair of the delegation, mentioned Artemis. “I would emphasize that in last year’s appropriations bill and in this year’s appropriations bill, it’s been a goal of mine and others to make sure that Artemis is protected and that our plans to be on the moon are advanced,” he said. have to keep Artemis alive no matter what
>>16292062The problem is SLS, orion and gateway. If those 3 things weren't eating so much of the budget then nasa would actually be able to do all the things it wants. But the senate wants it's pork.

>>16292061Maybe morale would go up if they could accomplish space stuff instead of dumping resources into the trash pit that is MSR

>>16292088It’s actually very important that “europeans” continue to bomb eachother. I hope we can find room for both bombs and rovers in the budget.
What's the most plausible alternative to NASA? Scrap the whole organization. How do you fund and organize the realization of America's space programs?Points are awarded for effectiveness and plausibility.
>>16292062>biden-harris voter>distressedAs to be expected
>>16292088Budget is the limiting factor. We can't shoot billions of dollars into space and have nothing but "scientific discoveries" coming back. That equation changes if a wacky billionaire decides to throw his fortune into the effort, and fortunately Elon is actually smart enough to throw his fortune into smaller goals that will reduce the cost (cheap reusable heavy lift) and turn a profit (Starlink) so that he's not just bankrupting himself for soil samples.

>>16292049>TerraYou exist in the real worldYou will never live in some wild scifi future
>>16292100The problem with venus is that unlike mars you can't live on it until it's pretty much fully terraformed. It does need less maintenance once terraformed however so it does have that going for it. I don't see venus being terraformed until we all live in a dyson sphere with octillions of GDP to throw at the problem, but by then venus would only serve as an interesting wildlife reserve.
elon is so hopelessly reckless, we are about to lose the only hope for colonization bc he decided to give into his political bs
>>16292107I wouldn't get rid of nasa entirely. I'd just have the organization being a bunch of accountants dealing out money through competitive contracts like clps, cots and ccs.
>>16292100One hurdle I’ve heard about venus is that unlike mars which is dead and earth which has regular tectonic activity, venus does nothing for a few hundred million years then overturns its entire crust with volcanoes.Not a problem on human timescales or even hypothetical scifi time scales, but it does make it a pretty crappy place to put a backup for the flame of consciousness.
>>16292107probably similar to how grants are funded for academic research currently. the most interesting and cost effective proposals are funded, no mass autism constraints, no one off highly specialised tooling or instruments (unless they are a pathfinder). Missions are launched on commercial fully reusable launch vehicles at costs in the same ballpark as starship is projected to be, basically to the lowest bidder
>>16292119>does nothing for a few hundred million years then overturns its entire crust with volcanoes.The reason for this is because of it's high surface temperature. Fix that and venus might develop tectonics like earth.
You all know the drill. 'Automated spambot'

>>16292113>You will never live in some wild scifi futureYou'll be surprised to hear about Starlink, Starship and Neuralink!

>>16292186>NO YOU NEED TO FIX EVERY LITTLE SINGLE ISSUE ON EARTH FIRST YOU CAPITALIST PIG DOG!That's why. Crabs in Buckets.
>>16292119(We think) Venus does that because its crust is so hot it's too malleable to support plate tectonics. Lack of plate tectonics allows heat from radioactive decay to build up until a catastrophic mega eruption floods a huge portion of the surface. Cooling Venus' surface will likewise cool the crust & increase its brittleness. Toss in some active engineering, like drilling boreholes to drop water into to quench the deeper rock layers, and using nukes to chop the crust into "plates", and it may be possible to start plate tectonics there. If it isn't, we can still break the catastrophic resurfacing cycle by more manually removing heat, which would be done via deep boreholes and water heat transport to the surface. Hundreds of millions of years between events is a lot of time to build.

https://youtu.be/yonYf6zoR0YAnother great video from Eager Space!
>>16292352was listening to nsf yesterday or the day before and they all agreed that the tower will be fully stacked before IFT-5 launches
>>16292354My question got in!
https://x.com/eager_space/status/1815437970843087066NASA exceptionalism is dying. Commercial companies are succeeding where NASA is failing.
>>16292359Blame falls on
>>16292360Contracts, incentives, politics.
>>16292309>>16292322Can't wait to hear how we need to go to war with Iran for our greatest ally.
>>16292362Congress
>>16292359Does this stupid spx fag know commercial companies exist because NASA gives them contracts right? And if theses companies are doing alright means NASA is doing a good job
>>16292352oh shit wrong link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mhJRzQsLZGg
>>16292186But this guy told he would take us to mars in a couple of years, why does he want NASA to do it instead?
>>16292358may I ask, what was your question?
How will this fuck NASA and space industry in the coming years? The interest rate alone consumes good chunk of all US tax.
>>16292384It already has, input inflation has made all these pork contracts go from eventually limping across the finish line, to doomed to never finish.
>>16292384its either AI giving massive productivity boost and growing out of the debt or default at some point in the future
>>16292384They are goiing to poop amd shit and die, in that order. Any questiions?
>>16291791so much added cost and complexity when 4 falcon 9 launches would do the same. starship will be an even bigger piece of shit than the shittle
>>16292387>growing out of the debtkek thats a good one
>>16292384If you want to see where this ends up just look at japan recently. They've been running 0% interest rates for years and now suddenly inflation hit and now they terrified of raising interest rates for fear of exploding their debt payments. There comes a point where you gotta choose to either let your debt blow up or inflate it away.
>>16292384>US defaults>worst economic recession ever is the last straw>civil war over it and all the other dumb shit like muh red and muh blue>US balkanizes>NASA ceases to exist>president Greg 'Hot Wheels' Abbott appoint Elon Musk as minister of industry>the New Texas Republic is the new leader in space
when starship will be human rated?
>>16292402As long as I get a bj from two hot chicks, i'll vote for this
>>16292400the only good option is to burn down the federal reserve (not federal, no reserves), abolish debt based fiat "money" and replace ot with a .gov issued currency, backed by something real.
>>16292404After Musk braps into Biden's mouth
>>16292402>Texas Republic>Elon space minister>Unrestricted testing and launching >Capital and people in flow from all space heads world over into Texas>All industry dedicated to space rush>Texas flag on Martian soilStop entertaining such silly dreams
>>16292375Wealthy people prefer spending other people's money. It's part of the reason why they remain wealthy.
>>162924046 years from now
>>16292408You literally cannot go into default if you print your own currency
>>16292419you also dont have to pay 3/4th of your tax revenue to private bankers
>>16292419yes but you might lose your status as the worldwide reserve currency and after printing enough you get hyperinflationmaybe you don't default, the result might still be largely the same
>>16292413so that's why Martians had Texan accents in the historical documents (Expanse)
The rocks produce breathing gashttps://www.scientificamerican.com/article/dark-oxygen-discovered-coming-from-mineral-deposits-on-deep-seafloor/>Now researchers have discovered that these valuable nodules do something remarkable: they produce oxygen and do so without sunlight.>The idea that some of the gas may come from these inanimate minerals and be produced in total darkness “really strongly goes against what we traditionally think of as where oxygen is made and how it's made,” says Jeffrey Marlow, a microbiologist at Boston University and a co-author of the study, which was published on Monday in Nature Geoscience.>Evidence of dark oxygen production at the abyssal seafloorhttps://www.nature.com/articles/s41561-024-01480-8

I’ve heard people claim Biden could have axed it but chose to keep it online. I’m not sure what the truth of the matter is. Kind of glad we are still rolling with it but lol it would have been nice if he killed it (because 99% of the program is bloat. Although it would have meant no HLS Moonship and no americans going back to the moon, at least certainly not before China)>>16291677Most of the time it’s ‘what you see is what you get’. Most modern spacecrafts utilize running lights, similar to how the ISS is illuminated although not as bright—with most sunlight supplied via natural sunlight. Ancillary direct lights are usually thrown in to illuminate control panels/workspace areas. Photography is craft-dependent and you need to set up your camera differently depending on whether or not you are photographing the ISS/tiangong interior or the dragon/soyuz/starliner/orion/shenzhou interior
>>16292588Biden - Nelson - SLSno chance lol
I like rockets. rockets are pretty cool I think.
>>16292588Even if Artemis was scrapped and SpaceX never got money for HLS, they would have developed moon landing as a test bed for their mars ambitions. The speed may have been slower but it would probably have been a close race with China anyways.

As he will no longer be a taxpayer there, his interests will be represented in Congress by other states, mainly Texas. This will likely remove any incentive Harris would have to assist SpaceX, as she is a creature of the political machine in California. NASA is also focusing on California, and is building its first new research center in decades out at Moffett Field: https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaeltnietzel/2023/10/17/university-of-california-berkeley-and-nasa-to-build-new-2-billion-space-research-center/. The timing of SpaceX's move is going to cast a shadow over the future of the center, which may end up being canceled or reduced depending on a congressional whim before its completion.
>>16293125Silver/precious metals bros are going to win. Paper money situation is getting pretty bad globally, yen is the main fucked one going goodbye soon and once a few start to go, trust goes too. Nations won't want to exchange toilet paper for tangible goods in the not too distant future. Only options are bitcoin for a decentralised no counter party risk settlement or some kind of thoroughly audited precious metal reserve backed currency. Given the amount of smart cunts in here, it's embarrassing how many people still put stock in printed toilet paper fiat war money. Guess there is still a lot of american exceptionalism rhetoric going around, lol lmao. Imagine trusting the currency of the government that gives unlimited wet ink fresh off the printer bills to boing and ULA. Anyone with a decent IQ can see the writing on wall, which is why JP Morgan has the single largest physical silver reserve and why countries around the world are scooping gold as fast as possible without annihilating the market.
>>16293151This shit ain't spaceflight
>>16293154Spaceflight needs money chaim
>>16293034Bedeviled egg!
>>16293154USD bagholder observed
>>16293151precious metal cultists are the funniest shit
>>16293139Thank you for your thoughtful response. Puts many of my own thoughts in context

>>16293031Never thought I would miss the Daily Starlink
>>16293151>silver>precious metalmight as well collect copper, silver collecting is just a cope for people who can't afford gold
>>16293195Industrial ass looking launch towers aren't going to be acceptable for commercial passenger spaceflight
>>16293203Silver:gold ratio is the lowest it has ever been despite silver being mass destroyed through industrial processes and mining discovery+productivity declining year on year, cope. But yes, gold is still also a good way to squirrel your finances away from paper money Judaism.
I can't wait to just drop a gold asteroid on earth to permanently make gold worth nothing.
>>16293215Delta v ignorant moron
>>16293218>ohh noo I have to spend a while tacking against the sun
starships made of gold alloy
>>16293219Clueless
>>16293222so you don't know?
>>16292627lots of little red dots, not sure what they are
>>16293002It already feels like a month
>>16292670cool it!
>>16293154Spaceflight is political.
>>16293195I thought you guys said they were only going to build a few SLS's?
>>16293246That picture is not real.
>>16293223Present your precious metal rich asteroid-earth intercept proposal
>>16293257>not wanting everybody on earth to be a trillionaire
>>16293261>no proposal foundAs expected
>>16292419Well thats not true. If things get bad enough then you're left with a choice between default and hyperinflation.Sure, almost everyone would choose hyperinflation but default is certainly still a possibility if for whatever reason the government prefers it over hyperinflation.
>>16293268I hate the asteroid mining fags so much man>they have gold>gold is valuable >there are no other factors I'm aware of>you can make money They just don't know about space
>>16291344>The US is the least corrupt nation on earthThanks for the laugh anon
>>16293257I have no interest in spoonfeeding you in-space propulsion. Delta-v is a solved problem for asteroid mining.
>>16293282OK so no arguments found. Thank you.
>>16292655>>16292673This but unironically. People in the arctic circle regularly go through periods of night and day longer than that. As well thanks to the fossil record we know this is no problem for earth life too. Back in the jurassic the poles were sub-tropical and had an ecosystem that reflected that.>>16292659Thats why I prefer the seeding with hydrogen plan for venus, get rid of the CO2 and make an ocean at the same time. Only issue is getting the hydrogen there.
>>16292587>more whiningcontinue to seethe for no reason mr tranny.
>>16293282>hmm it actually is possible >how you ask? hm would take too long to explain
Can't you just use solar sails if time isn't an issue?
>>16293299what the the hell are you talking about? did you intend for this to be a reply to someone?
>>16293301Being unable to read subtext doesn't make you smart.Quite the opposite in fact.
why does a lack of falcon 9 launches make you guys so angry.there's no launches for a while and immediately you guys turn into a bunch of overly political pissy faggots. my woman on her period bitches less than you do, can we just all get along?
>>16293303Being unable to use a website doesn't make you smart.Quite the opposite in fact.
>>16293326>unable to use a websiteI'm using it right now dipshit. How are you able to type being this stupid?
>>16293329I see you've figured out how to use the reply function. Keep it up and you'll fit right in soon enough
>>16293211Can't eat it nigger. Can of beans or bullets going to be worth a hell of a lot more in your post apocalyptic fantasy.
Jannies need to nuke this thread
>>16293355They deorbit threads once they reach End of Life (Page 10)
>>16293361Why does it need fuck hueg solar panels? It wlll literally be a stripped down Dragon (ie. less power requirements) with a larger unpowered payload.
>>16293361Why is the dragon capsule part even necessary? Isn't that just dead weight?
>>16293380It's cheaper and easier to use a dragon capsule to dock with the ISS and house all of the comms/electrical/batteries than to develop a DV with all of that onboard, there also won't be a need for a lot of heavy stuff like lifesupport, seats, heatshield etc...
>>16293389Fair point about the docking.
>>16293366Probably the same reason cargo dragon does?
STAGE US ALREADY
