Why? It's part of human culture since the ancient times and is the reason we even exist. It's a symbol of Earth's uniqueness and is something interesting to observe in the night sky.

Anons, how retarded/unfeasible is this idea for unmanned missions:

The idea would be to build a smaller version of LHC in space which would serve as the propulsion device for small probes (e.g. 100 grams or whatever), using lasers as power delivery and slowly applying electromagnetic propulsion to the object that we're trying to launch to other galaxies.

>Build a series of modular rings which will form a ring structure in space
>Launch and position the modules individually until they form this ring structure in whatever orbit is optimal
>Launch a relay station for power delivery, which will sit closer to earth

You'd fire a high power laser to the relay station, and the relay station would redirect the laser beam to one of the ring modules, the ring module would take some of that energy (while passing the rest of the laser beam to the next ring module) and push the probe to the next ring in the loop using electromagnetism. The cycle would repeat until you accelerate the object to the required speed, at some point you'd just let the object pass through the ring when it's aligned to your target destination.

how retarded is this on a scale from 1-10?

okay I did some googling, looks like transporter 13, NET feb
>>
>>16535428
In that case, would it be possible to position this ring structure reasonably far away from earth, assuming it doesn't compromise the power delivery too much? We'd be speeding up these objects inside the ring over the course of 2-3 years, or more, maybe there's wiggle room for a less than optimal laser power delivery

seems like the idea is more dangerous/risky than retarded

militarized thirdies like chinks and other shitholes are very insecure about themselves and usually adopt the foreign propaganda tactic of the "blowfish" kinda like that one scene from breaking bad, except it doesn't actually work and all it actually does is give MIC lobbyists in western countries ammo with which to fearmonger so they can sell a ridiculously overkill plan of preparation to politicians.

you saw this again recently with le chink 6th gen.
no doubt it's a capable plane but the blowfish dictates that they sell it like an unmatched UFO because hey, it's got no vertical stabilizers, nobody's EVER seen that before and it looks cool!

Maybe. Soyuz has launched pretty consistently over the last five years and that doesn't look like it's going to change this year. Rocket Lab's had ambitious predictions for the last few years that they've consistently failed to reach, mostly due to payload delays or lack of customers. Electron will need to have a very good year and Soyuz would need to have a very below average year.

>Estimates on 2025 numbers?
i lean towards 300 for global launches since it fits the trend (see pic). the safe estimate though is 250-300 launches. 250 if things go poorly, 300 if things go well. one of the NSF talking heads thinks 350 is possible, which is plausible but wildly optimistic imo.

>>16535466
china doesnt have enough payloads afaik. they only just started to launch some of their megaconstellation sats, so maybe their numbers will jump up this year.
>>
>>16535482
They're launching Neutron this year. Russia only had 4 more launches last year
>>
>>16535527
to be fair, rocketlab is a company based in the US and their neutron operations are entirely in the US, neutron will probably never launch from new zealand unless they see use in launching polar missions from there, but that would require building a launch pad, support infrastructure and shipping neutrons all the way over there, just for better polar and SSO orbit performance

Having admin access wouldn't be indicative of this being Elon, as there are plenty of users in X who would have admin privileges besides Elon. This is common in most organizations, as admin privileges are trivial to get as an engineer depending on which department you're a part of. It's root privileges that are difficult to get and those are very well safeguarded. If that screenshot gave you root privileges and indicated as such, that would be way more likely that this impersonator is in fact Elon all along.

Dark Energy may not be real. But, it's not in an exciting way, but a way that Relativity is adequate to account for. Time runs faster without gravity wells, and for light passing through cosmic voids, enough time passes more quickly that regular cosmic expansion looks like it's accelerating to viewers on the other side. Dark Energy can potentially be explained away this way, but it doesn't add any new exotic phenomena in the process.

someone is mad that it's common knowledge advanced gravimeters of the kind commonly used in survey work today were classified technology until they were disclosed to the public through a multi-madia hollywood production

"Twentieth century technology thus addressed many of the shortfalls the 19th century torsion balance. Bell created a sensitive gradiometer that was easy to use and could work from a moving vehicle. This technology remained classified, however, until the end of the Cold War because of the important role it played in America’s nuclear deterrent."

"Post-Cold War relaxation of some security restrictions in the 1990’s brought the Navy technology to the attention of oil geologists. The military advancements in gravity gradient measurement technology made the gravity gradiometer attractive again for use in the search for oil almost 100 years after Eotvos developed his first torsion balance."

I assure that the usable pressurized volume of those Salyut stations are not even one third of what is depicted in those images. Apart from looking way bigger than it actually is, the dozens of cables, and cargo compartments laying around, only leave you with enough space to barely even being in a standing position. Add to that the moldy smell, and you get the real Soviet experience. Starship will finally end the cuckpod(tm) fetish that both Russians and Americans love so much.

and?
also why did you disprove your first sentence in your own post? that particular design was declassified by the US when it was deemed no longer tactically important, people already knew about gravimeters regardless.
my guess is your point is that the US has classified things in the past therefore all of my schizo fantasies are actually real and just hidden somewhere?

Picking up on my old save and seeing what there is to do, I left lots of stuff on the alarm clock schedule, various things going various places. In 250ish days I can send pic related back to Jool with another 40 cryogenically frozen Kerbal colonists on board, bound for Laythe. Last time I played I was in the middle of an attempt to get a small base of 15+ Kerbals on each island there to really call it "colonized" but I didn't do them all yet.

I have around 130 craft in flight currently across the whole game and my PC room gets noticeably warmer when I play KSP, no other game I throw at this computer does that. For years I played on a more limited machine, upgrading was necessary to finally play like I want, with tons of mods and a prettier solar system. Now I've got crew in stasis on 20+ year trips to the outer planets, Sarnus and the others from the Outer Planets mod. While they drift, I fuck around on Laythe.
>>
>>16535966
Any specs for your pc? Ngl, the only reason I would get a desktop is to play some heavily-modded KSP in 4k. Talking about mainly RSS, and lots visual enhancers. Even if it is to just "simulate" a routine mission to LEO, like some youtubers do, where if you didn't know about KSP you'd think it's either real of some expensive hollywood CGI.
>130 craft in flight
that's insane
>no other game I throw at this computer does that.
unfortunately, calculating all trajectories and physical properties, collisions, etc of all the little parts does that. well, the spaghetti code doesn't help, either.

This is pretty good, I voted 11-15 but I feel like it's going to be either that (14-ish) or 8, the other top option, with not really much chance for the in-between. Depends on whether they start reusing the booster.
Also did we do this last year as well so we could see how it went? I do my own personal predictions for a bunch of stuff that I can compare to but I don't think there was much in here.

there is also the issue of EU bureucrats fucking with him and his companies (especially X and censorship issues) that might have finally sent him over the edge
getting rid of the pointless and actively harmful bureucracy in Europe should help the European economy which would help Tesla in particular there, but generally also affect the world economy and his other companies
Europe becoming stronger economically and militarily subsequently would also mean that US doesn't need to put so much resources into defending it

The diagram is based on the latest flight 7 press release here: https://www.spacex.com/launches/mission/?missionId=starship-flight-7

The "smart battery" language is actually in the original:
>integrated smart batteries and power units that distribute data and 2.7MW of power across the ship to 24 high-voltage actuators

Generally, smart batteries include electronics to manage charging and discharging.

>>16536557
Something that has been around forever. The Zune had a "smart battery"
It manages charge and discharge to optimize battery efficiency because some types of batteries actually have charge "memory"

Just something else aincent that musk is pretending to be a genius and original for using in his systems

It's called a smart battery because there's additional "intelligence" in the form of the electronics that manage the battery.

Yep, NG got moved to the 10th.

>NG and SS on the same day
Fucking kino.

That means, in my timezone, I will get to watch NG launch while I'm having my morning cup of tea, then when I'm in bed later that night, I will get to watch SS launch while drinking my nightly glass of milk.

New Glenn will have to compete directly with FH on cost/kg. It will be interesting how the market price tracks, considering NG second stage is horrendously expensive.

fat
>>
>>16536739

>>16536685
The FH was an after thought and probably a waste of time
>>
>>16536728
It's payload fairing is bigger so that might enable missions that are not possible on FH. It can also lift more so you can jam more shit in there to lower the cost
>>
>>16536754
FH stole multiple payloads from SLS, it was absolutely necessary
>>
New Glenn is real
>>
>>16536755
I would not be surprised to find that expendable FH is lower cost than reusable NG. As for price to customer, NG is unlikely to be priced to recoup dev costs. It will probably be priced near FH asking

ArianeSpace calculated New Glenn's cost to customer to be $68 million, midway between baseline F9 and baseline FH pricing. This will kill everyone but BO and SpaceX lol

It's still going to be lower than any old space rockets and the price will come down over time

I could have sworn there was a legitimate effect on gravity the closer particles got to absolute zero. There were legitimate breakthroughs and it was even on TV.
I'm a little worried because Google doesn't remember them.
