The first liquid rocket took flight over 100 years ago. Since then we haven’t developed any new means of space propulsion.Why are we stagnating?
the amount of ressources spent to fly around our dusty fren should be invested into the research of new propulsion technology such as anti-gravity and warp.We are using antiquated tech which is bareley sufficient to keep ISS operational and has high risk of failure, this is NOT the futureThe key is antimatter and WE EUROPEANS are doing great progress!https://home.cern/news/press-release/experiments/base-experiment-cern-succeeds-transporting-antimatter
>>16943224Is the antimatter powering the car?
>>16943211you forgot to mention it was the American Robert H. Goddard who accomplished that, and no germ
>>16943249>and no germyou should go back to /pol/
>>16943245>how to turn your car into a severe radiation hazard with one simple trick
>>16943211First water boiling power generation system happened thousands of years ago. Since then, we're still stuck on boiling water to generate energy.
>>16943211so much tech and hard work for a tiny local explosion, folks should really start using nukes more frequent
>>16943211literally not true, NASA just announced a nuclear propulsion mission to Mars for 2028
>>16943303Still too slow. Only useful for traveling within our solar system and that’s not much use. To be able to visit habital planets we need to go faster then the speed of light
>>16943211Don’t tell this faggot about closed-cycle rockets
>>16943458Still a rocketStill slow
>>16943321No, in order for YOU to visit habitable planets, YOU would need to move faster than light. Humanity as a whole can travel for generations
horses were domesticated 5000 years agowhy did we stagnate for 4800 years for any new means of transportation?
>>16943211Because the combination of our planet's mass, size, and composition makes very few things more efficient for getting lots of mass into orbit.
>>16943321There is a good chance there is no FTL. Besides we haven't even implemented NTP which was demonstrated in the 60s. There is no social, cultural or political will to seriously pursue spaceflight
>>16943211We've had nuclear thermal rockets for decades, just not flying for safety concerns.
>>16943211>The wheel was invented eleventy gorillion years ago. Since then we haven't developed any new means of ground transportation. Why are we stagnating?
