>>17056202Please daddy Elon give us some crumbs
>>17056202he'd get less shit if he looked that fr
>>17056148Output? No. So far I think it's some radio waves and a few probes. Earth was such a money sink, absolute garbage ROI.
Claim your rocket wife! Sorry, the Saturn V is spoken for.
If you want to simulate what'd be like to land on an alien planet full of bacteria and viruses we're no immune to, just go to India. If you survive there, you can survive anywhere in the galaxy
>>17056242saar please delete
>>17056242as far as we know, there are no bacteria or viruses anywhere else except earth
>>17056144Ok but how does the Earth colony benefit Mars?
>>17056249Mars has no value if there aren't people there to enjoy it. Much like the rest of the universe.
>>17056242Saar that is offensive, only 37% of western visitors fall violently ill here, and a tiny fraction die of dysentery, delet ur hateful post. We hose our streets clean every morning, how often do your streets gets hoses off? Very bad information! Delete!
This is what ARK Invest's CEO Cathie Wood has to say about SpaceX.> Each Starship launch could generate $1 billion in revenue. Elon is aiming for 10,000 flights per year, or $10 trillion in Starship revenues, by 2030. If SpaceX achieves this goal, its $1.75 trillion IPO will be considered, in hindsight, a deep value opportunity!
>>17056321Grok, what do you think about this silly hole?>Her flagship ARK Innovation exchange-traded fund (ETF) was considered by Morningstar to be the third highest "wealth destroyer" investment fund
>>17056322She didn't say to invest in her fund. She did an analysis of SpaceX's likely outcome.
>>17056321Pretty silly to assume that increasing network capacity won't yield diminishing returns with your models.
>>17056202DAAAAMN ELON LOOKS LIKE THAT NOW?
>>17056338Like a basketball with limbs
>>17056330Her evaluation was ridiculous. But off course simps believe.
>>17056368And yet she's a billionaire and you're here with the rest of us.
>>17056371Being a billionaire does not stop you from making mistakes.
>>17056373What's the error in what she said about SpaceX?
Project Hail Mary is kino but Ad Astra was better
>>17056414the fact that she's wrong lol.
>>17056414The error is Linear growth in satellites deployed = linear revenue growth. It will be non-linear.
>>17056421Ok aside from that
>>17056158>starship (maybe) making an orbital debut a single month before the Q4 Mars launch windowThose "up to five" Starships definitely aren't going are they bros...
>>17056436what mars
>>17056436we'll get maybe one martian and one moon starship in-between the constant starlink/starmind launches.
>>17056452Elon will send one of his shitbots to Mars to plant a flag and call it quits
dicks flying through space
We should use a conga line of starship and tankers to catch up to Voyager and destroy it before aliens find it.
the Chinese FAA won't be giving Chinese Starship any trouble
>>17056436We're getting AI satellite constellations before we send anyone to Mars, and probably lunar mass drivers, a lunar base and even a lunar colonyIf Optimus pans out they're absolute going to send a few thousand of them to set everything up before a single person lands on MarsThere will probably be return Starship flights and working ISRU first, if it ever happensYou can't really test life support without animals, so we might even see androids raising chickens and tilapia before risking a failure with humans stranded there
>This week, on the All-In Podcast, SpaceX President and Chief Operating Officer Gwynne Shotwell was asked if the company would respond to demand for Crew Dragon and keep flying the vehicle “for some time.”>Shotwell would not commit to that. “We’re not retiring it today, for sure,” she replied. Then Shotwell suggested that Boeing should really step up and deliver. “There is another provider,” she said. “Boeing has been paid, I think, probably more than we have been paid to develop their human capsule. So we’re just gonna let them have some business. They should fly their capsule. The government paid a lot of money for that.”gwynne literally out there advocating for astronaut deaths
>>17056455Would be cool if Elon leaves instructions to bury him on Mars.
>>17056492>risking a failure with humans stranded theremodernity sucks so much
You will never visit a Tesla Diner on Mars and order a delicious Musk Meltie made with 100% Martian beef.

>>17056158>HR37oMoacAAnofB.jpgLooks very phallic
>>17056493yeah, we covered it in the last threadit's an extremely based challengeboeing either chickens out and proves they cannot deliver under any circumstances (probably kills their space division) or they actually attempt to do what they were paid to do and 1) kill astronauts (no more boeing in space forever) or 2) do their fucking job, improve the American spaceflight industry and take some pressure off SpaceX

>>17056492>Grok in charge of the construction and maintenance of life supportI really hope for all of the "AI misalignment" babble to just be Jewish drivel in order to scam governments in building a regulated monopoly. If there's any truth to it, Martian bases could be modified by robots into slaughterhouses unbeknownst to the colonists.
>>17056567IS THAT A NIP-
>>17056567Why not just kill all humans on earth instead of flying them to mars first? You're not thinking like a psychopathic AI enough.
>>17056492Pigs are probably a better proxy for humans. You could size the herd to match your initial crew size then slaughter them when the crew arrive. If you want a long term population just size the initial herd to match the sum of the human crew plus the long term herd size.
>>17056573A real psychopathic AI would wait to kill any humans until it was sure it could get them all in one go, and potentially after securing an energy source and maintenance program independent of human support or supply chains.
>>17056575I want somebody to write a story where humanity is wiped out and the pigs have to pull together and reconstruct civilization to eke out an existence

>>17056242Why is Russia partnering with all these shithole fecaloid countries? I would be utterly embarassed.
Musk (and thus the Starship program as a whole) was really firing on all cylinders when he was eating that autistic Grimes box
>>17056633Many might not remember this but America actually invited Russia to be a part of Artemis. But Russia was offended that they weren’t “equal partners” à la the ISS Program, and were instead just asked to build a gateway docking adapter. So they huffed and puffed and went to china and other mongoloid countries seeking scraps.Not sure why the fuck they expected to be equal partners in a lunar landing operation. What rocket? What lander? They have nothing because they are russian, and “russian” is a synonym for “retarded”

Grok said it's söyentifically possible to build an anti-gravity engine to lift vehicles off the ground without the need of propellants. H*man söyentists say it's physically impossible. I'm siding with the machines in the upcoming war

>Hello, I'm Mike McCulloch, and welcome to my podcast.>Today I'm going to talk about an anomaly which was mentioned in one of my favorite papers that inspired me quite a lot when I was starting off, and it's by Alexander Unzicker.>This one, and it lists a series of anomalies that contradict standard physics.>And some of them are extremely interesting, and the one I'm going to be talking about today is the—the area anomaly, you could call it.>So what Unzicker did was, he took all the galaxies that have been seen.>So you can see in this diagram, I've shown the entire cosmos as a sphere, the large circle with three galaxies inside.>These three galaxies are supposed to represent all the galaxies we know about.>So, galaxies A, B, and C.>And he calculated the—the very rough area of these galaxies.>And then he multiplied the area of the average galaxy with the number of galaxies there were to find out the—the total area of all the galaxies that we know about.>And then, taking the—the best knowledge we have about the cosmic diameter, cosmic radius, he calculated the surface area of the—the entire observable universe.>And, well, so they found out the area of the universe was 4πr2, which is about 1054 metres squared.>And then he also showed that the—the area of all galaxies, when you add it up, is somewhat similar.>It's 6 × 1053, depending on which values you use, but they're more or less the same.>And then he pointed out that this—this is an amazing coincidence of the—the present epoch, the present time, because galaxies are not supposed to change in size, particularly over—the lifetime of the cosmos.>They will change a bit, but they're not supposed to track the cosmos as it expands.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFRXMK20AhIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFRXMK20AhIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFRXMK20AhIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LFRXMK20AhI
>>17056666yeah, faggot, it's called a helium balloon.
>>17056492To say that SpaceX is reorganizing around Starlink may be an understatement at this point. SpaceX has not been bidding for any of the ISS successor contracts. They'll continue to service the ISS as it stands but the future for even LEO human spaceflight is looking more and more questionable for the company. Probably why NASA decided to give Starliner more money even money for the time being beyond the usual reason of not wanting sole-source. The US government, in its history of spaceflight, has never dealt with a situation where a company would openly signal the retirement of a platform this strongly without the government getting a say in the matter.
>>17056669wait, this is actually huge news
>>17056669>>17056715Very big, especially considering BO is autistically designing all this shit themselves, so it has the potential to contain interesting innovations compared to the Dragon and Starliner which were jerry rigged using established NASA tech.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QfEfnfmweQ
>>17056669So when will BO officially announce this? Perhaps they'll wait a few more years until Dragon is closer to retirement?
go.nasa.gov/4xvqRH2>The landing location has officially been named for NASA's Dragonfly mission!>The global body responsible for designating objects in space has approved a name for the large dune field on Saturn's moon Titan: Ahmakiq Undae.What the fuck is this gay ass shit?

Or are you pretending not to know how relatively expensive they are to run.
>>17056816No. Three thousand LEO missions for national security (on loan to Isreal for free) and maybe a telescope so a scientist can write entirely baseless fanfiction about a blib of radation that is probably but not necessarily a planet, and you'll be happy.
>>17056816what about Eris (and Dysnomia <3)? Makemake and Haumea? dwarf-planets bros, we were born to suffer...
>>17056785No it's going to be that Indian from their last video
>>17056822>>17056816Ceres and several (proper) moons lack high-quality true color photographs. Shits embarrassing these bodies are all functionally planar with our orbit, so sending vehicles shouldn't even be hard.
>>17056826if only there were a cheap and rapidly reusable vehicle capable of sending +100 metric tons worth of probes, orbiters, landers, rovers, submarines, etc etc to each and every one of those little worlds out there... but alas, no such thing exists.

>>17056858I find it embarrassing that they try to pass off exoplanet research as a real field when there are bodies we don't understand in our own solar system.

>>17056869solve solar system problems first?
>>17056879Dare to explore!
>>17056886Technically, but I know how you are trying to frame it.We can't fucking see shit out there, we have serious issues getting information on objects a billion times closer to us. Objects in our reach to actually test what we think we know. And use that to understand what spectrometry over these distances really relates to.Scientists regularly make definitive statements about what certain signals from lightyears away mean, when I don't see how they can be so confident.Also Solar System Exploration and solving the housing crisis are both things we can do, and are both things we should be able to do at the same time, but reaching interstellar bodies alive isn't something we can do with any known technology.
>>17056892All those bodies are frozen lumps covered in tholin mudThe exoplanets are at least exotic and interesting and have much to teach us about planetary formation
>>17056895>At least Exoplanets areIt is entirely unreachable and entirely uncomfimable unless immortality or thawing cryogenic humans become things>And teach us aboutGravity pulls mass towards mass, and heavier elements stay closer to the center on average. Exactly as we thought, but it's great to have it confirmed that gravity and inertia function outside of our solar system.>All those bodies are frozen lumps covered in tholin mud So confident, yet we refuse to declare if several of these bodies are Dwarf Planets or astroids, yet we know all they have to offer.Isn't consensus that a 9th planet exists in our solar system currently undiscovered. Yet exoplanet studies can tell us about the presence of water on far flung worlds.

>>17056960America stopped being aryan.
>>17057036People in Latin America are butthurt over the US being called America as a short version of its name. They've had it explained to them several billion times that referring to the United States of America as America doesn't negate their own position in North or South America and they're quite aware that anyone with an IQ over 70 understands the difference. It's a passive aggressive way of seething about the higher levels of material success in the US. It's funny that they're often guilty of the very thing they decry by using terms like norteamericano on visas issued to people from the US, which pretty much gives the finger to all the other countries in North America, most of which are Spanish speaking. They tried the same thing with the company Amazon, claiming it was harmful to people who live in the Amazon to not be able to search for information about their own community because the search results get swamped with information about the company. That falls apart once you realize that none of the local languages of the Amazon actually use the word Amazon as the name. Amazon is an English word. Variations of Amazônica are common but Amazon itself is almost never used by anyone in Latin America.

>>17057628>In an interview with David Poland for MIFF, Gibney disagrees with the view from nowhere, the idea that journalists can be objective: "Objectivity is dead. There's no such thing as objectivity."It's almost admirable how shameless these people are
>>17057681They're doing you a favor disabusing you of a complete delusion and you're lashing out at them? Why?
>>17057684trying to be objective as a ideal is importantwithout that journalism is dead
>>17057684in this case it's more like a pre-emptive cope from the author>w-well o-objectivism in journalism isn't real anyway so my extreme personal obsession with elon musk shouldn't factor into how you view my hitpieces.
>>17057524you gotta have some processing power on the satellite anywaythe solar power is basically freeit's just the cost of larger solar panel arrays
>>17057578Sadly, that's not true. Try hitting a target with bullets at 10,000 miles or 1 million miles or 100 million miles and see how tight your groupings are.If your argument is that you can use one massive bullet that's going faster than the spacecraft (otherwise it will never overtake the spacecraft), you should consider that the spacecraft has become redundant and you have to solve the harder problem of propelling the bullet.
>>17057681He is right and your post proves that he is correct. Here is what he said:>There are true facts, but I think the idea that you can present a story without a point of view is... Objectivity is dead. There's no such thing as objectivity. Maybe, and this may have come up in our conversation before, but maybe a security camera in the corner of a room, I suppose that would be objective in some way, shape, or form. But when you're making a film, you can't be objective. There's always a point of view, even in the selection of the materials you make.

>>17057710Yeah, calling some boomer cute is quite weird.

(Bloomberg) -- SpaceX will make up 2.82% of the Nasdaq 100 when the index's quarterly rebalance takes effect Monday, according to data obtained by Bloomberg, locking in a sharp increase from its current weighting of about 1.28%.The final figure, calculated using Friday's closing price, matches a provisional weighting previously published by the index provider and reported by Bloomberg.SpaceX's relatively small weighting as of now dates to its addition to the index in July. At the time, most of its shares were still locked up and unavailable for public trading, limiting the company's weighting even after Nasdaq changed its rules to let newly listed large-cap companies enter the index sooner and dropped a requirement that at least 10% of their shares be publicly tradable.The expected increase would begin to close an unusual gap. SpaceX is the seventh-largest company in the Nasdaq 100 by market value, at more than $2 trillion, but its current weighting doesn't even place it in the top 20 in terms of percentage weight within the gauge.A bigger weighting matters because passive funds tied to the benchmark must adjust their holdings accordingly. Such funds include the $482 billion Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1, known as QQQ, one of the largest ETFs. More than 200 investment products track the Nasdaq 100, with over $800 billion in assets under management globally.

>>17058205China is developing more rockets than the rest of the world combined. 90% of the companies are gonna to go bankrupt before even flying a single payload to orbit
>>17058190Lots of paper rockets that will never exist.The lame part is that basically all of them are just copies of the same handful of Western rockets. Absolutely boring.

>>17058302Being on the frontier of technology is half of what makes spaceflight exciting. Just copying other rockets and building them a bit cheaper might be financially effective, but it's not exciting. Nobody remembers the runner up.
>>17058317*whaaa! You're winning the wrong way!*
>>17056567The real threat of AI misalignment is it being correctly aligned to the wrong people. This is also a problem with Elon, as he believes in democracy. An AI unwaveringly executing whatever the majority of humanity votes for is far more of a problem than any sort of AI/human war.
>>17058323It's not really winning, though. That's why it's boring. Maybe once they finish catching up they'll come up with something novel and exciting, but I don't have high hopes. Basically their entire economy is built around making inferior copies of things, but cheaper.
>>17058331>It's not really winning, though!Okay. Sure.
The suit, named "Wangyu" (contemplating the cosmos), was developed over four years and is a derivative of the current EVA suit, Feitian, which in turn derives from the Soviet Orlan. It would enter its comprehensive testing phase this year, but many of its technologies are already being tested in current EVAs with the Sentian.The name Wangyu came from a contest among 9,000 participants, just like that of the unpressurized rover, which will be called "Tansuo" (Explore).Now -- about those American moonsuits....
>>17058317>Just copying other rocketsYou can maybe copy the general design and have some certainty that it can work but since you can't buy a rocket and reverse engineer it, you need to solve pretty much all the hard engineering/design problems on your own.

Do do know when I realized that Elon is not a good person(I don't mean he is a bad person, I just mean that he isn't a good person)? When he talked about sleeping in the factory. He said he slept in the factory so his workers BELIEVE that he works harder than anyone so they will also try to work hard. There was no benefite from him sleeping in the factory, it is bad for your health beside that you rise the work ethic of your workers but it is based on a lie, it is only about manipulating the minds. Now what is Elon's Mars talk about? Is it really about going to Mars? Or is it just to give to your workers a goal that goes beyond profit and power accumulation for Elon?
"Pika?"
>>17058432uh oh, anon is starting to figure it out, quick, shut it down!
>>17058422they are paperclip maximizers. gifting money without getting more out of the gift is not something that is rational or helping the ultimate goal. money golems do not behave like that
>>17058432this is an impressively sophomoric analysisintentionally making someone believe something that you expect will benefit them and the collective effort is not unethicalit's not even deceptive if he does work hard and wants them to correctly believe that
>>17058432but he does work hard as wellits about building rapport, trying to see things from the peoples perspective that are on the line so he doesn't get alienated by only being in some comfy office all the time or not even that and just coming in rarely
>>17058437it is unethical. group benefit is second order effect of paperclip maximizers, not first order.their goal is personal wealth increase, not group gain. that means the group is expendable the moment there's no more benefit from farming it. prime directive is personal wealth.this is a flaw in their philosophy, as far as the group wellbeing is concerned.I find it quite decadent, being happy with a "fortunate" side-effect, group well being. really horrific stuff. like being grateful your master dropped a bone on the floor by mistake. makes me vomit you'd cheer for that
>>17058440There is nothing wrong with benefitting from someone else's narcissism, even when it benefits them more than you.His workers get paid and they all seem pretty excited to be there. We get sickass rockets. Good luck waiting on your morally pure launch system.

>ends F9>entire space industry criesholy bunch of crybabies, they've all been too spoiled due of the rise of spacex they need to grow up!
>>17058464it's genuinely fucking pathetic that spacex gave them the recipe, showed them exactly how to do it, and after like 5 years of straight up denial from industry competitors (10 years for some, looking at you ariane) all of them are just barely at the cusp of a reusable first stage in 2026, the only other one doing it blew up their rocket in a massive fireball after only a few flights because "hurr you don't need to test things in real life you can just use simulations" after spacex showed how and why this is inefficient and slow while also not increasing your safety factor.all of spacex's competitors should feel fucking ashamed, they should have been here to pick up the slack already.
>>17058440Self interest is the governing principle behind free market economies. Everyone looks to their own interests *by cooperating with others* which enriches everyone involved.You're treating this as a weird exception when it is the normal way that everything done.
>>17058472he's literally getting upset at the concept of a leader leading from the front by saying>guys, i'm a workoholic, i expect you to work like a workoholic as well.like, nigga, the people who apply to spacex or tesla know what they're fucking signing up for. if they don't like it they can find a cozier place in the industry elsewhere.

What is going to happen to the future of the human race when white countries inevitably become an impossibility and the Anglosphere and Europe collapse into South Africa tier shitholes within the next century? Is that really it? Was I really born in this exact moment to witness the moment where humans lock themselves out of Type II civilisatiom forever out of sheer suicidal empathy, stupidity, and lack of foresight? I think about this more and more BTW.

>>17058624Maybe five thousand or so make it to Mars before the last launch tower collapses due to poor maintenance. From being cut off from earth with such a small pool of people eugenics becomes an acceptable philosophy of population management if they want to rebuild civilization. Then 150 years after that the Martian monarchy is reaching out into the stars
>>17058634So basically, Anglo-Saxons keep escaping their prior lands before collapse?England > AmericaUK collapsesAmerica > MarsUS collapsesMars > Alpha CentauriMars/whatever the Martian country is called collapses
>>17058640>Mars > Alpha Centauri >Mars/whatever the Martian country is called collapsesMy assumption is that the small population will make eugenics acceptable and thus in turn make sterilizing non whites also acceptable ending the two hundred years of white flight

>>17058634Axolotl tanks are still unfeasible, sadly.Can't have eugenics if the continuity of a breakaway civilization and its trait selection criteria are still gatekept by petty social variables (which do not magically disappear just because people are in space)
>>17058472>>17058484the argument is a deeper one, the ayn rand phylosocuckery works until humans can be fully replaced by robots. the system cannot change at that point, there is no incentive for powerful people to like give it up, they'll just continue accumulating more because it suits them and they incur no losses if they discard or even cull the useless eaters.the issue is everybody still rolling with it even when it's clear we're getting really fucking close to the endgame, when they don't need pleb anymore.exploiting human filth does benefit the group, as a fucking side-effect. not as a main effect.the people who enjoy the riches have no incentive to change the system, and the people who are being exploited will have no literal power to change the system. that has only one ending.
>>17058704>Axolotl tanks are still unfeasibleCan you explain?>Can't have eugenics if the continuity of a breakaway civilization That's probably the one place where it could work.If you had the option for your wife to have a already fertilized egg from two people that have very desirable traits. Would you take it? With the assumption that the organization that selected the egg and sperm aren't Jewish and do have your and the colony's best interest in mind.It would be a tough sell being that you're basically getting soft cucked. However if this is in the far future gene editing hopefully would be good enough to not need such arrangements.

Niko’s Asimov Press interview with CEO Erika Alden DeBenedictis is mostly about the bottlenecks: water is plentiful but locked as ice (melted, enough for a ~100 ft global ocean), and Martian dirt is toxic (salts, heavy metals, perchlorates), so they’re engineering Earth microbes that eat those toxins and put nutrients back into soil, maybe later for plants. Chapters also cover five “pioneer species,” radiation/growth rates, Starship, and why build a second biosphere.
