A Delta IV Heavy pad starting to get demolished as soon as Thursday
Anonymous

>Emre Kelly, a Space Force spokesperson, deferred questions on the schedule for the demolition to SpaceX, which is overseeing the work. But he said the Delta IV's mobile gantry, fixed umbilical tower, and both lightning towers will come down. Unlike other large-scale demolitions at Cape Canaveral, SpaceX and the Space Force don't plan to publicize the event ahead of time.

in other news, the relationship between Trump and Musk seems to be somewhat fine
probably won't be going back to the way it was, but it won't be some existential problem to SpaceX

Send SLS Block 1B to Venus, as the Soviets last space accomplishment had to do with Venus before their collapse. I think it's only fair that America should do something new with Venus as our last hurah before collapse.
Were the Venera probes crushed, or did the electronics just melt? Could we take the shell of a Venera probe back America?

I don't believe for one second that moon mining is the way to get helium 3. If it's such a commodity can't you just use an energy negative fusion reactor to make it? $80,000 a gram is high, and if demand goes up eventually it becomes advantageous to build a machine for it. I don't know if you want your lunar economy based on a commodity that can be acquired cheaper elsewhere. I'm skeptical

What am I thinking SLS 1B won't have the DeltaV to put a three man balloon lander, with a giant crane that lowers a man a pressure suit with a heat and presure resistant flag to the surface, before returning him and the Venera probe he stole. The SLS 2 would cost 18 billion dollars per launch and is an abomination that shouldn't happen.

It's only really been an issue because the only way we currently know to make H3 is through Tritium decay, which is heavily tied to the nuclear industry and nuclear weapons development, the START treaty was the beginning of the global H3 shortage. Funnily enough it might be better to set up facilities on the moon for nuclear weapons disposal to collect H3 than trawling the lunar regolith

Disengaging completely from the US and its insanity is a good thing and not just for euro spaceflight. The process should have started back in 2016 and we might have been a bit better prepared for the ongoing mongol invasion but I guess such is the price of efficient bureaucracy.

Nuclear reactor attached to a huge water pump surronded by balloon that force it to flow upwards. The heated water from the reactor is put into the pumps which forms a jet of hot water which melts away the upper crust of Enceladus/Europa.

Literally just collapse the Venusian atmosphere into a snowball by blocking all sunlight and then reheat it back up so it stabilizes at 3 earth atmospheres of pressure with a high albedo from the global winter to stop it from greenhousing again COME ON JUST TRY IT ALREADY IT'LL ONLY TAKE A FEW CENTURIES IF IT WORKS

Simple life like humans. Europa has (induced) geology, and the pressence of liquid water means mineral sorting. Life also sorts minerals.
Surface Geothermal and Tidal generators wired up to a huge water pump surrounded by balloon that forces it to float upwards. The heated water from the electric heater is put into the pumps, which forms a jet of hot water that melts away the upper crust of Europa.

He got into trouble with the Democrats for some reason I donโ€™t understand โ€” maybe too much instructional money was lost in the EV market crash? But the fact is, the role of government today is to spend money, not to cut it, so thereโ€™s no chance Elon would have lost the contracts from NASA, DoD and Starlink. SpaceX is Americaโ€™s premier space company and no one comes even remotely close, including the rest of the world. SpaceX has the ONLY working crewed vehicle in the US, and is much better than the only other working one on the planet (Soyuz). Starlink has by far the most satellites AND the very best orbital band for them and no one else will ever be competitive with it. The idea that the government which is only allowed to spend more money is going to transform itself specifically to take money away from SpaceX because fuck Musk is just a fantasy.

Democrats became the internationalists after Trump took over the Republicans, and the CIA was pressuring social media to extralegally bypass the first amendment. When Elon bought twitter for free speech he fucked up something that represented a monumental amount of effort and money in that a single free speech platform makes all the controlled ones useless. It doesn't matter how good he is for strategic domestic industries, because it was the internationalists he pissed off and they don't care about America outside of the power it allows them to wield. The fact that they're using the Democrats as the attack vector is coincidence and the side brained social issues and whatnot are an incidental distraction.
I thought Elon was aware of this went he went for USAID's jugular, as you can trace a straight path from them to the Brazilian judge that froze Starlink's assets to pressure Twitter to delete anti-gov posts, but now I'm not so sure anything he does is that tactical.
Spaceflight also. No wait, I mentioned Starlink already. Yeah spaceflight

The twitter purchase wasn't the initial issue, the Biden admin was stalling Starship paperwork and snubbing Tesla at every possible opportunity before that happened.
It's because he started stepping out of line on the covid narrative and was pretty far outside of it by the time the Biden admin came into power.

China is allowed to execute corrupt officials. China values education and discourages hedonism. China is comparatively homogeneous population wise so it enjoys much less ethnic conflict. The average Chinese person is more intelligent than the average American. And best of all they have 1.4 billion people so much greater industrial capabilities.

The US enjoyed being the dominant power of the world because post world war 2 they were the only major nation not fucked by the war demographically and economically, they had the largest European population of any nation on earth and they had effectively turned half the world into vassals they could sell stuff too without competition and they were completely untouchable militarily. But as time passed the US found it cheaper to outsource its industry to places like China. Gradually itโ€™s politics, industry, education and judicial system were captured by less than noble elements and itโ€™s population have been rapidly replaced by monkeys. So it comes as no surprise that China has quickly surpassed the US in almost every way and nothing about the US or China shows these trends to be changing in the short to medium term.

Iโ€™m sure Patel and the current admin are watching multiple people like this as we speak. Itโ€™s what you do when youโ€™re a spook and you have basically an unlimited budget. Information is king.

I don't know how you intend to maintain national security if we have to let people do anything they want because "taking action against people who politcallly disagree with us is a slippery slope". All rocket manufacturers should be under 24/7 surveillance.

The diminishing comes from reaching 50% peak market imo. In any market, if you've captured ~50%, then the rest of the 50% stalls. In order to capture rest of the market, you need to speed up the adoption by lowering the prices. Thats why reducing hardware prices is essential. Starlink dishes are ~$300 right now. But thats bit of an upfront cost. Imagine if its $150 hardware cost or $100. Its an insta buy. There's a $0 hardware cost but with 12 month commitment. Thats good for longterm investment, but many might want for emergencies. Imagine $100 Starlink for cars that you pay $10/m for 10GB data plan. Thats cheaper than most phone plans. There are ~380 million cell phone numbers in US with avg pay of ~$30-60 for 1-10GB/m bandwidth. $100 per dish is extremely important as well as the $10/m bandwidth. Combine with a low power usage of dish, it would make Starlink a power house

>Shijian-21, likely designed with such tests in mind, makes a good target for Chinaโ€™s first on-orbit refueling test in GEO. The mission appears set on demonstrating capabilities for maintaining and prolonging the operational lifespan of satellites already in orbit. Such capabilities can reduce costs and improve sustainability in space operations, while also reducing debris.

It's easy if you just want to deorbit and you don't care were beyond being in an ocean, but to actually target a corridor may require incination changes or other maneuvers that are relatively expensive

>Could you see it with the naked eye?
If it hit the shadowed part of the moon facing us you'd see a flash, if the sunlit part probably not. If you were looking away from the moon it wouldn't catch your eye. 8 megatons is nothing at that range.

From how far away would you be able to tell that Earth is inhabitanted by intelligent life?
Nowhere but Luna with your eyes, obviously. With an early telescope, it should be pretty from Mars to see the lights, but is there any chance our lights could be interpreted as natural like how Castillo has bright spots?
When you get to Saturn or at least Uranus, you probably wouldn't be able to see the Earth at all with conventional telescopes considering how long it took us to discover Neptune and Naptune should have a far higher angular size than us? From Neptune and beyond would you even be able to tell with a space telescope? Since pictures of the outer dwarf planets don't have any detail, they just look like really bright stars. With modern equipment we would be able to notice the ISS, but how would we tell it is artificial and not just some small captured space debris?

Depends on sensors. Whatever we can do at the farthest is how far we others with same level of tech can detect us. Intelligent life is hard to quantify. JWST can detect a planet's atmospheric make up within a hundred of so lightyears. So if another planet is trying to detect us, they would do so within light year.

Assuning you know where to look with astrononical precision, and you are within 100 light years, you could probably pick up our radio with a powerful enough receiver (not realistic, but possible in principle). If you saw Earth transiting in front of our sun, you could do spectroscopy on the atmosphere and see the disequilibrium in oxygen and other gases (not definitive but a strong oddity) and if you could resolve it in infrared you would see the red edge caused by plant life.

If you are within this solar system, you would have to basically be blind not to see us if you have our level of technology.

The "scary" thing is, if Starlink continues to generate tons of cash for SpaceX, eventually going into $50+B/y with 20-30M customers, imagine the amount of capital they can put into Starship for Mars base building. Atleast 20-30% might be going into Mars to rapid scaling of infrastructure, by that time, I bet SpaceX would be buying Optimus in bulk from Tesla and shipping them to Mars for huge scaling projects

Load carrying can be done with robot vehicles. Humanoids are there for initial manpower and later on as software gets better, more autonomous things like maintenance/cleanup/etc that is harder for humans to do. Even if you discount that AI, you can still take control of the robot and do remote control of the robot either by humans inside shelter controlling or from Earth by issuing commands

some people are already smarter, faster or stronger than others
but one smart or strong person can only do the work of so many dumb or weak people
the important differences are that AIs *might* be significantly smarter than all people, faster, cheaper and more widely available
it's not just that they could perform better, but if they're also more available and cheaper they could potentially replace humans completely in knowledge work
it's strongly dependent on cost and availability, though
in one scenario AGIs could be super intelligent, but if they're also self interested they could demand payment for services rendered and end up not being widely employed simply because they're expensive

If a human with 10000000% smarter than me exists and can do work 24/7. I would absolutely give all power of the government to that person. Smarter person leads to more efficient economy, society, etc that benefits 10000000x more people. We started from common primates that can only support few dozens at large tribe to billion+ society now. All with just 4% difference of genetics over the million years.

AGI with self interest also has other interest. Destructive self interest is just a sign of low IQ that cannot think far ahead. Mutually beneficial self interest means everyone prospers

not far. radio waves are already kind of a cope. in theory you could use your star systems sun as a magnifying glass with probes about 500 AU from it observing alien exoplanets and even then the "best" you get is a barely distinguishable smudge of the object

final nail in the coffin is space time itself. not only distance but time itself. human civilization is roughly 10 000 years old and for humans that is an eternity. in space time terms that is barely 100 milliseconds. even if civilization spreads to the solar system if it fails to spread out of the system it definitely wont be around in another 10 000 years into the future (10 2025 AD)

>In a Bloomberg interview last month, Wood reiterated her forecast for bitcoin to hit $1mn by 2030. โ€œSometimes you need to battle test, you need to go through crises...to see the survivors,โ€ she said.

no, just an analyst focused on space companies
most of the valuation in this case is coming from starlink anyway, so not really *that* extremely speculative
the reason why they mention mars as adding some value at all I would guess is just for extra attention and also seems like he is just interested in mars in general
you know there are other companies/analysts that try to analyze SpaceX such as Quilty Space and the often posted chart with payload to space by different providers by BryceTech
they write analysis and probably also consult for investors and so on

If you really want to argue about who or who isnโ€™t corrupt then you can just check the AIPAC โ€œdonationsโ€ website which is proudly and publicly available and find out that the overwhelming majority of high level US politicians including multiple presidents like the current and previous one have all accepted money from them and their views towards that organisations nexus in the Middle East clearly show the money has an effect on their policies. China obviously does not tolerate that and given how incredibly the growth and development of China has been over just the past 20 years implies obvious organisational competence and good money management. If the US had similar views on corruption then they probably wouldnโ€™t be so badly in decline.

Spacex stands above the competitors of the world in spite of the US not because of it.

Optimus can't even stock shelves at Walmart (point to point transportation and moving identical objects from one storage to another). Even then, can they cut open the boxes with a box cutter and contend with the cardboard flaps? This is what software people don't understand about operating in the real world.
Robots work great in a factory setting where they do the same thing constantly. If you want to increase the automation in something like construction, you would develop a modular panelized system that reduces the pieces to be touched by a human on site.
None of these niggas itt have an actual conception of how anything works outside of software.

Money is currently being directed towards another venture right now in Ukraine and until that one is concluded you shouldnโ€™t expect any serious developments in their space flight sector. Also a lot of their plans have been made either obsolete or shown to be pointless vanity projects even if they did construct them. A ISS like space station is a great example as it offers them zero practical value and would only exist as a money sink so I hope they donโ€™t seriously pursue that idea. Large throwaway heavy lift vehicles are being brought into question with starship gradually achieving functionality. Luner probes or even any probes are also pointless at this point in human knowledge.

If the new guy in charge of Roscosmos has any sense then he will scrap all that shit and focus their resources on making a Falcon 9 clone to replace the Soyuz and gradually work towards creating a reusable heavy lift vehicle like starship. If they ever managed that then the inner solar system would be open to them and colonies on the moon and Mars would be possible. These bullshit Soviet boomer prestige projects are holding everything back.

It's important to challenge ideas that dismiss entire continents or peoples. Africa has a rich and diverse history of civilizations, innovations, and cultural contributions that shaped the world. Suggesting otherwise isn't just incorrect--it plays into harmful and outdated stereotypes.

I donโ€™t see why not. Russia is obviously much more capable even now than Europe or Japan when it comes to rocketry, they have a very large amount of stem graduates (especially engineers) so itโ€™s not like they donโ€™t have the potential and seeing a competitor like the US gain greater access to space may spur them to follow. Falcon 9 has shown clear as day how effective a reusable rocket is so nobody can argue against it and much of the technical information to do it is public. I understand Soyuz probably has a large amount of jobs and industries tied to it so cutting that off would be painful for many communities, but it needs to be done.

They have everything they need to do all this. The only thing holding them back from what I can tell is their equivalent of old space soviet boomer mentality who just think space is for showing off some stupid project that accomplishes nothing. Now that much of those sorts of characters are either being fired and replaced or just dying off with Roscosmos itself getting somebody that isnโ€™t an ancient Soviet official for once, maybe we will see some actual development for once.

The stationary lander is equipped with a radioisotope heater unit (RHU). During the 14-day lunar nights, the lander goes into 'sleep mode' and is usually turned on for 1-2 hours during lunar days. It transmitted tonight on X-Band from 00:01 UTC โ€“ 01:08 UTC.

I think this is the first time I've seen anyone explain it so succinctly that it seriously makes me question what the fuck science channels are doing trying to explain how a black hole works or what a black hole essentially is.

As I've grown older and played around with simulators and formulas at its most basic level it is indeed just a step up from other types of compacted matter until it reaches said escape velocity.
>>16695292
>Is every last atom that falls in emitted back out again as hawking radiation over a long enough span of time?
As far as current models and observations exist, that pretty much looks to be the case. Which makes me wonder where the fuck did the idea for a singularity in terms of thinking about it in practical terms as opposed to abstract mathematical concepts ever get such serious acceptance when in reality it could literally be just a compact remnant with a stupidly high escape velocity slowly evaporating just like anything else in the universe that takes on the form of unstable matter supposedly would.
>then what the fuck are black holes even for
Assuming it is all the product of natural processes, it really is a good question because when you start thinking about it this way it just feels like you might as well class all black holes as "useless evaporators" to quote a certain Russian scientist.
>We should figure out how to destroy a black hole
I reached this conclusion as well, they contain an incalculable amount of energy that could be released besides just passively harvested with magic future tech we don't have.

This is popsoi 101 anon. Itโ€™s dependent on mass AND density. Thatโ€™s like asking why the known universe has all the mass of, well, the known universe. Yet itโ€™s transparent, why? Because that mass is spread way the hell out. Even something as dense as a neutron star is still letting photons out. You have to compress that mass until it is DENSE enough to stop light (density equals mass over volume). So youโ€™d have to take all that mass of the Sun and compress it down to something the size of an ant or whatever

No. Hawking radiation is kind of like thermal radiation. It isn't the matter which falls in.

>>16695296

Because strong gravity is described by General Relativity, and GR says that once an object has collapsed inside it's event horizon it will form a singularity. You might imagine that black holes could be some degenerate object just below the event horizon, but it has been proven that no finite source of pressure can withstand collapse even just above the event horizon. Inside not only can nothing escape, but nothing can stay at a fixed distance from the center, everything has to keep moving inwards.
GR says that black holes have singularities. Perhaps a theory of quantum gravity may change that, but for now that's just speculation.

It wasn't the main thrust of the paper, just an aside. The main objective was to point out that a certain claim of Penrose concerning an inevitable singularity does not appear to be correctly proven

So then what happens happens to the matter if it the black hole must then supposedly then all evaporate at some point, and if that process is proportional to the mass of the black hole? That all ends up becoming thermal energy somehow? What even is a singularity then other than some mathematical vertex point in space that somehow has mass assigned to it? Fuck, this is such a mindfuck.

And equally there is no known solution under which it could happen. He does not demonstrate it is actually feasible even in theory, it's just an idea. He is literally just attacking some of the methods used in other peoples work, he doesn't further the idea that non singular black holes are possible, much less physical.

Yeah I think as it runs out of hydrogen, the core shrinks and it burns through the remaining hydrogen faster. The atmosphere puffs up a bit without going full red giant which would give it abnormally high radius and luminosity.

in 500 MILLION years nothing will be left of humanity dumb ass. Evolution itself will see to that. You know what was the ancestor of ALL mammals, including the human monkey you belong to, 65 million years ago? It was a small rodent about the size of a rat. that flourished when a big rock fell out of the sky and killed all the dinosaurs

your post illustrates perfectly how hilariously awful the human apes perception of time is

If we were using the biological definition of humans and we accept humanity evolved, then it doesn't matter how far we spread things that are biologically homo sapian spaian will disappear anyway.
Anyway how do you know we were using a biological definition and not an evolutionary definition, especially when the evolutionary definition of human fits better?
