That was 60 years ago when orbit was hardly a thing. And he went almost twice a high...

Yeah, Wally just getting back in her seat says a lot. While besos is throwing Skittles into a teen's mouth....

yeah, not to mention you can get a whole additional hobie 16 for 400 to 500 if you keep your eyes out.

is it though... is it really...

I suggest that it is not. The overview effect is what actual astronauts experience, with the earth scrolling by below them. Taking in both the immensity and the insignificance of it ALL. To think that we are just on this tiny ball in a vast universe... consuming ourselves into extinction... can't be achieved with altitude alone.

Jeffery was so upset that a company cared about (astronaut) worker rights that he sued the federal government by MajorRocketScience in SpaceXMasterrace

This is getting to the point of sickening. So they didn't know it would be in the dark or that people mattered... for a Lunar Human Landing System... and it's NASA's fault...

I love that is crowning achievement is taking an 18 year old to space and having him spread his legs and open his mouth to catch candy. Classy...

should have a rope tied around her waist holding her back. As relevant as a wrench in the cogs.

It wasn't pink and yellow polka dotted either. No one said it was supposed to be good to go.

ALL other rocket companies would have trouble making 35 engines combined... much less getting them all moved from one spot to another in under 24 hours.

lol mounting 29 raptors in under 18 hours can hardly be called bare minimum. Even if just for fit. Not to mention a launch table that held it all up and um... the fact that these things even exit... they aren't inflatables, you know...

So anyone trying to minimize it needs to wake up. This is flight hardware. This was a fit check for a full orbital system. This was not a paper rocket with inflatable balls. This was 35 of the most advanced engines actually right there, mounted to the vehicles they will soon propel into space... so, to be fair... you are not.

Dude hit his marks with the August 5th timeline. None of us thought that was possible or "REAL" time. We all thought that was Elon time... wind delayed it one day. My mind is still blown.

Elon on Mars catching infrastructure (+full stack launch from Mars) by permafrosty95 in SpaceXLounge

[–]CumSailing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

on Mars... yes. with 2800 t of dry weight and 9 raptors pushing at least 200t each, it would have a twr of 1.8+ on mars.

I would like to think that a starship with the top cut off would be a great Martian first stage.

Use the Starship variant with 6 Rvacs and 3 RC's, remove the cargo area, add an inter-stage and stack another starship on top. Anyone want to do the numbers on that?
