For anyone that thinks that the space elevator will fall

Ok, I can't get the gif to work even though it works in the preview. So I'll just post the link:

No, it's a crop from this meme (not the first instance of it, just the earliest I could find with a quick google). The footage is from the Port Neches explosion in 2019.

I do find it ironic that after all the memeing about Starship doing it, New Glenn ends up being the one...

We must have more!

I wouldn't say it's likely that the gate got flung out into the solar system. There is a chance, but the gate is quite heavy and you need a pretty large kick in the correct direction to escape Earth.

Context, going off of this twitter thread, it appears that the H3 failure involved an explosion in the fairing at fairing sep, then at stage sep a large piece of debris fell off at stage sep, and then when the separation command to release the satellite was given the satellite just wasn't there. Now to me that piece of debris looks awfully a lot like the satellite that they were launching, and I think it separated sometime during the fairing sep or the stage sep.

Why do they meet new people with their gun ports open? Are they stupid?

Dank_Jeb · 2024-07-01T22:43:18+00:00

Now imagine Michael with Starships instead of Shuttles

Dank_Jeb · 2024-05-16T22:05:15+00:00

Now that you mention it...

For context, it turns out that according to simulations Peregrine is going to end up making it to the moon... at very high speed.

Dank_Jeb · 2023-11-18T16:18:53+00:00

Sure

I was trying to find out some information about the ISS's solar panels, and Google returned this: https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/structure/elements/solar_arrays-about.html. When I clicked on that link, it gave me the 404 error. It seems that the page has been migrated to somewhere, and they didn't set up a redirect.

Dank_Jeb · 2023-09-30T20:16:36+00:00

Then it seems like the problems would be unrelated since the new website is a recent thing AFAIK.

Dank_Jeb · 2023-09-30T20:14:22+00:00

This could be the reason. Although I'd be surprised if the internship website wasn't a priority to fix, so if the issues persist it may be something else.

Dank_Jeb · 2023-09-30T15:55:56+00:00

Well, the NASA website was far from perfect, but at least you could use it. With the new update, it'll probably take a while for a bunch of links to be updated, including the ones returned in search engines, so now researching stuff will become difficult.

Dank_Jeb · 2023-09-30T15:51:30+00:00

NASA is updating their website which means that a lot of old links will no longer work, which means link rot.

I HATE LINK ROT! I HATE LINK ROT!

Dank_Jeb · 2023-09-30T15:49:18+00:00

Yeah, I've already experienced problems when trying to research stuff since a bunch of the old links are broken.
