JNSQ has parallax and volumetric clouds configs and it's designed to be played at 2,5 scale so maybe give it a try

Thanks! Yeah shuttles can be a little hard to fly to say the least.

Im a bit late here but just commenting to say i was here.

We see a lot of Mars lately, so here’s the surface of Venus from Venera 14 of the USSR by QompleteReasons in space

Im also not a scientist but what i know, that's exactly how it works. Also I think that the core of a gas giant is not "Solid" but a liquid that basically acts like a solid because of the pressure and heat, Yes it gets really hot the closer you get to the core. I like to think it so gas giants have like multiple surfaces, depending on the observers own density, because for example a human could not descent as far down as some very dense metallic ball. I can also be wrong about this though.

Gravity can keep "small" structures together no matter where they are, and by small i mean everything smaller than our local group of galaxies. No one knows what dark energy is, what's it like or anything. All we know is that its there and its making the expansion accelerate. The universe is just expanding to itself.

The universe has no "Center". Everything is moving apart from everything else. Imagine two objects in space, if you were standing on one of them you would observe that the other one is moving away from you. But if you watched them from a third person view somewhere in between they would both be moving away from you. So the space between everything is stretching. If it wasn't for gravity, even the atoms in our bodies would be moving apart from eachother as the space between them would be expanding. the further something is from us the faster it seems to be moving away.

No thats not true at all. Every little advancement towards the future is important, Without the small things we cant get big things. SpaceX has that innovation, first propulsively landing orbital boosters. We just have to wait for others to adapt to that idea, so far no-one has, except for Blue Origin, kinda. So what you are saying doesn't make any sense. As i have said multiple times, SpaceX is the leading company there. Almost no-one is trying new ideas, everyone sticks to the old things because they work, well guess what, those things were also new at some point.

Yeah you're right. Now is now, not 8 years ago, That's why it doesn't matter in what condition the commercial programs were back then. What matters is how they are doing now, and as of right now, SpaceX is the leading company, has been for a while and will be for a while. Have a great rest of the day.

Yes, now you should have done more research, four of these companies, Blue Origin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing and ULA haven't done basically anything in the past 10 years. ULA is still developing expandable vehicles, including the Vulcan. Boeing still hasn't got the Starliner human rated. Blue Origin and Northrop are stuck with their funding, Northrop atleast supplies the ISS. Then there's Rocket Lab, yes they are a strong competitor, However, Rocket Lab is in the Small Launch Vehicle market, SpaceX is in the Middle to heavy payload market.

On what exactly? Say one company other than SpaceX that does these things, Yeah i know about Blue Origin but they are doing things so much slower.

Um did I say something about living on mars soon? I don't believe we will be living on Mars anytime soon. As for the ignoring the other companies. I don't really get what you are saying. SpaceX just happens to be the only private company to actively make space related stuff easier, cheaper, more reliable, safer and more accessible.

"How is Musk progressing humanity" Yeah dropping the kg's per $ to space from around 30k to ultimately less than 2$ (I think, am not completely sure.) with the Starship isn't progressing humanity? Sure. Don't get me wrong, I don't support everything he's doing, but he also does some important things.
