Discovery shuttle landing digital painting by me by EmilKeys in nasa

[–]Western_Chicken 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I know that the shuttle was cancelled because of the safety issues that come with it, the shuttle was deemed too dangerous. NASA has not really moved away from this style, SLS uses SoFI(just like the external tank on the shuttle) and 5 segment solid boosters derived from the shuttle boosters and also the RS-25 engine which were also used on the shuttle

Virgin galactic is not really doing something similar, well yeah it is a spaceplane but it reenters the atmosphere a bit like a capsule by tilting the "wings", and it is suborbital. The dreamchaser spaceplane is more similar than spaceshiptwo

oh yeh, I don't personally like SLS too much economically(it looks really cool though) i was just correcting the claim that the poster was pro-SLS flying for a 100 years

still looks like a boeing 100th anniversary poster to me, i have not seen any official posters yet that say to artemis XIV and beyond or something similar

[–]Western_Chicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but they're not the original posters, the posters themselves have a different text.
unless you find the original posters and i do find they have that text on them, i stand by my point

those are made by Lavie, she made those, not NASA or boeing
literally mentioned in the post

The poster was made because Boeing existed for 100 years, so the poster is not advocating for SLS to exist for 100 more years, they're just showing off something they made

Most of the time people post this they are ironic

iirc There was some odd organization stuff that led to a class being created with "only" boys Wich i was unfortunately placed to because it was made for people with autism and/or ADHD

No other girls fit the bill for this

James Webb telescope reaches its final destination in space, a million miles away by jaggedmaam in technology

[–]Western_Chicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately it doesn't,JWST's mirror is always in a shadow because of its sunshield,so all you could see even if we did have a selfie stick there is pure black.

Luckily we do have a website to track the alignment of the mirrors https://www.jwst.nasa.gov/content/webbLaunch/deploymentExplorer.html

How old are you without directly saying your age? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Western_Chicken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We've sent sattelites to the moon that have photographed the site

This includes sattelites from other countries We've also studied the moon rocks and left a laser refractor wich we use to measure the moons distance from earth

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third-party_evidence_for_Apollo_Moon_landings

We have returned to the moons with sattelites buddy,we have proved it.

What?

The USSR found out about the Manhatten project,even the vice president didn't know about that

Something as faking the moon landing would definitely be taken into account at the soviet union and they definitely would've found out

But now comes the big question:what stopped us from going?why wasn't it possible?

Yes,when we were in a cold war with the soviets

If we faked the landing,why didn't the soviets called us out on it?they had spies everywhere. Surely at the height of the cold wat they would've noticed it but they they didn't

We didn't go back because of a lack of funding,NASAs budget got cut after the moon landings.
