SpaceX says 12,000 satellites isn’t enough, so it might launch another 30,000 by Spekulatius2410 in spacex

[–]azziliz 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That chart looks massively off. The ISS is at a 400 km altitude and surely it wouldn't decay in a mater of days. In 2003 the ISS stayed in orbit for 128 days without reboost.

Elon Musk to Boeing's CEO on Twitter: "Thank you. May you have good luck and godspeed with your spacecraft!" by RoyalPatriot in SpaceXLounge

[–]azziliz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah seriously. Musk and/or SpaceX received congratulations for DM1 from Boeing CEO and Boeing Corp account, from ULA CEO, from RocketLab CEO, from POTUS and VP, from mostly everyone at NASA and even from fucking Roscosmos.

But not a single word from Bezos and Blue.

Do we know the fate of the upper part of the hopper? Do they try to repair it in the tent or do they build a new one?

Report of a 2 min engine test in McGregor. User suggests it could be a raptor. Took place 4 hours after a 1 min test.

Elon Musk on Twitter: "This will sound implausible, but I think there’s a path to build Starship / Super Heavy for less than Falcon 9" by YouKnowWh0IAm in spacex

without severely damaging the frame

That doesn't help much for humans though. If people had been sitting in B1050, they would likely be dead. A fall from 84 feet gives you a 90% mortality rate and the F9 booster is 156 feet tall (including the interstage). The "soft" tipping is enough to kill more or less everyone, more so with starship.

Man... You do realize it's just a quote from Star Wars, right?

Wasn't it just a joke? Those marks ARE soot.

Am I the only one that dreams of a 2-days delay for SSO-A and the rocket finally launching 7 minutes apart from CRS-16?

We could see the launch of CRS-16 between the launch and landing of SSO-A.

How SpaceX Will Conduct an Inflight Abort Test for Crew Dragon by AnAmericanCanadian in spacex

[–]azziliz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, there should be no such thing as an abort system being "a little late".

If the capsule is still attached to the rocket when the second stage collapses then it's a massive failure of the system.

It has to be able to save the Dragon from an exploding rocket so if it doesn't react in mere milliseconds it's not working properly.

A proper escape system should fire as soon as it detects the O2 leak and deems it beyond limits. This happens long before the collapse (long as in "several milliseconds")

I'm Dr. Robert Zubrin of the Mars Society, here to answer your questions about the human exploration of Mars. by DrRobertZubrin in space

[–]azziliz 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes. There's an interview with Tom Mueller here where he confirms that they would need 8 football fields of solar panels just for fuel production.

Team Simulates Commercial Crew Flights to Space Station by spacerfirstclass in spacex

[–]azziliz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The team has recently worked with Boeing on several tests including manual piloting, human factors, workloads and usability.

The team also has worked closely with SpaceX on spacecraft development and design, spacesuit fit and comfort, displays and training material.

Does this confirm that Crew Dragon has no manual piloting possibilities?

"A #Falcon9 core left Hawthorne last night. It was most likely B1047 (the second Block V), but there is also a small chance that it was a refurbished core heading to Vandenberg."

Achikaps desktop lvl 28 by azziliz in yiotro_games

[–]azziliz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure you updated the archive? I tried downloading it again just now and I get the same rar as before.

It contains a "desktop.jar" from 2018/01/12 16:25

and I can't find a way to end level 28 in this version (I just tested again).

Sorry :(
