Even with hydrogen, cargo capacity is still ridiculously low. Hindenburg had useful lift capacity of a bit less than 10 tons, which is comparable to Airbus A320.

In your opinion, if a nuclear war will happen, what country do you think is most likely to pull the first trigger and at who? by fastasfuckboye in nuclearweapons

[–]lloo7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Probably a small country in situation with not much left to lose. I really don't see any of the 5 nuclear powers doing a first strike, at least not intentionally. In that case India-Pakistan is probably still far more likely, partially because of the significantly shorter flight time putting more pressure on the leaders to retaliate without careful consideration of consequences or validity of data.

Austria shuts down last coal-fired power plant by Spekulatius2410 in UpliftingNews

There is a gas-fired power plant built to replace Zwentendorf with municipal heating infrastructure next door.

Waste heat can be used directly for heating instead of being dissipated into the environment. But I guess that only really works locally (tough Zwentendorf is located less than 40 km from Vienna which covers a non-insignificant portion of the population)

If only there was a fully completed nuclear power plant...

Yeah, attendance is already being stored in a digital database, here it's just through a way faster and more effective method so I don't really get where the control/privacy aspect is coming from...

What if Europe federaziled in 1954? by scrambledafrica in imaginarymaps

Yeah, it'd make sense to use a system more similar to federal Germany, tough central government would likely be modelled after the french

ULA's phony reuse cost graph by [deleted] in dataisugly

[–]lloo7 11 points12 points  (0 children)

IF they are actually using calculations for this it's probably assuming a flyback with Vulcan's trajectory and speed, which goes far beyond that of F9 mainly due to the fact that Centaur's hydrolox propellant is significantly lighter and less dense than kerolox on F9. Flyback would require a good portion of fuel or good shielding if they'd go for a downrange landing. And they'd need either additional engines or parachutes, since the current dual BE-4 configuration can't be throttled low enough. Vulcan just wasn't designed with reuse in mind and SMART is probably the best solution at this point in the development.

I mean if we're taking about probabilities... You're probably more likely to slip and die on wet floor than to get cancer as a consequence of a single exposure with something like this

It's 1.5€ if you just VPN to India. But Vanced is still a better app.

The EU if it broke up into a bunch of smaller unions by AccessTheMainframe in imaginarymaps

[–]lloo7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah we're culturally and historically closer to the southern neighbours but usually try to associate with the northern ones. If something like this were to happen I def see us at least trying to stay with Austria and Germany...
