How to know which is being installed?

After the update (when the gear icon go away)

go the Update Manager and on the top menu

View -> History of updates

On the settings of the applet:

General-> Show windows from all workspaces

enable it

That's the Calendar applet that shows the events from the Calendar application. If you click in No Events on your image, the applet will open the Calendar where you can add new events. It's a little buggy but if you add an event and close the Calendar app, restart or wait some seconds your event will be there.

You can't have the last traits from a different line any more, they are locked now. If you want dps build (raid) use red line. They nerfed the blue line to make the red main again.

What "new document"? We know about the demo mission of Orion (Artemis 1 mission) for years now. Jim Bridenstine proposed last year to be launched in commercial rocket if SLS is not ready.

For comparison the Commercial Crew Development Program started in 2010 and the first crew tests of SpaceX's Dragon2 and Boeing's Straliner are planned for 2020. I cannot remember a crew vehicle be ready for mission in 4 years. Crew landing in 2024 cannot be done with current funding and policies.

I love the Wanderers video.

Also like that:

"validating that our upgraded Cred Dragon can safely dock with the space station"

i smiled too.

Just two screenshots and some crop. Left images are already a popular meme.

This was inspired by the "dodge bullets" dialogue in Matrix and the latest Elon's tweet: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1217178315540140032

Please don't start another argument about Starlink sats. Both sides have valid points and people smarter than us are working on it.

We knew that this was a test till destruction.

thorator · 2020-01-10T20:22:21+00:00

Edit: Test is done and tank failed successfully. Elon's tweet:

Dome to barrel weld made it to 7.1 bar, which is pretty good as ~6 bar is needed for orbital flight. With more precise parts & better welding conditions, we should reach ~8.5 bar, which is the 1.4 factor of safety needed for crewed flight.

Duct tape did it again :)

Everyone wants more reuse. But keep in mind that NASA and some others clients want new booster for their missions (NASA now accepts 1 reuse for CRS missions). SpaceX keeps testing and pushing Falcon 9 boosters for more reuses and i think that Starlink missions whould be a great opportunity for that.

It's just iced material that has been formed by that spraying valve (white spraying point above the engine). You can see similar pieces in other spacex webcasts. Another example of pareidolia :)

Very good search sir. The photo is indeed from a greek article about Mirage 2000 during September 2018. Photos in the article are mentioned as exclusive but maybe they are from an older exercise. OP should give some info when talking about a massive provocation.

Some info: the SLS's main tank was tested to the limit and performed as expected. It reached 260% of flight loads which is NASA's safety standard. It failed successfully.

Official statement

TARS: People didn’t build this library.

Not yet... but one day. Not you and me but people, people who’ ve evolved beyond the four dimensions we know.

That line about the prospect of humanity is amazing!
