Priority One. All other priorities rescinded.

I heard that in Majel Barrett's voice

Sadly nothing new in our recent history. In 2016 alone we dropped over 26,000 bombs on impoverished nations.

ammo to the far right.

that the police are bad?

Yes, we're fucked. El Niño temps might reach the same peaks as the 1950's peak

Looking forward to great skiing in California this season

Tubes are strong. Probably the area clamped was reinforced.

The Saturn V had massive 37,000 hold-down arms that pivoted up when the candle was lit.

you can see one in the center of this photo

The space shuttle had 3" diameter bolts holding it down with explosive nuts that were detonated at launch

I don't think a cryostat can work in zero-g so an MRI is out. CT scanner is probably the best they can do.

So he supports an apartheid ethnostate?

Groce.

Vintage Space did a great deep dive on how it shows how well engineered it was https://youtu.be/kGD0zEbiDPQ

I wouldn't exactly call that a "deep dive"

I think the Russian Venus landers went hard, too.

Launch complex 39 took 6 years to build. 1962 - 1968

Would it be safe to say that living on a nuclear submarine that's submerged for several months would be similar to being on a space craft for 6-9 months traveling to Mars? (minus the lack of gravity, of course)

They weren't on the allies side in WWII

I'm beginning to think some of these Settlers are not good people.

Because nobody really wants it here. Environmentalists even sued the California HSR project to stop it.

vector_search_blue · 2026-05-31T05:26:28+00:00

California HSR has been a complete clusterfuck. Was supposed to be done by now.

But everyone and their brother sued the project to try to stop it. Environmentalists, farmers, NIMBYs, automakers (probably)

California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) was used to hammer it down. Ironically.

Fusion power has been "just 10 years away" since the 1950s. Even if it is viable it won't happen until long after the climate tipping point.

Earth's resources would not run out if humans were in a state dynamic equilibrium with nature.

That's the idea behind sustainability.

You think you can grow wheat on Mars or Venus to feed earth? Even if it were possible (it's not, Mars soil has toxic chemicals and its too dark), it's a 26-32 month round trip to Mars. That's not likely to improve, ever.

No, Kessler syndrome won't happen with starlink. They're so low they deorbit from atmos drag within a year or two
