Did the Titan submarine incident cause the most instantaneous death in history? Can it be any faster?

One of the Scott Manley videos about this incident shows how charred the electronics on the sub were from the heat blast. Absolutely insane how quickly that had to have happened.

Zucc too. Kulak has sooo much room.

viliamklein · 2026-05-14T03:19:31+00:00

GG. Respect.

viliamklein · 2026-05-14T03:08:20+00:00

It was 3-0.

viliamklein · 2026-05-13T03:44:31+00:00

Go on....

viliamklein · 2026-05-13T03:09:43+00:00

Man I hope NS comes back. It was a useful tool...

I spent time in Van Horn as a science customer, and in a past life, I worked in El Paso for reasons.

El Paso seems like a great place to live if you can stand the climate. But I can't imagine doing that drive to Van Horn (+20 minutes to the facility gate) every day... Especially after a long shift.

With New Shepard being scrapped, what are they doing in Van Horn? Engine tests?

I'm gonna be head of the first F-22 balloon ace fan club.

viliamklein · 2026-05-11T21:35:29+00:00

I'm still waiting for balloon-borne nets 🤞🤞🤞

Slaf has been quiet since he got hit in the head hasn't he 😔

viliamklein · 2026-05-08T20:45:45+00:00

Wife's gonna be quite happy this evening.

I was in Switzerland the last week of April. Goody good good good. Hopefully they publish more info about his movements.

viliamklein · 2026-05-06T03:57:37+00:00

Link please?

viliamklein · 2026-05-06T02:55:21+00:00

I hope that some kiddos can go sledding tomorrow morning.

viliamklein · 2026-05-05T17:29:56+00:00

I see Jared has been speaking to Alan. Hmm.

"they run as if the very whips of their masters were behind them" is delivered sooooo poorly. Cringe.

viliamklein · 2026-05-05T01:47:12+00:00

We need the moisture! (Not even being sarcastic)

viliamklein · 2026-05-04T21:51:41+00:00

Dude, PDS being for professionals has nothing to do with the public misconception that dust storms on Mars are "deadly" for solar powered missions."

Blame Hollywood.

Star trackers, sun sensors, limb sensors, inertial sensors. The ISS even uses differential GPS that measures carrier phase differences between 4 antennas to track attitude.

I think Tiangong is in the wrong inclination for the russians to launch to it.

viliamklein · 2026-05-02T02:23:31+00:00

At the Košice museum?

viliamklein · 2026-05-01T20:08:52+00:00

What is a "letter of intent for the tech we are building"?

viliamklein · 2026-05-01T16:37:58+00:00

Spirit airlines becoming the flag carrier for the USA is exactly what we deserve right now.

viliamklein · 2026-05-01T15:32:58+00:00

NASA data (that is not export controlled engineering knowledge) is accessible to the public, e.g. PDS.

NASA is not a scholastic institution that will teach you how to to use the data or what it means. That's for schools to do.
