I thought more recent studies have placed the missing mass as the collective mass of the Oort Cloud, especially as the plutinos have been found to have wildly different orbits than the inner rocky planets and the gas giants.
The less data that needs to go across the link, the better. So you would definitely want to set up a CDN endpoint on Mars that would take cached copies of data.
Eh, Boeing airplanes may or may not have lost doors during flight due to crappy design and construction, and the now multiple murdered suicide ls whistleblowers don't add to my trust in Boing.
I never thought I'd say this but "I want other companies to succeed at space travel"
To be clear, I don't want any companies in space because they'll simply ruin space the way they ruined earth. You will never convince me there aren't executives salivating at the idea of exploiting slaves employees far away from earth and it's " limiting regulations" so they can do whatever they want including just spacing someone out an airlock if they try to strike.
But so far it's been more or less one company who's been tossing trash all over LEO and larger trash between earth and Mars.
I'd rather space travel be open and easy for everyone, including some random guy who just wants a quick trip around Saturn. Of course we're likely centuries away from that, and I don't think we have centuries left as a whole.
While true, it's not like there's a monopoly on the market like in many other fields, I don't like Musk but he's a pioneer in many fields, besides SpaceX and Tesla he founded PayPal
Well, to get humans to space today you have either the crew dragon on a SpaceX falcon 9, or a Soyouz.
And relations with Russia are a bit tense nowadays, so if you are not Russian, there are currently no other options than SpaceX.
Kinda looks like a monopoly, with another actor starting to compete (and SpaceX is historically very competitive on prices, so without huge government subsidies, I doubt Boeing would consider maintaining their crewed vehicle)
Looks like a monopoly because SpaceX invented that niche and others lag behind RnD-wise, companies like Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and other companies behind the American space program are more in monopoly position and were more subsidized by the government than SpaceX ever was
He didnt found paypal, his company was merged with another one that became paypal. He was the CEO of PayPal early on, but was so universally disliked he was booted after 6 months.
He then took his Paypal money and did invest it in a fledgling startup named Tesla that had a working prototype of an electric sports car based on a Lotus frame. He later sued the actual founders so that he could claim he was a founder.
SpaceX is there because he had money to fund it and to entice Gwynne Shotwell, a renowed name in aeronautics, to his new space startup. Shes run it the entire time.
Musk is a "money guy" who lies a lot and has had some lucky hires. Hes a pitch man who has lived his entire life with a silver spoon in his mouth, which makes it easy to gamble on high risk projects.
Yep, he’s not anywhere near the visionary, the inventor, or the genius that he has made sure surrounds his persona in media.
He got handed money, invested it, and got lucky twice. A monkey could do that with a couple of levers.
I believed the hype as well, for quite some time. Then I listened to the bullshit he was saying and realized he’s just a copy of Donald Trump or Rupert Murdoch — people who happen to have money and are able to fool millions of other people that they’re intelligent because they happen to have money.
She underlines that although there is some artistic interpretation in the face reconstruction, actual scientific data derived from the skull parts forms the basis.
Isn't facial reconstruction from a skull almost entirely speculative?
You can get some information of the musculature from the bone structure, attachments are often fairly visible. But fatty tissue and skin, plus the uncertainty of the musculature still, all combine to be fairly high uncertainty ya.
