The fix could also be a software related issue considering this booster was coming in a bit faster than usual as per Scott Manley’s video on the matter. The software change could be as small as keep the other engines lit for a tiny bit longer to correct for any observed flight deviations. Or better flight deviation detection. The difference in speed is small enough that changes to landing event timings could be tweaked by a single second for instance.
Oh wow, so the memes got the look down correctly! 🤣
I’ve been seeing a few details coming out from this about gas pipelines being a big reason for a push into this particular region of Russia. But things I haven’t seen talked about are things like this will cause Russia to have to spread troops thinner from the eastern fronts to handle this incursion. It’s also far enough away from Belarus that they don’t need to worry about any collateral damage. And most importantly, it’s in the general direction of Moscow so it cranks things up a notch in terms of proximity to the general population.
Crossing my fingers and will be contributing to this hat trick come November
This is phenomenal footage, and helps to establish how accurate their landing is without putting lives at risk
Does this indicate that the atmosphere within Dragon and the EVA suits is 100% O2? Or is the concern here to mitigate risks if the atmosphere happens to be 100% O2 in an emergency situation?
Are you unhappy SpaceX has yet to achieve with Starship what it’s achieved with Falcon 9?
Or to put it in another way, are you unhappy with SpaceX for not accomplishing something no one else has been able to accomplish?
HFY = Humanity Fuck Yeah! A place for writers to post their stories about humans being awesome. Many of them were sci-fi space operas which is what I loved.
Oh neat, didn’t know it had this feature, thanks!
I’ll bite the bait and ask you to explain how Starlink satellites contribute towards the space junk problem without having to reference astronomy or bringing up you-know-who’s name.
Flawless launch and landings as usual 🥹
From a technical standpoint, I can’t see media-heavy social media in the format of Facebook lasting too long in a federated environment considering the costs involved to maintain the server instance. Trying to do that while being free is absolutely unsustainable. Another shift in resource management would have to happen before platforms like that would be inexpensive and scalable.
Currently, Lemmy instances are slowly and steadily growing with each user interaction within, and between instances. Most shared content is link aggregation meaning minimal server resources. But resource usage goes up much faster when images, or even videos are uploaded to be shared. This format will only grow more expensive over time, and definitely won’t last in the current format.
I feel like once they’ve proven SH can handle hot staging, they’ll eventually look into offsetting the vents on SH to redirect the exhaust preferentially in one direction to help give SH a kickstart in the flip maneuver. This in addition to SH always having a few engines lit would certainly help conserve fuel even if it’s just a tiny bit.
I’ve essentially been cut off from reddit so I’m sticking around here for getting my SpaceX fix.
If it’s possible, the discussion threads could have updates to the OP regarding current events, closures, expected tests, etc. Outside of those, the posts from other users would be perfectly fine.
OP are you a bot?
