RT @JohnCleese: Old Latvian proverb: Never hold an election in a lunatic asylum. The staff will always get outvoted

@fomo_rising @PebMet1 @C_S_Skeptic Musk has a broad knowledege in rocketry, but also a superficial one. The conventional rockets like raptor are quite good. But it's a decade old technology. Where Musk is more involved personally, it becomes a desaster: See Starship (planned 100-150tons payload will be only 50).

@TheRickWilson After the fall if the Ussr the United States was one of the Countries that gave a guatantee für Ukraines security. So that Ukraine gave up its atomic bombs. Now the United States has to stuck to its word and at least pay, if not send own troops.

@koukamdoblba @Cypherl1 @LMadgit @thunderf00t Exactly. Look at stsrship: It was planned to have a payload of 100-150 tons. Now it turns out it has much less: 40-50 tons. And I'm even skeptical about that. This makes the whole moon landing plan impossible! Seems self landing rockets have a lot of problems...

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t But you know alot about spaceflight? What is your qualification?

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t Because Elon has a big mouth. Its like a lot of companies tried out Gigacasting because Elon claimed it is so successfull at Tesla, which it isnt.

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t They could do it for the spectacle. After all, they rely on Investors and government contracts

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t That is the question.

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t That is a lot to read. Can you explain it in short Text?

@H3cJP_ @LMadgit @thunderf00t OK, so please calculate and show it!

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t OK, so how much money does SpaceX save by reusing? And please give a source for the Information.

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t And?

@H3cJP_ @LMadgit @thunderf00t Its not clear, because SpaceX does not give us numbers for .the money saved by reusing. Furthernore is SpaceX mainly financed by investors and not by what it earns from rocket starts.

@thesheepdog69 @thunderf00t What percentage of money you can save by using a reusable rocket?

@Chasing_Nemesis @thunderf00t What advantage has a reusable rocket? What percentage of money can you save?

@LiamMcDougal @thunderf00t How much money would that save, if any?

@StarshipCobson @thunderf00t It is still an open question whether reusable rockets save any money.

@LMadgit @thunderf00t It is still not clear whether reusable rockets bring any advantages.

@PebMet1 @ItsSpunky_ @thunderf00t Whether reusable rockets save significant money is still an open question.

Leute von Trump/Musk sollen wohl rumgegangen sein und haben Bürger direkt auf dem Tablett elektronisch wählen lassen. Nur...geht das gar nicht. Damit hätten sie die Wahl unterdrückt:
