@booster_10 @Bill_Thoreson @Booster_11 I recall the debris causing leakage of hydraulics and subsequent fires, but I’m not 100% sure, but yeah, the engines just weren’t reliable enough at that point in time.

@HeySlattz @BSF42069 They're trying to play it off as satire, but you can kind of just tell when someone has excess space in their head.

RT @BSF42069: People disagreeing with you doesn’t make them Nazis and it’s depraved to abuse the deaths of millions for internet points H…

@BSF42069 A good hyperbole is an exaggeration grounded in reality, "controlling your phone" is a flat-out lie.

Lmao everyone knows that wasn't sarcasm.

Holy retardation. 10 meters of water for radiation shielding?! I don't want what this guy is smoking, because it's clearly crack. There's a goldmine if you sort by new on the comments to CSS's first Starship episode.

@clebyherris One of the only enjoyable scenes from that movie tbh.

@The_Stossi28 @Booster_11 I don't think the pad nor regulatory approval was the bottleneck, it took a while for hundreds of fixes to be applied to the vehicles, although still at a lightning-fast pace, there was so much to do.

Why on Earth are ACH transfers not processed on the weekends? Do the computers need time off or something?

@elpro9197r48639 He’s very smart, much smarter than the engineers at SpaceX, they didn’t know the common dome was big bad, but he did, he saw through the delusions.

@ChrisOdom32 @C_S_Skeptic @thunderf00t The bringers of truth🙏

@Ben_Machine_ IIRC there are 7 people onboard right now, wouldn't be healthy for any of them. But the crew is obviously going to leave before it's decommissioned.

@elpro9197r48639 The common dome literally makes Starship impossible, how about you educate yourself:

The satellite was USA-193, a reconnaissance satellite that failed hours after reaching orbit, the reason given for destroying it was the fact that it contained over 1,000 lbs of hydrazine, as well as beryllium and a possible RTG, although it was confirmed in private that the real motives were to test America's ability to intercept satellites, a pretty good test as well, given they used a modified SM-3 surface-air-missile launched from a battleship, and interception of a satellite in a low orbit is far more difficult than that of a higher orbit. It came after China's test, and there were public safety concerns, but the real reason was clearly to show our adversaries that we could destroy their satellites with a warship alone, anywhere in the world at any time.

@Starship_block2 My source is literally just vibes, but Ship 34 will have a flawless ascent.

@BanhmiBrieoche I find it funny how people will become angry enough to fight each other over a sports team losing, I don't dislike sports, but a lot of the fans need to take a step back and realize that it isn't that serious in any way.

It's much more effective to launch a missile like the RIM-161 to LEO altitudes to intercept a satellite, though I'm not sure if such a missile could reach the altitudes Starlink operates at, China has demonstrated anti-satellite weapons, albeit in a way that blatantly disregarded orbital safety, not surprising given how they drench the countryside in hypergols every time they launch a Long March 2 through 4. Regardless, the USA exceeds the launch capacity of every nation on Earth combined, we could put them up faster than our adversaries could take them down. I would actually love to see China try.
