elon musk has weaponized the concept of safe reusable rockets. the perfect peacetime weapon. the army and air force have already scheduled tests for landing rockets in iran and north korea

What is Starship supposed to like, uh, do? It doesn't carry deployable payloads like satellites, probes or futuristic-spacestation bits. And I don't expect its "bellyflop to airbrake then suicide burn until my spindly legs are on firm, level concrete" trick will work on the Moon, Mars or anywhere else.

That poo poo is absolutely insane, if they manage to pull it off they can drop launch cost per kg by a couple orders of magnitude. It would be the biggest space flight revolution in decades. Also, the thing is now one of three official candidates for the moon lander in the artemis program. I don't know what you would even do with all that cargo capacity. Take a couple elephants to the moon and back?

No ones getting to Mars Everyone on the craft will murder each other before they get there because they are all insufferable and also insane/will go insane. As soon as the full enormity of it being impossible to return and youre going to live in a shipping container on Mars for the rest of your life drinking Soylent kicks in...

Space is up, why do they only make the rockets go up for a while then come back down? Coming back down is where they keep exploding, just keep going up.

CJacobs posted:The one question these musk people hate answering realistically is "why the gently caress would anyone want to go there?" I mean, the idea of going and settling new places is a deep, powerful current in all human cultures. Of course, what the Musk fanboys never seem to grasp is just how insanely inhospitable Mars is. It’s not appreciably different than being on the moon (like, gravity on Mars is closer to that of the moon than that of Earth). If you’re going to be on Mars, you’re basically going to be confined to landed spaceships and space suits the entire time you’re there. PBS Spacetime did a really good episode on what it would take to terraform Mars, and basically if everything went right and we dedicated essentially the entire economy of Earth to doing it (and a number of currently-impossible scientific breakthroughs occur) then we might be able to approach something almost habitable ~600 years. https://youtu.be/FshtPsOTCP4 Partially in the back of everyone’s mind when there’s talk of going to Mars is also the idea that they’re going to “escape” problems on Earth. (Ecological crisis, civilization’s collapse, etc.) You even see this from folks who are generally opposed to the effort, as they think Musk and other billionaires are planning an exit strategy of some sort. But, like, there is literally nothing that could happen on Earth (total nuclear war, Yellowstone eruption, another hit from an asteroid as big as the one that killed the dinosaurs) that would make it less hospitable to life than Mars is.

Seems like they should try building a rocket that flies more than 10km and then explodes. As far as I'm aware Mars was last observed several more km away than that at least

Yeah, but starship development seems to be going extremely well for now while nasa's artemis program is a never-ending clusterfuck of delays, cost overruns and bad design decisions so they are probably thinking that this thing will be certified and ready by the time nasa actually needs it.
