...but for me, the greatest reason for a #space program is all the warmongers who make things to kill people, can make things that uplift humanity, literally.
All the war industry is space industry.

Je crois qu'on a la meilleure vidéo du mois :
BPS Space a enfin lancé sa fusée (fabriquée par approximativement une (1) personne) et a fait cuire un peu de viande avec la friction de l'air. Des mois de préparation et une vidéo qui résume tout à l'occasion du lancement.

Time to play some #KerbalSpaceProgram.
Today's hare-brained idea: Make a space-faring learjet.
Not a spaceplane. A totally normal-looking learjet with jet engines ONLY that has mostly-recoverable appendages for boosting it up into orbit, and RCS/OMS (maybe a Terrier for the OMS, puff engines are mad inefficient).
But once it re-enters, it shouldn't be distinguishable from a totally ordinary learjet once the RCS/OMS pods have jettisoned and parachuted down to the KSC. ;)
One of the difficulty is that while the mk2 parts are more heat-resistant and spacious (like a learjet), they don't look like a learjet, so I don't think I can use them. I'll have to stick with very BBQ-prone mk1 parts. But I do have one trick up my sleeve that I'll allow some rule-bending for: a single non-functional rcs port at the very nose of the plane to shield the cockpit from excess heat during reentry.

The #Chinese 🇨🇳 #SpaceIndustry recognizes that the future of spaceflight is fully reusable ♻️, and even its state enterprises are re-calibrating toward such an outcome.
By contrast, #US 🇺🇸 policymakers seem determined to force #NASA to continue building the ultra-expensive and expendable #SLS rocket for decades. This consumes a NASA budget 💰 that could otherwise be directed toward the kind of technological advances that might keep the US civil #SpaceProgram ahead of #China. https://arstechnica.com/space/2024/11/chinas-long-term-lunar-plans-now-depend-on-developing-its-own-starship/

#Presidents support #NASA and do what NASA says. We could have orbiters around every planet 🪐 in the #SolarSystem for a fraction 📊 of the cost of #Artemis. But nobody gave us that option.

Mars as climate fix?
Simpler to terraform Earth.
We lack will, not tech.#haiku #senryu #poem #ShortPoem #climate #SpaceProgram #ClimateMitigation #ClimateDenial
I love the space program as much as anyone, but there is not even time left on habitable Earth to think somehow a colonization to Mars would save us.
Terraforming is a VERY difficult, expensive, and risky task, easy to fail at, as writers of hard science fiction like Kim Stanley Robinson have explained in fascinating detail.
If you REALLY want an uninhabitable planet to rehabilitate, take the engines out of existing rockets, put them on cinder blocks, and wait. The wait won't be long. You'll be on one faster, cheaper, and more reliably than if you try to escape the gravity well, and with lots better available resources.
Seems far better to me to just get started now in earnest with the serious task of fixing Earth, in hopes of optimizing out the messy, sad, painful part in the middle where humanity goes extinct due to that messy uninhabitability thing that's rocketing toward us. Fixing things here at home is perhaps not as flashy as planetary colonization, but it's much more relevant and, if we start now, doable. YMMV.

@senbillnelson 's outsized influence on #NASA over four decades is undisputed, but some of us in the #SpaceCommunity are concerned this may not be a feature 👎. Senator #Nelson’s imprint on the #SpaceProgram has led to grand pronouncements based on #unrealistic industry estimates, multibillion-dollar 💰 #cost overruns, years of schedule #delays and unmet expectations 😠 https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/bill-nelson-isnt-the-best-choice-for-nasa-administrator/
