    Give them time, the UK has still to discover that brexit was pushed by hordes of deceptive brussels eurocrats.

    Pulse jets were a dead end technology anyway.

    With the V1 in mind that's funny.

  6. Re:Establishment clause on Thirty Meter Telescope Likely Never Gets Built ... In Hawaii · · Score: 1

    If you have seen images of animist society (Japan for example) you would know that work-tools and religion can be related. And 2000 years from now the telescopes will probably be seen as religious buildings. Scientists are often like religious casts more concerned by status and building temples than science itself.

    Insurance saves money when you know that 20% of the effort gives 80% of the result. Another 20% to pay the insurance and with 40% of the cost you get 100% revenues (in theory).

    On my small scale I imagine professions like software development (or business creation) attracts-creates this behavior. Much time can be spent looking and understanding practice, assembling and making tools, leaving precise instructions for daemons and users alike without ever doing the real job.

  14. Re:Well, well, well. on A Failure For SpaceX: Falcon 9 Explodes During Ascension · · Score: 1

    I thought SpaceX was going to cut costs by reuse, talking about 40 reuses. To make this possible they need a low failure rate like 1% or less. So I don't think SpaceX agrees with your explanation.

    I know this disease, although doing it with older historical equipment is more excusable and can be cheaper. Does it have a name?

    "Apres moi le déluge" I think he wants to kill low orbits with space junk, making him the one and only free satellite launcher and leaving humanity with the Elon junk belt.

    So he searched and found a purpose for his valuable rockets: selling internet to those who can't pay it yet.

    Maybe they think about equal treatment. They allowed 1.000 American bomber flights a month (20 kton), why not give the Russians an equal opportunity.

  25. Re:Energy on Dry-Ice Heat Engines For Martian Colonists · · Score: 1

    Maybe mirrors are cheaper, even then the mirrors must be oriented to something and maybe even that is cheaper. With Mars atmosphere being "about 0.6% of Earth's mean sea level pressure", Mars storms are paper tigers.
