well inflation isn't actually definitively proven AFAIK, but regardless, the idea is that the further away something is the faster it's moving away from us, hence hubble's redshifting.
stuff that's close to us is barely moving away from us at all, whereas stuff that's very far away is moving rapidly.

Think of space like the surface of a balloon, mark three points on the balloon an equal distance apart in series:

A----B----C

now blow air into the balloon

A--------B--------C

if we are at A, then B has moved 4 spaces away from us, however C has moved 8 spaces away.
the universe is expanding evenly, however from our perspective the things that are further away from us are traveling away more rapidly.

I've never understood the "spacetime curvature" explanation. So if I throw an object, it moves in a "straight line", corresponding to the curvature of spacetime. But if I throw an object in the same direction, but faster, it doesn't follow the same path. The behavior of gravity acting on a thrown rock is more force-like than curvature-like. It would make more sense to say that space itself is moving toward gravity sources, than to merely say "it's just curved bro".

Your currency is backed by nothing, they create giant quantities of it to pay for endless bullshit which devalues any savings you might have through inflation. Also every dollar in existence has interest owed on it which can never be repaid because there is more debt than currency in the system, so when you hear people talk about "paying the national debt" it's literally impossible and that's by design.

If you're American then recall that the United States government has the power to ban owning precious metals, and has used this power in the past.

One individual person could do so, but if everybody tried to do so there wouldn't be remotely enough gold on the entire planet to convert your fiat currency into, because they've PROOONTed so much more of it than there are valuable resources.
The whole principle is that the government can just manufacture "money" and as long as people treat it as if it has value, it functions as if it did, but if you tried to trade it all in at once for actually valuable resources (food, tools, precious metals, etc) there'd turn out to be way more worthless cotton bills than actual valuable shit to pass around.
The consequences of meme money have been catastrophic for civilization, we should either return to a universally valuable precious resource standard and accept a much smaller quantity of much more valuable currency with a strictly limited supply, or switch to something like a kilowatt-dollar which will at least hold it's value until somebody invents super efficient fusion powerplants or starts building a partial dyson sphere.

>what's preventing me converting my savings to gold for example

Nothing of course, except that various entities suppress the value of precious metals because they are the number one indicator of the real rate of inflation. They do this by trading many hundreds of times the amount of physical precious metal that actually exists in paper stocks which they endlessly dump to keep the price down. Of course it can only go on for so long because there are a finite amount of precious metals available and when supply starts to dwindle (it already is) things will get interesting. Also remember back in the day the us government ordered the surrendering of all gold. Banks, safety deposit boxes and secure store facilities instantly cucked and opened your shit for the feds so you must keep it at your home or somewhere that is not an institution.

Inside of galaxies distances are short enough that everything just feels a microscopic reduction in the strength of gravity versus what they would experience if space were not expanding. Only once you go to intergalactic distances does the strength of gravity between objects lose to the "force" of expansion.

No, the expansion can be thought of as a tiny negative gravity force. Imagine a universe with nothing in it: instead of zero gravity, there would be a very very small amount of antigravity, everywhere. Now put one object in that universe. That object's gravity will add to the very small amount of negative gravity and produce a spherical volume where the value of the gravitational force will be positive (no inflation).
Maybe you're getting confused by treating regular gravity as if it's anything more than a sort of "shrinking" of spacetime, an anti-inflation force if you will.

The Planets Suite by Gustav Holst.
Both the various recordings of the original and the piano duet versions; the full electronic covers, one by Patrick Gleeson and another by Isao Tomita, and the various covers of some of the pieces you can find.

Gleeson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dreBrS6ybu0&list=OLAK5uy_n0vPkV6oWmerZtSzI1EpN-uMtfQtQzM-M&index=1
Tomita: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uv707GLbFGw

I also like Pluto, the Renewer and Earth, the Bringer of Life; both made as a complement to the original suite.

Pluto: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5p3ZTAxgms

because its a waste of time or at least way down on the prioritization list
and no, its not needed or the only reason to settle Mars, a self sustaining colony should be able to function on Mars without terraforming the whole planet, just "terraform" bubbles of the planet that are slowly expanding

The regolith is shallow and rock hard after just a few inches, and you can avoid the spray effects just by putting the legs out a little bit or only firing the engines for a really short time. Goodness sakes, people, the morphology of the lunar surface was quite well known pretty much as soon as Apollo 11 happened.

>What’s a technology you think is overhyped?

>I’m going to go with an oldie: rockets. It's just a historical accident that chemical rockets became our only way of putting stuff into space, and if we had started at a different time we would have ended up doing something that works better.

>One alternative would be beaming energy from the ground to vehicles, using lasers or microwaves. That seems like a doable project right now. There's nuclear propulsion, which I think is probably never going to happen at scale, because it's politically impossible, but even something as simple as constructing a very tall building or a tall tower and using that as a launch platform, or as a way to accelerate things up upward, could really change the economics of spaceflight.

I've been poking at the numbers for space based solar power (beaming down to Earth) and I realized the reason everyone uses microwave downlink designs was the laser blindness problem.
>anything UV or higher gets eaten by the atmosphere
>IR or visible light lasers will explode your eyeballs or blind you if something shiny happens to deflect the beam at your face... which is a problem with a beam coming down from GEO a kilometer wide
so it has to be microwaves for safety... which incurs huge rectenna land area costs compared to ground photovoltaics. It's much more efficient to use powersats with IR lasers for powering laser-thermal spacecraft or as intentional killsats.

How much more energetic is the energy solar panels would recieve in space, as compared to some desert?

It's just less surface area needed in space for the same amount of energy?
So it's a matter of if the Lazer beam down process costs more than making up the surface area of solar panel coverage on earth.

So what if you lined a desert with a billion solar panels or whatever, and then also tried the space based solar, laser down specifically to an area with earth based solar recievers, to avoid lazering into people?

The lasering down space based solar can't be down near people or cities anyway.

So if the earth based reciever of space based solar laser, is stationed far away from people; what is the big concern then?

I was present at the origin of Blue Origin (originally Blue Operations LLC) and was its only employee for a little while. Under the title (shared by basically everyone in the company) of Member, Technical Staff, I worked there from circa 1999 until 2006. I performed operations as prosaic as punching down Ethernet cable, operating a plate grinder, and passivating rocket parts (which means making sure they don't have any residue that would react with hydrogen peroxide) but the bulk of my efforts were devoted to investigating possible alternatives to conventional rockets as ways of getting into space. Basically this involved producing a lot of Mathematica notebooks. When the company made a decision to stick with a more tried-and-true approach, I found other ways to make myself semi-useful, largely in the realm of trajectory analysis, until I decided to make an amicable withdrawal in late 2006.

Space is hard. This is why we test on a computer.

I'm also not sure if the life support system is actually finished yet. It's not essential until Artemis II in 2024, so they don't really need to get it done until that launch in 2025.

After that, orbital maneuvers will move the satellite into a geocentric highly elliptical orbit, whose apogee is high enough to allow flybys and imaging of the Moon and the surrounding environment."

Once the satellite is in position beyond our planet’s protective magnetic field, the BioSentinel team will trigger a series of experiments remotely, activating two strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae to grow in the presence of space radiation. Samples of yeast will be activated at different time points throughout the six- to twelve-month mission.

One strain is the yeast commonly found in nature, while the other was selected because it has trouble repairing its DNA. By comparing how the two strains respond to the deep space radiation environment, researchers will learn more about the health risks posed to humans during long-term exploration and be able to develop informed strategies for reducing potential damage."

Once it reaches its destination, NEA Scout will capture a series of images of its target -- ranging from 50 cm/pixels to 10 cm/pixels –which will be used by scientists on earth to better understand the object. The spacecraft will perform on-board processing of the imagery to reduce the file sizes to help speed their downlink time to earth from the onboard medium-gain antenna to the earth-based Deep Space Network.

The SRB pull date. NASA should be explicit here, and state that the SRBs are past due.

Yeah, NEA Scout is the sole reason why I'm halfway rooting for this SLS launch to succeed, but NASA must have some grudge against solar sails to put their second one on another test flight, after NanoSail-D was lost in a failed Falcon 1 launch. They canceled the Sunjammer mission, sad how little attention they give this area of propulsion.

>The Heliogyro spacecraft's attitude (orientation), and therefore thrust direction, would be controlled by changing the cyclic and collective blade pitch similar to a helicopter.
>Although the Heliogyro design has no mass advantage over a square sail, it remains attractive because the method of deploying large sail blades is simpler than a strut-based design. Blade stiffness is achieved by spinning the spacecraft (centrifugal force) with its rotational axis generally pointing at the Sun.

The good news is that once the technology exists you can't put the genie back in the bottle. The next step for photon sails is "hybrid sails" with photovoltaic as well as reflective modes. Then you can capture into orbit around other planets more easily, even Venus if you use a plasma magnet.
>launch on TVI direct ascent from Earth with chemical rocket because Venus is so close
>unfurl solar sail for midcourse corrections
>engage photovoltaic mode
>fire up plasma magnet to brake from flyby to capture (total propellant expenditure <1kg)
>use photon sail, plasma magnet, and atmospheric drag for Venus orbit maintenance on extremely long mission life
>use photovoltaics to power instruments and to recharge reaction wheels for attitude control
For Mars or a main belt or outer planet mission you'd probably be better off with an ion drive rather than a plasma magnet since you'd need sunward acceleration to brake into a capture orbit, at the price of less mission duration due to more propellant expenditure.

I am really surprised nobody has visualized that these pilots will be watching from the top of a 50-meter high building when they land. Knowing the last people who were there had their asses almost hanging in the lunar asphalt. That is a hundred times more cooler to me than the landing itself. Furthermore if they decide to leave an empty starship there on the surface as a permanent base.

For scale, 50 meters is how high above the lunar surface an astronaut would be if he was standing on the top of the Arc de Triomphe on the moon with these people
