There is only one mixture, and the outlet widths. It makes more sense to bore holes into a solid block, but aside from that, the equation is 3 variables from 2 inputs, the divided pressure, the expansion, and the temperature. It is not complex to wave the function to find the optimal with a computer. You may even make guesses from intuition about the natural elements, and test it on your computer. It is not rocket science.

Then once the Shuttle is retired for something commercial and cheaper with true equivalent capabilities and we're not digging through the couch for spare change for LITERALLY EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE BUDGET we can do solar sails, nuclear propulsion research, space telescope spam, etc. without worrying about some fucking contractor in the middle of a corn field and his Senator having a say over future manned rocket design.

>This optically coupled particle and laser beam are governed by two fundamental coupling phenomena. The light guiding occurs due to the higher index of refraction inside the particle beam compared to the vacuum of space outside the beam. This same principle can be seen in step index fiber optic cables. The particle guiding requires the particles to be at very low (sub-Kelvin) temperatures to effectively couple the beams. Once the atoms are cold, the high intensity laser creates and potential “well” through a dipole force that the particles will stay trapped in unless they gain enough energy to escape the well.

A FULLY reusable rocket. That's part of the second stage engine. The first stage is going to be a pretty conventional looking Falcon 9 clone, but the second is more conical and seems like its going to use an aerospike that'll double as a heat shield for 2nd stage reentry. It's also a hydrolox engine, which tracks with their statements about it being the "highest performing upper stage" out of all the new small launchers. One the company's co-founders was in charge of BE-3/3U development at Blue Origin so it's not like they lack any experience with the awkward stuff.

if they can figure out how to lay out tons of solar panels/reactors before hand and actually generate a ton of fuel and oxidizer to prove it will work then the hardest hurdle will have been conquered.

But we're not scaling up to anything like Starship. We're not even getting close to Falcon 9. This rocket is a pipsqueak that's lifting a ton and a half to LEO. You'd need a first stage with a bit more power than New Shepard's chubby sounding rocket body but there's no reason why you can't design a functional hydrolox first stage if that's where your technical experience is.

There's also nothing suggesting that they're going to use a hydrogen-fueled first stage. They haven't even started designing the that stage yet, so they might not have even know what they want to use yet.

>> No.14827519

Okay then at that point go with hypergolic. Some mixtures outcompete even methalox and it’s not like you need to ISRU so why the fuck would you commit to hydrogen or methane

No, I worked for an aerospace contractor that did work for most of the big names NASA, Bowing, SpaceX, Aerojet, Sierra Nevada etc.

My fingerprints were on parts that took people to space. (well we did a good job of cleaning them but the prints were there at one point).

I think NASA is just phenomenally good at wasting money. And while I wouldn't at all be suppressed to see a decent fraction evaporate off in the eather, that money is not being siphoned off to fund black opps research in the south pole pyramid.

The F37 was a big enough cash cow for all the black ops folks to vampire away all the money they could dream of. NASA's budget is pitiful compared to those folk.

The point of using hydrogen is that despite its downsides they have more experience using it than a more conventional mix like methalox or kerolox. They don't have that experience using hypergolic fuel and if they did they'd be smart enough not to use them on a vehicle they're intending to be rapidly reused.

We could see this pic related shot with Falcon Heavy, SLS, and Starship all in one picture.

Yeah, but if they can't get another 6 month certification for the boosters they have to go back to the VAB and destack everything. Maybe they can reuse the boosters after pulling the segments apart or maybe they need to wait for the next set to be ready. If they don't launch by the beginning of January we're going to be looking at a much longer delay than just to February.

The way to beat the lunar night at the south pole is having solar farms at multiple points and then hooking them up with cables. It's still super inconvenient and nuclear won't happen in a long time.

They said that it was going to be cheaper and faster, but they also lied through their teeth about the shuttle's projected flight rate. They lied so brazenly about that even the Soviets were saying "these economics make no fucking sense." They say a lot of things. Don't trust them. They're still part of the government.

If they actually cared about following the cheapest and quickest route they would have used a mix of orbital depots and second generation EELVs, or gone with a Shuttle-C design and a mission profile with distributed launches. Instead, the wrote in into law that NASA had to use a rocket that kept all of the old shuttle contractors happy and were handed a draft of a design that a bunch of congressional aids felt was the best way to do that.

>>14829009
It did have an upper stage; the "upper stage" was just going to be a mostly stock Blok-DM pulled off the top of the Proton that they'd stick at the bottom of the payload canister.

Space Rock:
Hawkwind's classic space rock song "Spirit of the Age". In the song a human clone, one of many developed to be laborers, is employed on an asteroid mining operation with his fellow clones. He tells the tale of his life indirectly while expressing his emotions and desires in a letter to his wife back on Earth in the first verse. In the 2nd verse the clone tells the listener about himself directly:
I am a clone,
I am not alone
Every fiber of my flesh and bone
is identical to the others
Everything I say is in the same tone
As my test tube brother's voice
There is no choice between us
If you had ever seen us
You'd rejoice in your uniqueness
And consider every weakness
something special of your own
Being a clone I have no flaws to identify
Even this doggerel that pours from my pen
Has just been written by another twenty telepathic men
Oh, word for word,
it says:

"Oh, for the wings of any bird,
other than a battery hen"

He is given a rich sexual fantasy life to keep him occupied during his off hours, he has a fake loli wife which he will never touch and a mechanical doll version of her who prefers to fuck other dudes. Regardless all that the clone still considers himself perfect in every way, wouldn't change a thing, masturbatory self-love is enough to satisfy his weak willed mind, he has no desire to escape his slavery, he doesn't even consider the possibly, his philandering robot sex toy's vagina will keep him on the job site, content and performing his daily duties until it is time to replace him.

titanium is such a tease-it's not at all rare or hard to find, but it is a pain in the ass to work with and process. i think martian surface condition will make processing it somewhat easier than on earth, not much of a concern with it burning and mars has plenty of titanium on its surface.

>even the Soviets were saying "these economics make no fucking sense."
The Soviets were very good at economics, their goal was not expanding their own economy, their goal was to allow the economy to provide whatever limited resources were necessary to stave of a revolt and skim off all the rest for their personal private war chests.
When Brezhnev decided he needed a new bag man to carry off all his cash, he married his daughter to a military officer, a guy named Chubanov. The two didn't know each other, they never developed a relationship even after marriage, but because Chubanov was married to Brezhnev's daughter, the boss could be assured the money given to Chubanov would stay in the family. Chubanov was given the task of skimming wealth from the Uzbek cotton industry and in turn the Aral sea was drained over time to produce cotton to make money for Chubanov. Chubanov lost his protection after daddy Brezhnev died, he was arrested and it came to light that Chubanov had at least $5 billion in West German and Swiss bank accounts, skimmed from cotton sales. That was just the amount they were able to recover, he may have made off with more and that was early 1980s money. $5 billion in 1980 was enough to pay for the construction of an HST.
The Soviet space program could've had an HST if they'd wanted it to, they managed their resources towards other aims instead. They knew what they were doing and their execution of their economic plans hit the goal precisely every time.

man, KSP is frustrating as hell. it's not the rockets blowing up, i actually enjoy the process of trial and error there, slowly putting together better and better designs. it's the random shit, like parachutes deploying in the middle of a launch no matter how i stage the rocket, the designer telling me i didn't put a manned module on the rocket despite the fact that i clearly put a manned pod there and can see it, the random auto-snapping the parts do when i try to put them on and so on
the game honestly just doesn't feel complete, feels like an alpha version. i wish there were a more... functional rocket design/spaceflight sim, but it doesn't look like there is one

it always amuses me when you hear about shit like this and the person stealing is clearly trapped in some kind of weird mental loop of just piling up the stolen money in a bank accounts and becoming attached to that abstract number being high. I mean fuck me, why on earth wouldn't you be converting that wealth over to art or property via shell companies and intermediaries?

They will be better, at least at the start. A lot of the maintenance work comes from how stupidly old the modules are. The main components of ROS were built by Soviet engineers to be the core of Mir-2 and if launched back in that role would have reached the end of their expected operational lives while Bill Clinton was still in office. The complaints that cosmonauts have over the work needed to keep their geriatric half of the space station running justifies Russian alcoholism.

New commercial stations will be new, and they should be cheap enough to decommission and replace before they get to the state the ISS is currently in.

Medium/heavy is normally a bit outside of what startups are usually capable of. You want to start with something smaller to get the basics nailed down and build up a successful history for potential customers. Relativity is actually a good example of this, starting with Terran-1 before trying to get Terran R flying.

Firefly is teaming up with Northrop Grumman for the Antares 300 which will lift in the same weight class as Antares 230 and Neutron. "Beta" will probably develop into a more advanced version of this post-acquisition, maybe with some reusability.

Pivdenmash is (in theory) working on the Cyclone 4M, but domestic Ukrainian rockets were a dodgy proposition before the current war.

There's a few ideas that have been floated by Chinese "space corporations" that would be in this class, but those groups are all pretty focused on monetizing derivatives of the DF-31/41 ICBM, so I'd be surprised if any of those plans are more than talk.

None of those groups are really startups in the proper sense. Firefly teamed up with big aerospace, Pivden is an old Soviet design bureau, and the Chinese companies are all just the PLA hiding behind a shell corporation. It'd be nice to see more players trying to go straight for 10,000kg/LEO but the ones that do try (Beal, Kistler) usually don't turn out all that well.

Raptor was never developed for a booster in its inception circa 2009. It was meant to be a hydrolox upper stage engine for Falcon. At that time, Merlin 2 was meant to power their super heavy lifters, the Falcon X line, using kerolox. Raptor hydrolox was abandoned for methalox in November 2012, and given a new responsibility of use on the booster for MCT at the same time

By realistic I meant something more akin to a sandbox spaceflight simulator rather than some Star Wars game in which physics are nonexistent and you are locked in some area in space where you can't do anything else except for shooting the bad guys. And also having decent graphics, Kerbin in unmodded KSP is a giant pixel for goodness' sake. And lastly replace the kerbals with humans, imagine the kino footage we could get of our games.
Also, it's not necessary for it to be super hard for the average player or basically require an engineering degree to be able to play it, if that's what you mean by boring. It could have several levels of difficulty, all the way up to something like Realism Overhaul in steroids.

KSP2 should be developed by a bunch of qualified autists as a side hobby, as opposed to some SphereOfInfluence game devs larping about knowing orbital mechanics. That way their passion translates directly to the game, and it isn't dumbed down for people to stream "lmao exploding rockets" on Twitch as the FOTM game.

I don't really think KSP 2 would ever get big on twitch, not even as a fotw/m thing. It's just very non-conducive to that type of audience.

I remember when the full version first released, it got "big" on Youtube when let's players made videos and they couldn't understand how SRBs worked. Now it has gone back to being gatekept by spaceflight enthusiasts.

We just need to make a proper new general once this one hits page ten and ignore the other one. And if mods delete the real one then we chimp out.

wait apple is funding globalstar? they have a 3,080 satellite megaconstellation under development.

i thought they were just running with a few satellites but it looks like apple is helping them grow. looks like they're using rocketlab too, so rocketlab will have launches secured for a long time.

So the design of HLS has changed once again. You can see that solar panels on the nosecone are missing, which implies that they're now most likely retractable.
