"If you stay home, don't go to work, and shop. Then the viruses have won." G W Bush

Anyone in their right mind would prefer to take first class in a wide body with a good entertainment system, than take rocket travel with 0.5% chance of death.

And Anderson Cooper compared to capitol protest/riot to the Rwandan genocide. As absurd as the qanon people are, CNN is worse.

"The space shuttle was a human rated craft." It probably shouldn't have been. It killed 2 entire crews, 14 people, out of of133 launches.

Musk is not a scientist. But his a Mad Lad just for buying twitter. The left is currently melting down that a "free speech absolutist" will own twitter.
5
They'll just change their offer to include a free Juicero.

Tesla stock just went up 34% after this video.
5
It went up 35% in the last 5 days. Thunderfoot has a hate boner for Musk.

There's no way the rocket's internals will survive 10,000 g on the centrifuge. In particular the fuel tanks will explode.
4
It would cause a disruption of native animal movements.

We'll enter another Eocene era. The Earth was lush and beautiful. Even if some areas are underwater, there will be new inhabitable lands, Greenland, Antarctica.

"Every EXPRESSO machine that takes ground..." That's the equivalent of saying the N-word in urban cosmopolitan culture.
3
A problem I haven't heard addressed is that the rocket will be spinning at 450 rpm. So when it's released out of the centrifuge it will be spinning head over tail 7 times a second. It wont be aerodynamically stable.

I have to wonder why you dislike Elon Musk so much. Under the last twitter ownership they were taking censorship orders from the FBI, political activists, and the White House.
3
The Babylon Bee had a parody that they only found an Arthur C. Clarke space fetus, which isn't life according to most politicians in the US.
3
We had it much better then, than under dementia Joe Biden - who hasn't done a single competent thing in his entire political career.
3
Your accommodations on Musks ship will cost about the price of a hospital bed, and board, in an average US hospital.
3
I don't know what you're complaining about. Why would I care if Twitter is profitable? Before Elon Musk Twitter was a cesspool of toxic regressive left politics, and he ended that.
3
@Cancellator5000 Saudis like straight things. But cities aren't designed like that. Cities are always designed radially, centered at a river or port, with roads leading out from a center. The transportation of people, goods, and utilities requires that.
3
Twitter isn't going bankrupt. Musk cut most of the staff. It was a political operation, run by progressive, SJW, neomarxists, taking censorship orders from the US government. Musk bought it just to overturn all of that. When you're worth 250 billion, you have no reason to care if this platform is profitable.

She talks like she really needs to take a dump.

@teksatan4699 Centripetal force is force due to acceleration. And the forces will be extreme at the rpm that they need. A rocket will have fuel and tanks, and they will be subjected to 10000g. And it will be sideways, so not in the direction of the rocket's thrust.
2
@teksatan4699 The equation like most Newtonian mechanics from F=ma. You get F=mv^2/r if you use linear velocity v, where v^2 denotes length squared. Or if you use angular velocity w: F=mrw^2 which apparently is what you used. An object will travel in a straight path, constant velocity, unless a force is applied to it.

Except only 6% of those COVID deaths are from COVID alone. An LA representative died in the hospital of a heart attack, and it was reported as a COVID death because he had the virus. And I don't buy that the behavior of the Aus population is so massively different than the UK and US.
2
Well...the stock went up 20% in the last 5 trading days, so it would be better to hold. It's actually depressing to see TF get Sam Harris style brain worms. The stock was falling because it spiked at $450 in December, a 100% gain in just a month. That's what stock prices generally do.
2
TF is not always completely accurate himself. Turkey has implemented hydroxychloroqine to lower the cases of pneumonia by 2/3 in COVID patients. The opposition to it was total anti-science. It was purely political pettiness, from the Orange Man Bad automatons.
2
How long is it going to take for them to realize that a 1000 km long vacuum chamber is a billion dollar death trap.
2
Has Elon Musk invented it yet?
2
It's so appropriate that her motto was "Do or do not. There is no try." Because she never tried. She picked a problem that was impossible, and faked it until it caught up to her.
2
The Shuttle could be half the cost as Space X per person and it wouldn't be worth it. There was a 1.5% chance of dying in one Shuttle trip to orbit.
2
So they found interesting chemistry in the atmosphere of Venus. The discovery isn't bunk, they're just wrongly hyping it in the media. Saturn's moon Titan has an extremely rich chemistry of organic compounds. It would probably have life, if it weren't so cold.
2
I bought $5000 of it a week ago. That was the quickest $1500 I ever made.
2
It's a pretty stupid idea to pollute the atmosphere with actual toxins just to offset the effects of CO2.
2
@Joaquin546 The ADL is an extortionist organization. "letting hate fester "? Give me a break.
2
This is a straw man. Genetic research consists of modifying organisms ether for experiment, or to produce useful proteins. All bio-genetic drugs, such as monoclonal antibodies are produced by engineering animal cells to produce proteins.
2
I'm thinking the same thing. Time to unsub, like I did Sam Harris 8 years ago. Tesla stock has gone up 20% in the last few trading days.
2
@paulgibbon5991 You people are such automatons. "Enjoy your tarriffs." Derp. Latest headline in my feed: "Rolls-Royce explores shifting engine making to the US to counter Trump tarrifs" You people should really be embarrassed by the useless politicians you cover for.
2
I bought some, just a week ago. And just as I was thinking that I should sell it and cut my losses, it went up 35%. That was some quick money.
2
All those "climate fueled disasters" were always happening, eg. hurricanes, forest fires. Storms actually kill much fewer people, because our ability to respond to them is much better.
2
@RTSFirebatYT You can't stop hurricanes, fires, and other natural disasters. They were more destructive in the past because the infrastructure was weaker. 100 years ago hurricanes killed 50x more people.

How to survive on the sun?

@jaguarke069 Only to you blue collar Trump voters.

@teksatan4699 The centripetal force will depend on just the rotational speed, not how long it gets to speed.
1
@teksatan4699 I don't think so either. The centrifuge will fly apart before they get to those speeds. This is obviously the Theranose of aerospace. Next, I would like to hear what Thunderfoot thinks about the feasibility of fusion for electric power. Because the media is starting to hype it. There are political and funding motives for over hyping such things.

@teksatan4699 Centripetal force is acceleration. In circular motion the acceleration is perpendicular to the velocity. The force on it is the force due to the acceleration by Newton's law F=ma.
1
@teksatan4699 If you're rotating a weight on the end of a string, the force is that exerted by the string on the wight. And according to Newton's second law F=ma, it accelerates it. It can maintain the same speed. But the velocity is changing in circular motion. Velocity is a vector, while the speed is the magnitude of the velocity. People used to, and still do, call the force that slams you against the wall of the carnival ride that rotates, the "centrifugal force". But that's misleading. It's a fictitious force. The carnival ride car is accelerating. Thus the force comes from F=ma.

@teksatan4699 (10,0) to (10,10) don't obviously lie on a quarter circle. If you traced a circular path from (10,0) by 10(cos t, sin t) as t goes from 0 to \pi/4, to do a 1/4 circle but the end point would be 10(\sqrt{2}/2 ,\sqrt{2}/2 ) not (10,10).

Traveling to Mars would be only for exploration. Bringing rock and soil samples back would advance science greatly. The idea of a colony is just fantasy. Some day there will probably be a station there. But it will just be like a research station at the South Pole. It will depend on supplies being shipped there.

I wondered why they launched Apollo 12 into a thunder storm. Why take risks like that? There was the risk, unknown for the entire mission, of damage to the command module parachute system. They didn't mention it to the astronauts because there was nothing they could do about it.
1
It's obviously not a bubble. It recorrected at over $450 in December. Stocks have been sliding down in general in the last few weeks.
