"NASA" still means "National Aeronautics and Space Administration". Does it report about the balloon festivals or watch guard airships on its press-conferences? No. It repots about rockets, ISS, Moon, Mars, whatever else. So, NASA honestly calls itself "aeronautic", just avoids explaining the true nature of this term.

The youtuban side panel keeps recommending the Norseban series. Why? I even don't see a sea here.

Jacuzzing others is a cheating as well. But helps in career. Combo: 1. Cheating = having fun with not a spouse 2. Cheating = playing not nice

Comparing this to the Reuters article about SpaceX, there is a question: does Boeing manufacture flamethrowers? They could motivate the assemblers ,if use them inside the building.

Kinda the M41 pulse rifle.

The Marvel superheroes sometimes are cheating.

CaribBean Bandidos.

There was a life before Elon Musk.

When your fan base is hexadecimal.

Granted. Now you feel twice guilty. I wish to update the wish list.

"Hey! Watch your step...p...p...p...p...p-p-p-p-p... p."

Yes.

The video sample rotates in the plane, perpendicular to the gravity axis. They don't need to move their wastes up to the zero-g level. *** CWR - centrifugal waste remover. Everyone opens a hatch in the floor, and the wastes fly away. *** The interesting part is the rotating part CoM balance, when they are walking around, or flushing the toilet.

A while later. Boeing spaceplane.

Of course, they have.

It doesn't exist in Russia. Just a temporization. An attempt to resurrect the religious discourse and attach it to the Soviet anti-religious society.

Gemini 7 after passing through the wormhole? Two weeks became two years?

Until the solr panels get covered with the insect craps and dirty cobwebs, and you need to wash them with chemicals, pouring them onto the honeycombs.

If replace the docking port on top with a twin-gun turret, they can add a gunner-radiooperator to the crew, or operate it by pilots. (I like the civil "Aeroflot" onboard together with the top gun.)

Gremlins. They had been forgotten, they are trying to remind of them. In space, in air. They want some more respect and attention. So, they screw the bolts, screw the valves. They kinda say: "You screw us, we'll unscrew you!" Also, Boeing should check, if somebody feeds a mogwai after the midnight, or makes it wet.

Tax office is in game. Somebody should drive fifty billionaires to the station to test it. Only the taxists can do that. On the another hand, they will see the abyss above and below, and realize, what can happen to the one, who doesn't pay taxes.

1. Low gravity, its health effects. The Martian crew should either stay for three years in orbit, or spend 1.5 of them at .4 g. This (both) should be tested on the Moon base, in a full-time Martian flight simulation. 2. The ship should stay intact for three years, and it can't be supplied or serviced from the Earth. The ship should be tested at the Moon, where they can return at any moment. 3. The 3-year long unsupplied ship should be redundant, have a lot of supplies onboard, the medical centrifuge is probably necessary. It's actually a heavy orbital station with engines. It should be in any case studied at the Earth, outside the radiation belts, so the Moon is an obvious choice. 4. The less cryofluids you have to deliver to orbit and pump (btw nobody did it yet), the less chance of something going wrong and preventing the whole flight. So, a multi-megawatt nuclear tug looks much less sick idea than the orbital cryogenic festival planned by any project. You should: build a nuclear tug with huge cryostats and docking ports in LEO; deliver water tanks (they can stay in LEO for decades); attach them to the tug; build the ship at the tug; slowly spiral the tug with attached water and ships to the outer limits of the Earthdom, say to the Moon orbit, with ion thrusters, powered by its nuke reactor; shut down the reactor; send the crew to the lunar hotel; send a servicing brigade from the Moon to check and prepare the systems; evacuate the brigade; engage the reactor full power, electrolyze the water, and store the LOX and LH in the tug's huge cryostats, being actively cooled by the now-low-power reactor; shut down the reactor; send the crew to the ship from the lunar hotel; on their arrival, pump the cryofuel from the tug cryostats into the ship's hydrolox booster propellant tanks; send somebody with a zippo to light; run from the very high Earth orbit, spending the possible minimum of cryofuel, as most part of the delta-V has been already provided by the tug reactor and ions, by delivering the ship and the fuel to the very high orbit (lifting it from the gravity well); spiral the tug back to the LEO, probably dropping the empty water tanks into the lunar crater, where the lunar workers will grab them and use for metal, and prepare the next Martian ship; return the jettisonned hydrolox booster to the Moon by the low-thrust solar-powered ions, and drop it into the same scrap crater. The same Martian ship is also a standard orbital station design, to be built for LEO, HEO, MoonO, LMartianO. Have a hypergolic (i.e. dense and storable) booster braker behind the ship to insert the LMartianO. Have four lateral hypergolic boosters around the ship to return from LMaO to the Earth. All of them are also an additional rad protection around the ship. Connect their fuel tanks to let any engine be out of order without mission failure. Attach the Gigantor-like solar panels radially. Separate any system of the ship into the Mir-like radially attached modules around the core module with crew, so they can shade it from radiation. Stick them radially, between the lateral boosters, so the whole structure looks 3d. Put them in two groups, front and rear, to have the habitat in between, shaded from every direction. Sover the whole assembly with lightweight honeycomb protective panels (anti-rad, anti-met, anti-sun). So, the ship will look like a rounded brick. To repurpose the design into the standard orbital station, just replace the lateral and the rear boosters with lateral and rear station modules and trusses. This design can be used for any LEO, HEO, interplanetary (including the Pluto) stations and ships, as in any case the travel time should not exceed two or three years in zero-g. When you have the Orion drive, attach it behind. The ship stays same. First of all: there is no such thing as "Martian flight", there is "study of Mars", requiring many flights. It's by orders of magnitude more complex problem than the lunar flights.

Calling both piece of paper and signs on it "letter" is cheating.

Banned for ambliguity.

Calling 911 to inform them that it was not a deja vu. It was a deja them.
