Once they have built a mass driver on the Moon to throw the minerals, this will run much faster. They will be able to build a circular Sea Chinese Wall around the sea. -

Flagella. The thing in the middle is catching the stars to eat them. And the galaxy arms are a whirl caused by this thing to raise the mud and make this easy. We are living at the hungry unicellular, and floating around it in a whirl. But the unicellular itself is floating towards some bigger thing's throat known as Great Attractor. Lovecraft blesses this. -

As the Tselinides meteor shower is still in orbit, will they use a net to deorbit every part of the ISS? -
Banned for country singing.

Why ban Jo? The Ancient Romans loved caps. Probably because it's hard to switch it in stone. Banned for being unaware of that. P.S. What's that? Some country folk group?

The wish was fighting and has protected her soup, Choose anything instead, please. Waiter! Why should I smell every bottle of vine? Do they turn sour in your shed, or what? Why do I never have to smell Pepsi or Sprite?

Things Adult Men Do That I Don't Understand...

Also a problem are the old-style flywheels on the water crane which you need to grab and rotate. Instead of them, there are modern handles which you can operate by wrist or elbow, And also the modern on-wall elbow buttons to flush the toilet itself. (Used a decade before the covid hype.) Like this one two (small and large flush). -

Start the gravity turn as soon as possible. Real rockets do it almost from launch. Keep the rocket nose at the current velocity vector. Ideally, the angle of attack should be always zero. To achieve that, find the optimal initial pitch angle and take it asap, while the velocity and thus the air drag are low. (see p.1.) (Always irl, but hardly in KSP due to much smaller planets). Finish acceleration exactly in apoapsis, no pause and apoapsis burn. Find the optimal initial thrust-to-weight ratio for you rocket. Irl space rockets have ~1.2, ICBM ~2. In KSP probably 2. The 2nd stage is 0.8 .. 1.2. Set the full thrust and don't change it. The underthrusted engine means carrying excessive mass of the engine when you could use a weaker and a lighter one. Attach a fuel tank to your test rocket as a test payload. Looking at the rest of the fuel in it, adjust your stage fuel and payload mass.

There is the only planet in the Solar System, the Jupiter. It contains 2/3 of the non-Solar mass, ~85% (from memory) of angular momentum, and it has cleared the neighborhood from random trash like the neptunes and earthes. Saturn is a dwarf Jupiter, a Jupiteroid, or a Jupiterino.

For Questions That Don't Merit Their Own Thread
kerbiloid replied to Skyler4856's topic in Science & Spaceflight
Blood contains iron. Originally the hematogen mass production started in 1920s after a decade of wars, due to the problem of mass children dystrophy and anemia, as a cheap way to replenish the iron (required for red blood cells), proteins, and calories. As the bovine blood is a cheap and mass producing waste of the meat industry, and it's rich with iron, that was the way. Once started, this good practice still continues and hopefully will. P.S. Also, it just helps to cure the natural thirst for blood. Sometimes, for a whole day. P.P.S. Probably the origin of the technology is lying in the Swiss-Mongolian traditions to make iron candies out of enemy blood. -

10 Was ABBA equal to 43962 intentionally? P.S. ABBA = 43962 = 2 * 3 * 17 * 431. This should mean something important. Probably.
