The crane was a separate vehicle on one of the elevators, I believe that the Essex class would be replenished by another ship, and didn't usually use seaplanes

Kosmos 2560, the payload from the most recent Angara launch has deorbited, possibly by design.

in some of the later books there was a force powered sith ship, and jedi would use the force to guide bombs as a stealth weapon

As far as I know, Green and blue hydrogen refer to the production methods rather than the inherent properties of the substance, should be virtually identical if processed correctly

Maybe an open cycle nuclear rocket, that way the metal heats itself https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_core_reactor_rocket

Speaking of solar panel deployment failures, JPSS-2, another Northrop Grumman built spacecraft, is having trouble with its solar panel. https://spacenews.com/atlas-5-launches-weather-satellite-reentry-tech-demo-mission/

cygnus is in orbit, one of the solar arrays has failed to deploy https://spacenews.com/cygnus-solar-array-fails-to-deploy/

So the two of the groups that lost out on the last round because of high cost and programmatic risks are now pushing for nuclear rockets on their next bid?

Going with J1

Is this the first time an Angara has deployed a functioning payload, I'm surprised there wasn't more commotion about this?

NASA tv is providing commentary as well

They are prioritizing DART images since they are essential for mission success and cant be stored and downloaded after the impact

Video is live

Where would the energy to do this come from? In a normal turbojet almost all of the energy involved is from the heat of burning fuel, if you take energy from the fuel away to power the ionization system the heat taken out will not go towards the turbojets thrust, and per the second law of thermodynamics there is no way for the energy added by the ionization system to be more than that taken out from the burning fuel

with this you might as well just have it make the uber strong semiliquid metal into a space elevator and then retract it when the craft is at the top

This explains the color of objects at high temperature https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black-body_radiation

Peter beck did a zoom call at the small sat conference, some highlights were that electron can only do 150kg to leo on paper but was able to get 320kg on the CAPSTONE launch, also lunar photon is still operating and he said "we’ll have a crack at doing something cool with it and see how far into the solar system we can get with it.” https://spacenews.com/beck-capstone-demonstrates-feasibility-of-low-cost-interplanetary-smallsats/

Is this real or did someone edit the HTML on their site?

This seems like an ion aircraft. These have many of the same issues as Ion engines on spacecraft. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion-propelled_aircraft

The CEO was indicted and arrested for securities fraud, but was acquitted and then deported, the report in my recent post has a half page footnote blaming a conspiracy involving a disgruntled investor, DHS, the Government of New Mexico and his ex-wife.

they only gave that video a footnote but for some reason decided to spend a page and a half picking apart a Tim Dodd video

looks like ARCA is still around and is now building an eco rocket heavy that looks like someone tried to save funds in career mode by skipping the unlock for vertical decouplers, and financed by some sort of crypto scheme. https://www.amiexploration.com/_files/ugd/b4b6cb_0e96270b6f1f4828ba51284ca4e15860.pdf

Tianlian relay (CSNA equivalent of TDRS) launched to GTO out of Xichang on an LM-3b on Wednesday, wonder if we will get footage of the boosters hitting the ground. https://spaceflightnow.com/2022/07/13/china-launches-tianlian-data-relay-satellite/

Are there any details on this rocket available in English, ie what kind of fuel it uses, and what are the future plans for this agencies launch program?
