  1. South Korea says "very unlikely" that their launches on Soyuz will go ahead as planned https://spacenews.com/russian-sanctions-throw-south-korean-satellite-missions-into-uncertainty/
  2. liftoff and stage sep https://spaceflightnow.com/2022/03/01/atlas-5-av-095-goes-t-mission-status-center/
  3. Pretty much the only one, I wonder how ula will be affected since they used her for flying first stages sometimes
  4. between this and most of the worlds heavy/medium lvs being retired and replaced, I wonder what they can launch on other than falcon 9?
  5. The steel in your sink is expected to carry far less load than the starship. For sinks you may be able to get away with using as cast steel, but I would expect that they do at least some work hardening, not to mention they are probably using a special grade of steel
  6. The president of france has requested that ESA assemble a "high-level advisory group" composed primarily of "non space experts" to "look at various aspects of society" and "come up with more specific European targets and ambitions for manned space travel". In other words, he wants to establish a committee to develop future manned spaceflight related committees. https://spacenews.com/esa-to-set-up-committee-to-study-human-space-exploration-options/
  7. In the interview I posted, they say that it increases the opportunities for deorbiting quickly
  8. From the NASA spaceflight interview entire crew will be exposed to vaccum for EVA may use neutral bouancy facility, still in early stages of training science payloads still being decided one includes an implant into scott to measure cranial pressure before during and after flight not doing an expendable launch
  9. Kepler is heliocentric and deactivated, so that probably won't happen, and Hubble needs the robotic arm to keep the vehicles together
  10. Surprisingly, the equilibrium temperature assuming earthlike regolith is only 87c, hot enough to cook with, but a decent cooling system should keep you nice and raw, though a thick atmosphere could make things worse
  11. A small(~.25) warm planet has been found in orbit around proxima centuri https://www.sciencealert.com/a-new-planet-a-quarter-of-earth-s-mass-has-been-found-orbiting-the-nearest-star-to-the-sun
  12. The offending cruise ship from the other day has been identified as Royal Caribbean's Harmony of the Seas, definitely should have been capable of reading a NOTMAR, coasties are investigating. https://www.businessinsider.com/spacex-rocket-launch-royal-caribbean-cruise-ship-coast-guard-investigation-2022-2
  13. Decent chance the second stage from the DISCOVR launch back in 2015 will hit the moon in the coming months https://www.projectpluto.com/temp/dscovr.htm
  14. Liftoff and stage sep, commentators appear to have some sort of audio issues
  15. Artemis 4 will not include a moon landing, to busy setting up the gateway or something. Wonder what uses they will come up with for lunar starship in the meantime https://spacenews.com/nasa-foresees-gap-in-lunar-landings-after-artemis-3/
  16. There is also the risk of messing things up or damaging other things while doing the repair, while they already had a solution to the issue
  17. And confirmed deployments on all 7 payloads
  18. Orbit launch today in ~20 min https://spaceflightnow.com/2022/01/13/virgin-orbit-above-the-clouds-mission-status-center/
  19. October's launch failure traced back to improperly secured helium tanks in the 3rd stage lox tanks https://spacenews.com/design-flaw-blamed-for-failed-debut-of-south-koreas-new-satellite-launcher/
  20. Tldr the warp drive paper was from the same guy as the EM drive, and all he definitely proved was that the potential curves between his apparatus and the warp drive are a similar shape. https://bigthink.com/starts-with-a-bang/no-warp-bubble/
  21. Yes, the two types of spacecraft, radar observation and space based weapons.
