I hate it when people mock and underestimate people during an argument, and when they lose, leave the argument with an insult. People need to stray away from their sneaky tactics to offend others and instead be respectfull. Offending the opposer just increase the tensions, and the opposer might be able to slam dunk you, but oh, you already left. Actually a really smart tactic, but not the best. Nobody is going to like you for doing that. Im talking primarily about Twitter here, home of arguments and flamewars. I once decided to go on twitter to see if there is anything new in the news, but all i saw was scorching flamewars. Just go to any tweet NASA posts, and the first few replies that pop up is 'NASA LIES THEY HIDE UFO! WAEST OF MY TAX MONEY! EVERYONE WHO DISAGREES IS A SHEEPLE SHMUCK!' Surprisingly enough, not much Flat Earthers. Its either 'NASA hides UFO's' or 'Spaceflight is a waste of money'.

That is the Richard Dawkins definition of meme, but not everyone agrees with that. The Richard Dawkins definition of meme is too broad and very vague. The other definiton of meme is an image, video, piece of text, etc., typically humorous in nature, that is copied and spread rapidly by Internet users, often with slight variations. But not even this is a definition everyone agrees with. Again, memes change rapidly, and so does the definition.
-
I do know what im talking about, I think its just the fact that nobody knows the exact definiton of a meme and it differs between people. Its a little bit like the 'Airplane on a Treadmil' problem.

Just because you were around when it first started doesn't neccesarily mean you know more about it. Goddard was the first man to make a working liquid fueled rocket, but i doubt he knew much about spaceflight as we do right now. Im not saying he is stupid, but he lived in a period of time before spaceflight became a big and broad thing, Goddard didn't know how the ISS was built, but we do. Same with memes, memes were a funny little thing in the past when they first started, but aren't as widespread and broad as they are now. Another thing to note is that memes evolve extremely rapidly nowadays and 'the first meme created' is now either seen as a funny coincidence or an unfunny normie meme because they don't really apply to the meme culture of today. The meme in the article you showed is just a funny coincidence, not an actual meme-meme, because they don't really spread like wildfire. Another meme people think is the first meme is the dancing baby meme, but that is a prime example of a meme that has become stale. Think of a meme like the corpse of an animal and the viewers as scavengers, back then, memes lasted a bit longer because there were less viewers, but now, there are litterly billions of people munching down on internet memes. Also, i am referring to the memes we often see on the internet, not the Richard Dawkins definition of meme.

Yes, if they want to send humans to the Moon and back they would have to use ISRU for return. It makes me think, if they are going to send humans to the Moon, are they going to make their own manned deep-space capsule, build a commercial space gateway for other commercial spaceflight buddies to join the fun or are they going to use the already existing ISS.

Your boy has entered the wonderous world of the Internet and its spicy memes that older people don't understand. They are not dangerous, they enlighten.

I made a little bit of a concept sketch of what i think Blue Moon should look like, along with some payload ideas. Blue Moon is intended to do look for water on the South Pole and return samples according to wikipedia. 4500kg, or even 6000kg is not enough payload capacity to do manned landings unless they do an Apollo reboot or find out a way to make a direct return capsule of that mass.
-
But we can however estimate its size by the spacecraft itself. The module on top that i think is the Command/Avionics module looks to big in proportion to be of a big lander. If it were to be big like the Apollo lander, that module would have been alot smaller and thinner in proportion to lander, and it would almost look like it wouldn't have any top module at all, because the Avionics systems would be small enough to be hidden inside the propulsion module. There also seem to be no cargo bay at all, suggesting the lander presented in the image doesn't have any significant payload capacity unlike the 4-6 tons Blue Moon could carry. The top module likely also is not a payload, considering it doesn't look like anything practical for a lunar base, and has no arms and to deploy it on the surface. Another thing to note is the bolts on top wich are quite big and heavy looking in proportion to the lander itself. Something like that would not be used on a big Apollo-sized lander but would on a Moon Express-sized lander. There is also the big possibilty the artist was just a little lazy, made a generic moon lander, slapped some logo's on, and called it a day. Its 3AM and i have school tomorrow, goodnight.

The curse, the curse! I think its working! Its working, Muahahahaha! I should make a painting of that monster! I can't make paintings at home, and i would have to sneak into art class when there are no 7th graders. I just happend to be very lucky today.

2018 is just a year. An event that takes place in a specific year doesn't have to go through an entire year, from January 1st to December 31st. If there is no specific date specified that means it can happend anytime this year. even if it becomes free on December 31st at 11:59PM, that still means it will be available for free this year. A glitch is a sudden, usually temporary malfunction in or fault of equipment, according to google. I don't think something not happending during a period of time you expect it to be is a glitch. I think you just have to wait, i read a few articles that state the 'Save the World' will be available for free in a few months. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/tech/gaming/705581/Fortnite-Save-the-World-FREE-codes-Epic-Games-good-news-release-date-Battle-Royale-Switch http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2018/05/28/fortnite-save-the-world-free-codes/ https://www.express.co.uk/entertainment/gaming/965848/Fortnite-Save-the-World-free-codes Just be patient.

Procedural Parts. Practical, but ugly.

Im not sure if this is for SLS...

Its so that gods can easily grab them and take them were ever they want to send them. So its simulair to bowling balls .

The artist representation of BO's moon lander is afwul. I don't know how big this is supposed to be but it looks like something that can't carry any significant payload and should be launched on an Electron, not a Glenn. Im pretty sure their first moon lander is going to be big, their only orbital rocket is too massive for a small lander.

Paintings! I made these to see if i can still paint in the first place, im pretty happy with the results, can't wait to make the real deal.

Chinese Space Program (CNSA) & Ch. commercial launch and discussion

Are we going to see Crew Dragon do a docking with it ? Probably not, but its still cool to think about. Are the Chinese docking ports different than the ISS ones? If Dragon were to come to the ISS, they might need to pull a docking adapter out of its trunk. -
I have never seen a post this great in 50 years. Is this a block 5?

Make sure you have good grip on the surface you are drawing on by pressing your hand (you are drawing with) a little on the surface your drawing on. Make sure you don't slip. Nobody can draw straight lines, or at least not many people. You can use a ruler or other straight objects as a sort of guide, or use grid paper. You can also just make draw the line very quickly, to minimize the amount of imperfections i the drawings.

No, what do you mean, change my avatar, i only do that every 2 drawings.

Sort of reminds me of those candy bracelet things
