and plenty of generally informed people wouldn't have gotten the memo that it's not on youtube anymore, guaranteeing that many flock to the scam feeds masquerading as something official because there is no official feed to be found

It's almost certain that the fit will be made worse by adding a third data point. Not worth

this is proof that raptors are unreliable and ipso facto full duration burns are neccesary and like such as period comma

rain for the next two weeks...

Always has been

please stop baiting to this get thread locked

where is the turbo?

They've already had to disable most of the equipment because if power concerns. I'm sure they've got memory to spare

those by definition have no event horizons...

Multiple sources give 235km for the apogee and -50km for the perigee, so 7677m/s at apogee for the ship. The 7763m/s total velocity given for a circular orbit is is only 1% off this value. That could be just round off error or it could be you don't literally want a test vehicle to achieve orbit to allow for a planned deorbit at a specific region

and ignore all of the people that reply as well?

oh my goooooooood

cut SpaceX some slack; after all, we're making the same mistake over and over again right now

what about at -40°F?

This thread has approximately eight hours before it becomes solely a discussion on the Chinese Room problem Good luck

7.5 hours total That's a solid angle of .065 steradians, pretty big, comparable to your outstretched fist Assuming everything is in the same plane (which is not true at all but I don't want to do the real math), the angular diameter of Mars is 9% of the arc of the sky, so you'd be in some kind of eclipse 9% of the time. The Sun only has an angular diameter of .006 rads, so basically all of the time would be in a total clipse

whoa they're launching boats now??

yeah. point stands

"outdated" implies it was ever good to begin with

The US and USSR would race to be the first to land on a moon, and unless in this reality the Soviets were just behind America and could go for a landing on the second as a consolation price, the lower would give up while the winner went on to visit the other Moon just to run up the score

I can just barely read it without needing to out my phone in my face

can somebody please hit the jukebox it's acting up

At the risk of getting modded, can you please stop talking about the Raptor and its reliability all of the time?
