    That's not a gun.... THIS a gun! E: Ninja'd! But it'll take out a whale too!

    BttF-inspired plates... "OUTAHERE" "OUTASPCE" I know, I know, they're a bit too long, just do a custom stamping. Squeezing 9 letters would be even better, "OUTASPACE"

    In the first Star Wars novel, Splinter of the Mind's Eye, Luke was able to adjust his lightsaber down to short and thin, good for jimmying doors. He was also able to charge it from a blaster power pack.

    Don’t forget the can of “Perri-Air” in the cup holder License plate: “Outward” Bumper sticker: “My other car is a Dragon “

    While incredible energy density and future space flight go hand-in-hand, being able to melt a blast door fairly quickly requires a stupendous amount of energy to be packed into that lightsaber handle. Oh wait, (waves hand) “the crystal is channeling the Force to up the power output. Also, these are not droids you’re looking for” Also, the relevant xkcd hasn’t been posted here yet?

    So you build (yet another) launch/landing site in Africa somewhere. Which is what I meant by “logistically convenient”
  8. StrandedonEarth
    Why RTLS? Beef up the heat shielding (inflatable heat shield?) and land it wherever it is ballistically and logistically convenient.

    I wonder how BFR would do with (2, 4,6,8?) F9’s as strap-on boosters. Maybe it could get a nearly full tanker into orbit.....

    "I was sad that I had a Pentium 100 until I met the man with a 486." - Me, circa 1999ish

    They posted it beside the BulgariaSat landing video that was a joke

    Much easier to look on the surface around the plume, and/or collect what is raining down around it. Getting a lander in on (a very kerbal typo) the surface in a plume zone would be a scientific bonanza.

    Well, you probably shouldn’t ask her if she wants to see your rocket, unless you managed to get into a conversation with her about model rockets... E. or LEGO rockets I was sad that I had a Pentium 100, until I met a man with a 486...

    Never a good sign....

    Have you considered a clip from Countdown, by Rush? Perhaps at this spot...

    So that's what took them so long, certifying the car as space-worthy and figuring out how to mate it to the payload adapter. Edit: Actually, that's probably how they killed time waiting for the pads to be ready.

    Sounds like at least two people need to be fired. Too much vodka?

    Makes one wonder if a sensor didn’t get jammed in upside-down again....

    Wait, what? They’re doing the static fire at the Kerbal Spa....?... oh whoops never mind

    So I dug a little deeper and Google brought me this: https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2015/08/07/430149677/eye-shapes-of-the-animal-world-hint-at-differences-in-our-lifestyles I guess the shape of goat pupils stand out because their eyes are lighter colored.
  22. StrandedonEarth
    The F-1, of course, because, well....

    What trips me out about goats is the dumbbell-shaped pupils. Do sheep or any other animals have the same pupils?

    Maybe have the crash message depend on what the vessel type was set to. Maybe even have a new vessel type: "Impactor"
  25. StrandedonEarth
    Is this more on topic?
