This hit HBO this weekend so I finally got around to watching it. It wasn't that bad at all. It was a bit dialogue heavy and a bit draggy at points but overall it had a decent story. I barely noticed the skin in the WW outfit scenes, the movie was more a story than hot chick running about but...

6 weeks since that super freaky cold snap. There is still a black cat in my work shop that I have yet to touch or pet. It won't leave but it won't let me touch it either. It prefers meaty bits with gravy and it enjoys late night strolls, howling and playing with the other cats of mine through...

With a radioactive decay power source and ya, at that point you are putting millions into communications and software and all sorts of shit to send back pictures of a spacesuit driving a car through space. As for the car, I've seen people claim radiation will eat it up in a year or two, but who...

Wasn't sure where the fuck to put this. What am I watching here? Is this a dislocated( hah? ) heart?

It's been a few weeks since Twitch did something really fucking stupid. I was starting to get worried.

Oh it is a somewhat solid game. It still had quite a few bugs that sometimes you got dealt a shitty hand on a new game in piece/part placements and a few glitches graphically. I found my best course of action was to let them know I didn't approve. They are working on a paid DLC and then another...

That is why I don't think we'll see more than 15 launches compared to the shuttle STS 135 missions. What I do expect is this will carry us for the next 12-15 years and just like SpaceX which now declares Falcon as "finished" and maybe only a few revisions on the Falcon Heavy so they can start...

Ya this. I don't expect we'll see EM-100s like the shuttle program. We'll be lucky to see EM-15. EM-1 is the moon launch, EM-2 manned moon mission and from there it can go more moon or first mars. It is mostly just important that we have the capability and do the moon/mars initially then after...

You keep saying this but there is a manned Orion mission in 2021 using it and Mars missions after that. It will need that payload for Mars. Just like the BFR LEO payload is not the same after orbit. You NEED a rocket that size and capability to carry the fuel needed to reach the moon. That 130...

Sad but true. A few key differences here. THE BFR is more like the space shuttle than a rocket. I guess technically it is a rocket but you get my meaning and if you don't then realize the BFR as suggested now is a 1 stage vehicle. It is the entire package. It launches into space as a unit...

Millions of years from now, some green man will be asking his multigendered mutant wife on some distant planet if there is other life out there when a Tesla car falls from the sky and kills them both.

The only advantage is that it has twice+ the payload of any other nation currently, including Russia. Private space programs is the greatest thing ever both for advancement and my Murica freedom, but the US like every other major country still needs a space program that is ran by the government...

Amazing isn't it? They look fairly small until you see them on the drone ship or pad with people around them. All that gogo juice takes up some room.

That video of the failures had several that also ran out of propellant in the past. I wonder if it was due to the longer burn and distance than the other 2( miscalculation or maybe the burn was more important than saving fuel for landing during mission ). The center core burned for about a...

I've already seen people on social media say the car with the planet was some decent CGI but not movie quality( I shit you not )

It is but I am not sure SpaceX has a compatible capsule for that. Dragon was more designed for supply and crew to LEO as far as I know and is fairly small. Orion however is already almost fully assembled for the unmanned mission. If Musk put all the the resources into a capsule to take advantage...

Lockheed actually is building the SLS capsule and it is now officially out of design and under construction. SLS EM-1 mission to Moon( my bad I got mars on the brain ) is next year with the manned EM-2 mission in 2021. To clarify the unmanned capsule is almost done( payload ), engines have...

They did the 2nd fire of the engine tech Friday, that is the majority of it. As for payload, NASA has started on the Orion capsule finally. The mission is first the moon then Mars. Just like SpaceX.

Elon Musk says SpaceX to focus on BFR following Falcon Heavy launch Looks like he feels pretty solid about the Falcon design and functions now.

He is a mad man! The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy book is in the glove box. Stupid space car facts.

BFR (rocket) - Wikipedia Someone will have a odd job. What do you do for a living? Well I am about to start my 2 years away as a rocket mechanic. Oh really, overseas? No on Mars.

I've drove down some highways like that. Just nothing but darkness and the road was way to long. Specifically in Kansas. Fuck that state. I feel bad for Starman, I hope he is playing Radar Love.

Yes this. While the heavy has great payload weight the capsule size wasn't all that great. Sure it is enough for a crew compartment and deep space supply but certain things like say a generator/reactor and oxygen machines and water condensers and god knows what else you can't really fold up. If...

The BFR is as planned will have 20T more than the SLS Enhanced. That only translates into about 2 more tons by the time MARS though. The real advantage to it is the girth. It won't only have the weight capability but the SIZE capability will be much larger, making for a better trip for sure...

The FH will be quite capable of supply runs to MARS and at a much lower cost than the SLS. NASA pretty much requires so many supply missions before advancing contracts anyways so it'll be a perfect money maker for them while at the same time doing it much cheaper than NASA can. SpaceX wants to...

It is for SpaceX. It is one thing to send shit over time to Mars and supply vessels. The SLS has much more load though and will be much more capable of not only sending people to Mars but bringing them back home on the same unit. The SLS will be able to send twice as much to MARS or almost 40...

My understanding was this. It burned basically a full minute longer which is a long time at the speeds it was going that far into the mission. Stress and other issues were also a concern The fact they called the center core lost so early on makes me wonder if they scrubbed the attempt based on...

NASA has the shuttle replacement SLS I linked above doing it's first launch to the moon and back next year with a even much larger rocket with way more payload. The SLS will be deep space. The Falcon Heavy still won't be useless though, but SpaceX doesn't have the funding to do many deep space...

First car launched to space. First production car to break the sound barrier. First car in space. First synced booster landing. First x9000 That is a big fucking rocket, but there is another. The NASA SLS had successful testing and still on schedule for next year. It makes the Falcon Heavy look...

Upper level winds is what is causing the delays.

Those veins sticking out of the Falcon booster dicks gives me a hardon.

I'm hoping for a salt water aquarium with nuclear heating device and lasers. Lasers on the sharks head. Why you pissin in my cherios

Those were the good ole days. It was before internet was available and if you did have a modem it was 2600 baud local BB type shit. No walkthrus tempting you. You solved the damn problem if you wanted to move on. Back when computers made minds great again.

Also we don't know it is a fully functional car. No telling what is under those panels hood and rear. Would be awesome if it was a transformer. You just never really know with Musk.

I started off on Tandy CoCos but Kings Quest, LSL and Ultimas was my first real "PC" games. Special place in my heart, even if I do only load them up and play for 5 minutes before the interface and graphics make me puke.

It is the as far as we know part that gets me. SpaceX has a history of testing everything it can and while they tell you 90% of what they are going to try to do before it happens, often they got a few things they don't mention until later because they are not mission critical and looks poorly if...

I look forward to all the future scifi movies needing the car to survive somehow and risky harpooning missions floating in space to nab it.
