November 18, 20232 yr ^I thought the video of the MECO, separation, and Starship ignition looked beautiful. Made the hair on my head stand up!
November 19, 20232 yr In any case, it's great they managed to lift off, separate, and flip the booster. Next launch shouldn't be too far away now. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

March 14, 20241 yr too bad no visuals for the 'crash' I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future.

April 11, 20241 yr 7 hours ago, Chilloutman said: wow what a headline, gravity free my ass if it just floats above magnets, its really nothing new It's an improvement over previous systems: Quote Their new system improves on previous iterations by foregoing the need for any external power. Magnetic levitation conventionally loses energy through kinetic energy, or "eddy damping." Graphite is also an extremely powerful electrical conductor and loses energy by having electrical currents flow through it. That's why magnetic levitation has yet to emerge as a way to develop advanced sensors.
April 12, 20241 yr 17 hours ago, InsaneCommander said: It's an improvement over previous systems: yeah not impressed, levitating two magnets above each other does not require external source either.

April 27, 20241 yr NASA's Advanced Solar Sail Has Successfully Deployed in Space Quote On Tuesday a RocketLab Electron rocket launched NASA's new Advanced Composite Solar Sail System. It aims to test the deployment of large solar sails in low-earth orbit and on Wednesday, NASA confirmed they had successfully deployed a 9 metre sail. It is made from flexible polymer and carbon fibre materials to create a stiffer, lighter alternative to existing support structure designs.

May 8, 20241 yr Using algorithms to decode the complex phonetic alphabet of sperm whales Quote ...the research shows that sperm whales codas, or short bursts of clicks that they use to communicate, vary significantly in structure depending on the conversational context, revealing a communication system far more intricate than previously understood. Nine thousand codas, collected from Eastern Caribbean sperm whale families observed by the Dominica Sperm Whale Project, proved an instrumental starting point in uncovering the creatures' complex communication system. Alongside the data gold mine, the team used a mix of algorithms for pattern recognition and classification, as well as on-body recording equipment. It turned out that sperm whale communications were indeed not random or simplistic, but rather structured in a complex, combinatorial manner. Just, wow. I can imagine it's like trying to talk to a completely alien race. Where do we even begin? "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats."
