everyone that works for spacex has to be both an American citizen and receive a background check, rockets are weapons after all. its a good filter but the chinese are still stealing our tech.
If you go to the Houston Space Center and look at the NASA crew photos on the wall you can see the exact time the space program stopped being about space missions and starting being a PR stunt to do muppets in space.
Is there any video of the entire process from inside the shuttle? Like documented evidence from liftoff all the way to the time they leave upper atmosphere and dock with ISS? Btw ISS is travelling at 17500 miles per hour, speed of sound is 767 miles per hour. ISS is almost 23 times faster than speed of sound. How does the shuttle reach such speed and then docks in the near vacuum with no issues whatsoever?
It' not like they shoot the rocket straight up. They go at angle so they can get at rougly the same orbit, which means they will have the same velocity. Then from there they fine tune the orbit to get closer to the spacestation. Then they dock.
Yeah, I know how it works, what I'm saying is its bullshit. The reason you see rockets go at an angle, and you should notice that that angle is always towards the sea/ocean, is because no rocket goes out in outer space, it just goes over the sea and then either dropped into it, or brought down and recycled, kinda like what Musk has came up with.
Because there is no air in the way to cause friction and response,, “Sound” after all in the interaction of an object with air, pushing the air,away. And remember the people in the ship will have NO feeling of movement since they are going as fast as the ship,
If they were both moving at 1 mile an hour in space on the same arc of travel ... do you think it would be easier?
Anyways to answer your question I’d say : computers.
It shows in the video they “waited” or tailed each other until the sun no longer could interfere with an IR sensor so they could link with the same sensor on the ISS and then the computers could figure all further math required to make the dock perfect.
If space is what they claim it to be, IE vacuum, then no it wouldn't. However reaching 1mph and 17500mph are 2 different things! There have been a lot of questionable videos released by NASA themselves, that put the whole "Space travel" sham in place. Try to research bubbles in space. Official nasa videos show bubbles forming and moving upwards (in outer space, or during a space walk). With no official nasa rebuttal.
Elledar, You can see the iss with a regular telescope. You think they just threw that up there to appease any one with an optic so they can continue pretending we have space ability?
Just because you can see something in the sky, doesn't mean it is what you are being told it is. I know we can see something up there with the telescope, this doesn't mean there are people on that something.
Yes, there is something up there that can be spotted from down here, I am not questioning that. What I am questioning is your belief that there are indeed people on that something you see up there.
Bro. It is ok to question anything. But this are private companies, with lots of normal people working there. And yes there was full video from start to finish. It all makes sense from a physics standpoint. Maybe is ok for someone to think that the moon landing was faked. But this is not. Just accept it.
Just because these are private companies doesn't mean anything. All those people there working on what they think is docking sequence for shuttle and ISS, but all of them are compartmentalised and they are just looking at the numbers on the screen. They can think they are doing what they believe they are doing. But in reality they could be lied to just like the rest. Have you seen videos taken from ISS? Total bullshit CGI.
You'd demerit the achievements of an American agency working from American soil showcasing American talent and brainpower, in a forum dedicated towards American accolades? Questioning everything under the sun is going to lead you to nothing but frustration, friend. A more determined and smarter man would work hard to study aerospace from college, study to be an engineer/pilot, and either directly be involved in building these complex systems, or be an astronaut themselves. I doubt you have any basis to question without even partaking in the system.
That is an argument from authority, which is a fallacy. I am not demeriting the achievements, I am putting in question their validity. Just because I am not building space shuttles, doesn't mean I can not research it. And how can you says I can not question something without partaking in it. I can question and condemn paedophilia without partaking in it...
Lets break down this a bit, American agency? All of the scientists were german, who were taken from germany after the war under the operation paper clip, under the command of Von Braun (Who was a nazi, taken from germany after the war). Working on american soil, is the only true statement you made there so far. American talent and brainpower, more these days, but not at the time of founding. Forum for American approval? Well this is why I am questioning the validity of nasa. Because I think it is the pinnacle of criminality to be paid $56 million a day, just to show some sub par hollywood cartoons and claim them as reality.
ISS is in the low Earth orbit, at about 408 km. Earth's atmosphere technically stretches out as far as 630,000 km. Even outer space is not completely empty.
As for the speeds involved, there's a reason they employ legions of eggheads to figure this stuff out, it takes complex math to pull it off. That's what rocket science is. Also, computers.
Outer space is 3 particles per meter cubed. At the height of 408 km the atmosphere can be neglected for mathematical purposes.
Yes, and those eggheads are strictly compartmentalised, so they themselves don't know shit they are doing apart from crunching the numbers that are in front of them.
Only when GEOTUS remains in office for 4 more years. If not, you will see a complete redistribution of budget to pay for all the free shit the rats are promising.
This makes me think this site needs subs.... memes, jokes, serious, conspiracy, locals, UK, France, Australia, Canada... this site is perfect to build a global movement.
I'm sure everyone is different, but the interface on those sites suck for me. The format of TD is why I like this- very easy to read. Parlor is like Twitter and it's hard to follow a conversation that well.
I did see a lot of naked Hunter Biden on parler, though lol
Just tell him he'll have the honor of being the first person to see Mars. I mean, all we need to do is get Magoo into a Falcon Heavy launch and it's done =)
I always laugh whenever articles or news anchors says "humanity's latest space vehicle". No. This is America's latest space vehicle. you guys didn't help on this group project
Yes, stewardesses have been shown to have increased rates of breast cancer. This is probably true of anyone that spends a lot of time at high altitudes. Spending hours in the air gives radiation exposure equivalent to getting some x-rays.
Delta was also giving their employees uniforms treated with formaldehyde in the last few years. Apparently this is a practice done with some uniforms to keep them looking new. That was also causing health issues.
"The National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements reported that aircrew have the largest average annual effective dose (3.07 mSv) of all US radiation-exposed workers."
Yeah, I couldn't either. Just more micro-10 , 11 etc being launched.
That looks interesting but it seems to be a satellite to detect radiation rather than a biology study. Still important to quantify the rad levels though.
a lot of scientists believe that it's a double-whammy bonus points type situation, microgravity plus random radiation minus the earths natural barriers
Lol patience is not one of the virtues of the MAGA crowd.
For those asking about the door, there's a huge list of checks that have to be done both inside and outside of the capsule including temperature, pressure, equipment checks, a bunch of procedures that take time to complete. Also this is only the second time this has been done with this capsule so there's a lot of documentation and photos being taken and sent to SpaceX and Houston. Estimated time for this part was 2 hours so everything is going according to schedule. This isn't like your normal airplane pulling up to the gate.
For sure, he would just end up sinking it a whole bunch of money into government bureaucracies instead of pushing private companies to push the envelope of space exploration, like Trump has done an excellent job doing.
I was stationed at Cecil Field in an A-7 squadron doing FOD walkdown the morning Challenger blew up. We could see the contrails it was a sick feeling. Went to Readyroom and TV was covering it. Ironically one of our pilots had been accepted to NASA and he said this meant the program would likely shut down for a long time and thus he would likely never get to go as they wouldn’t need as many even when it started back up way later. And sure enough he got cancelled. Felt so bad for him. I’ll never forget that day.
In case you were curious, NASA has the strictest quarantine measures on the planet due to COVID. There is 0 chance anyone in space is sick because it would be potentially catastrophic were it to happen.
I stayed up till the wee hours last night to watch the docking and entry. Fascinating stuff.
Why is everyone in that screenshot Chinese?
Oriental, yes. Not necessarily Chinese.
The photographer had to wait till a moment when there were no White people around. Otherwise Racist, Racist, Racist, Reeeeeeeee...
everyone that works for spacex has to be both an American citizen and receive a background check, rockets are weapons after all. its a good filter but the chinese are still stealing our tech.
Boldly go, and never stop!
China soon to sent up corona-virus to see how it behaves in space
America being great is never off topic!

You are right, but that doesn't address the issue of ridiculous speeds.
Speed is relative.
If they were both moving at 1 mile an hour in space on the same arc of travel ... do you think it would be easier?

Time to go to the Moon?

only if we reveal this voter fraud for what it is

Are you suggesting a conservative/free-thought alternative to reddit?
I wasn’t but wow - what an amazing idea!
That's exactly what I hope this place turns into.
Where fuck else can I talk conservative issues, without getting a hounded by people that let the MSM think for them.
I hope this site blows up
Gab is pretty good.
There is also parler.

Yea, Gab can be a bit rough at times.
Off topic but turns out Pedes love Space!
it's an expensive but effective deportation area
Deport deport deport
It's becoming clear as to why Elon is in such a hurry to colonize Mars.
Because if we lose this battle for Earth, then Mars is our only escape.
don't worry pede - we will get them to potty train soon enough
All hands this will be a high G maneuver.. prepare for flip and burn...the United States, someday.
The SpaceX mission control is in LA... that's kinda expected cause of how blue that state is.
What makes it all the more funny is Florida decided to go with Florida Man Covid Policy of "BURN THE MASKS!".
I'm planning to send Joe Biden into space in a Tesla. We don't have enough money for return fuel though.
I think we should give all the Dems including the squad a one way trip to the sun.
Just tell him he'll have the honor of being the first person to see Mars. I mean, all we need to do is get Magoo into a Falcon Heavy launch and it's done =)
Keep the lesbians off the ship this time.
One step closer to that Space Force
and just like that, Russia/kazahkstan lost 400Million dollars a year to 'be on standby'
I always laugh whenever articles or news anchors says "humanity's latest space vehicle". No. This is America's latest space vehicle. you guys didn't help on this group project
It's not called envy anymore, it's called 'social justice".
CONGRATS SPACE X!
Finally.
Ponytails in space, whoa!
Thank you Elon Musk :)
Very cool of you!
🎵 "AMERICA, DOCK YEAH!" 🎵
Fuck ISIS!
...wait, what?
i wonder how many of these guys have high cancer rates from all that exposure beyond the atmosphere
the secret to space travel will be radiation resistance
We'll become immune to it if we can survive in space for about 10 generations ;/ - we may not even be human anymore thereafter.
ISS is below the Van Allen belts, the additional radiation exposure is not as high as you'd think.

check this shit out this is crazy
i'm pretty sure i've seen studies about airline workers having increased cancer rates just from being up in the sky...
Yes, stewardesses have been shown to have increased rates of breast cancer. This is probably true of anyone that spends a lot of time at high altitudes. Spending hours in the air gives radiation exposure equivalent to getting some x-rays.
Delta was also giving their employees uniforms treated with formaldehyde in the last few years. Apparently this is a practice done with some uniforms to keep them looking new. That was also causing health issues.
I don't think they pass through the radiation bands.
Nvm, they do, but very shortly and very low radiation doses.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=NEwMM0REZJQ
https://www.nasa.gov/vision/space/livinginspace/09may_mysteriouscancer.html
I'm no expert, but that doesn't sound like good news. Hazard pay please.
I was reading somewhere about airline workers being "radiation workers"
Makes sense, as it's our atmosphere's job to reflect off the suns radiation, and there is less of it between you and the sun up there.
https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/topics/aircrew/cosmicionizingradiation.html
You dont have to go through the radiation bands to get messed up.. here's some random article about concerns https://phys.org/news/2014-02-microgravity-exposure-health-astronauts.html#:~:text=Astronauts%20floating%20weightlessly%20in%20the%20International%20Space%20Station,exposure%20add%20up%20to%20pose%20serious%20health%20risks.
Ooh, didn't know about the micro gravity altering gene expression.
Any idea how the micro 7 study turned out?
i cant find anything about it. only that they were awarded a contract https://wccftech.com/spacexs-multimillion-dollar-nasa-contract-to-let-agency-study-dangerous-solar-radiation/
Yeah, I couldn't either. Just more micro-10 , 11 etc being launched.
That looks interesting but it seems to be a satellite to detect radiation rather than a biology study. Still important to quantify the rad levels though.
Cool info for me to look into though. Thanks man.
I know i'm in over my head with a lot of this, but it seems like a legitimate concern i suppose
I think at this altitude bone density loss is the bigger risk for these guys, but I'm sure there are people who know a lot more about it than me.
https://www.nasa.gov/vision/space/livinginspace/09may_mysteriouscancer.html
a lot of scientists believe that it's a double-whammy bonus points type situation, microgravity plus random radiation minus the earths natural barriers

To borrow a joke from /r/spacex when someone said it takes so long to open a hatch someone replied
"Clearly you didnt watch lost".

Not sure how that applies to this, but very true regardless!
Bush ended the shuttle program
5 minutes away.
Sure.
Screw you downvoters. It was 21 minutes after I posted this until they came through.
Eat a bag of dicks.
Love to see private companies to take on space exploration! It's one way to beat the Chicoms!
That's why we gotta make sure we keep Trump in there or Biden will give up all our gains made.
For sure, he would just end up sinking it a whole bunch of money into government bureaucracies instead of pushing private companies to push the envelope of space exploration, like Trump has done an excellent job doing.
Wonder if that hard drive from Germany was sent to space station for safekeeping?
WTF is the deal with the door? Bad design or operator error?
The angle of the door has a reason, I forget, but I think Scott Manley on YouTube has a video on this topic.
Was for the space shuttle and the way it docked iirc.
It does, and he does.
What do you mean?

its nice to see everyone wearing their mask. oh so compliant.

Also helps that it’s a dud virus so there’s that too.
my thoughts: oh well.
That hair reminds me of one of the Pirates of the Caribbean characters' beards.
Also more than total number of ppl at Biden rally
