Jews to own Moon


I will personally charge ya every time ya looks at it! (Bwah hah hah hah hah! $$$$$). Or you can look at this article.

Re: Jews to own Moon


The interview makes two interesting points.

One is tech - I think its cool to use the Earth as a slingshot to launch from LEO to the moon.

The article or another I looked at says that the Falcon will give it boost. Maybe - OK, almost certainly, that boost is what sends it to the moon. So maybe it is not a whiz bang slingshot orbit plan. But that fascinates me!

Managing precise propellant bursts so as to achieve orbits that accelerate the craft as it orbits, not by brute force "shooting backwards," but by altering the orbit precisely at various points to get orbital acceleration every one or two orbits.

Once enough orbital accel to reach lunar orbit is achieved, a burst needed to alter the trajectory from orbiting Earth to a Moon-orbital intercept. If inserted by Falcon in the right LEO, the exit burst could be made small.

if the Lunar orbit target point is a shallow curve away from the LE orbit it is on, and they can figure the most shallow possible - well, the more shallow, the less propellant needed.

I think that is really a cool idea. Right out of a sci fi novel to me. But I guess that will stay sci-fi for a while yet.

The other thing was the point about the "Apollo" effect. I have read about that. The idea to plan on a stimulus in STEM interest in aerospace interest is very reasonable.

Good luck to them!

"Lord, Bless us, everyone, Mr. Jew!" Tiny Spud

Actually as a species, we should all mine the moon and set up a entire world middle class. Engels and Marx were way wrong. It's the bourgeoisie that save everything by focusing on the good life, and that good life requires stability. All the roids for the past 4000 million years that have hit the moon, and likely many were type-S roids, would provide 10-15 billion people, living the life, O'reilly, just from lunar mining. $$$.

With this kind of wealth, even if robots take our jobs, nobody will notice. Well, at least, nobody important!

It's a tiny LEM with no astronauts :roar:

Oh well, I guess they have to start somewhere.

Hoo-Hah! We're out to do research, but instead, focus on fat people on earth, eating nachos, and doing the mining of this crap. Landed, over 4 billion years ago, waiting to be shipped to your door-or rather, some foundry on earth for components of a new industrial revolution.

Elements known to be present on the lunar surface include, among others, oxygen (O), silicon (Si), iron (Fe), magnesium (Mg), calcium (Ca), aluminium (Al), manganese (Mn) and titanium (Ti). Among the more abundant are oxygen, iron and silicon. The oxygen content is estimated at 45% (by weight).

Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) appear to be present only in trace quantities from deposition by solar wind.

Neutron spectrometry data from Lunar Prospector indicate the presence of hydrogen (H) concentrated at the poles.[1]

Another thing I like about this is that the "Apollo Effect" could have follow-on effects here.

Elon and Boeing could get boosts of energy.

Enough with Thai caves and Flint, Elon! Keep your eye on the ball, boy!

Yeah, Elon is making China Great again, Doc.

I don't trust the MF. However, space programs are money-driven, and as I pointed out, lots of asteroids, some of the Type-S, crashed on the Moon, over the last 4 billion years. Lots, so pick up your spoon and dig!

I use to think that was true, Spud, and my mouth drooled over the chance to mine those asteroids. Later I learned that all the craters were just electric scaring.

There is probably stuff on the moon that can be profitably mined, but I don't think it's going to be asteroids.

I have zero problem with this Redq. I am a Psyche-16 enthusiast. I think of it as a Trust Fund for our species and when the robots come to take our jobs, most will happily take the cash payout.

https://edgylabs.com/16-psyche-worth-10-quintillion

For an asteroid of this mass, it's guestimate worth is 10 Quintillion is cash dollars.

The rich will become maniacally, rich, and the world will be middle class, for the next 1000 years, I reckon. Middle class will be served by robot helpers we buy from the uber-rich. Not too shoddy.
