Trust me, I know what I am talking about. If mankind isn't able to take another step out there after 1969 and the Moon, then it is over. Things are done. The next antibiotics resistent STD will wipe out most of the Chads and Staceys and will only leave introvert betas who can't talk to each other. A generation later, Earth will be void of humans.

Well other than pushing for new antibiotics, nanites, better sex practices, and letting the virus spread until a natural immunity happens. The betas are less likely to breed as they die out.

Honestly this would probably be the best thing for society at this point, though I don't think it's remotely possible. If there was a disease that was killing everyone who got it, and quickly, all from fucking, people would surely stop sleeping around....right? Right guys?
At least I hope so anyways. Even if that where too happen, it would obviously wipe out africa and the third world first, the west would have plenty of time to get the "stop fucking" message.
But even if we don't, and we all die, there will still be the amish, and some other super conservative groups out there that rigidly enforce monogamy.

Make it just a regular disease and not a STD and then we are fucked.

>Mfw I literally know several SpaceX employees and they all told me the reason why Red Dragon was cancelled was because they forced NASA to get off their ass

Quick rundown. NASA was not going to go to Mars, even with the SLS. This is because NASA was not sure how many launches they could even afford with the SLS. NASA starts freaking out because they have too many projects for SLS but not enough money to launch them via SLS because SLS costs too much money. SpaceX meanwhile announces Red Dragon and starts pushing it with NASA gets scared that their giant rocket might be entirely useless and government might Shrek the guys in charge of the various NASA locales due to this blunder.

Instead they get all reactionary and tell SpaceX to leave all non-LEO work to NASA and that they can play around in LEO. Musk REEEEE's at this and announces the ITS. NASA freaks out even more and tells Musk to stop, they work out an agreement. He killed Red Dragon so the SLS can actually do something interesting other than just lift stupid satellites and other dumb shit. Meanwhile SpaceX gets to do the majority of the launches for NASA via F9 and FH. On top of their commercial launches. Meanwhile SpaceX can trim the fat on their projects and refocus on the ITS. Otherwise they would have had engineers and millions of dollars dedicated to missions and RND Musk doesn't care that much about in the long run.

The only thing I've ever gathered from the whole "Venus is better than Mars" thing is that Venus has a more Earth like gravity and that we could build floating cities on top of the 90x Earth atmospheres Venus has.

Of course the cities would have to be fucking corrosion proof since sulfuric acid is its equivalent of water there.
>>
>>134468714
>implying
If any of your blimps ever malfunction or get pierced and go down, that's it, everyone on board is instantly dead as they get crushed by the super hot, super dense atmosphere. Sky cities require consistent technology, this shit is currently scifi. You won't see Venus sky cities until you see Earth sky cities, and no one is even suggesting that shit.
>>134468553
These are big issues, but "humanity will never leave earth" is a facile statement. It's like saying "metal boats are impossible", "humans will never fly", "instant communication is impossible". The world has changed so much in 100 years. We can already identify solutions to these problems, it's just implementation. As long as we don't kill ourselves in the next 500 years it's physically possible.

>toxic salt & magnetosphere:
build structures dense enough to reflect cosmic rays, build over the ground. We can grow crops in spacestations already so clearly we can grow in terrestrial greenhouses. It wouldn't be an enjoyable life but it's possible.
>gravity
Gravity is a problem for sure for a bunch of reasons, like boiling points, air density, but none of these are fatal to humans. They're not optimal. You could live a shit life there if you worked out. But the main thing is.. Mars is just a stepping stone, you don't even need a permanent colony there, just a place where we can refuel etc. . Maybe we can think about terraforming when technology improves.

But if we can eventually crack fusion and make it small, it would potentially be possible to move to the outer reaches of the solar system and set up stations on moons.

desu I think it's way more likely that we will create AI that eventually goes out and explores the universe as it can operate at low temperatures. They can be our legacy. I don't really care if they kill us either.

They don't have any competition. ULA launches a few times a year these days and they are firing everyone they can. Even ULAfags are freaking out big time because ULA has no plans for reuse until TEN years from now. BO doesn't even have rockets. It will literally be another three to five years before they do a test launch. By then Musk will literally have two to three times as many employees as he does now, an even larger manu base, a series of private launch pads, and the constellation will be at least partially done. Things are even worse for his competitors overseas. Only China will be able to weather the storm because China doesn't care and they don't derive the majority of their funding from commercial launches like Ariane does for instance. Everyone else is already dead and the ESA knows it.

We're already capable of capturing asteroids and mining them hollow. From that point the most difficult aspect is populating the flora and fauna.

Everyone's all excited for other planets but I think asteroids will be the next huge leap in human development. There's already an enormous monetary incentive in the form of billions of tons of precious metals. One they're mined out we will have huge husks floating in orbit ready and waiting to become space colonies.

Generally, the geology, hydrology and costs don't support it.

>Geology and Hydrology
Cities are already very limited in how they can build based on the land geology - how much weight the underlying land and rock can support without subsidence and slipping. Hence why, besides zoning, the skyline over places like NYC is high in some places and dips low in other; where it is essentially drained marshland.
Very few cities are located in areas where there are large scale and highly stable rock strata with minimal compositional changes (i.e. inclusions, etc) - that's good enough for building but bad for underground excavation of that scale.
Then there's the water table. Cities are usually around rivers or other water supplies, meaning that below certain depths in the ground, water will seep into empty space through permeable rock and soil. Even rock houses above ground - carved out of boulders and into small cliffs - have similar problems with it after it rains, causing hard to control damp and mold growth.

Many non permeable rock formations are also radioactive, e.g. granite, uranium particles in which emit radon gas.
And itd be near impossible not to affect above ground buildings - the famous soviet town next to a diamond mine ended up killing the mine itself; the most rich prospecting samples came from underneath the town that had grown up on the hopes that the mine brought.

>Costs
It costs an absolute shit ton to excavate. Tunnel borers are extremely expensive, explosive excavation is still expensive and can end up shattering rock and destabilising it from the shock, gasses from the explosion permeating through the rock etc etc.
Hence why most mining and tunneling has a direct economic or strategic gain.

Then there's problems like ventilation, no natural light, damp-proofing, maintenance...

Last I knew, China was considering underground excavation in some areas of a Beijing replacement city, but they can only go down 30ft into the bedrock at most.

Educated guesses say that the dry mass of the first stage is about 7.7 tons.

Yeah, I'm aware of when that hit the news 5 years ago, and reading back when the article was released, 5 years ago, it's nostalgic.

Pay attention to
>the inaugural step, to be achieved in the next 18 to 24 months, would be launching the first in a series of private telescopes
Took 3 years for one test flight, the second hasn't gone up yet and its most of the way through 2017.
> One of the company founders predicts they could have their version of a space-based gas station up and running by 2020.
They have one cubesat testbed, never mind a constellation of proper satellites. Try 2030, or later.

Aerospace engineering industries are insanely conservative. To go from drawing boards to first fan blade off tests, the first big test for a plane engine, takes 5 years.
The further you lean towards space, the worse it gets.

This level of intense optimism, that everything in this industry is just around corner, is commendable, but it's destined to be wrong. Even Musk has to wind back his expectations.

The only company that hasn't fallen apart from their optimism was Bigelow Aerospace, putting together inflatable habitats

Take this analogy.
The first men into space, then to the moon were like the 10th century vikings and their shortlived colonisations.
Over 500 years later, Columbus went to the Americas, just as we return to space.
It took another 100 years for the first successful colony in the Americas, another hundred for colonial America to takehold. That's the point that your beliefs are at.

It's going to take a lot of time.

That were based on licensed NASA tech, had a few successful examples, one went on the ISS, and they had to shutter their offices, factory and lay off over half the staff several years ago.

There just wasn't a launch system with the payload capacity for them. They're still waiting for Falcon Heavy.

We can make a nice little self sustainable bubble if we wanted to, but the first accident that happens and can't be resolved without a three month trip from Earth will kill everyone inside and public support for planetary missions will vanish.

And after that, there's not much else to do. We can't leave the solar system. There's no exceeding light speed. None of the bullshit math people have been working to try and justify faster than light travel could ever actually move something larger than an atom, if it works at all. Even at light speed powered by fusion, interstellar travel would involve sleeping for centuries at a time and hoping the ship doesn't degrade in the mean time. This universe wasn't made for us, and for all the harping about how perfectly everything lined up for us to evolve, it's actually got pretty shitty long term prospects for intelligent species.
The only place you'll go to the stars will be in VR. Maybe machines will do it for real, but they won't consider themselves our property at that point.

14And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 15And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

Those things actually weigh a fuckton more than the rockets do, AND won't slow the impact down enough to prevent injury.

The air cushion thing works on secured robots, not humans.

It also isn't tenable for high mass landings. The forces are too great and the thing pancakes itself.

The largest thing landed on mars masses ~1 ton, and that required:
Aerobrake
Drogue chutes
Parachutes
Rockets
Skycrane

>So Otus and Ephialtes set off for Olympus, planning to crush the Gods before them and set themselves up as the new rulers of the world. During their seige they locked up Ares in a little bronze jar for 13 months. They had taken over Olympus soon, and there appeared to be no hope for the Olympians. During a break in the battle, Otus and Ephialtes called for Hera and Artemis repeatedly. Time after time they were refused, until at last, miraculously, the Goddesses accepted. Or rather, Artemis did. Hera still refused vehemently. Artemis went to Otus, and said if he would let out Ares, he could do with her what he would. Otus was ecstatic, but Ephialtes wasn't too happy. The brothers began to quarrel, and when they weren't looking Artemis turned into a deer. When the fighting reached a peak, she sprang between them as a white doe. Both men broke off and threw their spears at the lovely creature, but they were so distracted, and she was so fast, that the spears missed. Not only did they miss, but Artemis had set them up so that when they threw what was actually impaled was the brothers.

>Otus and Ephialtes accomplished what none of the Gods could do, they killed each other.

Because it would probably be a lot cheaper to just start another war (which is what globalists do now) or even to just hire a nigger to shiv you on the way home. Space travel right now is extraordinarily fucking expensive because nobody does it on a regular basis or mass produces the parts, or builds jumbo rockets. I'd be unhappy because the lag to Mars is 4 minutes at it's closest Earf approach and 24 at it's furthest. Normal interaction with anyone but my fellow crew/colonists wouldn't be tenable.

I've never said anything about the firmament, subconsciously or not you are straw manning me.

I doubt anything could be said to convince you today, but I would ask you to reflect on your reaction to FE and how unnecessarily vitriolic is. Like atheists vs God, why the fuck do you care SO much?

There are communities dedicated to big foots and UFO, do you participate in those conversations?

Do you confront curries and try to tell them they are not real animals?

Something psychologically draws you to this discussion, and yet it is only negative emotions that reveal themselves.

Such is cognitive dissonance. This is not to say that you are actually wrong in the end, but that your thinking process is muddled in a destructive way.

Whether you like it or not, there is a profit angle that must be taken into account when it comes to megaprojects like space elevators, beyond-Earth colonization, interplanetary travel, etc. You need to convince companies or governments that there is a reason for them to expend their limited money and resources in the service of a project, and "because we can" is not usually good enough for anybody. Musk does it because he thinks we must to survive, the government has abandoned space because there's no real competition from foreign superpowers and they really don't give a shit about the long term survival of the species because their primary concern is dodging prison while making a shitton of money.

If there's an antarctic wall at the edge of the flat earth you should be able to look over that edge and see space just like looking over a fence and seeing the other side.

Firmament is a religious thing. I don't see how this is so hard though.

People loved it when simulation theory was a popular meme. It was unprovable and irrelevant, and still lead to an enormous amount of discussion with little to no instances of "YOU ARE ALL INSANE THE WORLD IS REAL STOP TALKING ABIUT SIMULATIONS REEEEEEE HUMANS ARE SO STUPID"

To me, FE is an extension of simulation theory, minus hubris. Essentially taking thenconcept of ST and recognizing that, as with humans, fictional simulations are likely more common than perfect mathemematical representation of reality.

When there is a planet in a simulation, regardless of how it is rendered, it is neither round nor flat, but a collection of qualia for which we try to deduce structure.

I enjoy the discussion because it focuses on these qualia, regardless of which structure other people apply to it.

That said, I understand why this discussion is important to the underdog with evangelist fervor, but whatnot earth would the topic matter so much to one such as yourself?

I think I know the answer, but you should probably consider it yourself.

Yeah like I said, the atmosphere refracts light, that's why you can see over the horizon.

Additionally, my home telescope is a passive device that lets me see the planets, that P900 image is produced by electronics. Regardless, the P900 probably creates better images in reality, that image looks very fake. The Mars/Jupiter/Saturn I see through my telescope, are the same objects NASA release images of.

If you are worried about who telescopes are "made by" then you can shape your own lenses and make your own telescope. If you lived in the UK I would let you come and look through my telescope and take it apart to prove every piece of it is inanimate

The problem with Titan is that it's the size of earth, which means a hell of a gravity well and it also has a thick freezing atmosphere.

>24 hours with no weather: the gif

Cmon man, that's all it takes for you to believe?

Also, still utterly failing this entire "using your brain" thing. You are imagining a flat disc floating through space with stars and planets revolving around it. Looks stupid right? That's because you are stupid, it's a model tha thinly you are using which you built to fail.

But your shitty model failing doesn't give you the right to disregard other models.

Understand the model, dismantle from within.

Misunderstand the model, waste time.

>one launch, on camera to prove it

And all of us would love to see it, honestly! We just are not allowed to do it because... Reasons... That are never explained.

Let's get some more space imagery out of you! Find me a convincing earth snapshot or another hilarious animation.

yeah and theres also literal monsters living right under you some of which are over 8 feet tall and poisonous and also the land beyond the ice wall is an endless plain of primordial chaos with creatures as tall as skyscrapers with raging volcano that never sleep and out of control plant life.

goyim,

if you are spinning on a blue cartoon ball and flying thru so-called space... why are the star patterns up above the same for 1000's of years. wake up goyims, you have been jewed down to cattle

>no weather
What, exactly, do you think those white things are?
How about those white spirally things?
Are you familiar with what the word "weather" even means?
>Understand the model, dismantle from within.
Give me your model. I'll dismantle whatever it is.
All it takes is a sextant.
>We just are not allowed to do it because... Reasons... That are never explained.
Still zero proof of this claim.You keep saying it because haven't once tried to prove it.
Reminder: Antarctica is a LITERAL TOURIST DESTINATION

Sigh, okay here is my argument: how can the sun's radius be greater than its distance from earth?


Stupid fucking argument, right? That's because I mixed opposing structure of two similar qualia as you have continuously done. Reading that sentence to you is how your arguments sound to me, aborted models that no one follows because they are self-contradictory.

So we could exchange aborted nonsense models that neither of us believe in or we could actually have a discussion.

Or, as noted, you could prove you think we are all hopeless idiots by treating us as such.

I don't understand why one would seek out and engage in debate with people They view as hopeless idiots; to what end?

Who is more broken? The one entertained by being wrong or the one who can not even fathom being incorrect?

also dont be deceived jupiter and saturn actually look like they said they do but theyre still 2d lights on the firmament and not planets

you can zoom in on them with a camera when theyre supposedly a lot farther away than the maximum zoom on the camera

So are you going to give me your model to dismantle or what?
You can't claim to be right and fear criticism int he same breath.
>I don't understand why one would seek out and engage in debate with people They view as hopeless idiots; to what end?
Some of us argue for the truth, not just to prove to ourselves that we're right.
I argue with conspiritards like you because maybe one day one of you will provide a real argument and change my world view. So far I have never encountered anything close to that because all of your models fall apart under basic scrutiny.

I would say a bug. Flat or round, there is no reason for that plane to be there on its course.

I would say my best evidence is flight paths arranged by profit seeking companies, emergency groundings, and the mechanics of flight instruments.
A good way to test this would be to get whatever map is your favorite model and compare it to the model placing the North Pole at the center. Prediction is that the further south the paths are/begin/end, the more eccentric they will look on your map. Paths on my map should be consistent in design regardless of takeoff or landing.

So test your own predictions and see how they measure up. Grab a globe and a UN flag and try to predict how a ruthless profit-driven capitalist would direct the flight to maximize profit.

Now, could you give me something terrestrial that you think your model predicts better than mine?

>>134494883
Not sure what you are communication here, that flight has no business being that ridiculously far south, its path should have taken it northwest not southwest.
