thanks! do you know if it's cooled via heat exchange with the LOX line on its way into the rocket-side tank? or, is it just cooled by LOX boiloff directed around the He delivery line?

we're already seeing leaked messages between the cabinet and GQP congresscritters. and yes, this fork of Signal purported to be able to comply with us govmt. record retention requirements. it is a gigantic shitshow.

so... i think there's some additional things going on here. the tank is in contact with LOX (90-55 K), and it's unclear what temp the He is coming in at, but the pressure inside the tank is always going to be less than the pressure inside the fill line (otherwise there's no fill), and if the He...

pretty sure the judge isn't focusing on the torrenting at the moment because that act doesn't fit within the plaintiff's complaint. it's likely either a criminal charge, or a separate cause of action, and i doubt that the plaintiffs want to restart with an amended complaint. the torrenting...

wait until you realize how large the ISS's heat radiators are... no. not in any proximity to the earth. and, if you're further away, your shielding needs go way up... which makes the whole project ridiculous.

is there an expanded description of what the surge was, or how it was caused by the dual-engine Centaur?

i'm surprised no one has mentioned launching from Panama. ;)

ice inside the line is a bit problematic. that usually means they didn't have the right gas available to purge the line before cold gas was expelled, or they had a leak to atmosphere that was dragging air back into the line - pressure oscillations can happen where you get negative pressures in...

you guys have to push back when someone (the article writer, or whoever they're quoting) mixes measures like this. it's disingenuous, and it's something an editor should flag.

not sure if you've checked out the auto-generated captions for youtube, twitter, and facebook videos, but they absolutely are not properly characterized as:

i wish this article and/or the linked consent decree discussed the bandwidths this is all relevant to.

can't tell how efficient it is without some indication of battery capacity (which i missed if it's in the article). looks nice, range is fine for the price.

oh, jeeze. the olds are out and about.

we were using stuff like these (14"?) at the USGS in the 80s https://www.ebay.com/itm/265837774402 i mean, they were kinda portable. those and the tape drives.

the crazy thing? there is free software available to image all type of disks (including 8", 5 1/4", 3 1/2", and CD, just need to read the disk) and mount the images as floppy or whichever drives in whatever drive letter you choose (that isn't already in use). and, you can use that software in...

is it fair to ask the stranded astronauts what they prefer? do they feel too much pressure from the interests wanting starliner to return home with humans aboard? i wouldn't want to put pressure on them, but at the same time, i want to trust them more than those with less actual skin in the...

good, fairly complete article. thanks!

it doesn't forbid non-editorial sales. it indicates that future access to the remote site may be evaluated based on the availability of non-editorial sales. so, at least in the case you mentioned, a staff photographer who retains their copyrights after a license to their employer expires could...

they keep raising prices well above the inflation rate and well above their maintenance/upgrade costs. it's just ridiculous.

your 2.23miles/kWh seems wrong, or maybe just super surprising. my much much smaller i3 gets roughly 3.2miles/kWh, for 15kWhrs/day over my commute, and i calculated the Hummer EV would take ~65kWh/per day to commute (0.77miles/kWh). how can just the tires get 1.5miles/kWh better mileage? the...
