@Ramandu_Star@DA_Stockman Being able to make a Little Man style bomb is pointless today. It doesn’t even the reach the threshold of being a weapon. There is no bomber in the Iranian Air Force that can drop a 5 ton bomb. Any delivery attempt would get shot down with a MANPAD.
@mgr_au@bruce_barrett@NASA@NASAArtemis@SpaceX LEO isn’t the only earth orbit, and the moon itself is completely within earth’s gravitational influence, your AI’s summary not withstanding. Try asking it: what is required to exit earth’s orbit (answer: attaining escape velocity), and; did Artemis 2 attain it (answer: no).
@poemsforcheetos@itsBriantime2@bruce_barrett Also incorrect. It has nothing to do with heat generation or velocity upon atmospheric reentry. The real reason is because error margins on the ocean are much higher. No need to constrain a tight circular area probable. The Russians routinely landed on landed right from the start
@itsBriantime2@bruce_barrett This is nonsense. The Artemis capsule doesn’t need the ocean water to cool it. It’s already cold from the air flow. If it was hot, the flotation air bags would melt!
@mgr_au@bruce_barrett@NASA@NASAArtemis@SpaceX Artemis was within the earth’s orbit the entire time too. Never hit escape velocity. The Russians used to land on land. It has nothing to do with how fast the craft was traveling in outer space.
@ahhusername@__Injaneb96 People don’t get out of needing to earn respect just because there’s a few of them. Brown yodeling is hella gay and you should feel stupid for doing it.
