Mission: The Moon: develop a safe and livable environment, starting with safe and secure landings.

This is real astronautics

Why do we allow some people to say what not to say? Why?

[BOURNYBOY @BOURNYBOY76]

Ofcom have a list of 186 words you cannot say

Enjoy 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I wonder if that make it easier for agriculture on Mars

[European Space Agency @esa]

New research reveals vast clay deposits at our Rosalind Franklin rover landing site, pointing to a once water-rich Mars and strengthening the search for signs of past life.

En in a way, the 20% number is also a good indication of the tax on the environment. A minimum. Because, the extra power required must have led to more CO2 emissions.

Ireland 🇮🇪

Data centres used 22% of country’s electricity last year (more than all urban homes combined), pushing up household bills. The centres have drained €715m (£620m) from the Irish economy.

Nonsense, focus!, je moet diegenen die de samenleving hier niet erkennen, herkennen; die actief werken om het anderen onmogelijk te maken om zich prettig in Nederland te voelen, die lieden moeten eruit - of opgevangen in een gevangenis/kamp worden.

[Mona Keijzer @MonaKeijzer]

Wanneer ben je Nederlander? Dat gesprek moeten we voeren.

Een gezamenlijk paspoort alleen maakt geen samenleving. We hebben een gedeelde nationale identiteit nodig: vaste kern van waarden, normen en vrijheden die horen bij onze democratische rechtsstaat.

A birthright ownership with rights, income, etc. In a way Elon predicted this would happen. The future world will produce abundance and it will go to the people of the world. Not just America.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

I'll be introducing the American AI Sovereign Wealth Fund Act, a bill giving the public a direct stake to determine AI's future.

When a public resource generates wealth, the public should share in that wealth. https://t.co/pqlQyEKDKT

And of course, the risk of a big chunk falling down is also easier, kaboom. And why bring things back to Earth in the first place ? I get orbital factories, but those are weightless and need special manufacturing techniques. On the Moon not so.

[AstroForge @AstroForge]

Why asteroids instead of the Moon?

AstroForge President Robyn Ringuette explains to @NASASpaceflight why we're returning asteroid material instead of lunar mining.

[N Paul Kuin @npkuin]

@amazing_physics well, if the Earth is flat, why not?

[N Paul Kuin @npkuin]

@lidewij_devos @PimSedee @telegraaf 2/2 aangepakt worden. Die moeten weg. Die zijn niet geintegreerd. Aan de andere kant, discussie over wie nou echt nederlander is, is een non-issue; administratie. Vergeet de pennelikkers, concentreer of wat niet past in de samenleving.

[N Paul Kuin @npkuin]

@ajboekestijn De grootste problemen worden niet aangepakt omdat de discussie is merendeels over wat aanvaardbaar is en niet over wat dat niet is. Er zijn beslist zekere overtuigingen die on-nederlands zijn en die leven in grotendeels de immigrantens tweede generatie. Die moeten dus aangepak

[N Paul Kuin @npkuin]

@neerajjj6785 basic

@amazing_physics Sun: everyone can say it. It is the center of our world, and even nuclear energy is described as a Sun. The source of life, the bringer of a new day. The Sun. A city that is called Sun to bring a new life to Mars.

[Maziar @Muzyar]

UK universities could be saved from immediate insolvency for ~£1bn and have recent losses covered for ~£10bn: that is about a TENTH of the 2008 bank bailout and a HUNDREDTH of the backstop promised then. Yet there’s no bailout for one of the UK’s last real comparative advantages.

@China_TVv no, no limitations on freedom

[N Paul Kuin @npkuin]

@China_TVv yes

This might be useful for satellite repointing. The wear and tear may be less than when using momentum wheels. Or not. needs some investigation.

[谁是藏镜人 @VedaAI00]

计算几何与 3D 打印的结合，正在让那些曾在教科书中被判「死刑」的机械结构起死回生。

山形大学展示了名为 **ABENICS** 的主动球关节机制。这不仅仅是一个万向节，它通过极度复杂的「球面齿轮啮合」（Spherical Gear Meshing），在单个旋转点上实现了完整的 3D 自由度（俯仰、翻滚、偏航）控制。

这里的工程价值极具颠覆性：
1/ **高度集成化**。传统的双足或类人机器人，一个肩膀通常需要 3 个电机和 3 组关节堆叠。ABENICS 将其压缩进了一个单一的球体，极大缩减了机甲的物理体积和重量。
2/ **高扭矩与零漂移**。不同于依赖摩擦力或线缆驱动的普通球头，ABENICS 使用的是刚性齿轮啮合，确保了在高速、重载下的动力传输效率和定位精度。
3/ **几何驱动的创新**。这种结构的齿轮齿形分布在球面上，传统的减材制造几乎无法加工。它是典型的「增材制造专用设计」（DfAM），只有 3D 打印才能释放它的潜力。

当机械结构不再受限于制造工艺，机器人的「肉身」灵活度将迎来非线性爆发。

我是「谁是藏镜人」，专注于挖掘 AI 与底层机械工程演进的深度闭环。

De Amerikaanse overheid dwingt microsoft gegevens van Nederlandse ambtenaren door te spelen. De VS gebruiken alle gegevens waarover Amerikaanse bedrijven beschikken.
Dit betekent dat het laten migreren van DigiD en de berichtenbox naar de VS ongelooflijk dom en kortzichtig is. Dat moet het kabinet nu toch wel beseffen?

The US message is : go work abroad you Aliens ! No brains will be left untouched here.

[Kirill Sokolovsky @kirxkirx]

The absence of US embassy (the embassy is there, it's just not doing consular services for ordinary people) is not even the biggest problem for those who would need to return to Russia under this new policy.
