Also significant price difference, even after the 10 grand in gas savings they claim. (insert joke about hellcat gas mileage here)

As an engineering student in Canada we are forced to use both systems, and I can’t remember how many times I have been frustrated by this. We also have to deal with pounds force, which if I remember right is: mass *gravity/ dimensionless constant that is equal in value to acceleration due to gravity. I hate that…

Under a car? That is me every time I pick up a wrench or ratchet.

Holy slippery slope fallacy Batman!

Just call a nuke a nuke. The Air Force just dropped an expensive and inevitably useless nuke in the Nevada desert.

Ok, fair enough. I leave mine on because I find it lets me see the winter roads better at night and never really bother to turn them off. I think for most people the don’t see a benefit to turning them off so they don’t.

So?

Why? I have never seen any bright enough to bother any one.

Yes, but to glaze over that and tons of other things does s discoverer to is misinforming.

Please man, as an engineer don’t tell this guy he has any idea what he is doing.

I’m no rocket scientist

Its like saying: Hey, lets take the one good thing about this part, and throw it in the garbage.

This has slightly more facts then your space shuttle article the other day. Good job.

I don’t think so. Or like the SSMEs.

So, the SRBs do most of the heavy lifting to get to orbit, and the three main engines take over to do the last leg, acting as a sort of second stage.

Interesting that Zach Eakin would mention FSAE. I was at the Michigan competition in May and had him as a design judge. Really cool guy, didn’t get a chance to talk to him one on one.

Ok, fair enough.

I may be wrong (and/or beating a dead horse), but is it not designed and built by Multimatic in Ontatio Canada?
