“Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary proof.” The very first pulsar discoverd was labeled “LGM-1" by the discoverers, because they thought that only an alien intelligence could build something that blinks so regularly. They were wrong, spinning an object that’s emitting a beam will do the exact same thing, and…

Oh, G!

It just goes around and says “I can’t accept that for pickup.”

Simple, swift and complete, like a Ms. Piggy karate chop.

By George I think he’s got it!

He says in a comment.

Photos. Juicy, juicy photos. It explains why he’s loyal to Putin and Flynn.

...and a star for you!

And a star for you....

The Constitution does NOT define what treason is in the US. It sets limits as to what it could be, and allows Congress to pass a law within those limits to make treason illegal. That’s it.

Sure.

“Torchinksy’s getting too close. Activate Contingency Omega.”

I’d give you a witty response but systemd won’t let me.

I really loved how after they went “pew” or “pew pew”, they’d then get a set of flags and wave them at the umpire at the other goal, who’d grab flags and wave back.

The reason for the very large cargo bay and the very large crossrange landing requirements both came from DOD. The cargo bay let them loft KH-9 sats, the crossrange meant they could theoretically take off from Vandenberg AFB, grab a sattelite, and then land back at Vandenberg after one or two orbits.

What killed MOL was simple. The idea of MOL was to have guys running the MOL as a huge recon spacecraft. Once someone realized you could build them a lot smaller (and thus cheaper) if you get rid of the men, MOL became useless.

Here’s the change.

I think even the successful ones are money-sucking. The Apollo-Saturn project had a bunch of concurrency, and it caused lots of problems during the program and there was nothing cheap about Apollo-Saturn.

And the US Navy knows this. Until very recently, all ship’s propulsion plants in the USN were “burn something to make a boiler hot, use the steam to drive something that drives the ship.” Some you drove a turbine directly, some used geared turbines, some drove massive generators to power large electric motors, but ALL…
