YouTube - 300m hop test of Newline Baby reusable rocket from LinkSpace China
<Althego>
unlike ula, they understand this is the future
<Mat2ch>
Liny still has not 100k subs? How is that possible?
<Mat2ch>
Unlike Arianespace...
<Althego>
yes that too
<Althego>
they are still building the ariane 6
<Althego>
which is a good rocket, by a decade old standards
<Mat2ch>
well, they try to go reusable for Ariane 7, but they are moving so slow
<Mat2ch>
like if they're still using drawing boards...
<Althego>
at this point that is a lost art :)
<Althego>
same for slide rule
<Mat2ch>
and I have another problem with ESA. They're publicly funded, but you get only occasional updates and insights. And on the other side is SpaceX, which are pretty open in what they are doing
<Althego>
there are a buch of people filming them voluntarily :)
<Mat2ch>
well, the people working at ESA may be still using drawing boards actually...
<Althego>
i mean spacex
<Althego>
dont think so
<Mat2ch>
Don't underestimate the amount of old people there...

<Althego>
hehe
<Althego>
but then somebody needs to move that drawing int o cad to integrate with the others
<Althego>
that would require 2 people
<Althego>
i would expect this much from germans
<Althego>
but i guess ariane is mostly french
<Althego>
germans, because "this is the way we have always done it"
<flayer>
oh nice, china's halfway there!
<Althego>
this is where spacex was a few years ago
<Althego>
they are still ahead of anybody else
<flayer>
i expect china to walk on the moon using reusable launches before the decade is out
<Althego>
in this pace, possible
<packbart>
what's so interesting about the moon, though?
<Althego>
first, it is not earth
<Althego>
second easier to go to orbit
<packbart>
hm. I've read arguments that going anywhere from earth orbit or from the moon's surface doesn't make much difference. I'm not a rocket scientist, obviously :)
<Althego>
but obviously mars is way better
<Althego>
still didnt give up on venusian cloud cities
<Althego>
sounds nice, but what could you do there floating in the clouds?
<Althego>
wait for a black masked guy to appear? (i have altered the deal)
<UmbralRaptop>
In the present epoch, everyone wears a mask though
