rokker yeah the modern B-52H has a lot lower capacity because of extra fuel and a butt-tun of ECM gear
<Rokker>
Bornholio: I mean the original
<Rokker>
before the belly expansion
<Rokker>
Bornholio: I just met a special kinda stupid person defending China dumping spent stages on it's people
<Bornholio>
spent stages with hypergolics
<Rokker>
Bornholio: I suggested that even the fact that China doesn't include an abort system on their rockets displayed their lack of care for their people
<Rokker>
since FTS could have prevented Intelsat 708
<Rokker>
Bornholio: you ready to hear the reply I got back
<Rokker>
it's amazingly dumb
<Rokker>
"aborting" a launch is not something that is really possible. If you lose guidance, how are you supposed to guide the rocket away? At that point, it is just a flying dumb bomb filled with tons of toxic and explosive fuel. If you have a way to avoid losing a rocket if guidance fails, you NEED to go work at NASA, ESA, or any other space program, because we don't have one. Heck, the Russians had a rocket crash because they mounted a sensor upside
<Rokker>
down. It's called rocket science for a reason. It's pretty hard.
<Bornholio>
not really stupids as stupid does but go ahead
<Bornholio>
remind self flat earthers exist
<Rokker>
Bornholio: I just don't understand how you can be on a space subreddit and literally deny that abort capabilities exist
<Bornholio>
why would you blow up a rocket thats just dumb! :P
