Augustus#0236: @Nyx.
Nyx.#0870: Oh? That's awesome.
Nyx.#0870: How did you *make* the mirror?
Pontus#7011: Do you guys think there will be any other space stations in the future? Orbiting other planets in our solar system? For example Mars.
Nyx.#0870: Depends on how far into the future you're talking about.
Pontus#7011... |
Augustus#0236: @Nyx. for making the mirror I recommend Build Your Own Telescope and The Dobsonian Telescope, both by Richard Berry
Nyx.#0870: Why's Moon a terrible place for a space station?
Augustus#0236: but you can check this out first http://www.bbastrodesigns.com/JoyOfMirrorMaking/JoyOfMirrorMaking.html
Nyx.#0870:... |
Nyx.#0870: @Augustus So, um, can we build stuff on the Moon?
Augustus#0236: of course
Pontus#7011: yeah
Pontus#7011: It's not like Jupiter xD

Pontus#7011: hmm
Augustus#0236: if NASA killed SLS/Orion and didn't spend as much on the ISS they might actually have money for probes to the outer solar system more often and to go to the Moon or Mars by using commerical capsules and boosters but building their own lander/transport vehicle, or just by buying BFRs/New ... |
Augustus#0236: @Deleted User No, Congress manages their resources for them
Augustus#0236: SLS doesn't exist to go to the Moon or Mars. It exists to keep shuttle jobs
Pontus#7011: Then rewrite them 😛
Augustus#0236: @Pontus Congress is corrupt as hell and actually doing things in space doesn't get votes

Pontus#7011: falcon heavy?
Augustus#0236: Also, each president looks good by saying we'll go to Moon/Mars/asteroid, but they can't fund it anyway so the program either gets killed by the next administration or morphs into a more corrupt and useless form thanks to Congress. That's how we got SLS - Obama killed Bush's pr... |
Augustus#0236: don't even get me started on the shuttle, if you think SLS is bad the Shuttle was actually worse and suffered from about the same delays
Augustus#0236: though it did cost less
