Artemis splash down

[indykid]

Newtons laws state......

Which ones?

 

[Other Daniel]

Yes unapologetically a FE

The above situations occur in atmospheric environment not in a negative vacuum environment, in a negative environment you have too equalise pressure before
a positive thrust pressure can occur, give an example how this is not correct.

Then, you mean a pressured environment ?

I've just worked out who @dobbslc has blocked!

You don't give up!
But nope it's not him.

I’ll have a go at that.

In a previous life I used to be involved in parachuting. We used to have contests with “self opening crisps” - ie we would put a packet on th side and see what cabin altitude they exploded at. Not quite a vacuum but in some cases very very low pressure. I can confirm the crisps ejected themselves from the packet once it burst. Not unlike a rocket.

Oh really? So how do you "equalise pressure" if nothing can move until you equalise pressure?

So basically it's all down to the flavour of the crisps as to whether we get to mars or not. Thinks ! Do Mars sell crisps and, if so, are we all unwittingly being used as testers for a future space exercise in limited resource wastage.

Are we better off using the old school salt and shake style

Or maybe twiglets will be the better option

A question for @Maxakarudy
How long is the lunar node cycle where the moon's orbit intersects the ecliptic, the plane of Earth's orbit around the Sun?

If you've been living under a rock and haven't heard.....
We flat earthers understand the Earth is the centre of the universe, the sun & the moon are not millions of miles away, but where your eyes see them
just a few miles away from the ground we stand on, the flat level, non rotating one, with stars rotating around the north star, the same stars we have mapped
for millenia that tell us what time & season it is.
Hope this helps

Do you have a telescope? Or a pair of binoculars? You will clearly see the moon is a sphere!
How far away do you think the moon is?
Serious question.

Not a far as politions are from reality.

I don't have a tape measure long enough, so your guess is as good as mine.
This sphere..... that shows the blue sky through it and not being fully spherical

No but we do have laser tape measures that can bounce a beam off it.

“Through” it? You sure?

 

[Popcorn]

Think the clangers had something to say about all this way back

 

[qwakers]

i invite all members to refer to popcorn's signature.

 

[badabec]

I think we should get back to aeroplanes and treadmills.
Or even, Artemis II.

So if we are all standing on a flat surface...what stops us all floating away?

Back to space stuff....when is the next starship test launch, I always enjoy those.
